LOVES DECISION
Il May Send the Apothecaries Hall Case 10 Superior Court

The litigation in the Apothecaries Hall company is now in a fair way way to reach the superior court, Judge Lowe. in the probate court, late Saturday having denied Mrs Ella s. Williams application to have the 409 shares of stock in the con- pany sold in a block. The distribu- tion of this block of 409 shares will give 1. P. Kellogg, the president of the company more than controlling interest in the concern, and it was to prevent distribution that Mrs Will Hams applied to have the stock sold. She claimed that to distribute it, as the original owner A. E. Rice, grand father of the present A. B. Rice de- cided in his will, would depreciate and injure the stock. The trustee of the property, Franklyn A. Taylor, testified at the last hearing that he had received from A. E. Rice and his mother, Mrs Helen Rice an offer of for the 409 shares and that the offer was open for 30 days Mrs Williams will undoubtedly take the matter to the superior court by ap- pealing from Judge Lowe's decision.

RAILROAD MERGER COMING.
Details of the Union of the Consoli-
 dated and N. H., N. H. & H.

The notice appears of the meeting lof shareholders of the New York,
 New Haven & Hartford railroad to act on the acceptance of the amend
 ment to its charter, commonly known
 as the merger bill recently passed by
 the legislature. and then to consider
 merging under it with the Consoii- dated Railway company has been :s- sued. The combined companies are to go under the old title of New York, New Haven & Hartford Rail-
 road company. but the new company will operate under the bylaws of the Consolidated and have the board of directors of the Consolidated The shares of each company will each become shares equally in the new company.
 An alternative suggestion of the call has it that the merger may be performed in such manner and upon such additional terms as may be set tied by the meeting. It is under stood that the Consolidated charter, while rather long, is even broader and its powers will go to the railroad under the merger. Presumably the board of directors of the Consolidated has been enlarged since the last list was published. At that time Will liam Rockefeller, J. P Morgan, H. Mex. Twomly, all of New York, c. F. Choate and N. Thayer of Boston were not members. Edward D. Robbins of this city is member of the board of the Consolidated and not of the steam road. Apparently he will go into the new board as the only new member.

WITHDRAWAL OF PATRONAGE

Arthur W. Shattuck, of the Auto mobile Company said st recent meet ing of the Milwaukee Automobile Trade Association that Milwaukee papers devoted column after column to automobile accidents in all parts of the country, giving the impression that motor cars are a menace to human life, while they tell ID about ten lines that Switchman was killed in railroad acci- dent.
 ''They give undue prominence to the automobile as danger to the public, and suppress reports of street railroad accidents" continued Mir. Shattuck. "I am suggesting that the newspapers be forced, by withdrawing automobile sdvert Using patronage, to give less prominence to automobile accidents than they have been giving of late and to place more stress on such events than tLey do on similar occurrences on trolley lines and railroads. ."-The Fourth Estate,

TIE SINs QF WOMEN

Truly in the death of Cassie Chad wick st Columbus Thursday night the oft declared fact that a woman who sins Is never forgiven finds complete vsria- cation. Cassie NJ. ChadwIck's entire peculasions did not reach over fifty thousand dollars, although sensational lsss tried to make her millionaire rogue. She was but 8 mediocre swim dlsr when ranged with the big gratters of today and yet she paid the debt of death as forfeit for her folly. Never from the time she was hsled Into court did she have the show that rich male thief would have been allowed, and when once the doors of the peniten- tlsry changed behind her she was de. serted by former friends, associates and relatives. Mrs. Chadwick swirdled only big graitsrs who in turn robbed others, and they should have been thor ouEhbreds enough 10 take their loses in the game as good losers are supposed to take theirs. But they were not, and when the woman could not pay the 'pound of flesh" they insisted on her incarceration. and Thursday death msrcifully ended it all. Verify, the chance that aD srrlpg woman has Is none.

EARTHQUAKES AND VOLCANOES
By Sol Ripinskyl

Editor Daily Skagway Alaskan:
 A volcano is an opening made in the osrth's crust by internal heat, which has forced melted or heated matter through the vent An earthquake is the effect of the confined gases and va DOTS, produced by the heat upon the crust, when the volcanoes, therefore, get vent, says Dr. Hitchcock. The earthquake most always ceases, but the latter has generally been more destruc- tive of life and property than the for mer.
 When one city has been destroyed by volcanic action, like Herculaneum, Pompeii, Stable and others, thirty have been shaken down by the rocking aud heaying of the earthquake. The records of ancient as we'll as modern times abound with examples of these tremendous catastrOphes, Pre-eminent on the list is the city of Antioch. Im- agius the inhabitants of the great city, crowded with strangers on a festival occasion, suddenly aroused on a calm day by the earth heaVing and rocking beneath their feet, and in few mo- ments 25O,OOO of them buried by falling houses or the earth opening and swal- lowing them.
 Just think of the terrible destruction that came upan Lisbon in l755. The sun had just dissipated the fog on 8 warm, calm morning, when suddenly the subterranean laundering and heav- log began, and in six minutes the city, was Q heap of ruins and 6O,OOO of the inhabitants were numbered among the  dead.

The overly generous gifts of a mechanic in Nashville, Tenn, to his church aroused the suspicious of detec- lives and led to the mans apprehension for the robbery of two packages of money from a car of the Southern Ex- press company, containing nearly ss,OOO.
