A NOVEL SUIT.
n Widows Right In 4S
Miles of Railroad Bed.

CHASE CITY, VA, March B.-(Special)
A unique railroad suit has been instituted
in the Circuit Court of Mecklenburg.
A brief history will explain 1t. In the
early 7Vs the road-bed of this projected
railroad from Keysville, Va, via Clarks-
Vile TO the North Carolina line, was COM
COMPLETELY abandoned. The track was
removed, and the land grew up in pines
and scrub oaks. All prospects Of con-
struction had passed away. There were
scme claims against the railroad COM
pany, held by J.. Il. Finch, then editor
Of a Mecklenburg county newspaper. The
Toad-bed. q strip of land extending from
Kevsyille to the North Carolina line. was
sold at public auction and purchased by
Mr.. Finch. This was about thirty years
ago. and the Richmond papers, in giving
reports of the sale, stated in humorous
vay that a whole railroad In Virginia had
been bought by an editor OF a country
newspaper The amount 1t was SOLD Tor
was not Of any magnitude.

Mr. l. e. Finch died in January OF this
year leaving a widow. IL appears that
tbts widow never relinquished her dover

AN AMUSING INCIDENT
one of the most amusing incidents con-
nected with the handling of the immense
crowd of people going to the launching
from Richmond and other points along
the line of the Chesapeake and Ohio rail-
way occurred here. 1t was advertised
that train would arrive here for our
crowd at S22 A. NJ. That hour came, and
train after train came by. all loaded 10
the utmost, but several stopped for
orders. On one of these was Superin-
tendent Doyle and other officials, who.
seeing the condition of affairs, gave
orders. after arriving at Newport News,
for a special 10 be sent up 10 Williams
burg for her 400. About IL o'clock the
special OF ten cars arrived, but 10! there
were only two passengers. and they the
president of Cas:Oria Club and another
member, these two worthless having re-
fused to be huddled and Jammed i'm with
the ignobile vulgus, and on the crowded
trains. SO they boarded the special, which
soon ratified off 10 Newport News, carry
ing only CastOria's representatives. The
conductor, Captain Herndon, when he
came through calling for tickets" SEEM
ed TO enjoy the joke as much as the
passengers" who were profuse In their
thanks TO the company for its considera-
ton and special courtesy 10 the mem
bers of our well-knOwn club.
Among those who lost at the hands OF
the plckpockets during the launching was
Mr.. Robert Henry Lee, who resides
few miles below town. Mr.. Lee had his
pants pocket picked of his pOcket-book,
containing $3.50. Mr.. Lee did not discover
his loss until some time afterwards,
when he had occasion to pay for some
thing and attempted to put his hand
down in his pocket and found the lining
pulled out and his book gone.
