That Many offered in Court
With More to Follow.

Richmond, KY, Aug. 4.-Six wills of
the late General Cassius NJ Clay were
offered for probate today in the Madison
county court The probating of each
was objected to by the legal heirs of
General Clay. Objection was sustained
by the court and each of the wills was
indorsed offered
The court set September 2, the next
county court day as the time when the
question of probating all of General
Clays wills would be taken up. Other
wills are expected to be offered on or
before that date.
Later the court upon motion of the
heirs appointed the State Bank and
Trust company of Richmond to act as
curator of General Clay's estate pend
ing the appointment of legal represen-
tative.
OF the wills offered today one was Of

Reports from Western Wheat
Counties Still Improving.

The more reports that are received
from the western wheat counties, some
of which have broken into the million
bushel class for the first time this year,
the more the wheat crop in that part of
the state seems to increase. The re-
ports from the central Kansas fields do
not show that the wheat is yielding
particularly well and justify the low
yields that have been credited to those
counties, but the western counties are
claiming great crops.

who is president of the state board of
and he also has a wide knowledge of
what he is talking about. He writes to
the secretary of the state board of agri-
culture follows:

LELAND REPLIES TO BELTS
Advises Him to Keep His Own Door
way Clean.

Cyrus Leland returned from a trip
east Monday night Today he was
shown the statement of Representative
Belts of North Topeka in turning $31.50
into the flood relief fund to take the
place of the per diem and mileage which
Mr. Leland had not given to the flood
relief fund. The only comment Mr..
Leland would make was as follows:
Il don't know when Mr.. Belts took
charge of my affairs. He had better
keep his own doorway clean. People
who live in glass houses had better
not throw stones
Later in discussing contributions to
the flood sufferers Mr.. Leland said that
his town, Troy, sent two carloads OF
provisions to the flood sufferers and
Doniphan county was the only county
in the state to make a direct appro-
priation for the sufferers. The men who
run Mr. Lelands store at Troy gave
their time in assisting in raising the
provisions for the flood sufferers and
contributed largely from his store
When the second car load was being
made up it lacked little of being fun,
and the county commissioners of Doni-
phan county, who were in session at
the time promptly made an appropria-
ton of $100 to make up the deficiency.
