betting before the returns in the con-
tested districts were in showed ten

AS a final word 20 the electors, the
heads of the principal religious denomi-
nations have put forth messages to
their co-religionists. In the pastoral of
the Catholic archbishop of Westmin-
ster, the clergy and laiety are admon-
ished that the matter of paramount
Importance for Catholics is the efficient
maintenance of distinctly Catholic
schools" The archbishop urges that
no other question, even though it af-
feet the other Catholic disabilities, be
proposed to any candidate on behalf Of
Catholics.
DR.. Winnington-Ingram, bishop of
London, after citing Mr.. AsQuiths de-
claration that two things to be settled
are the future and church schools and
the fate of the Welsh church, says the
maintenance of religious teaching is
bound up with the existence of denom-
national schools. He adds that the
disendowment of the Welsh church will
be an act of tyranny and injustice and
insists that the pledges on both matters
be eXacted from candidates
DR.. Perkins, president of the Method
ist conference, though holding his posi-
ton to be one not to be used for parti-
san purposes, reminds all Methodists
that the church is free of right and this
freedom must be defended.

WILL is UPHELD.
Claimant Alleged He Was Unduly
Influenced.

Montgomery City, Mo-, May A.
Mrs. Emma j. Hamil of California
brought suit in the Circuit Court
here today to break the will of
Gibson Dickey, farmer and stock
man, alleging undue influence and
that the dead man was her father
and that he was a bigamist.
She claims to be a daughter of
wife No. l, whom Dickey married
in California, May 20, 1863, and
that he ran away and came to Mis-
souri, and remarked without get
ting a divorce. When he died, be-
ing under the influence of wife
No. 2 and her children, she alleges,
he left them all of his estate.
Dickey resided on a farm near
Wellsville, and, besides owning
land, he had money on deposit IN
the Wellsville Bank. Judge Bar
nett sustained a demurrer, hOll-
ing that under the law, "a man had
a right to dispose of his property
as he saw fit, provided he was in
his right mind and did it lawfully.
He ordered the jury to bring in
a verdict for the defendants.

WANT A SUBWAY.
A Dangerous Crossing Over the
Wabash Near Mexico.

There is a very dangerous cross
ing, called the Fields Crossing,
over the Wabash railroad, south
east of Mexico. Frank James and
other farmers in that neighbor-
hood are working for a subway.
County Highway Engineer has
been working for this improve
ment for some time. One of the
officials of the railroad tells Mr..
Wakefield that the company is
ready to build the subway but the
county must pay the cost. TIL
track, we are told, is Is feet ab1v
the level at the crossing and there
is deep cut just west which
makes it impossible to see an ap-
preaching train from that direc-
ton. Mr. Wakefield says if the
subway is not built a wagon load

these times. He further says to
