The hearing in the contest of the
latest discovered will to the ]. W.
Young estate is progressing very
slowly, and from present indications
witnesses will be giving their testi-
mony before County Judge Gilliland
for several days. Mrs. Warner has
not finished with her witnesses yet,
and probably will not before tomor-
row night, and it is certain that the
witnesses for the other heirs will con-
sumo several days.
1t is evident from the line of cross
examination which Attorney James A.
Fee has been handing out that an eff
fort is to be made to impeach the
testimony of Mrs. Della Stacey and
S. v. Knox, the two principal wit
nesses for Mrs Warner. Knox's name
appears as witness to the will,
While Mrs. Della Stacey has been
called to prove that her father, whose
name appears as the other witness,
actually did place his mark on the
document. With their testimony i'm
peached the work Of proving the will
a forgery will be greatly simplified.
,Mrs. Stacey Makes Admissions.
Mrs. Stacey was compelled to ad-
nit while on the stand that she was
twice arrested in the city of La
Grande on the charge of adultery.
She also made other damaging admis-
sions concerning her life in recent
years which will be used against her

Magazine for March: ..
Each African colony has game laws
based on the prevalence or scarcity
of certain. species of animals: Where
Mr.. Roosevelt is. going to hunt it costs
two hundred and fifty dollars for
huntsman's license. i. This license, UNI

Each white man-rffle hunter-that
hunts in East Africa is allowed TO- Kill
two of each Of the following animals:
Elephants (tusks Weighing not less
than six pounds), rhinoceri, hippppot-
ami. zebra, oryx callotis, oryx beisa,

hartebeest, impara, reedbuck, duiker,
klipspinger, steinbuck waterbuck,
wildebeest, Coke's hartebeest, bush
buck, paa, lesser Koodoo, and the ger

Should an extra license be desired
for the privilege Of hunting more AMI
mails than the ordinary licenses allow
1888 will secure the right to kill or
capture an extra one of each Of the
following: Bull elephant, either a
bull giraffe, rhinocerous or bull Gland,
two zebras, wilde best or water
bucks.
Lions or lepards may be shot with
out a license, as they are classed as
yermin and are very plentiful around
the great lakes, where they do much
damage to the herds of the native
chiefs, sometimes even carrying on
the herders.
