TERRELL ESTATE
The Insane Man in Easthaven Once
Wealthy.

A dispatch from Button, Ind,
says that Pleasant H. Stanley, who
was appointed by Judge Vaughn last
week as guardian fr John w. Terrell.
gave bond today in the sum of $4,000.
Terrell left little property for him to
look after, although he was worth
probably between 100000 and $780,
900 before the shooting of his SON
in-law, Melvin Wolfe. Shortly be-
fore he became insane he transferred
all his property to his wife and chill
dren and all that is left in his name
is about $3.50 in cash and about 100
barrels Of oil. He owned several fine
oil farms, which produced large roy
alties, but these he transferred to his
wife. Shortly before the time that
he lost his reason he transferred all
his interests in the Grand opera
house, in this city, amounting tc
about $4,000. to his son-in-law, John
Schott. None of the court costs OF
the big murder trial have been paiC
and likely will not be.

ADJUSTMENTS

OF the imperial Marine band of
Germany which comes to the Gennett
June LIST, matinee and night, the
Pittsburs dispatch says: "The
band has played several selections to
resounding applause. Finally, the
"Star Spangled Banner was played
in an impressive tempo and with
much feeling. With the first bar the
band stood up. The sentiment OF
the foreigners permeated the audi
ence, and the crowded house rose
from its seats and remained stand
ing until the end came. Then a vol
ume Of prolonged applause reigned
until the band played ode Wacht
Am Rhein.' The band is a splendid
one, given to brass climaxes and
climacteric ensembles.

Mr.. Parsons received common and

gan, from which institution he grad
uated in 1893, receiving the degree of

the bar of the Supreme Court of Michi-

WILL BEN(VATE
I GOVERNORS OFFICE

Acting Governor Atkinson is con-
templating the renovation of the room
of the Governor in the Capitol build
ing. 1t is now one of the dingiest in
the second story and the woodwork
needs vanishing and polishing, the
floors are in need of shellac and the
plastered walls ought to have atten-
ton. The room has not been renovated
for some time.
1t is curious thing that just over
the desk of the Governor hangs the
portrait of ruler who lost not only
his crown and throne, but to the peo-
pie their very country, through a Sc
ries of blunders This is the oil por-
trait of Napoleon III, presented by
that monarch to the reigning ruler of
Hawaii. In a nearby corner is a mar
BILE bust of the Empress Eugene. Most
of the other relics which occupied the
chamber of the days of Hawaii's mon
archy have been removed or sold.

He did not notify the committee that
he had appointed Johnson until toward
the end of the session. He was not
sure about this as his memory was
not good. Johnsons work was to take
his notes taken at meetings and write
them out in proper FORM" filling in
words.
According to the amount of work
guess IT was twenty-six days work,
altogether" said Kumalae referring to
,Johnsons clerical work. He told me
he worked on it twenty-six days" he
continued.
"Johnson's report was never present.
ed to the committee-it was presented
to me. 1t was found that Glrvin's re-
port was the better one, SO that was
adopted"
Did you ever notify the committee
that you had obtained this opinion?"
inquired Andrews.
II don't remember" answered Ku-
malae. That became the burden OF his
answers"
II will say. however, that the COM
mittee signed the whole report and the
opinion was in it," said Kumalae.
He could not point out in the report
the opinion He was asked why the
lawyers. on the committee of which
there were three-Long, Chillingworth
and Fernandez-had not been question:
ed as to the legal point.
How about yourself" asked An
drews, weren't you one of Humph-
reys' lawyers?" which caused a smile.
1t was brought out by Kumalae's
testimony that despite the secrecy by
which Johnson was excluded from the
meetings, Prendergast, the clerk of
another committee, was present.
David Kupihea said that as men,
ber of the committee on accounts he
did not pass personally on more than
ten vouchers out of Ga made up DUR
