TWO MEN HOLD DEEDS
TO THE SAME FARM
Especial to The Sentinel. }

Greeley, Colo, Dec. 1S.-A case
which even the attorneys agree to be
much of a tangle is on in the district
court for the purpose of determining
which of two deeds, one in possession
of Alfred Stewart of Platteville and
the other held by Alfred Reichard,
inspector for a coal company in DEN
yer, is the true one.
The case involves the possession
of 160-acre farm seven miles north
of Platteville, valued at $4,000. The
title first stood in the name of j. c.
Legree, who mortgaged it to Arthur
kilgore. who conveyed it to Matte
b. Wright of Erie by warranty deed.
She mort gagged it to Isaac Legere for
81 900, failed to pay this mortgage
and Legere sold the mortgage to AL
fred Reichard. The latter foreclosed
and obtained a sheriff's deed While
this was going on Alfred Stewart
sued Peter Legere. brother of Isaac
Legere, obtained judgment against
him and levied on the land, claiming
that while it stood in the name of
Isaac Legere, II was Peter Legeres $
in fact. a sale was had under the
execution and Stewart bought the
property at sheriff's sale. The deeds
held by Stewart and Reichard are in
conflict.

From the tone of the letter it
would lead anyone to believe that the
mother and son are also separated
for she goes on to say that she is the
one who deserves to get the life in
surance. etc. if there is any.
Undoubtedly the man had his
faults. if what she says. is true, but
the attitude of both mother and son.
is that of relatives warning over the
property of an estate and the inter
est of both seems centered on the
insurance policy and possible pecun-
iary gain.
The wife states that twelve years
ago Geo. Linton ran away with an
other woman and that she had not
heard from him until lately when he
wrote her stating he was in destitute
circumstances and in need of aid. But
their is nothing in the way of evil
dence to verify the fact that he ever
had relations with another woman
or to show that he ever received aid
from his wife or son.
The matter has been placed in the
hands of an attorney here. who will
attempt to collect the insurance from
the company for the wife. however
the agent of the company, when here
stated it as his opinion, that the
policy would not be paid.

LETTER FROM Mr.. sRINsoN

To the Democrats Of Marion County:
My opposition, not having a single
argument as to why l should not be
elected superintendent, has been in
dulging In certain suggestions, intend
ed to draw votes through sympathy.
The voter is told that Mr.. BrinsOn has
a good position at a good salary.
That, to some extent, is true. The
superintendent Office is a much bet
ter one in salary, and for me from the
fact that it will relieve me from the
close confinement of the school room
for more than twenty years, a good
portion OF the tine summer as we'll as
winter. Is not 4 man capable of hold
ing a good position the kind of man
the county needs and you want for
superintendent?
Then il is said that Mr.. Brinson has
been teaching out of the county. Yes,
after serving the public schools of the
county for thirteen years and train
ing a large number of her teachers
in summer normal work, l was called
to the East Florida Seminary at
Gainesville. | returned to Orange
Springs each summer for my sum-
mer school, which was very success
full When the Buchanan bill abolish
ed the seminary my services were in
immediate demand by Rollins College.
During all this time l have been a
qualified citizen of Marion and no
where else, feeling a sentiment all the
while that | would like to finish my
educational work as superintendent Of
my home county. Judging from ex-
pressions from all parts of the county
this will be my time by large major
ity. There is absolutely nothing in
these suggestions-they are mere
froth.
With the voter it should be simply
matter Of securing the man best
adapted to give a creditable admins
tration of the office for four, eight or
twelve years.
Respectfully yours,
]. H. BRTNsoN.

THE MIRACLE OF STRING

In the spring a fuller crimson comes
upon the robins breast;
In the spring the wanton lapwing gets
himself another crest;
In the spring a Iivelier iris changes on
the FURNISHED dove;
In the spring a young mans fancy
lightly turns to thoughts of love" "
However, these things are not the
only harbingers of spring, for all
around us we see the putting on of a
new life, the bursting forth of buds
and blossoms, the new garments

kissed Florida as in more northern
climates, but even here we see chang
es, and observe vegetation putting on
new foliage.
We grow accustomed, year after
year, to seeing this miracle, hence
we grow dull and unreceptive. We
take for granted all the sweet and
beautiful truths that God is constantly
giving us through nature, and fail to
catch the meaning of many things.
Spring comes to us with smiling face
and open arms, caressing us out of
our dreary moods and healing our
hurts. How delightful, on these beau
tiful spring days, to get away from the
city's turmoil, and, wandering far
away into the heart Of some lonely
forest, cast our tired bodies down up-
on mother earth and let peace and
healing steal into our troubled hearts.
How one who loves nature does long

