His Notion Of Home.

A New York surveyor had an as.
signment that took him into the depth
OF the wilderness ten miles from
camp. The camp was hundred miles
from the nearest railroad station. To
his surprise, he heard the sound Of
an Az He followed the sound and
found busy woodsman at work. He
had cleared the timber away for a
few rods about. and on that space had
put up snug log cabin. All the rest,
on every side, was the profound, al
most untrodden wilderness. The man
stopped his work and greeted the sur
veyor pleasantly. "And where did
you come from?" he asked From
New York" answered the surveyor.
Live there?" said he. Yes" The

CREDENTIALS NOW IN ORDER
Or. Cook the Last "Distlneuished"
Guest to Be Entertained by Bu-
enos Ayres journal.

In the course Of his lecture on the
city of Buenos Ayres. Burton Holmes
showed several pictures of the edito-
rial Offices of the great Argentine
newspaper called La Prensa. In a
portion Of the ornate structure that
house the journals many activities
there is a complete fiat, handsomely
furnished and fitted with every con-
venience that Paris, which the Argen>
tines copy faithfully, knows. This fiat
used TO be maintained by the news
paper as a place in which to enter.
tain distinguished visitors to the city.
Mr.. Holmes, in showing these pic
lures, declares he felt very bad at
first, when he learned about this hos
pitable custom Of the paper, to think
that he was not considered enough
of distinguished stranger to be in
vited to occupy the fiat as a guest of
La Prensa. But when he looked over
the list of those who had occupied it
his wounds were assuaged. The first
of the guests was Puccini, the italian
composer; the second was Amunsen.
the Arctic explorer. and the third was
Doctor Cook Of Brooklyn, of North
Pole 90 and Denmark and the
guest OF the New York board of al
dermen. "Since then" Holmes says
in conclusion, la Prensa has not en-
tertained any distinguished visitors" !"

Veteran Sailor Distinctly an Apostle
Of the Doctrine Of Simple and

II there were two things which the
late Sir Henry Keppel, the veteran
admiral and personal friend OF King

"Ah,'" he said, ''he Is over-nursed

in day or two telegraphed to him:
"How are you. and where shall I

Why a TalIor's Thin,bje.

II you have ever noticed a tailor's
thjmble you must have observed that
u is not like the one your mother or
your sisters use, because it has no top.
AS there is reason for everything,
there is reason for this.
The stuff your mother sews on is
usually very light and the needle is
easily pushed through by pressing the
top OF the thimble against the needle
But tailors often have to sew very
coarse and heavy material and they
cannot get enough pressure on the top
OF the thimble, SO they use the side
and therefore they have no use for a
top.

TO TAKE UP BRANDT CASE
WEDNESDAY
New York, Feb. 27.-Because
the district attorney of Clinton
county was not present, the for
NAL filing of an order setting aside
the conviction of Folke E. Brandt,
the former Schiff valet, and his
admission to bail, which was to
have taken place at noon, was de-
ferred until Wednesday.
Mortimer L. Schiff today made
public a 10,000-word statement,
declaring that certain newspa-
pers had sought to attack his hon
or, and that he was not given
chance to defend himself before
the grand jury. He charged that
Brandt, through his lawyers,
tried to blackmail him. In the
statement is contained two let
tiers which the valet IS alleged to
have written to Mrs. Schiff.
The millionaire paints himself
as a much-maligned man, and
says he wants full publicity CIV
en- the matter. He makes no
mention of the record" which re-
suited in Brandt's heavy sentence
which witnesses have declared
was faxed.

in the will, and Henry N. Somsen
of the law firm Of Somsen, Dempsey
G. Mueller, Clifford fancy of st. Paul
Charles Vcgtel CT New Ulm and viii
liam Silverson of Shelbyville. Ind.
were appointed as executors of the
estate, which is estimated to exceed
100000 in value, and, in compliance
with the wishes of the testator, nc
bonds were eXacted of them.
Under the provisions of the will
his widow, Katherine NJ. Silverson
receives the homestead and furniture
except such as belonged to his de
ceased wife, which goes to his two
daughters. Mrs. Silverson receives
also outright one-third of the balance
of all other property, the only re
striction being the wish and direc
ton of the testator that the common
stock of the Eagle Roller Mill com
pany should remain intact and that
mis- widow should select other prop
erty in place of it. 49,.
To his sister, Barbara Schubach
he gives and bequeaths fifty shares
of the preferred stock of the Eagle
Roller Mill company, or its equiva
lent in cash, and to his sisters, Cath
crime Zepf and Minnie Sommer, he
gives and bequeaths twenty-five
shares of this stock or it's equivalent
in cash. ...-'
Because the testator deemed it ad
visable that the controlling interest
in the mill company remain where il
was prior to his death, he directs
that his executors and trustees KEEP
the common stock intact for period
of ten years, unless sooner absolved
by William Silverson, who is to have
the right to vote the stock.
The balance of the property is to
go to his executors in trust for his
three children, Katherine O'Donnell
Charlotte Silyerson and Charles fancy
Silyerson. Each daughter is to re
ceive the income from her third
during her lifetime, and the sons
income is to be used for his support
and education. At the age of twenty
five he is to receive his share of the
estate. The shares of the children
after death is to go to their issue
But, if either of the children should
die without issue, that share shall
pass to the other children. or their
issue and . if none, to the testator's
sisters. -:. 49, '' 49,. '.., %;,...
The will fixes the compensation
of the executors and trustees at $500
each per annum and directs that
none shall be appointed unless they
agree to accept this remuneration
The court, however, has the right
to reduce this allowance if the
amount thus allowed should prove
excessive and burden on the es
tate. s".... - .
The testator furthermore transfers
his trusteeship over the funds of his
two daughters to Barbara Schubacf
of Cincinnati and Charles Vogtcl o.
