An Actress Blue Eyes

Eight years ago a woman whose
maiden name was Della Williams de-
serted her five children, in Pottsville,
leaving them in the care Of her mother
in-law, Mrs. Curry. Friday afternoon
as Mrs. Vincent, member OF Gus
Williams theatrical company, was COM
ing out of the Aca icmy of Music, at that
place, from rehearsal she was arrested
as the missing Della Williams. She was
taken before a Justice of the Peace and
confronted Mrs. Curry. The latter
thought Mrs. Nincent's figure compared
with that Of her abscondcl daughtcr-in-
law, but she hai no eyeglasses with
her and could not say positively. She
went home, procured her spectacles and
was still in doubt. Mrs. Vincent yainly
protested that she never had child and
in the thirty years she hal been on the
stage that was the first time she had
been in Pottsyille. Finally Mrs. Curry
closely. examined the actress eyes. Tie
optics of Mrs. Curry, Jr, were brown.
Mrs. Vincent fortunately had blue eyes.
The Justice ordered her discharge.

Damages for Loss Of Water Pnuar.

An important case, in which heavy
damages were involved, came to an end
in the Lehigh County Court. at Allen
town, on Thursday evening of last week.
The plaintiff was David Williams and
the defendant Henry Fulmer, both rich
slate operators Of Slatington. Williams
operated a school slate factory, the
power being furnished by a turbine
water wheel, run by the Lehigh river.
Fulmer operated large slate quarry a
short distance away and dumped his
rubbish into the river. Gradually
Williams power gave out, because, as
he claimed, Of Fulmer's rubbish in the
river cutting off his supply of water.
Williams had TO introduce steam power,
at an annual expense of $4,000. He
then brought suit TO recover damages
from Fulmer for the loss of water power,
contending that his property was dam
aged TO the extent of 81 800 and that to
remove the rubbish would cost S25, 900.
The defense was that by act of Assembly
the Lehigh river is made a nayigable
stream and that there can be no property
in the water OF a nayigable river The
Court held that the plaintiff could only
recover damages for the loss of the
water power above the low water mark.
The jury went out at o'clock Wednes-
day afternoon and Thursday evening
brought in a verdict of 3G,slO damages.

Not to Hang, Eut goes to Jail.

IN June last Michael Eolway, Hun
glrian, was convicted OF murder ia the
first degree for shooting and killing
Thomas J. Hogan, the Lehich Valley
station agent at Penn Haven, nine miles
above Mau2h Chunk. The shooting
occurred in the station building and was
apparently without motive. A new
trial was granted by the Court and the
second trial commenced on Monday, 18th
inst, AMI ended Friday with a verdict
Of murder in the second degree. The
strong point of defense was that prior
TO the shooting the prisoner frequently
declared that lac was the owner of Penn
Haven junction, telegraph, locomotives
AMI all, ana this was proven by eight or
nine witnesses, leading to the belief that
he was a monomaniac on that subject
and that probably accounted for the
sallen exasperaton when Hogan order
ed him out ana the shooting which i'm
mediately followed lie was sentenced
to cleycn years ana nine months IN the
Eastern Penitentiayy.

Not Liable for Icy Pagem outs.


The case Of Hunter vs.. Wanamakcr,
just decided by the Supreme Court, bears
upon a subject Of interest at this time
the liability Of property-owners for the
slippery condition of their pavemcnts.
The plaintiff was walking along Thir-
tecnth street, Philadelphia, on the pave
ment fronting on Wanamaker's store,
which was in a very slippery condition
from snow and ram. She slipped and,
falling, struck the back of her neck near
the base Of the brain upon the edge OF
an iron ccl'ar-door which covered an
area belonging to the store, and which
had been left open about one foot and
propped up with can. The main
question in the case was as to whether
the slippery condition of the pavement
or the condition of the iron cellar-door
was the proXimate cause of the accident.
The lower Court thought that under
these facts the defendant was not liable
for plaintifT's injuries and entered anon
suit. A writ oferror having been taken
to the Supreme Court, that tribunal, in
the decision referred to, has just affirmed
the judgment.
