WILL IS GOOD.
Mrs. Chrisman's Bequests Sus-
tanned by Judge Hazerl.

Judge Hazen this morning sustained
the will of the late Eliza Chrisman, in
which she left the bulk of her estate to
be used IN founding a Methodist uni
versity in Topeka
Lucindy Espy and other heirs of Mrs.
Chrisman brought suit to have the win
set aside. The case was set for trial
this morning. It lasted but is minutes.
The case was brought on the grounds
that DR.. A. s. Embree, one Of the ex-
ecutors of the estate, had used undue
influence in inducing Mrs. Chrisman to
make such a viii. The testimony which
was offered was two wills. made ten
years before her last win and also in
1897. The wills were practically the
same as her last viii.
Judge Hazen sustained the viii by
giving the defendants Judgment. Dr.
Embree, who is the active executor and
to secure the Methodist university, sail
this morning; New we win build the
university in Topeka. I have always
believed in the possibility but many
have not. have a good many things
to influence such a belief. The Method
property in Kansas than any other
Protestant denomination in the state
though the A1ethodists numerically are
stronger and weather. than the others.
This is generally recognized as a place
where such an institution should be
built and its building need not conflict
with the other Methodist schools, espec-
tally If this should take on the proper
ton of a university as it seems it will. =
The c0pdition imposed in Mrs. Chris
mans will is that an amount equal to
that given by her be raised for the unl-
versity. It is estimated that the Chris
man estate is worth between 100000 and
9Q0n 0on
