HEIRS TO ESTATE
Mrs. R. j. Wright and Joel w. Walker,
colored Residents Of This City, In
herit Kentucky Farm From an Aunt
Estimated Land is Worth $4,000.


Mrs. r. j. Wright, AL North Sec
ond avenue. and Joel w. Walker, 400
North Fourth avenue, both colored,
have just received notice that they are
two of three heirs to a farm Of 100
acres near Richmond, KY, which is
estimated to be worth $4,000. They
come into possession by reason of their
being the heirs of an aged aunt, Mrs.
Amanda Moore, who died September 5.
The other heir is Rev. Owen Walker,
Mrs. Wright's and Mr.. Walkers broth
er, who lives in Kansas City, Mo. Mrs.
Wright and Mr.. Walker will leave for
Richmond in a few days.
Mrs Moore lived at Bobtown, KY,
and the story Of how she came into
possession of the farm is an interest
ing one. She was born a slave, and
was made free by the war and Presi-
dent Lincoln's emancipation proclama-
ton. Mrs. Moore accumulated the
property thru her own efforts, by saw
ing her small earnings, and investing
them judiciously. Her husband died
during the war. He was slave, also,
but when his freedom was given him
he enlisted in the union army. He died
while in the service. After his death
Mrs. Moore was left on her own re-
sources, but she labored and gradually
accumulated enough to purchase the
farm Of 160 acres near Richmond.

WILLIAMS AS MANAGER

crays' Third Baseman May Lead This
city's Bunch Of Pennant chasers
Next Season - He Has intimated
That He Would Accept - Choice
Would Be Popular.
s. Clyde williams, for two years
third baseman for the Grays, Is one Oh
the prospective managers for the Grays
next season. While not an avowed
candidate for the place Williams, be-
fore he left the city, intimated to a few
of his personal friends that he might
accept, should he be wanted for the
place, On account of the possibility OF
his being selected, his name, with man
arer attached to it, was forwarded to
Secretary Farrell, of the National as
ISOLATION, which prevents the possibili-
ty of his being drafted, as managers
are not subject to the drafting ruies.
Should Williams be chosen, the Sc
lection would doubtless meet with pop
ular favor. as Williams mas been the
most popular player who ever wore
Gray uniform. In great measure his
popularity is deserved, and as he has
had the benefit of the experience
gained by almost half dozen years OF
professional base ball. he should be
able to manage the local team well.
Warner is an impossibility, and out
of the question. So unpopular as a
manager did he become during the
past season, that it is doubtful il a club
could be financed which had him for
its manager. 50
