JUDGE CALLS WIDOWS
AGE CLAUSE QUIBBLE
Justice Van 0rsdel Gives Sharp An
swer in Whitney. Groo
Case,

Justice Van Orsdel, of the Court of
Appeals. in an opinion yesterday, held
that a title to real estate in the District
is not defective because of the fact that
il hereafter a widow OF seventy years Of
age remarries, any children that might
come to her of the marriage would be
entitled to a share in her real estate.
The point developed in the suit
brought by Charlotte Anita Whitney
against Mahlon Groo to compel the spe-
cific performance Of a contract for the
purchase of real estate. The bill was
dismissed in the District Supreme Court
on Groo's objection to the title rendered
by the plaintiff, on the ground that
widow past the age of seventy years
may hereafter have children born TO
her, who would be entitled TO an inter-
est in the property"
"A purchaser cannot be compelled to
take doubtful title" declared Justice
Van orsdel, Neither can he refuse TO
perform his contract because of a bare
possibility that a title may be affected
by a remote and improbable cause. The
defect here relied upon does not amount
even to a remote contingency In the
light of human experience, a court is
justified in treating it as an utter i'm
1t is not the function OF a
court to indulge in frivolous bubbles
or technicalities."
The decree of the lower court in dis
the bill is reversed and the
cause is remanded for further proceed
ings,

SMASHERS OF Washers
To ESCAPE PUNISHMENT
Police Probably will Be Lenient with
Those Who Resent Insults
to Women.
CASE REACHES POLICE COURT

Il admire a man who will protect a
woman "
This was the comment made by Mai
Richard Sylvester, superintendent of the
Metropolitan Police Department, yester-
day, when asked whether or not he would
sanction the wholesale thrashing OF
Washers by brothers and friends OF
women who are very often insulted on
the streets OF the city.
While Mai. Sylvester did not say, the
inference was that the Police Depart
ment will sympathize with the man who
goes to aid of a woman who has been
insulted by "masher." And the chances
are that Judge Mullowney and Judge
Pugh, of the Police Court. will commend
the man who whips the culprit, and, in
addition, fine the man who made the in
sulting remark.
Il have had officers detailed on the
principal streets for sometime with in
structions to arrest all 'mashers,' said
Maj. Sylvester yesterday.
1t Is very evident that the "masher,"
from now on. will find little sympathy.
Yesterday, Richard o. Muller. an engi-
neer. was fined SIS in the Police Court
for trying, it is alleged. to make mash"
on Mrs. E. e. Thomas. of s23 Thirteenth
Street Northwest. Mrs. Thomas. herself.
II is said resented the mash" and whaled
Muller in the face with a silver mesh
handbag.
Muller was arrested Saturday night by
Sergt. Harry Lehman, Of the First po-
lice precinct. II was testified at the trial
that Muller said to Mrs. Thomas, "oh.
you pretty chicken"
Judge Mullowney gave Muller lee
ture. and advised all women TO protect
themselves in the streets. All women
who are plucky enough TO whip mash
ers" need not fear of punishment before
Judge Mullowney. On the contrary, the
judge will commend them and fine the
"masher."
The Police Department Is on the still
hunt for the Washers" and will arrest
every man making insulting remarks TO
women. So smash the masher and the
chances are that you will do the Police
Department a favor. and also help protect
the womanhood of the city.

