This ordinance, however, will not

said district. so it is stated by the
city authorities, but is designed to
prevent any increase of said business
in the district mentioned, for the pur.
lpose of decreasing the fire hazard
This may also tend to decrease the
insurance rates in some sections. The

In his recommendation of the

to the board that it was his opinion

Lady Sackvllle The Scott relatives
contested the will last Spring, claim
ing that Lady Sackville had hypno-.
tized their brother; that she had
stolen into his library to hunt for his
will; that she had pursued him at
all times and at all hours. They
swore on the stand that she had been
responsible for their mothers death,
and that in the Scott family the
Sackvilles were called 'the hungry
locusts." and Her I.adyship in partic-
ular as 1.-The earthquake"
Every argument put forth by the
Scott lawyers was rcfutcd by Lady
Sackvllle's cleverness, and In the end
the jury awarded her the bulk of the
Scott fortune. which may amount to
over 100000. 1t includes Park
Lane mansion and one In Paris.
Lord Sackyille on the stand swore
that he approved of this friendship
and that Scott had of his own free
Will paid n mortgage OF 100000 on
knole Park.
1t was testified thut Sir John Scott
liked to sit by Lady Sackville while
she let her glorious hair fall over her
had exercised no undue influence
over him.
AS Lady Sackville sees herself pos
sessed of the fortune she fought for,
she knows that, III q way, she has
paid for 1t. Scott developed into R

with pearls one day and qunrreled
with her the next. Among his gifts
TO her were many jewels OF great
value. an emerald bracelet worth
$4,000, and checks that ran up into
the hundred thousands.
In 1911 Sir John weakened In his
allegiance to his friend, and told her
he had changed his will, leaving the
