A CONTEST ON.
The Will of the Late Frederick WEIGH
stadt to be FOuaht.

Caroline Stain of Welcome has filed
a petition with Probate Judge Hughes,
asking to have the estate of her moth
or. the late Mrs. Augusta Weichstadt,
administered. She asserts that the es-
tate consists of s., 500 personal prop
erty and 81, 500 real estate. The other
heirs are her brothers, Carl and Paul
Sellers of Martin county. 7. J. Knox
Of jackson is Mrs. Stahn's attorney,
and the hearing is set for Nov. 18th.
The fling of this petition precipi-
tates fight over the estate of the late
Frederick Weichstadt, as the property
desci ibed in the petition is onethird
of bis estate. Mrs. Stain and her
brothers are the children of Mrs.
Weicnstadt by a former husband, and
are not named in Mr.. Weichstadt's
will. The latter provides for the in
vestment of the estate and the pay
ment of the interest to Mrs. WEIGH
stadt, and on her death the division
of the property among four of the tes-
tator's chill rem. The latter will un-
doubredly oppose the petition Of Mrs
Stain. ~ Go a#sEls5a
The main point will depend upon
Mrs Weichstadt did or did
not object to the will of her husband.
If she did. then her children will get
of the property, If she did
not. then the will stands AS matter
Of fact. Mrs. Weic hstadt died the day
after her husbands death. and of
course had no time to enter q protest
If she had wanted to. The point will
be raised that as she had not time to
make protest it should De considered
that she would have made one. This

Alexander Sawyer. son of Alex Saw
yer of Lake Washington became vio-
lently insane on Tuesday evening Of
last week. He had been subject to
epleptic fits for some time past. On

Catholic church, fearing to leave him
at home with the smaller children.

Mrs. Sawyer missed their son and re-
turned to the church where he was
found lying in one of the pews. Upon

attacked Rev. FIR. Busch and Carey.
Assistance soon arrived and he was
taken from the church. He attacked
all those who came near him and it
was decided to place him in the
county Jail but here it required sew
eral men to hold him and finally Judge
of Probate Moll and two physicians
were summoned and he was committed

CAUSE OF HOG CHOLERA.
Attributed to Excessive Feeding of
Corn, When Not Ripe.

The Fairmont Sentinel gives the fol-
lowing Information regarding the
cause of hog cholera:
During the last year there has been
less cholera and swine plague than
formerly simply it is said by good au-
thorities, because less corn was fed.
This does not mean that corn is the
direct cause of cholera, but it does
mean that as promoter of the dis
ease, corn, especially new corn. is an
unparalleled success. This greatest OF
all grains is the greatest heat producer
grown on the farm and when fed in
large quantities produces fat at the
expense of tissue, so that the animal
falls an easy victim when the cholera
microbe puts in an appearance.
At this time, in the face of an
enormous crop, farmers are likely to
forget the lesson they have learned as
to feeding the smaller grain ration.
New corn is unexcelled for fattening
purposes, but it is deficient in muscle,
flesh and bone forming elements. 1t
should be fed cautiously and always
with some digestible concentrated
feed.
A we'll known Iowa authority said
recently that the system of the pig
soon becomes deranged by continuous
feeding of new corn, the animal soon
becomes sick, and much of the loss
usually attributed to hog cholera
might be termed corn disease. He
stated further that two bushels of new
corn are req Tired to equal one bushel
of old corn for results, and as pigs
like the new corn and will eat it raw
enously if permitted every precaution
should be taken to prevent overeating
The farmer who has big crop of
corn this year will be UNNECESSARILY
benefited if he will continue TO feed
the balanced ration. The big yield of
corn should not deter him from using
concentrated feeds.
He should remember the danger in
feeding new corn and that three or
four nogs saved will more than pay
for the necessary quantity of concen-
trated feed rich in digestible protein.
Besides being bountiful crop a large
per cent of the corn in Martin county
is soft and will be especially con-
ducive to hog cholera. Farmers should
feed the new crop of corn with great
care

LIKE Col. SELLERS
Harold B. st. Clair Had Wis.,
ionary Schemes Galore.
He Sold Fellow Being ToWnsite
That Existed Only in His
Own Mind.