FIRE MARSHAL PLAYS
HERO, SAVING TERRIER
P. W. Nicholson Rescues Small Pei
of Maj. Leiteh in Lanier
Place Fire. ~

Fire Marshal p. ". Nicholson PLAYED
the role of hero early yesterday morn
ing at the fire which visited the Stafford
Apartments on Lanier Place, when he
saved from probable death the little rat
terrier dog Of Maj. D. J. Leitch.
Nicholson made a trip to the top floor
Of the burning building. while the firenen
were working to find out IL possible the
origin OF the fire. While up there he
heard the little dog yelping, and push
ing through thick smoke found the canine
almost drowned from the vast amount of
water. He tucked the dog under his
arm, found his way back to the ground
floor and turned him over to his master.
Maj Leitch was greatly worried for the
safety Of his little pet, and was happy
when Nicholson turned him over safely.
The damage to the building was esti-
mated at $500, and the loss to occupants
about 5000. The origin OF the fire could
not be learned. Up until the fire the
building was thought to be fireproof
The occupants of the apartments were
forced to leave the building scantiIy at
tired. but were given shelter by neigh
bors.
In less than two hours after the blaze
was discovered The Herald,s readers in
Mount Pleasant had a full account of
the fire

CHARGE OF FRAUD
DENIED in court
Continuation Of Hearing IN
Arlington Hotel Case
Draws Crowd.
TWO BROKERS UPHELD
Blairs Attorney Argues that Archibald
and Howard Are Entitled to
Commission.

All day yesterday Chief Justice Harry
NJ. Clabaugh, Of the District Supreme
Court. listened TO arguments in the
cases of William Corcoran Hill and
Arthur D. Addison against Woodbury.
Blair and the National Savings and
Trust Company. In which the plaintiffs
seek to recover $4,000 as commissions
on the sale of the Arlington Hotel site.
The arguments were not concluded
when the court adjourned. and IL will
require several hours today to present
the legal phases Of the case.
James F. ]. Archibald and George
Howard claim that they succeeded in
organizing the new Arlington Hotel
company and that they are entitled to
tne commission for effectins the actual
sale OF the site of the new hotel.
The courtroom was well filed with in
terested spectators yesterday. and At
torneys A. s. Worthington and John w
ferkes. In their arguments for the
plaintiffs. did not hesitate to charge un-
fairness and bad faith to their clients.
Attorney Frank J. Hogan, who is
representing the claim Of Archibald and
Howard, denounced the charge of fraud
which has been frequently made dur.
ing the ten days this case has been on
trial, as unsupported by any evidence
He challenged his opponents to make
good their charges, and asserted that
the evidence of the plaintiffs themselves
natly reputed the charges made by
their attorneys.
Darlington with Brokers.
Attorney J. ]. Darlington argued tina,
Mr.. Blair and the Trust Company were
only liable TO the persons who actually
brought about the sale of the property.
He Joined with Mr.. Hogan in the con-
tention that the evidence showed that
Archibald and Howard were entitled to
the commission.
The Arlington Hotel site was sold in
March, 1911. by the trustees of the Eustis
estate for N.40o.000 cash. 1t has been
brought out that the trustees agreed 10
pay Archibald commission Of 2l-2 Der
cent. amounting to S35. 900, for bringing
about the sale. and that Archibald agreed
to give George Howard two-thirds OF
this commission for assisting in get
ting up the syndicate to buy the prop
erty.
The controversy as to who is entitled
to this commission seems to have ariser
because all brokers trying to sell tn,
old hotel site approached in their nego.
tiations leading New York hotel archi.

imperial double headed eagle is to be
seen everywhere and on everything
throughout the empire-stamped paint
ed, embroidered or sculptured At that
period the education of grand dukes
was somewhat limited. This grand
duke went out shooting in Germany
and. among other things. shot large
bird. He asked an experienced hunts
man who accompanied him what the
bird was. "An eagle. your highness,"
was the answer The grand duke turn

has only one head?"

Shadeless Forests.

Large tracts of dense forests in Aus
tralia are practically shadeless. Many
kinds of trees in that strange country
face of the leaves to the sun. and thus
one may stand under tree of enor-
nous size and be as fully exposed to
the sun as though he were in the open
plain. Travel through these forests is
said to be exceedingly arduous work,
as the trees. while they do not cut off
the sun, prevent the breeze from reach
ing the ground. and thus the traveller
experiences a sitting heat.
