Letter to c. r. Foster.
EJIo1gn,-fb

Dear Sir: There are two eorts of furniture.
You know both; for you sell 'em both. One
sort looks better than 1t is. and the other is bet
ter than 1t looks. There Isn't any other.
The same. two sorts of paints, no more: and
we make 'em both-we make tons of stuff that
isn't worth its freight. Belongs to the business
you have to.
But this is aside. We put into cans with our
name on, the very best paint there is in the
world; Devoe lead and zinc. 1t is twice as
good as lead and oil; lasts twice as long. And
we take the risk of it-there isn't any risk.
Yours truly,
II F. W. DEvoE & Co.

The October term of the supreme court
Is drawing to close. The cases ON the
civil docket for trial were disposed of last
Friday, and criminal cases are now being
tried. Final adjournment Is expected
tomorrow. The grand jury reported
Saturday forenoon. There was no in.
dictment In the Ware case.
WALSH VS. wHEELwRIaHT.
In the Northeast Harbor land case,
Walsh vs. Wheelwright, which was on
trial when THE AMERICAN went to press
last week, the jury returned a verdict for
plaintiff.
NICHOLSON VS. MAINE CENTRAL n. r.
Another land case OF Importance fol-
lowed 1t. This was an action brought by
Capt. Thomas NJ. Nicholson, OF Bucksport,
against the Maine Central railroad, for
title to land at the terminus of the rail-
road In Backsport.
Plaintiff claimed title to strip OF land
occupied by the defendant compsny,
along the water front and near the BUSH
ness center Of Bucksport. The company
claimed an easement, or right OF way,
over the property by adverse possession
for period OF more than twenty years
The plaintiff claimed that such possession
was not uninterrupted, but that when
the guage OF the railroad was changed
from wide to narrow guage back in 1877,
and for the few years 1t continued a mar
row guage, the tracks did not extend on
the strip OF land in question, and that dur
ing that time the land was occupied by the
owners. When the guage OF the road
wss again changed to standard guage
the company extended the tracks over the
strip OF land in question.
The case was not argued before the
jury, but submitted on issues OF fact for
reporting to the law court. The ques-
tions submitted to the jury were answered
In favor Of plaintiff.
LEACH BROS. VS. MAINE LAKE ICE co.
A horse case went on trial Thursday
afternoon. 1t was an action brought by
Leach Bros, liverymeD, OF Bluehill
against the Maine Lake Ice Co., OF Sar.
ktutNHfcs ioE hfckSu ihiuiy ~ tWo pnAi
OF horses hired out to the company.
In January last the plaintiffs hired oui
two pair of horses to the Ice company
for three months, for work in harvesting
ice. In was stipulated in the contract
that the horses were to be returned in as
good condition as received, barring ordi'
nary wear. Plaintiffs alleged that the
horses were ill-used, overworked and moi
properly cared for, and when they were
returned, one was practically useless be-
cause OF q cut which had not been prop
erly treated, and the three Others wer'
off in flesh and had been injured in othel
ways.
Rather an interesting feature OF THU
case was the offering of the horses in evil
deuce. The animals were brought up II
front OF the court house, aud the jury
under escort OF an officer, went out ant
looked them over.
After the plaintiffs had their case in, i
was withdrawn from the jury and settled

Uoeer Indian Customs.

The Mosquito Indians are not ae- auainted with the art of kissing, but they sniff or smell the skin of the cheeks, which answers the sawe pur- pose. The little child is lifted hi the ather's arms, he burles bis nose in its stomach. Handshaking is as common IS With us, but there is always a tinge or melancholy in the character of the lndalns, which breaks out where We would expect hilarity. Thus, after a long absence. sisters and mothers sit gown, and, throwing a cloth over their heads, with tAe4r hands clasped on the nead of the person who has returned, cry over him with their dirge-like song. On the part of the wives, 1t Is supposed to be improper to show any ehotion; consequently they take lit- ,'e notice of the husband on his return. out confine their attention to others qua GO their duties :n the meantime.