Harold B. st. Clair, the man who
was arrested in this city on Friday
and taken to Minneapolis Saturday
morning, has record that makes
Colonel Sellers look like quarter
with a hole in it. The Minneapolis
papers set him out as one of the
smoothest of his kind with brain
that is up to the limit for fertility.
He had schemes that turned out to be
visionary and. there was nothing in
'em. -
The complaining witness in the
present case is John S. Halvorsen,
who formerly resided in Minneapolis,
but is now a resident of Washington
state. Mr.. Halvorsen believed the rep
resentation of st. Clair, so it is said,
and went to Washington with the idea
of becoming fabulously rich as the re-
suit of his being half owner in a
townsite. But the TOWNSHIP was not in
existence. Halvorsen claims to have
paid st. Clair $3.50 in exchange for a
half interest in TOWNSHIP that had
existed only in the mind of the latter.
st. Clair wanted to consult an attor-
ney before making formal answer tc
the indictment. The consultation
will be in the county Jail st. Clail
was given until this morning tt
plead.
st. Clair at one time was residen
of Duluth. where he manufactured {
bitters that was widely advertised al
the thing for practically all the ills tx
which human flesh is heir.
st. Clair is said by the officers wht
have investigated his record to be ,
smooth and successful swindler. Per
haps his favorite scheme was to ad
vertise for a partner with money. 4
plausible story would be told. He hat
something that was sure winner
but did not have the capital to develo]
it. The "partner" would do the rest

INs TAN1LY KILLED.
Roy Turritten Run Over at Le-
Mars, Iowa.
Was Breaking on the Omaha Road
His Foot Caught in a Switch
Funeral Tomorrow.

John Roy Turrittin, Oldest son of
Mr.. and Mrs. George w. Turrittin Of
this city. was instantly killed at LIE
Mars, Iowa. Saturday forenoon. He
had been brakeman on the Omaha
road for two months, on way freight
between ST. James and Sioux City,
and was engaged in performing his
duties when he met his death.
Between ten and eleven O'Clock Sat
urdsy forenoon, Mr.. Turrittin was as
sisting at switching in the railroad
yards at LeMars. He tried to uncouple
two cars. but the chain that attached
the bar to the draw pin was broken
and the apparatus would not work
He swung himself in to draw the pin
with his hand, when his foot caught
in the split rail of the switch. The
train was moving slowly and he did
not have time to extricate himself
before he was thrown down between
the rails. One car and half of another
pa. sed over him and the lowest part
of the Car crushed his chest in. His
face was scratched, but there were
no other outward signs of an injury.
When his body was removed from I'M
der the cars he was dead, the internal
injuries having proved instantly fatal.
The shoe that caught in the switch
was torn from the foot, and one truck
was thrown from the track.
A coroner's inquest was held Satur-
day afternoon, but the verdict was
simply that the deceased came to his
death by being run over by the cars.
The evidence as to the defective
coupling was very plain.
Although the accident occurred in
the forenoon, the young mans father
was not notified until shortly after
six O'Clock. Accompanied by his
nephew, Frank Turrittin, and D. c..
Davies, he went to LIE Mars on the
night train, and returned with the re-
mains at AS o'clock Su nday after
noon The remains were taken to the
home of the deceased, TIA South Second
street.
Mr. Turrittin was single man.
He was born and raised in Kasota, aud
was twenty-five years of age. His
parents moved to Mankato a year ago,
and his father is engaged in the real
estate business with d. c. Davies, in
the Odd Fellows block The deceased
had been employed by the American
Express company between Heron Lake
and Pipestone for year previous to
going to work for the Omaha road.
He was bright, ambitious lad. and
had entered the employ of the railroad
because he considered the opportuni-
ties for advancement to be greater.
He was we'll liked by all who knew
him, and his sudden death is a sad
blow to his parents and family as well
as to his many friends and acquain-
tances. He was a member of the Order
of Red Men He had some insurance
before entering the railroad service.
Short funeral services were held
at the residence at noon Tuesn ay.
and the remains were then taken to
Kasota bv carriages, where services
were held at two O'Clock at the
ehurch
