When Professor Hill turned south

tinued OH past Morne Rouge. His
route seems to have been along or near
the Gale Basse divide. He says he
descended from Morne Rouge into
the valley between Morne Rouge and
Mont Pelee. This valley was deeply
strewn with ashes. Mr.. Kavanagh
was guided by an aged negress, to
where an old footpath once led to Lake
Palmist. near the summit OF the era.

was buried In ashes to within foot
of its top. Before him stretched up.

with ashes, which. soaked by the

TO Fight For Wealth.

Milwaukee. Wis. May 29--Miss Be-
ntrloc Mckenzie, Of Chicago. now re-
hearsing with Becker Il Walls opera
company, here, claims to be heiress TO
the famous North and East Marden
estate in England, oil which is locat-
ed the Goodrich rnco course. where
the English Derby is run, and she has
retained attorneys in the suit that she
is about to bring TO secure legal title
TO the property.

and includes, besides the Goodrich
race course, about 100 acres of land
lying between Brighton and Chiches-
ter, and $500,0O0 now deposited In
the Bank Of England.
The claim Is based upon the fact
that Miss McKenzie's grandmother,
now dead, was the sole and only heir
of the property. The only heir at the
time of her death in 1881 was Miss
McKenzie's father. George s. McKen-
zie, OF Chicago. Mr.. Mckenzie epgag-
ed Jeffrey Hawkins. n London law

tate. Because Of difficulty in proving
the death of the elder Mckenzie. tho
case dragged along for number ot
years, and finally resulted in his being
offered onc.fourth of the estate IL hc
would drop the suit.
Mr.. Mckenzie refused the offer, and
continued the suit. Just at the time
lie had found the necessary proofs oi
his fathers death, he himself tool
sick and died, AS the result of an-op

he left it. and has retained Jean Ia
biera, attorney for the Actors society
of New York, to conduct the case fol
her. "-

NINE. WERE RELEASED
They Had Been Arrested as "Vags"-
Effect Of an Application OF Soap
and Water

Nine hard working men were arraigned
as Migrants in the municipal court this
morning, and a tenth man was given
workhouse sentence
Most of these men told the court that
they had been working on extra gangs
near the city, but the Indictment weather
Of the past few days had driven them to
the city. They expressed a desire to go
back to work, and Judge Dickinson
granted them permission to CO. warning
them to keep away from saloons
One man had time checks for SO, and
told the court that there was no reason
why he should be arrested on such a
charge He was found not guilty.
An amusing incident came up an court
in connection with one vag arrested by
Officer Wennell. His hands were exceed
ingly dirty, and before hearing the case,
Judge Dickinson ordered him to, wash
them. He left the courtroom and wahed
both his hands and face. When he re-
turned the court failed to recognize him
until told who the man was.

RAILROAD RUMBLES.
POST ROAD RIGHTS
Claimed by Western Union In Its Fight
Against Pennsylvania System.

Claimed by Western Union In Its Fight
Against Pennsylvania System.
Next Thursday the Western Union case
against the Pennsylvania will be taken up
in the federal court at Pittsburg. The
contest promises to become a struggle be-
tween the Gould Wabash and the Penn
:sylvania- Cassatt interests. The Wabash
attorney will assist Western Union courr-
sci. The Western Union will ask an in
junction restraining the Pennsylvania
from emoying any poles, wires or fixtures
Of the plaintiff from the lands of the
Pennsylvania east Of Pittsburg and Erie.
The Western Unian maintains that it's
poles rightfully occupy space along the
Pennsylvania, because of the general
grants under the post road rights. This
sets up the contention that the right Of
way along the railroad cannot be legally
restricted, for the reason that the govern
ment uses the railroad for transmission
Of the mails, and that, therefore, the
railroads are public servants In the broad
est possible sense.
The Western Union company maintains
that post road rights are equal in impor-
tance to the eminent domain rights of the
railroad company.

a postoffice clerk yesterday, IF the pub
lie would get more familiar with the diff

possible. But ordinarily people buy 2
cent stamps only and put six of them, for
instance, on a 12-cent package where a
single stamp would do much better. The
practice is nuisance to us because we
