prove interesting 10 local real estate

any story into print, whether real es-

interest to make the first page, but he
fails to tell about It, He's so busy get

TITLE by Encroachment.

Encroachments, like taxes and the
poor. we will apparently have with us
always. They seem to come under the
heading of necessary evils.
II does not necessarily follow, how
ever that because mans building
stands partly on another mans land
the latter can Insist upon the removal
OF the offending portion OF the struc-
ture. as was pointed out recently. II
tn house has stood on the same site q
Gel .ain number OF years and the adjoining
owner failed to start proceedings for the
removal OF the portion projecting over
his land. owners in many cases acquire
title to that portion of the adjacent lot
upon which the building stands.
A Chicago publication recently pointed
out an interesting case. The owner of q
frontage of 200 feet erected eight build
ings, each of which was intended to be on
a separate lot but owing to the fact-that
the owner thought that he had only
1891 feet all of the division walls were
erected six inches too far to the west.
The lots were sold separately to different
persons, and as a result each acquired
right to maintain his wall on the land
OF his neighbor The total destruction Of
these buildings might have abolished this
easement but should the block stand for
twenty years It is quite possible that by
reason OF adverse possession for the
shifted six inches to the west.

NEW YORK. Oct. 2S.-After a

the majority Of active stocks scored
moderate advances over the closing

Murphy Courthouse
Bonds Are Sold

MURPHY. N. c., Sept. III. B.
Craven. representing the Hanchett
Bond company of Chicago, ILL.,, was
the successful bidder at the opening
of bids by the county commissioners
here Tuesday afternoon for the pur-
chase OF from fifty to sixty thou
sand dollars worth of Cherokee cOun-
ty bonds. Mr.. Craven's company Of
fered a premium of $685. and accrued
interest and all expenses, such as
attorneys fees in approving the le-
sality of the issue. cost Of engraving
the bonds, etc. which items amount
to quite a sum. Considering these
items and the fact that the bonds
will hear only 5 IA per cent inter-
est, this bid is considered very good
indeed, and the commissioners were
pleased with the price obtained.
The proceeds of this issue will be
used in building new county jail
and putting a heat system in the
courthouse. II was not known just
how much these two jobs would re-
quire, so the exact amount Of bonds
to be issued has not been determined.
1t will be between fifty and sixty
thousand, however.
