The Doctors proposition is very feasible and
it is very shrewd. Such a movement would
end the talk of removing or consolidating
the university, which is now very rife in view
of the destruction of the main building.

AN HEIRESS TO MILLIONS.
Romantic Story of the Daughter of a
New York Millionaire.
Marriage of Peter Goelet in Parke County,
Indiana-His Daughter Still
Living There.


Special to the Indianapolis Journal
M~oNTEzUMA, Ind, July 29-The name of
Peter Goelet the eccentric New York mil
llonaire is to be connected with an Indiana
1omance. Wilson S. Wolf, a New York law
yer, who visited Parke county and left on
Saturday night for his home, is in possess
ion of facts that will not only show that Mr..
Goelet was married, but that he left an heir
to the $23, 900, 900 or $24, 900, 900 he left at his
death and which passed to his brothers. He
was one of the oddities of New York, and
for many years lived in a quaint
old-tashioned, two story, brick
house on Broadway, where he insisted
upon keeping up the appearance of a
small farm, keeping a COW, geese, chickens
and other rural adornments 1t has
come to light that Peter
Goelet lived in Parke county, Indiana,
from 1874 to 1913, where he folio wed the vo-
cation of a trader, and that about the year
1916 he married there, his wife bearing him
a daughter in January, 1S47. The wife died
about three months after the birth of this
child, and Mr.. Goelet, a little later, removed
to New York city, leaving the child with a
Mr.. McElwee. Mr.. McElwee, it appears, be-
came much attached to the little girl, and to.
keep her induced the father to believe that
she had died. In this way he retained the
child until she grew to womanhood and
married George Myers, a resident of Parke
county. Mr.. Goelet, believing his child
dead, never came back to Parke county nor
made any inquiries concerning her. Nor
was the fact of his great wealth known until
recently, when Mrs. Elwee, hearing of the
immense fortune that by right be-
longed to her adopted daughter, had
inquiries made through the New York at
torney,. Mr.. Wolf, who, having fully ex-
amined into the case, is now in possession of
facts which will substantiate the claim that
Mrs, Meyers is the heir to all of Peter GoA-
let's millions, Mrs. Meyers has received an
invitation from her u%ncles, the Goelet broth
ers, to visit New York, andis arranging to go
there in about ten days. There will be no
opposition to her claim if the facts are set
forth plainly and beyond dispute, and she
will be allowed to enter upon the possession
of her inheritance with but little delay.

ENGLAND has made a formal protest against
the return of three paupers recently landed
in his country, who, it is claimed, would
have been met and cared for by friends had
they not been returned. The matter is under
investigation, and the final determination
will hinge upon the fact as to whether they
were paupers and liable to become public
charges. If not, under present treaty stipu-
lation, they were improperly sent away.

CHIEF JUSTICE OKEY, of the Ohio Supreme
Court, has filed his opinion on the Scott
~liquor-tax Jaw. He holds it to be, in effect,
a license, and hence unconstitutional. In
the meantime, with four judges upholding
the law, the measure has brought into the
public treasury nearly two million dollars,
relieving other business and property of just
that amount of taxation to pay the expenses
incident to the liquor traffic.

IF the marrriageable men of st. Louis do not
know who the wealthy and altogether lovely
young women of that city are it is because they
do not read the home papers. One enterprising
sheet lately published a directory, giving the
names, ages, and present and prospective in
comes of the resident heiresses, together with
such descriptions of their personal appearance
as would naturally interest bachelors having a
view to matrimony. In order not to be outdone
in a display of public spirit, another journal is
getting up a "beauty" competition. A coupon
ticket is printed IN the paper, which each reader
is requested to cut out and fill up with the name
of the Handsomely woman in st. Louis. The
ticket is to be returned to the office, and in due
time the result will be announced. This little
scheme, while simultaneously advertising the
newspaper and the various bellies, will undoubt-
eddy he productive of great harmony in social
circles by settling definitely what must now be
a matter of dispute.
