The proverbial inability Of eminent
LAWYERS to frame their own wills so as
20 command the support of the courts
has been again illustrated by the In
validating Of the will Of the late Chief
Justice Paxon, OF the supreme court OF
Pennsylvania. He devised large por-
ton Of his landed property for the es-
tablishment of an agricultural school
for poor boys. Under the Pennsylvania
law wills containing charitable be-
quests must have the signature Of sub

Secret of CLAIMS Estate.

Edinburgh, Scotland, Sept. 22.--Lord
CLAIMS, heir of the Earl of Strsthmore,
a millionaire land owner, whose estates
comprise about $4,000 acres, became of
age today, and to him will be revealed
the secret regarding Glamis Castle in
Forfarshire, the ancestral home of Mac
beth, and one of the estates to which
the young man will some day succeed.
The mystery surrounding this castle has
existed for centuries. Its dark secret
has been kept so we'll that it has never
become known despite the various tales
that have gone abroad concerning the
castle. The secret is never known to
more than three persons. One OF these
is the reigning earl, the second is the
caretaker, or estate manager, and the
third is the earl's heir who is made ac-
quainted with the mystery when he at
tains his majority. The traditional
legend in regard to the mystery concerns
a secret chamber in the castle which, it
is said, is Inhabited by the spirit OF a
former Strathmore, who was struck down
dead by some supernatural power while
gambling on the Sabbath.

Killed in Coils ion.

A head-on collision between Phila-
delphia and Reading Railway pay train
and eastbound passenger train No. 10.
which was approaching Barnitz station,
six miles from Carlisle. Pa, resulted in
the loss OF six lives and twenty persons
Injured, among whom, it is feared, at
least two more will die. The wreck oc-
occurred on a sharp curve.
The trains crashed together shortly
after p. m. yesterday on a single
track-road, as result of alleged viola
ton of orders by the pay train, which
was in charge of George o. Sarvis, train
master. Sarvis lost both legs in the
wreck. The fireman and engineer OF
the pay train-Ephriam McCleary and
John Hill, respectively-were instantly
killed, as we're also Curtis Shearer, fire.
man of the eastbound train; the con-
ductor of the pay train, Manning; Ed
ward p. Laucks, assistant paymaster on
the pay train, and an unidentified pay
clerk, who died going to the hospital.
1t is stated by the Reading officials
that two more employees may be found
under the wreckage.
The passenger train consisted of one
passenger car and milk and combina-
ton mail and express car. The loco
motives were locked fast together. The
pay car, which was next TO the engine
of the other train, was almost destroyed.
Later adyices allege that an investiga-
ton has shown that Trainmaster Sarvis,
whose train was at Barnitz, tried to
make siding without orders.
Reading officials late yesterday eve
ming fear that the death list may reach
eight. McCleary was found on his en-
CINE with the whistle cord in his hard,
it having been pulled clear of the ma
chine, and all the brakes on the train set.
The pay car contained about $50, 900 in
checks, which were scattered about the
tracks.

Another Murder Mystery.

Boston, Sept. 22.-In simple suit case
the nude trunk of the body of young
girl with the head, arms, and legs neatly
severed, hoated on the food tide into the
anchorage of the fashionable Winthrop
Yacht club house on Shirley avenue, in
that town, last evening. There is abso-
lutely no clue to the identity Of the
woman and the police are confronted
with one of the bliDdest mysteries that
has been brought to police authorities
in this State in years. From the man
ner in which the work was done, it is
believed that the dismemberment OF the
body was performed by a surgeon.
There was evidence left by whoever had
the deicately nurtured body of the girl
in his control that a criminal operation
had been performed and also
evidence to the effect that an effort had
been made to do away with the testi-
mouy which would clearly show the
reason for what now appears to have
been a most brutal and cold-blOOded
crime. The abdomen had been opened
from the short rib to the pelvis, and the
stomach and intestnes had been remOv-
ed. but the vital organs remained-mute
but most convincing evidence of the
condition of the unfortunate girl. The
cut in the abdomen as removing the in
testines and the stomach had been sewn
UP. Aside from the fact that an opera
ton for appendicitis had been performed
within "a measurable length of time,
there is no important clews to the iden-
tity of the girl. From the appearance
of the suit case it IS believed that the
body had been in the water over "A
hours. Deep and gruesome as the mys-
terry is, there is reason TO believe that
the girl was not murdered in cold blood,
but that she died as the result OF an OPP
Grafton of a criminal nature, and that
the horrible mutilation of the body was
done in an effort to dispose of it and to
prevent tracing the perpetrators of the
crime through this means. 1t is sup
posed that the suit case was thrown
overheard from some steamer.
Deputy Chief Neal, of the State Po-
lice, believes that he has found clew
which will lead to an arrest. This
morning he heard of man who saw
another carrying a suit case which look
ed exactly like the one in which the
body was found.
Deputy Chief Neal said today that he
felt certain the Young woman died from
the after effects of criminal operation,
that he felt reasonably certain of the
place in which the operation was per-
formed, and that a clue has been found
as to the person who put the suit case in
the water.

Former State Senator James q. Nc
Cune. of Meadow Mills, Frederick
county, and Miss Mary A. Parker, the
beautiful young daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Charles F. Parker, who live near
Cedar Creek, Frederick county, eloped
to Hagerstown, Md, Wednesday even
ing and were married in the parlors Of
the Hotel Hamilton at 9 o'clock that
ght, Rev. A. B. Station, pastor of st.

Ing. The groom is forty years old,
while his bride is only sixteen. She is
noted for her beauty.
By profession Mr.. McCune is law
yer and formerly had Offices in Winches-
ter and Woodstock. He served one

nous "anti-kissing BILL" which, largely
through his efforts, became a law and
which forbds flirting with schoolgirls in
this State. At present Mr.. McCune is
schoolteacher in Frederick county.
Mr.. McCune and Miss Parker went to
Winchester Wednesday evening, reach
ing there shortly after 6 O'Clock. They
we're driven to the Cumberland Valley
Railroad station, where they made close
connection with the $3.50 train for Ha-
gerstown Arriving in the Maryland
city, they found the courthouse closed
for the day, but Clerk Oswald was pre-
vailed upon to issue the necessary license,
and the ceremony followed.
Dressed in their working clothes, the
two brothers of the bride, having learned
that the elopement was to take place,
boarded the train and accompanied the
couple. One of them is said to have OBJ
iected 10 the match, even, it is said,
going so far as 10 appeal to the police
of Hagerstown to prevent the wedding.
The other brother, it is reported, IA
vored the marriage and assisted Mr. Nc
Cune in the preparations and flight. The
parents of the young lady objected strong
" to her wedding on the ground of her
extreme youth, and, it is said, had for
hidden Mr.. McCune from calling at their
home. The couple will make their home
in Frederick county.
