"WAR FOR ESTATE OF SPANIARD Discovery of Baptismal Record Base of Legal Fight. With the discovery of the baptismal record of Joseph Valllere, a French ad venturer who became a Spanish don, his heirs, -who are scattered through out tho United States, believe they have found the link needed to prove their claims to a tract of land eighty miles In width and 120 miles long, on which part of the city of Now Orleans stands. For more than sixty years the heirs have been trying to establish their claim to the grant made to their ancestor by Caron de Cnrondelet as Spanish governor In 17C3.

Entomologist Encircles Globe to Cap ture Bombyx. The story of a 25,000 mile chase for a butterfly was told recently by Mrs. William Carleton Yange, wife of an jEngllsh entomologist connected with the French Institute of Entomology, who is on her way to New York to Join her husband. Mrs. Yango said her husband went from Vancouver via Canada after a trip of 25,000 miles, begun solely for the purpose of catching one butterfly, an insignificant, long, red spotted bug belonging to the bombyx family, which is said to be nearly as numer ous as the population of China. "We have been butterfly chasing from Paris to Kioto," said Mrs. Yange, "and we got our little bombyx in tho garden of a Japancso gentleman's resi dence at Kioto after pursuing him twelve months."

CITY MAIDEN8 WANT ONLY MEN EARNING $10,000. Canvass of Girls Shows How Cost of Marriage Has Risen. Any bachelor who Is contemplating marrying on a salary or income that does not reach the $10,000 figure may rb well abandon the Idea, for the mod ern city girl has decided that she can not possibly live comfortably on less than this amount. In an address before tho New York City Mothers" club at tho Astor hotel Miss Angonette Perry said that she had been collecting statements from representative young girls, many of whom were Just out of college, on the cost of living. "I asked groups of girls what they considered tho necessary income to ' start life on nnd was horrified to find that tho average was $10,000," she said. "Many of these girls told mo that after carefully estimating the cost of ! maintaining a home they had arrived at the conclusion that less than ?10, , 000 would mean living without some of the comforts so essential to their happiness. These girls were not the I daughters of millionaires, but bolong I ed to well to do families. They had been moderately well educated and well brought up." WANTS BABY SENT BY MAIL Pathetic Inquiry as to Parcel Post Worries Postmaster General, The mailing of babies by parcel post is a real infant industry which Post master General Hitchcock is asked to foster. In the circumstances of his bachelor hood Mr. Hitchcock Is considering se riously the calling Into consultation of experts in the transportation of ba bies, as a letter which he received pre sents to him a mail problem with which he Is quite unfamiliar. To add to his embarrassment the letter con tains a note of genuine pathos, which appeals strongly to the postmaster gen eral. This is the letter, identically as It was phrased and punctuated: Fort McPherson, Ga. Postmaster General, Washington, D. C Sir: I have been cor responding with a party In Pa about get ting a baby to rals (our home being with out One.)

