BRYAN LOSES IN THE
BENNETT WILL CASE
Court Rules Out the "SeaIed Letter.
and Bryan Will Appeal

NEW HAVEN, Conn, March S1.-A
decision rejecting as evidence the
sealed letter" by which William J.
Bryan was to be given $4,000 from the
estate Of the late P. S. Bennett, was
given today by Judge eager in the su-
per1or court, when the hearing on Mr..
Bryan's appeal from the decision of the
probate court declining to admit the
sealed letter to probate was resum-
ed. Judge eager said the letter was
disposttive iR character and therefore
came within the statute governing
wills, which demands that every paper
that is codicil or testamentary must be
attested by three witnesses. He holds
that the admission of the sealed letter
would override that statute. The court
said there was nothing descriptive in
the will except this phrase THE sealed
letter which will be found with my will"
Therefore there is nothing whatever to
identify the sealed letter as that re-
ferred to in section II of the will, no
ear-mark to show that this was the
letter the testator had in mind when he
prepared the will.
Judge eager ordered the Bennett APP
peal stricken off the trial list The
jury, under instructions from the court,
gave a verdict excluding the sealed
letter" and the typewriter copy of the
same as evidence as part of the will.
The court then adjourned. An appeal
to the supreme court will be made.

HOUSEHOLD TALKS.

That a man may be known by his
friends is truiSm.. and the advice no
doubt holds equally good with regard
to women; but there is much easier
way of arriving at woman's charac-
ter. Her friends may not be in evil
dence and might not show their real
character if they were, but her house
proelaims the personality of It's mis-
treSs to all who have eyes to see. From
the kitchen to the drawing room it
bears the impress of her character. 1t
shows whether she is a gentlewoman
or the reverse, whether she is intel
lectual or frivolous and perhaps, most
of all, whether she is simple and sin
cere or insincere and ostentatious-peo

ton a chair is a chair and a table
table, like the immortal primrose on

enough sitting accommodations in a
room, with sufficient tables to hold the
odds and ends which obviously cannot
stand upon the floor, they consider
they have done everything that can be
done in the matter of furniture, though
the more expensive the thing is the
more value they set on it. People who
fill their lives with trivial pleasures
and trivial business fill their houses
with corresponding trivialities, and

bV William Chambers.
The side walks are matted about
three or four feet upward from the
pavement, the rest being covered with
white, crimson or gilt paper. Instead
of pictures, they hang on the walls
long pieces Of satin or paper stretched
on frames and painted in imitation of
marble or bamboo on which are writ
ten moral sentences or problems. The
movableS in the room consist of chairs.
stools and tables, made sometimes of
rosewood, ebony or lacQuered work.
and sometimes of bamboo only, which
is cheap, but very neat. When the NOV
ables are of wood, the seats of the
stools are often Of marble or porcelain,
which, though hard to sit on, are far
from unpleasant in a climate where
the summer heats are so excessive. In
the corners of the room are stands four
or five feet high, on which are plates of
citron and other fragrant fruits, or
branches of coral in vases of porcelain,
and glass globes containing goldfish.

would prepare it if 1 needed it, but
it was made ready and then offered as
soon as / arrived.

Slope" Peer Gynt," the subject of
her lecture, represents the genius of
Norway in its search for the higher
good, and incidentally our common
human nature, in It's adventures on the
same quest. Few of Ibsen's much-dis-
cussed writings have given rise to more
comment than this one. In it all the
authors unrivaied painting Of human
frailty is shown, while the singing of
comic elements saves the picture
from the unrelieved gloom Of some Of
the later works of his genius. The
lecture will be Illustrated by the play

Jilson and Miss Appleton. The music

Automobile clothes have been a con-
SpicuOuS feature of all the spring open
ings, and although there are numerous
models, there does not seem to be any
great novelty or decided improvement
in these garments.
One of the most practical coats and
hats seen is illustrated by the middle
figure of the accompanying drawing
The coat is of black, shiny leather, as
pliable as cloth, and is made on the
lines of short box coat. with small
bell sleeves and breast and hip pOck-
cts. These pockets are set in diagon-
ally and the openings are finished by
pointed straps with leather buttons at
either end. Similar straps are on the
sleeves and are so arranged that they
may be loOSened at one end and then
passed around the wrist and rebutton-
ed, thus combining the sleeve to the arm
when desired. It is lined throughout
with gray satin.
The hat is a low crowned straw sail
or with a rolling brim and the veil is
of light blue chiffon covered with
black net veil with a very open mesh
and large chenille dots. This is gath
cred around the crown Of the hat and
at the lower edges there is hem
through which a wide, soft light blue
taffeta ribbon is run, and when worn
this ribbon is drawn in and tied in
front in a bow with long ends.
