ENGLAND CLAIMS
 TAX OF 92OO,O0O
BRITISH COURT TRYING TO DE- CIDE WHETHER w. L. WlNANS WAS A RESIDENT OF ENGLAND OR THE UNITED STATES.

London, November 19.-Arguments in the appeal of Walter and L. w. Winans against the judgment of Justices Ken nedy and Philmore in November, 1900, in awarding the crown legacy duty on the large estate left by their father, w. l.. Winans, was heard today. The question at issue is whether the deceased was domiciled in England. Judgment will be rendered tomorrow.
 In November last the Lord Chief Jus tices Court in London was occupied in determining whether the late William L.. Winans, formerly of Baltimore, Mary land, was a domiciled resident of Great Britain when he died m iSg7. This ques- tion was tested through legacy of e2O0O willed to MT. Winans' sister-in-law, Ellen D. Larue, on which the crown claimed for the crown and the attorney general remarked that the decision of the court would effect the whole of MT. Winans' millions.
 MT. Winans died in London June 25, 1S97 in his seventy-nfth year. He was born in Baltimore in 1922 and when twenty years of age was sent to Russia to ar range the contracts for furnishing and equippng the railroad between Moscow and St. Petersburg. The road was sue cessfully completed and a large fortune was secured to the Winans family.
 Mir. Winans married an English wom- an in the early forties and settled near London. His personal estate was valued at E2,252C coo. In December, 1897, proof of the registration of the will In England was filed in Baltimore with copy of the will.
 Under the provisions of the finance act of 1894, which almost entirely changed the whole system of British death duties, a graduated rate of estate duty" was to be paid on all estates over the value of G100 MT. Winans estate, under this act. would have to pay duty of a little over 9200.000. Some part of Mir. Winans prop erty. however, was in this country and therefore not chargeable.

BATON TO MARRY TODAY
Killing Was Accidental and Is Deeply Regretted-Hamnn Had Been Snapped Several Times
 Before Gun Fired.

Selma, November 19.-At about half past o'clock this morning Will Baton, who is employed in the repairing depart ment of the Tissier Arms Company. took up a rifle brought to the store yesterday and commenced preparations to clean and repair it.
 It was twenty-two Winchester repeat ing rifle, and as is the custom MT. Bat ton snapped the hammer several times to see how the lock worked. When he snapped it the last time there was a sharp report and Claude Binford. who also worked in the repair department, fell to the floor without a word or groan. MT Baton rushed to him, as did also MT. Fayette Callen, who was standing but two feet from the young man when he fell. A doctor was quickly summoned. but death had resulted almost instantly. The ball entered the head beneath the ear and penetrated the brain.
 A crowd quickly collected and friends took the distracted young man in whose hands the gun was held when the acci- dent occurred to his room and sent for the father of the dead boy, Frank Bin ford.
 The deceased was about IT years old. The shooting was purely an accident. It is peculiarly sad in that tomorrow MT. Baton is to be married.

ANTI-CHAMBERLAIN
 MOVEMENT CROWS
IN SPITE OF REMoNsTRANcEs THE BERLIN VETERANS HOLD A MEETING AND DENoUNcE HIS DIFFERENCES.

Berlin. November 1s.-The anti-Cham. berlain movement in Germany is spread ing. In spite of the remonstrance issued officially by the Deutscher Krieger Bund. the society of veterans of Berlin today held large and enthusiastic meeting of this kind in which the utterances of MT. Chamberlain at Edinburg were heartily denounced.
 Other soldier anti-Chamberlain meet ings are to be held at Cologne, Null helm, Brunswick, Bonn, Celle, etc., and students meetings of a like character will be held at Bonn, Wurzburg, Leipzic. Halle and Munich, while popular meet ings are announced in Bochum and Brunswick and other places.
 Referring to these matters, the Post, speaking semi- i-officially, says the gov ernment sees no reason to identify itself with the vehement uttcrances of irrespon- sitle meetings. or to take action against MT. Chamberlains accusations concern ing the German soldiers, since the lat ter's words at Edinburg were nothing more than the private statement of the British statesman.
 But if the matter is preached in the Reischstag, the Post continues, matters will assume an entirely different course In this event the government would find occasion to expr ess itself hefittingly.

