EDUCATED AT MEXICO,
One of AguinaldO's CaptOrs Was a
Student at the Old Military
Academy Fine Fellow.

Lieutenant Eli L. Admire, who was
one of the expedition with General
Funston to capture Aguinaldo in the
Philippines, received his military
education at the Missouri Military
Academy in this city about years
ago. AS a cadet at "F'leet" school
the young Oklahoman was INTREPID,
would dare anything and at the same
time would bear anything to shield a
friend or comrade.
The young man, who is now a Sec
ond Lieutenant in the Twenty-Second
Infantry, doing service in the Philip
pines, was no more studious than the
ordinary mortal, but he was greatly
liked by both teachers and fellow
cadets. He was born in Topeka, Kan
sas, and afterwards moved to King
fisher, Oklahoma, where his father,
Captain Jacob V. Admire, was for
years editor of the Free Press. He is
now receiver Of the United States
Land Office at Kingfsher
In June, 1898, young Admire, just
out of a Chicago Hospital where he
had been operated on, joined Co. @,
First Illinois Volunteer Infantry, and
served in the Santiago campaign.
About a year later he received his
appointment in the Twenty-Second
and was assigned TO duty in the East.

Will of VIM Cornstt.

The will Of the late William Cornett,
which has been filed for probate,
provides that his wife Thursa Ann
(who died a week before Mr.. Cornett
did should have enough money to
make, added to whatever sum she may
have, $1,000. The rest of the estate
was to be divided among the eight
children in equal parts. The children,
at the time of the drawing up of the
will, August 1889, were: Robert H.,
William W., Napoleon B., 7. Jefferson,
Elizabeth Brady, Charlotte Brice,
Hanna Chestnut and Mary Sue Enslen.
Each was to share equally considering
in the apportionmentall advancements
which had been made, with the excep-
tion Of Napoleon B., who, owing the
losses by fire and sickness, was to be
charged with but s40O advance money.
Z. P, French, Caleb t. Martin and
John E. Fish were the witnesses.
In a codicil to the will dated May IL
1899, it is set forth that Charlotte
Brice had died and the sum set aside
for her in the will is given to her
daughters, Annie and Laura, in equal
parts. To the husband Of Charlotte
and the other children Ellen, Virginia,
Pryor, Reece, Ralph, William, Jose s.,
and Lizzie is left 81 each.
r. L. Morris and E. P. French wit
messed the signing of the codicil.

queathed to his wife, Elizabeth, all
his estate, real and personal, and
names her as executrix of the will.

Vetoed BY DoekerY.

House Bill No. $50 to compel hus-
band and wife to join in actions where
both may have a cause Of action for
damages growing out of the same
state of facts, has been vetoed by the
Governor. His reasons for disapproval
of the bill are as follows:
This bill provides that where the
husband and wife have separate
causes Of action growing out of the
same state Of facts, they must join in
one suit. This overthrows established
precedents and the settled practice in
this State for years. Under the law
as it now stands the husband may have
a cause Of action for an injury to his
wife, and the wife may also have a
separate cause Of action for the same
injury. There is no more reason why
these should be Joined in one suit
than where two individuals not so con-
nected may have right to maintain
a suit against the same defendant.
1t is a departure in legal procedure
in this State from all precedents that
have been established for years.

tered suit against the Chicago & AL

G. & A. RAILROAD.
1t is Now Reported to Have Been
Sold by Hartman to the Rookie
fellers.

CHICAGO, ILL, March 2S.-Rumors
prevailed to-day that control of the
Chicago & Alton road has again
changed hands or is about to do so.
Rockefeller interests, it is said, have
bought Z. II. Harriman's holdings in
the Alton with the view to making 1t
part Of their Missouri, Kansas and
Texas system. This is said TO be the
secret Of the strength which has de-
veloped in the price of the Alton Sc
curities the last few days and the de-
mand which suddenly developed in
market for the stock.
No official confrmationoft the rumors
could be obtained here. Alton officials
profess ignorance to the entire matter.
They said they had nothing to do with
the financial control of the road, but
had simply to see to it that it secured
all the traffic obtainable and that it
was made a profitable piece Of prop

THE St. Louis Republic editorially
says: "Senator Vest reads lesson in
true Democracy with old-time pun
gency. A word of advice from that
stalwart Missouri champion is worth
all the meddling homilies Of Nebraska
editors il they keep up the game till
next election. All those who refused
to support Mr.. Bryan, but now declare
themselves willing to unite with the
party in opposition to Imperialism,
trusts and subsidies, should be re-
ceived in the most friendly spirit by
the majority from whom they differed,
and it is only by this course that we
can regain political supremacy This
is the conclusion Of Senator George G.
Vest, who knows the Missouri Democ-
racy from Kenneth to Maysville, and
has fought more battles on the soil of
this State than any Omaha editor will
ever fight if he moves his domicile

James Graham, wealthy farmer in

did not have the heart to finish the

drinks. You will have some serious
questions to answer when you face
your God. Your whisky is sold every
where"
At this point the Mayor interrupted
her with: "I'm afraid it is not so."
When she had finished Mayor
Fleischmann remarked blandly: 81

afraid you have struck hard PROPOSE
tion-the Mayor of wicked city and

have met you and hope that you may
