at Barnums circus in the Coliseum one
Of is members, John. met with an ao-
cidont which is likely to prove fatal.
Dropping from bar so feet to net be.
low, his body turned too much and no
alighted almost full on the head. The
acrobat lay where he had fallen and tho
attendants in the ring near by picked
Durham mp. laid him in tho sawdust
and called n physician.
An examination showed that the
spine Of the acrobat had been severely
injured. Although he retained con-
sciousness. he was unable to move, and
his lower limbs seemed paralyzed. A
carriage was called and he was taken TO
the Chicago hospital. whore the physi.
clans regard his hopes Of recovery as
small.
John Durham and the,Dunham fam.
lily have been well known to the public
for many years. The Urial bar act in
which he was injured has been regard.

first time in six years that any accident
has resulted. Tho injured man is %

CHICAGO, Oct. 2i.-A San Francisco
pecial dispatch to a local paper says that
Cuban atrocities arc mild compared
% those taking place in tho Philippine
stands, where the Spanish are trying to
luppress a revolt Of the natives. Some
Indication Of affairs has been learned
from oriental papers. The most shock.
ny incident Of the bloody roprisals was
The treatment Of n Spanish lieutenant
aud his family.
Tho Spanish had captured a number
IF prisoners and as an object lesson TO the
natives disembowelcd two and swung
their bloody bodies ON one Of the gates
of the town. The infatuated rebels.
eager for vengeance. gathered a force
and hurried TO the home Of the Spanish
lieutenant ON the outskirts Of Manila.
They captured the officer, his wife
and l9-year-old daughter. and then be.
gan a bloody scene OF torture.
The most savage instincts Of the ma.
tivcs were aroused. Before the eyes Of
his wife and daughter the lieutonant's
skin was slit all over his body. Then
the torturers cruoihed him, pinning him
outstrolched 20 a tree with their long
knives. They then turned TO tho won.
an aud girl, giving the fullest play to
their animal instincts and wreiking a
disgusting vengeance before the dying
eyes OF tic husband and father.
The Spanish are doing their best %
keep the news Of these atrocities fro.z
leaving the island They particularly
desire to keep unknown tho death Of %
prisoners in one night in the black
hole"

BY The COURT OF APPEALS
Several Important Opinions Handed
Down Yesterday.
Interesting Decision in VIII Case.
OleOmargerine Suits
Decided.

The court of appeals handed down q
number OF decisions yesterday afternoon.
In the case OF Israel X ollock. convicted
under two indictments of violating the
laws regulating the sale OF oleomarga.
rine, Justice Morris writing the opinion,
held that no serious effort had been
made to maintain the contentious upon
which the appeal was taken.
In the Indictment for selling Oleo without
proper brand, the question OF constitn
uonality Of the law was raised. This,
Judge Morris says, was settled by the court
sustaining the law in Prather VS.. the United
States.
The Indictment for selling without
license was attacked as not defining what
is a retail dealer. Judge Morris holds
that the statute sufficiently defines ''oI 20
margarine and retail DEALER" and no
further definitions are required in the ill.,
dictment.
The decision Of the court below is af-
firmed and Mr.. kollock must suffer the
penalty.
The will Of William E Matthews, in an
opinion written by Chief Justice Alvey, is
held not To convey property acquired after
it was made. The suit was by j. T. Brad
ford and II. 7. Williams for an interpreta-
tion OF the will.
Judge Alvey says that prior to 1887 no
question existed that will could not
convey real estate acquired after 1t was
written. An act Of Congress OF that date
made 1t possible by specific terms to
devise real estate SO acquired, but the
meaning or the testator must be plainly
expressed. There was nothing In the will
of Mr.. Matthews to comply with the re-
quirement OF this law for a clear statement
OF Intention.
Ine dryIsion sustains the court below and
gives real estate bought by Matthews in
a. lufnr nf his lif. Tn his Iauphfar
Eurelta h. Matthews, AS his heir alta W
The result takes from the Association for
Aged Colored Women and Children, Oh
Eighth street in tbs city. and from the
Shelter for Aged and Infirm Colored Per
sons, in Baltimore, considerable residue
of the estate which would have gone to
them under the will.
Matthews owned at he time of his death
sixteen lots of ground in this city and
county.
ine suit of William C. whittcmon against
Thomas Darden was decided by affirmance
of the court below, allowing Darden judg
ment for $500, paid as deposit in
real estate trade. Darden was 10 pay
$4,000 for one-sixth of Malvern Park,
and the trade was to be closed in twenty
days, upon showing good title The tille
company employed by Darden declared the
title to part of the ground to be not
perfect.
WhittemOn undertook to make ii perfect
although he held with his title company
that IT was already SO. He obtained two
quit claim deeds to satisfy the purchasers
demand but one OF them was two and a
half months in arriving When it came he
failed to notify Darden and subsequently,
sold the land to another party.
The court holds that in obtaining the adj
ditional deeds Whittemon admitted the title
to be imperfect and in failing to notify
nulfied the trade. He must refund The
lenpSit
