sILvEEN NO LONGER.
Aaron of That Tx Feared to Be Thought
a BFYanite,

Aaron Sillveen of this city has be-
come weary of his title which would
lead his friends to believe him a silver
lite. and thinking that, after all, there
is something in a name, has petitioned
the probate court for a new cognomen.
The rose by any other name would
smell as sweet, but Mr.. Sillveen accepts
the comparative degree and hopes to
conduct his business transactions in the
future with more ease IN the use Of
his name. and with better results to his
friends.
While for some time, in fact, since
he was born, he has borne the name
of Aaron Sillveen, friends have persist
ed in calling him Erickson. The title
has been applied to him so long that
1t seems more natural to him than the
real name of Sillveen, and accordingly
Mr.. Sillveen. after many vexatious ex-
periences, appealed to the courts, and
yesterday Judge Forbes made Aaron
Sillveen Aaron Erickson, after a due
legal christening. Representative
Charles r. johnson appeared for Mr..
S1llveen. and after the reasons had
been given, Mr.. Sillveen's prayer was
allowed Mr.. Erickson was born in
Svarta. Sweden. and has resided there
and in Worcester.
