Will Contest Her Will.

Cincinnati, Aug 29.-The will of
Mrs. Catherine Harris, who left near
ly half million dollars to a half
brother residing ia Topeka, Kan, is to
be contested by her nephews, it was
announced dnesday.
Mrs. Harris was the widow Of Col
Leonard Harris, former mayor and in
ternal revenue collector and a strong
political loader, and managed her
eKl estate.
The appraisers reported Wednesday
that no part Of the estate is taxable,
that it docs not swl a single bit Of
bad paper, real estate nor a bond. A
remarkable fact in connection with
this estate is that it does not yield a
cent of taxes for the public treasury,
as Mrs. Harris had invested only in
non-taxable stocks and in securities
that stood far above par

MANY NUTS TO CRACK
The Building of a Hospital Brings
Up Oceans of Problems

When the Hospital Board accepted
the responsibilities of building, they
fully expected to undertake the pro-
verbal thousand and one things"
Since they entered into the work, now
ever, at least twenty-five more have
been added, and new ones are bobbing
up every day.
The latest nut to crack is, will the
heating apparatus be equipped with one
or two hoilers?" The architects ad-
wise two, to guard against any acct
dent that might happen in cold weatn-
er, and tine further fact that having
two boilers, the plant can be operated
more economically. But where is
the board going to get the extra $500
or $500 necessary to put in the sec
ond boiler? That is the question.
But this is not the only question.
The floor in the operating room should
be of the best and most approved ma
terial. And the best and most ap-
proved material is expensive. Then
the roof, should be of tile, but anyone
VINO mas had experience with paying
for tile roofs will agree with the board,
that tile roof cannot be picked up
on a bargain counter, or at mill end
sale.
These are only few of the tnIngs
that occupied the time and attention
of the board for three hours at meet
ing held in the Y. NJ. c. A. building
last night. Finally, after doing the
best that tine board could suggest,
these problems, together with lot
of others, were referred to the advis-
DRY board of physicians to be taken
up with the building committee and
determined at once.
AS soon as the necessary changes
can be made in the plans and specI-
fications, bids will be asked for, and
the work of bulIding pushed along.
At the meeting also the offer of the
Kings Daughters to furnish one OIL
the public wards in the hospital was
accepted with thanks, placed on file
and referred to the committee on lur-
nishings. This is a splendid gift from
a worthy organization, and is appre-1
ciated by the management,
The annual meeting Of the members
of the Hospital Association will occur
on the second Monday in March.
Three directors are to be elected, and
every one who mas given at least IS
to the hospital during the past year
will be entiued to vote.

AMONG THE CHURCHES
Items of Interest Cleaned from Pull
pit and Sanctuary.
At Christian Church.

A good audience greeted Rev. Zendt
at both services Sunday. He made a
brief report of his four weeks work
at Burlington. Some forty-six have
united with the church during his
stay. The high tide of the Sunday
union meeting in that city a year ago
made it difficult to arouse anything
like a general interest, although he
spoke to large audiences almost ey-
cry evening. The subject of his
morning discourse was the Evan
gelical Mission of the Church" Not
only the specific command but the
genius of all of Christ's teaching is
to spread the news, carry the mes
sage to the ends of the earth at what
ever cost. The mission Of the church
is in no sense political Church his
tory tells us of the failures along
that line. / is not to become So
cial club and stop there. 1t is more.
No church can prosper permanently
which spends all of its energies on
itself alone. The real mission of the
church is to carry the gospel to ev-
cry individual created in the image
Of God that can be found on the face
of the earth. The plan for leveling
the world with the teachings Of Jesus
has been long since complete. 1t re-
mains with the church now to go
with the message until every son and
daughter of Adam is reached. Two
united by letter and two made the
confession and were baptised at the
evening service.

The committee found between one

priation, which the committee reduc-
ed to $101,200 by striking out $4,000
for a switch, $4,000 for painting, and
reducing the appropriation for furni.
ture from $4,000 to $1,000, thing from
$1,000 to $780, and fencing from
81 900 to $500.
Inebriates' Home, Knoxville.
The committee found this institu-
ton at present, at least. something
of white elephant. In its report oc-
ours the following statement:
Knoxville is without doubt the Ell
Dorado of Iowa for those who fall by
the wayside. The hospital has a ca
pacity of 225. We found about $50
inmates. with nothing 10 do but pass
the time away, and grow fat ct the
expense Of the state. The superin-
tendent informs us that 1t costs about
$23 per capita per month to maintain
it in its present method of procedure.
About rs per cent of the inmates are
able bodied men, and are capable of
doing work enough to pay their way"
The committee recommended that
labor be provided for the able bodied
and for that purpose advised the pur-
chase Of land north of the building
upon which there is a stone quarry.
where the inebriates could work, get
ting out and crushing rock for ma
cademizing purposes.
The report says that the superin-
tendent states that only in about 10 per
cent of the cases are permanent ben
efits received. Continuing, the report
says, "There is a class of persons
sent here who do not come under the
Jurisdiction of the institution. A great
many hardened criminals that have
been in the penitentiary, who are
termed 'sleepers' around the cities,
are sent here to be rid Of them The
influence such people have on young
fellows who have gone wrong for the
first time is not the best, and we rec
ommend that this class of patients be
sent to other places"
In conclusion the report says that
the institution is a new one, and the
committee have confidence in the
board of control to adjust things to a
practical business basis as soon as
possible. The committee recon-
mends appropriations aggregating
$4,000.
Normal School, Cedar Falls.
Committee found school well man
aged and recommended appropriation
of 5000 for library, librarian and
