Students See Deutschland. The college girls are taking ad- vantage of the opporturity of seeing the Deutschland, which is docked at New London. At first it was expected that the college students would be in- vited to view the submarine, but ow- ing to the demand for passes, and es- pecially for the privilege of allowing all college students in this state to visit the boat, it was decided to re- fuse the request of the Connecticut College. Although it is not possible to visit the boat ,there are many means of seeing the boat, its appearance and the manner in which it is being loaded. Winthrop Ready Saturday Announcement has been made ‘that Winthrop, the new. dormitory, will be ready to receive its occupants on Sat- urday. The furnishings have already been’ received and arranged in the house. ‘The Winthrop house presents a more homelike appearance than the other dormitories, being a Wooden structure, while the other buildings are -stope. The interior of Winthrop is very at- tractive, the woodwork is soft gray,. the doors and jambs being white wood and the floors are finished . in hard wood. " A large fireplace in the recep- tion room opposite a row.of windows, facing the river, give the roo ma cosy and very attractive appearance. Win- throp is but a temporary building, bullt of wood, because of the lack of buildings funds to build a stone dorm- itory in accordance with the plans of the ‘trustees. 7 T Q=00 Every | cost to the state was $166 for cach vote | able interest shown as to how the sol- i the two commissioners appointed by ik Sl superior ursday B the case Kaszewics, appeal from o bn;.“ 'r:': I 1 came, Tnvolires BeODerty. i NisMtia lert by the late Clara M. Root. - The contest arose over the will of Clara M, Root of Hartford and in- volved. real n Grove, ‘Ni- antic, nmm ai and the anfi ‘went to Mi . . After the settloment of the estate Miss Kas- cewicz of New stated that she had a will of Mrs. Root in which she was appointed administratrix. The judge’s decision in ‘the case is as_follows: - In her application to the court of probate for East Lyme, which is the basis of the several ' orders from which this appeal has been. taken, this appelles alleged’ that the estats of Clara M. Root had already been ad- ministered, settled, distributed apd closed in that court. That application is dated July 22, 1915. It is also ad- mitted by both this appellee -and the appellants that the administration and settlement of this estate had been comipleted by the probate court on Oct. 21. 1914, and the real estate dis- tributed in a way on October 22, 1914; and that no appeal had been taken by anyone. In such circumstances the court of probate had no power to make the or- ders complained of fn this appeal. This appellee further . alleged and proved that she was appointed exe- cutrix of the will of Clara M. Root by ‘he surrogate's court in Brooklyn, New York, on Aug.. 81, 1914, nearly two months before the final settlement of the estate in the probate court of Bast Lyme, and nearly a vear before she made application to that court for an- cillary appointment. It was not de- nied that she knew of the previous proceedings in that court. If she, who Niantic—Judge Rules Probate Court Had No' Power to Issue Orders Complained of. is not an inhabitant of this state, had no notice to be present and was not present in the probate court when the estate was settled in October, 1914, she seems to have chosen to walve any right of appeal, which she still had in July, 1915, when she made her application for ancillary letters of ad- ministration. But it did not appear that she who is not a relative of Clard M. Root, has ever had any interest in a claim upon her property situated in Bast Lyme or has in any way been aggrieved by any order of the probate court. Hence there appears to be no equity in her favor. The orders complained of are not ex-parte, nor passed under a revoked will, nor relating to a will discov- ered and presented to the probate court before the final settiement ‘of an estate. The order of October 21, 1914, settling the administration aceount was in the nature of a final judgment and eonclusive of all matters involved in it, including the jurisdictional fa of residence. The property of the de ceased in this state was real estate and it passed to. those entitled to it by our laws, since it was not needed to pay debts there was not any property. in this state to be subject to ancillary administration in July 1915, when this appellee applied for it. She has al- leged that she is interested in the real estate but shé has failed to prove the statement, either by showing unpaid debts or claims against the deceased or otherwise. She has been guilty of unreasonable delay in asking for her appointment and sufficient objection to filing and recording of the copies of the documents she presented has been shown. There are other objections to some of the orders appeaied from. They are all improper and null afd void, because the court of probate had no power to make them. Therefore. they are all set aside. Judgment may be entered accord- ingly. HOW THE BORDER SOLDIERS’ VOTE WENT. Hughes Got Sixteen of the Forty-seven Ballots Cast. In view of the fact that the governor of Connecticut calied a special session of the general assembly to pass an act providing for the taking of the vote of the Connecticut spidiers on the border; that such vote was taken. and that the so taken, there is nzturally consider- diers voted.
