PRIORITY OF DEATH
TO FIX GREAT ESTATE.
Relatives Of Aged Couple Fight
For 100000 Fortune.

Springfield, Mass.-Disposition Of Z
100000 estate hinges on whether
Sherman D. Porter or his wife died
first in grade crossing accident at
South Deer6eld. According to the med
zeal examiners. both were killed in
stantly.
Relatives on both sides are aligned
for legal fight. The case may be
further complicated If Mr.. Porter's will
makes substantial bequest to his
chauffeur. who was for many years in
his service and whom the railroad COM
pany blames for the accident.
Since the fatality the Porter home
has been visited by relatives who were
never entertained there in the lifetime
of Mr.. and Mrs Porter He was eighty
and his wife much younger. II it can
be established that his death occurred
an instant before hers. her relatives
would become heirs to the estate. His.
relatives intimate that the will bears q
codicil which alters the provisions Of
the instrument if her death should &C.
cur before his.
Under old court rulings. when hus-
band and wife persisted together, the
wife was presumed to have died first.
being the weaker of the two. but later
rulings have been based on close In
quiry into all the circumstances. The
relative ages Of the two. it is said. may
become determining factors in ne P0r-
ter case.
Mr.. Porter made fortune in the
candy business and at the time of his
death was president Of the Kibbe
Bros Manufacturing company. whole
sale confectioners and importers.

THEY LOVE THEIR PAJAMAS.
Englishmen Said to Take a Delight In
Wearing Thorn Publicly.

Wearing Thorn Publicly.
Writing from South Africa about the
sights to be seen in that country. E.
W. Howe In his monthly says:
ION the line between Bulawayo and
Salisbury there are a good many
towns. including one built around the
best gold mine in Rhodesia. And how
the people turned out to see the train
come in! At one place we estimated
that there must have been 500 around
the station.
"Trains travel over the line only two
or three times week, and people
seem to come from great distances In
the country to see the trains go by.
But between the sta6ons there were
millions of acres of land as wild as it
was in the days of Adam.
"Early in the morning our English
passengers walked about in pajamas
when we stopped at stations. English
men love that sort Of thing. At Vic
toria falls they visited the Rain forest
in pajamas, and in johannesburg was
told that on Sundays and holidays pa
jamas are worn around houses and
yards until lunch time.
"Englishmen show their pajamas so
much that cordially hate that partic-
ular form of nightdress. Englishmen
have the same passion for running
around in pajamas that American boys
have for running around in baseball

OLD ENGLISH JURIES.
They Were Fined or Beaten For Not
Reaching a Verdict.

They Were Fined or Beaten For Not
Reaching a Verdict.
Not always enviable was the lot Of
the old time juryman, for there was
always the prospect Of trouble II the
verdict did not crafty the higher pow
ers. Thus the failure of jury to con-
Wet Sir Nicholas Throckmorton made
Queen Mary ill for three days. and
she came out Of her sick chamber to
fine the disobliging jury meanwhile
confined in PRISON. the sum of $1,000
q head.
Elizabeth followed the same plan,
and the practice Of timing English ju-
ries did not cease until 1910. when q
fine, inflicted by the notorious Jeffreys
was rescinded on appeal.
In some old time courts of quarter
sessions" the injunction to lay their
heads together had to be carried out
by jurymen in literal fashion. When
they began to consider the verdict they
were supposed to dive beneath the
level of the jury box and remain in
that cramped position until a decision
was reached.
Meanwhile the court usher stood
near the box armed with long wand
of willow If any juryman ventured
to emerge above the surface before the
twelve minds were agreed down came
the wand on the head of the offender.
