Clearing O Mystery.

The first trace of Mrs. John G..
Burns since her disappearance from
a Chicago hotel two years ago was
found last week when James Taylor,
a negro, was arrested at Cincinnati.
He had in his possession, Mrs. Burns
Daughter Of the American Revolution
pin, engraved with her name, as we'll
as several articles Of jewelry which
bore initials. The prisoner is said to
have disclosed the hiding places of
other Jewels, which are alleged to
have been the property Of Mrs. Burns.
The total value Of the property re-
covered is nearly $4,000. About two
years ago, Mrs. Burns announced that
she was going away on short visit.
Her husband was believed to be in
Europe. Taking several trunks, but
leaving many of her belongings in her
room, Mrs. Burns left the hotel CIV
ing instructions to hold mail until
she sent her forwarding address. From
that day to this no word has been re-
ceived from her or her husband. Mrs.
Burns was prominent as a member of
the Daughters Of the American
Revolution, and also was connected
with several women's clubs, most of
the organizations to which she belong
ed having been located in the East,
where she resided before coming to
Chicago.

Stole the Mormon's Wives.

Prospectors from the lower Sierra
Madre Mountains of Mexico, south
west of Ell Paso, bring the story Of a
raid made by Guam Coloroda, alais
John Redhead," upon Don Felipe,
a newly formed Mormon colony. The
noted bandit and his band pillaged
the settlement, carrying away three
of Elder Hiram Johnson's wives, one
of which is the favorite of his large
household. A posse Of Mexican rural
police and squad of Mormons, who
as a vigilance committee, style them
selves 'avenging angels" pursued the
bandits for thirty-six hours and final
ly surprised them in the fastness of
the Sierra MaGra Mountains. A fight
took plack in which two Of the out
laws were wounded. The band fled,
leaving the women. They had been
kept two days in a cave, where con-
siderable amount Of bullion treasure
was found, which, it is believed, was
tolen from a pack train recently.

SHOT BY CONSTABLES.
They Were Assaulted by One White
Man and Two Negroes.

A dispatch from Charleston to The
State says NJ. S. Sullivan, lineman
of the Postal Telegraph company, was
shot and seriously, perhaps fatally,
wounded in an affray with State Con-
stables J. T. Owens and @. It. Hud-
son, which occurred Thursday night
on the steam launch Hornet, between
IL and u o'clock on the cove beach at
Mount Pleasant. The shooting grew
out of the capture Of contraband IL
quor which Sullivan was conveying
from the Clyde wharf to storehouSe
on the water front. Two negro men
were with Sullivan at the time, one Of
whom, it is said, was also wounded by
the constables. Their names could
not be learned, for neither has
been seen since the affair. Both ne
groeS fled from the boat, it is said,
when the shooting commenced.
1t Is not positively known which
constable shot Sullivan. At the st.
Francis Xavier infrmary Thursday,
Sullivan, it is alleged, stated that
he was shot by Constable Owens and
that the negro was shot by Constable
Hudson. Sullivan is thought to be in
critical condition. He was brought
to the city Thursday about 3
a. m. and sent to the mfr nary. An
operation was performed upon him
and it was found that the ball had
passed through his left arm, entered
the side and perforated the intestines
in six different places. The bullet
was not located.
ConStables Hudson and Owens ar
rived in the city this morning at $50
o'clock with 10 gallons OF wAiSkey,
which they had captureu from the
Hornet, Sullivan's launch, having
hired a row boat at Mount Pleasant
and rowed the goods over to Charles
ton. Chief Constable Holmes was
Immediately notified of the shooting
OF Sullivan and the capture OF the L.
quor. Chief State Constable Hammet
was informed Of the shooting early
Friday morning by Constable Holmes
and he is expected in the city soon
to make an Investigation. ConSta-
bleS Owens and Hudson, acting upon
the advice Of Constable Holmes, sur
rendered to Sheriff Martin about II
o'clock Thursnay and were sent to
iail to await further Developments.

A Mystery Explained.

The Retailer and Advertiser says
even the casual observer who walks
through the retail districts of New
York during the holiday season can
scarcely fail to be impressed with the
almost phenomenal difference in the
amount Of business done in the vari-
GUS stores. He will notice that one
store seems to be constantly crowded
with customers, that the salespeople
are working to the limit of their en-
durance and that the delivery wagons
are kept busy at night and day dis
tributing the goods sold. In another
store in the same block, perhaps next
door, he will observe that there is
practically nothing doing" This
store is quite as attractive as the
other store. 1t handles the same
lines and qualities Of goods, and per-
haps they come from the same man
ufactoreS. The prices are equally
low, and the clerks are courteous and
attentive. But there is much small
ler staff of salespeople employed, and
even during the holiday rush they are
not kept busy. Why is there such a
remarkable difference? I have taken
the trouble to investigate the problem
and have made careful observations
in dozen or more cases. l have in
variably found that the merchants
who were doing the business were good
advertisers and that the ones VINO
were APPARENTLY receiving but little
benefit from the holiday trade made
no use of printers ink.

Ten Thousand Flowers.

The most inspiring Horticultural
idea of the last quarter Of century
is the natrralizing of flowers by the
thousands in situations where they
need absolutely no care after plant
ing. It is the easiest kind of gar
dening, for there is no wedding, wat
ering, hoeing, stalking or tying. It
is the most artistic form Of garden
ing, because the flowers fit perfectly
into the landscape. 1t is the most
effective kind of gardening, because
nothing can surpass in beauty con-
tinuous sheet of flowers all of the
same variety. (No matter how num-
erous they may be, these wildlngs
never seem gaudy or vulgar.) And,
finally, it is the least expensive way
of getting hosts of flowers flowers
like the stars of the Milky Way in
multitude. A thousand narcissus
bulbs. The thought takes ones
breath away; yet thousand bulbs
of the poets narcissus costs only S5
"a mere nothing compared with the
vision of loneliness which it makes
possible.

Cakes Looked Like Books

An an illustration of the thrift and
foresight of the housekeepers Of the
early period. Halsey p. Clarke, the
veteran town clerk of Richmond, tells
this story. says the Providence Jour.
nal: His father, David Clarke, was
In Providence at one time, and being
Obliged to stay over night, for in
those days the means Of travel was
by horse and wagon or horsefiesh,
which was necessarily very slow. he
put up at tavern, and in the room
he occupied were four beds, for there
was not much space wasted in the
bedrooms of the old-time taverns. Be-
fore retiring for the night Mr.. Clarke
and friend who was with him struck
up an acquaintance with another &C.
cupant Of the same room. The friend
Of Mr.. Clarke whispered to him not
to tell the stranger where they came
from and to try to find out whence
he had come: so they inquired of him
where he had come from, and he
told them he had just been down IN
South country, in the town of Rich
mond. He said that when he arrived
in town 1t was nearing dusk, so he
drew up at tavern and inquired OF
the landlord for lodging for the night.
The landlord replied in the affirma.
tive and sent boy to take his horse,
as he was on horseback. The gentle.
man went with the boy and removed
the saddlebags and brought them into
