PROBATE COURT DOINGs.


 There is to be considerable litigation over the estate of the late Margaret , Courtney, which has lain for seven years without the appointment of an administrator.
 In the probate court yesterday an ap- plication was made by John Courtney for appointment as administrator over the estate of his wife Margaret by Rep resentative J. F. Bree. It was opposed by Attorney c. T. Coyle, representing one of the sons, John J. Courtney Mrs. Courtney owned at the time of her death property on Thorn street and on Washington avenue. Attorney Coyle opposed the appointment of John Courtney because he had not been able to handle the property in. the past. He said that the father had induced the children to raise a mortgage on the property to the amount of Sl,500. This was done, and now the holder has brought action to foreclose on the mort gage.
 Judge Cleaveland said that under the statute it would be impossible for him to appoint the father if one of the heirs objected. Judge Cleaveland raised the QuCGliOI WHclnGI lilt iSil NptiN ihSiSs upon the appointment of an adminis- trator inasmuch as the father has a life interest in the estate and had also married before v, which gave him an additional claim on the property. The matter was continued until next Mon- day in order that arguments could be heard upon the question which had been raised by Judge Cleaveland.
 Ex-Judge HotchkisS, representing the Masonic Temple company, made a statement in the probate court yester- day morning in relation to the assets of Atherton l.. Barnes, the printer. Judge Hotchkiss informed the court that the Masonic Temple company had a mortgage for $262 and interest upon MT. Barnes machinery and type. MT. Barnes gave him a power of attorney to sell all the type and machinery. sale was advertised for Saturday, and while Judge Hotchkss was out of town on Friday Mir. Barnes failed. Judge Hotchkiss said that he had a no- tice pasted on the door to the effect that the goods therein belonged to the Masonic Temple company.
 No action was taken by the court, but it is likely that if the machinery and type are held by the sheriff a replevin suit will be brought against the sheriff to recover possession.
 Yesterday morning Judge A. Heaton Robertson, representing Mrs. Kimberly of Sioux City, Iowa, and Mrs. Kelsey of this city, made application for final from the executors of George K. Kelsey, father of Mrs Kel- sey and Mrs. Kimberly, of their hand ling of the estate Thursday was set as the day for the hearing. filling, Webb & Warehouse appear for the ex- ecutors.

TEMPERANCE AND LONGEVITY.

Alcott's Teacher of Health for 1S49, in an article on temperance as means of preserving life, gives the following valuable facts: A woman was living, quite recently, at Glasgow, Scotland 13O years ago. For century she had not felt pain. Her father died at the age of 12O. and her grandfather at 129 years of age. A woman died In England, a few years ago, at the age of 110 leaving 450 descendants. In Shetland water thinker lived to the age of 10S. His son lived longer than he. The celebrated Thomas Parr was born in the reign of Henry the Fourth, and was taken to London by Lord Arundel in 1885 and in troduced to Charles the Second; but the change of situation and his altered mode of life, particularly drinking wine, soon proved fatal to a constitution accus- toned to more abstemious habits, and he died the same year at the age of 152. One of his sons died at the age of 109; a grandson died at the age of 113; and great grandson died aged 124 A peculiar trait in the character of these for generations of Parrs was their temperate habits.
