 Cases for the Reform SchOO1-WOOd-
 man Spares Trees--City Court Cases.
 In the probate court yesterday morn ing a hearing was called for the pur- pose of determining the heirs-at-Iaw in case the will figuring in the estate of George A. Isbell is sustained.
 The whole story in a nutshell is that the lawyers interested have never been able to determine just how much the estate is worth. One day it is stated that the property bequeathed amounts to something in the neighborhood of $10O,000, Tn next day rumor crops out that tho estates mentioned in the will are all of them mortgaged up to the handle.
 The big iron safe in the office of George A. Isbell in the Malley building was opened Tuesday before the eyes of half dozen lawyers and others in the hope that perhaps a new will might be found or other paper shaving that such a document had been drawn up. The search revealed nothing of value, and the papers found had no bearing on the case in question.
 Before Judge Cleaveland yesterday Attorney Jason P. Thomson appeared for Mary c. Futile to determine her legal standing to certain rights of the Isbell estate. Her case will be heard on June 26.
 The court decided that a hearing should be given F. w. Watterson, one of the three witnesses of the signing of the will, the date being set for July 16. MT. Watterson is at present living in the west and he expects to be in New Haven on July 15. His testimony will, it is thought, be valuable to finish prov ing the will
 Constable William O'Brien, who has been working on the estate since April l last, stated that his fees up to date amounted to $1,255. This sum, he fur ther claims, is very reasonable for the amount of time expended in looking ur the different land titles and estates in Connecticut.
 Several of the lawyers, when told the amount of Constable O'Briens bill were somewhat staggered, believing that the estate will not be able to pay O'Brien's claims after a final adjust ment.

Death in Violent Mania of a Brilliant
 Girl Graduate.

Owatonna, Minn, June 23.-Fol- lowing the death yesterday from vio- lent insanity of Miss Laura Kelly, brilliantly graduated last week, comes the announcement that there are in the insane asylums of the state thir- ty-three pupils and teachers, victims of overstudy.
 The pathetic breakdown of Miss Kelly, a handsome, intellectual girl of IS, coupled with the revelation concerning the results of undue ap- plication in pursuit of learning, will, it is believed, cause radical reyolu- tion in the study courses of the schools and colleges, = Miss Kelly was one of the com- mencement speakers, and was re- garded by the faculty of Pittsburg academy as the most brilliant stu dent the institution had ever given a certificate of graduation. She was deeply serious in her work, and final ly became depressed. declaring to a friend some weeks ago that she felt sure she would go insane and live only short time.
 A few hours after she had made her commencement address she was seized with violent mania, remaining in that state until her death. Con- menting upon the causes leading to her death, one of her instructors said tonight:
 While Miss Kelly was bright student in every sense-studious. in- telligent and q brilliant conversation alist-I believe that the course of studies she followed was too excit- ing. It seems to me that the colleges are cramming too much into their stu dents. Some students discard those studies which are not compatible with them. while others try to master all of them. Miss Kelly was of the latter class. Her brain gave way under the strain. as many another has done.
 There Is something wrong with our study course. Pupils should not at tempt to master all the branches of study and the faculty should restrict tlpmn

 the Couple
TAYLOR WAS IN MANY ROLES

Lawyers in the practice of their profession play many parts, but At torney T. F. Carmody has the drop on them all in this town. It fell to his lot to obtain a divorce for wo- man for whom he was "best man" :" When MT Carmody first hung out his shingle he was associated with Attor- ney F. M. Peasley, now deputy judge of the district court. One day there entered their offices a young fellow and a girl who said they wished to be married and they preferred to have the civil ceremony performed by justice of the peace. The couple were Mabel Anne Roberts and Will liam Taylor. It was the first time either of the young lawyers was called upon to perform the marriage ceremony and they wished to make it as elaborate as possible.
 Attorney Peasley stood up behind his desk with his stenographer, Miss Alice Rodier, now Mrs Minor, and Attorney Carmody standing on each side of the couple to be married. The knot was tied In jiffy and bride and groom went their way.
 Yesterday in the superior court Attorney Carmody obtained di- vorce for Mrs Taylor, whose husband is now an officer of the Salvation Army in New Haven. Taylor has played many role since that after noon he was married to Mabel Anne Roberts. He has been shop hand, news dealer, stationer, rural letter carrier, railroad hand, railroad sta tion agent, and now he is a Saliva tionist.

