FISHES IN LINE

RanEed Side By Side In = Row. like . Section
or soldiers.
1t is not unusual at the Aquarium to sec In .
tank the fishes all together side by side and
heads in a line. like platoon or section of men.
They remain thus for q considerable time
Most fishes are gregarious, they keep together
In schools in the water, and here they seem to
keep together for company's sake. Sometimes
all the fishes in q tank but ono will be lined up
In this way side by side and headed in one direc-
tion, while the single fish will be back of tho
others, and headed the other way. Then the
suggestion OF soldiers conveyed TO the mind by
the fishes in line Is strengthened. For the
single fish seems to be a rear guard, looking out
for the enemy in that direction.

CONTEsTING THE POINTS.
Trial Begun in Suit Over Anna
NOrth's VIII.

The trial of the contested will case, in
volving the estate of the late Anna North,
was begin today before Judge Cole in Cir
cult Court No. 1. The controversy is one
that involves large amount of property,
and several points of decided interest, it is
expected, will be developed during the
hearing.
The late Anna North died July p, 1897,
and by her will, dated in June, 1896. she
bequeathed her possessions to William
O'Donnel, a brother; Abbie O'Donnel. his
wife; Simeon, Marian s. and Belle O'Don-
mel, John w. and Mary E. Mcdonnell,
Arna Stewart, Anna w. Wysham, Marie
Swain, Adele Louise Dubose, Anna Hamil-
ton and the Eastern Dispensary. The be-
quest to the latter institution was $1,000.
A caveat to the will was filed September
3, last, by Gardner H. ODonnel, a son Of
Thomas p. ODonnel. He alleged that the
psrer filed for probate was not the last
will of Anna North; that it was executed
under undue influence exercised by those
named as beneficiaries, or the executor, or
some other person, that the signature was
obtained by fraud, and that at the time Of
execution, the deceased, because of age and
infirmity, was not of sound and disposing
mind, but was mentally oblivious as TO
what she owned
Messrs. E. H. Thomas and A. S. Worth
ington are the attorneys for the caveatees,
while Messrs. Enoch Totten, w. H. Dennis
and Thomas NJ. Fields are looking after
the interests of the caveators.

Grand Army men who heard the gossip
about Gen Vincent expressed opposition to
the selection of regular army officer to a

past by volunteer officers, and it is proba BILE

in the encampment next month will be
awaited with eagerness quite unusual on
