NEW YORK. August "a cable To
the Sun from London says: Had Rob-
ert Louis Stevenson lived he would
have seen this week one of his coun-
trymen give dramatic reality to his
"Jekyll and Hyde" creation. James
Colquhon, LII. D., City Treasurer Of
Glasgow, deacon of the Free Church
and representative of the City Corpor-
alton on University court, is now in
Jail charged with defalcatiOns, which
moderate estimate puts at $l,0OO,OO0
For several years ColquhOn has been
concealing his defalcations by paying
interest in alleged investments which
he never made. Many widows had in
trusted their entire property to him be
cause of his high public position. His
fellow councillors at first thought of
subscribing the amount to conceal the
scandal until they learned the vast
ness of Colquhon's entertainments and
the wreckage of his fortune.
He has a wife and family. 1t is stat
ed that some years ago he won $1,000
at Monte Carlo and since then gave
way to gambling mania.

ATTEMPTED BURGLARY.

About one O'Clock on Wednes day
night John Russell heard a noise and
thought that some one had entered
bis store and got up to investigate, and
he aud his wife looked all about but
s.1 no one. John ther raised the
window and looked around but saw
no one. He knew nothing further
until next morning.. 1t was discovered
on Thursday morning that some one
had taken an augur and bored q hole
in the back door of Mr.. A. B. Cath
CARTS store. The hole was bored just
above the bar thai goes across ths
door. AS no one had entered the
store it is supposed that the burglar
was frightened away By hearing John
Russell moving about in the adjoining
house. The burglar left behind him
the tools that he had used 10 bore the
hole with. t. is a pity that those who
are guilty Of the many burglaries that
have been committed lately should be
allowed to 60 free, for the attempts
at burglaries are becoming more fire.

AN ENJOYABLE OCCASION.

Among the many pleasant hostesses
for which Winnsboro is renowned,
Mrs. William Davis Douglass deserves
prominent mention. An afternoon
tea given by her on January 26th, as
sisted by Misses Dwight and Allston,
proved one Of the raoss delightful
social functions of the new year. The
informally of a formal tea was most at
tracti7e to the many friends who re-
sponded to their invitations, and we
are sure pleasant memories will long
