ON THE USE OF PERFUMES.

was putting new braid on my second
best gown, said:

thing you can smell long way off, but
something which makes you think OF
roses or violets when she passes you on

Maria G. likes perfumes, but does not
know how to use them.

Perfumes are used sparingly by ele-
CANT people, yet a touch, a vague sense
of fragrance, does add something of
daintiness to girls toilette. It is right
for you to have perfumes about you if
you love them.

HIS DAUGHTERS PROPERTY.
Deeded to Her Father and Then Sold
Anain-,E,ha Title in Court.
Agafn-The Title

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, July 29, 1885,
George w. Cradduck, Stratford butch
er. is the plaintiff in suit instituted
today which has made him very un-
popular in that town. The defendant
is his own daughter, Miss Amy M. Grad
duck, % years old. Nine years ago John
Cradduck, the plaintiffs uncle, died in
Stratford leaving to his nephew land
worth $,0OO and to the latter's daughter
property worth about So, 900. He quit
claimed the property to both and every
thing went smoothly until the girl
reached her majority a year ago. Then,
she says. her parents asked her to deed
her portion back to them. as it was
given to her simply to hold until her ma
iority so that she would be protected
against want if they should die in the
meantime. The girl was reluctant to do
this but finally consented. and month
ago she transferred the property to her
father.
Soon after, the latter told his daughter
that she would have to support herself
if she intended to remain with him.
Her health has been poor for nearly a
year. Now she realized her mistake. She
consulted a lawyer and a search of the
records showed that her father had
failed to have recorded her
transfer of the property. Another pur-
chaser was then secured. and last week
George M. Robertson was given a deed
of the property by the girl. This
brought about the present suit. Grad
duck asks that Robertson be enjoined
from collecting the rents and asks that
the property be restored to him.

he has solved the problem of aerial nav

Mr. Cooley has worked twelve years in
solving the air ship problem, and the
trial trip was only made last Fourth of
July. He read and studied the theories
advanced by men who had written on
the subject but followed a different

Cooley resembles in its principles

thing. He sought to create the resist

AGAINST BEN BUTLER'S ESTATE.
Accounting To BE Made I'm Large
Tract Ea,ate.


BOSTON, July %, 1S95.-Judge Knowl-
ton of the Supreme Judicial Court has
rendered decision against the estate
of General B. f. Butler in the four cases
brought by holders of Colorado Cattle
Company bonds to recover a sum aggre-
eating over S2lSoOO on the ground of all
legged fraud and deceit on the part of
General Butler, who managed, it is al
legged, to get possession of the bonds
after foreclosure of the mortgage, by
fraud and deceit pract.sed on the other
bondholders, to whom ne represented
that the property was of practically no
value and that all they could get for
their bonds would be clear gain as they
were almost yalueless.
The plaintiffs in this commonwealth
are Louise D. Houghton, H. c. Hough-
ton and Mary L. c. Leland, wife of Ed
ward f. LELAND of West Newton their
joint claim being about SIS, 600; the plain
tiffs outside this commonwealth are ].
H. Bond, E. L. E. HAMMOND, executor;
John Thompson ard II. NJ. Knapp. The
cases We're argued in June or demurrers
fled by the defendants, who are the
administrators of General Buffers estate.
Judge Knowlton overrules the demurrers
anu HcjuS <t4iattrFbiie pldllttilAS nave a
standing in a court of equity. The ques-
tons raised by the cenurrers were
novel and important, several of them
never having been decided before in
this commonwealth
Judge Knowlton says:--'1 have no hesi-
tation i'll holding that the relations of
the defendants testator to the property
and to the sales as set ont in the several
bills were such as to give jurisdiction to
court of equity to grant relief if he
was guilty cf the misconduct eqharged."
Judge Knowlton further decides that
the plaintiffs in three of the cases where
the plaintiffs live outside the Common
wealth may amend their bills in or to
strengthen them and in conclusion says:
1.-THE question which gives me most
trouble is whether this kind of relief
III equity can be had and a compensation
in money as for damages can be secured
for frauds discovered since the death OF
General Butler. Perhaps it may be said
that it is merely an attempt to make
him account as trustee for the fair
value of property which he obtained and
appropriated without paying more than
small part of Its value. I am in
cined hesitatingly to answer the question
in the Affirmative and to overrule the
demurrer in each case unless some other
method of disposing of the cases will
better suit the convenience of the parties
and at the same tine promote justice.
These entries win be made unless a sug
gestion or some better way is made
soon -

that Rev. MIR. Finch had had a call from
a certain church in Brooklyn (Which
one he refuses to state at this time),
but he had promised that he would not
accept the call.
1t is rumored that he had some trouble
with one of the deacons in the church
and it was because of this that ne
changed his mind.
Rev. Mr.. Finch. however, denied this
morning that he had had any trouble
with anyone in the church, and that he
only accepted the CALL because il was
a larger and better field. He declined
to say to what church he is going.
