court deems it proper to instruct you
further as to what the term undue in
fluence" in law implies. In the law
regarding wills. in general way, it
may be said that undue influence
means an influence that obtains do
minion over the mind of the testator
to an extent that destroys free agency
and constrains him to do, against his
will, what he would not otherwise do.
No rule can be we'll laid down or stat
ed as to what constitutes undue influ-
ence in this class of cases. so as to ap-
ply generally further than this: that in
order to make good will, man must
be a free agent and feel at liberty to
carry out his own wishes and DESIRES
The fraud or undue influence that
would render will invalid, must be
connected with the execution of the
will and operating at the time it is
made. Any influence, restraint,
threats or intimidation brought to
bear on a testator which he has not the
strength of mind to resist, If exercised
so as to coerce him against his desires
and purpose into the making of his
will or any of it's provisions, is undue

Are Expected.

Secretary E. NJ. Haas OF the Com
mercial club is in receipt of a letter
from Mark Thistlethwaite of this city,
private secretary of Governor Thomas
r. Marshall, declining an invitation
to the governor to attend the club
banquet May 4. The club is much
disappointed that Governor Marshall
cannot be here at that time and will
try to arrange more convenient date
for him to address the club member
ship. ..-.
Invitations have been extended TO
several prominent men of national re-
pute to attend the banquet and make
response to toasts. AS vet no replies
have been received by Mr.. Haas. The
standard of the previous banquets,
both in respect to speakers and the
repast will be maintained
No final arrangements have been
made for the banquet as yet. The
details will probably be left to special
committees and more particularly to
the arrangements committee, to be
announced at the board meeting next
Monday evening.
Would Like to be Here.
The letter received from Mr. This
tlethwaite declining Governor Marsh
airs invitation to attend the banquet
is as follows.
Dear Sir
Governor Marshall directs me TO
tell You that there is no city in the
state that ne could visit with more
pleasure than Richmond, and that for

Will Be Submitted to the Board
OF Directors of the Com
mercial Club for Their Con-
sideration.
WILL BE THE BASIS
OF CLUBS ACTION
Will Recommend improved
Fire Department and Some
Changes in the System Of
Water Works Company.

OF more than usual importance will
be the report of the committees on in
surance of the Commercial club to be
announced at the board of directors
meeting next Monday evening. On it
will devolve the work of securing bet
ter fire protection for the city, both in
respect to additional fire fighting ap-
paratus and improvements. and addi-
ton to the present system of the Rich
mond City Water Works.
Secretary E. NJ. Haas of the club is
daily receiving Information in regard
to the water works systems of the diff
ferent cities of the United States. In
the majority of instances, the replies
made to Mr.. Haas include copies Of the
city ordinances controlling the water
works systems, and the maximum and
minimum rates charged. In many of
the cities the size of Richmond and.
in some cases larger cities, the water
works is owned by the municipalities.
This information is to be used by this
committee.
Franchise Expires 1912.
AS the local water works company's
franchise expires in 1912. the commit
tees may at that time recommend some
action to be taken in the granting of a
new franchise which will incorporate
it's own ideas. The purpose of the
committee will be solely to bring the
fire protection of the city up to the re.
quirements of the Dean schedule as
near as possible.
1t has been recommended by the in
surance companies that . new pump
be installed at the pumping station; q
new main laid and additional hydrants
be installed by the water works com
pany.
A pamphlet containing the rates
charged by 375 water works compa
MES in the United States, compiled by
Dow r. Gwinn, OF Terre Haute. has
been received by Mr.. Haas. A portion
of the companies listed are private cor
porations while the remainder are op
Grated by municipalities. The loca
company's rates ranges from 6 cent.
for the minimum to 30 cents for thu
maximum. It's rates compare very
favorably with those of other cities
In fact, in several instances they ar,
much lower than the rates of other pri
vate corporations. In few instances
the rates of private corporations art
as high as 50 cents.

influence within the meaning of the
law. To avoid will on the ground
of undue influence, it should appear
from the evidence that it was obtained
by means of influence amounting to
moral coercion. destroying free agen-
cy, or by importantly which could not
be resisted, SO that the testator was
constrained to do that which was
against his actual will and which in
fluence he was unable to withstand or
too weak to resist. In considering the
question, therefore, it is essential to
ascertain, as far as practicable, the
power of coercion upon the one hand
and the liability to it's influence upon
the other.

TECUMSEH, Neb., Aug. M.-(Special)-A
meeting of the committee on drainage in
Johnson county, and a few others espe-
cially interested, was held at the law
office of L. c. Chapman Thursday after
noon. The proposed drainage district was
named Drainage District No. / OF Johnson
county, Nebraska, and organization was
perfected for twenty years. Corrections
were made in the boundary lines Of the
proposed district by cutting off that part
that included and extended north and west
of the junction of the two forks of the
Nemaha river, which is west of Sterling
and some two and a half miles from the
west county line. Sections 81 and 3 Of
Sterling precinct were added TO the pro-
posed district. The proposed district as
it now stands extends from the forks west
Of Sterling to the southeast corner Of the
county. five hundred dollars were raised
as a fund sufficient to carry on the pro-
ceedings of organization through the dis
trict court and the attorney for the district,
Mr.. Chapman, was instructed to push this
work to the best Of his ability. This means
that the proceedings will probably come UP
in the October term Of the Johnson county
district court and will no doubt be taken
care Of at that session.

Gregory Of Reynolds, jefferson county, los
a valuable team Of horses in a peculiar
manner yesterday afternoon. He had been

team broke loose and dashed toward town
at breakneck speed. While going at a ter
rifle speed the team dashed Into the broad
side Of a freight car standing on the Bur
lington tracks at Reynolds. The momen-
tum OF the load was so great that when
the compact came the horses were literally
crushed to death between the car and load
OF sand. Just a couple Of days previous to
the accident Mr.. Gregory had been offered

NORTH PLATTE, Neb.. Aug. 9O-(Spe-
cial)-A mass meeting Of citizens was held
at the court house last night for the pur-
pose of organizing for the campaign 20
vote water bonds at the election to be held
next Tuesday. 1t was one of the best at
tended mass meetings ever held in. North
Platte and enthusiasm was rampant.
Speeches were made by a number of bust
ness men and other citizens OF the town
upon the water works question, and every
speaker was applauded strongly. Persons
representing the other side were invited to
attend and : esent arguments, but no one
showed up. An organization was effected
by choosing an executive committee of eight
members, who will have charge Of the
campaign, Because of the fact that the
law requires two-thirds Of the votes in or
der to carry the election, the citizens
deemed an organization important, because
the water works company is thoroughly or
ganized and doing all within its power to
defeat the issuing OF the bonds.
