AN UNFORTUNATE HEROINE. Among the
guests at the Lake Mohonk House, last
weelx, of which A. X. Smiley Is the pro-
prietor, was family named Brink, OF
New York City. The care Of bright
boy OF the family, who is about nine years
OF age, was entrusted to German maid,
who attended the lad In his numerous ex-
petitions about the country. Last Friday
afternoon the pair went out for ramble,
aud, while walking along the bluff just
above the lake, the boy ventured too Gloss
to the edge Of projecting rock and, los
ing his footing, disappeared into the water
twenty feet below. Without moments
hesitancy the woman sprang after tho
child, and, clutching hold OF him, the two
struggled In the water until boating
partys attention was attracted ID the
scene. The brave woman held the boy
above water until the rescuing party was
close at hand, when her strength seeming
| ly gave out and she sank out OF sight be-
fore any one could render assistance. The
boy was rescued. BY the means OF Crap
pliug irons the maids body was recovered
some hours afterward. The name Of the
heroine was Attalie LANCE, and she was
twenty-four years OF age.

A pLuCKY coMMuTER.

The famous case of Henry G. Atwater,
OF East Orange, against the Delaware,
Lackawanna g. Western railroad for
So, 600 damages for refusing to sell him
Communication ticket over the road from
East Orange, was before Justice Knapp
In the Supreme Court In Jersey City, on
Saturday. Mr.. Atwater was a commuter
on the road. One day in February, 1885,
he left his Communication ticket at home.
He offered the conductor OF the train u
regular ticket, with the request that the
conductor should not punch 1t, but should
hold II as security until the next day,
when Mr. Atwatcr would show him his
Communication ticket. The conductor re-
fused to accept such an arrangement and
some words followed, Mr.. Atwater finally
paying his fare, and losing the ride TO
which his Communication ticket would have
entitled him.
At the end of the month, when Mr..
Atwater went to the company's Office to
purchase new communication ticket, the
agent said he had received instructions
from the main office OF the company not
TO sell him ticket, because he had vio-
lated rule of the company under which
communication tickets were sold. He had
to purchase regular tickets after that.
He took the matter to the courts, and
after three years fighting in all the courts
OF the State, he got mandamus compell-
ing the company to sell him a commuta-
ton ticket. The Court OF Errors and
Appeals affirmed this judgment. There
was an unusual amount Of interest In the
case. because the decision settled dis
puted point in law regarding the right
OF railroad companies TO refuse to carry
persons at special rates.
After he got his mandamus MIR. At
water sued the company for the extra
fare he paid while he was without COM
mutation tickets, aud also for damages 10
his reputation, alleged to have been sus-
tanned. The case on Saturday came up
on a demurrer of the company to the
declaration in the suit. For the COM
papy. 1t was urged that the declaration
made the action wrong done by the
company, while in fact 1t was simply a
breach OF contract. Justice Knapp over
ruled the demurrer and ordered the case
to take its place on the calendar. This
makes the tenth victory Mr.. Atwater has
secured over the company since the
original suit was brought. Montctaa'
