McCune Company, 623 Lexineron Bipa, New York, N. Y, Dispate Over Ownership of a Meteor Causes a Unique Lawsuit fim Kentecky. | A unique suit has been filed in the ;Bath county circuit court at Owings- ville, Ky. It is for the possession of }& meteor which fell on the lands be- longing to the estate of the late F. N. Ewing near that town. Thomas J~Pergram found the meteor, and the heirs of the Ewing estate brought suit for its possession, alleging that as it fell on their land it rightfully belongs to them. Pergram has retained coun- sel and says he will fight the case to a finish. He was required to give $1,000 bond while the suit is pending. | The meteor weighs about 300 ~ SUING FOR A STAR. James J. Hill at Banquet in St. Paul Military Ferce to insure Peace. Advocates Strong Ata ba tn honor of n recently at St. Paul Col. Pond, of the United States army, James J. Hill was one of the principal speakers. He said: “I am not overrating the demand when ( say that it is imperative that the Unit- ed States maintain the nucleus always, and the organization and the officers for anarmy of 200.000 men. With our varied nterests, with our expanding commerce, and with our eve r-increasing power, this strength is not more than sufficient for aur uses In times of stress and danger. However, that may be, I am thoroughly convinced that the United States should pounds, and was the main body of the | maintain at all times an army of 100,- big meteor which was seen on Novem-/000 thoroughly drilled, thoroughly dis- ber 15, 1902, from New Orleans to northern Ohio. Three pieces of the| meteor were seen to fall near here, and two small pieces were found a few days later. One weighing 124 pounds was sold to Prof. Harry A. Ward, of Rochester, N. Y., and Chi- cago, for $300, and he in turn dis- posed’ of it to the National Museum at Washington, D. C. The other piece was sold to Kentucky State col- lege at Lexington. Several months after the meteor fell Pergram was hunting and found it on the side of & mountain, almost buried by its fall. He knew what it was, and by help of a sled carried it to his home. Many scientists have visited Pergram and all have made offers, but he declined them all. An eastern college offered him $2,500 for the meteor, but he de- clined that also, and had made ar- rangements to exhibit it at the St. Louis exposition. The case will be tried at the October term of circuit court here. In the case of Goddard vs. Win- chell in 1892, reported in 86 Towa, 771, the court decided that a meteor was the property of the owner of the land on which it fell, it being a nat- ural accretion. The two other cases on record resulted the same way. SCARF PINS UNITE BROTHERS Men Separated Eight Years Ago Find Each Other in Chicago Hotel Legacy Awaits One. Two scarf pins of peculiar design, presents from their father, were the means of reunitirg, at the Victoria hotel in Chicago, two brothers who had been separated for eight years. The two men had been attracted to each other by the similarity of their surnames on the hotel register, and were in the buffet when the younger brother noticed a scarf pin, identical with his own, worn by his companion, G. H. D. Shaw registered from New Orleans Sunday. Victor Shaw regis- tered from San Francisco Monday. Eight years ago, a few weeks after his father’s death, G. H. D. Shaw ran away from his home in San Francisco. He never wrote back to his relatives and changed the initial of his name. All trace of him was lost. When he stopped at the Victoria hotel he was on his way to Kansas City to marry a Miss Lessing. The day after his arrival his brother regis- tered. , “Where did you get that scarfpin?” inquired Victor Shaw as the two were in the buffet. “From my father.” replied the other Mr. Shaw. Explanations followed and the two discovered that they were brothers. G. H. D. Shaw was also informed that $5,000 of his father’s estate was await- ing ®im in San Francisco. Last even- ing he left for Kansas City, and after being married will continue westward to seenre the legacy. Victer Shaw re- mained in Chicago. AMERICAN SHIPPING. Fell Off 6,000 Tons Last Year—No Deep-Sea Keels Laid Since the Year 1901, The board of trade and transporta- tion of New York at its first post- vacation meeting listened to a report on the falling off in our shipbuilding and carrying business, in which, the report says, there was a “loss of 6,000 tons last year, while not one deep-sea keel has been laid in an American yard since 1901.” The board decided to put these facts before the people. It also adopted a resolution, submit- ted by Lewis Nixon, urging the in- dorsement of canal improvements. President Straus read the following letter written by President Roosevelt to Aaron Vanderbilt anent the shipping situation: “Hon Oscar S. Straus has forward- ed to me your memorial. It 1s, I trust, unnecessary for me to say how deeply and anxiously I have studied the sit- uation of our shipping. I shall go over your letter with certain public men who in the past have shown their great concern in American shipping. I earnestly hope that we may be able to devise some method that will ben- efit this industry.” Are’ Women Savages? Dr.. Wiley, chief of