ssSootion 30"

Secretary Francis has rendered an.
other decision in the case of Minnesota
against William Craig, involving q 40.
acre tract of land embraced in tho
''Section 30" case. The decision was
on a motion fled by the state for re-
view of the departmental decision, in
which Secretary Smith affirmed the
commissioner decision denying the
suites application for a hearing to de-
termine whether the land was swamp
at the date of grant in 1850. The pres
ent secretary denies the motion very
briefly. He says there is no speciaca-
ton of errors set forth, ''clearly and
concisely," as required by the rules of
practice, and further, that the argu-
ment presented does not raise any new
point of law or fact presented by tho
state which would warrant a review Of
the previous decision. This probably
disposes Of the contest over one of the
most valuable tracts of land in Mime
sofa, which has been before the IN
terror department in one way and an
other for the past ten years.

GRANTING LETTERS PATENT.

A French patent is issued for Is years
and is subject to an annual tax of $40,
being revoked upon nonpayment.
The first applicant for an invention
or device receives the patent in Great
Britain, whether he be the real inventor
or not.
Colaborers who jointly have invented
device are entitled to joint patent.
Neither can claim one separately from
the other.
All applications for issuance of let
ters patent must be made in writing to
the commissioner of patents at Wash
ington city,.
A British patent covers England, Scot
land, Wales, Ireland and the Channel
islands, but not cne of the British colo
MES.
In Germany patent may be taken
out for one or any other number of years
up to IS, on payment of progressive
annual tax.
The German patent Office refuses to
grant a patent to an inventor who has
previously patented his invention in the
United States.
A Canadian patent may be granted
for three terms of six years each, the ap-
plication for the full term of 1S years
costing $50.
Rigid examination is made into every
claim, and no patent will be issued
which seems to infringe upon the rights
of previous patentee.

Marvellous Results

From letter written by Rev. j.
Gunderman, of Dimondale, Mich, we
are permitted to make this extract: Il
have no hesitation in recommending
DIR. Kings New Discovery, as the re-
SUITS were almost marvellous in the case
of my wife. While was pastor of the
Baptist Church at Rives Junction she
was brought down with Pneumonia
succeeding La Grippe. Terrible parox-
ysms of coughing would last for hours
with little interruption and it seemed
as if she could not survive them. A
friend recommended DIR. Kings New
Discovery; it was quick in its worl,
and highly satisfactory in results

OHIO VALLEY LEAGUE
May BE Organized with Eight Cities, All
Supporting semi-Professlonal Clubs
at Present, Meeting to be Held.


Supporting Semi-Professiona1 Clubs
at Present, Meeting to be Held.
Sistersville, w. Va, July TO- An ef-
fort is being made now to organize
what is TO be known as the Ohio Val
ley League, which will include the
ball clubs of Sistersville, Huntington,
Parkersburg, Charleston, Marietta,
Ironton, Portsmouth and GAINESVILLE.
Since the opening of the season there
has been talk OF organizing this league,
but to date the managers of the various
clubs have not been able to get togeth
er, and it looked for awhile as though
there would be no league organized.
Since the management of the local
club has gone into new hands the mat
ter of league has qeen revived, and
from present indications it will be
formed inside of few days. All the
managers of the teams mentioned have
signiied their willingness to join the
proposed league, and it is likely that a
meeting for the purpose of considering
the matter will be held in couple of
days.
1t is likely that the meeting will be
held at Marietta, as the manager of
the team there has signifed his will
ingness to defray the expenses of the
meeting if that place is decided upon.
In orga nizing this league, it is the in
tention to have better class of games
mall of the places mentioned and to
cut down the expenses of the team as
much as possible. All the teams men.
toned have been playing good ball
and the towns are supporting them
handsomely
The managers of the home team haye
worked hard to form the proposed
league for the reason that it has been
a hard matter to get teams to come
here to play. The local team has only
lost three games, and the majority oi
the teams in the valley are afraid o
them.

Allegheny City Joins Other Pennsyi-

But Praise for the Little

From Pittsburg Post.


From Pittsburg Post
There are many citizens of Allegheny
who speak just as enthusiastically as
does the following resident of our city.
Our representative has investig ated
the numerous cases, and there appears
to be not the slightest shadow of doubt
that the work of the little conqueror is
all the people claim it to he. This re-
port comes from 1877 West End avenue
where resides Mrs. q. w. Mcpherson:
Mrs. Mcpherson is wonderfully
pleasant woman of middle age, and is
ut present picture of health. II
haven't always been SO, though" she
said, during conversation the other
day. II was a very sick, misera BILE
woman until Doan's Pills brought me
back to.health and happiness. l was
troubled with weakness in my back,
and backache for years. About year
ago it got SO bad that | found the dis
ease going all over me, and attacking
other vital organs For instance, my
stomach became so disordered that
thought had dyspepsia, and my head
ached so constantly that l grew to
think some terrible disease that would
ultimately attack my brain had fasten-
ed it's grip on me. The pain in my
UdCh grew WolSc, anu was Sndrp uuIi
piercing. l couldn't sleep at night
could scarcely do thing in the line OF
bousework; in fact, was utterly miser-
able and discouraged. l tried physi
clans and every medicine / could heal
Of but they did me no good.
Late last fall | saw Doan's Kidney
Pills advertised, and at once got DO,
at the store of f. H. Eggers, on Ohio
street, Allegheny. Within one week
began to feel better, and now, aftel
having taken little over two boxes,
can say emphatically that l am we'll
/ never felt better in my life than l d,
now. l have recommended Doan'
Pills to at least half dozen womel
who suffer just as 1 did, and / know
that they will find in them health ant
strength"

the primitive fire apparatus at hand
to check the progress Of the flames.
The fire wiped out one entire block

broken Watch Springs Used by
These Ingenious Swallows in
Switzerland.
A striking illustration Of the skill Of
birds in building their nests is in the
museum Of natural history at SoIeure,
Switzerland, where there is a birds
nest made entirely Of steel. There are
number Of clock-making establish
ments at Soleure, and in the yards Of
these many broken clock and watch
springs Of all sizes are scattered about.
One day a clockmaker noticed in a.
tree in his yard a swallows nest Of Pc
culiar appearance. He climbed up to it
and found that a pair Of wagtails had
built a nest almost entirely of clock
springs. It was more than four inches
across and perfectly comfortable for
the birds.
In the fall, after the young birds had
grown up and the whole family had
fitted southwark for the winter, the
nest was carefully taken down and re-
moved to the museum. New York
