TO PROTECT WILLS.
A Connections Judges Plan For Carrying
out u Tcstator's Wishes.

The only practical and simple scheme
for the prevention of attacks on wills Is
that proposed by Judge John II. White of
Hartford and defeated by the legislature
of 1895. 1t provides that every person on
making will may deposit 1t with u legal
officer, who shah give public notice that u
will has been so offered, and that all who
wish to attack the capacity of the tcstator
shall have u certain time i'm which to offer
evidence and bring the matter to dcci-
sion. If no objection to the tcstator's ca
pncity is made within tho time specified,
the will cannot be attacked on that ground
after his death.
The contents of the will are not dis
closed even to its custodian. No one has
any ground to attack 1t because he is left
out or gets less than he thinks he should
have. Evidently people will think twice
about attacking the testamentary capacity
of u man who is thereto defend himself,
especially when they are uncertain how he
has devised his property and may be bit
ing off their own noses. As Mr.. Swivellcr
remarked about the rooms at Bevis Marks,
"The contingent advantages are extraor
binary" Under this law there would be
no premium ON will breaking.
The proposed law does not require any
one to deposit his will 1t merely gives to
every person an opportunity TO make sure
that his intentions regarding his property
shall be carried out and "a growing scandal
diminished
Another idea is that the legislature pass
an act directing the judge in his charge to
the jury in cases of will contests, to in
struct them as to the weight of evidence
and the verdict that is demanded by the
law. These will cases present questions of
law about which the judge knows more
than the jury, and we can conceive 90 30
more infamous practice than that of bry>.S-
ing will on technical points whcn inc
intent of the testator :! clear. something
should be done to 5top this continued and
growing raid upon wills Hartford Times.

While London justly prides itself with

This is in the nCighhorhood of kensing

Of 3,74O, where the death rate is actual
~ just over 90 per 1000, or just four
times as great as the mortality in South

as the southeast central district of the

THE HEALTHY WOMAN.

Aside from form or features she
has an attractiveness all her own.
The bloom on her check, the elias.
ITCHY in her step, the ring of her
voice, her enjoyment of life-all
these are magnets which draw others
to her side. Wonderful and vau-
able as it is, health is not so difficult
thing to obtain us some discour-
aged ones think. Most of the trou-
bles of women arise from impure
blood, impaired nutrition and low
vitality. Modern science furnishes
the most successful of remedies for
this condition-namely, WampoIe's
Preparation. 1t contains the flesh
building and nourishing properties
of Cod Liver Oil Without its nau-
seOuS taste and smell the Hypophos-
phites and the Extracts of Malt and
Wild Cherry Bark. Taken before
meals it improves the appetite,
makes fat, restores vitality, enriches
the blood and cures those weak
nesses peculiar to the sex, which
are the seat of their troubles. 1t is
blessing to tired wives, nursing
mothers and girls growing into
womanhood.

Electric
Company.

The cleanest, brightest safest and really,
in the long run, the cheapest and best light
for use in the family residence is the mean
descent electric light. Safe; nothing could
be safer. A few days ago prominent gem
tleman of Honolulu came rushing down to
the office of the Electric Company and said:
"Give me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once; no more lamps for me.
Last night lamp tipped over and it came
so near setting fire to the house and burning
my children and take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite number in
the past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.
just think it over and make up your mind
that you want the best and safest light send
for the Hawaiian Electric Company and tell
them what you want.
We have complete stock of everything in
this line and have just received lot of the

were hardly worth watching, and that
there was only one peril to be guarded
against-being caught without wheat
when the rally began. They had a
large following. The falling off in the
export demand surprised and disap-
pointed the bull leaders and brought
the advance to a standstill. 1t showed
those who had been SO very confident
that there was something in the prob
lem they had not mastered. The effect
was demoralizing.
A big short interest would be as
promising for future developments as
a concentrated long line. 1t does not
exist. st. Louis had wheat out through
the winter, but it has had its disap
pCintments. The war scare disturbed
the calculations of the bears, and next
the crop damage claims.
Just now the trade is down to dis
cussing the possibilities of the May
July difference. The new crop future
was sc discount early in February The
damage claims advanced it to within
1c of May. 1t is popular, though, to
buy May and sell July. The argument
is that July cannot get more than
1@2c over May, so that there is a
limit to loss in that direction. While
there are all sorts of temporary pos
sihilities on the side of a May premium,
one can go back a good many years
without finding any May premium
when the May delivery day arrived.
OF wheat on it's merits, as it is term
ed, no one knows very much. The
crop situation so far is altogether a
guess. That the foreign necessities
are also a matter Of doubt is proved
by the experience of those who suppos
ed they knew all about the foreign
situation. The state crop reports will
begin to come along in less than fort
night

CITIZEN TRAINS CHILDREN.
They Grow Up and Send Their Little
Ones to- See Him.


