TIIF HEIR TO A FORTUNE , How Yonng Francis Palms Discovered His Father. ROMANCE OF THE PALMS FAMILY. Tin * Sou In 1 veil from Home by His Stepmother l''lr t Meeting orills Tntbcr After Years of Sepa ration , Special dispatch from Detroit , Novem ber 0 ; Francis Palms , the richest man m Michigan , whose funeral occurs to morrow , loft two heir ? , Francis F. Palms , his son , and Clothllde , his daughter. The children bad dilfercnt mothers , Clo < thlldu bus obtained unpleasant notoriety of late because of Iho slonea connecting her name with that of Sena tor Jones of Florida. Ills due to the lady to .say at the beginning that she has never given the sligh'csl encouragement to her persistent suitor , any more than elio has to others who have been at tracted by her brilliant financial pros pects. Beyond a mere Introduction al the homo of her cousin they have never mot. Now that she is the mistress of four or live millions it is not likely that Us prospects will bo Improved. However , it is the story of the ion that is of most In terest , and a morn romantic bit of his tory is seldom hoard. Francis Palms was the son of Augo Palms , who eamo to De troit in 1831 iiom Antwerp. There wore four sons and two daughters , ami when the taiher , failing to lind the City of the Straits to Ins mind , betook himself to New Orleans , Francis and one daughter remained in Detroit. The daughter became the wife of the late D. J. Campau and the mother of the newly-appointed collector of Detroit. Ango Palms , with his other son and his remaining daughter , estab lished himself in the Crescent City , where the family nourished amid surroundings more congenial to a man used to the court of Napoleon , for the older Palms had been close to the Little Captain , and In the campaign which ended at Waterloo lee was ono of Napoleon's secretaries. None of the Palms family over rcterred to their European lite ; but it is known that the father lost all hi.s property on the downfall of the French emperor. Francis married a Miss Bennett , who tiled in giving birth to his only son. Soon alter his lirst wile's death Mr. Palm's married a second time , and the new wife was so averse to the child of the lirst wife that the boy , while yet a babv , was sent to his grandfather's house in New Orleans lo be brought up. So engrossed was the father in money-get ting that he forgot all about bis son and the lad grow up in utter ignorance of his father. No letters passed between the two branches of the tamily.bnttho grand father took entire care of the boy. In the course of time ho was sent to college in thu south , anil when his education had been linishod lie was started out to see the world. Finding liimclf as far north as Vir ginia , young Francis took it into his head to push on to Detroit to see it ho could discover his father , who was a sort of a mystical personage to him. In due time lie reached this city and took rooms nt tlio Michigan Exchange , Ills grand father told him that _ a stepmother was the cause of his exile from homo , and lie wisely concluded to ' ee how the land lay before making himself known. On mak ing inquiries ho found that bis father was regarded as thu richest man in tlio statu. lie further discovered that it was llio habil of the elder Palms to visit the hotel reading-room every evening at 8 o'clock to read hi.s letters , look at the papers , and occasionally do a little busi ness with people from out of town. Thai night the son was ou hand , and ho bad not long to wait. Punctually at 8 a short man with a lilllo stoop in bis shoulders came into the oflijo. There was a smile on his kindly face as ho nodded coed evening lo tlio people liu Know and then made his way to a sof-A in the reading-room. The son possessed his soul in paticnco until lie saw ins father tear open bis last loiter , glance through it , and then turn to take up a paper. Sauntering up to the elderly gentleman , the young man , witli thu case of a southerner , began Iho conversa tion. Gradually ho drew from Mr. Palms the admission that he had relatives in New Orleans. "I have a father there , and brothers , too , " said the elderly man , "Indeed ; " said tiio younger in appar ent surprise , "and what is tlio name1' ' Palms is my name " "Ami niiiio , too , " said the young man , coolly. "Perhaps you and 1 are re lated. " "My father's name is Ango Palms , ' aUmiltcd tlio elderly ono , "And ho is my grandfather , " was the young fellow's response. There was a scene. In a few words tlio father told the son that ho was glad lo sco him again , and llien gave him lo understand that the liotol would prove more comfortable quarters than the big brick house up the avonuo. whore the master ami mistress found that the least said the soonest mended , and so every- thinij was kept quiet. Young Palms had lived eighteen years without a father , and lie concluded that he could kcop on as ho bail begun. Hut b.y degrees the older Palms began to got fond of the boy. Ilonovcr , the young follow felt no more liking for Detroit than his errand fallici haddono before him. At the end of three weeks ho paid his hotel bill and returned to the south. The outbreak of the rebel lion found him tlio owner of a Louisiana plantation. Ho entered tlio confederate army and fought to the end of the struggle. In the meantime lie hail for- seen tiio inevitable result and had ex changed his property for cotton , which was then the only thing of value in the confederacy , Iho cotton ho got to Charleston , where it was confiioated. Returning to Now Orleans in much the name condition that liir grandfather mm gene back to Antwerp after Waterloo , the young man looked about for some thing to do. Family inllnonco obtained a clerical position in the United States courts , and ho settled down to a quiet life. At the