An Odd Legal Situation.

A novel role has been assumed by
the commonwealth of Pennsylvania
before the courts at Pittsburg. where
attempt is being made to have itself
declared heir of an ex-slave, under
escheat proceedings, the total
amount involved being but about
5000. Two nephews of the deceased
negro, who were raised upon the
same Virginia plantation, are en-
deavoring to establish kinship in or
der TO share in the estate, and the
commonwealth resis.s the claim. The
uncle and alleged nephews had drift
ed apart, and for some years past
worked in several parts of Western
Pennsylvania unknown to each other
until identity is claimed to have
been established through a scar on
the old slaves foot.

JUDGING by what we see from
time to time in Muskogee papers
that town must have the most lib
eral and enterprising class of citi-
zens of any town in the Territory
We have noted heretofore several
instances of public improvement at
private expense in that place, each
time commencing the example to
the emulation of Ardmore's citi-
zens, but without results. How
ever, we shall continue to hold up
such examples to the gaze of our
people, confident in the fact that
they have some vulnerable point,
though as yet we have been unable
to discover it. The following from
the Muskogee Times is another of
the numerous examples which We
take pleasure in presenting: Mr..
c. w. Moore took such pity on
the school children who had to
wade the mud on Okmulgee
avenue and Lake street corner that
he had a brick walk put down at
his own expense.

Here is what an exceedii .ly
proper person says in British paper
Of the rising generation: "The
uildness of the beverages drunk by
young men forms distinctive note
of the present day. When our
,grand-fathsrs drank port and cher
iry, our fathers brandies and sodas,
the modern youth drinks lemon
squash, the lightest of Moselles and
Hooks, and occasionally despises not
even milk and soda water. Cham
payne still holds its own, Of course
at convival meetings, but the every
'day beverage consists OF claret OF

ally drinks the latter wine and never
touches champagne, and his exam

factor in the future, a Temperance

FREE mail delivery ought to be
secured for Ardmore this year,

commission will have finished its
work here and the council can then
enforce the building of sidewalks.

FREE SILVER REPUBLICANS
Will Support Democratic Ticket-Rev
 Wm. McGill to Speak

Rev. William McGill, colored, editor of Hot Shots has been invited to address the district conference of the Zion Metho- dist Episcopal Church at Adamsvlle to- morrow on political issues. McGill is an enthusiastic free silver advocate, and will oppose the Republican State and National tickets in the approaching elections. He was an adherent of the Bingham faction in the recent contest in this State.
 He stated to an Age-Herald reporter yesterday that in his fight against the Republican State ticket he would have practically the full strength of the Bing- ham wing of the party in Alabama, and that large element of the Republicans would not support the National ticket on account of the silver issue.
 McGill will go to Geneva the latter part of the month and make several speeches in opposition to the Republican ticket On account of it's advocacy of free silver, Me- Gill says, the Democratic, tickets, State and National, will receive large Repub- lican vote.

The former assess ment was $102 $50, and the board fixed the present assessment at $127,350