Citizen George Francis Train said
the other day that he often takes on
his knee three generations of children,
and sees no reason why. in some cases,
he should not take four, says the New
York Press. Talking about Mrs De la
Mar who was Nellie Sands, the we'll
known society belle, he said that she
was his little friend, when as a child
she used to talk to him in Madison
square. He meets all the children who
go there on fine days, and Nellie was
one of his favorites. In due time she
became twelve years of age, after
which they are not children to him,
and he drops them from his list of init
mates, although he retains friendship
for them all their lives, if he considers
them worthy of it.
He lost sight of her for some years,
and one day she met him in the park.
and came forward to greet him. He
put his hands behind him, and said,
gently:
Nellie, you know 1 never shake
hands, and you are too old for me to
take on my knee. You are a young
woman now, wearing long frocks. Still,
l am glad to see you looking so we'll"
Time passed, and on bright after
noon nursemaid. in her white cap
and apron, led toward him a baby
just able to walk.

Permission being granted by the super

climbed a spiral stairway of about 100
steps to the tower. This, however, did
not seem to satisfy Mr. Learmann.
He wanted to go higher, and the party
again started to climb a narrow stair

LONDON MARKETS.
American Stocks Generally Slightly

LONDON, March 21-The money market
during the last week was comparatively easy.
The unsettled condition of politics in Eastern
Europe and the Transvaal keeps the volume
of business on the stock exchange very small
and the markets are unusually sensitive.
On the whole however, prices prevailing dur
ing the latter part of the week indicated
greater confidence, and there is little doubt
that If Greece yields to the powers promptly
there will be sharp rises all around The
home securities favored for investment pur-
poses all show frmer figures, and foreign
securities have improved under orders to

is BEATEN by A LOVE AFFAIR.
Women of Kansas City, Kas., Vote
Against Candidate for Mayor.

KANSAS CITY, Mo, March BOB
Kas., who was a candidate before the
Republican primary election for mayor
for that city yesterday afternoon, was
beaten in the race on account of a love
affair. MIR Short has been city clerk
for six years, and is known as a good
official. Many expected him to win,
but the women defeated him They
voted almost solidly against him.
According to the story. Mr.. Short
had been attentive to Miss Sadie Par
sons for over twelve years, and had
been engaged to marry her. Mr.. Short
called upon her one evening last fall
and they talked over their engagement,
and. it is said, had determined upon the
date for their marriage. The second
evening thereafter Mr.. Short was
quietly married to Mrs. Grace Fire
stone, who had been divorced from her
first husband. Miss Parsons was al
most beside herself with grief when
she heard of the affair. and told her
story without reluctance. 1t was
splendid campaign material for Mr.
Shorts opponents. It proved particu-
larry effective among 30 of Miss Par
sons teacher friends, IS it is said they
voted solidly against him. Thirty-fiYe
more votes would have elected Short
if he could have secured them MANY
women went about in hacks and bug
gies, and spared no effort to see that
every woman voted. Short was a fav-
Orite with the men. because they rea-
lized that ne had made a good city
clerk and believed he would make a
good mayor.

CHICAGO, March 21-The Times

There is nothing in the wheat pit now
TO very much stir anybody. There is
no exciting contest on. There is never
wanting, of course, some sort of a con-
fict between the spectators of differ
ent views, but it is a slow affair at the
moment-winter campaigning, with no
serious operations under way but with
a good deal of talk about what is to
be done when activity is possible. TTD
to a few weeks ago there were several
large long lines in existence, which
suggested the probability of interest
Ing developments. These do not exist
any longer, certainly not on the scale

do not mean much to him. All these

who can open or close large interests
in a twinkling. Up to thirty days ago
