SUE FOR INSURANCE MONEY.
Heirs Of Or. ]. B. Matthews Enter Suit
isis. For $4,000.

Suit has been instituted against
the Endowment Rank Knights of
Pythias on account of the insur-
ance policy carried in that COM
pany by the late DIR. j. B. Mat
ews, whose horrible crime of wife
murder in Greensboro, his sub
sequent trial, conviction and then
his suicide when the decision of
the lower court was confirmed
by the supreme court, made the
case one of the most famous in
the history of the State. He car
ried a policy for $1,000 in this
company and payment has been
refused on account of the fact,
as alleged, that DR.. Matthews
wassa dope fiend.
The first business to come be-
fore sIthe superior court this
morning was R. c. Strudwick, of
Greensboro, who represents the
Pythian insurance department,
made a motion to quash the SER
vice already secured in this case.
He asked for the quashing of
this service on the ground that
there is no such organization as
the Endowment Rank Knights OF
Pythias, but that the suit should
have been instituted against the
Supreme Lodge Knights OF
Pythias, he claiming that the En-
dowment Rank was only an agen
of the Supreme Lodge and tina
there was no such person. eitheI
real or fictitious, as the Endow
ment Rank Knights of Pythias
The motion was resisted b!
/ Mr.. w. B. Guthrie, of the firm
of Guthrie & Guthrie, who rep
resent the heirs of the late DR.

Judge Justice refused the mo
ton. holding that the face of tn
o9licy shows that the Endowment

This action is brought by tn

late DR.. Matthews. The polio
was made payable to Mrs. Zol

 Judge Weaver upholds the contention in the demurrers that the law anent betting on the results of an election does not apply to primaries. + will be re- called that considerable comment was made last fall on the open wagers made on the primary.

 Demurrers of the same sort were filed today when five cases were called and they. too. were sustained Under Judge weaver's ruling it Is unlawful to bet on an election, but ;here Is no law against betting on a prim' y.
