HORROR

On the 10th a fire broke ont in
the upper story of a wing of the
Fifth Avenue Hotel New York
city. Eleven of the landry women
were burned to a crisp. 1t seems
that the creatures were literally
Gagged. The only exit, the stair
way, was on fire and every window
WAS securely barred by a heavy
network of ironwire. The poor
creatures literally tore and bcai
their hands Leads in cain efforts 20
force these cruel bars of wire from
the windows. All their efforts
were unavailing and before the
flames could be subdued, the, red
god of fire wrapped his merciless
arms about them and they fell in
awful and hOrrid shapes Which
friends could not recognize and
over which strangers wept. This
great wrong, in a great hotel of a
great city, cries to the human heart
for redress. The proprietors of
this Fifth Avenue Hotel have had
princes for their guests, but We
imagine that how often when they
should have slept, they will see the
phantom shapes of these poor wo-
men, who more than themselves
are likely to inherit the dukedoms
of another world.

Z Long LnWSujs---En Court fer
Thirty five Ycnrs---DeciSisn
by 5udgc Eiyes.

The suit of John Vint' representa-
tives rs the Representatives and heirs
of John Allen and Hannah his wife,
was finally decided by Judge Rives,
in the United States Court at its re-
cent term in Abingdon. This suit
was brought By Mr.. Jas. ". Shelley,
Of this place, counsel for the plant
ifs, in the year 1887; and from that
date Mr.. Shcfiey has been fighting
with the energy and ability so char
actcristic of him, for a decision of the
case, which has just been rendered in
favor of his clients. The suit in
wolves the title to ore eighth of the
estate of Vim. King, including the
Saltworks, in this and Washington
county. We give below an abstract
of the decision OF Judge Rives.
The Court held that the decision of
Judge Brockenboroueh prior to the
war, in September, 1858. had estab-
lished the validity of the deed Of No,
vember is, 1910. from John Allen
and Hannah his wife to John Eint
for one eighth of the estate Of VIM.
King. including the SaltworkS, and
also that. The children of Allen and
wife were not entitled to specific exc
cution Of the contract of April 6,
lSl2, between John Allen and John
Vint, by which Yint contracted TO
convey to Aliens children half of the
Interest conveyed to Vint by Allen
and wife, and of the interest convey
ed to him by Samuel King in the es-
tate Of William King.
It was claimed by the Administra-
tor and heirs of John Allen that on
the 9TH of April. 1912. be Alien had
paid Yint $ll,G00 on this contract of
April, c, 1912. Judge Brockeebor-
ough decided during the war, in 1863,

Thc American T';srbinc Water
wheel

Messrs. Stout, Mills & Temple, pro-
prietors of the Globe Iron works of
Dayton Ohio, the patentecs and Origi-
mai Manufacturers of the American
Turbine, better known here rs the
Dayton wheel, have subjected two
of these wheels TO thorough and eX-
hauStive tests, at the Uolyoke Testing
fiume during the past week, with the
most gratifying results. The expert
ments with this wheel, were witness
ed by several scientific men and eXpe-
rienccd manufacturers OF Turbine
wheels, and fully demonstrated the
several points of superiority claimed
by the manufacturers. TO the satisfac-
ton of all present. The tests were
continued through several days, being
applied to the wheel at full gate, seven
elghts, three fOurths, five Fights, one
half, three cights, one fourth and one
fifth gates, the results showing a high
er average percentage of useful effect
of water used, then given 10y any 9th
er Turbine wheels ever tested either
at Lowell or in this town. The guam
tity of water discharged from the
wheel under partial gate was deter
mined by the cubic feet actually passed
per minute, not measured by the
aperture of the gate, that is to say,
that with the half gate, there was just
half number of cubic feet per minute
passing the weir, that was passing du-
ring the full gate test. The official
record of these several tests is as fol-
lows:

tfiat shls receiptwas Dot paid IN rlon:
ey, but was composed III Sart of
1921 81. which A!len assumed to
pay for YiBt, but never paid-of an
order or draft drawn by John and
VIM. Al len on John Jet for 1888,
which was Protested by Jet. and of
$5,400 in notes of John Yint to Sam
uel King which he had decided were
never paid to Samuel King, and Of
1856 error in calculating interest, and
the price of a mare, which left
81, 1876 not accouted for by Yint,
and which-i1e decreed should be paid
by Vints administrator, with the
costs of the suit.
Judge Rives held that this decree of
a Confederate Judge during the war
is null and void. and docs not belong
to the record that it was beyond hu-
man credulity to believe Allen paid
to Vint the amount of this receipt in
money; that it was mere paper
shift; that Allen and Fint at the time
we're both msolvent. and that Allen,
whO was largely indebted, could cot
fairly have paid such a sum or any
part of it as a settlement np0n his
children; tb:t the case should have
ended when his predecessor decreed
that the contract should not be exc
cutcd that the further proceedings
to compel the payment of the Sill 600
and interest was unnecessary and ille-
gal, and the ease was at an end when
specific execution of the contract was
refused.
The learned Judge further held
that the cross suit of Aliens children
and administrator to set up this con-
tract, and for alternative relief by de-
cree for the repayment of the Sll,G00
with interest from April I, 1912,
could not upon principles of eqity be
entertained. That Allen himself
could not be heard to show bis own
fraud as ground of equity; that his
children we're mere volunteers claim
ing under him, and could not enforce
the contract and receipt were in fraud
of Aliens creditors and conld not be
enforced by his children or Admins
traitor claiming under him. The re
suit was the dismiSsion of the cross
bill of Aliens children and admins
traitor, and of purchases under them
with costs in favor Of Vint's represen-
tative, and decree that Vint's rep
resentativcs be let into full fruition of
their rights under the deed from Allen
and wife to John Vint. The rccov-
cry is one eighth of the King c.: 9 ::
