A TANGLED SHIT

SAN FRANCISCO, April 12.-The taking OF
testimony In the celebrated Blythe will case
came to an end yesterday. The contest
was begun for 100000 estate on the
18th of last July. The strongest case has
been made by Florence Blythe, a Is year-od
girl whose mother was seduced by Blythe
on one of his visits to England. He &C.
knowledged the girl as his daughter. but
did not adopt her according to the Califor-
MIA law. The other chief claimant Ia Alice
Edith Dickinson, who claims to have been
married to Blythe by verbal contract, but
who only proved that she had been his mis-
tress. One of the best cases has been made
by what are known as the Gypsy Blythes, OF
Kentucky, who trace their descent from
Betty Savage, who married Blythe's father.
As counsel for each of the claimants will be
given chance for argument, the case will
consume at least month.

lie a communication signed Y, published in
the GAZETTE of May 7, 1885, all will say
now, as they said then, amen! But the
early lighting Of stores morning and evening
by reaeon of dark weather, given as the
cause for big figures on gas bills, has made
its appearance each year with the same reg.
ularity as the "Cbrlsimss holidays" ard the
writer has no recollection of missing that
happy season. While gas Is claiming the at,
tention of the public, and as consumer the
writer ia satisfied that notwithstanding
pretty stiff gas billy the meters are correctly
taken and the affairs of the gas works hon.
estly managed, he desiees to ask why some
of our ctiz sns are furnished with gas, free
OF cost, In front Of their premises all night
and every night? Fair play is jewel. Let
every one be supplied in the same way who
80 desires, or everywhere give the order to
