DENNIS MAVERICKS ESTATE.
A Case in Kentucky in which Florence
Maybrick Is Interested.

The famous Maybrick case came up locally
at Louisville, KY, yesterday afternoon in the
United States circuit court in that city, when
David Armstrong, the well-known lawyer, filed
papers which may have something to do with
the famous murder trial in Liverpool which is
now attracting the attention Of the world.
Mr.. Armstrong filed a lot of papers which
seemed to be an agreed case involving the dis
position Of the estate Of Mrs. Maybrick should
she be hanged. The title of one Of the suits goes
on to say: Caroline E. Won Rogues, citizen of
the empire of Germany; Florence Maybrick, a
citizen of the kingdom of Great Britain; James
@. Maybrick and Gladys e. Maybrick also
citizens Of the kingdom Of Great Britain, the
two OF whom are the children of Florence E.
Maybrick, infants twelve years of age, bring
this suit against VIM. H. Gardner of New
York and John T. Ingraham of Missouri, to
compel them to act as trustees of the estate
OF Dennis Maybrick, whose will was filed
for probate in the surrogate's Office in the
city of New York in 1858. The princi-
pal petitioner, Florence E. Maybrick, says
these guardians never qualified after their
appointment, and she asks that the court COM
pei them to act Her petition is signed in
Liverpool, where she is in Jail under death
sentence. The petition states that there is
some property belonging to her in Kentucky,
and this is one OF the reasons why the case was
filed in the circuit court of the United States in
Louisville

A Blue Lohster.

genuine blue lobster of good size has been
captured at Marshfield, Mass, by Henry P.
Taylor. Nothing of the sort has been found
before in those waters although a case was
reported some years ago from Long
Island sound. Mr.. Taylor's lobster is OF a pure
ultramarine blue of handsome shade. Along
the back the color Of this singular crustacean is
as light as a robins egg, and in the Joints of
the shell shades away to delicate cream
color. In an ordinary lobster these parts
would be shaded in dark and light
greens. The claws Of the blue lobster
are slightly mottled in shades Of blue
and purple on top and most delicate cream
underneath. Mr.. Taylor's lobster car has
been center Of interest for the curious since
the capture. 1t was caught in an ordinary pot
and it differs in no way except in color from
other Holsters. 1t will be boiled for the
sake Of seeing to what color it will turn during
the process.

The Duelists Nav Escape

Birmingham, Ala, special to the New York
Herald says: 1t seems that Messrs Calhoun and
Williamson, the Georgia duelists, will not be
brought to Alabama. Gov. Seay instructed the
prosecuting attorney OF Cherokee county,
where the duel was fought, to secure indict-
ments against the principals and seconds If
possible.
At first it was not certain that the encounter
took place in Alabama-the ground was so
near the line. When the question was settled the
solicitor tried to find citizen of Alabama who
witnessed the duel, but SO far he has not been
successful. 1t seems that only Georgiaps wit
messed it, and they cannot be brought to Ala
bama to testify before grand jury.
The officers of Cherokee county are keeping a
close watch, and il any of the witnesses should
enter the state they will be imme diately sum-
moned before the grand jury. This service
would then be legal. They could be held as
witnesses and required to give bond for their
appearance at the trial. Unless witnesses can
be caught in this way the prospects are that
Calhoun and Williamson will escape indictment
and arrest.

From the London Star.
Sarah Bernhardt's latest catastrophe with
her jewels is too good to miss getting into print
1t seems that Dona Sol left her jewels in cab
and on discovering her loss few off to Scotland
Yard and there found them safe and sound.
When asked, however, to pay the usual per-
centage on recovered property, and finding
that this commission would in the present in
stancs amount to f165, she was furious and
called it an imposition and asked to see the
project de police. The guardian of the pence
who was attending to her assured her. in his
most plausible manner, that she could not
see the chief without an appointment, where
upon Sarah exclaimed: why not? can zee
the prince of Wales without an appointment!
Why not the chief Of police2" Finding argu-
ment, however opposite, of no avail, la grande
tragedienne betook herself to Essex street,
to her solicitors, who told her that the police
in this case had the law on their side, but ad-
vised her to return to Scotland yard and ask
what was the lowest they would take. Sarah
therefore returned and asked whether they
could not remit part of the commission,
Whereupon she was informed that consider
ing the circumstances Of the case, they would
''knock off" f100 and let her of with E65,
which was promptly handed to the fortunate
cabman.

