on May 9, the anniversary of Schiller's
birth.
The statue is the work Of Prof. Karl
Marr and Prof. Ignatius Paschner, Of
Munich. Karl Mari is well known as
an artist of exceptional abilities, and
he enjoys the distinction Of being the
only native born American who has
become a professor of the Royal acad-
envy. He determined on the design
for the statue, and the model was
made by Prof. Taschner, a sculptor OF
wide reputation.
The statue is of heroic size and pic
lures the great German poet at the
prime Of life. 1t is made Of standard
bronze, and together with its pedestal
will stand II feet high.
The Schiller statue will stand near
the lily pond on high knoll, with q
background of small pine trees. The
cornerstone for the pedestal was laid
May 9, 1905, with impressive cere-
monies. The statue will represent an
outlay of something over $1,000.

Homer in the southern part of this
county, is excited over the extraordin.
ary gift made by Josiah Gorham, an
aged resident of that place to his
niece and hOusekeepeT, Mrs. Louise
Pyatt, the gift being his entire prop
erty, consisting of 800 acres of land
valued at S175 an acre. Mrs. Pyatt
will have a hard time retaining the
gift, however, as GOrham's son Henry,
who lives in Champaign. has filed q
suit in the circuit court, charging Mrs
Pyatt with obtaining the property by
undue influence. 1t is only two months
ago that the woman invited her aged
uncle to come from Champaign, where
he had been living with his son, to
establish a home in the village Of
Homer, where she could care for him,
He readily consented, as did the son,
who, however, demanded a contract
from her in regard to compensation.
This was agreed to, but for some rea-
son was never written out Rev. o.
K. Doney, Christian minister, walked
into the Citizens bank at Homer and
told the cashier. Perle Virgins, who
attended TO the business affairs Of
Josiah GOrham, that Mr.. Gorham had
made over his farm to Mrs. Pyatt,
who would devote a part of it to for.
eign missionary work in the Christian
church. Virgins communicated with
the son, Henry Gorham, and the latter
at once instituted suit He will allege
that the old man is incapable of at.
tending to his own affairs, and that
he did not know what he was doing.

ence among savages who looked upon
white man for the first time when
they saw him. He also brings details
of the killing Of Edward Bolton, the
governor Of the district of Davao, who
was slain several months ago by a
native chieftain.
When the adVentuTeT seven years
ago, alone and unattended, one day
pushed aside the jungle growth TO
gaze into the painted faces of a horde
Of savages, he was startled But the
saVages were more frightened than
he. They fed at sight of him. It
took some time, but finally Cook be-
came friendly with the timid tribes
men. Eventually he became their
leader. He led them in their tribal
fights. He adjusted their differences.
'Tt was a small tribe, the Gala
games, that l found myself among"
said Cook. They numbered 200
and were constantly at war with other
tribes. They lived on dog meat, alli-
gators and snakes. I only partook of
their vegetable cOncOctions.
"The Calaganes have strange GUS
toms. The men are not allowed to
cut their hair until they are married.
The headgear worn by the tribesman
indicates the number of men he has
killed. When 1 first went to live with
the tribe they brought the heads of
their victims to their village and dis
played them on poles about their
huts. There is no longer any head
hunting among them. They are agri-
culturists."
