What wan known in Scotland twenty yer ago iil " the Hawick case" wai a good illiulration of how criminals sometimei take detperate chances and win. Hawick fa a town in southern Scotland ami right among the mountains. There is a sanitur nun a couple of miles out of the town much rciorwd to l>y people in the first stages of consumption. A* a rule such patients are |M-nple of meins. Among those whoamved tin-re in July, 1*71, was an English girl named Kdith liailey, whose father was a wealthy Londoner' and a widower. A maiden named Sarah Andrews accompanied her. Americana who were staying at Ha- wii-k at the time pronounced Sins liailey tinimually handsome and attractive. A London physician hod said that tier left Inn,; ws slightly affected, but so far as ntw.tril appearances went she was in per- fect health. Afl*i a week everybody knew her by sight. She would perhaps have been recognized at a distance on foot or in a carriage sooner than anyone, else about the pla.'C. Among the men employed about the grounds fUti a young man named George Adair. He was 'Jl years old, hardly able to read or write, and was not considered either wise or running. He fell in love with Mis* liailey at first sight, hut though she afterward re- Niciii I i ed of his acting queerly on occasions he had not the slightest suspicion nt the real slat* of the cane. Nor had anyone els*, for that matter, tor Adair had more. unning t han they gave him credit for. He realized I list the young lady was so far above him in the social scale that he bad nothing to hope for without he could secure some unusual advantage. As he. afterward confessed, and was no doubt honest in bis statements and belief, In: determined to abduct and imprison her, and hoped she would learn to love him hen she rcall/ed how much he loved her. The idea wss abanrd. of course, but all be- lieved him honest in enL*rtainmg it. Two miles away in the mountains was an old drift or tunnel which had been duven for a. mlMi < of forty (eel and then abandoned. The entrance was hidden by vines and bushes, and everybody about th- neighbor- hood seemed to have forgotten the place. ADAIK'H C<H>I> u IK. In the rourae of a week, going to and fro only at night, Adair conveyed bedding, two chairs, u stand, a mirror, and other arti. ! - ii furniture I the tunnel or cave, together with a quantity of proviiinni. Kverything was taken from the sanitarium, and yet no enr discovered him at work. For a mile, Koiog and coining, he had to pass over a much traveled highway, but no one after- ward came forward to say that he had en countered him. A man carrying a < hnir ought In attract observation ana he re- in. mi.ere'1, hut Adair seemed to have dodged trrylxMly. The abduction was attended by the same good luck During an afternoon Miss Tiailey walked up the road about a mile, .croinnaiiie.l by nti maid.

THE MY^TKRV OKKKINKD. Something had happened during the in- terval to deepen the mystery. Miss Kailey's room had l-een plundernd of her trunk and clothing. The maid occupied a room adjoin- ing, and yet some, one had come by night and removed the articles without muting the slightest alarm. Most of the clothing iiients bad been the trunk, and was hanging up. The garments bad been t iki u (low N and p! i. ed i the trunk carried down a pair of stairs, through two halN, and out of the IM. k door. They knew it must have been )>y the back door because it was foui d un'ocked and a strange key broken in the lock. Until the father arrived it was generally Ixdieved that the girl had Meil with a lover who had fol- lowed on after her. He soon diapelled that belief and then the professional detective was told to go to work. You will wonder where he could make a U-ginning. He start- . - . edw.thSarah. the niaid.

Sarah had 'forgotten" to speak of these things lfore. The detec- tive w.n soon satisfied that t hi- whole thing whole mystery. Une of the female servant* noticed that Adair had changed greatly of late, and she had her eye upon him when he "lipped some food from the table into hia handkerchief. Nothing was said to him at the time, but the woman began to put this and that together, and she finally began to woiider and suspect. She communicated with her master and he with the detective, who was ttill at the place, and that evening Adair was followed to the cave and Misa liailey rescued. While the young man was arretied snd thrown into prison it toon became evident that he had lotl hit mind. And could nol heheldlegally responsible. Aftera medical commiation had pronounced on hi* case he waa sent to an insane asylum. Mr. Kailey ami his daughter went home, and we who still lingered hail censed to talk of the case hen aclimax toitcame. Adair escapedfrom the asylum and returned to the sanitarium. I want you to notice again how unobserv- ing the general run of people are. Twoof us who aat on the veranda talking failed to I3e him, though he pused within thirty feet of us. A woman who sat at a window tewing noticed him, but took him for an altogether different man. A nervant pass- ".I him on the stain and called him "Joe,'' which was the name of another man.

