chiIdren's Home and Humane Society
May Accept Cash Instead of Farm.
Traer, Nov. &c. - There is a good
prospect of settlement of the Shower
will case. 1t will be recalled that
Isaiah Shower, an old. bachelor, who
died here few months ago, willed a
$4,000 farm to the M. E. church IN
Traer, a $4,000 farm to the Iowa Chill
dren's home Of Des Moines. and a $15,
900 farm to the Iowa Humane Society
of Des Moines. The heirs, none nearer
than a brother and nephew, began suit
to break the will and the case was sto
come up In the district court here on
December z. The heirs have of late
been very anxious to settle and nego-
tiations have been In progress between
their attorneys and the church trus-
tees here. The latter were offered
$4,000 in cash, inasmuch as the will
was somewhat indefinite as to how the
proceeds Of the farm were to be ex-
pended, and the officials thought $l5,-
900 in cash would do the church more
good than the farm even If they won
the suit. The offer will be accepted.
But the trustee and executors Of the
estate object to a: settlement and the
matter is hung UP for the present.
It is understood that the attorneys
for the heirs are now at work on the
officials of the Des Moines institutions
in the effort to effect a settlement with
them. The will provides that three
institutions shall have the net in
come from the farms forever, but that
they can not be sold. It Is supposed
the contestants will plead insanity If
the case goes to trial.

Sibley, Nov. 26.-The breaking Of the
main line shaft at the Sibley mill has
caused that institution to cease oper-
atoms for the past few days. A long
er delay was necessitated by larger
line shaft being put in, the old one be-
ing too small for the work required.
The pulleys had to be sent away to be
trimmed out. The accident not only
causes loss of time, but it is quite
an item of expense to the company.
j. S. Reynolds and c. A. Champers
were appointed by the board of super
yisors to check over the books Of the
county officers.
Revival meetings have been in pro-
gress at the M. e. church for some
days past, conducted by the pastor,
Rev. A. A. Randall and assisted by

Des Moines, Nov. ga new flaw In

The constitution Of the state provid-

The biennial elections amendment
was proposition to abolish the cleo

But 1t included a dozen other amend

terms of office of several officers whose
tenure is determined by other sections
Of the constitutional amendment which

The objection has been newly rails

dozen different amendments to differ

inhibition against submission of

other would expire in 1907; still an
other in 1909. But by the constitu-
tional amendment which has just been
adopted, the terms of these three are
extended a year, despite the interven-
ton of several elections and conven-
lions.
This, of course, is merely an illustra-
ton. There has been no opposition to
extension of the terms of the supreme
judges affected by the amendment, but
it illustrates the question which those
who object to the validity of the cleo
tons amendment have raised.
Governor Cummins said yesterday
that he had not had time to consider in
detail the objection which was raised
to the omission of the words "of Iowa
from the amendment as submitted to

the validity of the amendment could be
affected thereby

Joseph Edgington and Abigail Harris,
the former on Jan. %, 1920, and the lat
ter on Feb. 49, 1928. On Nov. 26, 1874,
occurred their marriage. In 1856, in
the spring Of the year, they settled In
Eldora among the sturdy pioneers on
Iowa's rich prairies. No history of Ell

Mr.. Edgington in his long residence In

seventeen years as postmaster with ut

owned and operated the first store ever
erected in Eldora and no enterprise

brought each and all up into the best
