De cisions were handed down by the Su preme Court today in five appealed cases. One of the most important decisions is that In which the court lays down a rule governlrwr the' right of real estate dealers to commlslson In certain transactions. Pruce Wolverton, et al, respondent, vs. Oeorge Ttlttlo and Mary Tuttle, appellants, from Multnomah County. Arthur t. Fraser, Julse: reverses! and remanded; opinion by Commissioner King. Wolveftnn and his associates were real es tate dealers and Induced John Manning and L. H. Tarpley to purchase a plena of prop erty In Portland, belonging to Georse end Mary Tuttle. They had no previous arrange ment with Tuttle, but after finding the pur chaser went to Tuttls for .a price and the latter said he would taka not leas than $20. 00O net. Manning and Tarpley would pay not more than $20,000. The sale was com pleted and .the real estate Arm brought suir for the cohunlsslon. $fl:0, for which they secured Judgment against the Tuttles. who appealed. The 9unreme Court holds that the testimony for platntlfTa shows that the raal estate Arm could not have been entitled to a commission unless the price secured wa more thatv $20,000, hence tha Arm acted at their own peril In bringing buyer and seller together without an understanding respect ing payment of commission.

Justice Moore dissents, saying that the office of chairman of the board Is only temporary, being called Into existence when the srhool board Is legally assembled and continued until the business considered at such meeting has been fully discharged, altered or countermanded at a subsequent meeting. Hence. In his opinion, the director who le gally acted as chalrtnan of the meeting was the only person authorised to Issue the re quired notice. ti Caldwell BanKltw Trust Company, re spondents, vs. Porter.

Just within sight of the drawing-room windows of Mrs. Jamea Speyer'a delight ful Summer home at Scarboro-on-the Hudson, possibly 300 yards from the house, lies a cluster of tiny graves. Bach la marked with a handsome white marble tombstone upon which i severally In scribed the names of the departed, the dales of their deaths and in soma eases the time when they were born. Upon one is engraved 'Jimrnle, born 1SS6, died 1S98"; upon another. Petie, died June. 1906"; "Iaohengrin, died 1901"; "Shamrock, born August. 1900, died, 190S." and so on throughout the list. It la by no means a family borylng ground, as one at first glance might imagine, but a dog cemetery in which are laid away the bodies of Mrs. Speyer'a canine pets who, having served their years of usefulness on this mundane sphere, have passed on to the happy hurrting grounds where de parted dogs enjoy the fruits of their faithful devotion to friends on earth. It is not inclosed, but the little reser vation enjoys precisely the same care and attention aa that given any other -part of the big escate. and It la Mrs. Speyer's pleasure to decorate 'the graves of the pets, of whom she was so ' fond, with flowers and plants. In her city home at 257 Madison avenue. by far the most important member of the household as each one cheerfully agrees is "W Ting Fang ' Mrs. Speyer's $1000 Chinese Chow dog. which she im ported from England. "Wo," or "Fang." as he Is pretty generally called, is really possessed of royal ancestry, for members of hia family are owned in the homes of royalty. "Fang" is an aristocrat. He not oniy receives quite as much attention aa any child of wealth and high position, but what is more he expects it. and makes the worst sort of a fusa if he doesn't get it. He has a maid at his disposal who prac tically devotes her entire time to his care. He sleeps on a rich and handsome blanket at the foot of the maid's bed and his care and grooming are not to be equaled by the most pampered pet of fashion. Once a month he la regularly anam- pooed. submitting tn the process with as much complacency aa a'ny young woman of fashion. "Fang la a pretty heaitny canine, but frequently he gets tempora rily out of sorts, and then he la taken to a veterinarian or the latter comes tjj him and ne is treated for ma lire on ecien tlflo principles and tha fee for his physl clan'a visit is fully aa high as would be charged by any high-class doctor to his human patients. t. Fresh air 1 quite important to "Fang a" health, and every morning he goes with the maid for a walk In tha park, while every afternoon regularly, whether any other member of the family goes out or not. "Fang" rides for a couple of .hourg In th motor car. He alts up In th back seat with all the air of a prince of royal blood and he its devotedly fond of motor ing. Moreover,, he can pick out the Bpeyer cars from a score or more, and If the car comes along while he Is taking his walk he stops short and no amount of persuasion will Induce him to take an other step. Rid he will and th maid must put him aboard. LJk any well regulated autnmohlllst, he Is supplied with a complete outfit for the sport and when driving In the open car wears his goggles, chest protector, sweater, etc. Should the weather be raw, cold and the walks wet. then for walking he Is garbed In a leather, felt-lined blanket with gold mountings, and upon hia royal feet he wears shoes to match. If hia mistress ia devoted to "Fang" the latter repay her devotion In kind. He knows her ring at the door and wltl pay attention to no other. . Mrs. Speyer, like John Haynes, former president of the Society for th Preven tion of Cruelty to Animals, is an advo cate of burial places for pets. Mrs. Speyer feels that the careless tossing aside of the bodies of faithful animal friends tends to lower the standard of regard toward dumb animals. Besides the gravea of her dead pets of Bcarboro, Mrs. Speyer has some eight or ten very live dogs on the place of which she Is tremendously fond, and her Summers there are largely spent in taking long tramps with her dumb friends or driving about with tha whole pack in her trail. HONORS AN ENGLISH GIRL Tassar College Electa .Foreigner the President of Junlora. New Tork Teleara:m. Vassar girls held enthusiastic meet ings at the college, Poughkeepsle. re cently, for the purpose of electing class officers for the next semester. It wsaj a day of bustle and fun for all the classes, despite the fact that examina tion time was near at hand. What Is regarded as the most inter esting feature of the day was the elec tion of Miss In on Mllholland aa presi dent of the class of 1909. Miss Milhol land's home Is In London, and she and her sister Vida have crossed the sea to attend Vassar College. Since her election, Thursday, this Bnglleh girl has the distinction of being the first foreign student to hold a clasa presi dency at Vassar. Miss Mllholland Is a deservedly uni versal favorite at college, being pos sessed of all the qualities essential to popularity. 'She has been an active worker In every field of college 11 f, and has been foremost in promoting the interests of her class. Consequent ly, her classmates are celebrating the event of her election. The Juniors, singing gaily, - filed across the campus to North Hall, and gathering beneath the window of their president, serenaded her with aongs and cheers. Miss Mllholland appeared at her window and made a charming little address to her classmates be low, telling them of her appreciation of the high honor conferred upon her and paying a high tribute to Miss Cora Edgecomb, the retiring president. - The freshmen had by thla time Joined the happy crowd, and they too had a catchy song to sing in honor of the president of their slater class. Miss Mllholland ia a young; woman ef striking personality. She is tall and graceful, with a face of refined beauty, shaded by a mass of wavy black hair. Her manner is naturally winning, and she creates an atmosphere of good humor wherever she goes. She -is an apt atudent and a leader In athletic circles, being captain of the 1908 hockey team, but perhaps her greatest prominence In college has come from her dramatic talents. In her freshman year Miss Mllhol land took the part of Romeo in Shakes peare's tragedy, which was presented as the Fourth Hall play In May, 190. For a freshman to assume a leading part in a hall play Is considered a great privilege, and Mies Mllholland wag the heroine of the day. Since then she has appeared In "In a Balcony," and other dramatic productions at Vas. sar. When acting Miss Mllholland puts her whole soul Into her work, and displays the grace and strength of a finished artist. Her stage appear ance and her rich voice cause her fel-low-studenta to fall in love with her when she appears in masculine parts, which are her forte. 1 X rOXORBte-alAy w. B. EI.IJS.