What wonderful progress the closing hal of the nineteenth century lias witnessed Men still young have witnessed discoveries and inventions, which, while they have fairly revolutionized the methods ot human life, are taken ulinost a a mailer of course. New and wonderful discoveries are made almost daily ; we uuiokly adipt ouraelvea to the changed condition, and even wonder that the inventive genious of man had not long ago penetrated the secrets of nature, almost daily being brought to our aid. While in all directions great advances have been made, perhaps in none have the strides beeu greater, than in the science of medicine. Old methods have entirely dis- ap|>eared, the days of lug, nauseous, doses, cupping and bleeding, have paased away, and diseases formerly held to M inccrahlef 'now speedily yield to the treatment of i advanced medical science. For more than | a year paat there have appeared in the columns of the " News Letter," from tune to time, the particulars of cures that ' have been the wonder of all who were ac- j ijuainted with the persons restored. Per- i Laps the case of Mr. .lohn Marshall, of i Hamilton, was more fully fastened in the public mind, for the reason that tie hod been paid a total disability claim of Jl.mn, only after having beeu pronounced incurable by a score or more of men, who arc leaders in I the medical profession. As publisher of the i kiiadtan Workman" the writer has lhe . know ledge of the proceedings under which a disability claim is paid and when it is understood that all such claims have topasa the scrutiny of an investigating committee, the Local Medical Kiaminer, the (irand Medical Kiaminer, the Finance Committee and the Crand Lodge Officers, it will be teen tnat in none hut genuine case of dis- ' ability could a claim be paid. That the | claim was paid Mr. Marshall under this itrmgent scrutiny waa unimpeachable evi- dence of hia total disability ; that he was afterwards made a well man waa due entirely to a treatment of Dr. Will- lama' Pink 1'ills probably the moat re markable medical discovery of the age This case was but the lirst of a series of ; cures eipially remarkable, doe lo the same ' grand agency, each of which has been verified by the mosl trustworthy testimony. The " Newt Letter" in co union with many others, has taken a deep interest in noting the testimony given in behalf of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, hence when the cure of Mrs. K. A. Chate, was reported from Midland recently, we decided to interview the lady and verify the truth of the report ; with this end in view. Midland was vitited, and Mrs. Chase found looking well and happy after long years of suffering, Iwfore , she learned of the elticacMof Dr. Williams' I'mk Pills. Mrs. Chas herself admitted the lepoitrr.wh.i found heralady of superior intelligence, who, while not wishing for notoriety, waa willing to give her candid [ testimony m favor of Pink Pills, for the benefit of other atllicled persons. To the reporter .Mm. I 'hase said that up to her six- teenth year, she hail Iwen a healthy girl, but st that pencil sickness overtook her, and for , the ensuing ten years her life was one of almost constant misery. In January, 1S9I, she grew worse and dually had to take to her bed and Was reduced by suffering to the point of death. All tht time she waa under the treatment of leading doctors. After weary months Mrs Chase longed for some change and in October asked her doctor if he would consent to her taking a trip to her mother's, who lives near Port Hope. This was finally agreed to and on Oct. '.t lasl she set out for ' that place. On the way, a lady, a stranger to her, noticing her weak condition strong- ly urged her to use Dr. Williams' Pink Tills, and again on her arrival at her deati nation her friendt urged her to try thit wonderful remedy On Oct. 10 the content ed to give the Pink 1'illt a trial, and soon found such beneticial effects that it needed no persuasion to continue the treatment, i In lrs than three months she waa fully restored, and on Jany. 15 returned to her I home in Midland, where her friends were rejoiced snd unfitted at the wonderful change which Pink Pills had wrought in her health and appearance. Mrs. Chit.- naa since continued to enjoy good health and says that she cannot too highly praise Dr. W illiams' Pink 1'ilis, which have rescued her from debility after many years of al- most hopelessness. Her tiuslxtnd also ex- pieatea nis thankfulness ami apprecia- tion of I'ink 1'ills, and lhe unlimited pleasure wild nhuh he received bit' wife on her return, looking so well and happy, which wa* as though he truly de- ! .1 il, "like re. citing one from the dead.

The Berliner Tsgeblatl announces in a despatch from Lodz, Kussia, that Prince Anton Kadziwill, Adjutant-General of the German Kmperor's Military Household, head of one of the oldest and noblest fami- lies of Germany, and one of the C/ar's few German favoritaa, became violently insane on Sunday morning and hunted with tire- arms everybody who approached him. Karly last week, the Tsgeblatt says, the Prince and Gen. von Werder were invited to join the C/ar's hunting party at Spain. They arrived with their Iwdy servant* at Lodz on Saturday evening and took apart- ments at the Grand Hotel. During the evening the Prince seemed to bt in hi* usual health and pints, chatted with Gen- von Werder unlil late, drank moderately, and retired ahortly after midnight after wishing hi* comrade a hearty good night. The Prince'* apartment* were on the floor above Gen. von Werder't. Shortly after daybreak on Sunday morning the whole house was aroused by shot* and shouling. The guest* who ran from their room* saw the Prince, with a fowling piece in his band and two revolt-era in his belt, firing right and left at everybody in hi sight. Two servants already lay in their blood at the head of the grand stairway. The Prince had shot both on sight, one in the neck and the other in the breast. Gueata, servants, and landlord were stamp- eded. They fled to the street, shouting for help, while the Prince, having exhausted hi* fowling piece, puraued ihem to the door firing from th* revolvers.
