What It is Intended to Prove.

Counsel for the caveator said that they
offered to prove by the witness that, about
1877, when George w. Utermehe was in
yolved in a litigation dispute with some
of his family, he informed his grandson,
upon an occasion when he was taking the
boy home in his carriage, that he did not
want him to figure in the trouble, and that
he proposed to make provision for him
equally or as he would have done for the
lads father, or words to that effect. The
attorneys further stated that they proposed
to follow up such testimony with similar
statements said to have been made to the
witness and others, extending up to 4
period subsequent 10 the year 1SS2.
Attorney Perry went at length into the
discussion of the Holt case, contending that
it in no way applied to the one on hearing,
as the issues there were forgery and revo-
cation, and that the court in that case as
well all the previous authorities In this
juriSdiction he understood them, had
held such evidence to be admissible and
proper under the issues of undue influence
and mental incapacity, especially under
the latter showing the condition of the
mind of deceased.
Almost the entire day was devoted to
arguing the point, it being the first time
the Holt case has been submitted for inter
probation as an authority to the local
courts, so 1t is said. Justice Barnard late
this afternoon, when the session was
ended announced that he would take the
matter under advisement. Charles H.
Utermshle thereuDon resumed the witness
stand to testify along a different line.

HARDER TREES NEEDED.
A Lesson Taught by the Damage Done
Here in the Recent Storm.

From the New York Sun.
Some of those who love the public squares
of New York visited them after the recent
sleet storm to note the damage done to the
trees. 1t is years since the trees in the
small parks have suffered so severely by
storm, though everybody who has inteli-
gently studied the public square. knew that
sooner or later the trees by reason of their
condition would suffer some such mshap.
Those who watch the breathing places of
the city have long been uneasy because Of
the sickly condition of some of the trees.
and the natural tenderness of others. An
observer of these things points out that
many of the trees in the small parks are
of quick growing varieties, originally plant
ed In order that shade might be soon pro
vided. The trees thus planted served the
immediate needs of a community In q
hurry, but nobody took the trouble to plant
harder and tougher siow-growing trees
to take the place of those originally planted
when the latter should by reason of age,
disease or increased size be exposed to spe-
cial damage by storm.
The result is that the smaller parks are
filled with trees already damaged and dis
figured and every year more liable to dam
age and disfigure ment. The favorite trees
with the early planters of the public
squares were silver poplars. sycamores and
quicksgrowing naples Stuyvesant Square
has great many enormous silver poplars
Trees of this variety are growing also in
Washington Square. Madison Square, Union
Square and Bryant Park. Some Of these
parks are old enough to have grown fine
oaks. beeches and ashes but scarcely one
Of the smaller parks has such trees.
A lover of the parks who visited them
after the recent storm found that the quick
growing trees had especially suffered. The
giant poplars Of Stuyyesant Square had lost
many great limbs, and the poplars of
Washington Square. already marred by the
effects of earlier storms, had suffered In
he foS <hn old cal
mores in the smaller parks had lost many
limbs. Some Of them were already reduced
to little more than bare trunks. The same
thing had occurred In Union Square. Madi-
son Square and Bryant Park. The naples,
especially subject to the weakening attacks
Of the borer, had In some instances lost
large limbs and suffere. disagreement. 1t
was noticeable that even the larger elms
had suffered less seriously than the poplars
and naples.
It has been pointed out that one reasoi.

BOOKER WASHINGTON ON CORN.
Industrial Education is What Colored
Race Needs.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer


AT a recent meeting in New York Booker
I. Washington said that the great problem
confronting the negro was to give him that
education which would enable him to grow
fifty bushels of corn to the acre instead of
twenty-five. This restatement in different
form of very old proposition is neyerthe-
less valuable.
1t is not exactly up to the ideals of the
leaders of the negro thirty-six years ago,
when the government was to give every
one forty acres and n mule and when a
college education was expected to turn out
prodigies of intellect. That period has hap
PLY passed away, and the best friends Of
the negro. white and black. see that his
future lies along industrial lines
As so much has been made in certain
quarters of the fact that Mr.. Washington
was entertained at dinner by President
Roosevelt. it is interesting to note that the
cause of all the anathemas breathed out at
the time has not changed his position. He
holds that there can be progress in the
south unless the negro problem is consid-
cred In connection with the attitude toward
1t by the white man. 1t is fact that seems
to have been lost sight of lately that the
1nSkegee institute and its principal have
no warmer supporters anywhere than
among the whites of the south. We can
Well believe that the alleged storm of in
dignation that swept over the south must
have been exaggerated when we find that
he is socially received by the best white
blood of the south. not perhaps, at the
dinner table but under circumstances
which show mutual respect on both sides.
The Washington idea is to help the negro
to work out his own salvation. He has
succeeded beyond his expectations and his
work is only begun His idea is that the
best blacksmith in the neighborhood will
get the most custom in spite of his color.
that the best crops Will be raised where
there Is the most intelligent agriculture
tnat the man who never goes in debt and
iS hpfta
OF than the one who spends his time and
money seeking political office.
All of which Is very true. 1t Is a. app,ica BILE
to the white and the yellow man as to the
black. In so far the negro works out his
1tture on these lines he Will succeed and If
the white people Of the south do not follow
the same methods there will be an entirely
new problem one of these days Mr.. WASH
1Egton says the negro should be proud of
his race and make the most of his sopp0r-
tunities instead Of yainly wishing that his
lot had been different. This is good phil
osophy and good common sense.
