WILL DECREED THAT
FUNERAL BE JOYOUS

Kansas City,-After more than q
year of proofs and counter proofs In
the probate courts Of states from the
Atlantic to the Pacific. in which Will
liam f. Norton of Louisville, Ky,
owned property, final settlements
have been made in accordance with
his novel bequests.
Copies of the will and dispositions
Of the witnesses and heirs were filed
for record in the county recorders Of
flee here.
The will had for its Introduction
quotations from the writings of Prior,
Byron and Shakespeare on the un-
certainty of life. comments on Louis
Vile. Ky, his home. "in which town
have been buried alive so many
years" and ends with bequests to his
various relatives. friends and servants.
This is the direction Norton gave for
the disposition OF his body:
II wish a special Pullman car to be
engaged to carry my body to Cincin-
natl, Ohio, for cremation, taking along
the receptacle for my ashes, which
will be found in my private office. 19-
20-22 Norton block.
81 wish the buffet Of the Pullman
which will carry my body to Cincin-
natl. Ohio, to be well stocked with
things to eat and drink, so that my
friends who do me the honor to see
me well started on my last journey
to the bourne whence no traveller re-
turns may not want for anything to
ease their hunger or to slake their
thirst. =.
while my body is undergoing the
process of cremation. desire my ex-
eXutors to engage a band at a cost
of 5000 to render a concert program
composed of my favorite soft musi-
cal selections. A copy Of the said
program will be found In the envel-
ope containing my will.
"It will be noticed In said pro-
gram that there are intermissions of
15 minutes. In said intermissions I
desire my friends who will be the
witnesses OF the incineration of my
body, to invite the musicians to Join
them in drinking my bon voyage in
champagne, several cases of which
will be sent to the crematory from the
Pullman"
Norton left insurance policies ag-
gregating $4,000 and large property
holdings in Kentucky, Missouri, Cali
fornia and some of the southern and
eastern states.
His two sons, one Of whom he calls
"The Wonder" and the other "The

NEW A|RsH|P MARKS
step IN AER0hAUT|cS
GERMAN INVENTION is
A WONDERFUL MACHINE
Can be Coupled and Uncoupled I'm
Flight, Each Car Being Separate
Value i'm War Marked by Kaiser's
Government.

Berlin-One OF the most remark
able developments of German aero
nautical science is the airship Zorn,
which is considered to represent the
latest advance in this domain of in
vention. Designed by Herr Zorn,
from whom it takes its name, this, the
newest aerial wonder, is really an aer-
ial train. the three constituent parts
OF which can be uncoupled from one
another during flight, so that the ves-
sci can be divided at will into three
separate airships.
In its complete condition the Zorn
airship bears some resemblance to the
Zeppelin vessels, and belongs to the
rigid type. The rigid frame is made
OF wood, whereas that of the Zep-
pelin ships is made of aluminium. The
airship is 80 feet in length, and has
diameter of AZ feet and a capacity of
100000 cubic feet.
The peculiarity of the airship is that
the motion of the three sections can
be inclined upward or downward or
also to the right or left. The foresec-
ton, for instance, might be pointed
upward and the aft section downward
simultaneously, or the fore section
might be inclined to the right and the
aft section to the left simultaneously.
The movements of the airship in its
complete condition, therefore, resem-
BILE those of a fish or a wriggling
worm. For this reason the vessel has
been nicknamed the worm" airship.
The different sections can be separated
from one another in the air within
two minutes, and both fore and aft
sections can be separated simultane-
ously or singly. The fore section has
a length of 81 feet, the central Sec
ton a length of 1876 feet, and the aft
section a length OF 9S feet.
Each section supports three cars,
two of which carry motors, while the
third is reversed for the crew. In its
complete condition the airship has
nine cars, six of which carry motors
and three the crew. Supposing the
airship, when in use for military pur-
poses. has made important observa-
tions. the fore section might be de-
tached and sent back to headquarters
with the supplementary information
and photographs II one of the Sec
tions suffered serious damage, its
crew could board the other sections
and the damaged part could be cut
loose and simply abandoned. Each
of the smaller sections is divided in
to four alright compartments.
After landing, the entire frame car
be easily taken to pieces, packed and
transported, SO that in this respect
this rigid airship offers equal advan-
tages to those OF the semi-rigid and
unrigid types. The total cost Of th'
Zorn airship is approximately $780,
900. Many experts regard IT as su'
perior to all existing types, owing tt
the remarkable facility with which
II can be handled in the air. to III
easy division into two or three parts
its reduced vulnerability. owing TO thu
rapidity with which one or both o.
the injured sections can be cut adrift
and to other technical advantages
The airship is fitted with a new typ
OF motor invented by the German en-
ginser, Buchersr.

LEE STATUE STAYS
Congress Alone Can Put II Out of
Statuary Hall In Capitol

Beverly, Mass. Aug. 2.-All the
protests against the presence of the
statue of General Robert e. Lee In a
Confederate uniform in Statuary hall
IN Washington have been unavailing.
The president, acting on the findings
of Attorney General Wickersham. has
decreed that the statue may remain.
The decision Of the president as
sures the statue a permanent lodg-
ment In the Capitol unless congress
passes a law for It's removal. Such
an action Is considered beyond the
realm of possibility.
Mr.. Wickersham consulted the law
to determine whether the statue could
be removed because of the violent
protests against its presence by the
G.. A. r.. especially from the state of
New York. He found that there Is no
provision of law by which the statue
can be removed from Statuary hall.

without any distress afterward.
One man is grateful because SEA-
vER's DYSPEPSIA TABLETS have
cured him of nervousness. Another
says it has relieved the pain around
his heart. Just think of it, here is
a remedy that must cure you of
sour stomach, wind belching, dizzy

ache, and every other form of indi-
gestion or it will not cost you a cent
