Either the boat is too heawily laden or the Harbor Comwissioners have per- mitted mud to accumulate in the slips.

But weariness was not the greatest discomfort experienced by the passengers.

Supreme Court based thereon. If that order stands Charles L. Fair will be piaced in a particularly awkward di- lemma in regard to his action to break his father’s will. He wiil be compelled either to abandon that suit or to attack the instrument, not knowing but what a subsequent ruling of the Supreme Court might otherwise declare it to be invalid in all points to which he now objects. With the trust clause eliminated the will under discussion would be perfectly satis- factory to Cbarles L. Fair, and he would succeed to one-third of his father's many millions. As it now appears he will nave to £o on with his contest of the insiru- | ment before the Supreme Court has de- cided whether the trust clau-e is vaiid as the execucors insisf, or invalid as Charles Fair believes and as Judge Slack de- cided. It has been confidently expected by Knight & Heggerty, the attorneys for Charles Fair, that the trust case would be disposed of during the Janunary term of the Supreme Court. Their desire to have this matter decided before the w Il contest was heard led them to delay urtil the last moment before filing the notice of contest, and it was only one day before the time allowed by law for doing so expired that Knight & Heggerty commenced the con- test. was filed and hearing was set for Febru- ary 28.
