SOME TALES OF HORROR.

Stories Of the Uneasy skulls of MUIR

There IL a skull, said to be that of
negro murdered by his master, Ro-
man Catholic priest, at Rittlscombe
house, near Bridport, in Dorcetshire,
says Notes and Queries Several at
tempts. 1t Is said, have been made to
bury or otherwise dispose of this skull,
with the lnvariable results Of dreadful
screams proceeding from the grave, I'M
accountable disturbances about the
house. and other equally unpleasant
occurrences. An account Of the house
and skull, on the authority Of DR.. Rich
ard Garnett, will be found in lngram's
Haunted Homes and Family L.
gends." In the same volume is a no
tice Of another haunted house, Burton
Agnes Hall, near BridlingtOn. Here
the skull 10 that Of q woman of the
Boynton family, who was attacked and
murdered by two ruffianly mendicants
In the sixteenth century. Before she
expired she implored her sisters to pre-
serve her skull In the family mansion,
which was then being built. This was
not done at first, but finally the sisters
were compelled to comply with the
strange request by the noises, resem-
bling elaps Of thunder, which resound-
ID through the house every night until
the skull was taken from the grave.
Several attempts have been made to
bury 1t, with the same results as at
Bettiscombe. At page 257 Is a rather
unsatisfactory account Of skull, said

an ancient building about seven miles
west from Manchester. 1t was an old
seat Of the Downes family, Of which
a member who lived in the seventeenth
century appears to have been in the
habit Of first getting more wine into his
skull than was good for him and then
brawling with his brother sons Of Belial
In the London streets. In one Of these
nocturnal rambles he was killed and
his head was sent to his sisters as an
announcement Of his fate. They In vain
tried to bury 1t, and were only able to
secure respite from the hauntings by
placing 1t in niche on the staircase Of
the hall.
The peculiarly horrible disturbances
at linton Sumpner manor house in
1873 have been narrated in more than
one collection of ghost stories. The full

DOUGLAS DEDICATION
New Administration and Jobbing House
Of Big Shoe Manufacturer Opened.

New Administration and Jobbing House
Of Big Shoe Manufacturer Opened.
The new administration and job
bing house building erected by the
w. l.. Douglas Shoe Co. as q part OF
its mammoth manufacturing plant at
Brocton, Mass, was dedicated June
10. The program included open house
from II in the morning until 8 in the
evening. There was a musical pro.
gram and refreshments were served all
day. Fifteen Thousand invitations
were sent out, including over 1900
to retail dealers in the United States
who handle the w. L. Douglas shoes.
Mr.. Douglas says that his three large
factories, also the new building just
dedicated. will always be open to in
spection and visitors from everywhere
will be welcome.
The new jobbing house will enable
hurry orders for Douglas shoes to Be
shipped the same day they are receiv-
ed. The new building is 280 feet long
and 60 feet wide and two stories high.
The jobbing department occupies the
entire lower floor and the new Offices
of the Douglas Shoe Company occupy
the entire second floor. In the new
building there will be special Offices
occupied by the Western Union and
Postal Telegraph companies; also by
the telephone companies and there
is an elaborate mailing department
The completion of this new admins
tration building marks the establish
ment Of a modern, up-to-date whole
sale house and Office building.
Mr.. Douglas has long considered
the advisability of a jobbing house,
not only for the purpose Of supplying
his own retail stores more readily, bu'
that the 1900 dealers throughout
the United States handling the w. l.
Douglas shoes might be able to obtair
shoes for immediate use with greater
facility.

LEGAL INFORMATION.

AZ we understand the law OF South
Dakota, any personal property, which
includes growing crops, Is exempt to
the head Of family to the amount Of
$3.50; and personal property to the
amount of $3.50 is exempt to aDY other
person.
The constitution Of Minnesota pro-
vides that a homestead shall be liable
to seizure and sale for debts incurred
for work or material in the repair or
improvement of such homestead. The
proper way to enforce such claim is
to sue upon it, get judgment, and then
get out an execution and sell the prop
erty.
A rents his land to Il without re-
serving any right to 30 upon the land
to ditch his sloughs. Now A wants
to ditch; can he legally do this? Ans.
Ii reserved, or unless the renter con-
sents; the owner Of the land cannot

other way interfere with the renters
right OF possession.
The rule Of law Is well settled that
II there be doubt or uncertainty, or
dispute as to the true location Of a
boundary line, the parties may by
agreement fix line which will, at
least when followed by possession with
reference to the boundary line as fixed,
be conclusive upon them, although the
possession may not have been for the
full period of fifteen years. Definite
settlement of the boundary Is a sufti-
cient consideration for tho agreement
One may provide in his will that
after his death his wife shall hold all
of his property in trust for the use
and benefit of his children during her
lifetime; and he may provide further
that II his wife marry before the chill

pass to third party. There is no legal
objection to such a WILL but the stat

OF her husband, and can insist upon
taking what the statute provides she

The Postmaster General rules that
mail carriers have the right Of way on
all country roads, and other travellers
must give carriers the whole road. The
new code of Minnesota says that when
meeting OH the highway each party
must turn to the right. Can the Post
master General repeal State law
Ans-Ne have not the text Of the
ruling referred to, but we think the
Postmaster General does not empower
mail carriers to disregard the common
courtesies Of highway travel, nor to
break any States law. Right Of way
means. We think, that no one shall I'M
necessarily obstruct or delay carriers
when on their Official business. Mail
carriers should be as courteous as less
exalted mortals; and as q rule VIC
think they are.

upon an insulated rock, projecting into
the German ocean. And there George

The castle was besieged and the gar
