WILL NOT CARRIED OUT.
Son Never Erected Gravestones as
 Father Directed.

Quite complication has arisen ever the settlement of the estate of Tracy Church, who died in the town of Mont vile in 1886. MT. Church left a will in winch he gave the use of his proper ty to his son, Amos Church, and made a provision that gravestones should be erected and care given to his cemetery lot. This provision was not needed and twenty years later the son died.
 The probate court of the district ap- pointed an administrator de bonis non and he secured permisson to sell some of the property to raise money to carry out the terms of the will in regard to the gravestones. Before the work was done, however, the widow Of Amos Church brought suit against the estate for $3,000 for services alleged to have been performed by her for Tracy Church twenty years before.
 The estate, by the way. is not con- sidered worth $3,000.

 Joining with the society this year, as they did last, are the unions of the city, who will conduct no special ex- ercises. but will enter into and enjoy the attractions of the fair. They have sold many tickets, from which they derive benefit. and, like last year, it is claimed that the first will equal the middle day in attendance. The grouSds are in attractive shape and a number of repairs made to the fences and buildings.
 The programme for the three days has many interesting features, for be- sides the display in agricultural hall, the cattle stalls. poultry exhibit and dog show will attract the fanciers in their line. In the afternoon there will, of course. be the concert by Tubbs' band. with Holden's death trap loop and other special attractions.
 The fair is the one big attraction in this end of the state today and there will be hundreds of people pour in from the surrounding towns to en- joy the attractions.
