COUNTY DOCTOR
FAT FRIED OUT

No more excessive bills will be
paid by the county for medical
service. The new regime is saving
the county about $3.50 per month.
Under the contract with DR.. Nor
rison, which was on mileage
basis and allowed the doctor to
charge 81 per mile one way, both
as county physician and as county
health officer, the county was
called upon to pay on an average
of 5000 to DR.. Morrison for the last
two years This was raised during
the epidemic of scarlet xfever to
$500 per month for the last two
months. DR.. Morrison has pre-.
scented bills aggregating about
$1,000 this month. This includes
his personal account of about $500
and the balance for medicine and
hospital items.
DR.. Barnhardt, the new health
officer, gets $160 per month and
pays his own expenses, and. the
two county physicians, Drs. Webb
and Newell, receive 500 per Inbntf
each.

ABRAHAM GLBBLE HAS
DROPPED FROM SIGHT

Can anyone help the police re-
unite Abraham B. Gibble with his
anxious family?
Away back in Mannheim. Pa,
brothers and sisters are yearning
to hear from him, and father is
fast turning gray watching and
waiting in their old home for his
return. He went away early in
1903 and came way out west to
hunt his fortune. He wrote back
home from time to time until about
year and half ago, then his
cheering communications to
friends and loved ones ceased. He
has never been heard from since.
!. That last letter was written in
the postoffice here in February,
1908. He had been working on a
ranch near Spokane and said he
wanted to go back east, part of
the distance at least, but his money
was in the bank, times were tight,
clearing house certificates were
serving as currency and he could
not get his savings out until the
panic's grip was released.
His brothers and sisters and
some of his old friends have writ
ten letters to him since. Some of
them have been returned, failing to
find Gibble. AS last resort,
Phares B. Gibble, his brother, has
written to the police asking that a
diligent search be made for his
brother Abraham. He says they

But from the day he was in

straight games, and the wall was
heard from coast to coast Every
combination was tried to break the
losing streak, and at last, in des-
peration, collection was taken up
and Snowfall" was hipped back
to Missouri.
Once rid of their mascot, the
Brewers began winning, and the

FIGHT OVER
REDDY'S WILL
CATHOLIC INSTITUTIONS IN
SPOKANE AND SAN DIEGO
CLASH OVER POSSESSION OF
AN OLD MANS ESTATE.

Nearly the whole morning ses-
sion was taken up in Judge Ken
mans court today with the reading
of the dispositions in the Reddy
will case, brought to determine
which of two wills left by William
Reddy was the proper one to ad-
init to probate.
Yesterday Judge KEENAN, heard
the objections of the litigants on
both sides to the filing of the depo-
sitions for the contending parties,
and the dispositions made in favor
of the California will by DR.. A. j.
Elliot was allowed to go ON record,
while the one made by Sister Gen.
ieve Gordon of San Diego was or
dered rejected on the ground that
her name did not appear as a wit
ness in the order signed by the
court for the taking of the testi-
mony.
All the objections of the counsel
for the California will to the filing
of the dispositions in favor of the
Spokane instrument were over
ruled by the court and the same
were ordered filed.
The trial proper was taken up
this morning and an attempt will
be made by the counsel for the
Spokane will to prove that undue
Influence was used on the old man
at San Diego and that he was con-
fined in a sanitarium there and
was of unsound mind. The conten-
ton of the California litigants is
that he simply made another will
and that revoked the Spokane in
etrument, made earlier, by reason
OF the law that will made after
ward revokes all former ones, if it
is SO stated.
William Reddy was a bachelor
who lived in Spokane and amassed
considerable property here. He
made a will here in 1905 and ap-
pointed the Union Trust Co. exec
utor. leaving considerable property
to st. Joseph's orphanage. In 1907
he went to San Diego, and there
made another will, leaving his
property also to a Catholic hos
pital at that place He died in Oc-
tober, 1908, and the litigation be-
tween the devisees of the two wills
was then begun He left about
$25,0o0.

POINT IS GAINED
BY HESSELTINE

Judge Webster in the superior
SQUIRT this morning ruled that
Charles R. Hesseltine, the presi-
dent of the United Securities Co.,
need not answer any questions of
Attorney w. J. Matthews of oppos-
Ing counsel if such questions would
tend to incriminate him.
Attorney Matthews contended
that Hesseltine should be COMPEL
ed to answer the questions but the
matter could not be used against
him as evidence in the criminal
case pendi ng. The ruling was
made during the hearing this
morning on the appointment of a
new receiver
Judge Webster decided yester-
day in the contempt case brought
by A. e. PINCH and other that as
there had been no receiver since
June Is, Attorney Kizer's appoint
ment as temporary receiver having
expired, that Hesseltine was not
In contempt and did not have to
produce his books or papers at this
time.
A new receiver was then asked
for and the court will likely de-
eide whether there is sufficient
ground for the appointment of one
this afternoon
Hesseltine still has two criminal
charges hanging over him, the pre-
>fiminary hearing of which has been
set for August in Justice Stock
er's court. He is charged with
obtaining money under false pre-
tense in both cases. Hence the i'm
portance to him of the ruling made
this morning.
