church greeting the worshipers on en-
tering or leaving with the usual suppl
cation-"radi Krista' (for Christ's
sake). One reason, perhaps, for the
increase Of the tramp species is the fact
that the peasantry always share the
hospitality Of their cabins with them,
giving them a place by the stove and
a portion Of their simple fare. In the
cities the goriouns have regular lodg-
ing houses and also what might almost
be deemed a regular calling, that OF
paid mourners at funerals. The agen-
cies which manage the latter furnish
the gorioun clothes for the occasion
and a torch, thus enabling him to make
a respectable figure, and pay him 40
kopecks for his services, which, of
course, promptly goes for vodka, as the
Russian tramp, like his congener in all
other countries, is addicted to strong
drink, a fact which also is perhaps the
chief explanation of why he is a tramp.

rare presence of mind probably avert
ed q tragedy.
The trouble, which attracted a crowd
and is talked about all over town to-
day, was between Moses Dillon, United
States customs collector at this port,
and h. r. Wood, tie realty dealer and
insurance agent. It occurred at hall
past eight o'clock. commencing in
Wood g Office and ending on the street
in front of the HERALD Office.
What provoked the quarrel could not
be ascertained, but the following is Mr..
Woods statement:
"Shortly after O'Clock 1 was seated
at the desk in my office, when in walk
ed Dillon.
''The only person in my Office at the
time was J. B. Ragsdale, my clerk.
81 said Good morning to Dillon and
asked him to be seated. He refused,
saying he had come to me for an apo
logy and wanted me to retract certain
remarks that he claimed l had made
against him. 1 told him 1 would Hot
make an apology to him unless he first
made an explanation to me, as
thought one was due me.
Cali this time he stood standing
with his hand resting on his right
hip.
'sWhen 1 refused to make the spol-
ogy he cursed and said 1 would, and
that he had come there for blood and
intend ed to have it, at the same time
drawing down on me with big six
shooter as ] sat in my chair.
81 had heard on the streets last night
that he had it in for me and for the
first time in great many years l went
to my Office this morning carrying a
six shooter.
"As Dillon drew down on me 1 hur-
riedly unfastened my vest and pulled
my gun. AS did so, Dillon says, oh b!
you've got q gum and started to back
out of the door. AS he did SO my
clerk, Mr.. Rsgsdale followed him out
and took the gun away from him.
81 followed them both to the pave
ment and Dillon was leaning against
the wall and Mr.. Rsgsdale struggling
to get the gun from him. After he
was disarmed. he walked back into
my Office again, trying to explain him
self. and finally left.
Had Mr.. Ragsdale not stepped in
front of Dillon as he did 1 would In ali
probability have shot him."
Collector Dillon was afterwards seen
at the custom house, but refused to
make statement, saying that he pre-
ferred let Mr.. Wood do all the talking"
The trouble is said to have been the
outcome of little incident which hap
pened yesterday afternoon.

NINA VS.. WILDER
Supreme Court ReVerSeS
a Decision.
Construction of the Terms of
VIII and an Agreement Of
Sale Involved.

The Supreme Court has decided the
case of Nina vs.. Elizabeth X. Wilder,
and reverses the decree of the First
Circuit Court. The case was heard by
Justice Whiting and l.. a. Thurston
and A. S. Humphreys, members of the
bar, sitting in place of the Chief JUS
tice and Justice Frear. By a stipula-
ton in writing the decision is rem
dered by two of the judges, Mr.. Thurs
tor being absent from the country.
The decision is an elaborate one, from
the pen of A. S. Humphreys, Esq, COW
ering some eighteen typewriter
pages. The order of the Court is that
the decree appealed from is reversed,
with instructions TO enter a decree in
consonance wit hthe prayer of the bill,
upon compliments executing to de-
fedant deed with full covenants OF
warranty.
The legal points decided in this case
are contained in the syllabus, as fol-
lows:
A testator devised certain lands to
his wife, son, daughters and grand
children, concluding the devise with
| the following language: The above
enumerated property is for them all
and their heirs and representatives for
ever By subsequent clause in the
will it is provided that, eff one of them
should die, his or her share shall not
go to his or her husband or wife, but
| if he or she shall leave chilren, then
his or her share shall go to such child
or children, and any of them who shall
have no children, his or her share shall
go to those remaining without any d.
vision of his or her share"
~. %1la, no n d
visees take a fee simple absolute, which
was by the subsequent clause cut down
to fee simple, defeasible on the death
of the respective devisees, without
leaving a child or children, in which
event the property vests in the surviv-
or or survivors by way of eXecutory
devise
The expression eff one of them
should die has reference not to the
death of the devisees in the lifetime of
the testatOr, but to death at any time.
1.-The enjoyment of the estate by those
ultimately entitled being postponed to
a future day by a supervening estate,
it is but just to make the chances OF
IsurvivOrship applicable to such future
day.
The preamble, or proem, OF Will
may be considered in constituting the
instrument, and, in doubtful cases, IL
may control.
| A deed from the owners Of the con-
ltingent fee, together with release
from the executory devisees, will con-
yey a good and sufficient title; and an
agreement for the sale of land entered
into between the owners of contln-
gent fee and the eXecutOry deVlseeS
with a second party will be specifically
enforced against such second party.
