Mrs. Kitty Gales viii.

The object of the visit of Mitchell
Harris and p. M. Troy to Shelton on
Thursday evening was to have the
will of the late Mrs. Kitty Gale ad.
mitted to probate in the Mason County
superior court. Mrs. Gale and her
husband had separated some time be.
fore her death and a division of the
property was agreed upon. In the
will Mitchell Harris is named as exec
utor and by its terms everything is
left to the two children of the deceas-
ed. She was of Indian birth and was
a good mother to her children. The
estate consists of so acres of first-class
oyster land, which is said to weld
about $500 per year revenue, and is
valued at from $500 to $500 per acre:
also about 40 acres of upland real es-
tate of lesser value.-Olympian.
The will of the late Mrs. Kitty Gale.
referred to in yesterdays Olympian.
is likely to get into court, if the state
ments of the attorney of Joseph Gale.
her husband. are to be taken seriously
Mrs. Gale in her will named Mitchell
Harris as executor, and he was to adj
minister the estate without bonds and
as far as possible without the inter-
terance OF the courts. Mr.. Gales at
torney, George Israel, does not intend
to contest the provisions of the will as
far as it relates to the requests of the
deceased, but it is against the execu-
tor that the opposition is aimed. Mr..
Israel asserts he can prove by two per-
sons that Mrs. Gale on her deathbed
stated that she desired ner husband to
administer the estate and did not want
Mr.. Harris services. On this ground,
therefore, as soon as Mr.. Harris files
his oath of acceptance of the trust
Joseph Gale, the husband. will put up
a fight to be named in the place of Mr..
Harris. The case will be heard in
Mason county, where the estate of the
deceased is ated.-Olympian.

A Yakima Man Skins the Indians.

AS with almost everything else yester-
day, the weather had rather deterrent
effect on the attendance at the horse race
at Woodland park although quite num-
Der went out from this city on their wheels
AS was before stated, there we're two en-
tries. A man from Yakima entered Skag
way Nell, and a Nesqnally Indian entered
Sleepy Tom, the result of the race being
that the Yakima man took the Indians into
camp; in other words, the Indians horse
was beaten. The Yakima man seemed to
be onto his job. He was ready to make
all kinds of bets on his horse, starting at
even bets and then offering two to one,
and finally betting two to one that there
would be daylight between the two horses,
with his horse ia the lead. The stranger
made one mistake, however. He should
have postponed his visit until after hop
picking time and he would have gotten all
the money the Indians had. AS it was
they did not have much, but what they
had he got his horse at the finish of the
race being two lengths in the lead. The
race was quarter-mile dash, and it is
which, if true, is pretty good running
The purse yesterday consisted of two
horses and $2o but on Saturday there is
to be another match race for purse" OF
ten horses. For this race the Yakima man
says he will enter work horse, and the
Indians will run one of their heetest.
Those who watched yesterdays proceed
ings say that the ''work-horse" will again
skin the Indian pony and his hackers