outbreak of Iho war ho had been engaged to a lovely girl of Scotch parentage , but the struggle bad separated them , nml when the war ended cacti heard that the other bad married. B > chance they le.xrnotl of their mistake in time to enjoy a short period of domestic happiness before her death. Ho after wards married a second time , and his wife is still living. * About six years ago the second Mrs , Palms died. She had inherited from hoi father , the late Joseph Campau. | 25,000 , which was increased to about ? .r)0,000 bj the the rise in the value of real estate , This largo property was at her absolute disposal. There Is no doubt that Mrs , Palms' mind was unbalanced , Between her and her husband there was nothing in common. Ho was a genial , quiet man , fond of books nml devoted to money- making. His factotum , who with him self managed an estate * which otton included as much as 400,000 acres of land , received $500 r. year , and was docked for losing a quarter of u day. After Mrs. Palms came into hoi property she spent it lavishly in travel , on churches , and in ways pointed out to her by certain priests to whom she bad taken a lining , She finally separated from her husband and maintained n large establishment in another part of the city , It has been widely reported that she loft her fortune ( o her daughter Clothililg ] but she had not\o \ to leave. At her death she loft only enough nnincnmborcd prop crtv to pay her funeral expenses. On returning ironi his wife's funeral Mi. 1'nlins sat down nnd wrote to his son to come north. lie painted to him that before very many years he musl come into n largo property distributed among pine Intnl.1) , Iron mines , busine ? ? blocks railroad enleiprise * , niAiiufnct.ir- inji nnd bank stocks and the llko. He civ larged qn the fact that for over ten years the name of Palms had been the syno' nym for commercial integrity of the strictest kind , for fair dealing , and for great wealth. Ho urged his son to come north , to learn the details of a busines * that soon must bo hi.s own , and hu ended by offering a salary of $2,500. The son came and settled down on n .semi-fashionable street where he could be near the little brick ofllco in the roar of the paternal resilience. There ho lias lived quietly , making few friends ami spending the greater part of his leisure time with his wife ami liis eight ohlldren . He is a member of ono or two clubs , and by the e who know him is accounted a good fellow. Ho will not waste what has been left him. Miss Clothildo L'alm.s has kept the house for her father. Occa sionally she goes out in society. She has not inherited her father's bright face , but she lias his quiet ways. She dresses with oxtremu slnntllcilv , and her one devotion is to tlui Catholic church. What she will do with her enor mous fortune cannot bo guessed ; out ono thing is certain no fortuno-hunter will ever touch one penny of it. However , it is reported that Miss 1'iilms is engaged to Dr. Thompson , a brother of ex-Mayor Thompson. A Suggestion AVorthy of Considera tion. WACO , VoitK Cou.vrv , Neb. , Nov. 20. To the Kditor of the lii ? ; : : As the elections are all over and the boodlers are all con gregating around the capitol to put up jobs to feast oil'of the laboring clashes for the next two years , 1 want to suggest a motion to every county in the statu something like this : That tlio farmers nml laboring clashes call a mas ? convention sometime during December and nomin ate one lobby member for every live hun dred votes cast at the last election in the county , also two alternates for a relief. Now , L would likii to hear through the 15ir from mcu who believe in getting some good laws lor ourselves to say what they think of my motion. Now , 1 be lieve it to be a fact thai all the laws our legislature enacts is done by the iiilluoncc of a lobby. W bile we are home sleeping the lobby is gelling its jobs through , and every job i.s at our , or against our , inter ests. Now , 1 am a farmer. L might biro a hand , give him a team and send him out in the field to work. I think I would bo a very poor farmer it L did not go some time during the day anil see what he was doing- . Some boodler might come along and tell him to do my Work differ ently from \yhat I did , ami would have a bad job 01 it , as we all did when we voted the railroad commission. I will have to disagree with thu editor for a minute. You wore in favor of Hie extension of the time of the legislative session. Nowsirfor thelast sixteen years the session lasted just thirty-ninu days twenty-three hours and lifty-nino min utes too long for ou r bonelit. I cannot see what they wanted twenty days more for , unless certain parties wore afrnid we would lobby , and they could wear us out b.y haying longer sessions. Now , sir , I am a democrat , i am in favor of .sending Van Wyck back to the senate , and 1 believe - lievo most everybody else is , ( unless it is Hie boodlers ) . Hut I think it will take tiio help of a lobby lo do it , 1 think this way. if I hire a band on my farm for a year , i don't ask him if ho is a republican or a demftcrat. lie serves mo faithfully , ho comes to hire the next 3 car , would 1 not be a fool to hiie somebody 1 dill notkuow in his stead ? Another thing to bo looked at , is our statutes , . Why , sir , the.su are nothing but a conglomerated piece of rubbish , and every child fourteen years old is bound by thorn. Why don't the legisla ture make laws Iheso children can read and understand ? 1 believe it to bo a fact that the supreme court makes more laws than the legislature docs , 1 think tlio next legislature will have to ask the supreme court if it is in session. Of course they will add on twenty days on the session that wo voted down , the Same as the last did the commission. J. T. COOK.