the bureau of chemists, who is intensely intellectual, Says men go bald because of their in- tellectuality, while women keep their glory because they are savages. Per- haps so, says the St. Louis Post-Dis- patch, but if Dr. Wiley will take off his stiff hat and let the wind blow through his hair he may save what is left of it. Intellectuality without com- mon sense is apt to produce all sorts of fantastic phenomena. Grant's H a Hospital. Brig. Gen. Frederick D. Grant, his brothers and sister, wishing to pre- serve the Grant homestead in Galena, TIL, have given it to the city authorities, who will probably convert it into a hos- pital. ciplined, thoroughly trained, and thor- oughly officered men. “The people of the United States are the government. Their word dictates. But they are a people of peace, and there is no way as sure to maintain and pro- mote peace as to be prepared to fight for it. We must have peace! for our in- dustrial and commercial growth and Peace we will have if we have to fight for it. Therefore, I say that 100,000 men should be always at hand to take the field, with the knowledge always that 200,000 can be at once brought forward should the need arise.” ENGLAND NEEDS SCIENCE. Stir Norman Lockyer Declares Britain Is Being Outstripped by Germany and the United States, The British Association of Scientists is to meet at Southport shortly under the presidency of Sir Norman Lockyer, The presidential address will deal with national shortcomings as regards the teachings of science. He intends to prove by means of statisties that Brit- ish industries and national life general-* ly is suffering seriously from the neg- lect of science in education, that is from want of properly equipped modern uni- versities, These, he says, are numer. ous and efficient in the United States and in Germany. Great Britain, therefore, must submit to be outstripped or have state aid com- nensurate with what is given the other ountries, Sir Norman Lockyer names $100,000,- 00 as necessary, and maintains it would be a remunerative investment, for it means the difference between public prosperity and adversity, He also maintains the state should endow re- search, which is pioneer work and though often not directly remunerative ‘requently points the way to results of great pecuniary value. Sir Norman does not hope for good results unless strong and continuous pressure is brought on the government without regard to party rolitics. WOMAN AND RAT IN CONFLICT. She Canght the Ant by Its Tail and Found It Ha ‘eeth, But Finally Dispatches Ut, Mrs. Irving Shultis, of South Canaan, Conn., had a fight with a rat the other day and was badly bitten on the foot and hand. The rat is dead. For some time past Mrs. Shultis’ chicks have been disappearing with regularity, vestigation showed that they usually dis- appeared through a large rat hole in one corner of the coop, The woman set a trap, but in vain. Up to the time the rat had disposed of 60 of 130 chicks owned by Mrs. Shultis, Mrs, Shultis was conversing with Dea- con Morse, when both heard a commo- ‘ion in the coop. Mrs. Shultis arrived in time to see a huge rat running toward a hole with his teeth in a chick's wing. The woman set her foot on the rat's tall, whereupon it turned and bit her foot. But she pounded the rat's head with her clenched fist. This made the rat let go the foot and bite her hand. Finally Mrs. Shultis loosened a stone in a wall and vith it dispatched the rat. PROFIT IN SILVER. Seigniorage on Precious Metal Vields Substantial Som—Credited to Redemption Fand. The director of the mint has received a report on the purchase of silver for the new Philippine coinage, covering everything up to August 1, which shows that the seigniorage will yield a sub- stantial contribution to the redemption fund in the new Philippine currency sys- tem. The purchases have amounted to 9,711,506.96 ounces of bullion, for which $5,145,762.53 has been.paid. The Philip. pine peso contains 3% more grains than our silver dollar, or an amount of bul- lion worth slightly less than 42 cents, Its currency value on the new 22 tol basis will be 50 cents, leaving a mareff of profit in the shape of seieniorage which will go far toward solving the re- demption fund problem, which for so long troubled the senate financiers. Probable Cause of Tt. A biblical student quotes Solomon as saying “I am black in ace” as evidence that the king of Isree! was the son of an Ethiopian mother. Micht not the remark have been uttered, however, says the Chicago Chronicle, just after Solomon had been arguing with his numerous helpmeets as to bargain counter privileges? How to Become Famous. Any intellectual giant who chooses may take the names of Uskub, Monas- tir, Adrianople, Gorna-Ribnitza, Smer- fesch, Palanka, Koschani, Koumanovo and Gostigar and write a war poem that will clang through the coming ages, says the Chicago Tribune. No Easy Life There. The advantages.enjoyed by people wha do not live in one of the West {India islands, says the Chicago Inter Ocean, are too numerous to be recapit> ulated. ‘ THE LIFE“@} The ne and repulsive of all most i living t serpent, and the vilest and ~ most de 1 n diseases is Contagious Blood Poison.
