MOTHER CAN'T
HAVE DEEDS To
SON SET ASIDE
Court Rules Mrs. Johnson Dis
posed of Property to Her
Own Best Interest.

That Mrs. Caroline NJ. Johnson, who
decided three pieces of property to her
only son, William F., of ~ Cottage
street, was not subject to undue infu-
ence, and, as a matter of fact, made the
best possible disposition of the proper
ties under the circumstances. was the
general ground on which vice-Chan-
cellor Stevens today decided that he
would not set the deeds aside.
Mrs. johnson, who Is nearly four
score years old, decided her prop
critics November Is, 1904, but she was
allowed a life interest, ample enough to
keep her from restitution. They have a
yearly income of from $500 to $500, and
We're amply sufficient to provide for the
remainder Of her life.
After Mrs. Johnson had made the
deeds through Julius Rupprecht. her
counsel. who inserted the provision for
a life interest, she repented of her
action and brought suit in the Court
of Chancery to set them aside.
Told PitifuI But Unsupported story.
She told a somewhat pitiful but un-
supported story of neglect, saying that
she received only Sc a week after she
left the house in Cottage street. The
two other properties involved are one
in Emmett street and the other in
Spruce street. The latter was recent
~ sold for S.. 1000 and there is a dispute
over a 3 1000 mortgage on It.
When the son was on the witness
stand he said that his mother was af-
ficted with the gambling spirit and
that the ~conveyances were made "to
protect her property, as she was maxi
ing unfortunate s~peculations.'
1t was decided by the court at the
same time that the mother was en-.
titled to an accounting on the part Of
the son.

Immediately after Schneider entered
a plea Mr.. McDermit went to West

Judge Davis set the bond at $4,000.
On June 4 Schneider, with a num-
Der of companions. went to Belleville to

tween Belleville and Newark, a fight

own story, pulled a penknife from his
pocket and cut the jugular vein in

RABBI H. BRODSKY,
Congregation Anshe Russia.

To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
The STARS Free Ice and Outing
is certainly an admirable charity.
1t is too bad that there should be
mothers and children unable to procure,
by their own means, these necessaries
of life in a great city. but the lament
able fact is there, confronting us, and
it is certainly something to be thank
full for that there should be an agency
willing to undertake the labor of meet
ing this need. 1t is a labor of too great
magnitude to be undertaken by any
church, and besides 1t Is better hat a
purely humanitarian work like this
should be wholly unsectarian. 1t de-
serve the support and encouragement
of all citizens, irrespective of denomi-
nation, and It Is pleasant to know that
it is receiving 1t. 1t am sure that pas
tors and social workers will welcome
the opportunity of providing in their
ways for the needy whom they meet
and know, through this channel. May
this fund receive generous and daily
augmentation, all through the hot
months.

With the rising of the mercury, the
STARS Free Ice and outing Fund has
risen perceptibly. and this mornings
mall brought $115, making a grand total
of 81, 205.5 up to date to be used for the
care of the little ones when the heat
becomes unbearable in this city n
death begins to reap its usual summer
harvest amor the infants of the poor.
While the money a flowed in free
ly, a generous current from the hearts
of those who can afford to give Is
hoped for, as the city has grown SO
since last years good work ended that
more is needed than ever before. Those
who give quickly give twice.
With the latest contributions came
mary letters from clergymen of all de-
nominations, heartily indorsing the OBJ
ject of the fund and wishing 1t the
same success that it had in former
years
Letters Received To-day.
Following are some of the letters:
To the Editor of the Evening star;
1 assure you I appreciate the inter-
est the STAR has taken in this pecu-
liar beneficent charity. Ice occupies a
peculiar place-just between a neces-
sary and a luxury. For that matter,
all the necessaries are luXuries when
they are hard to get. In this latitude
Ice in the summertime is almost as
necessary as fuel in the winter-time
Those of us who would not think Of
getting on without ice in the hot
weather can perhaps but poorly appre-
ciate the blessing it is to many who
have ceaseless struggles to get the com
forts of life. More delicious 1t must
cen to them than bouquets of flowers
or dainties for the table.
In the name of humanity, l congrat-
ulate 0 and thank you for the inter-
est you nave taken in this worthy
cause, and shall be glad to give you the
support you ask as occasion may arise.
Sincerely yours,
WILLIAM v. CHAPMAN,
Pastor Rpseyille Presbyterian Church.
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
In answer to your request to indorse
the beneficence of the STARS Free Ice
Fund, ] cheeTfully do so, for | am sure
1t is a most practical charity, bringing
comfort and health to numerous
mothers and their little ones. I wish
you the most complete cooperation of
the public in your charitable work.

Pastor Rpsevi11e Presbyterian Church.
j. T.. wHELAN,
Rector ST. Patrick's Cathedral.

To tn Editor OF the Evening Star;
Yours of the 18th duly received, and
In answer thereof 1 can write that the
good that the ice tickets and excursion
tickets bring about does not need re-
marking about-same as saying hat
the sun s~hines-but about how to reach
some that need the help. 1 am &C
painted with many persons who will
not take public charity or anything
that has publicity attached TO it, no
matter how great the need may be,
and who will only confide their secrets
to the minister, knowing 1t is confden-
tial. Therefore, it would be advisable
that not only should the STARS Free
Ice Fund be spoken about from the
pulpit, bit If you will send me a GER
tain amount of tickets 1 will see that
they reach where they are most need
ed, and according to my idea this is
the best way they may be distributed.
Yours very truly,
