match at a popular garden in New York

now deceased. Mr.. Vanderbilt seemed
to take considerable interest in O'Leary,
and would come over and stand by the
fence, looking on for hours at time. In
those days used to wear dark suit of

talking to OLeary, and he asked Of a by

No one doubts that DIR.
Sage's Catarrh Remedy real
ly cures Catarrh, whether
the disease be recent or of
long standing, because the
makers of it clinch their
faith in it with a $500 guar
antee, which isn't a mere
newspaper guarantee, but
son call in a moment.
That moment is when you
prove that it's makers can't
cure you.
The reason for their faith
is this;
DR.. Sage's Remedy has
proved itself the right cure
for ninety-nine out of one
hundred cases of Catarrh in
the Head, and the Worlds
Dispensary Medical Asso-
citation can afford to take
the risk of your being the

The only question is-are
you willing to make the test,
if the makers are willing to
take the risk /?
If SO, the rest is easy.

Wherefore plaintiffs pray restitution

Wherefore plaintiffs pray restitution
thereof etc.
Each and every allegation of the COM
paint is specifically denied by the de-
fendant
And the defendant further answering
alleges that he entered into possession OF
said premises and made valuable inn
provements thereon, under verbal
agreement with one Watson. an agent of
plaIntlH Carpenter, to purchase the same
whenever said Carpenter had perfecfed
his title thereto. Defendant further al
Ieges that he has always been ready and
wiling, and IS now ready and willing to
pay Tor SAID land the price which he
agreed TO pay therefor.
Upon these issues the parties went to
triaI before jury, which returned a
verdict Tor the plaintiff for the restitu-
tlon OF the premises without damages,
upon which Judgment was entered that
the plaintiff recover from the defendant
the restitution of the possession of said
premises.
The contention of appellant is that he
ala not occupy the premises as tenant
at VIII or for term, but on definite
verbal agreement to purchase the land
improved by him." A verbal contract
Tor the sale of real property, or for an in
terest therein is invalid, and il made by
an agent OF the party sought to be charged
IS invalid unless the authority of the
agent be in writing subscribed by the
party sought to be charged. Civil Code,
Section 1929 Here there was no written
agreement to sell by the owner of the
property, or authority in writing to an
agent to sell. The alleged agreement is
doubly invalid, % it was not in writing.
q it was not made by an agent having
authority in writing to make it.
We think the entry and holding of the
defendant under void agreement con-
stituted him tenant at viii. That being
so, the record presents no error commit
ted by the court which could affect the
substantial rights of the parties.

IN THE MATTER OF THE
ESTATE OF JOEL NOAH, }No. 12.999.
DECEASED.
Most of the questions involved in this
case were considered and passed upon in
the case of the same title, reported in 73
CAL, p. 5S3. 1t is now further shown that
one of the executors of Joel Noah's will,
William NJ. Morris, died on the lst of Oc-
tober, 1887; that the two surviving exec
utors proceeded to settle up the estate;
that on the 10Th of November, 1887, they
presented and filed their final account
with petition praying that the account
be settled and the estate in their hands
be distributed; that on the 18th Of Decem-
Der following, after due and regular
notice, the matter came on to be heard
and no objection being made thereto, a
decree in due form of law was made and
entered settling and allowing the accounts
Oh fhe executors and distributing all of
the estate remaining in their hands, and
thai afterwards, on the 18th day of May,
1873, decree in proper form was
uade and entered discharging the exec
utors from all liability to be incurred
licl SUltei ny lU8lll.
The appellant, as widow of Joel Noah,
deceased, commenced this proceeding by
filing in the Superior Court on the 18th Of
June, 1883, her petition. praying that the
decree settling the final account of the
executors and distributing the estate, be
vacated and set aside, and that she, as
such widow, be allowed out of the estate
Of deceased, for her support and main
tenance, the sum of one hundred dollars
per month, to take effect from his death
on the 2Sth of August, 1888.
The petition sets out all the proceed
lngs IN the former case, and then, to show
that the petitioner IS now entitled to the
relief prayed for, proceeds TO state "that
the inventory and appraisement of the
property of the said deceased. returned
and filed herein on the 18th day of No
vember, 1855, by the executors of said
estate as aforesaid, was false and untrue.
IN this: That said inventory and appraise-
ment did not include and set forth the
following described property belonging
to said deceased. to wit: Cash in the
hands of the said William NJ. Morris,
one of the executors, to the amount of
$3.50; United States bonds in the hands
of said William NJ. Morris, belonging to
said deceased, to the amount of $4,000:
cash on deposit in the London and San
Francisco Bank, Limited, belonging to
said deceased, to the amount of $50. .0O0,
which was drawn out Of said bank by
said Morris after the death of said de-
ceased, on a power of attorney which
was rendered void by the
death OF said deceased; that when

OF said items were incurred by the re-

Cured upon the trial of an action must be
lett IN nearly every instance to the dis
cretlon OF the Judge before whom the
cause was tried. He has an opportunity
to know the issues that are tried, the
character OF the prosecution and of the
defense, the principal points upon which
the witnesses are called, and whether
there existed any necessity for call
ing them. We must assume that he would
not allow costs to party for witnesses
that were unnecessarily called, or in a
case like the present for witnesses who
were not called for the respondent. There
IS nothing in the record in the present
case which shows that the court did not
properly exercise it's discretion in refus-
ing to strike out the items objected to.

that the witnesses named in the bill of
costs were not necessary for the defense

hearing a contest was inaugurated be-
tween Bauquier and the Public Aminis-

of Bauquier and Smith, and appointed
the Public Administrator, and thereupon
Bauquier took this appeal
An appeal had been previously taken
by Mrs Rode from the order denying her
application to be appointed executrix.
Since the submission of this case here,
that order has been reversed and thereby
the right of Mrs. Rode to be appointed
executriX apparently settled. The
matters involved III this appeal therefore
have become practically of little conse-
quence.
We think, however, it must be held in
this case, that it was error to hold that the
fact that Frank Bauquier was preiudiced
against his sister disqualified him to act
as administrator Therefore the order
denying his application and appointing
the Public Administrator should be re-