MAN RETURNS HOME
Finding His Wife Manied to His brolh- CT, He Goes Away Without
 Seeing HoI.
WAS AWAY SEEKING FORTUNE

Lynn, Mass, June 23.-Davld Hol- lis, who was supposed to have been drowned nineteen years ago, secret ago, but finding his former wife had ly returned to this city few days married his brother, Benjamin c. Hollis, fifteen years ago, he left the city again and his whereabouts Is still unknown.
 In 1874 Mir and Mrs David Hollis were married. they lived together fif- teen years, then Mir Hollis began running sand schooner from Plum Island to Lynn.
 At one time after the schooner had left Plum Island. news was received here that the vessel was lost at sea and that Mir Hollis had been drown ed. He was survived by three child ren, two boys and a girl.
 After four years Mrs Hollis, being in poor circumstances and supposing her husband dead, as she had receiv- ed his life insurance money, married Benjamin Hollis, by whom she had two children.
 It has now been learned from good authority that David Hollis was in this city recently, and, making nll- merous inquiries. he learned that his wife was married.
 His disappointment was so great that he left without meeting any of his near relatives.
 A peculiar thing about the matter is the fact that his daughter, Mary Hollis. has many times in conyersa, tion referred to her confidence that her father would some day return alive and well.
 Where Hollis has been all these years no one here knows. It Is now supposed that he never sailed from Plum Island on the fatal trip of his schooner. but through some fortunate occurrence had remained over one trip.
 It is supposed by some of the rela' lives that Hollis has been away seek. ing his fortune. and having attained if. returned to procure his wife and children, but when he learned his wife was married he returned to his unknown abode to spend the. rest oi his life.

Blood Stained Hammer Found in the Room of Victims Mother and Woman Will Have to Explain
HAMMER STRUCK BLOWS.
That Seems to Be General Opinion -Priest Denies Mrs. Seppo's
 Story That She Told Him.

New York, June 23.-The discov- cry in Mrs Louise Stenton's bedroom of weapon with which, the police nbw say, Mrs Alice Kinnan was kill ed, and the prospect that the aged mother of the murdered woman will be called upon by the police authori- ties to explain away this serious im- plication, are the newest develop ments of the investigation into the mysterious Bronx murder.
 The authorities in general. and Coroner's Physician Thomas H. Cur tin in particular, declare their firm belief that Mrs Kinnan was killed by blows from the bloody hammer found in the mothers room.
 "The woman was killed by blows front blunt weapon which, judging from the nature of the wounds, must have had a long handle" pr Curtin said to-day. "The hammer is such one as plumbers use. with the back of the head fashioned into a point instead of into claws. This hammer has d handle sixteen inches long. and with long swing which one could make with the weapon such wounds as were found on the skull could have been inflicted.
 When the secret inquiry into the murder by Coroner Mcdonald was re- stunned yesterday morning the first witnesses called were Miss Loretta Ryan. whose information is sdid to be of little value. and Thomas Me- Mahon, who was one of the two men to rush to the assistance Of Mrs Kim nan soon after she had been attacked. Aside from saying that he was i'm. pressed by the singular coolnoss or Mrs Stenton as she looked at the bleeding body of her daughter. Mc- Mahon retold the story he has related repeatedly
 The statement of Mrs Maria seppo that she told priest the dying words Of Mrs Kinnan were "a devil lawyer did It" was discredited to-day by Rev Father Cunnion of the Church of Our Lady of Mercy, who told Cor oner McDonald that Mrs Seppo made no such statement to him. but re- ouested him to bless a picture or st Anthony of Padua.
