The question was objected to by Attorney Johnson, representing tbe plaintiff, and tbe court sustained tbe objection. Robblna couched his question In other words and In different forms but Johnson raised an objection each time, and Judge Fox promptly sustained each objection. At this juncture it waa obvioua that the jury was absorbing all of tbe points significant to the question and the judge ordered the jury to retire until tbe attorneya had argued upon the admissibility of testimony of this character. . Robbins declared that he could produce authority that the question should be answered. Judge Fox emphatically declared that he needed no authority and that the question would not be answered nor would others of the same sort be answered in the hearing of tbe caae. "It seems to mc tbat tbe court shouldn't be so anxioua to exclude tbia testimony," said Robblna rather causttcally. The Jury waa brought in again but r,. few minutes later It was asked to ..41re for the second time. After the curt . again informed Robblna that the 'testimony Involved would not be preKenied In bis court, the Jury was called -lb! ' -.

Finally the Judge told Mrs. Abshlre j to leave the stand, aa the. argument .between the two attorneys was becoming heated. ' . "yes. tell her to leave the state, too," Robblna Interposed caustically. "Thai's a cowardly attack to make upon a woman," Johnson almost yelled. "It's no such thing, for any lawyer Will tell you that I have a right to ask her these questions," waa Robblna' reply. Sheriff Called Upon. '-The attorneys took several steps nearer eyeing each other like caged Hons. - - "Sheriff force those . attorneya to fake their seats," the judge ordered. Sheriff Steen ordered the attorneya ' to sit down.

RAILROAD MAGNATE LEFT 110 TESTAMENT

Cast Off Relative, Now a Stevedore, May Inherit Millions. (National News Association) NEW YORK, Feb, 8. An extraordinary situation following tbe revelation tbat tbe late Edwin Hawley, railroad magnate and multimillionaire, left no i will has the directorates of half a dozen big railroads up in the air and confronts Wall street today. Strangely blended with tbe developments which effect "Big business" is a romantic turn of fortune by which a cast-off nephew of the late railroad master, who is now a stevedore, becomes a millionaire worth probably $2,500,000. A conference was called of Hawley heirs and of lawyers representing various Hawley enterprises to be held at 25 Broad street today to arrange plans of settlement. The heirs are Charles Hawley, and Samuel Hawley, brothers; Miss Anna Hawley and Mrs. Harvey Seymour, sisters; three children ol tbe late Mrs. Homer Crandall, another sister; John H. Page of Chatam; Walter S. Crandall, of this city, and Fred Crandall. The last named, a nephew of Edwin Hawley, was formerly a favorite of the dead railroad man who was cast off for an affair with a young operator, Miss McManus, employed- by the Southern Pacific railroad. Young Crandall commenced to lose bis nerve after losing out with Hawley and began to drink. Recently he has been working on the harbor front as a stevedore earning a dollar and a half a day. If a tentative settlement plan Is ratified he will Inherit two and a half millions. The late Mr. Hawley owned controlling interest in the Chesapeake & Ohio. Chicago & Alton, Toledo, St. Louis and Western, Mo., Kan. & Texas, and Minneapolis and St. Louis railroads as well as owning big blocks of stock in a score of other roads. The directors favor a split up of stock lest it will result in chaos in be management which will affect not only the properties themselves but the stock market and numerous other interests. SLIM MEETING OF COUNTY DEMOCRACY At the called meeting of the Jefferson club, a Democratic organisation, last evening, there were only six members present, according to the statement of one of the prominent members of the club. Nothing of any consequence was done towards making 'further plans for the precinct meetings which will be held Saturday. The Demdcratlc .precinct meetings in the city and county are to be held Saturday at which time delegates to the county convention will be chosen. Charles Beck the present county chairman, will retire. The name of Hans Koll is being connected with the county chairmanship and there is little doubt but that Mr. Koll will be nominated for the position. ROAD PREFERRED TO BUILDING A BRIDGE It IS believed by tbe county commissioners that it would be advisable to pay a portion of the damages awarded Adam Howard by a jury in the circuit court in case b road is opened through his farm. If the road is extended to tbe Greensfork pike, Instead of constructing a bridge at the Davis ford In Clay township, which has been petitioned for. The bridge, it Is estimated, would cost about $6,000, whereas the damages assessed against the petitioners for the Howard road amounted In all to approximately $700. The commissioners are inclined to believe that if the road through the Howard farm was extended that it would do away with the alleged necessity of building tbe $6,000 bridge. SWA box. 35c

EAT TWICE A DAY AIIO RELATE JOKES Advice of Physical Instructor Horton to Business College Pupils. "Eat only two meals a day, and keep happy while you eat,'' was the advice given by Roy J. Horton, physical director of the Y. M. C. A. while outlining some health rules before tbe students of the business college this morning. The trend of Horton's argument was that the average citizen of Richmond eats too much. "You can't make people eat less at one meal," said the physical director, "and bo the only way to make them regulate their diet is to have them cut out one of their three meals. A hearty dinner at noon is both unnecessary and harmful, for too much food makes the brain sluggish and spoils one's afternoon work. A person can exist in a healthy condition easily on two-thirds of what the average person now eats, and therefore I would recommend that people stop eating at noon in order to maintain good health." Slow eating was also favored by the Y. M. C. A. expert, but he does not care for the extreme reached in "Fletcherism," as only moderately slow eating is necessary to regulate the digestive organs. "On should always be in a happy frame of. mind at meal time,", said Horton to the college students, "for this will aid proper digestion of food." He told the pupils that they would feel better if they told "funny stories" at the. dinner table.

BRICK AND STONE SIDEWALKS DOOMED All ..-of Main Street Walks Must Be Cement, the . Board Has Ruled.

An order for improvement of Main street sidewalks, on both sides, with cement in places where they are not so constructed now, was confirmed by the board of works at its meeting this morning and ten days time was given to the property owners to remonstrate Foul property owners appeared to enter objections. It is not thought that the improvement will be stopped, as very few of the parties wishing to remonstrate can satisfy the law which states that they must be resident property owners. The territory included is mostly fronting on business blocks. Stone sidewalks and brick sidewalks will be Bupplanted by cement walks. The improvement of East Main street from Twentieth to Twenty-second street by paving will be done with Harris brick, and the contract was ac cordingly fciven to John Hipskind, who had the lowest bid. Several remonstrators who were in favor of creosoted wooden blocks were in the minority. The improvement of South Eighth Btreet from A to H street went by consent. Twenty eight of the forty live property owners were in favor of the improvement. The improvement will be made this summer. City engineer Charles was instructed to draw up plans and specifications. The metropolitan water board of the city of London supplies more than 250,000,000 gallons of water.

He works hard, year in and year out. Does better work, perhaps, earns more money than he used to. But he does not get ahead. He is exactly as poor today as he was when he began earning his living as a boy. What is the matter? He has never learned to save money. Never has a dollar to invest. Never makes a dollar which does not come in his pay envelope.