New York, November 19.-Dstrict-At- torney Philbin announced today that he will re-submit to the grand jury this week the cases of Fire Commissioner John Scannell and William l.. Marks, indicted last June, but which indict- ments were dismissed.
 Commissioner Scannell was indicted on the charges of conspiracy and neglect of duty, and Marks on the charge of con- spiracy. A demurrer to the indictment was upheld by Justice Gilderseeve and the indictment dismissed by him, with leave to re-submit.
 The reason for the dismissal of the in- dictment was that Samuel Ordway, who represented the district attorney had not been properly sworn, and was not, there fore, eligible to appear legally before the grand jury. District-Attorney Philbin, to overcome this difficulty and make satis- factory arrangements to push the case without any delay, has appointed Mir. Ordway a statuatory assistant district att torney To make this feasible Assistant District-Attorney John Delaney has tenn DOT arily resigned office to make way for MT. Ordway.

EASY FOOD.
Ready for Instant Use Without Cook.
 ing.

Almost everyone likes a cereal food of some kind at breakfast and supper, but the ordinary way of cooking cereals results in a pasty mass that requires strong digestive power to get along with. and if not properly digested, the raw mass goes down into the intestinal tract where gas Is generated and all sorts of troubles set up.
 Everyone knows that good food prop erly digested keeps the body well, while poor food, or even food of good quality that is poorly prepared and not digested, is sure to bring on some kind of dis ease.
 The easiest food to digest in this line is Grape-Nuts, made from wheat and barley, and cooked thoroughly at the factory, some ten or twelve hours being consumed in the different processes of preparation. The food. therefore. Is ready for instant service and the starch has been changed to Grape Sugar, so that it Is pre-digested and ready for almost immediate assimilation.
 Miss R. E. Phillips, a young lady at 1856 Vernon Ave, Chicago, writes that she suffered tor years from indigestion and dyspepsia from the use of food that was not suitable to her powers of diges- ton.
 She says: q began using Grape Nuts and confess to having had a prejudice. at first, and was repeatedly urged before I finally decided to try the food, but l have not known what indigestion is since using 1t. and have never been stronger or in better health. I have in- creased in weight from 109 to 124 pounds. ''
 People can be well, practically with out cost, if they will adopt scientific food and leave off the indigestible sort.
 Grape Nuts Food Is sold at all first L. I-lt- to the taste. It should be served exactly as it comes from the package. without cooking. except in cases where 1t is made up into buildings and other deserts.

CRACKED. HIS HEAD WITH WH|FFLE TREE Dick Chambers Killed by Tom
 MCLemore ENDING OF PRACTICAL JOKE Chambers Pulled McLemore's Hat Over His Eyes and Jerked Him of the Counter on Which
 He Was Sitting.
ENDING OF PRACTICAL JOKE

Athens, November 19.--A killing occur red at Tick Ridge, in the western part of this county, Saturday afternoon, in which Dick Chambers, farmer, met death at the hands of Tom MeLemore, a young country merchant at that place.
 The trouble occurred in the store of McLemore late in the afternoon and was witnessed by only two or three persons. It is said that Chambers entered the store of McLemore and was drinking. He walked up to McLemore and caught his hat and pulled it down over his face and jerked him off the counter upon which he was sitting, and remarked that he was one of the boys. McLemore, as he arose, caught up a whiffle tree that was lying by the counter and struck Chambers one blow over the head, which fractured his skull and from which he never regained consciousness. No arrests have been made and no complaint filed so far. McLemore is a quiet fellow and Chambers was also good natured, and it is said that the entire trouble came out of friendly scuf1e that no harm was intended by Chambers.
 Chambers leaves a wife and several children.
 A burglary occurred Saturday night at Elkmont in this county, and Thomas F. McWilliams, merchant there, is loser by several hundred dollars. The burglars were the boldest ever known in this sec tion. They drove a wagon and went to the store house of McWilliams and open ed the front door and loaded in about five hundred dollars worth of general merchandise and hauled it away, and no trace can be found of them. It is believed that the burglars were from Tennessee. He has offered hundred dol lars reward for the capture of the thief and return of the goods
 F. R. Daily, one of the most promi- nent business men in this place, was visi- ted Saturday night with a stroke of pa- ralysis from which he lies in a very critical condition.
