§58-1002.
   
   If property is so disposed of that the right of a beneficiary to
   succeed to any interest therein is conditional upon his surviving
   another person, and both persons die, and there is no sufficient
   evidence to establish that the two have died otherwise than
   simultaneously, the beneficiary shall be deemed not to have survived.
   If there is no sufficient evidence to establish that two or more
   beneficiaries have died otherwise than simultaneously and property has
   been disposed of in such a way that at the time of their death each of
   such beneficiaries would have been entitled to the property if he had
   survived the others, the property shall be divided into as many equal
   portions as there were such beneficiaries and these portions shall be
   distributed respectively to those who would have taken in the event
   that each of such beneficiaries had survived.
