Bernard McGeein, father Of Dan
McGeein, and who is we'll known In
Lordsburg, had an experience when
the pier at Long Beach was wrecked
last week. Mr.. McGeein, who is a
British subject, had an invitation to
the Empire day services, and a reserv-
ed seat on the pier. A friend invited
him to ride TO Long Beach in his
motor car, and called for him. On
the way to the Beach they had en-
CINE troubles which delayed them so
that when they got there the accident
had occurred. Mr.. McGeein's seat
was in the wrecked portion, and if
the auto had been working good he
would probably have been in the seat,
and been hurt or killed.

TWO AFF|RMAT|0VS
BY SUPREME COURT
Lower Courts Are Affirmed in
the Eccles and Fargo
Cases.

In an opinion handed down by the su.
prcme court yesterday the judgment of
the lower court is affirmed in the case
of the Commercial National bank of
Ogden against the late David Eccles
and others.
The action was brought to prevent
the defendants from tearing down "A
wall that stood between the Eccles
building on the southwest corner of
Twenty-fourth street and Washington
avenue, and the bank building. the Ec-
cles building having burned down a lit
tie more than year ago. 1t was al
legged by the plaintiff COMPANY that it
owned a half interest in the wall I'D to
the third story despite the fact that
the wall was on land owned by the Ec-
cles interest.
The lower court decided in favor of
the bank. The opinion of the supreme
court is written by Chief Justice Nc
Carty and concurred in by Justice
Straup. Justice Frick enters dissent
ing opinion.
The opinion of the lowe. court in the
case of Joseph Fagio against the Corey
Brothers Construction company also was
affirmed. The action was brought to re-
cover damages for personal injuries al
legged to have been received by the
plaintiff while in the employ of the con-
structlon company. In the lower court
Judgment for $500 was entered, from
which judgment the construction com
pany appealed. The opinion OF the su-
preme court is written by Chief Justice
Justice Frick concurs and
Justice Straup dissente
