1t Was an Owl.

An amusing and exciting incident oc.
cured at the P, w. & B. French street
station shortly after 3 O'Clock yesterday.
1t was all caused ty present which had
been resolved by William Stewart, as
sistant division operator, from a friend.
1t arrived on the train from Philadelphia
and was in an ordinary paper shoe box.
1t was promptly delivered to Stewart,
who was much eIated over the gift and
started to undo the wrapping. AS he
opened the lid something flew in his
face. He uttered q startled cry and
dropped box and all. The other opera
tors were also startled. The present
proved to be an owl, which tapped
around the room until secured. 1t had
evidently been shot, as it had wound
on the left wing. Stewart, not knowing
what to do with the bird, presented it to
James Spencer, one of the porters.
Spencer will! keep it as pet.

SUPERIOR COURT CASES.
Verdict for the Defen dant in the Suit
ofAnsOn A. Maher VS.. ar. H.

In the case of Anson A. Maher Vs. DR..
Harry G. Moore before the Superior
Court yesterday the jury rendered ver-
dict for the defendant.
1t was an action to recover on a prom
issory note for $3.50 so, dated December
Is, 1897, given by Dr. Moore to Robert

which came into the possession OF Mr..

The plaintiff is the general agent in
Philadelphia of the Equitable Life In
surarce Company of New York, this
city being included in his district. Van
Buren, was one of his aeen,s. 1t was
maintained that Mr.. Maher had re-
ceived the note in good faith for cen.
sideration and that il should Le paid.
Mr.. Maher testified that he never gave
Van Buren authority to accept notes for
premiums.
Mr.. Maher was represented by Peter
L. Cooper, Jr., and DR.. Moore by William
5. Hiles.
DR.. Moore testified that Van Buren
had come to him and solicited life insur.
ance but he had said he could not afford
to take policy. Van Buren, told him
that this agency was anxious to increase
, its amount of insurance in the city OF
Wilmington and that if he would take
a policy Of $4,000 he could have it with
out paying any premium the first ye r.
DR.. Moore consented to this. When Van
Buren delivered the policy he told Moore
that he was short in his accounts with
the company and asked him to loan him
his note for $25O.50. promising that he
ivan Buren) would take care of it when
it became due and Moore would not
have to nay it.

| ing their verdict. The jury, however,

after which the jury was discharged
until Monday morning at 10 o'clock.

RAT DESERTED THE SHIP
Two days Later the Portland
Was Lost Of New Eng.

A SUPERSTITION VERIFIED
Frank Belt. q Member Of Uncle Sans
Navy, Relates q Singular Incl.
dent That Occurred Two
Days Before the Terri.
BILE Disaster.

A singular coincidence has come tn
light since the wreck J. Of the Portland,
which is OF local interest for the reason
that it waa witnessed by Frank Belt, Il
nephew ofZ James Belt, druggist, while
living alongside the Portland in the gun,
boat Vixen, we'll known in this city a.
the Josephine. ="
Mr.. Belt is now visiting in this city,
and the etory as related by him is as fol-
lows: .M' ''.
1--WE were lying in Boston harbor two
DAYS before the Portland left on her fatal
voyage al,ngside If her, when l noticed
big rat leave tie Portland and board
the Vixen. l lad often heard the sailors
cav that when the rats leave ship she
is doomed, but never thinking of the
saving, / called tn one Of the steamers
crew, saying: Mate, just saw q big rat
leave your ship and come aboard ns.' 2
"The man looked startled and said:
mate, I wish you had not told me that,
for IL will worry me. ="
Two days later the Portland sailed
although, it is said, that the captain had
orders not to sail, and madly rushed u
destruction off Cape Cod and thus the
sailor's superstition was verified.
The exact number ot persons who were
cal ried from ,oston by the Portland wi
probably never be known, as NO com
plete list of passengers was retained or
shore when the vessel left Saturday.
Frank Belt has been in the U. S
navy for 1S years and during, the Span
ish and American war served on the
Vixen, formerly the Josephine bough,
from P. A. B. Widener. When pur
chased by the government she was lying
at the wharves of the Harlan & Hollings
worth shipyard.
The Vixen has done excellent servict
during the war and Mr.. Belt will receive
shortly about 81, 800 prize money.
Mr.. Belt leaves this city today to joil
tie gunboat Wilmington, which vesse
he has been transferred.
