An Old Maid From Scotland Wei

New York, May IA little. dried up
old man, who appeared to have seen many
years of hard toll, stood on the Allan
State Line dock Wednesday and eagerly
scanned the faces Of the passengers dis
embarking from the steamer Grecian At
last a woman, also thin and Withered, and
showing that she, too had tOiled for many
years, came over the gangWaY.
The little old man saw her, made a
rush. and then there was meeting, the
ardor of which would put to blush the
best efforts of many a younger couple
They were sweethearts. The little man
was William ClEuicSshank, of BroOkdale
Farm. Red Bank, n. j.. and the woman
was Miss Mary Ann Taylor, from Lenabo,
Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
They had been lovers in the heyday of
youth in Bonny Scotland, but something
came between them and William married
another He went to Canada where his
wife died, and then he came to the United
States. where he followed the occupation
of expert gardener William finally grew

placed upon a sofa.
The little old man consu ted the clerk
about registering and then he wrote

Roberts, you had better take her to your

This suggestion startled the little old
man, who observed timidly and conf

wife yet, but she will be if YOU can assist
me, and that, too, in a hurry"
The couple was welded within an hour

PRESS ASSOCIATION SCRIP.
The Question of the Right to Mortgage
the Scrip Decided BY a Court

the Scrip Decided BY a Court.
Washington, May il.-Among he cases
disposed OF yesterday in the supreme
court of the United States was one in
which newspaper publishers were ,spec-
tally interested. 1t was the case Of the
Metropolitan National Bank Of New York
vs.. the st. Louis Dispatch Company and
Henry l.. Sutton. trustee. appealed by the
plaintiffs from the circuit court for the
Eastern district Of Missouri Involved
~ the case was the question whether or
not certificate of membership
IN the Western Associated Press was so
TAR within the restriction of "a mortgage
that 1t remained subject thereto until the
debt which il was given to secure had
been discharged The court did not ind
1t necessary in explicit words to PASS
upon this point, but disposed OF the case
on different grounds. y note for $1,000
was given by the st. Louis Dis
patch Company on June |, 1877 to
run thirty months, which passed into
the possession OF the AletlOpol
Bank. To secure its payment mortgage
was given covering ali the property ana
franchises of the Dispatch company
present or to be acquired during the life
of the note, including the certificate of
membership in the Western Associated
Press. Before the note became due the
property OF the Dispatch was sold under
a second mortgage, consolidated
with the Post and published
as the Post-Dispatch by the Dispatch
Publishing Company, until the date when
the $1,000 note was due. The Dispatch
Publishing Company paid the interest,
put refused to pay the principal of the
note at maturity, Dec. !, 1873. The bank
did not file its bill or complaint
until July /, 1887. Ii then
asked that the property acquired by
the successor to the Dispatch company,
including the new certificate of member
snip IN the Western Associated Press, be
held subject to the lien of its mortgage,
but the court below sustained the de-
murer to the bill and ordered its dis
miSsal.
The supreme court in an opinion pre-
pared by Chief Justice Fuller
athrmed this judgemnt of the
circuit court on the ground of
laches on the part of the national
bank complaint. Discussing the press
franchise branch of the case the chief
justice says: Apparently the association
had right to accord or deny the priv
lcge of membership as it saw fit, and
whether its action in the admission of the
new corporation to membership was
wholly independent of certificate No. 80
tthe one held by the old Dispatch company
and covered by the mortgage at
issuel or based upon the substitution of
one share for the other, it would seem to
follow upon assumption that membership
could be pledged or mortgaged without
It's consent, that the association was
directly interested in the contention
raised by the complainant in respect of
that action, and that the circuit court
was right in holding that the question
ought not TO be determined in the absence
of the association as a party"

ARRESTED FOR MURDER.
a Prominent Farmer of Suwannee
County Behind the Bars.

