FORTUNE PROBABLY LEFT
TO CHILD HE NEVER SAW

CLASSVILLE, MO, July 5.-One of
the most remarkable cases that ever
confronted a probate court in Mis-
souri, was tried before c. NJ. Lands

The case involved the settlement of
the estate of A. b. Gardner, a farmer
of this county, who died recently,
leaving a little girl Ii years old and
$4,000.
rourteen years ago Gardner mar
ried and separated. Several months
later a little girl was born to the for
mer wife, but no effort was made at
reconciliation. and the father never
saw the girl. When Gardner found
he would not live he drew a will
leaving all the property and money
to his brother. Attendants raised
Gardner so he could sign, but just as
he took the pen he collapsed and
died.

Brilliant Career Is Predicted for Chattanooga
Singer by European Masters

lighted with her voice that she gave
her a recommendation and ordered
her to study under Jean de Reszke, in
Paris.
The Southern girl followed her ad-
wise, and two years ago she com
pleted the course prescribed by De
Reszke and his chief assistant, Oscar
Seagle. a native Chattanoogan.
Since completing this course Miss
Baylor has appeared in practically all
the European capitals and is even
better known on the continent than
in the United States. A brilliant ca
reer is predicted for her by all the
European masters.

The following is an excerpt from
a recent issue of The Era, of Lon
don:
Among the vocal schools that have
done first-rate work during the past
season that of Frantz ProsChowsky
stands out COnspiCuOusly, and among
Mr.. ProsChowsky's many successful
pupils Miss Eloise Baylor takes a
high place. At a recent recital this
young American gained great and
we'll merited praise from the critics.
Her voice has Coloratura of unus-
ual beauty and wide range, with the
pure, full tone and warmth of meZ-
20 soprano, and her execution not
only reflects much credit upon her
training. but also upon her musical
intelligence and industry. Miss Bay
lOr, who rendered a program inClud-
ing songs and arias by Mozart, De-
Busy, SCarlatti and Hue, as well as
the Mignon Polonaise and I've Been
Roaming should take a prominent
place on the concert platform or in
grand opera, as her inclination die

WASHINGTON, July 5.-Experi-
ments have been begun on a large
scale at the United States fish cul-
ture station at Edenton, N. c., to see
if bullfrogs can be propagated sue
cessfully by artificial means.
The matter has been under discus
sion for some time between the Blu
reau of Fisheries at Washington
and Representative John H. Small, Of
the First North Carolina District.
There are a few frog farms in the
United States now. II the expert
ments at Edenton are successful
thousand of such farms will be
established, and what is to-day only
a haphazard and restricted industry
will become a dependable and ex-
tensive one. Frogs are readily sal
able. The market fairly begs for
them. The difficulty is to supply the
demand. which may be regarded as
ineXhaustible.

Is generally supposed that France
leads the world in the consumption Of
frogs as food for human beings.
This is altogether a mistake-iust
as big a one as the prejudice which
some folks cherish against the edible
frog on account of the resemblance
he bears to the despised and nauseous

people of France, and there are only
twice as many peoDle in this country

CATS THINK AND

Professor of Zoology Declares
FeIineS Possess Power
Of Reasoning.

Los ANGELES, July 5.-After
years of study and experimenting
with cats, DR.. Charles Lincoln Ed
wards. professor of zoology at the
University of Southern California
and head of nature study in the Los
Angeles schools, announced that he
has found that cats think, reason.
have a language of their own and
possess a keen sense of humor.
As cat fancier Dr. Edwards has
had several tabbies near him at his
home for many years, and as care
fully observing man of science he
has studied the felines as he has
studied no other animal, and has ar
rived at the conclusion that the only
difference between the intelligence
Of the cat and the intelligence Of a
human is a difference of degree
rather than kind.
Can Reason, Too.
He expressed his views relative to
the intellectual attachments and man
ifestations of the cat family in an
interview in which he used his prize
orange tabby cat, Shadi Fave, the
prize winner at many cat shows. for
the purpose of demonstration.
What's said about animals not
having reasoning power is all non
sense" he declared. 81 have observed
cats more closely than any other ami
NAL as they are near me so much
of the time at my home. and | know
that they act in accordance with rea-
son and not alone by instinct.
The animal is lacking in the abili-
ty to express itself through articula-
tory sounds as does a human, per-
haps" he said. but for the natural
means of expressing desire or emo
ton, cat has man, bereft of his
voice, bested. The cat has a language
Of its own. BY its succeeding ex-
periences, 1t is able to understand
the law of cause and effect, just as a
human does. and it can reason in
his limited capacity as does a man.
The sneer of human is the lineal
descendant of the snarl of the beast,
The cat perhaps cannot express him
