SURROUNDED BY MYSTERY!
A Great Mistake.
A recent discovery is that headache

etc” are due to derangement of the nerve
:enters which supply the brain with nerve
force: that indigestion, dyspepsia, neuralgia.
wind in stomach, etc.. arise from the derange-
ment of the nerve centers supplying these or-
gans with nerve fluid or force. This is likewise
true of many diseases of the heartand lungs.

Hoyt’s Opera House was packed Sat-

of laughter. George Wilson the inimi-
table minstrel, was at his best and de-
lighted his old friends by his clever say-
ings. He was ably assisted by the Ger-
man Bros, who are always good. . The
Claflin sisters gave a fine exhibition of
dancing and were called upon three
times by the audience and promptly re.
sponded. Monte Carlo Is certainly an
absurdity, but a great success in the

Decision in Oyster Case.
Judge Shumway in New Haven, has
handed down a decision overruling the
demurrer of the defendant and sustain-
ing the plaintiff in the suit of foreclos-
ure brought by Phebe Shaffer, wife of
George H. Shaffer of Brooklyn,against
William B. Read, trustee, and others.
The mortgage was given in 1886
through Henr C. Munsell by George
Shaffer to Phe e Shaffer, in security of
a note for $6,000 given for money
loaned by her to the husband. The
mortgage was upon Shafi'er’s half in-
terest in two tracts of oyster ground
near Stamford, one within town and
the other within state jurisdiction. Re—
cently George Shafi'er was forced into
Insolvency. Reed was appointed trus-
tee of the estate by the Probate Court
and the property passed into his pose
session, the entire interest in the lands
in’ the mean time having passed into
the possession of Shaffer. The case
was tried out in Bridgeport,the plaintiff
being represented by Hon J H. Olm-
stead of Stamford and the defendants
by Col. Russell Frost, of South Nor-
walk, and Judge John H. Perry of
Bridgeport.
Three reasonswere stated in the de-
mum‘er why the mortgages could not be
foreclosed, the one of most importance
being that which claimed that the mort-
gage on the grounds in town jurisdic-
tion was not recorded in the book kept
In the office of the town clerk for re-
chises. The mortgage was recorded in
the volume of real estate mortgages in
the usual way, which raised the ques-
tion of whether oysters in the bed were
real or personal property. .
Elaborate arguments were advanced
by the respective legal gentlemen on
the one hand to show that oysters were ,
realty, and on the other that they were
chattels. Judge Shumway takes the
former stand. _
A second point not before decided in
this state is that a mortgage on state
oyster grounds given by a non-resident
to a. non-resident may be valid.
J udge Shumway’s decision only needs
to be confirmed by the supreme court,
to which the case will undoubtedly be
taken to establish peradventure Attor-
ney Olmstead’s claim that oysters are
real estate and not personal property, a
matter upon which the several statutes
governing the question preserve a dis-
creet ambiguity.
