A ST. PAUL ROMANCE
An Interesting Story of tho Evils
of Correspondence.
XIio liomnntlo Young I.ody and ih
1'oniiff Man With tho Eloquent Ven
What Came o a To.r HarmlcHi
Let (cm Jimt For Fun A
Hvvnv at Which the Chief Moitrnci
Wus CoiiNplctinu by his Absence.
St. PaxJl, Minn., Sept. 17. A well,
known man about town, and until recently
employed in tho oflico of a fuel company,
has probably taken his permanent departure
from St. Paul. It is well known to
his acquaintances that about a year ago he
madctno acquaintance of a most cstimnble
young lady of this city, who, shortly after
their acquaintance was formed, took hox
departure for Brooklyn, N.Y.. for the purpose
of studying elocution. A correspondence
was solicited by hor friend, and he,
being a very clever young man with a pen,
doubtless made his initial communication
bo agreeable that tho young lady, believing
from hU connections that ho was all lie
claimed to be, consented to the proposition.
That ho was an adept in
the uso of the pen and ink developed
itself in a short time, for tho
result of the correspondence was that
ho so completely won the lady's affections
that u marriage engagement 'was entered
into, and last March llxcd for tho ceremony.
As tho data fixed upon drew near,
the young man suggested a postponement,
at tho same time giving a plausible reason
for tho request, and the lady, still believing
implicitly in his honor, consented to
tho postponement. Another dato was
fixed, and again a postponement was asked
hy tho fickle lover and again granted.
Finally, completely unnerved and miserable
beyond endurance at his remarkable
actions, the lady determined to como to St,
Paul and seek from her recreant lover an
explanation in person. She Btarted from
Brooklyn the last week in August, and
arriving in Chicago her feelings overcame
her and she swooned in tho depot.
She was taken to a hotel and died
after two days' illness. The young
man was appealed to by telegraph and
by the lady's friends in St. Paul to hasten
to hor sido as her illness was considered
from the first dangerous in its diameter.
Sho had in fact been overcome by the
strain upon her nervous organization. H
finally consented to go to Chicago and lett
hero the day after the lady arrived there
but never went near her. Sho died about
an hour before tho train on which he wa
anived in the city, and was buried in St
Paul two days afterward. Whether :.
knew of her death or not does not appe.i ,
but ho continued his journey through Chicago
and is now probably in Now York or
bound for his native Britain. Several
confiding creditors mourn his departure,
and the friends of the lady who was cruelly
and unpardonably victimized aio at a lovi
for woids to express their abhorrence ad
detestation of tho gay deceiver. It is the
gem nil opinion that he will not return ;o
St. Paul.

Ni:wakk, Sept. 17. Frank L. Van
Metoi, a hon of tho Rev. W. C. Van Meter,
fonnei ly superintendent of the Howard
Mission of New York, hns been nnested
for embezzling S 1,200 from Bailey & Ailing,
lumber dealers, for whom lie had been
bookkeeper three years. An expensive
supper and lawn party given at his
about three months ago attracted
the attention of noighbors, who spoke to
his employers about it. His salary was
only $20 a week, and he accounted lor his
means by Baying that New York friends
bent him money and furniture. A detective
showed that tho story wan
untrue, and laid plana to detect
him. Calling at tho oflico of the firm
when Van Meter was alone ho ordered
some lumber and handed Van Meter three
marked $10 bills. When the cash was'
made up lor tho day the bills wore missing.
Then a hasty examination of the
books showed that ho had embezzled at
least $4,200. He begged so hard that his
Wife and two children bo not disgraced
that the firm, after he surrendered his
decided not to prosecuto him. Recently
finding, however, that his embezzlement
was double what was at first supposed,
the firm resolved to arrest and punish
him. Ho was telegraphed to' come to
tho city and select what household articles
ho wanted to save from tho auction. He
carao over from Brooklyn, where ho had
just got employment, and went to Mr. Al-ling's
house. Van Meter and Ailing
walked to tho former's late residence
where Van Meter packed a few articles.
A constable followed them, and when they

