THE SUDDEN END
 0F 4 DAMAGE SUIT
The Case of Brideman vs. Eastering
 & Whitney.

The peculiar damage suit of F. F.
 BridSnan against Easterling X Whit hey ended almost as soon as the trial
 of it was begun before Judge Kent yes
 terday, the jury being instructed by the court to return a verdict for the defend | ants there having been sustained an ] objection by tn defense to the ques- | tions asked by the plaintiff on the ground that tn" testimony designed to be elicited was at variance with the allegations of the complaint. In the examination of the veniremen as to their qualifications to sit in the | case, all were asked by the defense of they were spiritualists. Jurymen who believed in the supernatural were not wanted. though considering the circum- stances of the case, it is difficult to see what difference it made whether jur or was a spiritualist or not.
 About a year ago the wife of the plaintiff died in Los Angeles and the body was sent here for interment. It was enclosed in zinc lined shipping case as the health regulations required and was turned over to the defendants for burial.
 some days or weeks later lllt pidlUtiLl claimed to have had a dream or vision in which his wife stood before him and in some manner communicated to him tha; the box enclosing her casket had been removed and another box. not lined with zinc, substituted for it. This vision was repeated until finally the plaintiff said he opened the grave and found that such a substitution had been made.
 It transpired that the undertakers in this matter had 'ollowed the usual cus- tom. It was explained that bodies are never buried in shipping cases for the reason that the zine lining prevents the gradual evaporation of the gases in to the earth In this case the Zinc-lin- ed case had been removed and the plaintiff was given credit for the value of it. The defendants might some time use it for shipping a corpse, in which case it would be worth as much to them as they had allowed. But in place of it the usual new outer burial case was used.
 It was further explained that there was no attempt to conceal the fact of the substitution. The plaintiff and all who attended the burial must have mo- ticed it. so that there was no need Of a vision to inform him of it.
 But all this matter came out in the pleadings and not in the evidence for the testimony stage was not reached m the trial.

THERE'S NOT MUCH IN A NAME.

That the thought makes the wrong ness of an act is exampled anew in
 the fact that an alias may be assumed
 in good faith and carry no stigma of
 disgrace. Any one who does not like
 the name his family gave him may change it. both surname and Christian name. But this may not be done sec retly as a disguise. The intention is the thing It has been supposed, ap- parently. that it was necessary to take legal steps to change name, but a decision has been handed down by Judge Vann recently, according to a correspondent of the New York Sun, which reads:
 The legislature of 1852 provided a mode of changing the name. hut that act was in affirmance and aid of the common law, to make definite point of time at which a change shall take effect. Without the aid of that act a man may change his name or names. first or last, and when his neighbors and the community have acquiesced and recognized him by his new desig- nation that becomes his name"
 Chief Justice Daly also says; But though the custom is widespread and universal for all males to bear the names of their parents. there Is noth- in the law prohibiting man from talk ing another name if he chooses. There is no penalty or punishment for so do- ing. nor any consequence growing out of it. except so far as may lead to or cause a confounding of his identity.
 One has only to recall such assumed names as Voltaire. Moliere, Dante, Pc trarch. Richelieu. Loyola, Erasmus and Linpaeus and find himself in important company.
 So if one chance to have been named Nebuchadnezzar by an unfeeling par ent. or to have inherited such patro- nymic as Blobbs or Surcingle, one has only to choose Algernon or Arbuthnot or whatever elegancy appeals to one the most and inform ones friends of the change Cassandra Jilkins may cease to be and Rosalthea Crownin- shield may take her place.
