AT THE LYRIC. THE LAW ESTATE. so much of the Income aa might be necessary for their support, or where the legateo had power to consume the corpus and this privilege was abused. The case nearest ours in point is Davidson's Estate, 204 Pa., 379 but in that case the widow was "to have and enjoy the use of said personal property at will." We can reconcile this decision with Levy's Kstate, 153 tDa., 174, only by supposing that the words "at will" work a limitation of the widow's right to the income. In Levy's Estate the widow Is given an absolute estate of the whole Income of testator's residuary estate during her life, but in a subsequent clause testator provided that she should not dispose of any of the unv id portion of the income but thjit C--% same should remain for her support, and that any such unused portion should be considered part of his residuary estate. The court held that the widow took the income absolutely to do with as she pleased and awarded her administratrix the balance of the Income remaining unpaid during her lifetime. The language of Judge Penrose In disposing of Levy's Kstate .In court is pertinent hero: "It Is very certain that no power Is given to the executors to determine how much Is to be expended by the widow. All of the income Is to be paid to her. And, though she has suffered part of II to remain in their hands (and, hence, it is argued, she has herself determined the extent of her right to consume), how can it be said, as matter of law or matter of fact, that her so leaving It was not permissive, or that she did not require it, or that her estate Is not liable to third persons who have rendered services or supplied her with property for 'her use and benetit?' If the whole Income had been paid to her as the will directed, and deposited to her individual accnun' in bank, would any balance so deposited revest at her death in the estate of the testator? It is not material that she did not, as she might have done, draw the whole; and the accountants, in holding It, are, we think, to be regarded simply as her agents or bankers." 1 Dlst. Rep. 220. See also Kiddie's Appeal, 6fl Pa., 190. We conclude therefore that the failure of the widow to have set aside to her all the Income did not work an abandonment of It, and it passed at her death to her administrator.RAILROAD WRECK PITTSTON CASE IN JURY'S HANDS CARLTON GUILTY.

One of the largest audiences of the season gathered at the Lyric theater last evening to witness the performance of the International Stock Co., "Between and Duty." The audience was pleased and voclferoudly applauded when a situation went to their liking. The cftniedy parts, with which the play is frequently Interspersed. were received with an uproar of laughter. The play proved to be all that was claimed for it. It is an Interesting war drama In four acts, and the performance went without a hitch. Henry McRade was seen to good advantage as Capt. Buchannon, while Harry flav, as Captain Ralston, was just such a plotting, scheming conspirator as the creator of the role intended him to he. Miss McBeth had a charming role and filled it with rare grace and understanding of the exaction of the part. During the action of the play some excellent specialties were introduced by members of the company.

AboiU 7- o'clock in the evening, after the men employryl at the slope had quit work and while the watchman was at another part of the colliery, the little girl was wandering about the place and tried to walk across a slope where a wire rope was moving on sheave wheels. In some manner the child, in passing, was caught by the rope, and was dragged along the track to a sheave wheel, where she was terribly mangled. The girl's cries were heard by an employe, also by Mrs. Green, who lived close by. The machinery was stopped as quickly as possible and the little girl's body released from between the wire rope and the sheave wheel, but her injuries were so serious that she died 15 minutes after being taken to her home.

The hearing was held In Wllkesbarre before Alderman Pollock. County Detective Jones appeared as prosecutor.

After hearing the evidence Artwell was committed to jail without ball. He was represented at the hearing by Attorney Mose Salsburg. It is the contention of one executor.

Great sorrow was occasioned this morning among the friends of Mrs. Mary Ann Nicholson, wife of Alexander B. Nicholson, by the announcement of her death, which occurred at midnight in the rittston hospital. Mrs. Nicholson's last illness was of very short duration. Last Wednesday she was suddenly attacked with appendicitis. On the following day she was removed to the hospital, where an operation was performed soon after she was received. Her constitution was not strong enough to withstand the shock of the operation and she passed away, the immediate cause of death being heart failure. The re-, mains were removed to the family home, 409 Delaware avenue. Mrs. Nicholson was aged 29 years and 15 days, and she had been u resident of West rittston all her life. She was a woman of most estimable character and was possessed of beautiful disposition that attracted to her a wide circle of neighbors and friends. There was great sorrow occasioned among those who knew her on account of her most untimely death. She was a These expressions may have several meanings, and they are not inconsistent with the idea that she Intended the unused Income to go to her administrator for her children. We do not think this testimony as clear and convincing as is necessary to sustain an alleged parol gift. Nor can this be sustained as a valid donatio mortis causa, for it is essential that the gift should have been made in apprehension of death, and these expressions were used several years before her last illness.

There was never any agreement among these parties amounting to a family settlement, and we can find nothing in the evidence which would prove an abandonment by the widow of her estate.
