new LONDON HOTEL.

William Jones Of near White Horse,
has bought the New London Hotel, of
the estate Of James Storey, for 80, GOO.
This includes the hotel and stables and
a farm Of 20 acres.
Early in the century the New London
Hotel was erected, and for long time
it was noted place, owing to the fact
that the stage lines between Philadel-
phia and Baltimore in the one direction
and Oxford, Pa, and Newark, Del,
in the other, intersected at this point
Transfers vt passengers were made, and
stir among the People was caused
every day when the heavy coaches with
their loads of travellers arrived.
The New London Academy, which is
known In these days on the records OF
the litigation rather than on account
of its patronage from afar, was then
tiourishing, with students from many
distant places.
Early In the fifties, Benjamin Seal
sold the house to Joshua Conner, who
conducted it for some years, and died
in 1869. For a time thereafter it was
conducted without license, but later it
was bought by Gibson 4 Lennon, who
30 years ago sold it to Jas. Storey, who
died 10 February, 1899, during the
blizzard. For 10 years he had been para
lyzed and obliged to sit in wheeled
chair. After Mr.. Storey became un-
able to attend to business, Miller
Shope took charge of and conducted
the house ir the interests of the ow Ter.

WHICH is THE OLDER TWIN p

Jarad Marks, farmer who lived near
Malvern Hill, seven miles west of
Geneva, N. T., died December 10th,
leaving an estate valued at about S54,
000. He left will in which he pro-
vided that his heirs, except his eldest
son, should receive certain sum each,
He bequeathed all the rest and residue
OF his estate to his eldest son, at that
time unborn. He provided for the dis
position OF the estate If the expected
child should be girl.
As he was without children at the
time the will was made, November
10Th last, the expression "eldesr SOM
was inserted to act in case male twins
we're born. At the time the will was
made Mr.. Marks was i'll with cancer Of
the stomach and was not expected to
reooyer he expressed the desire that
his estate should be Kept intact, so far
as possible, and descend to the eldest
son forever. He requested that his name
also should descend to the eldest son,
in the same manner as the estate. Mrs.
Marks gave birth to twin SONS on Fri
day afternoon last. 1t was noticed that
the first born was marked with small
mule Immediately beneath his right
shoulder blade. Otherwise the babies
were SO much alike that even the
mother could not tell them apart.
The nurse, n Mrs. Bertram, of Can.
andaigua, hathed Them Saturday after
noon. She was dressing the one sup
posed to be the younger when she dis
covered that both of the babies were
marked by mole Immediately beneath
the right shoulder blade.
In the excitement over the discovery
the position of the babies was changed
and moment later the nurse could
not tell the children apart, nor could
the mother or the physician. The case
might be settled in tho courts we're il
not for clause IN the will which says
that II any contest over the will occurs
or If any suit at law should be caused
by the will, the person who begins the
contest or suit at law shall be disin.
herited and the portion bpqneathed to
him shall go 10 certain charitable in.
situations in Rochester. Attorneys in
Geneva say that us long as the cid 81
son cannot be distinguished, the only
thing that can be done is to break the
will and an effort to do this, ii is said,
will be made.

ROBBERS ENTERED CAPITOL.

Lincoln, Neb., Dec. 2O.-An attempt
was made 10 rub the Stats Treasury
early today.
Two men, possibly three, apparently
gained entrance to the Capitol through
an outside window. They were, accord
ing to Night Waterman Good. dis.
covered by him in the trsasurer's office,
and interrupted in their work, at 5
O'Clock. Good said two shots were
fired at him by the robbers. one passing
through the lapel of his coat. He fired
twice in return, apparently without
effect, and the robbers escaped without
having opened the vault or having
secured anything Of value.
A general alarm was turned in, and
almost the entire police forca aud men
from the sheriff's office hastened to the
Capitol. The only evidence of the at
tempted robbery found by them was
the marks of bullets in the corridor
wall pointed out by the excited watch
man and ianitor. The officers were

The Rev. Jenkins besides caring for
orphans takes care OF boys under IL

offences and puts them on a farm. He

dead comrade cried out to him to let
1t alone and then killed him. The
soldier kept 1t up with other natives,
and before the latter came to the con-

they had gotten the band together to