It had for years been tho pride of Ccntervllle, and the citizens were fearing that they would lose the factory, which employ ed a thousand men and was besides a good advertisement for their town. The reason why the Markland com pany was going to ruin was that tho stock was owned by two different fam ilies, each of which was trying to se cure the 'control. It had been organ ized and started by a Markland. At his death his partner, an Osgood, had taken the management of it and built it up. At his death a meeting of stock holders was called, and it was discov ered that exactly half the stock was hold by the Markland and half by the Osgood interest. Naturally a deadlock was the result. Neither party would give way to the other, each hoping to secure a few shares or even one that would give a majority and consequent control. Months passed without either secur ing an advantage, and, there being no head to the concern, it was losing ground rapidly. When it seemed that the feud must be settled or the com pany go out of existence Edward Flem ing, the attorney for the Marklands, resolved to unite the two factions by stratagem. There were two persons lu each, Vinton Markland and Alice Os good, whoso united stock would make a majority of the whole. Roth were young, well educated nnd attractive. Markland was rich outside his Interest in the company that bore his name. Miss Osgood was dependent entirely on the dividends declared on the Mark land company's shares she owned. Mr. Fleming resolved to make a match between the two. They had never met. Markland, who was an or phan, had gane to a boarding school at eleven years of age, from there to col lege and from there abroad without having once rcturnea to his home. Miss Osgood's life had been spent principal ly at Centerville. Fleming called upon her and nfter making it plain that if the affairs of the Markland company should remain in their present condi tion much longer she would be without an income secured her assent to a meet ing with young Markland with a view to marriage. He then wrote Mnrkland, who was in Europe, informing him of the condition of his interests In the Mnrkland company and advising his return at once to look after them. Upon the young man's arrival the law yer unfolded his matrimonial scheme. Markland had no desire to encumber himself with a wife and flatly refused, saying that rather than make such a mnrrlago he would prefer to lose all his stock In the Markland company. Nev ertheless he had no objection to meet ing the lady provided he should not be placed in a position as refusing to make her lila wife. Fleming, after an interview with Miss Osgood, nssured him that no such con struction should be put on any act of his and that the young lady would re ceive him simply as a visitor. Flem ing advised him to go at a time when he would not bo expected, that he might find the lady her usual self. This put an idea into the young man's head. The Osgood grounds adjoined his own. He would watch for an op portunity to join the young lady with out making a formal call or her know ing who he was. One bright winter morning, when the snow glistened In the sun, he passed through nu opening In the hedge sepa rating the two places and sauntered toward the Osgood home. Coming upon a conservatory, he saw through the glass a young woman cutting some flowers. Thinking her to be the lady of his quest, he opened the door nnd entered. "Reg pardon," he said. "Is this tho Markland place?" "No; that Is the Markland place next on the west. This is tho Osgood place." "Oh, thank you! I hear Vint Mark land has returned from Europe. He is an old friend of mine, and I am look ing him up. You are Miss Osgood, 1 presume." "No; I am the governess of Miss Os good's little sister." "Indeed. I presumed Miss Osgood was an only child. I am hoping to meet Miss Osgood. I own a little stock in u manufactory in which she Is Inter ested. I understand that something must be done about its management nnd that there Is to be a meeting of shareholders for the purpose of con certing a plan." "Will you permit me?" said tho young woman, advancing to place a flower in his buttonhole. "Thank you very much. Very kind of you, I assure you." "Perhaps you would llko to talk with Miss Osgood now about those shares you speak of. I think she is disen gaged." "I daro say a conferenco might bo ot some benefit." The young lady led the way into tho house and ushered, Mr. Markland into a very pretty room where a hearth fire blared brightly and, leaving him there, went up stairs, presently re turning with ir card from Miss Os good, on which she had written that she was slightly Indisposed nmj.beg- god to be excused. Would the gentle man kindly glvo his .views to Miss Ice land, tho governess, who would trans mit them to the writer? Miss Leland being rather pretty and evidently inclined to detain Mr. Markland, he settled himself in an easy chair before tho fire. They dis coursed for awhile on the affairs of the Markland company, which he knew little about, then branched off on to other taplcs. Ho found Miss Iceland not only competent to instruct a child, but to givo him information on a va riety of subjects. Nevertheless she had tho art to make it appear that he knew a great deal more than she and to be listening to tho words of wisdom dropped from his rather than her own rosy Hps. Ho spent nn hour with her and was about to tako his departure when she said that she would report what he had said about the Markland company to Miss Osgood nnd lot him know if she had any further message for him. Miss Leland was gone some time and when she returned had doffed the simple morning costume she had worn and appeared in a more becoming if not more elaborate toilet. She said that Miss Osgood had been much im pressed with his suggestions with ref erence to n settlement of the Mark land company problem and hoped that if he would call again she might be able to add to them herself. She do sired that he would remain to lunch eon and would consent to be entertain ed by Miss Leland as her representa tive. Markland was much pleased at the way tho affair was progressing. The luncheon proved enjoyable, and while at table Markland took occasion to di rect the conversation upon Miss Os good, ner representative was quite willing to talk about her and gave her the highest praise. But when Mark land questioned her In detail she did not respond favorably. "Is Miss Osgood beautiful?" he asked. "Oh, no; I should not call her that." "Intelligent?" "I fear she is rather inclined to com mon sense." "That's the highest kind of Intelli gence, to my thinking. She's some thing of a business woman, isn't she?" "What makes you think so?" "Why, she seemed to understand my suggestions with regard to the Mark land company." "Yes; I think Miss Osgood knows enough about business to take care of her own interests." "How?" Miss Leland thought for a few mo ments, then said, "She has told me but I suppose I shouldn't speak of that." Markland urged her to do so, and she continued. "There Is a movement on foot to unite the separate interests by n marriage with your friend Mr. Mnrkland." The visitor pricked up his ears. "Together they would hold a major ity of tho stock and the control. I may as well confess that I have mentioned the matter to you by Miss Osgood's order, because she wishes me to learn from you something about Mr. Mark land." "I shall be very happy to Inform her," replied Markland, with a sup pressed chuckle. "Proceed to question me." "Is he handsome?" "On the contrary, he is very plain." "Is he considerate and deferential toward women?" "As for that, I can only say that he would make an excellent husband." Miss Leland ceased her questions and after some thought said: "I can assure you that Miss Osgood, whatever her delinquencies, would make a good wife. You have assured me that Mr. Markland would make a good husband. It secmB to mo, there fore, that it only remains for them to meet and see if they are agreeable to each other." "Exactly." "Would you say as much to your friend?" "I will bo most happy to do so. I am going to his house from here and will tell him nt once." "And give him nn lnvitntlon, please, to call on Miss Osgood tomorrow morn ing nt the same hour you called today." "Bo assured that I will." Markland went away chuckling. How admirably he had played his game! And what a simple, confiding, lovely creature was the governess! What a surprise thero would be tomor row when he announced himself as Viuton Markland! The next morning he read his news paper, thinking the while of his new found charmer, the governess, and in tending to keep his appointment mere ly for the purpose of continuing his ac quaintance with her. At the appointed hour ho went over to the Osgood place, rang the doorbell and, being admitted by a maid, sent up his card and was ushered into the same room as before. In a few mnents Miss Leland enter ed, holding his card in her hand. Mark land expected to see her start on seeing him. On tho contrary, she advanced to greet him with a "Good morning, Mr. Markland." But instead of saying anything more in words she said a great deal by a blush, which spread over her features. "Miss Leland," Markland stammered. Sho interrupted him. "Pardon me for having deceived you. I am Miss Osgood." "Miss Osgood! And you knew me?" "I did." "How?" "Mr. Fanning, when he spoke to rse about the tie Markland problem, showed me your photograph." Within a couple of weeks a meeting of the stockholders of the Markland company was held, and Vinton Mark land voted a majority of the stock, and not Ionrtfter a wedding occurred be tween hLnnd Miss Osgood.
