the will Of George Eaton, who died
III May last, has been commenced by
John w. Lane and John G. Quinby,
trustees under the will. The defend
ants are Charles Eaton, Darlington
Booth, the Central Park M. E. church
and other legatees. The estate was
valued at $4,000. and the deceased
left one-third Of it to his heirs, one
third to the Salvation Army, and the
other third, less some small requests,
was to go to the Central Park church,
to be used in mission work The third
left to the Salvation Army was to be
held in trust by the executors and
used for the erection of a building for
the army, which was to become the
absolte property Of the organization
should it ever become organized so
that 1t could hold property. The Sal
walton Army not being a corporate
body, the executors desire the advice
of the court as to how to proceed.

MADE A GOOD WITNESS,
For He Frightened Up the Whole
Proceedings.

Proceedings.
An amusing bit of repartee took
place in Judge Kelly's court yesterday
afternoon. in the hearing of the suit
of Adolph M. Drefahl against the st.
Paul City Railway company. William
Stahl, a nervous little man, who speaks
with quick, German accent, was on
the stand testifying for the plaintiff,
and on cross-eXamination, Attorney
Mum, for the defense, asked him how
long Seltzer another witness for the
plaintiff, had known Drefahl.
II couldn't TELL" was the reply.

mo, no"
GAS matter of fact he doesn't know
him at all" interrupted Ed Thompson,
attorney for the plaintiff.
Il will put you under oath when I
want your statement" retorted Mr..
Mum, addressing himself to Thompson,
but still keeping his eyes fastened on
the witness, not condescending to turn
around and look at his opponent.
'Well, you may" said Thompson.
Eyes, and if 1 don't have some fun
with you for about fifteen minutes"
said Mum, still looking at the witness.
He then repeated his Question.

You don't know whether he knows
him or not?"

the witness peculiar response now.
How long has he known him?"

all, and you say he does know him, >
said Mr.. Mum, smiling, and all pres
emf including the court broke out in
a laugh.
'Well, I guess Settler he knows Dire
fahl," was the witness cool reply.
"Of course he knows him." said Mr..
Mum, positively.
YES" replied the witness.
But counsel says he don't know

ingly, and the levity was over,

LAST OF THE LIST.
Damage Suits Caused by 1892 Storm
Finally End.

In the case of Taubert VS.. The City
Of st. Paul, which has been on trial
before Judge Egan for the last two
days, the jury returned verdict yes
terday for $2,341.50 in favor Of the
plaintiff. This case is the last of six
teen cases that were brought against
the city to recover for destruction Of
property by the great storm Of July
26, 1892, in all of which the city was
compelled to pay heavy damages
Mr.. Taubert was running tan
merry on the West side and his build
ings, machinery and other property
were washed away. The cause of the
trouble was a defective culvert under
Sydney street, which was too small to
carry off the water Of the creek it was
built to drain.
His actual loss with interest from
July 26, 1892, he claimes amounted to
about $4,000, and he was unwilling to
settle for less than $500, so that the
verdict under the circumstances is
small one.

HE VIII NOT CALL.

The attention of the world is drawn
by Berlin dispatches to the. fact that
Emperor William does not intend to
visit England this year; his decision is
construed TO be one Of the evidences
of a growing feeling of unfriendliness
between Great Britain and Germany.
The more rational conclusion is that
the fear of a breach is made less prob
able by the fact of the absence Of the
emperor from London. 1t is his GUS
tom to swagger when he is on Eng
lish soil; he gives freedom to his I'm
bridled tongue; he brings about awk-
ward situations and embarrasses his
relatives in the court circles.
The Prince of Wales is probably the
cleverest man in Europe in the man
agement of court functions and that
sort Of thing. He is Europe's social
leader. He has often had his nephew,
the German emperor. to deal with and,
on more than one occasion, the tact of
the English prince has been severely
taxed in the effort to have things go
smoothly during the time of the en-
peror's sojourn in London. There is no
limit to the trouble Germany's bolster
Gus lord can brew. even when a simple
social ceremony furnishes the oppor-
tunity. He is bound to have a big
