The COreans Delayed the Train.

Five Coreans, in their peaked hats and
striking regalias that never fail to attract
attention, entered the Baltimore and
Potomac station the other night.
They were accompanied by a secretary,
who bought sleeping car berths for them
showed them to the car, and then left
them to take care OF themselves. A few
moments later the crowd in the depot
heard commOtion in the car.
The cause of the trouble was Sfis: The
secretary had forgotten to provide them
with their railroad tickets, and the con
ductor, on discovering it, had politely
informed them that they must get tickets
or leave the car. To the Coreans this
proposition seemed to be an effort on the
part of the railroad men to take advan-
tage of their ignorance of American Gus
toms, and they fatty refused to give up
a cent. The conductor expostulated
with them, but the more he talked the
more excited got the Coreans, and it was
finally decided to send a carriage for the
secretary.
On his arrival the matter was explain
ed and the tickets were purchased, but
the train had been kept waiting fully
fifteen minutes. Wtshing,onPyst.

A few evenings ago a Market Square

WON by A COW.
She Eats Some Hay Jus, in Time 10
Win S5OO.COO for Poor Farmer.

In September, 1871, Griffith Jones. q
farmer Of ForeStport, Oneida County, Y.
T., purchased nj tax sale tract Of 800
acres of land i'll The town of Allcganv.
Cattaraugus county. The tract WAS wild
and barren, in an isolated region, and
its owner, James Hill. had ceased pay
ing taxes on il and had removed from It.
Jones, who was man of limited means,
paid $50 for the property, but after
visiting it he concluded that it was not
worth putting any more money IN, and
he paid no more attention to the pur-
chase beyond securing his tax deed on
the 23d of September. 1873, tive years
after the date of purchase, which geNc
him legal title to the land. In 1879 pc
trOleum was discovered in Allcgany.
Hill assumed control again of the tract
he had abandoned. and transferred it to
.he Bradford Oil Company. This com
pany drilled wells on the tract, and it
proved TO he valuable and large pro
duccr of oil. Jones was ignorant of tn"
sudden great value the tract he held tho
deed for had been given 10y the oil dis
covery until lSSO, when it had yielded
more than S3o0,00O worth of oil. and
was still a great pro luccr. Jones brought
suit against the oil company IN the Cat
taraugus County Court to regain pos
session of the tract and for an account.
ing for the oil that had been taken from
it and sold for the profit of the com
pany. The company disputed Jones B,
title to the property in the clause III tho
tax sale law of New York State which
makes tax deed invalid if the pur-
chaser does not serve on the occupant of
premises bought at tax sale notice to
redeem the same within two years. The
oil company asserted that Hill was occu-
pying the premises when the deed was
passed TO Jones, and received no re-
demption notice within the required
time, and the occupancy was claimed as
the novel point of law that although
Hill WIS not living on the tract, he had
left quantity of hay i'll shanty on the
place when he moved of Of it, which
gave him LEGAL domicilc.
This was the entire defence To- thC
suit, and the Cattaraueus court decided
that if the simple fact of there being hay
on the place, as claimed, could be- estab-
lishcd, ii would hc ample proof of occu-
pancy in law, and would destroy Jones's
title to the property. The trial resulted
in favor Of the oil company in lSS2. a
new trial was granted, and Jones proved
by six witnesses that on the 22d of Sep
tember, 1873, one day before he became
entitled to the property under the tax
deed, Hills COW had entered the shanty
and eaten all the hay that Hill left there,
thus depriving Hill of legal domicilc,
and leaving no one in occupancy of the
premises. by that act of Hills COW
Jones's title to the property was estab-
lished, and Jones obtained a verdict for
an accounting for the oil, which amount
ed to nearly half a million dollars.
The oil company obtained an order
for a new trial, but Jones was again
successful, and his judgment was af-
tirmed by the General Term, and deci
sion has Just been given by the Court of
Appeals sustaining all the points in tho
case in favor of Jones.

And when the singer has left us, who cares

In the leaves deep drift in the forest what bird

Beneath whose shelter she builded her tedi-
ous love cradling nest

Forgotten Of sunshine and songster in the

But VIC we shrink from the leafs fate, and W c
murmur: "Soon they forget:
These friends whom we loved, who loved MS
and shared IN our pleasures and mirth.
Our names are lost in the silence death bringeth,
and no regret
Endureth FOR us. low lying in the green

Oh, mortal accept the omen; we live, we are

A California Ostrich Farm.

DR.. A. j. Sketchley, the ostrich breed
er and ostrich feather raiser, has been
for some time in Telhama County look
ing about for a suitable locality where
he may continue to conduct his peculiar
stock farm. He had definitely deter
mined to locate somewhere within n
radius of ten miles of Red Bluff, but
just where he had not decided until yes
terday, when he bought from Beers
Guyro 1000, acres seven miles north OF
the town and three miles from the Sac
ramentO River. The price paid was
$4,000. He will begin the erection of
buildings at once, and the birds will be
taken to their new homes with
in three weeks. He sold ont his
noted establishment at Anaheim two
years ago, and removed to about sixty
miles east of Los Angeles. Here he had
Just fixed himself and his long-legged
friends comfortably, when along came
the "boom," and soon the ostrich range
became an alluring town site. He
promptly accepted the ''boom" price
offered for his ostrich pasture, aid then
when he looked about for another To-
cality he found high prices still the
order. He decided to look further, and
n few months ago he became satisfied
that the upper end of the State offered
every advantage for his purpose. A
temperate climate, pure air and water,
and no possibility of snow, were the
things he sought for. He has told the
Tehama people that, so far as he can
Judge, that section of the country, in
excellence of climate and atmospheric
influences, is much better suited to make
ostrich life happy than where
he has been located. He want
ed large range for his lusty
birds, and places of 1000 acres were the
smallest he would look at. The ostrich
likes plenty of room, and settlers near
are usually willing to give the birds all
they desire in this respect. The property
offered him ranged in price from 50 to
$50 an acre He has already arranged
with the Southern Pacific for several
stock cars in which to transport his
feathery flock. He is still as enthusias
tic as ever regarding the Ostrich-feather
industry in which he was the pioneer in
this State. He has been successful in
Matching and raising many birds, and
will fit up his new farm with all neces-
sary arrangements for young birds. The
place selected is the best that DIR.
Sketchley has found in the State, having
climate like that Of the Transvaal III
South Africa, where he was for ten years
engaged in ostrich farming.

A woman appeared and entered the

she went by. Tall and finely formed,
her poor dress scarcely hid the noble
carriage of her head and shoulders; an
absent, hsrassed look detracted from her
beauty.
"Why don't you go to work." The
voice was pleasant, the words perempt-
ory. The speaker paused ere he, too, en-

clear cut face and bril- ght, keen eyes. A
rare smile gave gentleness to an other
wise stern countenance. His general
appearance bespoke the master.
