MUST PAY UP
TwO-THIRDs MORE MONEY TO THE
CHILD.
A Real Estate ENHANCEMENT at
Evansville, Ind.

NEW YORK, Sept. l2.--It is learn
ed that during the last seven years
many bought real estate in Evans
Vile, Ind, of William T. Winsor,
who committed suicide at the Astor
House last Saturday. Winsor gave
warranty deeds for real estate val
ued at $4,000, which he sold in
parcels as he needed the money.
He owned, it is said, only a one
third interest in the lots and as
soon as a guardian or administrat-
or is appointed to take care of the
interest of Winsor's child, Con-
stance, the purchasers Of the
Evansville property will either
have to pay two-thirds of the
purchase price over to Con-
stance or surrender possession OF
the property.
Herbert Andrews, Of this city,
the lawyer who drew Winsor's first
wife's will said: "The first Mrs.
Winsor owned a large amount OF
property in Evansville. She made
a will in favor of her husband on
Septem Der Is, 1886, few days be-
fore her first child, Constance was
born. Under the law in this state
and in Indiana the birth of a
child after the execution of a will
absolutely revokes the will and
the: person dies intestate. Mrs,
Winsor died in 1887 without hav-
ing made a new will. She left
everything to her husband and
fully intended that he should
have everything. have told them
how the birth of the child might
affect the property. The will was
admitted to probate shortly after
Mrs. Winsor died In 1890 in this
city, and l obtained for Mr.. Winsor
a copy for record in Indiana. I'm
der the law of Indiana in such
cases the husband takes one-Jhird
and the children two-thirds. In
the many different sales of proper
ty Winsor made to Evansville
people it is strange that the titles
were not thoroughly searched. The
child, Constance, owns two-thirds
of all the property left to her moth
er in Evansville, while her fathers
deeds are good for only one-third
The lawyers in Indiana who made
the conveyances for Winsor are
liable for the losses which will en-
sue to the purchasers"

A Probable Suit.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Sept. Fit is
probable the city OF Allegheny will
enter suit against the G.. A. r. Ma
tional committee for conspiracy to
defraud and obtain money under
false pretensess. Allegheny claims
to have been done out Of at least
$4,000 in cold cash by the G.. A. r.
people. The turning Of Allegheny's
schoolhouses into free sleeping
quarters has caused the trorble.
Allegheny claims that the G. A. r.
asked the use of her schoolhouses
for sleeping quarters during the
encampment. This was cheerfully
acceded, and it is claimed that the
G.. A. r. committee estimated the
cost of fixing up the school houses
at S., 900, and proposed that if Ale
gheny should donate $500 the G.
A. r. would furnish the additional
thousand and fix the schoolhouses.
This $1,000 was'given by Allegheny,
so it is claimed, and the G. A. r.
set to work.

OLD LAND MARK
OF NORTHERN ILLINOIS DESTROYED
BY FIRE.
Story How a Little Girl Fought to
Save a Hair Ornament.

PRINCETON, ILL.,, Sept. l2.-One of
the old land marks of Northern
Illinois was destroyed by fire early
this morning. 1t was situated nine
miles north of this city and was
the first house erected by white
man in this neighborhood OF the
state. 1t was located on the old
Dixon trail and was known to eve-
~ one who had travelled on this
road, which was during early
times the principal highway to the
northwest. Near this site, before
the Black Hawk war, lived John
Dimmick and his family, who were
told by the old Chief Shabbona
just before the war broke out, to
make their way as rapidly as posi-
BILE to Princeton, where a block
house had been erected as defense
against Indian attacks. This they
did and of course, saved their lives.
Not so, however, with the family Of
Rev. John Hall, who lived in the
old house. They only laughed at
the old chief, who had so often be-
friended his palefaced neighbor,
when no told them to flee for their
lives. When the raid came a few
days later all members of the FAM
lily were massacred except little
girl who fought so bravely for a
hair ornament which she possessed
that the Indians were struck with
her courage and spared her life.
The father, mother and another
daughter were take to the edge OF
the timber one mile north of Prime
ton, where they were burned at the
stake. A cemetery was later To-
Gated on this spot in honor of his
memory. The old house was after
wards owned by DR.. Collins, but has
not been inhabited except by a
few wood choppers for few
months since old Mr.. Collins was
found dead there about 10 years
ago. 1t is now likely that the
scene of early struggles on many
occasions with an uncivilized foe
will soon be covered with field Of
corn and no trace left of the old
place which was once so familiar.
TheEarly Settlers association, how
ever, have a movement on foot to
mark the place with a monument.

