HARTMAN ESTATE APPRAISAL
Wall Street Guesses Its Value Range from
 to $15O,0OO,O0O

New York, Sept. S0-mterest in Wall street is directed toward the probable value of the estate of E. H. Hartman pending the appraisal of his property by the state to fix the amount of inheritance taxes.
 Under the legal procedure for trans fer of the estate, the will must be filed for probate in the county i'll which he had his official residence. The estate must also be appraised in the county seat of Orange county.
 Upon filing, the judge issues citation or notices, to all relatives or those in- terested naming a day for probate. Usually this is within the next ten days or less; if the citations must be published six weeks is the least pos- sible time allowed. Before this set date. any objections. on the part of relatives or guardians must be filed with the clerk of the surrogate's court.
 If there are no objections, the will is offered for probate in the surro-

gates court on that day; after that any process against the estate must be by civil suit.
 Appraisement, made by state officers in the county in which the will Is probated, is generally done within six months, the law allowing per cent. discount if it is finished within that time. The amount of the inheritance tax is 1 per cent. upon the value of the estate; if left to collateral rela- tives, the tax is assessed at per cent Harriman's estate is in the per cent class Exemptions are made upon estates whose total value is less than $10,000 and upon all bequests to church or charitable institutions.
 Estimates of Harriman's private fortune range from $20, ,000 to s15O, ,000, 900. Those who believe that the value of his estate has been large ly overestimated, point out that Har- rilnan, like others of his associates, at times took tremendous losses as well as profits.

TAFT o. KS NOMINATION
 OF 5ANNARD FOR MAYOR.
President Thinks That He Is Just the Man to Give New York Great Ad- rninistration.

New York, Sept BOA message from President Taft expressing the hope that Otto T. Barnard. the repub- lican nominee, will be elected mayor of New York city, was received today by Representative Herbert Parsons, chairman of the New York republican committee. The message came from Salt Lake City and read as follows: Hon. Herbert Parsons, Nj. C., New
 York City:
 q am just in receipt of your des- patch advising me that Otto T. Ban nard has been nominated for mayor of New York city I sincerely hope he will be elected, and not only because he is a republican, and not because of any mere party considerations, but because I know he will give to the people of the city of New York such an administration as they have not seen for many a year.
 Tt is a comfort to be able to bear testimony to his disinterested patriot ism. his great administrative ability, his broad minded common sense, cou- pied with the highest government ideals. An intimate friendship of 30 years enables me to bear witness to his high character as a man and his peculiar fitness for the responsible and difficult office for which he has been nominated.

Public and Private Duties.

Generally we are under the impres- sion that mans duties are public, and 8 woman's private. But this is not altogether so. A man has a per sonal work or duty relating to his own home, and public work or duty which is the expansion of the other relating to the state. So a woman has a personal work and duty relating to her own home, and public work and duty which is also the expansion of that-John Ruskin.

True and False Happiness.

True happiness is of a retired na- ture, and an enemy to pomp and noise; 1t arises, in the first place, from the enjoyment of ones self; and in the next, from the friendship and conversation of few select com parions. False happiness loves to be in a crowd, and to draw the eyes of the world upon her. She does not receive any satisfaction from the ap- plause which she gives herself, but from the admiration which she raises in others.-Addison

SCHOOL FOR CONSERVATIVES.
Cincinnati Board of Education Will
Establish One In a Forest.

Cincinnati Board Of Education Will
Establish One In Forest.
The Cincinnati board of education
recently adopted resolution, intro
duced by President J. M. Withrow.
providing for the establishment of a
forest school," where children suffer
ing from tuberculosis or exposed to
the danger of the dread disease will
be taken care of. The resolution di-
reefs the building committee, together
with the superintendent Of schools and
the health officer, Ito investigate and
report upon the feasibility Of estab-
fishing forest school where such
children may be kept in school with
surroundings best adapted for their
instruction and for the return and
preservation of their health"
Dr. Withrow's plans are farreach-
Ing. He proposes that the forest school
shall be located somewhere out on the
hilltops or even in the country. He
is now considering a site in College
Hill Once the school is established
arrangements will be made for taking
care of the children. They are to be
taken to the school at 7:30 in the morn
ing and kept there until 6 o'clock in
the evening. The transportation will
be paid for by the board of education.
A kitchen will be established in con-
nection with the school, and the chill
dren will be fed also at the expense of
the board. Every endeavor is to be
made to keep the children outdoors,
the lessons being conducted in the
open whenever the weather permits.
After the school has been given trial
1t is probable that tents will be put up.
so that the children can even sleep in
the open air.
This will be the first institution of
the kind in the United States. There
are a few such institutions in Ger
many, and the results they accomplish
are said to be wonderful Every mem
Der Of the board was enthusiastic over
the matter. 81 think it is the most
humane thing we have it in our power
to do" said Member Emil Pollak.

