The rate of s3.40 a ton on green fir

The railway sought to epjoin the

TESTATRIX COMPETENT
Nephew of Maria de Laveaga
Under Cross Examination

j. V. de Laveaga, nephew of Maria
de Lavea ga, the validity of whose will
is being contested in Judge Coffey's
court, was under cross examination all
day yesterday by Samuel Shortridge
attorney for the proponent. Mrs. Josefa
Cebrian.
He was questioned relative to many
leases of San Francisco realty he had
executed for his aunt, for whom he
acted as attorney, and as to pleadings
filed by him in court cases to which she
was a party.
These leases and pleadings were veri-
fed by Maria de Laveaga before a no
tary public and it is the contention OF
the proponents that this indicates that
De Laveaga always regarded his aunt
as mentally incompetent. He has tes-
titled that she was of unsound mind.

HAVE Faith In Yourself.


There Ia a tremendous power in the
habit Of expectancy. the conviction
that we shall realize our ambition, that
our dreams shall como true. There 10
no uplifting habit like that attitude Of
expecting that our heart yearninss
will be matched with realities: that
things are going to turn out well and
not i'll: that we are going to succeed:
that no matter what may or may not
happen, We are going to be happy. says
Success.
There is nothing else so helpful as
the carrying Of this optimistic, expect
ant attituderthe attitude which al
ways looks for and expects the best,
the highest, the happiest-and never
allowing oneself to get into the pessi-
Imistic, discouraged mood.
Beneve with all your heart that you
will do what you were made to do.
Never for an instant harbor a doubt OF
this. Drive 1t out Of your mind II 1t
seeks entrance. Entertain only the
friendly thoughts OF ideals of the thing
you are bound to achieve. Reject all
thought enemies. all discouraging
meods-everything which would even
suggest failure or unhappiness.

IN the course Of excavations for .

the pick had been driven through the

some eight feet six inches high and
about SIX feet wide. Exploring par
ties have investigated the interior by
the aid Of candle light. The walls
were found to be damp and clammy.
and tho door was covered with . thick
carpet of spongy substance. into
which the feet sank slightly. For

presumably, by the character OF the
structure itself. Two smaller pas
sages turn of the first passage. and
in one Of the side turnings there were
found half . dozen human skulls and
a quantity OF bones. Among the lat
ter is number Of jaw bones OF horses
or other large animals. All the bones
and skulls are charred, and the walls
Of the passage also show traces OF
fire.
The Abbey OF Barking is reported
to have been built in A. D. 67s by
Erkenwald, who afterwards became
Bishop Of London. and whose sister
Ethelberga became first abbess at
Barking It was the hrst nunnery es-
tablished in this country. In A. d.

It lay desolate for a century until re-
stored by King Edgar. Many mem

Wasted Effort.

It is said that California poet was
badly handled by his wife because
he neglected to support the family.
When they asked for bread he gave
them a sonnet, and when they clam
|ored for pie he came across with
madrigal.
Nevertheless, 1t doesn't seem quite
right for his wife to reach over and
snatch tufts from his Uranium cover
and batter his shins with bench
made shoes ana crack his Stats with
q broom handle. That sort Of treat
ment doesn't bring results. A poet
with a black eye and twisted neck
and a denied kneepan is no more use
full than a poet in perfect order.
What the lady should do would be
to have her poet hubby pick up some
Side trade that would promise f1nan-
cial results-as they did in Indiana,
where you will find the baker writes
poetry and so do the hairdresser and
tho motorman and the bartender.
But there is no use attempting to
club money out of poet.
