Left No Room for Doubt.

Wichita lawyers are yet talking
about the way Wallace B. Baker, who
was found guilty recently in the dis
trict court of selling mortgaged
property, showed his ignorance OF
married life. The prosecuting attor-
ney was trying to show that Baker
wasn't married. He asked Baker the
following questions:
"Did you ever send your wife any
dresses?"
yes, I sent her four dresses"
What kind of dresses did you send
herr"
81 sent her one good dress and
three common dresses"
How much did you pay for the
good dress, Mr.. Baker?"
ooh, I guess about $3.50"
The lawyer put Mr.. Baker down
then and there as an unmarried man
and a poor guesser.-Exchange

His policies kept him in almost con-
tinuous conflict with the university
trustees and professors. In fact, the
bitterest controversies in the institu-
tion's history marked his term. Will
sons friends say it was a conflict be-
tween a Progressive and Democratic
president and the forces of privilege
and aristocracy.
The earliest recorded mention of
Woodrow Wilson as presidential pos
sibility is in the form of a letter writ
ten by some one in Indianapolis to the
News of that city at the time of Will
sons Inauguration as president of
Princeton. This faint boom was re-
vived on Feb. 3, 1906, at the Lotus
club, New York, where Mr.. Wilson was
the guest of honor. On that occasion
a possible candidate for the presiden-
tial nomination.
Colonel Harvey's magazine, Harp
er's Weekly, for a time gave ardent
support to Wilson's campaign for the
nominations; but at the beginning of
1912 this support was withdrawn.

The nomination of Governor Mar

thing of surprise for when the

There was not much of fight, how

Colonel Bryan delivered what he
called his "valedictory" and, in happy

The motion was withdrawn before he

CLAIMS OLE BULLS ISLAND
Estate Was Requeathed to Swiss
Child by the Famous violinist's
Daughter.

Ralph S. Bartlett, who was counsel
for Mrs. Olea Bull Vaughan, only
child of the late Ole Bull, the famous
violinist, successfully contested the
will Of Mrs. Bull in the probate court
Of York county, Maine, last summer,
recently left on board the steamship
Franconia for Liverpool on his way to
file Mrs. Vaughan's will at Bergen,
Norway. the New York Herald's Bos'
ton correspondent says.
Mr.. Bartlett Is executor for the will
of Mrs. Vaughan, and he and Miss
Amelia Shapleigh of West Lebanon,
Me-, are co-trustees for Sylvia
Vaughan, the adopted daughter of Mrs.
Vaughan and the principal beneficiary
under Mrs. Vaughan's will.
The reason that the will Of Mrs.
Vaughan is to be offered for record in
Bergen is that the only foreign real
estate which she possessed is the
Island of Lysoen, near Bergen. Ole
Bull owned this island, which Is said
to be one Of the most beautiful in the
world. 1t is in ford about twenty.
two miles from Bergen, and consists
Of about seven hundred acres of land,
largely forest. Ole Bull in his life
time developed two fresh water lakes
and cave and laid out twenty miles
Of paths on the island.
Lysoen was left by Mrs. Vaughan to
the little Swiss girl, Sylvia, whom she
adopted couple of years ago, but on
Sylvia's death Lysoen Is to be pre-
served by the Norwegian government
as a memorial to Ole Bull.
The exact procedure which will be
followed in Norway with respect to
the case is a matter of uncertainty, be-
cause under the Norwegian law no
foreigner can own real estate in that
country without the written consent of
the king. -
