sometime since took it • into his head to

the Toronto girls appear not to have fully

through some means or other, he learned
the address of Mies Nellie Meffert, a young

Meanwhile the guns of Fort Sumter
were booming, and when Kreitmeyer
landed at New York he found that city
ablaze with exoitement, while brave men
jostled each other in their eagerness to en-
roll themselves among the volunteers for
whom President Lincoln had called. Hav-
ing-been---destined---by-his--father for the
army, Kreitmeyer promptly enlisted in -a
New York regiment. At the first battle of
Bull Run he wag carried off the field with a
Confederate bullet in his .breast,and for
long weeks afterward he was oonfined in a
Washington hospital. When sufficiently
recovered to leave it he returned to his
regiment and served gallantly until the very
end of. the 'war. He wasagain twice

found himself the .possegeor of .some $600,
and with this aum he determinedto ibcross
the water and pay a visit incognito to the
neighborhood of his nld home. On Arriving
in Oberamt Maulbronn he wended his way
tothelodge--in-the-foresti:vit-his-lather-s
eatatee, whence he had led his young bride
in the long ago. Making himself known to
his, father -m -law, the old gamekeeper, he
learned from -hire that both his parents
were dead and that hie elder brother Was
now master of the title and estates: Com,
pletely overcome and Softened by the news
of his mother's death,-Kreitneyer sought a
reconciliation -with hie -brother; 'but the new.
Baron declared that lie could never forgive
the diegraoe which Era had inflicted upon
the family name by hie marriage with the
gamekeeper's deughter,iand, following the
example of hie 'father, he anathematized
the returned soldier Ind turned him out
for the second tinae. ••-.-
Feeling' utterly friendless and alone in
the world, Kreitmeyer enlisted in the
Prussian armyand continued in theeervice
for a period of fifteen.years, during which
time he pawed unharmed through both
the Anstro-rrnesian and Frantio-Prussian
wars, though on more than one occasion
his horse was shot tinder liim. He left the
army in 1880, resolved to return to the
United States; but his seoond.vieit to thie
country. Was not so fortunate as his first.
After wandering about for Some time from'
city to city, turning his 'hand tO any . odd
jobs he could obtain, he at length drifted to
this cominuniatio settlement and obtained
employment as a farm laborer, in which
capacity he has continnedfor several years:
• • :.THE HAPPY ENDING.
Some three or four, months ago he
answered an advertisement in a German
newspaper for inforniation concerning Emit
Von Kreitmeyer, heir ' to the barony and
estates of Von Kreitmeyer, • in Oberamt
Maallbronn, 'Wurteralaurg, Germany -the
last incumbent, Erail's . brother, having
died. • . •
Considerable correspondence pawed on
the subject, and yesterday Kreitmeyer re-
ceived a letter with a German postmark
from the family solicitors, enclosing a
draft on New York for a sum sufficient to
supply all his wants • and enable him to
travel like a gentleman to Oberamt Maul-
broon, where hie title and estates await
him.

. Ladies Looking at a Battle.
Ona lovely spring Sunday some months • • ,
ago some English ladies in Suakin mounted ' ' . '
to the housetops and witnessed a thrilling • . ,
spectacle. In the clear, atmosphere every
movement: was visible on the sandy*
plain behind the , town, across' which • •
Osman Digna's 'horsemen, poising their .. _ •
long spears and with terrific Yells, -
charged furiously, while the Egyptian
troops, drawn • up in battle , array, . . .. . ..,
Pour volley after volley into the turbaned . -
hosts. - Shells from the gunboats in the
harbor hissed over the heads of the ladies
and plunged into the mass of advancing • • .t
Araba. • The charge was as desperate . • '• • '
as the furious rushes' at Abu Elea, and . . ' •
the tremendous fire thattsmptied many
a saddle did not 'daunt the fanatical
courage of the desert warriors.' ' Then • ,
the ladies BMW on the yellow ,sand a fierce,
hand to :hand fight, soldiers who were . • '•
,defending_themselves-pierced-with spears, % .
a wavering of the charging line, and finally 0 ••
the slow retreat of the enemy, who carried •• ' .
their dead and wounded from the field as •
they sullenly .retired. There was not a , • • '
