About 0 o'clock that evening a party of young men who had been assisting In the search ler tbe young lady found ber half Iroien and almost exhausted, struggling about In tbe deep snow lu the vicinity of the llttle hamlet of North Hose, away oil en the confines of the county, and brought her te her home. HI10 was found te have become lusane duilng her wanderings, and the man ner or her doirarture from home was a per fect blank te her. Thn consternatlon the knowledgo of thelr daughter's Insanity caused the parents or tbe beaulllul girl uau scarcely be described, and tlielr anguish was added te when a council of physicians decided that she was probably permanently Insvi-iand would have seen te be removed te an asylum.

The cause el her sudden Insanity Is absolutely un known, and although various conjectures are vontured there Is appireutly llttle basis for any or thorn .Miss lioeth has always, no far as is known, been very circumspect in bnr conduct, ami has conducted borself properly upon all occa sions. It Is net known that she had auy leve attachment, and the theory which was ad vanced by seme, when tbe news or her dis appearance llrst bocauie bruited about, that sbe had eloped, was rejected with Indigna tion by her friends, 'lbey feared that the yeuug girl had been foully dealt with. The clrcumstAuces surrounding her return te the home of her distracted parents have only served te deepen the mystery, and little Is new talked about lu this neighborhood but the oeeurronco. The feelings of the people there are all tern up,at d It will be some time bolero the excitement abates. When Miss ttoeth left horfuther's house en Monday night word was Immodla'ely con veyed throughout tbe neighborhood, and hundreds of willing hearts and hands wero volunleereit In tbe se-vrch for her.

Meanwhile the oxclteinent grew until dually It seemed as though half the county was eugsued In the search.
