to London Is Decided Against Her
Counsel Here Says There
Is Still Fighting
&. Ground Left.
WILL CARRY Her CASE UP
AGAIN on ANOTHER POINT

z oNDON Aug. THE judicial
committee of the Privy Council
,recommended today the dismissal
= Of the appeal of the case of Duns-
naqir vs. Dunsmuir and Hopper VS..
.Dansr7uir.
.. ..... The appeal resulted from the suit of
e. Edna Wallace Hopper to break the
VIII Of the late Alexander Dunsmuir,
her stepfather. in which his brother,
james Dunsmuir former Premier of
British Columbia, was the principal
Eatee.
y The neither OF Alexander Dunsmuir
joined with the daughter of his wife
by another husband, Edna Wallace
Hopper. in the effort TO break the Will
by which Alexander left the bulk Of his
immspse property TO his brother. James
DHnsmuir. II was alleged that Alex
aHdcr Dunsmuir had for some time
been Incompetent by reason of long
continued dissipation; also that James
-pUnsmuir had unduly Influenced his
brother TO leave him the fortune.
The case has been tried in the courts
of Canada and by them shifted to the
courts Of California for the reasons
that 1T was then held that the Cali
fornia courts had Jurisdiction. as much
OF the property was in this State, and
that the decedent had become a nat
. uralized citizen Of the United States
Later. for some other technical cause
the case was returned TO the courts of
Canada and upon appeal from that
jurisdiction was taken before the ju-
diciaI committee Of the Privy Council
IN London.
Edna Wallace Hopper IS a San Fran
cisco girl by birth. Her mother, once
the wife Of a famous football player,
was secretly married IN the East TO
Alexander Dunsmuir about twelve
years ago. For some time the pair
lived at the Grand Hotel in this city,
later removing to a beautiful hacienda
on the Oakland side Of the bay. After
the death Of Alexander Dunsmuir Edna
Wallace Hopper brought suit for her

II was believed that a substan-
tiz victory had been won by the Amer
tcan actress in securing the privilege
OF appeal, which is not granted except
upon showing Of probable error. The
dismissal Of the appeal is a setback
FOR Edna Wallace Hopper and her step
fathers sister; but their representa-
tfVes in San Francisco declared yester-
d1- tsat the battle was not yet over;

Good Investments.

Copper Stocks which are listed on

double it in short time by buying

Nothing like them for an investment

taken my advice in years past are

Wireless Telegraphy on the Lakes.

wireless Telegraphy on the Lakes.
A company has been incorporated
to establish wireless telegraph
system for the use on the great lakes
from Duluth to Buffalo. This was
Ioreseen as soon as the developments
OF wireless telegraphy arrived at
practical stage, but the advent of
the system was not expected to take
place SO soon.
Some OF the passenger boats are
now equipped with the wireless
and the first steamer to make
round trip between Cleveland and
Detroit this season was kept in con
slant communication with both
points. Delay, caused by ice, was
explained to anxious friends of Of
tlclals and passengers.
The big marine interes is will sup
port the company placing the system
IN operation. and the corporation,
is we'll furnished with capital. The
work of putting in the plant will be
begun this summer and the service
will be for freight as well as passen-
ger boats.
The Cleveland Leader, i'm refer
ing to the proposed innovation.
says:
Any boat anywhere on the lakes
will be able at any time to communi-
cate with at least one station of the
system. The advantages are mani
fest and great. Wireless telegraphy
will probably begin new epoch for
the lake marine.
'sOnce in use it is likely to take ON
the Importance of the telephone on
land and become a necessity. The
expense will be more than made up
by reduced insurance rates, greater
safety for the vessels which are be-
ing made bigger and more costly
every year, and increased expedition
in the dispatch of business. "-Du-

HAS ANNOUNCED CANDIDACY
Mr.. Kinney is One Of the Prominent Mem
bers of the Legislature, Has Served
Two Terms, is Chairman of Com
mittee on State Affairs

