United States ciruit court. district Of
New Jersey. o decision was filed yes
terday in favor Of The Western Unio
Telegraph Company restraining the
Pennsylvania railroad from interfer-
ing with the company's lines along
the road. The injunction is made per-
manent.
The decision as handed down, reoites
the following United States which
have been, or may hereafter be dc.
clared such by law, but such lines Of
telegraph shall be SO constructed and
maintained as not to interfere with
the ordinary travel on such military
roads. All railroads are declared by
law to be post roads.
The decision continues while the
question here at issue has not had iu-
dicial INTERPRETATION by the court Of
last resort, the statute Of July "a,
1866. as applicable to post roads, has
several times been before tho courts
for their construction. 1t has been held
that because of this law. one company
having exclusive privilege under the
state law cannot prohibit the erection
of the telegraph line of another COM
Dany on the post roads of the United
States where such other companies
have accepted the provision of the act
Of Jdly "a. 1866 when those in control
of such roads have given their assent.
1T has also been decided. in Unite
States VS.. Union Pacific Railroad
Company That no railroad company
owning a post road of the United
States e which interstate COM
merce is carried on can, consistently
with the act Of Juy "A, 1856, bind it.

roadway any telegraph company in
corporated under the laws of a state,
which accepts the provisions Of the
act and desires the use of that read
way for it's lines in such hammer as
will not interfere with the ordinary
travel thereon. "
The deciding judge, in closing. said
In view of the facts presented and
for the reason stated, | have decided
to make permanent this injunction. In
this wav the defendants will have no
opportunity to appeal to the next term
of the circuit court of appeals while,
should the rule be discharged, the com
p~lainant would have no appeal. and
the injury to its property which is
threatened, would have been accom-
ulished before the case had been prom
erly considered"

company. and that there is not sufi-

Portable young man could recollect
fourteen different occasions when she
lugged in the name of Mr.. Thatcher.'
He was SO put out over events that
he sold a 60-cent hoe to old Mr. John
son for % cents, and astonished Aunt
Mary Phillips by asking her 60 cents
a yard for 7-cent calico.
AS a matter of fact Minnie intend
ed to do her share towards making
up when the proper time came, but
she wanted to punish the young man
first.
-Four weeks after the buying of the
tablecloths, and without the young
couple having spoken since, Farmer
Davis and wife set out one day for
ten-mile drive to Cassville, intending
to be back home before dark. While
they We're returning, they met with
an accident. and it came about that
Minnie found herself alone in the
house when night fell
She didn't begin to get nervous un-
till about 9 o'clock. when a call from
tramp frightened her into locking
all the doors and imagining all sorts
of things. The tramp had taken a cold
bite and left. but, knowing that she
was alone, he would doubtless hang
about and break into the house
Farmer Davis had a shotgun, and
that shotgun was kept loaded with
bird shot to kill owls and chicken
hawks. When Minnie was worked
up to such nervous pitch that she
imagined every gust of the wind to
be the muffled footsteps of the tramp,
she got down the gun and resolved to
perish like a true heroine
Five minutes after the resolve was
taken some one knocked at the front
loor. 1t was the tramp. of course
Two minutes later he was heard NUT
tering and grumbling and getting
drink of water at the well.
With her heart in her mouth and
the shotgun ready to fall from her
trembling hands. >.e girl waited. The
tramp whist!ed and then sat down on
a doorstep.
But only minute. Then he arose
and seemed to move along to kitchen
window. His game was to raise the
sash or smash the glass, and. shut
ting her eyes and trusting that her
grave would be kept green, Minnie
pointed the gun somewhere or other
and pulled the trigger.
There was a fash roar, and a yell.
Scared as she was, she detected some
thing familiar in the tones of the yell.
and when her name was shouted she
opened the door to admit Burt Thatch-
er He had not only heard of the ac
cident to her parents. but had made
rse of it to drive over to the farra
house and tell the girl how sorry he
was that he had made a chump of
himself.
He was not at the window when the
shot was fired, but was walking way
from it, Most of the charge went wild,
but about a dozen of the little pellets