A RAPID EARMER.
A. Tomiff Iowmi'n Experience in
Winked Chicago.
Chicago, 111., September 17. "M. Mo-Donald
vs. D. Edward Paulline,
demand, $2,000," is tho innocent looking
title of a suit begun in tho Superior
Court on Thursday, and supprcssttd tor
eervicc. Later a minuto on Judgo Anthony's
docket showed that tho suit ha heed
dismissed by stipulation. This was all
thero was of tho caso in tho courts, but ito
beginning and ending mako a story.
The defendant, D. Edward Paullin,
is a wealthy young farmer residing ncA
Cornell, la. Ho is a graduato of Phillips'
Academy, Andover, Mass., aim of Harvard
College. On coming of ago ho found himself
tho possessor of an estate of over $100,-000
in valuo. His father, the Hon. Edward
Paulline, had been n distinguished
citizen of Illinois, living at Quincy, and
the Bon made his residenco in the same
city until, in 1880, ho moved to Iowa. He
bought a large tract of land near Cornell,
and went to farming. He relieved the
tedium of a pastoral lifo, however, b
trips to Chicago, whero his amusement
were moro rapid and costly than those
to bo enjoyed in rural communities.
Last Monday ho arrived in the city
with $3,000 in his pocket, and began to
"paint tho town red." During the day
and night ho invested $400 in sundry
wordly, liquid and lleshly amusements.
Tuesday night found him inMiko McDonald's
gambling lair, with $2,G00 in his
pocket. In a few hours he had lost thN
amount over the faro table. Ho had no
moro money, but thought if ho couM have
ono more chanco ho could " win out." The
gambling npartments arojibovo tho liquor
store occupied by Mr. Michael McDonald.
Mike, who happened to bo in "the
store," suggested that they would gladly
cash Mr. Paullino's paper if ho was so
anxiotls to retrieve his losses. Paulline
drew up two promissory notes for $1,000
each. Mike gave him tho cash, and in
two hours aftenvard Mr. Paulline was in
Clark street without a cent, and owinq;
Miko McDonald $2,000. The suit was instituted
by McDonald to rccovor on tin
notes, but D. Edward Paulline raised lb
$2,000 and paid tho notes so as to avo
publicity and newspaper notoriety, .li
raullinolins gone back'tolowa to see wli.i

"' Around Was Brought About A
N'W Way or Getting Water
In a lEIthcrto Arid Itrgion.
Prvvrn, Col. September 17. Tho Denver
Water Company, which enjoyed a
monopoly of the business of supplying
tho city with water until the success of
the artesian well become an assured fact,
issued a circular making a reduction of
rates amounting to moro than GO per cent;
An all buildings containing more than five
rooms. The officer of the company ad-mi,
thntthey wcro forced to take this step
became the owners of lorgo buildings
would find it cheaper to ,;et water from tho
well th-n pay the old' rato for Platte
water. They think that the reduction will
put a stop to artesian as the
company proposed to sink a sufficient
number of well to supply the entlro citv
through the Holly water pipes. The difference
hi qualitv of the two kinds
of water is so marked that the people
will only nc the artesian. The magnetic
propoties of tho water of Denver
are among the most important advantages
of the system. All of tho wells are
more or less impregnated with magnetism,
though its presence has been attributed to
the friction of the tool tubing. The fact
is, however, that tho water that comes
from tho artesian well is magnetic in itself.
The attention of the reporter was called to
the magnetic qualitv of tho water from a
wll at tho sido of Wellons street. A
knife blade was maunetized by simple contract
with tho water a distance sulhciontlv
far from tho well to make itcertain that it
was not effected by the took or tubing.
Passinvthe knife-blade through the sand
over which tho water ran, it was found,
on withdrawing to bo loaded with small
parts of magnotic snow. The sourco of
tho magnets is thus ascertained to be a
stratum of magnetic one, and the quality
of the magnetic fluid is probably det
by the thickness of tho stratum at
tho point of intersection by the wells.
This fact is of tho greatest importance to
tho city of Denver. Tho celebrated magnetic
baths of Germany are the resorts of
thousands of people annually, tho water
being tho best known specific for nervous
prostration and the diseases incident thereto.
Tho magnetic quality of tho water
from our artesian wulls is unequaled now,
and its strength can bo readily ascertained.
That the abovo mentioned is highly
charged is shown by the fact that tho
knife blade alluded to, which was held in
the water but two or three minutes, main-mains
its macnetism. which is Rtrnnc
enough to lift a common peiij though sev
eral nays iiuru eiapseu since u was pill in
the water. .

VIRGINIA POLITICS.
The I.nteat Concerning 'the 3Inhone
Cuiiintiigu.
Washington, Sept. 17. It is said by
prominent Virginia Conservatives that
Governor Cameron, of Virginia, will not
issue a writ of election to iill tho vacancy
in the Harrisonburg district until Congress
meets. This district was represented
by Paul, a Eeadjustcr. By Miihone's influence
ho was made a United States District
Judge, thus creating a vacancy. Re
adjusters in the district aro clamorous for
a writ of election but Cameron, who
through Muhono is well informed as to
every precinct in the district, knows that
it would go Democratic if an election were
held in November, and fearing the effect
which this demonstration of Mahone's
weakness in a' Federal election would produce,
proposes to wait till Congress is in
session. He thinks Mahono's defeat will
be less noticeable then.
