PROPERTY LEFT BY WEALTHY
COAL OPERATOR BECOMES
VERY VALUABLE.


CHARLESTON, Nov. 1G.-conslder.
able interest is manifest in the case
of James D. Kutzner and Alice Kutzner
against w. H. Bowen. being heard in
the Federal Court this week, in which
the plaintiff is seeking to have a con.
tract made between Alice Kutzner and
her brother, the defendant dividing a
100000 estate equally between brother
and sister left by their father, who
died in November, 1902.
The late John P. Bowen was prom
inent coal operator well known
throughout the State. residing In Mer-
Ger county, having conducted opera.
tlons In the Pocahontas fields. He left
no will and his estate was shared by
Mrs. Kutzner and w. H. Bowen.
The PLAINTIFFS claim now that when
Mrs. Kutzner signed the agreement she
did not know what she was doing, be.
lieving that a certain clause referring
to other property IN trust by the broth
er would become part Of the property
divided During recent years this rail.

The South and the Presidency.

Editorial in the New York Sun.
Now, we know of no unanswerabIe
reason why the South should not Pre-.
sent its own candidate for the Rresi.
dency in 1908. That section furnishes
two.thirds of the party's brains, four.
ffths of its virlllty. and practically all
the voices in The national councils,
Why, then, should it not. as the pro-
wider of the banquet. abandon the
role of the poor relation and REFUSE
longer to sit below the salt?
There are some truly great men II
Congress from the South. Not MAN,,
but some. In civil life, however, men
of high intelligence, of pure and lofty
ideals, of compelling force. of brilliant
initiative, and Of splendiily substan-
tial achievement are to be met at ev.
cry turn of the road. Whether they
could be lured from the enterprise o!
upbuilding to the evanescent glOries
of public life is another question. In
the old days, when the South furnish.
ed the ruling class, or most of 1t, to
the nation, it gave its men of leisure,
of secure fortune and position-mcni
far above sorlld and mean temptation
men misguided, Il, you please, 5but
OF punctilious and passionate Sclf.re-
spect. There may be New South.
We hear much of 1t in after.dlnne:
oratory and hectic journalism. But
the only new South demonstration
we have actually witnessed Of late
was that furnished last month by the
Atlanta riots. The South is very
much, in purpose, character, and sem
timent, what is was fifty years ago.
The difference, purely superficial, Isl
that its ruling classes are now devo;'
ing themselves to material achieve
ment, and as rule leaving to others
the pursuit Of petty Office and emoln-
ment.

MILLIONS. .

WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.--It is stat!
ed in high officials circles here that
the unlimited resources of the Stand
ard Oil Trlst will not enable 1t to
delay unnecessarily a trial of the Is
sues as laid down at st. Louls'by At
torney General Moody. "a
The Judges who compose the circuit
court Of the eastern district OF Mis-.
souri, are looked to for prompt and
decisive action, They come from
States in which the oil trust has made
itself particularly obnoxious.
Judge W. H. Sanborn is from st
Paul. W. Il. vanDevanter, from Chey,
enne, Wyoming; W. C. Hook, from
Leavenworth, KAN; ana E. B. Adams,
from St. Louis.
The defendants are entitled to one
month in which to enter nappear'
ance and co days in which to demur
or answer II is believed here that
the case will be disposed of by the
circuit court, and be on the docket Of
the Supreme court inside OF year.
The department of justice desires to
bring the case to trial at the earliest
possible moment. The pocily of the
department to cxpedlate cases of this
character has already been well es.
tablished. Il is no longer possible by
legal delays 10 postpone final action to
the Supreme court of the United
States for five or ten years.
The map which the attorney general
made part fhis exhibits in the bill
filed presents strong object lesson
OF monopolstlc control. In the three
States, Connecticut, Ohio and Pennsyl.
vania, the price, for n medium grade
of Illuminating oil in bulk delivered to
retail dealers, deducting freight from
refnerles, is between eight and nine
cents a gallon, and New York and
States, the price ranges
from nine cents to almost fourteen
cents. In the Rocky Mountain States
and just east the prices range from
fourteen TO almost sixteen cents.

Grace Brown was brutality murdered

contention Of the prosecution in the
lSiaI ot young Gillette for the killing

The secret leaked out yesterday that
t6eautopsy showed that Miss Browns
eyes had been goiged out: her skull
factdred and her body covered with
bruises. The body showed that the
gifl had made struggle. The autopsy
showed that the body had been drag
ged through underbrush before it had
been thrown in the water. The ex.
animation showed no water in the
lungs, If the girl had been thrown
overheard, while alive, her lungs
would have been filled with water.
The prosecution will endeavor to
show that Gillette lurei the girl to the
woods and there beat her to death.
Unseen by any one he dragged the
body to the lake. threw it into the
boat and rowed to the point, where it
was thrown in the water.
a new panel of sixty talesmen has
been drawn from which to select n

Good-by to autumn, too!

Good-by, gool,by, to you!
But though the waillng winds SWEEP

And nipping grows the air;
Why need We sigh when dreams be
nigh
Ho for the rocking chair!
Ho for the corner by the blaze,
The book. The song. the glee;
The sweet delight of winter night,
With Gold.locIs at my knee!
Knock, Mr.. Winter, at the door!
Blow. bugle of the storm!
Around me streams the firesido

The love,lights keep me warm!
And while the blast beats loud with

Till summer We forget,
Through all we know that meath the

Soft sleeps the violet!

RUSHING LINE.
{. +. X. Hopes to Have Trains Run.
ming Into Saskatoon by Dec. 1.

Saskatoon, Sask., Sept 19-The C..
P. r. line from the east must enter
Saskatoon this year. Such is the or
der which has been given out and will
be carried through at all cost The
line at the present time extends be-
yond Strassburg and is only a little
over one hundred miles from Saska-
toon. Word in this city has taken
the definite form of pushing the main
line from the yards right on up to
Thirty-third street at the point where
the river will be crossed. Orders were
placed two weeks ago for the timber
for pile bridge which can be put in
place in about two weeks from the
time it is started. Once the bridge is
in, steel laying can begin eastward on
the line now being graded and made
ready. With steel laying gang ac-
lively at work and with reasonable
progress the new line should be in
Saskatoon by Nov !, and allowing for
delays to be in operation by Dec. ] of
this year. The steel is now laid forty
miles west of Saskatoon into Asquith.
The coming of the c.. P. R. line Is
OF great Importance to this city, for
should the c. P. r. relinquish the
Prince Albert branch or the C. N. r.
take sudden notion to assume con-
troll Of their newly acquired line the
rolling stock and motive power would
be lacking for good service this fall.
