YESTERDAY IN THE COUNTY COURTS

Judge Hawkins, OF the Orphans Court,
yesterday handed down an opinion in the
case of the contested will of the late r. c.
Henderson. In his will Mr.. Henderson dis
Inherited his only child, Mrs. Kate Turpin,
and divided his estate between the Little
Sisters uf the Poor and the Sisters OF Mercy.
Mrs. Turpn contested the will, alleging
tesiamentary incapacity, and that her father
hSd been laboring under an insane delusion.
Judge Hawkins said that the evidence
showed that Mr.. Henderson disinherited his
daughter because she had neglected him in his
old age, and because Of hls dislike of her hus-
band. Ii was clear that the will was not made
because Of an insane delusion, but was based
on existing facts. The evidence was not sufh
cieat 10 ju tify setting aside the will, and the
appeal was dismissed.

Agent Dean Threatens to Make Elmer

Agent Dean Threatens to Make Elmer
Collins Take Something to Eat
The condition OF Elmer Collins, the young
man, who has contracted to fast for 80 days, has
become very serious matter. and it is not i'm.
probable that legal steps will be taken to-day to
put an end to the exhibition. The doctors who
have been watching every change in the condi-
tion of Collins, seem to be absorbed In the sci
entiic phase of the affair, and are calmly indif-
ferent to the suffering and danger to the faster.
Yesterday afternoon a consultation between
leading people engaged IN humane work and q
prominent law firm was held. with view TO
putting a stop to the fast. The attention OF
Agent Dean, of the Anti-Cruelty Society. was
called To the matter. and he says that he Will
put stop TO the fast if it can legally be accom-
plished. Mr.. Dean says that Manager DAVIS
shifts the responsibility on the ground that the
fast is entirely voluntary on the part of Collins.
and that be has no power to compel the faster
to give up his foolhardy undertaking.
MIR. Davis tells Agent Dean and the Humane
Society people that he made the offer in
good faith. and that to end the fast now
would have a tendency TO create
a suspicion that he had not acted in good faith
with the faster. The museum manager further
says. however. that no consideration would
weigh a straw with him. if it can be absolutely
demonstrated that the life nf the faster is in
danger. and that if such proves to be true he
will pay Collins the 81, 900 ana do what he can
to persuade him to end the fast
