 Part of his vacation was spent in East Oakland visiting friends and he also found time to visit Pasadena, Los Angeles, San Francisco and the Blue Lakes country north of San Francisco. It was in the Blue Lakes country that Colonel McClintock had the best time of all, for the scenery was splendid the boating was su- perb and the swimming was a little better than delightful. The water was cool and refreshing after the heat of the Salt River valley and the Colonel took advantage of his
 opportunity to have any number of fine swims.
 While in the Blue Lakes country
 he saw great forest fire which
 covered territory miles in extent. and he speaks of this as something
 indescribable He used the word beautiful shifted to fearful. tried awesome. and gave 1t up with mag nificent

Be Present at Annual Convention of

The word has been spread over the
country through the mysterious avenues
employed by the American tIamps that
they are to assemble heresne Friday
In the greatest demonstration Of the un-

nominious defeat at the hands of the
District and Virginia officials. 1t Is ex-
pevted by How that 5000 men will be in
the parade and mass meeting on Septem-
Der !, the opening day of the convention.
Instead OF being met with orders to
move on, as has been general In How's
travels eastward from this little mission
in ST. Louis, friendliness has been found
in the police department here, and How
does not expect any orders to his fol-
lowers to leave the District. No protests

the correspondents when court adjourned,
which was in midafternoon. Il think
they're all fair men, and that we'll make
rapid progress
But brave as were his words, there
was no doubling that young Beattie was
pretty badly worried. When prospective
jurors were asked questions in which
appeared the words death, electric
chair" and capital punishment" those
who sat facing him could observe q
twitching of the muscles of his cheeks,
a tightening of the chords in his throat,
a gripping OF his armchair. While he
must keep silent and still, he is undoubt-
edly frightened.
Tomorrow morning the taking of tes-
timony will begin as soon as court con-
venes. A coroner, to prove the corpus
delicti" and a doctor, to tell just how
Louise Owen Beattie met her death by a
gunshot wound, will be the early wit
nesses. Attorney Wendenberg. who has
charge of the case for the State, says
his side will complete its testimony in
two or at the outside three days. The
defense will probably take longer time.
Absence of motive" 1t is generally
conceded. will be the defense. A great
number of witnesses will say that Beatte
and his wife lived most happily together.
and the boys lawyers will ask: Why
should he have killed herr"
Cousins Meet in Jail.
Young Henry Clay Beattie, the defend
ant, and his cousin. Paul Beattie. who
confessed that he bought for Henry the
shotgun with which the young wife was
killed, met for the first time since their
arrest this morning 1t was in the cor
ridor of the Henrico County Jail, in Rich
mond, where they have been confined.
Henry was being taken sout to the motor
car which brought him here; Paul was
being exercised. Henry stopped, stared
at his cousin without speaking, and con-
tinued his gaze until Paul had to drop
his eyes.
There was a story, by the way, cur
rent during the day that Paul Beattie,
who, with Beulah Binford, the other
woman one of the star witnesses for
the State, will tell much more at this
trial than he did at the coroners in
quest; that he may even declare he has
positive knowledge that his cousin
Henry is guilty. But neither he nor the
States lawyers would say anything about
his coming testimony.
For moment, early to-day. it looked
as though there might be no necessity
of jurors, or of a trial. The young de-
fendant was within a few seconds of
death, while on his way out here from
Richmond in a motor car.
In a heavily wooded section of Ches-
terfeld County, the courthouse road"
runs across the tracks of the Atlantic
Coast Line Railroad. AS the car ran
up a little hill and around a sharp turn
to cross those tracks, a special un-
scheduled train approached. The chauf-
feur lost his head while changing gears
and his car stopped still directly in
the path of the oncoming train.
When he pulled himself together and
ran the car out of the way, the train
was less than 100 yards distant.

OLD WILL
is FOUND
IN COURT
ESTATE WAS SETTLED NEARLY
THREE YEARS AGO
DOCUMENT DATED IN 1885
Estate Of Mrs. Add1e NJ. Wambaugh
OF Plattevil1e Was Settled BY
COurt-Heirs May Get
Into a Contest

The discovery of a will 26 years
old in the archives of the county
court Thursday morning may lead to
reopening of the estate of Mrs. Ad-
die NJ. Wambaugh of Platteville,
who died supposedly interstate in
1906. On November %, 1906, her
estate was probated and on Decem-
Der 2l, 1908, final settlement was
made in the county court, more
than $4,000 worth of property be-
ing distributed among half dozen
heirs.
Now, after having been settled for
nearly three years, a will has been
found dated in 1885. 1t was among
a number OF old papers in box that
We're supposed to be valueless and
was found when a house cleaning
was in process.
The will has not been opened and
is in possession of County Judge
Bradfield.
| The heirs receiving the property
we're Harry Wambaugh, Harvey
| Wambaugh, Mrs. Luella DeRuch,
Mabel, Alice and Pearl Houle, the
last three named being minor grand
children.
The case is one of the most un-
usual that has ever come up in the
county court. Under the law, if the
heirs want the will read and it shall
decree that the estate be divided diff
ferently than done by the court, the
heirs named, in the will will be able
to bring suit for the part OF the es-
tate awarded to them under the will
which they might not have received
in the division by the court.
1t is up to the heirs to say whe-
ther the will shall be opened now
or If they shall abide by the distri
button that has been effected. Mean
while the document will be taker
care of in the court, the officials o
which have no power in the premises
to dispose of it until the heirs are
heard from.

lous tools and the pressure of labor's
hahus' But is it not the cruelest
injustice for the wealthy whose lives
are surrounded and embellished by
labor'5 work, to have a superabun-
dance OF the money which repre-
sents the aggregate of labor in any
country, while the laborer himself
ID kept so steady at work that he has
no time to acquire the education

make him and his family agreeable

BRUSH GOES
TO INSPECT
new SCHOOL
Branches of Agricultural College to
Be Put Into Commission Next
Session-$6O.O 900 Given

j. l.. Brush left on Saturday fol
Durango, in company with the exc
cutive committee of the State Agri-
cultural college, to accept the Indian
school buildings which have been re-
Gently given to the Agricultural col
lege by the state to be used as a
branch school for the college. 1t is
said that the buildings are valued at
100000. Some repair work Will be
necessary and this will be done this
summer and the branch school will
open September 4.
An appropriation of 100000 has
been made for the branch school.
The buildings have been used for an
Indian school until last year, when
the school was discontinued on ac-
count of the small attendance. The
bill passed provides that all Indian
pupils who desire to attend must be
admitted to the school.
On the return trip the party will
stop at Grand Junction to inspect the
Teller Indian institute at that place.
A bill is now before the legislature
which If passed will give this schooi
TO the Agricultural college for an
other branch school. New faculties
will be employed for the branch
schools. but all will be under the
same management at the state col
lege at Fort Collins.
