A Baby Story.

A childless woman whose devotion to
other peoples children is proverbial among
her friends, one chilly day met in a
Fulton street shop the envied mother of
one of her little pets. After greetings she
inquired for the small Harold, was told
that he was well and was, in fact, at that
mon ent sleeping in his carriage at the shop
entrance his mother having brought him
shopping with her in the temporary loss
of nurse.
'V'hat a heartless thing to do" eX-
claimed the other, this very cold day.
Oh, it takes you favored mothers to neglect
your treasures"
In a few minutes the two separated, but
the thought of the little one, chilled per
haps and suffering, so wore upon the
woman who was not it's mother that she
resolved to go to the door and bring the
baby in. Hurrying to the entrance, she
picked the sleeping infant out of its downy
rugs and was carrying it, lovingly and
tightly held, when a distracted woman
breathlessly seized her.
Give me my baby! What do you mean

SURPRISED, but confident it was hel
friends baby she was protecting, she re

A Severe Eebuke.

The late Count de Nieuwerkerke was
one of the last survivors of the brilliant
court of Napoleon III. In those days he
was devoted in his attentions to the Prin-
cess Mathilde, and once, when that lady
had invited Edmond About, the author, to
dine with her, the count was announced,
and entering the room found the princess
and the au .hor chatting together. do

The princess instantly rang the bell, and
when the servant appeared she said, Give

The Oldest Iron Work.

In England, perhaps, the oldest existing
works in iron are hinges to doors, strength
ening bars, handles, escutcheons, lock
plates and the like. Even the nails were
things of beauty. Abroad the massive
doors of the Cathedral of Notre Dame de
Paris offer wonderful example of early
iron work Probably designed in the
twelfth century, the doors are nearly con
cealed with their decoration of trees and
birds, dragons and other grotesque beings.

DIR. Northrup, prominent physician
of Marquette, was quite seriously, if
not fatally injured, while watching the
railroad wreckers at work on the de-
rallied coaches near Mcmillan, Sunday
morning. The accident was caused
by severe blow in the stomach from q
large cable.
According to the Hurley Miner the
Duluth South Shore & Atlantic Rail
road has abandoned the idea of run
ming the range loop through Ironwood
as originally intended. The railroad
company has been forced to seek anoth-
er route through the action Of the
Ashland Mining Company in refusing
the right of way across the mine
property. Surveyors are now at work
running lines through Hurley the trend
being northwest from there TO the
main line. AS soon MS the surveys
can be mado and the depot grounds
secured the work of construction will
commence. There are only five miles
of track to build to complete the loop.

/ entertain this view and although the
tendency of the proof may be in this
case to show, that the libe was located
some twelve miles from the line Of
definite location, as exhibited by this
map, and as I understand it, more
than fifteen miles away from the these
idemnity lands which were selected and
which are the matter of controversy in
the present case, still the result must be
the same, and feel compelled to say
that agree with the plaintiffs counsel,
in the proposition, for it ultimately
reaches that limit, that If the load
never had been constructed at all, or If
the road had been run like rams
horn from fits northern terminus to
some place on the Wisconsin river, OF
to any other of the four quarters of the
globe; that if the governor certified, as
he did in this case. that the ROAD was
completed it must be understood that
he referred to the line of road accord
ing to the map of the definite location;
that is the construction that must be
put upon the governors certificate, and
that being so, it is conclusive, and it is
not competent in this case to set up any
claim upon ground which makes it
necessary for him to contest the truth
of those certificates by tho governors.
That seems to be all there is in this
case, as / view it. The result is,
gentlemen Of the jury, that inasmuch
as the facts here are not in controversy,
that is the facts in regard to any
material question in the case, it
resolves itself substantially into
question of law for. the court. 1t be.
comes the duty of the court to solve all
questions of law and give DIRECTION to
the jury III regard to their verdict
accordingly. In the opinion of the
court the law of this case is with the
plaintiffs and that they arc entitled
to recover the lands described in the
declaration and it is therefore your duty,
in the functions of the jury, to render
q verdict accordingly and carry these
instructions into effect. Your verdict
will be for the plaintiff.

The JUDGES Charge.


The following is the text of Judge
Severens' charge to tie jury in the suit
of the Ayers estate against Hastings B.
Bacon. 1t will be of interest to all
who are interested in Military Road
Lands.
Gentlemen of the Jay:-I presume
my views upon the laws in this case
have been already sufficiently explained
in the course of the introduction Of the
evidence, in the somewhat conversations
al way, in which the argument, on the
part of the counsel with the court, has
proceeded. In brief, while have no
sort of doubt that the intention of the
act OF congress was that the certificates
to be made by the governor
of the state of the completion OF the
road, upon which certificates final title
was to inure to the state or its
grantees-that the certificates meant
and indeed, were certificates of the
completion of the road, as defined on
its map of definite location. think it
is impossible to entertain any doubt that
was the intention of congress, and that
the construction of the road, construct
ed as this was-if, in fact, it was con-
structed-twelve miles away from the
line ms designed by the map of definite
location, was not such road as the act
of congress contemplated as one to
which the certificates of the governor
could apply; / say, while I have no
doubt upon that subject. the fact re-
mains, that upon the face of the record
Of the proceedings, which were had up
on the making of this grant ard the
acceptance of it by the state oflMichi-
gan and the certificates given by the
governor, who was made the person
| upon whose Judgement the completion
of the road was to he asceriaincd and
! determined that upon the face of this
record, rs exhibited in the present case,
it must be held that the certificate of
the governor, upon the question of fact
rs to whether this road, upon the line
of location as marked out by the map,
was completed, was final and complete
and it cannot, for any purposes, be
gainsaid, unless it bc upon bill filed
in the interest OF the United States flor
the purpose of canceling that certifica-
tion of the lands of the state upon the
ground that the general government
has been fraudulently dealt with, and
has parted with its lands upon false
representations.
Now it may all be true for aught l
know, and it may be all true consistent