Waycross, Ga, May Hanson
Carney, prominent farmer of Suwannee
county, Florida, was arrested, brought
here and put in Jail last evening on the
charge of having murdered a negro dur
ing a drunken row at Patterson, Ga,
thirteen years ago. For thirteen years
Carney has resided in his Florida home in
peace, having accumulated some wealth
and made many friends. During his young
days he was frequently on drunken
sprees and was considered by his neigh
bors as a reckless young man. He is well
known in Pierce county, where he used to
live before he became a fugitive from
justice. He is over 80 years old The
circumstance of the murder is distinctly
remembered by him, but strange to
say he fails to remember the name of the
murdered negro. He was drunk at the
time the murder was committed, and
says that he does not recollect having
done the killing. His friends and rela-
tives in Pierce county are making an eff
fort to have him released on bail
The case is singular on account of its
long standing and is exciting comment.
A bond will probably be made to-day by
his friends.

WANTS a RECEIVER NAMED.

A Member of Big Drug Firm Of
Atlanta Dissatisfied With the Man
agement.
Atlanta, Ga. May 11.-W. A Mat
thews, a member of the Haltiwanger,
Taylor Drug Company, filed a petition in
the clerks Office this afternoon asking the
appointment of receiver for the com
pany. The concern is a chartered cor
poration. Mir Matthews says in his pc
tition that a year ago Mr.. Haltiwauger,
thrOgh the representation that
he, Haltiwanger, would manage
the business, induced him 10
put $1,000 into the company Knowing
that Mr.. Haltiwanger was a good bus!-
ness men Mr. Matthews says ne had no
hesitation in investing his money.
Shortly after he went into
the corporation Mr.. Haltiwanger
placed a young man named Nernooy,
a nephew OF one of the stockholders, in
charge Of the company's affairs. Since
the change in management, the petition
states, the value Of the stock Of the com
pany has shrunk $4,000. Therefore, in
order to protect his interests, he asks
that receiver be appointed. This is one
of the largest drug houses in the city.
The case will be heard on May 90

THE INSTINCT OF LOCALITY.

From the London spectator,
A cat carried 100 miles in a basket, a

inquire more carefully as to what these

ROBBED BY The UMPIRE.
Tine Game Called on a FlimSy Claim
Of Darkness.

Savannah Was at the Bat With Only
One Man Out When the Umpire Got
in His Work-She Was Batting
Macon's Pitcher All over the Field.
Macon. Ga. May 1l-After magnlti-
cent exhibition of ball playing lasting two
hours and fifteen minutes, the Savannah
Macon game was called on account OF
darkness. and the game will. in all proba-
bility. be called draw. The
light was bad when the game
was called. but at first the
opinion prevailed that Umpire Har-
rinrton had stolen the game by forcing
back to even innings and robbing Savan-
nah of five runs made in the ninth. The
Macon people We're outraged, and there
was serious talk among the directors and
others Of refusing to accept the game
and asking Manager Manning to play of.
Rule 81 of the national rules,
however. is explicit, though Umpire Har-
rington wired Nick Young tonight for an
explanation of the rule.
Petty was in the box for Savannah to
the surprise of the home people, but the
home team got onto him in great shape,
and did some lively hitting.
Up to the ninth inning the score stood
Q to in favor of Macon. Then Miller's
arm gave out, and Beard foolishly called
Twitchell in from left field to the box.
Twitchell has not pitched for a long time
and was lust what McGarr wanted. The
bases were full when Miller left the box,
and McGarr straightway hit Twitchell
for clean home run, bringing in three
other men, and making five runs in that
inning
The visitors were, perhaps, a little rat
tied by the Unprecedented bad luck of Cross
at short and at the bat, but altogether
Savannah played magnificent game.
The features of the game were the base
running of the visitors, and the excellent
headwork of the home team.
There is a difference of opinion still as
to whether the game should have been
called with one man out, but it was GER
tain that the light was poor and the fair
est way was that taken by Umpire Har-
Iington.
