 She Does Not Pay AImOny For Him, He TesifieS

Yesterday afternoon in the Town hall at Fairfield, the hearing in the case of Mrs. Julia Watts Morris Cur tis, who is petitioning for a release from her conservators was resum ed before Judge B. P. Nobbs. Those present included her attorney, Stiles Judson, the conservators, Messrs. John c. Shaw and Elmer s. Banks, their attorney, Daniel Davenport and Dr. G. A. Lawrence of 675 Madison avenue, New York. The sitting speedily resolved itself into an ex- animation of Dr. Lawrence. who is Mrs. Curtis physician and the blond doctor underwent the most gruelling and discomfiting period he has yet experienced since the appeal began several weeks ago. Previous to what pr. Lawrence termed an 1mpertl- nent inquisition'' some interesting statements were made by Lawyer Shaw calculated to show the prolific hand of his ward when it came to deft Of Mrs. Curtis New York creditors, he said, there are one hum dred and sixty-one who have filed their claims against her besides; fifty here who have done likewise. He ex- plained that fifty per cent. of the amount involved in these claims could be Nnlet with the $27.0oo now ent real estate holdings and mort gages belonging to Mrs. Curtis. A separate bill of $17,0OO owing the Savoy Hotel in Manhattan where the petitioner is now staying is the re- suit of an eleven months stay there. MT. Shaw ended by asking the court to allow with himself and MT. Banks $5,000 cash for their. services. At torney Davenport opened fire on pr. Lawrence after these prelirninaries in a way that startled and ruffIed the latter beyond measure. After refer ring to cerIain trips ffzA5s d. Ato3s~ had her medical adviser, MT. Davenp ort asked.

Atherholt, the Philadelphia aeronautS who manned the t'PennsyIvania II' in the balloon today battered and bruised a result of the wreck of their aircraft in a terrific storm at Dexter. Ohio. Sunday. Both narrowly escaped with their lives, being caught 24,000 feet in the air with only three bags of ballast. They descended with such terrific force that their balloon rebounded a hundred feet from the ground, carry ing with it the occupants entangled in the rope-work of the basket.
 The Pennsylvania II with the other entries in the race, kept well together until the storm hit them about 10 o'clock Saturday night.

The races at the Delta County

by the many who have been attend
ing. All say they are as good as
can be seen on almost any track;
that they are, in fact, the biggest
part of the fair. Many good horses
have been on the track and some
fast records made. Charley Worth
gave a fine exhibition Wednesday.
The lodge relay races are also
one of the racing features. The Odd
Fellows of Delta won over Cedar
edge Wednesday and the winning
team raced the Delta X. of P's, but
up to going to press we were unable
to get the result.
