Hlghlhoor, S. D.. Juno The return to this town of a man and woman who were divorced five years ago, but who are again husband and wife adds the last chapter to a romantic story of love and war. Five years ago Henry Ballantlne and wife, of this place, agreed to separate. They had been married not quite twelve months. Ballantllle was a prosperous grain buyer, and owned several good farms near tllghmoor. These he deed? ed to his wife. Tiie few hundred dollars he was able to scrape together in easli he put in his own pocket and left to begin life afresh in a new location. As ^nn .is lie had gone Ills wife sued Cor a divorce. There was no defence and a decree was granted. The land given her by her husband she sold to advantage and by shrewd reinvestments accumulated within the next year a confortable for? tune. " _______ \V?|mNu Nrfourcl ton.t .: ?mrdiiim The past winter ehe spent in south? ern California. On her way home n month ago site stopped temporarily In San Francisco. On the street there one day she met an emaciated figure in army l>:ue, hob? bling about with the aid of a heavy cane, in vain search for employment. It was Ballantlne discharged from the United States volunteer service and an invalid from the Philippines) after a fever. HER LOVE REVIVED. Ballantino was about to pass his for? mer wife without speaking to lter, but when she saw Iiis wasted form and mis? erable condition felt all her old hue for him revive. She hurried him Into a carriage and to her hotel, where comfortable quar? ters, good food and the services of com? petent physicians) soon produced a marked improvement in his health. Last week the two were remarried ami have just returned to Hlghmoor together. ; QUEEN'S DRAWING ROOM. PRINCESS OF WALES RECEIVES FOR HER MAJESTY. (By Telegraph to Virginian-Pilot.)
