TO INTERPRET WILL
Ambiguous Terms in John
Sullivan's Will.

Because language used in item two,
of the will of the late John Sullivan, a
resident of this county, has caused
doubt as to the plaintiffs right to part
with real estate left her, Kate A. Kel-
lar today filed a complaint in circuit
court to construe the will and for par
tition against John E. Kellar ct al.
The complaint states that the will
was made June IA. 1908 and that the
late Mr. Sullivan died June 20, 1908.
The will was duly and legally proved
and admitted to probate. A part of the
northwest quarter of section 80, town
ship Is north, range 1 west including
one acre and tx square rods was de-
vised to plaintiff to be held by her .un-
til her death when it was to be divid-
ed among her children.
One child, James A. Kellar, died in
1911, during infancy, and the plaintiff
believes that the property should be
sold and the deceased child's share di-
vided among legal heirs. A mortgage
of $500 is held on the real estate by
the German Mutual Fire Insurance as
sociation of Richmond, and the asso-
citation is named as one of the de-
PENDANTS in the suit.

will be appointed to establish the val
ne of the property. -
p If isshefeved that the Improvement

ate relief from the crowded condition

ACTION OF STATE
FEDERATION UPHELD
American Federation on Vote
Refuses to Seat Steam
filters Delegates.

Local union men say the action of
the American Federation of Labor in
session at Rochester in refusing to
seat steamfitters' delegates, substanti-
ates the action of the State Fedora
ton of Labor which in its session at
Richmond in September refused to
seat Fort Wayne delegates of that or
ganization.
When the credentials committee re-
ported that the Fort Wayne delegates
had no right to speak in the Indiana
State Federation, the affected men,
bers asserted that the federation had
not been informed offlcialIy by the
American Federation of the status of
the steamfitters' organization. The
State Federation, however, refused to
seat the Fort Wayne delegates. and
the steamfitters threatened to appeal
the decision.

tention of the plumbers, who obtained
jurisdiction over the pipe trades over
one year ago. He said il would be in

.ST,ANOREW'SC CHURCH
PLANS BIG BAZAAR
Ten Days Will Be Devoted to
the Feature to Be Held
in New School.

One of the events of the early win
ter will be the bazaar to be conducted
for ten days by the ladies of the con-
gregation of ST. Andrews Catholic
church which will open on Monday
evening, November 18th, in the new
high school building erected by the
parish of st. Andrews.
While the dedication of the building
has been postponed until spring, the
building is still in an almost completed
condition and an admirable place for
the holding of the bazaar
This will be one of the most extern
sive affairs of its character ever given
in this city and for which prepara-
tions have been going on for the past
year.
One of the most attractive exhibits
will be that of the linens, some beauti-
full pieces of hand embroidery having
been made by the Sisters and many
handsome articles will be on display.
Another feature will be a beautiful
hat made by leading milliner of the
city, and which is regarded as one OF
the most charming examples of the
milliner's art ever seen here, while
there are numerous other exhibits of
household articles of use and orna-
mentation.
Mrs. B. A. Kennepohl will have gen
eral charge of the refreshments to be
served and will, at different times,
give a Dutch lunch, high" and a
"low" German lunch, Japanese and
es, Mrs. Kennepohl to be assisted by
a number of girls who will be appro-
priately costumed each evening to car
ry out the national idea.

for this city in the admirable conduct
of his large parish and for the city s
general civic interests and through
whose efforts this new high school
building, which is an effective addi-
ton to municipal architectural as
poets. has general oversight of the ba-
zaar.
Miss Jeanette Landwer, a member
of ST. Andrews, has recently prepared
for publication in the Columbian Re-
cord, leading church paper, an in
teresting history of St. Andrews par
ish and of the erection Of the new high
school building, the paper issuing a
special edition at the time this article
appeared, copies of the Record being
sent to every Catholic family in Rich
mond.
This bazaar is not alone interesting
to the members of st. Andrews, but
to the public at large since it is to be
carried on on an extensive scale and
will have on display articles to appeal
to the most versatile taste.
Special music has been arranged.

CHAP TER IS ADDED
TO KARNS STORY
Sidney Karns Wants Divorce
After a Sensational Mat
rimonial Venture.

With the filing of divorce suit an
other chapter of the Sidney Karns
case was made public today. The COM
plant filed by Sidney F. Karns versus
Isabelle Karns, was filed this morning
and Immediately withdrawn from the
county clerks office by the attorney
for the plaintiff. Upon what grounds
the divorce complaint is filed is un-
known.
Mrs. Karns some time ago filed affi-
davits charging child and wife deser-
affidavit filed during the first part OF
the year was nollied on motion of the
prosecutor April 5. Shortly afterwards
two affidavits were filed against
karns. He was obliged to put up a
bond of $500 for recognizance on the
charge of child desertion and bond
of $500 on the wife desertion charge.
After considerable delay the two cases
were dismissed on motion OF karns'
attorney, on the grounds Of lack of
prosecution.
A rather sensational episode de-
veioped out of the affidavit charging
child desertion. Karns' attorney. in
pleading for the dismissal of the atfi-
davits alleged that Mrs. Karns had
gone to hospital in northern city
and later wrote letters to Karns say
ing that he was the father of a chi,1
Karns denied this and, it was said, he
employed detective. The latter as
certained, it was said, that Mrs. karns
was not the mother of the child and
that she had adopted it.
1t. is expected that Mrs. Karns will
fight the divorce action. A sensa.
tional hearing is anticipated.

Board of Works Decides that
This Is Necessary to Sc
cure Bids on Water Works
Contract.
DTHER CHANGES NOT
THOUGHT NECESSARY
|Committee Appointed to In
!. terview Legislators on Es-
tablishment of a Utility
Commission.

At q meeting of the board of public
works the water works question was
again taken up, and special meeting
of the board and the attorneys for the
ing at 10 o'clock to discuss the ques-
tion of revising the specifications so
as to permit competition.
It was the unanimous opinion of
the members of the board that the five
year optional purchase clause was the
only serious objection either of the
bidding companies had offered in their
communications.
The communication of E. M. Camp
field which was published in the Pal
ladium on Tuesday, was read by the
board this morning. 1t is believed
that, with the exception of one or two
minor changes in the specifications,
they will not be modified further than
to allow the city to purchase the plant
at any time after signing the contract,
and that the five year optional pur-
chase clause will be changed to read
fifteen years.
To Learn Sentiment.
1t was suggested to the board this
! morning that since Richmond is fac
! ing the granting of two contracts with
public service corporations, it would
! be best to ascertain from the members
of next legislature what will be the
prospects for the passing of bill es-
tablishing public utility commission
in the state.
Mayor with the con-.
sent OF the board, appointed A. M.
Gardener, Fred Charles and e. H.
Harris, with instructions to write to
each member. of the next legislature
regarding a bill for a public utility
commission for. Indiana.
The present specifications include
q clause to take effect, in case the
state passes bill for public utility
!, commission. If this bill is passed it is
believed that better service at low
er cost could be secured in both wa
ter and gas utilities.
New York, Massachusetts,, Ohio,
i Wisconsin and many other states have
adopted the public utility commission
and in all of the states it has proved to
be a great improvements -over the sys-
tenn in Indiana.
