TAXES DEAD MAN FOR COSTS.
WhereupoB Counsel Protest and the Court
Agrees with Them.

y In a case just decided by the Appellate
Division, entitled In the matter Of the
judicial settlement Of the accounts OF
James A. Dryer, as administrator Of the
estate of Patrick Sheedy. deceased" the
appellants lost. The order to this effect.
signed by the presiding Justice, Morgan
j, O'Brien, ordered that the costs Of the
appeal be taxed against he accounting
administrator, James A. Dwyer.
It so happens that Mr.. Dwyer has been
dead some time. He died, in fact. before
the appeal was taken, and the company
that had gone on his bond as administrator
had stepped into his shoes. Michael j.
Clifford was substituted as administrator
when Dwyer died.
Clifford's counsel, House, Grossman d
vorhaus, noticed the error that had crept
into the order and applied for a resettle-
ment, submitting this memorandum;
1t is shown by the record that at the time
when the final decree was made the account
ing administrator was dead. II. then. he
took an appeal from such a decree 1t must
have been to O tribunal from which no de-
cisions nave been handed down In recent
years that We know Of.
While Section 1850 Of the Code OF Civil
Procedure makes the award OF costs herein
discretionary, that discretion cannot be ex-
ercised even against a dead man who Is not
an appellant.
The presumption that the accounting adj
ministrator Is still dead has not been re-
butted and there might be some difficulty
In enforcing payment Of the costs awarded.
Not alone would the Sheriff object to the
execution Of a writ which required him to
| collect from the defunct administrator per-
sonally. but collection might be impossible.
| from the fact that at the administrators
present abode paper money Ia probably not
current, and even coin. II existent. would
naturally be In o state unsafe for promis-
cuous handling.
Under all the circumstances the respondent
(Cliford) prefers a bill Of costs against the
lncorporeal body. the United States Fidelity
and Casualty Company. which is the principal
appellant. rather than the bodlless spirit
designated In the order, and applies for an
amendment accordingly,
Ailof which is respectfully submitted.
The new order was signed.

NAV s,rc,,,r., story. The T,sons.,

Discriminating readers with critical taste
and cultivated appreciation will read May
Sinclair = account Of The Tysons' not so
much for what Is In the story as for the way
II Ia put in and the choice English en-
ployed In the telling. The book was written
and pulls he'd in England before The
Divine Fire" focused the attention OF the
literary world upon the quiet little English
woman who sees with the eye OF tho artist
and tells what she sees with the swift, sure
skill of the master
The story Ia in no sense 80 notable or
important a piece Of fiction az "The Divine
Fire" nor does 1t attempt to be. Simplicity
and subtlety are the characteristics OF Its
excellence. 1t Is a bit of miniature paint
ing reproducing an English country neigh
borhood with fine and delicate skill, against
which only two characters Of importance
are portrayed. But they are analysed
with a kindness of insight and reproduced
with a dizziness of craftsmanship that CON-
pensates the choice Of certain conventional
subterfuges in the working out Of the
simple plot to its tragic conclusion.
Mr.. Nevill Tyson, Miss Bachelor used to
declare, was a self-made man because he
was constructed on such eccentric princi-
ples"-and Miss Batohelor knew, for she
was the "frightfully clever spinster who
projected and controlled public opinion in
the neighborhood where the Tysons lived.
A brute by instinct, a cad by nature, q u
try gentleman by accident Of inheritance
with a veneer Of Oxford training and army
experience, Mr.. Nevfl Tyson furnishes the
bundle of paradoxes which Miss Sinclair
best enjoys studying. Mrs. Nevill Tyson
was a ~distraotingly pretty plaything, with
out any education TO bother, who reused
the passion of Mr.. Tyson agreeably II not
permanently. All might have been well II
Mrs. Tyson had not inadvertently, under
the experiences Of wifehood and mother
hood, developed a soul. Mr.. Tyson wasn't
prepared for that, nor for her losing her
beauty from fire while saving his life.
The fire scene is bad. conventional and un-
necessary. The "other fellow is a stalking
horse and never does that way in real life.
The book IL morbid and pessimistic and
has one bit Of very unpleasant if impressive
realism concerning the birth Of Mr.. Tysou's
heir, which will and should narrow the circle
Of readers TO the fastidious few who will
condone some faults in admiration for much
excellence. The American edition Ia pub
lished by B. W. Dodge and Co.

Luther Longs "The way OF the Gods"

REPUBLICAN sTAeNATIoN.

nAnnaI FniIurea.


The great majority of the Republican
party used to worship James G. Blaine
and the policies that he stood for. lie
favored reciprocity, especially with
South American countries, and in a
speech at Waterville, Me-. Aug. %
1880, he said:
"Our great need is expansion.
mean expansion of trade with coun
tries where we can find profitable ex
changes. We are not seeking annexa
don OF territory. Certainly we do moi
desire II unless 1t should come by the
vOlition OF people who might ask the
priceless boon of place under the flag
Of the Union. / feel SURE, that for a
long time to come the Reople of the
United States will be NfseIy content
with our present area and not launch
upon any scheme Of annexation. At
the same time / think we should be
unwisely content If we did not seek t.
engage in what the younger Pitt so
well termed annexation of trade"
The Republican leaders TODAY are
distinctly opposed to just what Mr.
Blaine was striyius for. lie little
thought that within a few years Re
publican president would be forcibly
Rnncxing countries not in this hemj
sphere and Republican congress
would be standing pat and refusing t.
ratify reciprocity treaties that McKin
leg had arranged.

few followers Of Abe Lincoln that ars
left, view with dlsmay the dismal fail.

A DARING ROBBERY COM
MITTED SATURDAY NIGHT
Mrs. HotChkiss is ChOked to InsensibiIty
and Her Store Robbed By Two Negroes
No Glue Yet Obtained as to the
Identity of the Robbers.

One of the boldest robberies was
committed here at an early hour last
Saturday night that ever startled
this community. Mrs. HotchkiSS,
| manager of the HOtchkiSS Millinery
Company, was choked to inSenSibility
and her store robbed by one negIO
while another stood guard at the door,
at about seven O'Clock This store is
situated on the public square, right
in the heart of the business part OF
the town, and considering the hour
and everything, it was one OF the
most daring deeds that our police
force has had to deal with for many
years.
The other parties in the store had
gone to supper. When the cook en-
tered the store with supper for Mrs.
HotchkiSS she observed her lying pros
trate on the floor in the rear Of the
store, The cook took fright and ran
for help. In a few moments Mr..
HotchkiSS and several other gentle
meu arrived, and they soon ascertain
ed that Mrs. HotchkiSS was in a semi
conscious condition, and about the
first intelligent expression that they
received from her was negro" On
being resuScitated she stated there was
a couple of negro women in the store
and that about the time they took
their departure she observed two ne.
gro men in the store near the front
