A Class of Twenty Candidates Initi-
ated Last Night.

The Indiana State Grange closed its meet
ing last night with the initiation of a class
of twenty candidates. Throughout the day
the sessions were carried on behind closed
and locked doors and little is known of what
was done in detail. 1t was announced how
ever, that the secret sessions resulted i'm the
passage of many resolutions, as follows:
That agriculture should be taught in the
schools OF the State, and that the legislative
committee should use all it's influence to-
ward the enactment of law providing for
this; that the Office of county assessor is un-
necessary and should be abolished, and the
work of that functionary should be done by
the County Board of Equalization; that
truant effioers should be done away with
and the work of keeping the children in
school be given TO the township trustee:
that rural free mail delivery is desirable, and
that the committee shall use its influence
to secure it,
IL was suggested TO the committee that
the farmers of the State should have access
to the state library and that arrangements
should be made whereby parties of ten or
more could take out books, good security
being given for all books. 1t was further
suggested that closer relations should be
brought about between the farmers with a

JONATHAN FRANKEM'S WILL
His Two sons Cut on with Five Dol
lars Each.

Jonathan Frankem, who died in this city
on Dec. and left an estate valued at $l0.-
600, left one of the most remarkable wills
ever offered for probate in this county. The
will left the entire fortune to his wife Anna,
and named her, with Philip NJ Hildebrand,
executors. There are two sons, Augustus II.
Frankem, of Harrisburg, Pa, and Isaac l..
Frankem, of this city. The two sons are
cut off with S. each. The will contains an
item devoted to each of them and says that
they are bequeathed this amount because
they have been wholly lacking in duty re-
spect and affection for their father and
mother. The will claims that the sons have
treated their parents in IL most shameful
manner and have shown no interest in their
parents
Since the date of the will Oct 26, 1894,
Mrs Frankem has died and under the terms
of the will the property would have gone
TO the grandchildren. Harry r., Kate and
Anna Rowe. Isaac Frankem filed a protest
against the probating of the will, alleging
that his father was of unsound mind when
it was made The protest was sustained by
Probate Commissioner Walker and the will
will not be admitted to probate at tnls time.
