CONDEMNATION PROCEEDING.
Holly Contested Battle Between Rival
Companies Bt Mansfield.

The condemnation proceedings
brought by the Mansfield Short Line
against the Pennsylvania company to
secure a crossing was to have been
heard at Mansfield before Judge Br+n-
kerhoff in probate court. The jury was
impaneled and viewed the premises, but
no attorneys for the Pennsylvania com"
pany appeared in its behalf and II was
suspected that 1t had something else in
prospect to prolong the case.
Deputy United States Marshal Hop
kins, of Cleveland, arrived in the city
junction on the Short Line officials from
the United States district court before
Judge Kicks at Cleveland. Out of
courtesy. Marshal Hopkins notified
Judge Brinkenhoff of the action taken
in the United States court.
This case has been bitterly contested
by the Pennsylvania company and it
has succeeded in prolonging the case
by claiming hat the service was defec-
tive. Yesterday, attorneys for the
Pennsylvania company went to Cleve-
land and got out the injunction against
the Short Line. The case is formally
set for hearing next Monday, but may
rot be heard until later. Cummings
& Mcbride and Sam Marriott are attor-
Mullins, of Salem, and Douglass e. Men
CERT, of Mansfield, are attorneys for the
Pennsylvania company.

And Gave Up His Life at One and the
Same Time, at COnneaut.

Conneaut, Jan. 2G.-Isaac Maykki, a
Finn, resident of Conneaut Harbor
drank himself to death Friday after
noon.
After drinking all day he made q
wager with fellow countryman by
the name of Johnson that he could drink
rs cents worth of hot whisy in one
hour. After drinking several glasses
he suddenly sank to the floor. His COM
panlons carried him to a corner of the
room and laid him on the floor, thinking
he was merely dead drunk. When they
noticed he did not regain consciousness
they called doctor who said Maykki
had been dead half. an hour. Acting
Coroner Hayward was called and had
the dead man taken to a morgue.

She screamed and her large fool Of

So the beautiful stately princess was
left to explain her desertion as best she
could and the fool. knowing that his
wife was loved by another, got her to
declare every 20 minutes that she was
really his tootsey wootsey, and life for
them was an everlasting honeymoon.
And one Allah knoweth what has
become of the wise man.

readers.
And now" asked Blount. what
shall we do with our liberty:"
Take advantage of it, of course
replied Alcide, land go quietly to Tomsk
to see what is going on there
Until the time-very near, hope
when We may rejoin some Russian reg
iment."
"As you say, my dear Blount, it won't
do to Tartarize ourselves too much.
The best side is that Of the most clVl-
lized army, and it is evident that the
people Of central Asia will have every
thing to lose and absolutely nothing to
gain from this invasion, while the Rus
slams will soon repulse them. 1t is
only matter Of time
The arrival of Ivan Ogaref, which
had given Jolivet and Blount their lib
erty, was to Michael Strogoff, on the
contrary, a serious danger. Should
chance bring the cZar's courier into
Ogareff's presence the latter could not
fail to recognize in him the traveller
whom he had so brutally treated at the
Ichim posthouse, and, although Mi
chael had not replied to the insult as
he would Lave done under any other
circumstances, attention would be
drawn to him, and at once the accom-
plishment of his plans would be rem
dered more difficult
This was the unpleasant side Of the
business y favorable result of his
arrival. however, was the order which
was given to raise the camp that very
day and remove the headquarters to
Tomsk.
This was the accomplishment Of Mi
chaers most fervent desire. His inten-
ton, as has been said, was to reach
Tomsk concealed among the other pris-
oners-that is to say, without any risk
Of falling into the hands Of the scouts
who swarmed about the approaches to
this important town. However, in con-
sequence Of the arrival Of Ivan Ogaref
and in the fear Of being recognized by
him, he questioned whether it would
not be better to give up his first plan
and attempt to escape during the jour-
ney.
Michael would no doubt have kept to
the latter plan had he not learned that
Feofar-Khan and Ivan Ogaref had al
ready set out for the town at the head
Of some thousands Of horsemen.
"I will wait, then," said he to him
self; "at least unless some exceptional
opportunity for escape occurs. The ad-
verse chances are numerous on this
side Of Tomsl, while beyond the favor
able increase, since shall in few
hours have passed the most advanced
Tartar posts to the east. Still three
days of patience, and may God aid me-"

