will be permitted to live within it's
limits. but the factories which will
furnish the industrial life of the town
will be owned by whites.
Lynch law. as practiced in the South,

Georgia. North Carolina and South

prove a success. other Northern settle.

British, French and German Demands
on Cuban Account.
Washington, May 16.-The state de-
partment has been informally advised
that claims aggregating considerable
amount have been made by British,
French and German residents in Cuba
during the recent instruction, and that
these ultimately will be presented
against the United States government.
The claims themselves have not yet
been presented. but are being collected
by the several foreign offices as the
claimants send them in. In some
cases, schedules have been made, and
the aggregate stated to the authorities
here. The French claims aggregate be-
tween 100000 and 100000
francs. The German claims are un-
derstood to be slightly under those of
the French, while the British claims
are said to be considerably more than
either the French or the German.

Uostly OAK CHAIR.

An amusing story IL told at the ak
pense OF Sir Donald Currie.
At recent auction sale Of old fur
niture held at Edinburgh chair was
put up whose back bore the carved
words: "Dunottar CASTLE" the name
Of the famous fort on the Scotch coast
near Stonehaven. which was built in
1S49. destroyed in 1715. Experts ex-
pected it might fetch about 925. The
bidding began at five pounds and soon
reached $50. when only two brokers
remained in the competition, which, to
the amazement Of everyone present.
advanced in bids Of five and ten pounds
to SIS, at which price the chair was
knocked down to the successful rival.
The result of this extraordinary sale
soon leaked out. Sir Donald had seen
the name on the back of the chair and
had commissioned an Edinburg broker
to buy it. Next day, forgetting what
he had done, he instructed Glasgow
broker to bid for the chair, and those
two were the rival bidders, with the re-
suit that Sir Donald is now the posses
sor of what is probably the most costly
oak chair in the world. Liverpool

2tGz21 ll3ltlD

A recent law case at New York
.hrows some light on Hungarian wine
making. One of the litigants is an
importer of Hungarian wines, and the
other was in the habit of furnishing

former, and he alleges that for five
years past he had manufactured par
ticular brand of tOkay. which the I'M
porter sold for medicinal purposes.
According to the evidence. the profits
Of the seller were large, for tokay,
which actually costs but 6 cents a bot
tie, was sold for $500.
Here's the sworn formula: Sixteen
gallons of acohol, $40 gallons OF wa
ter, $50 pounds farina sugar, 40 pounds
of honey, pounds OF tokay essence, 2
pounds lemon acid, 20 ounces salicylio
