WITH HAReRAvE's WILL

important Paper Disclosed With Fill
ing OF Richard Hargrave's Will Yes
terday-With Characteristic Fidelity.
"Honest Dick" Gave Serious Thought
to His Great Probate Practice and
the Welfare Of His CIentes.
One Of the highest pliments ever
paid by past master and recognized
expert in special and highly impor-
tant branch of legal practice, came 10
F l.. Meeker. one Of the younger mem
bers of the Marshall county bar, upon
the death of Richard w Hargrave,
whose position as the leading probate
lawyer of central Iowa had long been
pre- eminent, and wh3 had practically
absorbed the probate practice Of this
section of Iowa by reason of exper
knowledge and high attainment in that
special line of law practice. When the
papers of Mr.. Hargrave were examined
after his demise. it was found that hs
had been for years carefully preparing
TO leave his large and extensive pro-
bate practice in safe hands, and in
charage of a talented lawyer prepared
under his own immediate training tc
receive and carry it on.
Along with his will and other valu-
able documents found at the cour-
house, was the following importan
letter signed by his own hand ane
showing that when the knowledge o
a failure of strength and powers cam
to Mr.. HarTave, he set about protect
ing as best he might the many and i'm
portant trusts he held for his larg
clientele. The letter, which follows

OLD STAMP TAX.
Unusual Activity Observed in the
Federal Bureau of Printing.

Washington, March 14.-Unusual ac-
tivity at the Bureau of Engraving and
Printing in the installation of machines
for the printing of stamps and the work
ing overtime of the entire stamp print
ing force gives color to the belief that
the new tariff bill will contain clauses
re-enacting the stamp taxes that were
levied during the Spanish-American
war period. For about ten days the
bureau has been busy printing millions
of stamps and it is believed that the
bureau officials anticipate or have heen
advised by the Treasury Department
that the task will fall on bureau to pro-
duce adhesive stamps for use on pro-
prietary medicines, perfumery, chew
ing gum, checks, notes and other COM
mercial paper, light wines, etc. Mechan-
les have been installing stamp printing
machines and force has been kept
busy for the entire twenty-four hours

Western Drama at the Avenue.

The Cowpuncher proved to be a
big drawing card at the Avenue Theatre
yesterday, the house being sold out both
afternoon and night. The Cowpunch-
err" is by Hal Reid and is true to Western
life. There are SO many thrillers that
the audience is in a continuous uproar.
The story of the play is about young
heiress, who owns big ranch and who
is captured by Mexican The plot
leads the captive and the hero, cow
puncher, into a den of cattle thieves.
The hero offers to give his life for that
of the girl, and this offer is granted.
He is doomed to die, but in the nick of
time a young Irish lad dressed as bear
releases the hero and he is free to return
to the ranch and to the heiress, with
whom he is in love. The gang of
thieves is cleaned up and everything
turns out lovely.

eowpuncher, completely captivates the
audience in his realistic portrayal of the
true cowboy. William Pfar, in the yil-.
