clared would be the case On the con- tive campaigner in style copied from nobody else his democratic opponents have warmed to him, and republicans realize that this scholar in politics can not be laughed or argued out of court.
 A democratic candidate who can praise the republican party at a mass meeting and provoke no resentment, a speaker who can say good word for the corpor- ations at political rally in these hysteri- cal times and not be distrusted, must certainly have a taking way of putting things and an irresistible charm of man ner. It was to be supposed that a college president would be able to find words for his ideas and get through public speech respectfully but those who know Wood row Wilson only as the head of Princeton did not hope for anything better than speeches stifly read from manuscript, and perfunctory applause of his periods.

willie, Fla. claiming to be the widow of
Lieut.. Paul Harding Mcdonald, who
committed suicide in Hot Springs, Ark,
November -, 1893 has filed a caveat in
the Probate Court here attacking the
validity of McDonald's will.
The cayeator is represented by Attorney

knows of her marriage are the facts con-
tanned in brief letter written to him
last week. The letter stated that she had
married Lieut.. Mcdonald in Jacksonville
May 4. 1898
The filing of the caveat is said to be the
first animation that Franz Heiberger,

that the army officer had ever been mar
ried. The estate was to have been finally
administered this week.
The caveator attacks the suff1ciency OF
the proof offered to the probate of Will
and declares ii does not show that the
officer was of sound mind or was free
from restraint when the will was made.
