WALTON WILL CASE
 PLACED ON TRIAL Is Old Case Remanded by Su- preme Court-$1OO,000
 Is Involved

Athens, May 8.-(Special )-The cele- brated Walton will case was called to- day in the Probate Court for trial. This Is the second time that this great case.. in which, something like hundred thousand dollars is involved, has been called for trial within the past two
 months This time 1t went to trial. The case was tried some time ago and went to the Supreme Court on appeal and was reversed and remanded. The only thing now left for the jury to determine is whether or not the will at issue Is a gen uine will under the laws of the State of Alabama The will was made in Nash yille nearly thirty years ago by most eccentric old maid and at that time she was at outs with her relatives. Her only brother. the late Major Woodroof. was then living and she cut him and his chill siren of with s5 each, while to others she left handsome sums. Later she be- came reconcfled with her brother and all his family and spent the remainder of her life with them, and at her death her es- tate went to her nephew and niece, and months after her death an old document was found by her nephew in her effects which had the appearance of a will and he submitted 1t to other friends, and the case came up on that issue. The will was written in Nashville where she had gone for treatment, and 1t is claimed was not the intention of her will at the time of her death. The estate is worth nearly S100, ,000.,

BANKER POLLOCK
 SHOOTS HIMSELF
Cleveland Man Commits Suicide in Washington-Head of
 Closed Institution

Seattle, Wash, May s.--A man believed ment of the Cuyahoga Savings and Banking Company, Cleveland, Ohio, killed himself here today in the Hotel York with a pistol. A razor, a two-ounce box of rough on rats and a phial contain ing 100 tablets of aconite were found near at hand. All papers belonging to the man had been burned before he killed him self
 The name of R. N. Pollock was found sewed inside of his coat. placed there by a Cleveland tailor.
 Cleveland, Ohio. May SIR. N. Pol lock, who killed himself in Seattle today, was the president of the Cuyahoga Saw ings and Banking Company of this city. He was 3S years old, married and had three children. He was the promoter of the bank which closed its doors last Wednesday. Pollock disappeared ten days ago, and had not been definitely located until news of his suicide reached here tonight.
 The condition of the bank Is yet a mat ter of conjecture, it's books being in the hands of the receiver. The bank had de- posits at one time to the extent of $430 900. The effect of rumors of the banks weak ness was feared by the directors and con- sequently they suspended pending further investigation. Other Cleveland institu- tions of money offered their assistance to the Cuyahoga bank and some confidence has thereby been restored. The receiver of tho bank stated tonight that Pollock did not take the missing money that was in the bank at the time of his leaving the city and it is believed that, knowing a crisis was near, Pollock sought safety in flight.
 The United States Carbon Company, which went into the hands of a receiver on account of the failure of the bank, is said to be not seriously involved. and 1t is expected to resume operations soon with increased facilities.

JAPAN IN WINTER.
Colder In Houses of the Rich Man
 Than In Open Sunshine.

Anna N Benjamin in Ainslee's.
 I suppose that the American people and the Russians arc the only western races that really keep warm in winter. Still, those who dwell in other countries admit that they have the same ideal by their inefficient effort to attain to 1t The Japanese winter is most trying on ac- count of its continual dampness, but the Japanese are content to remain cold. They make almost no effort to overcome it. The old "Bushido" (chivalrous) idea of the ''samurai'' (lxnights) was that 1t was eliminate to feel cold. and such is their severe training that they do not really feel it as we do The wearing of some extra 'kimonos" and the use of a 'hibachi' or brazier, in which are a few tiny sticks of lighted charcoal are the only concessions to winter weather. With the "hibachi'' they never pretend to heat more than their finger tips, which they hold over the coals It is used when the house Is entirely open. The houses. as ev- cry one knows, are built of thin. light wood, and the sliding panels which serve for doors and windows have paper panes.. They are as apt to be open as closed dur ing the day. When I took my first 'jin- ril1isha" ride through the streets of Nigga saki 1 forgot my own sufferings in my sympathy for this unhappy nation which, as surely as the cold came. endured such misery from it. The cooles wear thin blue cotton clothes and are always pad ding through the mud, The storekeepers sit out in their open booths and the wo men go bareheaded about the streets. Tn the houses of the rich the still cold behind the closed panels is often more intense than that outside in the sunshine, where the air is stirring The schools and pub lie buildings are equally frigid It seemed to me that the only warm things in Ja- pan were the babies, who looked like bun dies of gaiy-colored crepe. their round heads covered by knit caps. They slum- Der peacefully tucked down their mothers backs. The attempt to keep warm in win ter is not entirely modern imprQve- ment," though 1t goes with western civil ization. The Coreans do 1t very thorough ly, the Chinese to certain extent. The Japanese. as a race, continue to scorn II as they always have done. and this Is merely one of a hundred examples which prove that the Japanese are still true to their traditions in their daily life and as yet are little affected in the ordering of their homes by the ideas adopted from the west.
