DEAD MAN IS
 NOT ALLOWED
 TO DISPUTE IT

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 27.-Judge Fred H. Taft of the superior court here has ruled that when the su- preme court of California says a man is dead, he is dead, and his own affidavit to the contrary is not admissible to disprove his death.
 The ruling, said by lawyers to be unique, was made here in connec- tion with the settlement of the es- tate of Thomas Wilcox, who died few months ago. According to the evidence, the widow was thrice married Her first husband was Al bert Broberg, whom she wed in 1897, and who disappeared soon thereaf- ter Later, she married Dr. Leh- man, who subsequently brought an annulment action, claiming he had learned Broberg was alive. While the case was in the supreme court on appeal Dr. Lehman died. Later the widow married MT. Wilcox.
 Then the supreme court held the fact that Broberg was alive had not been established. That ruling validated the subsequent marriages.
 After the death of MT. Wilcox, his son by a former marriage was made administrator, and set about establishing the rights of the heirs. He procured an affidavit from Bro berg, now in Canada, that he is not dead.
 When the final account was pre- sented, the affidavit was offered to the court. Then came the ruling that the supreme court decision con trolled the court, that Broberg was legally dead, and that his affidavit to the contrary could not be re- ceived in evidence.

BLACK WHALE
 KILLS FISHES

LOS ANGELES. Sept. 27.-Orca or black killer, the savage, toothed member of the whale family, migrat. ing southward in schools of unpre- cedented size, have been responsible recently for panic among the game fish of the Catalina channel and of reports of poor catches by fisher men in those waters, the home of the tuna, the sword fish and many other favorites of the devotees of the rod and reel.
 More than half dozen orca in one school is an unusual sight but Joe Welch, a well known sportsman of this city, reported recently having seen the high dorsal fins of hundreds of these vicious monsters cutting the waters of the channel while fishing off Catalina island.
 Devastation invariably accompanies visitation of the black killer fish ermen said It attains length of twenty feet and weight of 2,000 pounds and fish of all sizes are it's prey. Even after having eaten it's fill the black killer continues to rend and maim anything that crosses it's path, apparently for the savage joy of killing.
 Fishermen declared catches would continue negligible in the channel until days after the orca were well on their way south ward and the terror created by their raids had had time to wear off

MEXICO CITY.-El Democrata, newspaper published here, makes the frank admission that it's news dis patches are selected with the ex- press purpose of presenting the cause of the central powers in the most favorable light. In answering accusations that it was devoted to German propaganda, Fl Democrata asserts it is not pro-German but is pro-Mexican, adding:
 We publish the telegrams which give the most favorable accounts of the deeds of the Austro-German armies because there are in Mexico papers of great resources which are dedicated solely to the insertion of news favorable to the allies, and as our government has declared itself neutral it should be the duty of one daily of importance to give cogni- zance to that which rebounds to the credit of the central powers"
