Amoneé thdse who followed the fortunes of Prince Charles Edward was Donald Mc- Laren, who owned an estate in Balquidder, Perthshire. He was married to Robina
fore he finally joined his fortunes with the Pretender, he confidingly gave his estate into the hands of his wife’s friends—the
After the battle of Culloden in the year 1746, Donald McLaren was taken prisoner, and was sent along with others to Carslisle for execution, As the prisoners and their escort were proceeding on their way to that eity such a heavy fog overtook them that it was difficult to see any distance, McLaren knew that after ing a certain bridge on the way the took a sudden turn; so, after coming to this , he ob- tained permission from the nglish com- mander to leave his horse in of one of the soldiers, while he (McLaren) went off the road a short distance. As the sol- diers marched on slowly, the tura of the road hid McLaren from their view, and as soon as this occurred he ran back towards the bridge, and jumping over it, hid him- self in the bog on the sides of the stream; and, more effectually to elude pursuit, drew some green sedges, that grew near, over his head. The soldiers, after a short tim, missed their prisoner aud returned to look for him. Not finding McLaren where they expected, they returned to his house at Balquidder, and thoroughly searched the whole building, even to the bedroowe, where they destroyed the feather beds by prubing them with their bayonets and scat- | teriug the feathers all around. Not: con-| cent with examining the house and -out- buildings, the soldiers spent considerable time searching the park and woods in the vicinity, and while doing so discovered some catile belonging to the estate, which they disabled—thus giving vent to their chagrin and disappointment at the loss of thew prisoner. In the meantime McLaren had remained concealed in the bog until seme time during the following night, when he crept out, more dead. than elive from the hardships be had endured, and crawled to the nearest house, where shortly | panied afterwards he died.
His, son and heir was William McLaren, who Was bern in 1741, at Fouss, in Perth- shire. Although MclLaren’s father had been among those who actively supported ,the “Pretender, and had in consequence ‘been condemned. for treason, yet some years afterwards, by virtue of a proclama- tion from the Crown restoring to the heirs of those who had owned estates any pro- perty their fathers had forfeited, William McLaren, when he came of age, was enabled to claim his father’s estate. The Stewarts of Appin, however, having obtained possession under the trans- fer given by Donald MelLaren, refused to give up the property, and William McLaren had to carry on a law suit against them for several years, at the town of Perth, where finally a decision ad- verse to his claim was given. He, how- ever, not satisfied with this verdict, carried the case to Edinburgh, where after the matter had been delayed for several ses- sions, judgment was given in his favor, and he obtained possession of his father’s pro- perty, While the Stewarts had ion of the property, they ran it considerably in debt, and William McLaren, having had to pay this as well as a large sum for law costs, found that all that remained to him, as the residue of theestate, was some three theusand pounds.
William McLaren was married to Isabella McDonald, who was a cousin of the late Donald McDonald, of New Perth, in P. E. Island. After the lawsuit between him and Stewart was finally settled, and McLaren had obtained the proceeds of the estate, he determined to emigrate to North America.
His friend, the Eari of Selkirk, owned land in Prince Edward Island, and this, no doubt, induced him to make that colony his objective point. So in the year 1803 he and his wife and their four sons and three daughters left the land of their tore- fathers, resolved to make a home for them-

FOR THE suM OF $8,090 IN LEGAL TENDER THE HUSBAND IS SET FREE,
Sr. Lours, Aug. 30.—Another chapter in the romance of Count von Schwarz Walder formerly of [Voclleville was rounded off
when his inoffensive little wife obtained a
,divorce in East St. Louis City Court yes- terday on the ground of desertion. The Count was plain Suton until two years ago. He had lived in Belleville for ten years and was known as an expert miller. He mar- ried in 1874and has two young childrev. Two years ago he was notitled by his grand- mother, Countess von Otting, that if he would return to Germeny and fulfil certain conditions he would succeed to his grand- father’s title as Count, and come into a vast fortune. He went abroad without being divoreed, and married the depgiter of aGerman army officer at his mother's uest. This woman accom- them back to Belleville last May, re the discovery that he had been married created a scene. Ina short time, however, he was on the best of terms with both wo- men. He induced his legal wife to consent to adivorce for $8,000, and the money wae paid. After the decree had been ed the Count kissed his former wife child- ren, statiag’ that his life had been saved. Hethen took a train for New York, where he will mevt his other wife. — a e

DESTRUCTION OF TWO TOWNS IN MONTANA-— HUNDREDS OF FARMERS LOSE THEIR STOCK, AND THEIR CROP,
Lac ovr =Parte, Minn., Sept 2.—A prairie fire’ ten miles wide is sweeping Minnesota bottom lands, and the town of Big Stone City is threatened. Hundreds of farmers have lost all their crops and stock. The fire is now beyond control.
Hetena, Mont., Sept. 2.—The town of Black Pinej was destroyed by fire. Black Pine is situated in the midst of a heavy growth of timber. The fire started in tim- ber in that section a week ago, and men have been hting it continuously. The town of Gardner, on the edge of the National Park, was entirely destroyed by fire on Saturday—only one house was sav- ed. Troops and other government em- ployes in Yellowstone Park were all last week fighting fires in the park, Fires are
