Curious Lawsuit In ceylon.

A curious lawsuit regarding the
ownership Of lands was tried recently
in Ceylon. The trouble originated at
an archery competition held by King
Parakrania Bahu W., who ruled over
Ceylon in the fifteenth century. IL
which there were two champions who
outdistanced all the rest and alike hit
every mark that was submitted to
them. The king was about to divide
the prize when from neighboring
pond a frog was heard to croak. The
king seized upon solution and de-
clared that whichever could hit the
frog, aiming only by ear, should gain
the prize. One of the archers trans
fixed the frog with the arrow. So de-
lighted was the monarch that. besides
the original prize. he gave to the win
ner an estate of $4,000 acres. The
present claimants in the lawsuit were
the descendants Of the archer.

Coffin Factory Burned.

Burlington, N. c., Special.-One
Of the most disastrous J fires IN
the history of Burlington originated In
the factory building of the Burlington
Coffin Company Of this place about
10 O'Clock Tuesday morning. The
plant consisted of three large buildings
besides the engine and boiler house,
dry kilns, storing sheds, etc., and was
one Of the largest business enterpris-
es of Burlington, as well as one OF
the principal casket factories south OF
Baltimore, and has been doing very
prosperous business. Owing to the IN
tenscly cold weather this morning,
work in the factory building was not
resumed. The origin Of the fire Is un-
known. for when the fire was discoV-
cred the entire second story OF the,
factory building was in flames, which
soon reached every part of the build
ing and spread to the engine and boil
er house, the dry kilns. and to an i'm
mense quantity Of luEser on the
yards. The factory was equipped with
a very complete outfit Of machiAery,
most Of it being Of the latest and most
improved designs, all Of which was
lost. together with the entire stock OK
patterns, coffin bits and machine
room. An immense quantity Of lumber
was in stock. more than 250,000 feet
of which were burned, together with
q large stock of covered casket shells.
The total loss is estimated at frem
s25, 900 to $4,000, with about $4,000
Insurance on the factory building and
the machinery. It is understood that
the company will rebuild, probably
upon an enlarged plan, at as early
date as practicable.

PIONEER RURAL CARRIER.
Linn County Has First r. F. D. APP
pointed in Iowa.

~ Cedar Rapids, June 2O.--Joseph Isaac,
rural carrier No. /. out of Walker, Iowa,
is claimed to be the oldest carrier in Iowa,
If not in the United States. On Dec. /,
1901, he made his first trip in the mail SER
vice and on Nov. % next he will celebrate
his seventy-thir birthday anniversary.
During this time he has Travelled over
1885 miles and has handled over 10000
pieces of mail matter, missing only one
day on account of the roads and not more
than five days by sickness.
He has employed two horses during this
time. When the roads are very bad, like
they were year ago last spring, he drives
double, but most of the time uses only
one horse.
Mr. Isaac is an old soldier, having served
during the rebellion in the campaign in
mississippi and Louisiana in the Eighth H.
nois infantry. Like all of the old veterans
he is often reminded of the priyations and
exposures endured during those times, but
otherwise is in better health than when he
began service as mail carrier, and is
good for several years more in the mail
fseryice.

DISCUSS APPEAL
DEFEATED SHAREHOLDERS IN
RECENT LOAN AND BUILDING
CASES MEET.
Meeting to Be Held Next Friday Eve.
ming to Hear Report of Committees
as to ACCESSIBILITY of Appealing Case
to Supreme Court.

A number of the defendants in the
recently decided Loan and Building
case met in the council chamber at
the city hall Saturday evening and dis.
cussed the proposition of carrying the
case to the supreme court. Another
meeting is to be held on Friday ev-
ening at the same place and it is pos
sible that some definite action will be
taken upon the matter.
Some Grounds for Appeal.
The refusal OF Judge Robert Sloan
4 his opinion to recognize the five year
Glatute Of debt limitation, is one of
the grounds upon which an appeal is
TO be based. Other grounds are the re-
fusal to give credit to any of the series
of stock for the interests paid into the
association by the shareholders on the
amount of their stock and lastly the
placing of all the series on dead level
in the final reckoning as to the
amounts of money the individuals must
repay. The objection to this latter
feature is that some of the series lost
large sums while others made consid.
cradle profits, yet all series are figured
upon exactly the same basis in render
ing the judgments against the share.
holders.
Nearly Forty Present.
There were about forty pres
ent and it seemed to be the general
opinion that if enough interested par.
ties would stand together it might be
we'll to appeal the case. Committees
were appointed in each ward to investi.
gate as to the general opinion regard.
ing this; also as to what the probable
cost of the appeal might be; and final
action will be taken at the next public
meeting which is to be held at the city
hall Friday evening, June "a, at 1880
o'clock.
All those against whom judgments
have been rendered are urgently asked
to be present at the meeting.