colleague had done, and he answered
by q joyful chorus Of Beranger to the
verses of the Bible.
At that moment commotion shook
the telegraph Office. A shell had en-
tered the wall, and cloud of dust I'LL
ed the waiting room.
Alcide Jolivet was just finishing his
verse, "as red as an apple, who, with
out a penny" but without stopping
threw himself on the shell, took it in
his hands before it exploded, threw it
out Of the window and came back to
the wicket. 1t was all. done in an in
stant
In FIVE seconds the shell burst out

Then, continuing his telegram with
perfect GOODNESS, Alcide Jolivet wrote:

: For Michael Strogof there was no
room to doubt but that the Russians
were repulsed from Kalyvan. His last
resource was, then, to hasten over the
southern plain.
But then the general discharge Of
guns was heard terribly near the tele-
graph station, and a hailstorm Of bull
lets crashed through the window. dar-
~ Blount, struck on the shoulder, fell.
.Alcide Jolivet was at that moment
about to transmit this supplement to
his dispatch:

But the operator told him with i'm
perturbabie GOODNESS:
"Sir, the wire is broken
And, leaving his window, he quietly
took his hat. which he brushed with
his sleeve, and, always smiling, went
out through a small door which Mi
chael Strogotf had not before noticed.
The station was then invaded by
Tartars, and neither Michael Strogof
nor the journalists were able to effect
their retreat.
Alcide Jolivet, with his useless dis
patch in hand. ran to Harry Blount,
stretched on the floor, and, kind hearted
as he was, took him on his shoulders
with the intention to fee with him. 1t

passing among the officers Of the es-
cort, approached and remained motion
less before him.
"Nothing?" asked Ivan Ogareff.
Nothing"
: "Have patience"
"Is the time approaching when you
will force the old woman to speak"
"It is approaching, Sangarre."
"When will the OLD woman speak"
t'When we reach Tomsk."
"And we shall be there
an three days"
A strange CLEAN shot from Sangarre's s
great black eyes, and she retired with
q calm step. Ogaref pressed Lis spurs
into his horses flanks and, followed by
his staff Of Tartar officers, rode toward
the emir's tent.
Feofar-Khan was expecting his lieu
tenant. The council, composed of the
bearer of the royal seal, the khodja
and some high officers. ha1 taken thelr
places in the tent.
Ivan Ogaref dismounted, entered and
stood before the emir.
Feofar-Kahn was a man Of forty,
tall, rather pale, Of a fierce counte-
nance and eyes with an evil express
sion. A curly black beard flowed over
bis chest. With his war costume, coat
Of mail Of gold and silver, cross belt
glistenlng with precious stones, scab-
bard curved like q yataghan and set
with sparkling gems, boots with golden
spurs, helmet ornamented with an al
sret Of brilliant diamonds, Feofar pre-
sented an aspect rather strange than
imposing for 4 Tartar Sardanapalus,
an undisputed sovereign, who directs
at his pleasure the life and fortunes Of
his subjects, whose power is unlimited,
and to whom at Bokhara by special
privilege the title Of emir is given.
When Ivan Ogaref appeared, the
great dignitaries remained seated on
their gold embroidered cushions, but
Feofar rose from a rich divan which
occupied the back part Of the tent, the
ground being hidden under the thick
velvet pile of a Bokharian carpet.
The emir approached Ogaref and
gave him kiss, the meaning of which
he could not mistake. This kiss made
the lieutenant chief of the council and
placed him temporarily about the
khodia.
