question OF jurisdiction is made Of the prin-
cpal points OF contention under the objections filed
The petitioners say that for many years before
his death Mr. Hoyt was not a resident OF the
State Of New-York but OF New-Hampshire. II Is
r,rohable that an effort viii be made 20 have the
legal proceedings transferred there The petition
saws that Mr. Hoyt owned valuable real property
in Charlestown, n. H., and that he also had per
Eonal property there. II also says that MI hoyt
had no property in this State over which the New
York courts have lawful jurisdiction.

is invalid because Of the fact that il was not eN-
ec,.es undor the laws Of the State Of New-Hamp-
shire OF which State Mr.. Hoyt was a citizen. The
petition also alleges that the will obtained as
the result OF undue influence exercised over Mr..
Hoyt by Frank Mckee and others who were IN
terested In the will. II points out the fact that
IN the recent insanity proceedings in this city over
Mr. fIoyt il was decided that he was resident OF

THAT 500 WAGER.
Miss Myrtle Early Says She Doesn't
Want the Money.

Another chapter of the affair caused
by the wager of 500 to SIS made by
Milton Schlegel and Miss Myrtle Early
on the latter's age has been closed. The
matter has progressed so far just like
a serial story, each installment more
interesting than the preceding, and it
is with an anxious curiosity that their
friends look forward to try to antici-
pate the ultimate result.
The wager resulted in favor of Miss
Early. and she should have received
the sum of 800 which was pitted against
her So in the wager, but the money was
withheld from Miss Early because it
was claimed she had not satisfactorily
proven her age although she complied
with the terms of the agreement to
prove that she was nearer rs years old
than 30, by the record in the family
Bible at her home in Fredonia, Kansas
1t is now claimed that the check
which Schlegel put up was made out in
favor of his hancee. The report was
made current also that the money which
Sch1ege1's- This was proved by an in
consistent course of logic. viz. That
Miss Early borrowed the S25 from an
other OF the bOarders, George Stout, at
the house on East Sixth avenue where
they live, and that she gave her watch
as security. and that he. Stout. Dor
rowed the money from Schlegel.
All of which Miss Early Indignantly
denies In the first place" she said
Il did not pawn my watch and chain
for S25 to secure the money for the
wager.
And in the second place. could not
think of becoming the fancee of Mr.
Schlegel in order to cash the bogus
check / don't know whether that was
a trick to get out of paying the wager
or not At least it might be considered
one way of attempting to pay a debt
and then still retain the ownership of
the money" Some might consider it a
peculiar way of making a proposal OF
marriage.
Mr.. Stout also comes forward to say
that he never borrowed SIS from
SchIegeI to give to Miss Early, and fur
Their asserts that he does not owe
Schlegel a cent; and that all reports to
the contrary are misstatements.
It is impossible to tell now how the
joke started SO carelessly viii end. The
fellow dodgers at the boarding house
where they both live have taken sides,
on the question Some maintain that
Miss Early should receive the money,
inasmuch as the bet was fairly made at
the suggestion Of Schlegel.
Miss Early is perhaps the one most
viii not try to make him pay the bet"
she said I'm fact I don't want his
money. They were attempting to have
so much fun at my expense that be-
came exasperated and made the bet.
Now that have the tables turned upon

band" was enjoyed by a number of