United Stales Marshal Coiuins in St. Louis Globe Democrat : Ainoncr the many stories of noted robberies which have buon sprung lately in connection with the recent Adams express robbery , I was astonished that no one thought of the Noyes case witli the United Statca express company in ISG'2. It was similar in many respects , to the recent one , and involved as much , or perhaps more , money. Charlie Hurd was clnof clerk anil slept in tlio oflico , at Fourth and A'ino streets , llis.unclo was a loading man in lliu company , being in charge of tlio ollico at Chicago. The night that the robbery occurred 1 went down to the oilico anil found Hurd lying beside the safe , where ho had been asleep , and ap parently powerless from the elfccts of chloroform. When ho recovered he said ho had boon drugged from the outside through the fan-light. There wore marks about the window such as would bo made by ono climbing in AVell , ono Noyes , a mail detective , and who had previously robbed the quartermaster's safe , was the ono 1 first suspected after concluding that Html know something about it. So wo had Hurd closely guarded and , nnticcmgtlmt Noyes was suspicious , we took him into our confidence and said that a man named Trub , and who had gene to New Vork , wo were sure was the thief. Wo engaged Nnyos to go to Now York with the superintendent of tiio company , Cohen. In the meantiino the boodle had boon shlppeiUto Now York , and Noyes had the check , for the trunk containing it. Well , ticy | started , but wo had secured a confp.ision from Hurd , and only wanted to se/j\iro / \ the money. Wo discovered a house on Carr street neat J'ratt avenue , in which they had secreted it. Wo found f 5,000 but the re mainder was gono. I .telegraphed to Cohen to return witj ) Noyes. Thov came and Noyes squealed , and told o'f thu trunk and all about the transaction. Wo recovered t .OOO. Tlio chloroform had been purchased and drunk by Hurd , and tlio murks about the"yindow \ liad all boon purposely put there. It was a very well-arranged all'air , and but for Hurd's nticlo having prevailed upon tlio clerk to confess ) would have been difllcult of dis covery , Noyes afterward bribed tlio jailer and escaped , while Hurd was let oft on his uncle's account. $500 Itewnril.

Somewhere on the crarnl river , when among the ranges that tower above Capo Horn , Minto noticed that the Indians acted very singularly and rather suspiciously. 'I hey stopped the canoes and looked down in the water intently. Thou two slaves and a sub-chief got into the smaller canoe ami started to cross the river. Suddenly Mlnto "dropped on It , " and saw what the Indians saw. It was one of those beautiful transparant days when the air and water are clear as crystal. Tlio sun of autumn either had not ricen so as to reach tlio deep canon with its rays , or had dropped behind the western lungltts. Anyway , these heights were reflected so perfectly on the surface of the river that the Indians had wa'ched ' the mountain side as they paddled along , The cause of their strange action was seeing a bear on u high ritlgo across the river from them eating berries. The two slaves took their fusees and crossed the river to attack. They climbed the binIV , took aim , fired , missed , and tlio bear ran away ho was not hurt. All tins Minto saw on the river surface with out straining his eyes lo the mountain's summit. linnit Sold Tuloc.
