Probate Judge Kolp handed |
down his decision in the lost will |
case of ex Judge Henry M. Cole |
last Friday, to the effect that the |
latter made a will in 1904, leav- |
ing all his property to his wife |
during her life, after which it is |
to revert to his brothers and sis |
ters. The testimony adduced at |
the trial was to the effect that |
D. w. Bowman and w. Y. Stubbs
witnessed the will, in which Tho
mas L. Brewer was named as ex-
ecutor and which was in Mr..
Coles own handwriting, he, at
that time, being Of sound mind
and memory and under no re-
straint. Mr.. Stubbs testified that |
some time after the will had been |
signed, Mr.. Cole gave him two
packages of papers to keep in his |
safe until he called for them, and
in the event anything happened
him, he (Stubbs) was to burn the
letters and turn the other pack
age over to his (Cole's) legal rep
resentatives. Mr.. Stubbs furth-
er testified that the papers re-
mained in his safe untouched un-
til the spring of 1908, when Mr..
Cole demanded them and both
packages were turned over to
him; that in his presence he
burned the small package and
took the other papers away with
him, and at the time this latter
incident occurred Mr.. Coles con-
dition was not mentally good.
After due consideration of all the
evidence, Judge Kolp decided
that Mr.. Cole had made a will in
1904, which was duly witnessed,
under the terms of which he dis
posed of his property as follows :
Il give to my wife, Elizabeth
Porter Cole, all of my property.

Colorado Apple Crop.

Denver.-Colorado will this year
rank first among western states in
the production of apples by as large
margin as in 1909, when the state
VISA conceded to have shipped more
apples than all other states of the
West, combined. Crop prospects at
this time are for a larger production
than ever before, and it is safe to say
that the frost period is past.
While peaches, and even pears and
apples, have been injured to some eX-
tent in many sections, there never has
been a time when the fruit crop was
so general. c. l.. Oliver, secretary of

SUIT OVER STORE BILL.
Calumet Store Company Suing Seven
Men for 1924.

An interesting civil suit is likely to
be tried in Justice Fishers court to-
day, In which the Calumet Store com
pany on Elm street, will bring suit to
recover 1884 from Nick and Thomas
Sertich, Nick. George and Joseph Me-
SIGH, Luka Techok and Steve Kalain.
II IL alleged that the seven de-
PENDANTS, with one Paul Sertich, who
has left Calumet, ran "a store bill for
furniture. etc, amounting TO 1924. 1t
is claimed, Paul Sertich, who was the
boarding house boss, was given the
seven boarders' share Of the bill to pay
the store company but that Paul Ser
itch went away without paying the
BILL
Some of the defendants, who were
i'm court this morning, stated they
would rather go to Jail than foot the
bill. They were informed by the court
that they could not be sent TO jail for
debt, but that garnishments could
be instituted, and recovery made that
way. There is possibility that the
eompany and the seven defendants
may get together and settle the bill to
the satisfaction OF all parties.
