Levi M. Stewart was the principal
witness Wednesday in DR.. Asa John
sons contest proceedings over the
million-dollar fortune of the late
Albert johnson, his half-brother. He
said Albert Johnson was not insane
before his death. When asked If he
was not eccentric, witness said he was
in one particular-he had good, sound,
common sense. DR.. Edwin Phillips
said that he always looked upon the
late millionaire as perfectly CON-
petent mentally. In referring to DR..
johnson, the witness said he often had
queer notions, owing to the fact that
he used morphine.

ment" to be given at the Fourth Ward

evening. The program as prepared by
w. D. Mccall, chairman Of the COM
mittee in charge Of the affair, is
remarkably versatile one, and in
cludes addresses by Mayor Jones, ex-

J. M. Cleary. The other numbers on
the program include vocal and instru-
mental music by T. V. Twinning, Miss
Susie Shield, Leroy Roberts, Miss

A picnic that will stand as a marker
for generations to come will supply
entertainment for the children of the
Catholic Orphans home, Chicago ave-
nue. and Forty-sixth street south, on
the glorious Fourth Of July. The
plans are maturing, and as some OF
the most energetic women of the
ladies' societies of the various par
ishes have the matter in charge, and
all are working like Trojans, there is
not the remotest possibility of a slip
in the plans. A rousing meeting, at
tended by about forty ladies, was held
at the orphanage last Sunday, and the
general plans of the picnic were gone
over. The affair will be held on the
spacious grounds of the orphanage.
The weather man is not always reli-
able on July 4, SO, if he misbehaves
in the way of weather, the little folks
can scamper into the house. Almost
unlimited help has been promised by
the friends of the children. Nothing
will be omitted to make the day men,
orable, and there is promise of more
fun than can be used up. There will
be enough for all the children and
grown folks. The Ladies' Auxiliary, A.
O. H., pledged $1,000, which will go a
long way toward bang-up good time.

apolis that the officials Of the county
