jury Thursday afternoon in the
case of Micah Tilghman ct al. VS..
Catherine w. France, executrix,
brought in a verdict setting aside
the, will of the late Elizabeth G..

the ground that she was mentally
incapable of executing a valid
document.
The case was removed from
Baltimore county to Bel Air and ii
involved about $4,000. 1t had
been on trial for over two weeks.
The action of.the jury makes valid

MOST FAMOUS OF LIeHTs.
The Eddystone Beacon a Lonesome
and Dangerous Post-CostIy At
fair to Keep Up.

No lighthouse the world over has as
wide fame among mariners as that
which stands IA miles off the coast OF
Lands End, says the Chicago Chroni-
Gle. 1t is perhaps the most celebrated
in the world. 1t has often been used
as an illustration by poets and preach
ers, for no other lighthouse is in such
a lonesome or dangerous place and
none costs SO much money and trou-
BILE. There are three keepers who live
there with their families, and two of
them are always on duty, while the
third is on the main coast enjoying a
vacation. They relieve each other
each month, so that none of the keep
ers remain on duty more than two
months at a time. This change and
rest is said to be absolutely necessary
to preserve the nerves of the keepers
The lighthouse is 1876. feet high, was
erected in 1882 at cost of $500, 900,
and rises from a submerged rock. The
first lighthouse was erected on this
rock as long ago as 1897, but was
washed away six years after and was
not replaced for long time. The Sec
ond was burned down in ITS, the
third stood from 1857 to 1882 and was
famous in history.

SUICIDE - EASY.
Despondent Norwegian Took His own
Life by Simple Method of Refus-
Ing to Breathe.


That 1t is possible to commit suicide
by simply holding ones breath has
been clearly proved by a respondent
Norwegian, who recently killed him
self in this very unusual manner.
When he determined to die he closed
his mouth and nostrils and by mere
force of will prevented his lungs from
doing their proper work.
This case is the more remarkable,
says the New York Herald, as there
has long been popular notion that no
human being could by mere will power
stop the action of the lungs for more
than one or two minutes. For this rea.
son it has attracted much attention,
and a French writer, commenting on
II, says:
To persons of good taste who arc
weary Of life this method of commit
ting suicide will certainly commend it
salt, one reason being because the body
is not disfigured thereby, and another
BECAUSE the act can be committed in
anJ place and at any time. It is true
that sensitive or nervous persons will
never be able to kill themselves in this
manper, for, simple as it. seems, the
act If retaining ones breath until
death comes can only be performed
by ole who is either unusually phleg-
matiJ or endowed with a very strong
will

CRACKING A STEEL SAFE.
NitrogIycerin Does the Work without
Any Boring Whatever-W0nder-
fully Simple Operation.

"The work of cracking an old steel
safe has become very simple" said an
inspector of the post Office department
to a Washington Star reporter. you
see," he continued, ''all the burglar
has to do is to pour nitroglycerin in
the cracks of the safe, then throw
some combustible material over it, set
it afire and get out OF the way. In a
short time the explosion occurs and
the door drops out as readily as if it
were made of pasteboard.
This method of going into a safe is
known to all the craftsmen, and 1t
seldom occurs that we hear of a case
of burglarizing post Office in the
small towns that has not been accom-
plished in that manner. The old
method of boring into safe in order
to insert the explosive is no longer
heard of. l do not know how this
practice can be stopped unless greater
care is taken in watching the post Of
fees or modern safes are provided. 1t
is impracticable to equip all the post
offices with modern safes. SO that
think the simple methods of the bur-
glars will be used for long time to
come"