GRANTS CABIN A MUSEUM.
Augustus Busch to Collect There All
the Generals Relics He Can Find.


the Generals Relics He Can Find.
Augustus A. Busch, who recently
bought the old home Of Ulysses S.
Grant, on the Gravois road, in St
Louis county, Mo-, known as the
"Grant farm" has converted it into a
model game preserve, says st. Louis
dispatch.
The famous log cabin, which was
carried around the country for exhibit
ton, now occupies position on the
farm overlooking the Gravois road. 1t
will be opened to the public as a mu-
scum. 1t is the intention Of Mr.. Busch
to collect as many Grant relics as pos
sible and restore them to the cabin.
The cabin itself is as General Grant
left it, except that a few logs have
been cut out of an inside partition.
The old spring house, where the gen
eral kept his butter, eggs, milk and, it
is rumored, his liquor, which was said
to be the best to be found in the state,
has been preserved in it's entirety. A
fence of musket barrels that saw serv-
fee in the civil war surrounds the
cabin. A veteran who served under
Grant is caretaker.
To the right of the cabin and short
distance away stands the former home
of Mrs. Grant, two story stone house
typical of that period. The large barns
and other buildings put up afterward
under the personal supervision Of Gen
eral Grant are in their original state.

For The Farmer.

Potato and turnip parings boil
ed and mixed with the morning
feed are excellent for laying
hens.
A tablespoonful of corn-meal
may be fed to breeding ewes if
they are in rather thin flesh, but
be creful with corn as it is too
heating.
Do not shear your sheep too
early. If the season of '09 is
anything like last year, late and
cold, a hint in time may not
come amiss.
Every dollar added to the av-
erage income from the dairy cow
in the United States adds over
$40, 100000 to the nations pro-
duction of wealth.
To make the greatest profit
the farmer must get the maxi
mum yield of milk from his COWS;
this can only be done by liberal
and intelligent feeding.
Last year over %, 100000 bush
els of rice were raised, with
value of $4,000, OOO-29 per cent
above the fve-year average and
it's value % per cent. above.
The ordinary corn or wheat
cookie is described by the De-

mechanical apparatus designed
by Pennsylvania man to take
the place of the ordinary farm
helper. 1t is said the machine
can be installed for 5000, and
that it will do the work of two
men. There are many good
points to the automatic hired
man. 1t will not smoke a pipe
in the barn or chew tobacco be-
hind the kitchen stove. 1t will
not tell wicked stories to the
farmers sons or tell of the
strange things to be seen in the
city. 1t will not take the best
horse out to give it's lady friends
a ride. During the summer the
automatic man will work in the
sun as well as in the shade, and
in the winter it does not lay off
because of misery in the back.
1t can even be made to build the
fire in the morning, which is
something that no human chore-
man thinks of doing.

Cures Dyspepsia;

wealthy people who eat rich and
highly-spiced foods suffer from dys-
pepsia, or, as it is also known, indi-
gestion. The laborer in the street,
the worker in the field also finds him
self victim of this disorder. Among
the very greatest sufferers from it are
women.
Dyspepsia is indicated by constant
feeling of laziness, by loss of appetite and
troubled sleep, by sour stomach and dis
tress after eating, by bad complexion and
There is no surer and speedier cure for
this trouble than DR.. Caldwelps Syrup

stomach that he had had for forty years,
or until the lucky day that he heard Of
Joel Adams, of Montgomery, Ala, after

These are only few of the many. But
it is not expensive to be cured with this
grand remedy, as it can be bought at any
drug store in 50-cent or 81 bottle.
Your very neighbors are probably life
long users of Dr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin,
but if you want to know without expense
what it will do for you personally, send
your name to DR.. Caldwell and he will be
glad to send you free trial bottle. He
is actually anxious to have you make q

gency as constipation, sour stomach in

does not grippe. It is the great children's
