FINDS DEED TO HER HOME IN
HANDS OF CORPSE IN GRAVE

Syracuse. n. Y, July 30.-Digging
into the grave of her uncle, Jay
Wheeton, who had been dead four
years, Mrs. John Wheeton, of Fair
mount, to-day recovered a deed to her
nome which she found cIutched in the
hands of the corpse. Mrs. Wheeton
says her uncle agreed to leave her the
house when he died and made a deed
to that effect. After his demise it
could not be found and relatives start
ed to put her out of her house.
She remembered seeing the papers
in her uncle's casket, hired a man
named Degan, and helped exhume the
body, recovering not only the deed but
some valuable insurance papers. Mrs
Wheeton claims the documents were
buried in an effort to defraud her out
of the property.

SUICIDE IN DOUBT

Sunbury, Pa, July 30.-A reward,
no amount named, has been offered
for the recovery of the body of Roy
Titman, of lola, Columbia county, who
is believed to have jumped into the
Susquehanna, near Bloomsbury more
than a week ago. There are some
who doubt the story, and believe that
Titman disappeared TO evade a court
order requiring him to contribute to
his wife's support. He left his coat
and a note pinned on it, saying he
was going to end it all.

SWEDEN BUYS GERMAN COKE

The Importation of coke from Ger
many during the last few months has
been exceptionally good. During May
l, 1915. 16 ships arrived in Stockholm
from German harbors with about
so, 900 tons of coke. This great coke
import is, of course, caused by the
high prices of coal in England and the
freights from there. Many steamers,
especially the smaller ones, as we'll as
the state and private railways, are
now using coke-either alone or mixed
with coal or wood-as fuel, apparently
with good results. as the import of
coke continually increases. - Consul

PROBLEMS OF COMMON LAW
Times Have Changed Since the Great
Authorities Wrote Learnedly on
the Subject.

In the early history of the common
law, when recorded precedents were
far less numerous than they are to-
day and when learned CLOSES and COM
mentaries were few, 1t was more near
ly possible for an Industrious lawyer
to know them all. Just as DR.. Samuel
Johnson ventured to write a dictionary
of the English language out of his own
head, so did William Blackstone and
James Kent attempt to state the en-
tire common law. He would be a bold
and an ill-advised man who would at
tempt to do either today.
In their day 1t was possible to re-
gard the opinion of Judge in It'll
gated case as the last word upon the
subject of his decision. So, also, the
opinions of the few learned commenta-
tors, like Coke and Blackstone and
Kent, we're regarded with much
greater generation than are the Opin-
ions of their modern successors
The modern judges and writer's are
often compared much to their disad-
vantage with these venerable masters
Of the past. But this Is far from being
wholly due to the superior learning
and ability of the ancients; 1t is due
/, in part to the greater simplicity of
their problem. and in part to their
, lack of competitors on the top rounds
| of the ladder

Cruel Treatment.

Thomas A. Edison smiled when ref
erence was made at dinner to cruel
and barbarous treatment, and said
he was reminded of an incident along
that line
Some time since a pretty young
wife brought suit against her hus-
band for divorce on the grounds of
cruelty, and when the case was called
the fair petitioner was put on the
witness stand
You say in your petition, madam. "
interrupted the judge at one interval,
that your husband treated you with
great cruelty"
Yes, sir" was the soft and meek
rejoinder of the witness, he was
cruel to me very often"
In what particular way?" asked
the judge. Il want to hear some spe-
cific cases."
In many ways answered the pc
titioner. One of the worst things he
used to do was to say things to me
on the telephone, and then hang up
the receiver before ] could answer
back. "-Philadelphia Telegraph.