away the pain and longing and tumult
Of life. We feel as if LIES burdens

IRVINE WAS ONLY TESTING

Some weeks ago the newspapers of
south Florida were engaged in a spir-
tied controversy criticising F. W. IT.
vine Of Lake City, candidate for rail-
road commissioner, for an attempt TO
play the galleries." by refusing to pay
his railroad fare from Plant City to
Tampa on account of the crowded con-
ditions of the trains during the state
fair. Mr.. Irvine called on the Tribune
some days ago and made a statement
that entirely discredits any account
that shows that he was seeking popu-
larity at the expense of the Atlantic
Coast Line. LAS a matter of fact, -
train, and, on account of not being
able to procure a seat, stated to the
conductor, in a spirit Of levity, that
under the laws of the state he could
not legally collect fares from passen-
gers who were not provided with
seats" Mr.. Irvine further states that
the conductor took offense at his at
tempt at fun and made rather insolent
remarks concerning his attitude, and
rejoined by stating that he was am
ply able to pay his fare, and that he
had no time for foolishness. This
provoked an animated controversy and
the newspaper ''rOasts" followed. If
this is a fact, and the Tribune has no
reason to doubt it, the newspapers
that have been criticising the pOpu-
lar Lake City candidate for railroad
commissioner, have done so unwilling
ly and the Tribune for one is glad of
the opportunity to set the gentleman
right before the fair-minded people of
south FIOrida.-Tampa Tribune.

Mr.. J. GILBERT STEVENS

Every state rejoices in being the
mother Of children that make her
name illustrious among the nations.
Greece is remembered as the moth
er of Homer, Rome of Caesar, Eng
land of Shakespeare, Scotland of
Burns, and France of Napoleon.
In all civilized lands we erect mon
uments to our military and civic he
roes, and cherish their memories in
song and story and verse.
Following the example of nations
and states. our counties and towns
honor those whom they have sent out
into the world TO become the archi-
tects of their own fortunes if they
build well, even though the sphere OF
their usefulness may not be so great
as those who have won larger ap-
plause on a larger stage.
Marion county has a host of young
men and young women whom she has
sent out into the world to make a
name for themselves, and who are sue
ceeding so splendidly that she is
justly proud of them.
We take pleasure in mentioning one
of these, and especially as he comes
of an old friend of this paper.
Mr.. J. Ebert Stevens, since becom-
ing a citizen of Crystal River, four
years ago, has taken such a promi-
nent stand in business and in the bet
ter social circles, that he has been
hOnOred by being elected mayor of
his adopted city, which honor he is
wearing with becoming dignity.
Realizing and recognizing his abil-
ity and fitness for yet higher honors
his fellow citizens are now supporting
him for clerk of the circuit court, the
most important and lucrative office in
the county.
Mr.. Stevens antecedents are all
right, and what is better, he is living
up to them.
He is a son of Mr.. John w. Stevens
of Fort Mccoy, than whom our coun-
ty has no more honest nor faithful cit
iZen.
Mr.. Stevens was educated in the
common schools of Marion county
and after his graduation was himself
a teacher for five years, and his rec
ord shows that he was success in
the school room.
Mr.. Stevens worked in the tax as
SCISSORS Office for three years and as
sisted the tax collector at different
times, and the knowledge he obtained
of the routine work of these two of
fees will aid him in his duties as
clerk of the circuit court, for the
clerks office is intimately connected
with all the other Offices of the coun-
".
Mr.. Stevens is a bright business
man, an apt scholar and is as true to
the higher callings of citizenship as
the needle to the pole.
His Marion county friends are wish
ing him success in his race.

GENIUS AND OLD AGE

Bishop Fallows, who is 70 years
old, has told his church brothers that
people ought to be ashamed" that
they do not live to be at least 100;
that 80, instead of As, should be the
prime Of life.
w. A. Norman Dorian, in the Cen
fury Magazine for April, gives a cat
alOgue of genius embracing 400 rec
ords of men famous in literature, sci
enCe, art and war, and he finds that
whereas they STRUCK their gait" at
an average age of "a, men like Won
Moltke, John Wesley, Michael Angelo,
Theophrastus, Tzaak Walton, John
Adams, Pope Leo XIII, Cornaro, Fon-
tinelle, Titan and Chevreul, showed
that they could keep up the pace well
into the nineties and past the cen
fury mark. MANY of the finest
achievements in business, statesman
ship, literature, and in all activities
have been wrought by men long past
co." says Mr.. Dorian.
DR.. Osler was, of course, misinter-
preted. He said the foundations and
superstructure of a useful life were
built before 40, not that the edifce
was not habitable after that period.
Ellie MetchnizOff reinforces Bishop
Fallows' view about the practicability
of living to be old if men will kill
harmful bacteria by taking daily dos
es of Tactic acid germs. The leading
dietists are busy demonstrating their
theory that a like result may be gain
ed by abstemious living. Carlyle said
that the biography Of the world was
the history of its heroes. But if the
lives of the present generation could
be prolonged to beyond 100, it might
be thought that history would change
more rapidly than in the previous six
generations of men. both heroes and
