Important Cases Under the New
Tariff Decided.

NEW YORK, August 4.-The Board of Gen
eral Appraisers today rendered an import
ant decision on the construction of para
graph 1888 of the rew tariff act. which recent

tween the wool growers of Ohio and the car
pet manufacturers of New England. The
board reyerses the collectors decision in
both cases under consideration. holding that
the gray and yellow wool Of K. S. Hig-
gins d. Co., has been assorted only as to col
or, and the assessment on the white wool

"A MISSING HEiRESS.
Fortune Said to Await a Maine Fam
Tvs Adopted Daughter.

iyS AuoPteo DauSnter.
SAco, August 4.-Postmaster A. Stackpole
has recently received a number of letters
from the executors of large estate. asking
him to inquire into the whereabouts of a
girl who formerly lived in Saco, who had
fallen heir to half Of this property, the other
half going to her only sister. As 1t was re-
quested that serescy should be used in
making the inquiries the names cannot be
given, but sufficient of the story can be told
to be Of general interest. The girl was adop-
ted when four years old by family who
then resided in Saco, her sister residing
with another family within a few miles Of
here. In 1876 the family that had adopted
the child, hoping to conceal from her the
fact that she was not their own daughter,
and also to prevent her ever being claimed
by relatives, moved to another part of the
country and have been entirely lost track of.
The name of the family does not appear in
the Saco directory for 1875, and the search
for the young heiress, who must now, if
alive, be about 20 years old, is likely to be
prOtracted,

hERE'S A SNAKE SroRY
Farmer Emmons OF Lyman Spent
Sunday Killing Replies.

BIDDEFoRD. Me-, August Al. w. En-
mons, Lyman farmer. comes to the front
with snake story which is no fiction, but
which can be vouched for by dozen of his
neighbors. Sunday, Mr.. Emmons, while
walking over his farm, came upon striped
snakes nest and killed snake three feet
and nine inches long, and nine young snakes
eight inches long. A little later In the day
he found another nest, and there killed a
snake of the same species, which measured
three feet and ten inches, and thirty-four
young ones ten inches long. In the after
noon Mr.. Emmons's wife and little boy were
in the field picking blackberries, when big
snake ran between the little boys legs. Mrs.
Emmons told her husband, and he went out
with spear and killed this snake, which
measured three feet and eleven inches. The
snake showed so much fight that Mr.. EN-
mons concluded there must be young ones
around, and after a little search discovered
the nest In which he killed thirty-six young
ones, about foot in length. Mr.. Emmons
had grand snake layout in his yard that
afternoon, which many of his neighbors in
spected.
