In Michigan they have law by which a
man can have his will admitted to probate
before he dies. All persons interested as
expectant heirs or otherwise must then
question the testator's sanity or forever af-

probate during the life of the maker cannot
be contested after his death on the ground
of his alleged incapacity.

n of poet and Of sage

The pen of poet and OF sage
Records the deeds of valor done,
And history teens on every page
With victories won.
With joyful hand we rear the shaft
In memory of the gallant brave;
Affections tear by Friendship shed
Falls on their grave.
We Irvine the laurel round the brow
or him who died in search of fame;
In humble reverence we bow
At his great name.
But in the struggle and the strife
For riches, honor and renown,
We heed him not whose lowly life
Brings him no crown.
The flower with careless feet we tread,
May fill the air with sweet perfume,
So virtue may, when life has fed,
Adorn the tomb.
What struggles and defeat
We read in every passing face,
In lines that Time with all his power
Can meier erase.
Oh, there are heroes in the throng
That daily press the crowded street,
Who tread LIES pathway, firm and strong,
With willing feet.
VINO conQuerS SELL on, fearful TASK,
To him whose passions rage within,
Hate. Malice, Envy, all the fiends
And hosts of sin.
And there are those whose hidden grit
Is like a weight OF added years,
The troubled spirits sole relief
A food of tears.
Yet they plod on, nor friends nor foe
Knows OF the battle in the breast,
Nor hears the whisper, soft and low,
The sigh for rest.
Not all earth's heroes sleep beneath
The marble shaft, the sculptured stone,
Nor proudly wear the laurel wreath;
But some, unknown,
Pursue their wonted ways Of life,
Careless of honor's vaunted tone;
Theirs, when grim death shall end the strife
The great white Throne.

More Bodies Found-The Total Num-
ber or Victims Between 75 and so.
MILWAUKEE,, January 1S.-Two bodies and
several small pieces of remains were re-
covered from the ruins this forenoon, max
ing As in all. OF these four have been iden-
titled since the search began, which, with
the 10 originally at the morgue, makes %
identified dead and 81 in all. The search
will be finished to morrow. Sheriff Beatty,
who accompanied Scheller, returned from
Madison this morning, refusing Information
of any kind. The reason is very strong Of
Scheller being in the Dane county Jail. The
District Attorney stated to the Press agent
that Scheller's preliminary examination
cannot be held until after the inquest is
finished, which will take fully week.
In the absence of the statement promised
by Landlord Autisdel to the Press it is
positively impossible to figure at the num-
Der of bodies yet in the ruins. 1t is SUP
posed TO be from twelve to fifteen, which
would make the total number OF victims
from seventy.tive to eighty.
The list of saved embraces l02 names.
Taking Chief Clerk TiceS statement OF ll0
guests and 81 employees in the hotel at the
time Of the fire for granted, these figures
leave four unaCCounted for, who are pre-
sumably in the mines.
Tue most damaging evidence in connec-
tiOn with SCheller's arrest came to light
to-day. On the dav before the fire SCheller
removed a part of the stock of liquors from
the Newhall House bar-rOom to his private
residence. The stock so removed is valued
at 800. The insurance agents have done
nothing toward adjustment of Soheller' s
policies since his arrest, but surprising de-
velopments are expected. Insurance men
now openly assert that Scheller's stock was
worth hardly one half the insurance.
