the Supreme Court of New York for the recovery
of property in the heart of Buffalo valued at 81 OOo.
ON. This property was bequeathed between 1927 and
1888 by the grandfather of the claimants to the
authorities of the Catholic Church for ecclesiastical
and charitable purposes The present suit is
brought the ground that the conditions imposed
by the testator have not been fulfilled The prop
erty includes the Church of St Louis. at Main and

CONTROLLER MAKES TROUBLE.-The de-
cison of the Controller Of the Treasury that army
officers may not receive the forage allowance for
horses unless the animals kept where The Off
GERS are on duty has greatly disturbed number
OF orlcerS. The War Department intends 70 appeal
from the decision. alleging is unjust in its
operation and works hardship TO individual ON
GERS. II frequently happens that officers who mus.
he mounted in their regular duty are ordered to
places whittier they cannot conveniently transport
their animals. They must still keep the horses
pending the time when they will have use for them
and occasionally officers have been obliged 10 hire
horses in order TO keep in good trim for the phys
ical test. while maintaining their own horses at
thelr regular stations. The Controllers decision
would deprive these officers OF the allowance for
forage TO which the War Department believes they
are entitled under the law. It is believed that
me controller can be made that he has made
a mistake, and 10 this end the Secretary of War

Force to Meet Force.

Force will be met with force in the
collection of the railroad tax in Carter,
Elliott and Grayson counties, and it is
probable that the State troops will be
used to help the county officials make
the collections.
The payment of the tax which is as
sessed against these counties, on bonds
issued for RAILROADS.&C. being resisted by
these three counties, as we'll as sever
al other counties in the State, and Gov.
Wilson has announced that he will
force the collection of the tax even to
the extent of meeting force with
force. and it was stated by Adjutant
General PIP. Johnson that it was quite
possible that the soldiers might be sent
to those counties to force the collection
if the civil authorities are resisted.
The Governor and General johnson
were asked about the proposed use of
the militia and General Johnson said
the soldiers might be sent. 1t is the
policy of Governor Wilson, he has said,
to enforce the law and he believes that
it is MS duty to enforce the collection
of the judgments against the counties
which have defaultd in the payment
of the railroad bonds.
The same conditions that prevail in
Carter. Elliott and Grayson counties
also exists in Green and Taylor coun-
ties and probably in still others. The
people feel that they never obtained
any benefit from the bonds which were
issued and they have refused. payment
on the ground that the railroads never
were built.

A New Railroad,

The days of building great lines OF
railway are about over and railroad
building of the present day is mainly
devoted to the further development of
the systems already existing, or short
lines to open some particular local ter
ritory. A sholt but important road is
that to be constructed from Pikeville
to the Virginia line. 1t will be called
the Carolina, Clinchfield & Ohio road.
At Pikeville it will connect with the
Big Sandy branch of the G. q O. and
at the other end with the Virginia and
West Virginia system. 1t will give
the C.. & o. a Southern gu tlet to the
sea and will give to the Eastern Ken
lucky mountains another outlet for
their rich products.

Boost Your Town.

The MadisonvIIle Hustler says: cit
is easy hut almost inexcusable for a
man to run down the place in which he
lives-his home town. No talent what
ever is required to DO this. All that is
necessary is to persistently talk about
it's shortcomings, which usually are
few. And to ignore it's advantages,
which in almost every case are many.
The kickers and knockers on their
home town would do we'll to cultivate
a little local patriotism, quality that
is too often sadly neglected.

Astounding Vitality of the Turtle.


The vitality Of this strange sea crea-
ture, the turtle, after decapitation is
almost beyond belief. A large turtle
was once sent to a hotel in Newcastle.
The chef cut the turtles head off and
hung the body upside down to bleed.
Twenty-four hours after that turtle
knocked down a man cook with one
blow Of it's fin. The green turtle is
not a vicious creature to handle, like its
swapping Japanese brother, but its fins
are very strong, and one blow from
them is quite sufficient to break
mans arm.-Wide World Magazine.

while the other has to watch and
learn how things are done and to
make himself useful in every way
