Suit has been entered in the common
pleas court by Susannah Kuch against
the city to recover $1,000 damages nn
der an unusual claim. She says that
she is the owner of property on the
northwest side of Leverington avenue.
Upon this ground, hhe says, there is
erected a handsome house, in which she
makes her residence, and the beauty of
the premises, together with the value of
the house and grounds, was much in
creased by the presence of four hand
some Norway maple trees planted by the
plaintiff about twenty years ago.
Last fall the gaspipe along Levering
ton avenue commenced to leak, and
through the neglect of the city officials
this leak continued until last May. and
the soil of the street became permeated
with the gas, which caused the maple
trees to die and become worthless. The
plaintiff saj's that the value of herprop
erty has been greatly decreased by the
loss, and hence the suit Philadelphia

Love himI Oratory.
At the oratorical contest held at Cot-
ner university at Lincoln, Neb.. Marion
Gadd took the second prize. The young
man hastily left the room after the an
nouncement of the prizes. A pistol shot
was heard, and when the students rushed
out they discovered that Gadd had
blown his brains out with a revolver
Later developments reveal the fact that
young Gadd was deeply in love with the
accomplished, daughter of one of the
wealthiest citizens of Lincoln, and that
she had promised to marry him in case
he won the first prize in the oratorical
contest: otherwise she would have noth
ing to do with him. He accepted the
proposition, with the above sad result.
