The Verdict.

Records Of the ancient city of Cor
geana, founded in 1640, better known
at the present time rs York Harbor,
Me-, contain many quaint and unusual
stories of the early life Of the town.
At the entrance to York harbor
bold promontory known as Stage neck
extends some distance into the sea,
from which formerly in stormy wealth
er a temporary light in the form of q
lantern hoisted upon an upright pole
was displayed as a warning to mari
uers.
One dark winter night sloop was
wrecked ON these rocks. A survivor on
being questioned about the catastrophe
said:
THE vessel struck, turned over on
her side, and the skipper and another
barrel of whisky rolled overheard"
The local coroner was summoned.
and this somewhat startling verdict
was returned:
1--WE find that the deceased fell from
the masthead and was killed. He
rolled overheard and was drowned. He
fioated ashore and froze to death. and
the rats eat him up alive!--Harper's

Seollans has been in New York for
the last two years in business as q
mining broker under another name. No
one suspected his identity.
He has been sent to the Tombs to
await the arrival of requisition papers

1t was in May, 1896, that Scollans
was tried, with several others, on the
charge of defrauding the city out Of
Immense amounts of money by means
of frauds paving contracts and by false
measurements in the amount Of stone
and brick delivered by teams
After being convicted by a jury, it
was found that one of the jurymen that
convicted Scollans was an ex-eonvict.
This necessitated new trial, and Scol-
lans was admitted to bail in the sum
Of $4,000, pending a new trial.

lans failed to appear. AT his home in
Brighton it was found that he had been
gone several days. A default warrant

trace him, but without success.
According to the evidence obtained by
the police, Scolans changed his name
and went to Australia. There he re-
manned until two years ago, when he
returned to New York
He opened offices at No. 25 Wall
street in the heart Of the financial dis
trict He was mining broker and

AhPtSy Vast.
ST. Johnsbury, April 25. The United
States supreme court has rendered a
decision in the st. Johnsbury case Of
Frank d. Thompson, trustee for Her
bert i. Moore, bankrupt, against Henry
Fairbanks. This is the first Caledonia
county case ever taken to the United
States supreme court, and the decision
of the supreme court Of Vermont is at
ffrmed The defendant had chattel
mortgage on Moore,s livery stable, aud
the property was attached by John H.
Ryan. Mr.. Moore went into bank
ruptcy, and the property was sold at
sheritf's sale for $922.0S, the proceeds
going to Mr. Fairbanks TO satisfy him
in pirt for his claims.
When Mfr. Thompson was appointed
trustee for the bankrupt, Moore, he
brought suit to recover for the amount
realized at the sheriff's sale The SUI
preme court now affirms the decision of
the lower court that the chattel morb-
gage was valid. and that under it Mr.
Fairbanks could hold the after acquired
property, and that the sale of the same
was not unlawful preference which
could be set aside by bankruptcy pro-
Feelings. This IS the first time this
question in the national bankruptcy
act has been interpreted by the United

The Columbus weekly dispatch. (Columbus, Miss.) 1902-1905, 1905-07-20

During a political campaign a
well known lawyer in western state
was addressing an audience com
posed principally of farmers. Like
a wise speaker and a shrewd candi-
date-he tried to suit his speech to
the occasion.
In a tone which he evidently con-
sidered both cordial and honest and
with a winning smile he began:
"My friends, my sympathies have
always been with the tillers of the
soil. My father was a practical
farmer, and SO was my grandfather
before him. l myself was born on
a farm and was, so to speak, reared
between two stalks of corn"
Here his eloquence was rudely in
terrupted by the trumpet tones of a
farmer in the rear of the hall
"Jimminy crickets," he shouted,

The house "came down., and the
candidate, for the moment at least,

Old English Inns.

There is a discussion in the Eng
lish papers as to which is the oldest
inn In England A writer in the
Estates Magazine thinks the Ostrich,
at Colnbrook, Middlesex, is one of
the Oldest. There is every reason to
believe it has been in existence roo
years and even then took the place
of an earlier inn, burned down by
Henry I. in consequence of the mis-
deeds of the tenant. The story of
the Seven Stars, in Manchester, can
be traced clearly back to 1856. It's
existence as a licensed house dates
down to that year. Among the
relics of the Seven Stars is an old
clock which has stood at the top of
the staircase for more than 200.

Victoria with having killed another
man with a sandbag, and in the face
of the judges summing up the jury
brought in verdict of not guilty.
This annoyed the chief justice, Sir
Matthew Begbie, who at once said:
Gentlemen Of the jury, mind,
that is your verdict, not mine. On
your conscience will rest the stigma
of returning such disgraceful YER
