was the protection of German immigrants
and their descendants, devoted its chief
attention during the first half of the last
century not only to the charitable work,
which has always been its sphere, but also
to the alienation of the lot of the poor

GRAND RAPIDS Mich, March S.-The
mystery surrounding the murder of Mrs.
Ada Klump. of Howell, by a poisonous
headache powder, last Sunday, is still un-
solved, although Sheriff Chapman is doing
his best to unravel it. William Klump, the
husband, who had been suspected of being
the principal or at least an accomplice in
the tragedy, is still confined in the county
Jail. One thread of what the officers
thought to be a possible clew seems to have
beer broken by the receipt this afternoon Of
a telegram from Chicago as follows:
I'm Chicago since September. Miss Hattie
Whitfield. 1854 Lexington street
There were reports from Lowell residents
that Miss Whitfield had been seen in Lowell

July Il, Judge Hallett served notice on
Miss Lathrop that he would decline to
recognize any bill she might present.
During the contest of the Clayton

a specialist on wills. She was asked
to make the closing argument in the
supreme court. Later she was asked
to speak before the bar association,

Miss Lathrop says in her complaint
distinctly that she prepared the brief.
Judge Hallett does not attempt to
say what Miss Lathrop did or did not
do. He merely says that she was-not

DENVER, Col, Oct. 25.-Miss Mary
F. Lathrop, attorney at law, has filed
suit against Judge Moses Hallett, trus-
tee of the George w. Clayton estate,
for $4,000, which she claims for serv
ices as attorney.
The complaint sets forth that Miss
Lathrop acted as attorney in the Clay

preme courts. Miss Lathrop alleges
that she prepared a. brief of ITO pages
for the supreme court, tracing the his
tory Of the law in it's relation to the
will. For this she says that she ex-.
pended $780, The complaint then says
that :. reasonable value for services

court sees fit to grant"
Judge Hallett says that Miss La
throp's services were given gratis.
