BUTTE, Mont. July 22.-In ruling made
by Judge De Haven. in the United States
Court. to-day, the entire Andrew j. Davis
estate litigation is reopened, after the mat
ter was thought to have been amicabIy ar

of Erwin Davis, of New York. brother Of
the dead millionaire against Andrew j.

as he is, under the Will. Erwin Davis sues
for half the great estate, alleging that he
was promised that much for fighting the
claims of number of alleged children and
bringing about division of the property.
The win. which is alleged to have been
forged after a long fight, was admitted to
probate by agreement of the relatives OF
the dead man. Last winter the State Court
ordered a partial distribution and nearly
million was distributed Erwin Davis's
first suit was pending at the time in the
Federal Court. The defendants sought to
knock it out of court on demurrer. II was
this demurrer Judge De Haven overruled.
This allows the suit to be tried on its mer-
its. If Erwin Davis wins, those who have
received shares out of the estate and the
administrator and his bondsmen will be re-
sponsible for the money already divided.

the conclusion, since their fight for the Re-

Cuba recalled; nevertheless, it is well to
call to mind frequently how near to a ter

Sure Cure for Wrinkles.

When the skin is inclined to show
wrinkles lanoline is considered one of
the best possible treatments for dispell-
ing these evidences of the passage of
time. It closely resembles the natural
fat in which the wrinkled skin is de-
ficient, and it is more readily absorbed
by the drying pores than other greasy
preparations. Rub in carefully, gently
and slowly. first bathing the face
thoroughly in hot water and cocoanut
oil soap. Dry by pressing soft Old
damask towels to the skin. not rubbing
it in with the fingers. Let it stay until
morning. then wash the face in warm
water. using a little cocoanut oil soap
to remove the greasy feeling. Then
squeeze half lemon in large bowlful
OF tepid water and rinse off the face
drying with a soft damask towel.

of the adage: Marry in haste and re-

les are sometimes good TO couples who
wed without conventional deliberation,
as is proven by the story related by the
best man at Il recent wedding. About
as quick a wedding as ever heard of -
said he. was one in which i was the
matchmaker. 1t was about four years
ago, in 4 Louisiana country town. L
won't mention actual names. but shall
say that Percy Allen, of the country
town, and Miss Jessie Milton, q visitor
from New Orleans. met each other.
You know how it is in the country;
young people don't have to climb gar
den walls to be able to converse to-
gether. Well, in 4 week Percy and Jes-
sic were on pretty friendly terms, but
nobody suspected them of anything
more than friendship and they them
selves had no suspicion of anything
more serious. Now here is where L
come in; it was 1 who fixed them. for
life. BY the force of suggestion, as
in the case of Beatrice and Benedict
] caused them to see each other in an
entirely different light. We three were
walking down the street together. Sud-

at Percy and Jessie and said: What
fine couple you would make. l never
saw two persons better suited for each

SIC blushed. L would be perfectly will

if you wish to put it off, remarked
Percy, we shall make it tomorrow
When we reached the house Jessie went
into the parlor to receive the visit of
a young man. Percy came to me. He
was agitated. He said: Il wonder if
Jessie was only joking? 1 wonder if
she-would-have-m Il think So
/ answered She has told me that she
likes you AS 4 result Percy waited
until the young man left, and after
half an hours conversation with jos
sic matters were arranged. By noon
of the next day they were married and
on their way to New Orleans L &C
companied them to help Percy out. OF
course, Jessie's people raised all man
ner of row, but when they discovered
that Percy was a nice young fellow
and able to support wife, bless you.
my children followed and champagne
was opened Percy and Jessie are a
happy couple to-day, and they prob
ably wouldn't have had gumption
enough to come together unless / had
been there. Until events proved that it
was happy union was in mortal ter
ror because of my share in the affair,
and you may be sure would never play
such a part again. Marriage is much
too serious 4 matter to be entered into
in that way."-Chicago Chronicle
