AN ALMOST FORGOTTEN SHORTAGE.
Eaby Leland and Mamma Are Awaiting His
Rsum and Restoration |, Society "A Geot
Position Awaits Him.

Petersburg, Va. June 26.-With the
stain upon his honor wiped away for
ever. Professor A. NJ. Hughlet is has
tening homeward fast as train can
come from San Francisco. where he
has been living incognito for two years.
But though he comes upon limited
train. his pace seems slow to the de-
voted wife who has waited with un-
shaken confidence for his return.
For ten years Professor Hughlett
had been the principal and business
manager of the Randolph Macon acad-
emy. a school at once famous and sue
cessful. He was a man of splendid tai
ents. commanding, tactful. and full Of
the magnetic qualities which win conf
dence and esteem. He managed the A.
nances of the institution, and in time
the auditing committee asked no ques-
tions, but accepted the simple word OF
Professor Hugnlett tnat ali was right.
Five years ago he married Miss Kit
tie Bradbury. the daughter of "a rich
and prominent citizen, who amply dow
cred her. Their union was happy one.
A daughter Leland. was born four
years ago.
She was two years old when the crash
came. II was the old. familiar one. The
professor had specuated, borrowed
from the funds intrusted to him--lost.
When he fed from the city and the
state there was a shortage of $4,000
in his accounts.
SHORTAGE MADE UP:
The defalcation was a ten days SEN
sation. The trustees of the academy
met to determine what course to take.
They were loath TO hire detectives. The
father-in-law met them and handed
them a check for $4,000. Ii was then
resolved, out of pity for the wife and
child, to let the matter drop. An
other principal was hired, and the
school went on the next fall as usual.
In time the matter passed out of the
peoples memories.
The fact that the elder Bradbury had
made restitution was duly chronicled.
IL reached the eyes OF the wanderer.
He knew that he might safely return.
But he made no sign. He had gone to
the Pacific slope, and under a new
name he began life over again.
He had but single object in Iife--to
earn the money he had taken and re-
store IL to it's rightful owners. With
night, concentrating his splendid tai
ents on the endeavor. and in two years
almost TO a day, he had achieved IL.
A MESSAGE OF LOVE.
Then and not tin then he wrote to his
wife
II have $4,000 in bank. Shall send
II or bring it?"
And the. reply which went flying
across the continent on wings of fire
was very short, but II spoke volumes:
Come back.
BABY LELAND and MAMMA"
Professor Hughlett earned the money
by teaching. He had a position in the
Stanford University gave private les
sons to backward students of means
and ran a large night class.
In the fall he will go to a college IN
Tennessee, where good position has
been offered him.
