Judge StIout has had before him within a
few days an interes ting equity case, that of
Daniel Hanson VS.. Eliza beth H. Hanson. ct
al.
The complainant is of Old Orchard, and
the defendant of North Berwick. The suit
involves the title to house and lot which
came to Elizabeth Hanson by absolute deed,
but which the plaintiff claims was in reality
given to secure a debt, and therefore may
be redeemed.
The house in question is situated in North
Berwick, and therea is quite little story
back of the suit. Daniel Hanson ard Eliza
beth II. Hanson were formerly man ana
wife, but are now divorced. In 1856, whom
they were living as man and wife, Mr.. Han
son alleges that he bought the house, bor-
rowing $500 of Mrs. Estes, his wife's mother,
with which to pay fer it. He claims that he
transferred the house to Mrs. Estes by alb
! soiute deed, bet with the understanding
that it was merely TO secure the debt. Later
Mrs. Estes transferred the louise to her
daughter, Mrs. Hanson. About 1879 Mr..
and Mrs. Hanson separated. and In 1887 a
divorce was grant ed. In 1891 Mr.. Hanson
began this suit A grown up son assists his
mother to defend.

And the Leg Broke.

Last week country negro named
i'um Thompson was gcing back to
his home across tho river when he
met with what soomed to be worry
soriouis accident. 1t seems that
Lum had como to town early last
week and was returning homo with
tho proceeds of two bales of cot
ton. Part Of tho proceeds wore in
goods stored away in tho wagon,
part in money and q third portion
of it in skin full of bug juice.
Just as Lum nearod tho bridge he
reoled and fell off tho wagon seat.
Greatly to tho horror Of those who
saw the fall the front wheel of tho
wagon passed ovor his leg, break
ing it off short just below the kneo.
The crack Of tho breaking could bo
distinctly heard by those on tho
sidewalk near about, and some mon
not frozen to the spot by the sight,
ran to the assistance of tho unfor-
tunato man. No doctor was called
In the oXcitoment, but q man more
practical than tho others set about
repairing the damaged log. He
got two pieces Of wood, a hammer,
somo nails, and in q few minutes
Lum's leg was as stout as ever,
though not SO symmetrical. Lum
was a wooden-legged man.-Macon

Death in ~ SaraIinc.

An unknown dog suffered an ag-
onlzlng death on Fisherman's
wharf, for which he himself was to
blame. The canine was foraging
for vlctuals-anything to ally the
pangs of hunger--and his rambles
brought him to tho feet of young
Guido Zaboni, tho rock cod hun
ter.
Guido had his baskets of set
limos, each geared with 200 hooks,
stacked up on the wharf. The
limos arc coiled as they are brought
back from the soa, and to many Of
the hooks tn, sardines used for
bait still cling. 1t was tho inten-
ton of the fisherman to remove
the remnants Of bait and rocoil the
lines for another trip, but the job
will probablw not bo finished until
lator on.
Aftor dumping half q dozen coils
on the dock Mr.. Zabeni retired to
sholtor of tho shed to light his pipe.
Tho dog, which had boon lurking
behind Il pile Of nets, snoaked out
and made grab for Il nico, iuicy
sardino in the middle of tho coil.
There was a keen, barbed hook in =
side OF the sardine, and tho hun
CRY cur got them both just as tho
returning fisherman shicd an cmty
basket at him. With q yolp the
dog leapcd forward, but fetched up
standing with tho hook buried doop
III his lower lip. The sudden Jerk
sent the stiifoncd colts flying in all
directions, whilo the startled dog
gyroted wildly in the vortex.
Each move sent fresh hook in
to some portion of his anatomy,
while Guido looked hclplessly on
lie dared not touch the mess for
fear Of getting snagged himself.
So the dog had things pretty much
his own way while he lasted. For
fully fivo minutes tho air was thick
with fish hooks, dog and springy
coils of dark rcd line. Tho noise
of the unequal combat was simply
terrific as the unhappy victim of
"pt'S'i'o '''" ~ puV SulelS SltlDDou
himself to death.
Gradually tho struggle grew
weaker and the shrieks of agony
died away. The dog had wound
himself up until he locked liko a
hairy ball of twinc, crimson dyed
in spots. A dozen taut drawn turns
about his mock finally chokod the
beast to death, but not until 1OC
hooks or moro had found lodgmcnt
in his flesh. Mr.. Zabeni cursed
copiously and toro his jot black
hair on beholding the work laid
for him but there was nothing tc
do but carve tho romans away
from tho barI,s or loso his Fishing
outfit. SO ho carved and cursed. -
