ARGUMENT IN CHANCERV
Heard Before Chancellor Nicholson on
Distribution of Life Insurance
Policies.

Colonel Benjamin Nields, James H..
Honecker, Jr., and Albert E. Peterson,
of the Philadelphia bar, representing
the various parties interested in the
case of the Security Trust Company,
Trustee, vs.. Wright, ct al, in Cham
Gerry, argued the case before Chancel-
lor Nicholson on Saturday last at Do
yer.
one interesting question involved,
which had never before been raised in
the courts of this State, is whether the
legatees of a beneficiary under a life
insurance policy are entitled to the
proceeds of such policy or whether
such proceeds should be paid to the es-
tate of the insured in a case where
the beneficiary dies first.
This case grows out Of the distriou-
ton of the proceeds of two life insdr-
ance policies of $4,000 each on the life
of the late John Pilling, of Newark,
Del.

HENRY c. MORSE.

While no longer resident OF this
city at the time Of his death, yet Will
mington people had not ceased to re-
gard Henry G. Morse as one Of their
number. Death came TO this energetic
man in the way that he probably would
have wished. mot after a lingering ILL
ness with enforced idleness, but at a
moment when his mind was active and
all his energies alive. Thus TO the
end his industry and genius were en-
ployed. During the years that he spent
in Wilmington his energy did more
than that of almost any other man for
our industrial progress.
He was a master of the details Of
his business. and had rare abilities as
an organizer. Capital came at his
command, because he made it active
and insured its earnings. When he
left wilmington there was an impress
sion that we had suffered a great loss,
and we had. We watched the building
OF his great concern on the Delaware
with pride, and we expected to see II
in a few years the greatest ship-build-
ing plant this side OF the water. Bu
his work is done. His brain conceived
enterprises which kept labor employ
ed at remunerative wages, and re
turned to investors a proper income
The value OF such men in a commu
nifty is hard to realize.

From the Philadelphia Telegraph.
A sensation has been created I'm
Texas by the hanging of one of the
most prominent" citizens of that
state for the murder of another equally
prominent" Texan. Some thousands
Of people were so shocked at the bare
proposal TO let the law take its course
In this case that they formally petit
toned the Governor to commute the
sentence to life imprisonment The
wife OF the condemned man, on bend
ed knee and with fearful eye, also be-
sought the Governor for clemency; but
when a letter was received from the
widow of the murdered man demand
ing that the sentence be executed, his
exeellency's last doubt was removed
and the prominent citizen was duly
hanged by the neck until he was dead
The execution of the extreme penalty
in a case of this character in Texas
marks a distinct advance I'm the socia

AppIcKs. rAE REPuRLIcAN.

John Edward Addicks poses as
Republican. Here is his record;
In 1890 the Republicans nominated
Harry A. Richardson for Governor and
Henry A. Cannon for Congress. Ad-
dicks by contributing to the Demo-
cratic campaign fund defeated these
men and made Bob" Reynolds Cover
nor.
In 1895, by holding four votes to
himself he defeated the election of a
Republican to the United States SEN
ate. and the place was subsequently
filled by r. R. kenney, Democrat.
In August of 1895, he sent Senator
washburn his celebrated telegram
which said that IL he was not elected
senator he "would sink the Republican
party ten thousand fathoms Deep"
In 1896 he succeeded in electing
Tunnel as Governor and Handy to
Congress.
In 1899 he nominated ticket for the
Wilmington city election, polling just
enough votes to elect the whole Demo.
cratic ticket.
In 1902 he nominated Byrne for
Congress with the avowed purpose Of
eleeting Henry A. Houston, a Demo
erat. He succeeded.
In 1903 he refused common primaries
for the city Of Wilmington and then
went and congratulated the Democratic
candidate for Mayor on the certainty
Of his election.
This is Addicks' record as a Repub-
lican.

EDITORIAL OPINION
The Man of Force.

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
DR.. Smith. who preached the bac-
calaureate sermon at New York Uni
versity. very neatly expressed what is
undoubtedly a fact regarding educated
men. More men fail from want Of
force than from want of judgment"
he said, "and II would appear that edu-
cation often tends to reduce rather
than add to "a mans usefulness" The
educated man spares himself at cru
cial" moments" DR.. Smith continued,
and he has uttered a truth. knowledge
develops caution and an indisposition
to take risks. II also develops sensi-
bilities which are so finely attuned
that the possessor Of them goes a long
way round to avoid shock to those
sensibillties. wherefore he oftentmes
falls behind I'm a race for the prize of
life. If the advantages and pleasures
to be got out of existence are all OBJ
jective, DR.. Smith has made a point
against higher education. If there be
still some material achievement, the
argument has not been advanced, and
the question remains open for debate
at next years commencement season.
