Lowther Family An Old One.
The new spealtcr of the house or
I Iommons : , James WilUn.m Lowther ,

mes of England , for when Sir Richard

land in Ule eighth and nint.h of Eliz.
j a eth , he was the t.hlrtleth knight in
i succession. Lowther is t.ho family
, nn.me of t.he carls of Lonsdale , and
the speaker is grandson of the first
carl , while the Courth and present earl
Is a great.-grandson , but. born in the

Remarkable Feat of the Bear.
Here Is an odd hunting tale from
Russin. . A certain count was out. for
. bears , and , trackIng a dam and cubs ,
shot. one of the latter , had It slung
Into bis sleigh nnd droye for home
. ! about fiCt ) ' miles distant. Immediately
, . , ; f after his arrival his gamelweper announced -
, nounced that a huge bear had scaled
the wall of the parle. The count. went
out and shot it-tho dam of the cu\J \
'which ho bad ] eilled anll brought
home. The faithful creature had Col-
lowed her dead offspring these fift '
miles at. the same pace as rela 's of
post. horses , and arrived in time to
share the fate of her cub nnd to haye
n monument. erected where she fell.

As to Freak Wagers.

the wanderer must live on what. he :
. . . . can pic ] , up. This is a gentlemanl ' :

tlo the IJficlwrs manage to satisrt
themselyes that. the contract has' been

Ilect , to recover $60,000 from Howard
Gould for services rendered In draw.
Ing plans for the Gould casUo at Port
Washington. The verdict is In favor
of the plalntltr , who Is awarded $24-
183.75. This amount. represents about
21f.r per cent of the original contract
price of $967,000 which It was estimated -
ed t.he ensUe would cost.
Nelt.her Mr. Gould nor Mrs. Gould
was in court. The jury dellborated
\1pon the case less than two hours be.
fore coming to a conclusion. As soon
as court. was , opened Clorl , Hansom
handed up t.he long scaled en vela po
containing UIO verMct. The justice
merely brow ] tho.sen.1 of the envelope

Architect Haydel smiled broadly
when he heard the contents of the verdict -
dict , whllo Law 'or Henry Monfort ,
counsel for the Qu1l1s , appeared much
surprised.
The vordlct of the jury contained
t.ho Information that they reachCl\
tholr verdict. by giving : Mr. Haydel 1
per cent. of 010 original cost ot the
construction of the castle , which it. ,
had been agreed he should receive
when ho submitted plans for the wort ,
and 1 % lJer cent when his plans werb
completed and accepted. The jury
sn.id they were satisfied that ho hat :
done his part. of t.ho work , and that ho
should bo paId for it. They said they
agreed to allow him $29,183.75 , but.
from this the ' deducted the $5,00U
which Ule plaintiff had received from
the Goulds on account , t.hus malting
their verdict. $24,183.75.
As soon as Clor ] , Ransom finished
reading the verdict Mr. Monfort , ad.
dressing the court , moved to have t.ho
verdict. set asldo on the ground that
it. was not in accord an co with the evl.
dence. This was prompUy denied and
then Mr. Monfm't asltOd for delay
of sb = t . days In which to prepare an
appeal from the vordlct. This was
I Hso.r. Gou. ,
also denied , and Mr. Monfort asked
for a stay of Judgment of thirty da 's
and t.hls was granted.
Many persons In the courtroom con
grat.uln.ted Mr. Haydel on the outcome
of the trial , and to all he merely said
he thought it was only a talr verdict
Mr. Monfort , as ho was gathering ux :
his papers preparatory to leaving , sala
that he would carry the case to thG
appellate division. The jurors werG
composed of business mon and farm
ers and there was UlUG criticism oj
the verdict.