for length Of time.
Il cannot in the least explain how it got
there" said Mr.. Cash. when interviewed Mon
day, but there is the negative and you can see
for yourself" And it can only be said that
the woman is Enthusiastically shown. 1t is no
shadowy likeness, difficult to detect, nor does
it require pointing out before the lines can be
traced, as with the puzzle pictures so COM
monty seen. The face and head are clearly
outlined; the arms are hanging straight by the
side of the body, which is clad in ordinary
female attire and is visible to the waist, and
the portrait generally appears to be that Of
tail and comedy young woman.
There Is nothing repulsive in the photograph,
although il looks weird and ghost-like The
first idea naturally suggested was that the pho
togrsph plate had really detected BODY
which was invisible to the naked eye. Unable
to account for the apparition, Mr. Cash COM
municated with the borough police, one of
whom was so struck with the reality of the
picture that he at first imagined it to resemble
some woman in town and inquired whether she
had lately been heard of. Next morning and
very properly SO. the river was dragged at
this particular spot but no body was found
and so far, therefore, the climax OF the narra-
tive is happily left wanting. 1t is a perplex king

The Irish railways bill came up in the British
house Of commons yesterday and Mr.. Handel
Cossham, radical member for east Bristol,
moved to recommit. In speaking in support
Of his motion he advised the government to

same grave as now held all there was mortal OF
the once hopeful tithes bill
Mr.. Samuel Storey, radical member for SUM-
derland, also spoke, violently denouncing the
measure as one intended by it's projectors to
work the Generalization OF the Irish people,
and one which he had no doubt would accom-
plish the desired result. The only people, he
claimed, who could possibly be benefited by this
proposal TO build railways in Ireland at the ex-
Pense of the Irish-English taxpayer were the
Irish landlords.
After considerable heated debate the motion
was rejected by vote Of 156 to 80. The minor

and mosquito netting. They dubbed her the
huckleberry queen, and this cognomen she has
retained ever since. Few residents in northern
Indiana have not heard Of her and her daring
exploits. Every year Queen Mat appears in
camp with the opening of the picking season;
she Is not q good woman BY any means, and
her mode of living has scarcely been conducive
to the preservation of her beauty, still she re-

A COLORED EDITORS VIEWS.
He Tells the Whites That the Negroes
Would Run the Country Better.

An article in . paper at Selma, Ala, edited
BY colored preacher named Bryan, has
created stir in Alabama. In the last issue
the paper contained an editorial abusing the
whites for various injunctions against the col
ored race and concluding a. follows;
"were you (the whites) to leave this south
land in twenty years il would be one Of the
grandest sections Of the globe. We would
show you moss-back crackers how to run .
country. You would never see convicts, half
starved, depriving honest workingmen Of an
honest living. It Is only matter OF time when
throughout this whole state affairs will be
changed, and hope to your sorrow. We were
never destined to always be servants, but like
all other races will and must have our day; you
now have yours. You have received your
revolutionary aud civil wars, and we here pre-
dict that at no very distant day we will have
our race war, and we hope, as God intends,
that we will be strong enough to wipe you out
OF existence and hardly leave enough Of you
to tell the story. It is bound to come, and just
such hot-headed cranks as the editors Of some
OF the democratic journals are just the right
set to hasten it."
The whites in Selma are taking steps to pre-
vent the Rev. Mr.. Bryan, who is now absent
from the city, from ever coming back. The
executive committee Of the white republican
protection tariff league, with headquarters at
Birmingham, met there yesterday and passed
q resolution denouncing the editorial as incen-
diary and dangerous and rendering their moral
and, II necessary, their physical aid to stop such
utterances,

five months. The others were imprisoned for
terms of five months downward. To show

French DIPLOMATIC Sensations

The Nouuelte Reoue of Paris publishes an
other of its sensational articles on diplomatic
subjects, which leaves the diplomats as before,
in state of wonder as to where the editor,
Madame Adam, gets her information. The
present article throws some light on the rela-
tons between Germany and Belgium and as
sert that an understanding exists whereby
Germany has undertaken to defend King Leo
pold against aggression in a certain contingent
cy. 1t is asserted in Paris that the govern
ment has decided to appoint commission to
investigate into the methods by which Madame
Adam has contrived to secure access to the
contents OF such important state papers as her
articles show her to have been familiar with.