G. A. R. SESSION.
woman's Relief Corps and Daugh-
ters of Veterans Assemble
Diamonds Presented
Adams Wife on
His Staff,


PITTsBURG, September 12.-.Del-
egates to the National Encamp-
ment of the Grand Army got
down to business this morning.
The communicating and del.
egates were welcomed on behalf
of the state and cities of Pittsburg
and Allegheny, by the respective
chief officials.
The election for COMMANDMENTS
chief will not be held until tomor-
row; also the selection of the next
encampment city. Col. l. n. Walk
err, of Indiana, and Louisville, Ky,
lead in the respective contests.
The Women's Relief Corps of the
G. A. r. and Daughters Of Veterans
also began business sessions today.
The staff of retiring Commander
in. Chief Adams presented him, last
night, with a badge studded with
diamonds combining the past COM
mander's insignia, corps badge and
grand army. Mrs. Adams was also
honored, being elected an honorary
member Of the staff and remem-
bered with a diamond souvenir.
Before the national encampment
began work, Commander Adams
was presented by the citizens Of
Pittsburg and Allegheny with a
gavel made of wood from Forts Sum
ter, Appomattox, Gettysburg and
Libby Prison, bound with metal
from historic cannon.
Reports of national officers were
then read. Commander Adams
showed a net membership of $685.
0S4 against 1928 a year ago. The
relief expenses for the year were
$203,7S6.
He urged the strengthening Of
the Sons OF Veterans society to
take the place Of the decreasing
Grand Army. Complaint was
made of the policy of the pension
office as being narrow and illebral.
The inspector generals report
says posts of the Grand Army
property are valued at Sl,llS, 1856,
besides which, they have general
funds aggregating $753,65l and re-
lief fund aggregating $4,000.
The report of the committee on
legislation was devoted to COM
plants of veterans not being given
the preference they should have
in the public employment.

All Nations do Honor to the Mem
ory of the French Nobleman.
LoNDoN,Sept. 12.--Crowds Of peo-
pie from daybreak today COM
menced winding their way to
Stone Hall, the English residence
OF the late Comte De Paris, to make
an attempt to view the remains,
which reposed in state in the hand
some marble hall of his late home.
A large number passed silently
and uncovered before the bier, in
Guiding all classes and degrees, ma
tionalities and creeds. The nota-
bilities, who went to the Stowe
house, included official or unoffi-
cial representatives of nearly all
nations of the world and nearly
every reigning family in Europe.
Almost countless numbers Of
floral wreaths arrived at the Stowe
House yesterday and this morning,
among them very handsome tri-
butte sent by Mrs. Geo. B. McClel-
Ian, widow Of Gen. Mcclellan, up
on whose staff the Comte Paris
served for time during the civil
war.
The family of the dead Comte
assembled around the bier at 6 80
O'clock and after mass was cele--
brated by Father Cofferata, the
casket was covered with pail of
violet velvet, over which the tri-
color flag of France was laid, and
removed into the hearse. Then the
princes, all in evening dress, took
their places, according to rank, and
the casket was borne to the funeral
train amid profound silence. The
funeral train reached Weybridge'
at noon and the procession marched
to the old church where the body
was met at the door by the Bishop
of Southwark, attended by the
minor clergy. The religious cere-
mony was very solemn and after
they were concluded the ,casket.
was deposited in the vault.
