A Woman Who Wrote Love-Letters fer

A Woman who Wrote Love-Letters fer
Another Thinks She should Be Paid.
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Ind, Feb. Am
old lawsuit is again occupying the atten-
ton of our court, and Judge Harvey is
at loss how to rule on the points of the
case, because he is unable to find any
similar case on record. The case has
been in court several times, and it was
supposed the matter had been dropped.
Years ago Mrs. Nancy Martin, who Then
lived near Linden, secured the services
of Franklin Leet, who lived with her,
to write love letters for her, as she did
not feel able to perform this task herself
Mrs. Martin became acquainted with
p. A. King, and, in the course of time,
they were married, his correspondence
having been answered by Miss Leet.
After living together for Gmost two
years, Mrs. King died, without recon-
pensing Miss Leet for her valuable serv-
ices in wording the love letters SO as to
catch husband, rs she claimed. Mrs.
King, however, had given her note for
$500 for services, and King, who was
appointed administrator. ignored this
note, which was on file when he settled
up the estate The suit is to set aside
the settlement of the estate in order to
get the note in a new settlement.

nearly $21 900, 600 capital have been re-
Gently organized for town buildings and
mineral developments in eastern Tennes-

opening up of several rich ore mines
The other companies organized are for

Cave Discovered Near Chattanooga,

CHATTANOOGA, Feb. IA cave has
been found under the suburb of High
land Park, the entrance being near the
Methodist church. The finder is a half
breed Indian, who probably had pointers
from the Cherokees, whose traditions
are to the effect that treasure is con-
cealed hereabouts. Twenty-Five men
are at work blasting out the passage,
which is at first very narrow, widening
into large underground rooms, which
seem to have been used in the past. 1t
is said by those who have explored the
cavern that where it runs under the
electric road line the current can be
distinctly felt, being grounded. The

It is not unusual to see half dozen half
grown boys skylarking in Thirty third
street, hatless, coatless, barefooted and
barelegged, though the mercury may be
fooling around zero. They work in big
wallpaper factory near by and the play
hour is between 10 and 1. When you are
hustling along with a heavy ulster but
toned to your chin and thinking of some
thing hot inside and then suddenly come
across these strapping barefooted lads rae
ing over the frozen streets, lodging among
the trucks and shouting, it makes the
cold chills run up and down your spine
The cheeks of these boys are fairly aglow
with ruddy health, and the frosty paving
stones seem to make no more impression
on their bare feet than on the iron shod
horses. Such grand thing is youth

terms after all.-New York Herald.
