CAR WANTS SHIP CANAL.
Project to Connect the Black Sea
with the Baltic by the Means of
Long Artificial Ditch.

The car has approved a gigantic
project for a canal to connect the Black
sea with the Baltic. The course will
be 1,20O miles long and the cost is esti-
mated at S4O,0OO.O0O.
The plan is to follow the Dwina river
until near the swamps at its headwaters,
then dig through the forests OF Minsk
until the headwaters of the Dnieper are
reached.
1t will be a far greater undertaking
than was the Baltic canal dug by Ger
many, but the reasons for it are sim
liar.
The principal object talked about IS
to develop trade and save the enormous
cost Of shipping over the roundabout
way through the North sea. Atlantic
and Mediterranean.
But the main thing the Russian gov
eminent has in mind is to be able to
call intouse, in just such emergencies as
the dispute with Japan, the Black sea
feet. which now is practically impris-
oned by Turkey control of the only out
l4t through the Dardanellsz.

BIG LEGAL BATTLE.
Title of 5000 Acres of Valuable
Ohio Land to Be Contested.
Part of an Estate Left to slaves by
John Randolph of Roanoke
Is to Be Fought For
in the Courts.

Farmers in the southern part of Men
Ger county, o., are considerably exercised
over a copy of a will recently filed at
Celina in the probate court by a eolored
attorney, John Beam, of indianapolis,
Ind, laying the foundation for legal
battle for the possession of $500 acres of
Mercer county land, valued at over $780,
900.
John Randolph, Of Roanoke, Va, who
was wealthy slave owner, died in 1886,
leaving a large estate. William Leigh
was made executor Of his will and was
directed to purchase $500 acres of land
somewhere in the United States and to
give each Of his slaves ten acres. VIII
liam Leigh finally decided to purchase
this land in Marion, Franklin, Granville
and Jefferson townships, and locate the
Randolph slaves in the southern part of
the county. Leigh had the title of the
land put in his name as executor and
had. it is said. intended to deed ten acres
to each slave after locating them.
Leigh started with his $50 odd slaves
on canal-boats up the Miami and Erie
canal and when the people Of the south
ern part of this and Auglaize county
heard of it they met the slaves at New
Bremen, o.. drove them back and would
not allow them to land. Most OF the
slaves returned to Virginia, but some
of them afterward located on some Of
the land purchased for them. Only q
few of the families are there now.
Now it is claimed that William Leigh
had no right under the bill to take title
in his name as executor, but that title
should have been given to the slaves as
described in the will and that the peo-
pie who purchased this land from either
William Leigh or the squatters have no
good title
A petition will shortly be filed in the
Mercer common pleas court by Attorney
Beam, who is also one of the alleged
heirs, to reclaim this land for the heirs
of the Randolph slaves. This land has
become very valuable for its oil and gas
deposits.

An Eye for An Eye.

The room to which he referred was
the one which had been his fathers
private sanctum. Consequently, it
was full of memories to the two who
row found themselves alone in it,
and wherever they turned their eyes
they lighted upon some token of his
presence. or some silent witness of
those habits which were inseparably
connected with his name.
A sheet OF writing paper with some
thing written on it lay upon the blot
ting pad. and the pen which he had
last used lay beside it with the ink
dried upon it. Everything spoke of
the dead. His spirit seemed to per-
wade the room. which he might only
that moment have quilted.
Ted's eye was caught by the sheet
of paper lying upon the writing ta-
Bile. with something written upon it.
llere was the date-April 23-the
day before he left home, and beneath
it:
My dear -" Not half dozen
words in all. and nothing to show to
whom it was addressed or why it was
