INTERVENTION
SUIT Is FILED

Claiming that the transfer of bene-
iiciary in an insurance policy on the
life of Mrs. Lula Glover was improp-
erly made, Grace Tapley, by her guar
dian, Mrs. Nancy NJ. Trump, has filed
an intervention in the case of H. J.
Glover against the Supreme Forest
Woodmen Circle. The intervenor al
leges that Mrs. Glover, who was then
Mrs. Lula l.. Tapley, was insured in
the sum of 81 900 by the defendant in
April, 1905, in favor of her daughter,
Grace Tapley, and that Mrs. Tapley
was afterwards married to the plain
tiff and died April 27, 1910. 1t is
claimed by the intervenor that an al
legged change of the insured's bene-
ficiary from her daughter to her hus-
band, is invalid on account of the
fact that it was made when she was in
a dying condition, under the influence
Of medicine and mentally incapable
of knowing what she was doing. The
intervenor asks judgment for the full
amount of the policy, $1,000.

FACES PROBLEM

Fayetteville, June 5.-One of the
greatest problems with which The
board of trustees of the State Uni

ton of $28S,0O0 has been cut down

the lii which has been introduced by
