came involved in trouble, the secret OF
which he never divulged: He left his

went West, and amassed considerable
money. Finally he gathered together his
belongings and started for Muncie. Little
did he expect that he would find his wife
there, but inquiry proved that she was
employed as a domestic in the family OF
John Max. Wilson went to the Max
home and raped on the rear door. 10
his amazement his wife answered the
knock. Mrs. Wilson threw her arms
about her husbands neck and cried hys-
terically. Wilson, his wife and daugh-
ter are now comfortably situated in lit

Unsettled Weather Curtai1s Distribu-
ton and Retards Speculation.
Bradstreet's says: unsettled weather
conditions have operated to curtail retail
and jobbing distribution this week, and
impaired a quieter tone to several lines
indirectly associated Herewith. Stock
speculation, too, has been less rampant,
and last weeks record of bank clearings
has, therefore, not been equaled. There
Is, however, little or no apparent loss OF
basic strength, and, indeed, the general
level Of staple prices has been slightly
advanced. This latter movement is most
notable in the iron and steel trades, in
raw cotton and to lesser degree in the
cereals and some hog products. Wheat,
including -four, shipments for the week
aggregate 3,S27,296 bushels, against
4,O62, O2O last week. Corn exports for
the week aggregate 5,235,56S bushels,
against 3,976,914 last week.

The one central figure in European pol
itics last week is Paul Kruger, president
OF the Transvaal republic. He is an un-
couth, almost unlettered, Boer, bent with
age. He is the president of a republic
that has been beaten into the earth by
the iron heel of British army 2OO, 900
strong and commanded by the greatest
military leader of the old world The
Boer army is scattered. Sixteen thou
sand Boer soldiers are prisoners at St.
Helena, in Ceylon, OF in Cape Town. The
rest, broken up into guerrilla bands, are
being driven from shelter to shelter in
the Transvaal or the Orange Free State.
Ihe Boer women and children have been
driven from their farms to the smaller
towns and from the smaller towns to the
larger cities. There is nothing left Of
the Boer republic but the name and Pres
ldent Kruger. What will Europe do with
Kruger! Is he an element of danger to
England! These are questions being ask
ed by thinking men in England as well
as on the continent. Apparently Kruger's
only hope far assistance lies in the
French people, and President Loubet and
his premier, Waldeck- Rousseau, are evil
IDENTITY determined that even the yolatil-
ism of the French people shall not SWAY
the government hairs breadth from an
attitude absolutely correct toward Great
Britain. But if the French excess of en-
thusiasm for Kruger can be turned into
q political channel and the Waldeck-
rousseau ministry be overturned, the sit
uation might take on an altogether DIFF
Ierent aspect. 1t is fairer to assume that
Kruger IS making final effort to secure
through diplomacy, that pressure ON Eng
land that may compel the British gov
eminent, from motives Of self-interest
alone, to grant at least autonomy TO the
