An exciting runaway occurred on
Prairie avenue last evening. A farm
er, whose name could not be learned,
had gone into a residence along the
street and left his horse and wagon
standing near the curb. The train
came along and the horse became
frightened and ran away. When he
reached the railway track he stumbled
and fell and one of the thi11s caught
under the rails. In his effort to release
himself the animal wrecked the wagon,
but he escaped uninjured.
DIR. Paul Ma1stron1, of this city, has
been refused a 1icence to practice med
icine in this state, by the State Board
of Medical examination. No effort has
been made to bring any legal action
against-the doctor, but it is stated that
such an action will follow. The de-
PENDANT in the case reports that he
will meet the fight and will prove that
the state law is at fault. 1t is report
ed that the Chicago Medical College,
of which the doctor is a graduate, will
assist him in making an effort to prove
the law unconstitutional. The case
has great possibilities, and should fur
nish some interesting developments.

ADMITTED TO PROBATE.
Contest of the Will of the Late James C.
McKesson is Settled Out of Court

McKesson is Settled Out of Court
After day of wrang1ing among the
attorneys it is announced this morning
that the contest over the will of the
late James @. McKesson has been set
tied out of court. This morning the
contesting heirs, James c. and Joseph
T. McKesson, through their attorneys
announced that they would withdraw
all the objections to the probate of the
will and later it was admitted to pro-
bate. The arrangement between the
attorneys was reached last evening
and among the interested parties it is
regarded as a victory for the two con-
testing heirs. The stipulation of the
settlement of the contest has been filed
in the county court and provides that
George w. McKesson, the executor of
the will, pay to the two brothers the
sum of 81, 500. Of this amount ]. F.
receives 800 in cash, while the
brother James receives the remainder.
Besides this present in cash the ar
rangement provides that the admis-
sion of the will to probate will dis
charge ali the debts due to the estate
from the contesting heirs. This will
add to their portion of the estate to-
tai of So, 100, as the heirs owed the es-
late this sum of money. In the re-
division of the property the name of
William F. McKesson is not men
toned. However the latter stands
with his brother in the fight and he
will undoubtedly be properly cared for.
