GRANT CASES
ARE DECIDED.
Circuit Court Gives Its Opinion
On This Long Controversy
RUTH GRANT LOST ALL AROUND
While the Creditors OF j. j. Grant Score A
victory--Costs Assessed Against
Ruth Grant-wil BE Several
Bundred Dollars.

The decision in the Grant cases that
term arrived by mail Thursday morn
ing from the court that has been sitting
at GAINESVILLE. The decisions all around
are a victory for j. J. Grant and his
creditors as against his mother, Ruth
Grant and his brother, Venzo Grant.
In the case of Ruth VS.. ]. J. Grant
ct al. the court found that Ruth Grant
had refused the will of William c.
Grant, her husband and elected to take
under the law; that she had given a
deed to J. j. Grant of her dover interest
in the farm he got from the estate for
which she got his quit claim to the in
terest he had in the farm Of Venzo
Grant; that the title in the farm there
fore should rest entirely and freely in
]. ]. Grant; that the mortgages Of Eliz-
abeth Baker and the Dime Savings bank
had been signed by Ruth Grant and
were without fraud or anything else
to make them void and should stand as
just claims against the farm: that the
mortgage given by j. ]. Grant to M.
c. Barber and A. ". Smith was also a
valid claim; that the judgment of the
Farmers bank for 1910 against ]. ].
Grant was good and should come out
of the property. The court adjudged
that when the farms is sold the claims
shall be paid in line of the priority and
that Ruth Grant shall be stopped from
asserting any claim against the estate
ahead Of these claimants. Ruth Grant
is also ordered to pay the costs.
In the case of A. NJ. McCarty, as ad-
ministrator de bonis non of Frank Mich
OILS against Hugh D. Brown as guardian
of Horce Grant, Henry w. Hossler as
administrator de bonis non of William
c. Grant, Ruth Grant and Venzo Grant,
the court also decided. This was
companion case to the other and both
were argued at the same time.
The court estopped Ruth Grant from
asserting any claim against the estate
of William c. Grant that will interfere
with or compel a contribution from the
estate of Horace Grants estate which
should go to ]. ]. Grant. Hugh d.
Brown Is ordered to pay to Henry Hoss-
Ter all Of Horace Grants estate left
after paying the dover Of Ruth Grant
as agreed upon before and the payment
Of $2,100 to William c. Grants estate as
agreed upon. After Hossler gets this
money he is to pay 1t to A. M. McCarty
as administrator Of Frank McNichols
on his claim Of s1,15O and to Ruth Grant
on her claim Of $1,000 pro rata.
Under this decision the money arising
from the farm, which is to be sold on
May Is by the sheriff, will be distributed
unless the case is carried up to the
supreme court.

Falling hair is sick hair.
1t is hair that has lost its lustre, its
strength, it's vitality.
The cause Of its sickness is a parasite
that is destroying its root.
Just as the grub. working at the root
of your favorite plant ,saps its life until
1t withers and dies, SO can parasite in
the hair follicle rob your hair Of its
nourishment until, for want Of strength
and vitality, It comes out in your comb.
The work Of the parasite is far more
destructive than that Of the grub, for
while the latter simply kills the roots
of the one plant, the former not only
destroys one hair root but spreads from
hair to hair till it attacks all
the hair on your mead, and your
hair literally comes out in combfuls
This Parasite Is not visible to the naked
eye, but under powerful microscope
such hairs as are attacked by 1t have
the appearance Of telegraph poles load
ed down with brush heaps.
This Is no unusual sight at the Hair
and Scalp Institute. In fact, 1t Is seen
there every day in the microscopical
examinations Of hair. But as people
give little heed to dangers that are un-
seen. this danger Is often permitted to
exist until the continuous falling of the
hair results in premature badness.
There was time when this head Of
hair could have been saved, 1t was
when the hair first began falling; when
the result Of the daily toilet was a
handful Of combings and the comb look
ed like the one In the illustration shown
above-while there was still nourish-
ment in. the scalp, and when all that
was needed was a preparation that
would destroy the cause Of the disease
and assist nature in repairing the dam
age already done.s c

Racers at Broadway Rink.

Chicago Woman StiH Leads the
Racers at Broadway Rink.
Lizzie Claw finished first again last
night in the Wonen's seven night bicycle
race at the Broadway rink.
The racing last night was very spirited
at times. Olsen took a chance al one time
last night and made as clean a squirt as
was ever made. but only held the lead for
a few minuts, however, when Miss Claw
made one of her fast spurts, and took the
lead again. There seems to be tendency
on the part Of Farnsworth and CLAW,
however to freeze Olsen out of the race
and it looks very much as If they were in
a combine to try and block her way and
keep her from finishing first.
Miss Hokenson was In better condition
last night and only lost.o lap. At one
time during the evening she made very
plucky squirt and for q while it looked as If
she would take the lead but she fell short
in her endeavor and was forced to take
her regular place In the race again
At the end of the first half hour last
night. the riders were grouped as follows.
all with nine miles and twelve laps to
their credit: Olsen first. Claw second,
Farnsworth third. Ward fourth Hokenson
fifth.
The riders finished the first hour as fol-
lows Olsen first, nineteen miles and three
laps; CLAW second, nineteen miles and
three laps; FarnSWorth third, nineteen
miles and three laps; Ward fourth, nine
teen miles and three laps: Hokenson fifth,
nineteen miles and two laps.
Ward made only one squirt during the
evening and succeeded in holding first
place for about five minutes, when CLAW
and Farnsworth passed her.
Miss Hokenson was again taken off the
track five minutes before the finish last
night In order to give the leaders more
Of Ieeway for an exciting finish.
The total score at the finish of last
nights race for the three nights was CLAW
first, eighty-dve miles and eleven laps;
Farnsworth second. eighty-five miles and
eleven laps; Olsen third, eighty-five miles
and eleven laps; Ward fourth, eighty-ffve
miles and eleven laps; Hokenson fifth.

COnsigneea of Wares to Manila May
Tr0nsgrese Regulations.


SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. IA free
translation OF regulations recently promul-
gated In Manila indicates that innocent
consignees of wares from this country
may be heavily fined for not following q
provision that certain wares must be in
voiced to show the weight with and with
out casing Copies Of the regulations have
only just reached this city. Goods are on
the way that started for Manila before
there was any knowledge obtainable here
that new legal conditions were to be met.
This fact has led certain prominent bust
ness men in San Francisco to enter into
correspondence with Secretary of War
Root, and also with the officials at Manila,
making protests and asking for relief
MATTER UNDER CONSIDERATION.
WASHINGTON, Aug. lit is stated at
the war department that some complaints
have been received from San Francisco
merchants and shippers regarding the new
Philippine tariff, and that such complaints
are referred to the authorities In Manila
for-investgation and correction. Officials
here say there is no doubt that some tech
meal faults exist In the tariff, but the war
department Will not undertake to make
corrections here without sufficient know
ledge of existing conditions in the Philip
pines.
At present there is a board Of officers
in the Philippines making a thorough
examination of the tariff, and it Is ex-
pected that a revision will be recommend
ed by this board which will correct the
technical irregularities as well as make
changes in the interests of American ship
pers.
Under the peace treaty, Spain and all
other countries are entitled to the same
tariff rates as the United States, but there
Is movement on foot to reduce the rates
on all goods which are manufactured in
the United States and with which other
nations do compete This Will give the
United States large advantages in the
Philippines. While the Manila board Is
acting upon suggestions from Washington
1t will be governed largely upon the neces-
stiles of the island in reframing the tar
III regulations.
