(iEI DIV l)END ON WHOLE CLAIM,
ALTHOUGH HE HAD JUDGMENT
IN ANOTHER STATE IN WHICH
LAND CONVEYED IN ASSIGNMENT
WAS SITUATED.
Reynolds made an assignment in
North Carolina in trust for his credi-
tors. conveying all his real and person.
al Property, including al ms Iand n
Patrick county, Virginia. The trust
deed provided for certain creditors in
the fourth class, of which plaintiffs
were preferred for 800. After the as
slSnmcnt WAS made the plaintiffs on
tanned a judgment by confession in
Patrick county. Va, for their debt, and
mad the Judgment docleted in that
county. AT that time plaintiffs knew
that Reynolds had made an assign
meHt, but did not think ii conveyed the
Virginia lands. They had not yet re-
ceived anything on their judgment but
expected 10 receive the proceeds OF said
lands The court says:
The plaintiffs, as fourth-class cred
itors. claim the right TO file their whole
claim, and receive from the trustee
their proportion of the fund now in
hand. and satisfy the balance out OF
the sale of the Virginia lands. if they
can, and pay any balance of said land
proceeds to the said trustee. :
ihe defendant contention is that the
plaintiffs, having taken Judgment and
levied on the Virginia lands, have not
the right now to receive any part of
The fund in hand, held FOR the fourth
class creditors.
I'VE are without jurisdiction over the
Virginia land. Every cour,
must have jurisdiction of the subject.
at least, before ii can adjudge any
thing. y judgment creditor has no
JUS IN RE, bui only the power to make
the steps of the law, by an execution
and levy on the lands. The alleged lien
in this case was not obtained in this
way. but by a docketed judgment; and
that is statutory regulation in eacn
State. and what that regulation is in
Virginia we are not informed. The law
Of another State must be proved like
any other matter of fact. When tha
defendants accepted the trust created
by the assignment they agreed to ad-
minister the proceeds of the property
according 10 the provisions and in the
manner directed by the deed and we
do not see any reason why they should
not perform their contract. While we
cannot and do not undertake to make
any order affecting the rights of the
faurth-class creditors in the Virginia
lands We do not see any reason why
they may not litgate with each other
in respect thereto, in any court having
authority 10 act, if they are so dis
posed"

Sing Sing, March 1S.-Mrs. Martina
Place is under sentence of death next
week for the murder of her stepdauShter.
The courts have refused her appeal and
the governor will not interfere. She Will
be the first woman to suffer electrocutlon
since the law went into effect. The most
remarkable thing about Mrs. Place is her
recent requirement of a deep religious
frame of mind. She prays often, falling
on her knees in the middle of the day and
remaining long in his attitude OF sup

Mrs. Places sentence, on the
ground that it would be barbarous to put

NEW OFFICERS IN
THE MARINE CORPS

Washington, March 1S.-The navy de-
partment has taken preliminary steps
toward the additional second lieutenants
in the marine corps provided by the laval
reorganization bill. Recognizing the
superior claims to appointment of the
young officers who volunteered for SER
vice in this corps during the war with
Spain, Secretary Long has given per-
mission to so many of them as care to re-
enlist in the service to appear for eX-
animation before the special board which
will be created for this urpose When
their cases have been disposed of and not
until then, the list will be open to such
other applicants as may secure the secre-
tary's permission to appear for competi-
ton. There are only eighty vacancies in
the corps and as IS officers of the volun-
teer forces lave signified their desire to
submit to examination, presuming they
all succeed in passing, but As places will
remain to be filled.

ban nd to come home. At the door she hit
him several blows on the head with an
AK, nearly killing him. He recovered
after several months. Mrs. Place was
brought TO trial on July 6, last, in the
Kings county court, before Judge Hurd.
She was convicted in one week and sent
to Sing Sing to await execution, which
was set for August 90. An appeal got
her a stay, but now that appeal has been
adversely decided.
One New York a~ssemblyman intro
duced a bill to take the responsibility for
Mrs. Places fate out of the governors
hands. This bill amends the penal code
and provides that, Murder in the first
degree is punishable by death, except in
the case of a female, who has been or
who shall hereafter be found guilty of
Imprisonment for the offenders natural
life" 1t has thus far not even been con-
Sidered.

walla Tonka shot. but they We're disap-
pointed because of arriving on the day
after this incident. The Choctaws had
purposely given out the wrong date for
the execution, and no one except the i'm
mediate friends knew the real time.
Hence the romance of Tonka's life still
remained a secret.
The next April the same incident was
repeated, and the sentence was reprieved
until February q, 1899. The writer, then
residing in the Cherokee Nation, had been
present at both dates, but unfortunately
as did the others, arrived upon the wrong
day.
Last summer came the change in indian
Territory courts, and the power of saving
Tonka's life changed from the Indian
Judge at Eufaula to Judge Clayton at
South McAlester.
Judge Clayton is a stern man from the
East, and he was determined that thisI In
dian murderer should die when the next
execution day arrived.
But when Tookah, the bright-eyed and
soft-voiced creature, appeared before
him and begged for her husbands life he
succumbed to her pleadings, and Tonka
was again reprieved. However, he made
the girl tell her story, and then she
mounted a swift horse and rode off into
the forest, to arrive at the execution
grounds in time to stay the fatal bullet
for a third time.
Its a good thing to have such a brave
little Wife" writes Walla Tonka, the
baseball hero.

path" adds his paleface savior. Perhaps
Tonka never will be shot nOw.- Judge
