WRIT GRANTED.
Mandamus to Compel the Filing Of
Paper without Fee.

Justice Clabaugh, in Circuit Court No. 2.
late yesterday afternoon granted the petit
tion of Mamie Hamilton. Daniel A. Slaught-
er and Edwin A. Slaughter, for a writ Of
mandamus to compel the register OF wills
for the District of Columbia to file in his
office certain paper writing presented by
the petitioners in connection with the set
tlement of the estate Of James E. Slaught-
er. The petitioners contended that the
paper was in due form of law and In ac-
cordance with the rules of the Probate
Court. The register declined to file the
paper unless a deposit OF SIS was made
with him by the petitioners, maintaining
that in making this demand Of deposit he
was merely obeying an order of the court.
1t was held by Justice Clabaugh that
there is no statute or order of the court in
existence that warranted the register in
making the demand of deposit under the
circumstances that figure in the Slaughter
case.
An appeal from the ruling to the Court of
Appeals was noted in behalf of the regis
ter. The matter is one that has been fol-
lowed with interest by members of the bar,
they being divided on the question of
whether or not the register is authorized
to demand a deposit to cover costs in GER
tain cases before filing the papers therein.

ON TOUR OF INSPECTION.
Commissioners Seek Location for
AlmshOuse and Cemetery.

The land extending from the Pennsylva-
the Anacostia river to Benning bridge was
inspected yesterday by the District Com
mSSioners with view to selecting sites
for the almshouse and a municipal ceme-
terry for the burial of INDECENT dead. No
conclusions regarding a selection have as
yet been reached.
The inspection will be resumed Monday.
when a visit will be paid to the northeast
section of the District. The Commission
ers have visited all other sections in which
property has been offered, and after view
ing the northeast on Monday it is expeet-
ed that final action will be taken in the
matter speedily.
In discussing other matters during the
drive, the Commissioners decided to award
the contract for asphalt paving for the
fiscal year ending June 80, 1902, to the
Warner-Quinlan Company of New York, the
lowest bidders. 1t is pointed out by the
Commissioners that according to the law
the Commissioners are authorized to award
contracts for the laying of street paving
equal in quality to asphalt pavement laid
prior to 1896, and at no greater price than
S1.S0 per square yard. 1t now develops
that prior to 1887 the pavements laid by
the other paving companies were Of Bar
Der asphalt which was at that time '1and
asphalt" Is proven by official communi-
cations The Barber company did not as
sumo control of their wonderful asphalt
lake until late in 1887. The pavements laid
with that sort of asphalt the Commission
ers state. are today as good as any laid
with the lake asphalt, the supposedly more
effective variety.

subject. however, Officer Z. l.. Lake, who
was In the court room. arose and walked
over to the defendant 'I'll help you out, "
he said. smilingly, TO the young man..
here's the money, and he pulled a
crumpled dollar out of his vest pocket.
The young mans embarrassing situation
had appealed to Lake. Stevenson gladly

Catarrh

The cause exists in the blood, in

1t is therefore impossible to cure
the disease by local applications.
1t is positively dangerous to ne
