Hero Of War Of 1872.

One hundred years ago Capt. David
Porter, one of the naval heroes of the
War Of 1912, was given a great pop
ular ovation by the people Of Philadel-
phia. Ten days previously Captain
Porter had reached New York after
a long and hazardous voyage from
Valparaiso, where on March 20, he
had commanded the frigate Essex in
her gallant, but unsuccessful fight
against the British ships Phoebe and
Cherub. Upon their arrival in New
York, the surviving officers and mem
bers of the rev of the Essex were
given an enthusiastic welcome. From
New York, Captain Porter proceeded
to Philadelphia, where another pop
ular ovation awaited him. On his ar
rival in the suburbs of the city the
horses were taken from his carriage
and it was drawn to the hotel by the
populace.

SUIT FOR TRACT OF LAND.
Town Stands Upon Two Hundred
Acres Claimed.

Freezing. Va, June 17.-At the re-
cent term of United States court, hela
in Catlettsburg for the eastern district
of Eentuckv. a suit was heard lnVolv-
wing a 20O-acre tract of land upon
which the mining town of jenkins
stands, and which, with the improve
ments upon it, is valued at Sl,9oo,ooo'
This suit was brought by William
Fillmore Addington and his wife,
Nancy Ann Arlington, of Wise, Va
against the Consolidation Coal Com
panv to recover the realty which,
through a technicality of conveyance
has become legally entangled.
The grounds upon which the action
was brought are somewhat tedious
and date from 1860, when the father
of Mrs Addington, Solomon Bentley
died in Pike county, KY, leaving the
tract of land now in dispute to his
wife and only heir. the latter to have
+wo-+hirds of the tract, and the WIDOW
tho remaining one-third. Accord
ing to the stipulation OF the WILL tne
daughter, at the age of q, became
nossessed of the land. During the
! interim she had married William FIJI
more Addington.
n
Some years after the death OF Bent
lev, his widow remarked, ana ol
June 9. 1884, she, her husband and
| Mrs. Addington joined in conveyance
Of the land in question to John W.
Wright. better known as "DeVi
John" This deed Of conveyance was
acknowledged, but was not executed
under seal; neither did Addlngton en-
ter into the conveyance Later
Wright sol dthis tract, with others, Il
the Northern Coal and Coke Company
! who in turn transferred their holding;
to the Consolidation Coal Company
Now the plaintiffs seek to have tn
deed OF conveyance set aside on th
grounds that the wife could make n,
legal conveyance, as under the law
OF the State of Kentucky the husban'
must ioin with the wife in deed 0
: conveyance when the property come
through her hands.
