owner is doing business with some in
dividual on the inside, the horse if
allowed to stand on the shady side Of
the street. will walk to the other side
to get in the warm rays Of the sun.

engagement to Douglas Fairbanks, the
actor. and Mr.. Sully assented TO the
arrangement, providing Mr.. Fairbanks
gave up the stage.
Mr.. Sully has planned grand we'd
ding and a reception. All the So

which means that the exclusive cottage
colony will be well represented, while
there will be many guests from this

social entertainment Their quickly ma
tured love affair was brought to the no
tice OF Mr.. Sully. who protested. fumed
and said there should be no wedding

man. He found that Fairbanks was OF an
excellent Denver family and that after
graduating from the Colorado School OF
Mines he had lost little fortune in Wall
street and had gone on the stage to earn
a living.
The dining room Is to be decorated with
corn flowers and bachelor buttons. the
table decorations being shoe and slippers
of mosses filled with corn flowers. The
bride will wear a white satin empire

She will wear a real lace veil and will
carry bridal daisies, with a shower spray

THE bin OF complainant alleged that the

health.
Many unpleasant things are related ofthe
place conducted by Wagner and Scwartz.
They were also charged with unlawfully

NOT DISMISSED
BY THE COURT

In the superior court today Presiding
Justice Sweetland in the case OF John W.
Harber. p. a.. ct al. VS.. Herbert B.

dismiss the appeal. Presiding Justice
Sweetland says in his rescript: 1.-THE ap-
pointment OF Mr.. Hanley by the probate
court of Johnston as guardian ad litem OF
John w. and Margaret l.. Harber. mi
nors, was for the purpose OF protecting
the interests of said minors In proceed
ings before said probate court. where
they were in sense respondents it
would be a disregard of the interests of
said minors TO hold that their right OF
appeal from the action of said probate
court depend upon the will of an officer
OF that court so appointed.
From his position as guardian ad litem
Mr.. Hanley might act as next friend of
said minors in appellate proceedings. His
failure to SO act would not deprive said
minors of their right OF appeal as per-
sons aggrieved by the action Of said pro-
bate court. The motion of the executor
that the appeal be dismissed on the
ground that Mr.. Hanley is the only per-
son who can be recognized as represent
ing said minors by this court, is denied.
Neither can the court permit the APP
peal to be dismissed because Mr.. Phillips.
who acted as next friend OF said minors.
in taking said appeal, now states that In
his opinion said appeal should be prose-
cuted no further From an examination
of the papers. the court is OF the opinion
that some competent and disinterested
person should be appointed as next friend
OF said minors by this court, TO guard the
interests OF said minors In said appeal
Upon the recommendation of such an Of
ficer, the court would consider the ques-
ton OF the discontinuance OF said appeal.
