WILL FIGHT FOR FORTUNE.
And Then Marry the Man of Her
Choice.
Nv York journal.

New York JOurnal.)
Miss Fannie Payne McComb has not
defaulted her right to an equal Dor-
ton of her dead fathers priceless es-
tate by marrying Artist Louis HerzOg.
She is still heart whole and fancy
free, as indicated by an action at law
instituted yesterday by the young
heiress against the Title Guaranty &
Trust company. as executor of the viii
of her father, the late James Jennings
McComb, who died worth millions.
The present action calls for a con-
stTuctiOn of the dead milliOnaire's re-
markable viii by a codicil to which
Miss McCOmb was cut off with an in
come of $4,000 a year should she marry
HerzOg.
Miss McComb has not welded Artist
HerzOg, and, according to her view,
has not therefore forfeited her right
to an equitable share in the estate Of
her dead father.
Such a share means an income Of at
least S300, 900 a year to the young wO-
man, whereas marriage with the artist
means the payment to her of the COM
paratively small annuity of $4,000.
Whether Miss McComb eventually in
tends to become the artists bride does
rot appear.
The fact remains, however, that
neither he nor the young woman, whom
be admires greatly, have ceased devot-
ing their attention to each other It
remains, however, that if Justice Scott,
before whom argument was heard yes
terday, renders a decision in her favor,
there viii be no bar to the marriage of
the young couple.

COMMENT OF THE PRESS.
Newspapers of Paris Discuss the
Closing Of the Incident.

Closing Of the Incident.
Paris, Nov. 1.-THE morning papers.
in their comments upon the termina-
ton of the Franco Turkish incident
follow party lines strictly. The sup
pOrters of the government hail the out
come as a great diplomatic, moral and
material success. Other journals
either affect scepticism with reference
TO the final outcome or assume that It
is really a check disguised under the
more or less ilIusOry concessions prom
ised by the sultan. Some papers even
hint that France has actually backed
down owing to the coolness with which
the powers have received her explana-
tons regarding the objects and scope
of the naval demonstration.
We hope the demonstration will be
sufficient to restore forever the prestige
of France in the east, says the Fl
CARO-. Doubtless the very near fu-
ture Wal show if so great a result has
been obtained so cheaply."
The GaulOis. while admitting that a
success has been achieved, remarks
The instability of the government and
the contradictions of its diplomacy are
such that even the sultan thought
there was no risk in treating the
French like mere Armenians. The Mi
tylene expedition is said to have dis
abused him, but must we always mo-
Billie a fleet in order to force a for
eign nation to respect us?"
The SOleil remarks. We have an
other promise added to so many. We
are somewhat in a hurry in announc-
ing the end Of the Turkish con-
hict."
The Petit Parisien, which voices the
view OF the government. says: 1T is
for France a considerable diplomatic
success. The rapidity and precision OF
the movement Of the SQUADRON was q
military success which Europe has no.
ticed. Our dignity in the Levant and
our moral authority issue from tbs

Regarding a New Star.
San Jose. Cal, Nov. 10.-W. w.
Campbell of the Lick observatory, has
issued a bulletin regarding a recent and
somewhat important discovery made by
Professor Perrine, an attache of the OBJ
serva bary on Mount Hamilton, in refer
ence to the new star in the constella-
ton Perseus- This star appeared sud
denly and unexpectedly last February,
having been discovered by Anderson in
Edinburgh. For four days its bright
ness increased from invisibility in ordi-
nary telescopes until it became the
brightest star in the northern sky.
The stars atmosphere was violently
disturbed as shown by a study Of its
spectrum IN the spring months and
since June at least the spectroscope mas
shown that it is now a nebula. though
retaining to the eye and in the tele-
scope the pOint-like form of an ordi-

THE WIDOW TAX.
In Mindanao a Wife's Death Costs
Widower One Hundred Plates.
Boise Statesman1

Boise StatesmanJ
Becoming a widow or widower is a
much more serious business than get
ting married among some of the tribes
in the Philippines. In Mindanao mar
rying in haste" often leads to a pro-
lOnged "repenting al leisure, for they
have an institution there known as the
widow "chabalOan" the natives
can it. Upon the death OF the wife the
GidOWer must pay a certain sum of
money or its equivalent in goods to his
father-in-law before he can go a-cOurt-
ing again. AS money is scarce article
among these natives, the tax generally
is paid in plates of common stone chi
na which are much used by the ma
tives as a medium of exchange. 1t is
considered the proper thing for the be-
reaved one to pay 100 of these plates TO
his father-in-law for permission to look
about him for a successor to the de-
ceased helpmate.
If the husband dies, the widow at
once becomes the property of her pa
rents-in-law and SO remains for life IN
less some relative comes forward and
produces the necessary number of din
ner plates. The natural result of this
is that married people are all extremely
solicitous for the health of each other.
In sickness the invalid is sedulously at
tended by the partner of his or her joys
and sorrOws. the well person perhaps
being moved more by the thought OF
those hundred plates than by real af-
lection.
Divorce is unkaown among these peo-
pie, but man may have as many
wives as he pleases. It viii be seen
that in case Of an epidemic which
would sweep away his wives a married
man would be in dire extremity. In
the case of a death of a much married
man his parents come into a small for
tune, for they either have enough
slaves to render future work on their
part unnecessary or they receive
enough plates from the families of the
widows to set up a crockery. store.
