came to Greensburg, where he pur-
chased a revolver and ammunition. He
arrived at the house and asked to be
alone in the parlor where his wife's
body lay. AS the minister n friends
waited the shot was heard. The door
was opened and Miller was gasping his
last by the casket.
The funeral was postponed and hus-

They had risen. The guests caught
their breath in a strange alarm. The
great s~arcophagus stood between the
couple and the pulpit.
There was but a moment of hesi-
fancy. Gracefully lifting the train of
her exquisite gown, the bride placed
one dainty hand upon the top of the
coffin, and the next moment had leaped
to the other side. The bridegroom,
though unhandicapped by flowing
robes, was more awkward than she;
but he was quickly at her side. The
blessing was pronounced amid solemn
silence.

Miss Dora Taylor Leaps Over
Corpse to Get Nuptial
Blessing.

LONDON, July 28.-Miss Dora Jess
lyn Taylor and William p. Clyde, jr.,
were married yesterday in the presence
of death. They moved to the altar rail
across the grim granite barrier of a
tomb. Within two feet of them as
they knelt for the final blessing lay a
dead man. But the bride and BRIDE
groom didn't seem to mind 1t a bit.
Their progress to the altar was a
physical as well as a moral triumph.
AS the brlghtly-dressed wedding
guests assembled in the church the
great green granite tomb stood-a
seemingly insurmountable bulwark-
before the pulpit. The bride and BRIDE
groom entered. They moved to the
chancel rail, and. during the first part
of the ceremony, the presence of the
dead seemed forgotten.
But, according to the strict ritual OF
the church, they were m to
the base Of the pulpit for the blessing.

Attention Called to Strange
Case - Entered Bridgeport
Town Farm When Young Man

For nearly 80 years an inmate of
Lakeview home, forgotten by his rela-
tives and former friends, Frederick
H. Brakeman, whose father, the late
Henry Brakeman was once we'll known
in this city, has suddenly been re-
called to the memories of older
Bridgeporters through a legal action
instituted through the Superior court
with a view to regaining for the desti-
tute old man, property it is alleged has
been wrongfully withheld from him.
Brakeman was prematurely gray
years ago. The oldest inmates of
Lakeview home say he was young and
handsome when he first entered the
institution but soon aged SO rapidly
that he grew old far ahead of his
time. Never mentally vigorous his
mind was not able to Withstand his
constant worriment over his affairs,
which he said were being manipu-
lated to his detriment. His prema-
ture sensibility is attributed to this
cause.
For years no thought had been CIV

DEFENDANTS LOSE
IN SUIT ARISING
FROM HAT STRIKE
l'uportant Decision in First
Round of Conflict Between
Independent Hatters and AS
SOciatiOn

Judge Milton A shumway in the
Superior court has overruled the de-
murrer entered by the defendants in
the suit brought by the Associated
Hat Manufacturers Co. of New York
against the Baird -Unteidt CO. OF
Bethel The Hat Manufacturers, of
which the defendant company was un-
til the settling of the recent hat strike
in Danbury. a member. brought suit
against the defendant on the ground
that the latter failed to carry out in
good faith its part Of the agreement
with the association relative to enter
ing into contracts with union hatters
as individuals and not as a body OF
union hatters. and also using union
labels In their hats. The Baird-Un-
teidt Co. for a time would not listen
to the demands of the strikers. but
finally took them back and placed the
union labels in the hats.
In their demurrer the defendants
held that the plaintiffs could not hold
them to such an agreement as was
entered into. The court in overruling
the demurrer says:
"It appears inferentially that agree
ments Of the character set out in the

In New York Certainly an agree
J ment to maintain what is called an

LOCAL AVIATOR
MAKES A GREAT
SUSTAINED TRIP

Garden City, L. l., Feb. 17-Frank
Paine. Of Bridgeport, Conn.,. yesterday.
made sustained flight of thirty-six
minutes. The air was extremely cold
for aeroplaning. Paine made brief
work of the getaway over the frozen
snow-covered ground. He rose to a
height of about seventy-five feet,
which he maintained for over half an
hour, making twelve laps of the field.
1t was learned today that other avi-
ators attempted to make flights yes
terday but were prevented because of
the strong wind which was blowing
and because Of the cold. Paine sue
ceeded to getting away to good
start, maintaining an even altitude
over the course. He remained in the
air exactly 36 minutes, which is re-
garded very remarkable considering
the climate conditions Paine made
three other trips through space, but
did not remain so long in the air on
either. When he had completed his
work he was warmly congratulated
by the other bird-men.
1t is now regarded that Paine's
flight on Washington's birthday, Feb.
Y, will be most successful. Now that
Paine is making daily flights local
people are beginning to warm up to
him, knowing that he will deliver the
goods when he makes his first trip
in his home town. 1t is expected that
thousands will turn out on the hol1-
day to bid the local lad, welcome.
Though the majority of the factories
in the city will be closed because Of
the holiday, others will be kept open.
Arrangements have been made with
these factories to allow their employees
to remain from work for one hour. It
Will be arranged that all the factory
whistles in the city will give number
of blasts half an hour before the start
Of the air ship. This will afford the
workers ample time to get to Seaside
Park.
The committee is anxious to make
the purse to be presented to Paine
about $4,000. but the amount so far re-
ceived is slightly over one quarter that
sum. 1t is hoped that the people of
the city, now knowing that Paine is
really flying, will contribute to swell
the purse. 1t is assured all those who
contribute that every cent will be CIV
en- to Paine, and that if the flight is
not successful that the full amounts
will be returned to the donors
