Insane When He Gave Power
of Attorney to Indiana
Trust Company.
DETECTIVES MAKE REPORT
THEY DECLARE THAT iNCIANAP
OILS MILLIONAIRE WHO WE'D
DED ELMA DARE, is MENTALLY
UNBALANCED.

Indianapolis, Ind, Feb. 10. (Spl)-
Information has been received in this
city through detectives in the employ
Of John w. Claypool, who represents
the bene ficiaries in the will of George
Rhodius, who tell pitiful story of
the Indianapolis millionaire, at the
time he signed the power OF attor-
ney which completely turned over to
the Indiana Trust company, his prop
erty in this city, and which power OF
attorney is being vigorously contest
cd by Mr.. CIaypool on the grounds
that Rhodius was physically and men
tally unable to realize the nature of
the instrument he signed.
According to the story of the detec-
tives, George Rhodius was in Pitts
burg, Pa, February 1, in company with
Eima Dare, his alleged wife, Judge
Whallon and CasS Conway, the wo-
mans attorney. They were met by
f.. l.. Adams, who seemed to be en-
ployed to secure a place where there
would be absolute seclusion. On Feb
ruary, 1.-The party was Joined by DR..
Mark Baldwin, of Pittsburg, and DR..
Samuel Ayers, when it is alleged an
examination was made as to the san1-
ty of Rhodius, so that, it is alleged,
they could certify to his sanity at the
time the power OF attorney was sign
ed, turning over his property.
On February 4 the now famous doc
ument was signed in the rooms which
Rhodius and his wife occupied.
1t is stated by the detectives that
they have positive evidence that Rho
di,,S WAS in "a nitiful condition and that
there is no doubt of the fact that Rho
dius having been insane and in a con-
dition which would nulify the effort to
take the control of the property of
Rhodius out of the hands of those
who have had to do with its care for
a number of years.

Miniature MarveIs,

Almost any commonplace object mag
nified under a good lens will reveal as
tonishing and unexpected form, struc-
sture and life. For instance:
Insects of various kinds may be seen
in the cavities of grain Of sand.
Mold is a forest of beautiful roses,
with branches, leaves and fruit
Butterflies are fully feathered.
Hairs are tubes filled with pith and
ornamented on the outside with scales.
The surface of the human body is
covered with scales like a fish A sin
gle grain OF sand would cover $50 Of
these scales. and yet scale covers
about 500 pores. Through these mar
row openings the perspiration forces
itself like water through a sieve.
Each drop of stagnant water con-
tains q world of creatures swimming
with as much freedom as whales in
the sea.-Circle.

Mexican boundary line in the neigh

the Yaqui Indians. They will not have
to hunt very long for all the excite
ment that they need. The Yaquis are
brave. fierce and perfect gluttons for
fighting, as the Mexican government
knows to its cost. Indeed. if there are
any soldiers of fortune out Of work
they can secure the contract Of exter-
minating the Yaquis. They may not

them to set apart certain portion of
work to be accomplished between Sun

share. Children attend school from
daylight until dark, with no recreation
and no recess except that needed for
refreshment. aud this every day in the

Japan's Women ToiIers.

Four-fifths Of the operatives in jap

to the fact that they will work for less

solutely necessary. such as for bosses,
loom fixers, the heaviest card room

entirely a woman's job, as spinning is
with us. The fact that the looms are

considerable advantage to the mills
