M'KINLBY ESTATE.
How Il Will Be Divided Among
Member of
Family.

Washington, June g. 6-When Presi-
dent Mckinley was serving his first
term he made his will, and it was wit
messed by George B. Cortelyou, then
his private secretary. and Capt. Charles
Loeftier, doorkeeper in the White
House. Mr.. Mckinley left his entire
estate to his wife during her lifetime,
but at her death it was to be divided
between his brother, Abner, and his
two sisters.
The estate at President Mckinley S
death WAS valued at $500, 600, but it has
increased somewhat since then. Mis-.
Mckinley left large estate of her own
which will 90 to her sister, Mrs. Bar
ber, and the latter children. Some
years ago Mrs. Mckinley inherited a
large fortune from her brother, George
Saxton, who was killed in Canton.
Mrs. Mckinley also received a pension
of IS, 900 a year from the government,
which was more than enough for her
living expenses, so that both her own
fortune and that of her husband are in
tact
Now that Mrs. Mckinley is dead,
the estate of the late president will be
divided between his sisters and his
brothers. daughter. Abner Mckinley,
who would have inherited one third,
died some time ago, and his widow
married again, so his portion will &c

child Mrs Baer was favorite OF

HARTMAN ARRESTED.
He Was Interfering With the Harvard-
Yale Boat Race.

New London, Conn, June 2S.-The
Harvard-Yale boat race was accom-
panied by disagreeable incident. This
was the arrest of E. H. Hartman, the
railroad magnate. by Lieutenant Roscoe
c. Bulmer, President Roosevelt's naval
aid. Lieutenant Bulmer, who was in
charge of the revenue cutters, had warn
ed every boat owner not to follow the
race. The big varsity struggle had
scarcely been started when Mr.. Harrl-
man, in a powerful motor boat, started
to follow the race.
Lieutenant Bulmer and Mr.. Schweppe,
chairman of the regatta committee, in
the committees boat, the Arrow, re-
peatedIy warned Mr.. Hartman to stop
his engine and get out of the course. Mr..
Hartman not only paid no attention TO
them, but took a position right along
side of the referees boat and held 1t. Off
nailed for a launch and footed the reve-
nue. cutter whistle, which finally caused
Mr.. Hartman to look around. 5
You are under arrest, SIR" shouted
Lieutenant Bulmer, You Will give
yourself up to this man. who will take
you aboard the Gresham to await my
orders"
Then 1t was found that the man in the
motor boat was Mr.. Hartman. Mr..
Schweppe of the regatta committee was
angry and shouted to Mr.. Hartman in
terms that the latter could not mistake.
The millionaire levelled his forefinger at
Mr.. Schweppe and yelled back
young man, will see you later"
Schweppe's friends aboard the Arrow
gave Mr. Hartman a gentle laugh Mr..
Hartman saw no more. of the race. but
was detained as an ordinary prisoner
aboard the revenue cutter Gresham un-
til after tbs race was over. Then Lieu
tenant Bulmer went aboard the Gresham
and released Mr., Hartman, but ordered
his boat tied up at the navy yard, The
incident cost Mr.. Hartman a fine of

John Harkines, n 19-Year-Old Boy,
Takes His Own Life.

John Harkines. aged 10 years. COM
mitted suicide just before noon today
by drinking carbolic acid. He died
almost instantly, and was found by his
mother a few minutes later.
Harkines lived with his mother and
one sister at 1854 Santa Fe street in
the south least part of town. His
mother and sister know no reason for
his suicide as he has not been des-
pondent, and they knew of no trouble
of any kind. He seemed in good
spirits few minutes before his death.
He drank the carbolic acid from
teacup, and Coroner Keith, who was
called by the family. found acid in the
cup. but failed to locate the bottle
from which it was poured, and there
fore had no means of deciding the
amount of poison swallowed by Har-
kines.
AS it is plain case of suicide, it is
proba BILE that no inquest will be held.

ing had progressed some time the

street, where the Olearys have been
living since they moved to Topeka a
few weeks ago. and found the house
barricaded. After knocking down two
doors they reached the room where Mrs.
O'Leary was hiding. When she discoy-
cred that they were officers she apollo
gized for her actions, saying that she
was afraid 1t was her husband coming
after the children. She did not appear
to be insane, and came to the county
Jail without protest, except at having
her children taken from her. She was
humored in this by Sheriff Wilkerson,
who let the children stay with her at
the jail The woman told a story of
mistreatment at the hands of her hus-
band and of several attempts he had
made to take the children away from
her.

FACTS ABOUT FLOUR
Made White by Leaving Out the Part
Which Helps Digest.

Modern methods of milling separate
the parts of the wheat berry that con-
tain the diastatic element, and furnish
only the white flour made up almost
entirely of starch.
One of the principal elements need
ed to digest this starch has been left
out in the process. and therefore the
person who eats much white bread is
almost sure to have intestinal troubles,
for the starch does not digest properly
and must, of necessity. decay, and
cause all sorts of trouble.
Grape-Nuts food. on the contrary. is

ley. and the processes of digestion as

ed as exactly as possible. in a me-
chanical way, by the use of moisture,
time, and warmth. No chemicals or
other ingredients are used, but Eimple

A handful of Grape-Nuts held to the

the food agrees with the weakest

quantities at one meal. for it is con-

NOT QUITE SIX THOUSAND
Washburn Needs That Much More to
Reach Coveted Mark.

One more day in which to complete
the campaign for $751; and $500
yet to be raised is the proposition
which now confronts the Washburn
canvassing committee. The work dur
ing the past twenty-four hours has
been quite successful although it has
not brought in as much money as
should have been done. With the
meeting tomorrow noon the active
work of the committee closes and the
final report of the committee will be
made at that time. This afternoon
and tomorrow morning the committee
will endeavor to round in all the sub
scriptions which are hanging fire.
At the meeting tomorrow which will
be the last one 1T is desired that every
member of the committee who has
done any work in the campaign will
be present and make his final report
This meeting should bring out all the
members of the committee. The meet
ing will be of the nature of a con-
gratulatory meeting that is if the final
six thousand dollars is raised between
now and tomorrow noon. Otherwise
it will be somewhat of a consolation
meeting. An extensive repast will be
prepared for all the members and they
will at that time be relieved from fur
ther work in the campaign.
The ultimate success of the cam
paign as whole has yet to be seen. A
good deal depends upon the amount
which will be turned in through the
Washburn day profits which have
been promised by the leading Topeka
merchants. If these come up to ex-
pectations the seventy-five thousand
dollars stands in a good position to
eliminate successfully.
At the meeting today $2,503.25 was
reported as the result of the soliciting
of the past twenty-four hours. This
brings the total sum up to date to
s69,191.75. The standing of the can
vass up till noon today is shown by the
following figures:
