A Curious Lease.

A Biddeford (Me.) attorney had in
his possession lease the like Of which
local lawyers do Inot believe can be
found in existence. The names of the
parties to sfe lease, according to the
Kennebec journal, are given, bR-t its
provisions are none the less strange.
The lease is of a lot of land at an an
nual rental of $40 for twenty-five
years, with the provision that the
lessee should within one year build
and maintain substantial three-story
building Of brick, iron and stone.
When the lease expired the lessee was
to have his choice. between buying the
building he had himself erected or of
taking perpetual lease of the lot at
$3.50 year, just double the original
rent. The lease expired a year or SO
ago, and the lessee, towhom it was a
case of ssHobson's choice" elected to
take the perpetual lease of the lot.
What puzzles the attorneys who have
seen the lease is why man of the
property which the lessee must have
been possessed should bind himself to
such one-sided condition. The gen.
tleman who has the lease intends to
present it to the Bar Library associa-
ton.

to society's pet danes and maidens, or
now and again stopped for a few min

Bertie Milverton had been the
''catch'' of many seasons, for. as the

to his fathers immense wealth and
property, and many Mayfair and Bel

| his features were almost feminine in
their perfection, although his piercing
dark eye and square jaw showed that

and determination of character. A
| long dropping mustache neutralized
the effeminate regularity of his classic
| face.
| In fact, he was about as good a type
of the English aristocracy as society
could boast, and one of the best known
and most admired men about town.
| Society wondered at his passing so long
heartwhole and unscathed through
such galaxy of beauty, until it had
almost assured itself that he was either
heartless or simply invulnerable to the
shafts Of Cupid.
Bruce Armitage, his friend and fell
low guardsman, was about the same
age as BERTHE, a fair specimen of a
modern Anglo-Saxon and the son of Sir
Nigel Armitage, a cavalry officer who
| had especially distinguished himself In
the Crimea.

''Hit hard old fellow?" said Bruce,
but Milverton replied: "Let us walk

However, they were unsuccessful,
| and, after an hour spent in fruitless
searching, they left the park.
Milverton went to his club, but the
beautiful face he had seen in the park

dressed for dinner, he could think OF
nothing else. and, although one of so.

SOUTHERN ENTERPRISES.

The BALTIMORE Manufacturers
Record in its weekly review
business conditions of the South.
says:
In surveying the whole fi-!d Of
Southern business enterprises it Is
seen that while here and there
weak points are found, some intere
ests and some sections showing no
material improvement, yet the gen
eral situation slowly but steadily
grows better. No one city, and IN
fact, no one State, makes any great
showing ot improvement when taken
by itself, but the aggregate Of aj-
yancement made by al! is very satls-
factory, This is indicated b. the
fact that the number of new induss
trial enterprises reported for the
first three months Of 1894 was G62,
against 436 for the preceding three
months, being a gain of 226.
The railroad outlook is encouraged
by the announcement that the Rich>
mond Terminal security holders are
in favor of the present reorgan zation
plan, Work on about twenty-five
miles of new line has been started in
Georgia and on an important road in
Texas. A group of thirty six South
ern roads report increased net earn
ings of $125,372, or 1872 per cent
for January, This is the only sec
tion Of the country showing an in'
crease, except the coal roads. The
extent of the immigration movement
is shown by reports elsewhere, which
indicate steady increase in tn.