ASsemblyman =. Ct. Kinney
of Colfax. mem Der Of the Legis-
lature from Dunn County, has
announced his candidacy for the
office OF Congressman from the
Eleventh congressional district
in opposition to Congressman
John j. Jenkins. Mr.. Kinney is
we'll known III this city. both in
a business and social way. He
has served in the legislature
during the last two terms, and
his record there is said to be ex !.
cellent. He was chairman of the

After careful consideration

advised with friends throughout
the district | have decided to be-
come a candidate at the pri-
maries 10 be held in September
next for representative in Con-
gress from the eleventh con-
gressional district.
The republicans of Wisconsin
have during the recent years
served as the advance guard for
reformation in legislation and
in administrative methods which
are az IN portant in the nation as
in the state. With this move
ment in Wisconsin I have been,
and am, in full accord. My re-
cord as a member Of the assem-
bly, during the last two sessions
of the legislature is the best
evidence | can offer as to In y
views in public affairs.
If elected I pledge my best
efforts to faithfully represen
the district on subjects of gen
eral legislation, and to support
such measures as stand for a
representative form Of govern
ment. Further, I believe that
the public service corporation S
should be subjected to such
reasonable control lis shall alb
solutely abolish discrimination,
and best subserve the general
public, and that legislation of
tnat character is essential and
no longer TO be postponed.
| believe in the policies ad ;
vocated with such ability and
patriotism by President Roose-
welt and shall, if elected, do what
lies in my power to aid in enact
ing them into law.

To be Establish at Once, in This
City.
COMPANY HAS BEEN ORGANIZED
With $4,000 Capital Nearly all of Which
Was Subscribed in Ten Minutes the
New Company Will Begin Bust
ness.

A new industry has been add
ed to those already here. An in
dustry OF no small proportion,
which will eventually grow to be
one of the largest in this part of
the state. Last Saturday even
ing number of persons who are
interested in the development
of the brick industry in this
city met at the Com mercial
Club rooms, and a company was
organized with a capital stock of
100000 for the purpose of
manufacturing brick. Nearly
100000 was subscribed within
ten minutes after the prelimin-
aries were arranged, and stock
has now all been subscribed.
The affairs of the old temporary
organization, formed for the pur.
pose of making the tests of the
value of the clay for making
brick, was closed up and a new
company was organized with e,
E. Kenfield temporary President
and H. P. Axelberg temporary
Secretary. Permanent officers
will be elected as soon as all the
details of the organization have
been completed.
The money to be put into the
plant will be furnished to some
extent by outside parties. G..
g. Frampton of Phillipsburg
Kansas was present and gave
evidence of his confidence in the
venture by subscribing for a
large block of the stock of the
company. Mr.. Frampton will
move here and will take active
charge of the enterprise this
spring. The other heavy stock
holders are e. e. Kenfeld, M. A.
Sprague. 0. A. Lamoreaux,
Thomas L. Dukelow, e. C.

Q, Brooks of Ashland, besides
others who took smaller amc UNITS
Of stock. The plant will be. To-
Gated between eighth and tenth
avenues south of Bayfield, street,
where clay deposits have been
found. Modern and up-to-date
machinery has been ordered and
will be installed as soon as it ar
rives. The plant to begin with
will have a capacity of between
twenty and thirty thousand
brick per day, and will be en-
larged later. Mr.. Frampton who
is a partical brick man says that
there is here a splendid opening
for the institution, good brick
clay may be found any place in
and around the city, the market,
is practically unlimited, an d
there is no reason why the plant
should not be a paying venture
from the very beginning.

But who would. if he existed.

Wouldn't die some day and leave you

And your father was as shy
On that sort of a relation,
Is that any reason why
In that far and distant country
Some one should not pass away
Who was every inch an uncle.
With the records clear as day?
Did you ever spend the money
That was coming on a boat.
With your uncle's last fond wisE-S
In a lief and business note?
Did you BUILD with il a castle
On the borders of the Rhine,
Or endow modern playhouse,
Or invest it in a r1ine2
