 REMARKS.
 I say it like a cynic
 And a croaker,
 It isn't any joke to
 Be a joker.
 Just think, if you are feeling
 Like a quitter,
 How hard 1t is with jest to
 Raise a litter.
 I say it like a cynie
 And a croaher,
 It isn't any joke to
 Be a joker.

IN AND ABOUT THE COURTS
MR BOARDMAN'S RELATIVES
 YIN SUIT FOR $127,OOO

Trinity College and Mission AssOcin-
 tions Lose That Amount - Police
 Looking for WOman-New Trial
 for Boyce-City Court Cases.
 By the decision of the supreme court of errors, now sitting at Bridgeport, on the friendly suit brought by Burton Mansfield. executor of the will of the late Lucy H. Boardman to determine what proportion of the trust fund left by her late husband belonged to Mrs. Boardman's estate, Trinity college and the Domestic and Foreign Missions as- sociations, of the Episcopal church, each lose one-half of an increase of $127 900 on the fund.
 The purpose of the suit was to have the court decide whether Mrs. Board mans estate and subsequently Trinity college and the Mission association were entitled to this $127000, or wheth- CT 1t reverted to the heirs of the late William w. Boardman, her husband, with the original amount of the fund. By the courts decision the several nephews and nieces of MT. Boardman will now receive the additional amount.
 In the will of Mir. Boardman was a clause which created trust fund of 100000, and gave to Mrs. Boardman the rents, dividends and profits of the fund. During her life Mrs Boardman had all the ordinary income, but on her death it was found that the fund had increased from the original $200,000 to $327,00 This increase has been made by the increase in value of the | several securities included in the fund, the issuing of additional stocks of the corporations in which the fund was in- vested and other natural growths not bearing on the annual income from the | fund.
 Mrs Boardman claimed that the term rents, dividends and profits was broad enough to cover this Increase in value and directed her executors to go to court to have the question determin- ed, and to have 1t settled whether the term included the increase or did 1t mean only the income.
 Pursuant to these instructions, Mir. Mansfield assisted by Attorney James E. Wheeler, brought the suit to the superior court last November, and on a ruling by that tribunal took the mat ter to the supreme court, where 1t was argued last month. By the decision now handed down the supreme court I decides that the term meant only the income, and that Mrs. Boardmans es- tate has no claim to the increase of $127,O00 on the trust fund. The trust fund is now in charge of William J.. Boardman, who with Mrs Boardman were the trustees of the fund. Mir, Boardman since Mrs. Boardman's death is now sole trustee.
