number of merchants and residents of

will. About ten years ago Mr.. Whar-
ton fell from a hay loft and ever since
that time he has conn lained of pains
about the head and ne TX. Several of
the merchants and business men have
testified to his having attempted to pay
bills several times and to other sucn
things which he did, tending to prove
his loss of memory. Evidence has also
been produced Strengthening the theory
of the contestant that Mr.. Harrah OBJ
tanned large part Of the estate prior
to the death of his client by obtaining
from him the privilege. Of lending his
money for mortgages on real estate.
which he drew In his own name. In
fact one witness at least has testified
that to his certain kno wledge Mr.. Har-
rah visited Mr.. Wharton on one occa-
sion for the purpose Of making some
such arrangement.

Humboldt, April 21.-The application
of F. H. AIacNamara, one of our
druggists, for a renewal of his permit
to sell intoxicating liquors, was met
with such a vigorous protest that the
case was today continued to the
October term of court. The opposition
originated with the Good Templars'
lodge of this place, and as a result,
one of our drug stores will of necessity
operate a prohibition establishment at
least until the next term of court. It is

ginning of general movement to in
yestigate the drug stores of the county
and secure the revocation of the per-
nits of those which have been violat-
