The will makes a distribution Of all
property among the children, a son and
Two daughters. The old gentleman died
in 1895 and was worth good deal Of
money at the time Of his death. but, as
Mrs. Schulze IS still living, it is a puz-
zIing question to know whether the vii
is In effect or not OF course there is no
provision made for MRS. Schuize. as she
is one OF the parties to the will, yet at
the same time the property evidently be-
longed to Mr.. SchuIze and 10 mention is
made OF his wife in the first paragraph.
The original will was filed in the pro-
bate court Of Jackson county, III. and

KNEW He WAS CRAZY
insane Man Hunts His Way
Into Jail.
He HAD ABOUT $40
Begged Sheriff Simmons to
Lock Him Up.

A new kind Of a crazy man appeared
in Wichita yesterday about noon. The
new thing about this man was that he
was crazy and knew it. A few minutes
after L o'clock yesterday the man
walked in through the back door of the
dwelling part Of the jail and went to
the dining room where the sheriff and
his family were eating dinner. The fell
low had one hand full Of silver coins
and in the other hand had quite a roll
Of bills and had the appearance Of be
ing somewhat dazed. When he came in
Mr.. Simmons arose from the table and
asked him IL there was anything he
wanted. The intruder looked at Mr..
Simmons a moment and then said: Are
You the boss2" The sheriff replied that
he was and the man then said: I'm
crazy I want you to take my money
and lock me up" All right" said the
sheriff, Just come in the Office and III
count your money and give you a receipt
for + and then you can be locked up
When the money was counted It was
found that it amounted to 1885,. Mr.
Simmons then asked the man his name
and he said II was Henry F. Marx and
that he lived here and had q brother
here
Mr. Simmons went on asking him
questions and found out that he had
been drinking some but that he was not
In the habit Of boozing. The man also
told the sheriff that ne had taken two
or tRree drinks with some other rnen. and
then commenced TO have a funny feel
ing in his head. Re then started away.
but the fellows had kept after MIN ana
he made out that. they were after his
money and thought that he had better
put himself in safe k-c7ing and so had
come TO the jail
There seemed to be nothing the mat
ter with the man except that ne appeared
dazed and stupid. Nj Simmons at once
came to the conclusion that the fellow
had been drugged by some one who was
trying TO get possession Of his money.

true, to So, 900 900 a year. But, having
established the practice and recognized
the principle why is not all American

1t would be well for the Republican
leaders at Washington to pause at this

made of their new lease of influence.
Congress has been in session one week.
Yet some of the most conspicuous of the
party leaders. instead of devoting their
iabors to the enactment. first of ALL of
the few measures imperatively demand

selves to various money spending enter

the nation than TO that Of certain indi-
