REMARKABLE CASE.
A Lease involved Which Is to Run
1000 Years.

A Lease involved Which Is to Run
1000 Years.
Oshkosh, March 12.-Arguments
have been concluded before Judge Bur
nell in a case involving the lease OF
certain property for the extraordinary
term of 1000 years. The plaintiff to
the action was Louisa Aydelott, and
the defendant William H. Hay, of this
city. Judge Burnell took the matter
under advisement, and the parties are
to have thirty days in which to serve
briefs and ten to reply.
The action arises out of the trans
fer of property in Cincinnati, O., and
the alleged acceptance of the property
by the defendant as collateral secur-
ity on a debt owed him by a man who
held the property. More than ten
years ago the plaintiff, Louisa Ayde-
lott, and one Charles Aydelott, came
into possession of the real estate in
question. In 1890 they leased it to
Pierce Atkins & Company, for 1000
years, for a consideration of $3.50 rent
per year. Later the lease was trans
ferred to Samuel j. Osborn, Jr., and in
1891 Charles Aydelott sold his rights
to plaintiff in the present action.
So far the complaint and answer
agree. The complaint then alleges
that in October, 1894, Osborn sold his
lease of the property to w. H. Hay Of
this city: and that up to 1898 Mr.. Hay
paid the tent, but thereafter let it go
unpaid Hence action is brought to

La Crosse, Wis, March l2.-J. ".
Losey of this city, one of the most
prominent attorneys of Wisconsin,
died suddenly yesterday morning at 9
O'Clock. He had retired the night be-
fore in apparently good health, so
when he did not rise at the accus-
toned hour his wife felt no uneasiness
but waited till about half past eight
before going into his room to awaken
him. When Mrs. Losey entered the
room she found her husband in dis
tress, breathing his last. Two doctors
were summoned, but arrived too late
to be of any assistance. The exact
cause Of his death is not known but it
is believed by the physicians to have
been heart failure.
Mr.. Losey was one of the leaders of
the La Crosse bar and was considered
one of the brightest and ablest attor-
neys of the state. He was general
counsel for the Burlington & Northern
railroad as well as local attorney for
the st. Paul, and had spent the major
portion of last week in Madison at
tending the hearings on the railroad
taxation bills. While at the capitol he
made an argument against the Hall
railway commission bill. He was not
fortunate in politics, being defeated
whenever he was a candidate for popu-
lar favor, but in his profession he was
successful, and in his field of corpora
ton litigation, he was reckoned one

PERSONALITIES.

1t is whispered in the Fauborg St.
German and also the Boulevard
Haussmann and the neighborhood Of
the Church of ST. Augustine, where
the big Bonapartist families live,
that the French pretenders are going
to do 'quelque-chose" at last, and
hopes are revived all round. The
two young men on whom all eyes are
eagerly turned are not as agressively
earnest as their partisans. M. lie Due
d'Orleans enjoys life zen grand seig-
neur," and contents himself by send
to his friends. In Brussels, Prince
Victor timidly looks about for wife
who could give him lift, for he is
shy, and does not feel like the heir to
a throne. He has perhaps moro
friends and more enemies than mis-
rival of Orleans. Quite recently two
gentlemen fought a duel on his &C
count at Neuilly.
Miss Alice Roosevelt, daughter of
the vice president, has captured
Washington. Many say that she was
the most beautiful of the younger
bellies at the inaugural ball. She is
tall and slender, with golden hair,
blue eyes and pink al white complex
ion. She dresses with exquisite taste,
but so simply that the mode is re-
markable. She made her first formal
appearance in society last fall, but
this can scarcely be considered con-
ventional debut One Of the first
functions at the home of the vice
president will be the coming-out OF
this attractive young girl. She will
probably be the reigning belle of Nc
klnley's second administration. Miss
Alice is the daughter of the vice prest-
dent by his first wife, who was Miss
Alice Lee of New York. Her mother
died at her birth, and she has spent
much of her time with her maternal
relatives, an ong them the well-known
millionaire family the Goddards of
Newport. She has inherited from her
mother and other relatives large for
tune, and the vice president laughing
ly says he always keeps on the good
side of Alice, as she is the only one Of
his family who has any money.

While in Madison last week he
spent few hours visiting with Gov.

youth.
