cy Case This Morning--in-
nf.r Wolves About SRI 900.
WOMAN is ADJUDGED INSANE

Attorney +. W. Bagby, referee in

Fred Hesslg was a resident OF the
state of Kentucky when he died, and
because of this decision the mother,
Mrs. Catharine Hessig, viii come into
control on the entire estate valued
at s21. 900.
This point OF law, one OF the most
original ever coming before the ref
cree. had been up for some time,out
argument not heard until Wednes-
day. Referee Bagby reserved his de-
cision until today. Under the laws OF
Tennessee the mother comes into
half the sons estate, but under the
laws of Kentucky she gets It all. The
matter was brought into the bank
ruptcy cour: by the action of II. T.
Hessig. who went into bankruptcy az
ter becoming the administrator Of his
brothers estate. Part Of the estate is
already in the mothers hands.

SONG SAVES WOMAN FROM LION
Victim Of Ferocious Animal Finds
Music Stills Savage Instincts.

Omaha, July 13.-Mrs. John I'm
derwood, of New York. who has
been camping with her husband in
the Black Hills, owes her life to
songs. which saved her from a noun
tain lion, which attacked her last
night. The animal leaped on the
woman, knocked her down and stood
with its forefeet on her breast. Mrs.
Underwood screamed, but suddenly
remembered that ferocious beasts
sometimes are tanned by music, and
began to sing. AS long as she sang
the animal stood harmless, but
whenever she ceased it growled and
appeared as if about to kill her. All
night long she kept up her song, and
in the morning, when she was al
most overcome by exhaustion, she
was found by her husband with the
lion standing over her. Mr.. Under
wood shot the animal.

What Osteopatily Is.

The question is often asked What
is osteopathy for some people have
a very vague idea of this new science
that is doing so much to aid mankind.
osteopathy, when well digested, is
nothing but good sense and reason.
1t is a method for treating disease
by manipulation, to restore the normal
condition of the nerve control and the
blood supply to every organ of the
body by removing the physical OBJ
structlons. or By stimulating, or check
ing, functional activity. as the eondi-
tions may require.
A diseased body Is caused by some
interference to working part Of the
organism, and a correction of II brings
restored health. Therefore, osteo-
pathy finds the disturbance and, right
ing II, effects its cure.
The methods used are scientific
manipulation, and no medicines, and
they are very successful.
Some of the diseases in which osteo-
pathic treatment has been the most
effective are headaches Of all kinds.

EMPRESS EuGENIE.

Eugenie, exiled empress Of France,
now in her eighty-frst year, is visiting
Emperor Joseph. of Austria Hungary,
expecting soon to die. Her career has
been remarkable one and that she
has lived through II all shows she is
a remarkable woman. She was in her
day one of the handsomest women of
Inrope. and dictated the fashions to
the women OF the civilized world. She
ives born of mixed Spanish and
Scotch parentage May 5, 1926, at
Granada, Spain. Her father was the
Count dc Montijo. a grandee of Spain.
and her mother, Dona Manuela Kirk
patrick Closeburn, was descended
from an olG Scotch Catholic family.
The empress was educated In England.

IN that country. She was married In
Paris. where she was then on visit,
- the early part Of 1853, after the
x4ilure of negotiations for a union be-
tween the emperor and a daughter Of
tho king of Sweden.
In short time the court of the
Tuilerles became, under her manage
ment, the most brilliant in Europe, in
spite of the fact that the cd aristoc-
racy of France kept rigidly aloof.
The prince imperial. her only child.
was born in 1856. and the prospective
right OF regency was conferred on her
in 1858. She accompanied the emper-
or on two visits to Queen Victoria,
aud the English royal family have al.
ways entertained warm personal
f19AdshIp for her. She made several
journeys for political purposes on be-
half OF the ,emperor.
When the Revolution of September 4
overturned the empire after the sur
render of Sedan she was obliged to
SCI k safety in a precipitate flight. She
had been acting as regent since the
departure of the emperor for the
'front.', and the populace Of Paris at
tributed to her influence the disasters
and humiliation that befell France.
