A $4,000 ESTATE IN COURT
THE WILL OF THE LATE CHARLES DURKEE
CONTESTED.
F. W. MATHEWS,
City Clerk

THE WILL OF THE LATE CHARLES DURKEE
CONTESTED
bill was filed in the Supe rior Court at
Chicago last week. by William n. Durkee
and Caroline G. Johnson, of Cincinnati,
Ohio; Mary L. Hendrix. of Rochester, N.Y.;
John Durkee, of Memphis, Tenn. Harriet
L. Blaisdell, of Champaign. ILL., !; George w.
Boardman. of Washington, D. c.. Charles L.
Boardman and Jessie H. Monaghan, of
Grand Forks, D. T., against Franklin H.
Head, of Evanston, Ill Harvey Durkee of
Kenosha. Wis, and Caroline Durkee, of
Washington, D. c.. in which contest is
made over the estate of the late Charles Dur
kee, who died Jan. IA, 1870, at Salt Lake
City, Utah. Of which territory he was citiz.
en-. He left an estate valued at $3.50, 900,
consisting of large amounts of real estate and
personal property in Utah Territory, Cali
fornia and Nevada. He made will in
1869, in which, after making few minor be.
quests, he gave the balance and the bulk
of his estate to his executors in trust 10 be
expended - for the cause of education of the
youth Of both sexes of our common country"
The defendants, F. H. Head and Harvey Dur
kee, we're appointed executors and they
caused the will to be admitted to probate in
Kenosha county, Wis, F H. Head, as exec.
utor, being the petitioner, and the board Of
education of that county and the Widow Dur
kee being defendants. The Kenosha court
held that the bequest in favor of the cause Of
education was imperative and void The
bulk of Charles Durkec's property was there
| fore declared interstate, assuming that all
the intestate property went to the widow
| Durkee as sole heir at-law of her husband,
who left no children surviving him.
| The complainants, as brothers and sisters
of the deceased, now file their bill asking
for share in the intesiate property they
claim that Harvey Durkee. one Of the ex-
ecutors, procured an assignment TO himself
Of all her right and interest in the intestate
/ property, an now claims to own the whole
/ of H. Head, in 1882, was discharged as
sole executor of the estate, and it was not
until then that the conplainants we're able
| to investigate the matter. They claim that
| the Kenosha court was without jurisdiction
in the matter, and Mrs. Durkee's assignment
| to Harvey was fraudulent and void ; thai
the administration of the personal property
should be governed by the laws of Utah
where the deceased had his domicile, and
by which the widow could only take one
third Of the personal property. The rea
estate would be governed by the laws Of tbs
States where it is situated and the widow
| would only inherit ehalf The remainder
of each would therefore 60 to the complainant!
as heirs at law. The defendants are there
fore asked to account for the estate received
by them, and the court is asked to make 8
proper administration of the estate. The
bill is filed by L. s. Blaisdell Of Champaign
as solicitor.

calves A good remedy is scalded milkswith
q little -four cooked in, and the same fed as
warm as the calf will drink it. If oatmeal
porridge is fed it should be cooked for very
young calves and made into thin Cruel and

Dyspepsia is the prevailing malady OF
civilized life. A weak dyspeptic stomach
acts very slowly or not at all on many kinds
of food; gases are extricated, acids are
formed and become source of pain and
disease until discharged. To be dyspeptic
is to be miserable, hopeless, depressed, con-
fused in mind, forgetful, irresolute, drowsy,
weak, languid and useless. 1t destroys the
Teeth, Complexion, Strength, Peace of
Mind and Bodily ease. 1t produces Head
ache, Pain in Shoulders, Coughs Tghtness
