A recent opinion by Attorney Gen
eral Malone. OF Massachusetts, is OF in
terest to cities and towns that have
adopted the plan of oiling highways
TO. keep down the dust. Mr.. Malone
holds that there Is no liability on the
part OF the authorities for damages
resulting from the use of oil and tar
on roads. His reasoning is that there
lis no more ground for holding a town
or city responsible for injury to cloth
ing or vehicles by oil than there Is
for assessing damages when some
body Is spattered with mud.

Whether or not husband No. 8

the issue in a one-round bout
that took place here between
John O'Connor and James Will
liarns, two Sioux Indians. 1t
seems Mrs. O'Connor, now en-
joying her seventh husband,
had had Williams as husband
No. 8. And since O'Connor al
ready had five wives Williams
thought it inconsiderate of him
to break up his home. In the
alteration that ensued, O'Con-
nor seized a broom stick, for
want OF q tomahawk, and near
~ scalped his opponent. Will
liams was laid out for quite a

nor was fined $40 and costs by

the New York public is beginning to
sit up and take notice of the other
heiresses who will soon join the
great majority of American women

py bride next Saturday, unless Provi-
Idence grants further delay, when
she will acquire half-interest In the
title of the Due de Chaulnes. The
consideration is not stated. but there
is little doubt that the strap-hangers
who patronize Papa Shonts' little
traction system will have to pay the
freight.

The reason for the phenomenon is
that the ball is suspended In space

WIFE CONSERvATOR OF
RICH INVALIDS ESTATE
Court Adjudgcs Gilbert Younglove
Incompetent on the Complaint
of His Son-Worth
. 100000.

Boulder, Colo, Feb. fudge
Junius Henderson yesterday appoint-
ed Mrs. Gilbert Younglove conserva-
tor of her husbands estate, the jury
finding him incompetent. Young
love Is more than 10 years of age.
and is said to be worth 100000.
The action was brought against him
by his son, Charles Younglove, who,
it was charged by his stepmother.
wanted to get possession of the
estate.
The elder Younglove has been
married twice, and with his second
wife and their son Gilbert came to
Boulder a few months ago for the
fathers health. He has failed rapid
ly of late, and was not taken into the
courtroom, as his doctor stated that
any exertion might prove fatal. He
originally came from Georgia, where
he has a number of rich phosphate
mines.
The decision of the judge is be-
lieved to be satisfactory to all par
ties. and to prove the settlement of a
litigation between Charles Young
love on one side and the second wife
and her son on the other. The bond
of Mrs. Younglove was fixed at $25.-
900, and she will only get charge of
the property in this state. which con-
sists of $1,000 on deposit in the
National State bank of Boulder.
