A REMARKABLE CASE.

To save himself from further black
mail by inscriptions persons familiar
With his secret, Robert f. Wolfe, the
millionaire shoe manufacturer of Column
bus, o., has through his attorney, e. N.
Higgins, published to the world the
story of his imprisonment in the Indiana
penitentiary. At the age of 10, in de-
Tense of the honor of cousin. he at
tackled storekeeper in Cataract, Ind,
and was sent to Jail. Soon after, in at
tempting to escape, he assaulted the
sheriff, and on the charge of attempting
to kill the latter he was condemned to
the penitentiary for five years. He
admits the assault but denies the at
tempt to kill. In the penitentiary he
learned how to make boots and shoes
and when released at the age of % he
made his way to Columbus with cob
bler's kit. Having no money he at
tempted to pawn this and was arrested
on suspicion of theft. He began work
at the bench, but lost place after place
as his history became known. Finally
he went to the owner of large factory,
asked for work, and frankly told of his
incarceration and its cause. The manu-
facturer, a man of kind heart and good
sense, answered that it was the future
and not the past that was important,
and after admonishing him to so conduct
himself as to deserve confidence, EN-.
ployed him. Young Wolfe proved
worthy. He rose step by step till he
became the head of the establishment,
and to-day he is the president of Wolfe
Bros. Shoe company of Columbus, and
of the National Shoe company, with
headquarters in Boston, and the master
of a great fortune. In publishing his
story to rid himself of the wretches who
were using their knowledge of his secret
to extort hush money from him he acted
wisely. Those who shall read the story,
and whose good opinion is worth hav-
ing, will think more of him. The grand
est character in ali fiction is portrayed
in Hugo's "Les Miserables." Between
Jean Vatican and Robert F. Wolfe there
is close analogy. The fanciful has it's
counterpart in the real. The ignominy
of each had its origin in an impulse
creditable to human nature, and the
similitude is maintained in the industry,
financial success, charity and benevo.
lence Of their post-prison careers. Suf-
fering developed the nobility of both,
and the after lives of exalted purpose
and honor efiaced the early stigma of
disgrace. To the prison-t tainted every

ply wholesome incentive to loftier
thinking and better dolng.-Dubuque

Too Many Divorces.

The Ottumwa Courier says that Wap-
clio county and the state of Iowa are
disgraced because ffty-one suits for
divorce are on the docket there for the
October term of the district court. Con-
tinuing the Courier says:
Gone of the most salutary pieces of
legislation the coming session could
adopt would be the enactment of
amendments making far more severe the
conditions under which, and far more
strict the terms on which legal separa-
ton should be allowed by the courts.
Too many of our Divorce actions are by
agreement Of husband and wife. AS an
experiment they entered into matri-
mony; finding its restrictions irksome,
or their choice Of a companion not con-
genial, they likewise agree to resume
single blessedness, which they secure
through the vicious tolerance of indiffer-
ent legislation loosely interpreted by the
courts. Homes are thus blasted; chill
dren deprived of parental control; mar
riaee too lightly esteemed; and there
follows a long train of attendant evil
influence socially, financially and educa.
tionally. A frmer hand should guide
the social life of the state"
