FIRST WIFE'S SPIRIT
IN PLOT, He ASSERTS
Advised Him to Transfer Prop.
erty to No. z, Veteran Says.

st. Louis.-Stephen F. Garlock's de-
termination to expose an alleged con-
spiracy between his wife of the flesh
Mary, and the materialized spirit of
his first wife, was revealed when he
started an action for a divorce. He is
sixty nine years old and a civil war
veteran.
His principal charge is that his wife
inveigled him into a spiritualistic
seance and there called up the spirit
Of his dead wife. who advised him to
transfer his real estate to the living
wife, ,1@~.
The petition does not set out in de.
tail all that transpired at the seance
It recites that when he refused to sign
away his property as directed by the
spirit of his first wife the second
wife. in the presence Of all the real
and materialized spirits, called him
IAN uneducated. unrefned and ignorant
fool" causing him great humiliation.
It was through the influence of a
daughter by his first marriage that he
was prevented from signing the deed
according to Mr.. Garlock. The peti,
ton alleges that, failing to get his
property in this way, Mrs. Garlock
persuaded him to give note to her
for $500, secured by deed of trust on
real estate, and that week later she
had the locks on the doors Of his room
changed and bolted him out.

Sherman D. Porter or his wife died
first in grade crossing accident at
South Deerfeld. According to the med
ical examiners. both were killed in
stantly.
Relatives on both sides are aligned
for legal fight. The case may be
further complicated if Mr.. Porter's will
makes substantial bequest to his
chauffeur. who was for many years in
his service and whom the, railroad CON-
pany blames for the accident
Since the fatality the Porter home
has been visited by relatives who were
never entertained there in the lifetime
of Mr. and Mrs. Porter. He was eighty
and his wife much younger. If it can
be established that his death occurred
an instant before hers, her relatives
would become heirs to the estate His
relatives intimate that the will bears a
codtcil which alters the provisions Of
the instrument if her death should &C..
cur before his.

band and wife persisted together. the
wife was presumed to have died first.

rulings have been based on close in

candy business and at the time Of his
death was president Of the Kibbe

est relative was an uncle. She be-
came nOvitiate at the age of sixteen

States and Canada have studied music
under Sister Leocadia. It is said that
she was very popular among her pupils
as well as among the sisters of the
convent because she was comely in
appearance and charming in manner
Her beauty had often been remarked
by persons who were in the habit of
visiting or passing the convent.
Mount Loretta Convent is the parent
institution Of the Loretta Sisterhood in
Canada. When inquiries were made
recently at the convent for Sister
Leocadia it was learned that she had
not returned. Mother Joseph, assistant
to the mother superior. said that Sister
Leocadia had gone away. and she
added that she did not know her
whereabouts. Mother Joseph, however,
said she believed that Sister Leocadia
was somewhere in the United States.

BLAST AT PANAMA CANAL.
to A.SUO pounds, of As per cent dyna-
mite constituted the blast, which was
one of the largest ever set off in the
canal. The charge. which was planted
In 541 holes at an average depth of
thirty feet. tore big gap in the bar
r1er, but not to sufficient depth to
permit the water to flow through, as
the sea level channel was at low tide.
J Equally as interesting as the exp!o-
sion was the actual breaking Of the
barrier, the tide creeping steadily up
until it was level with the top of the
gap. A workman seized a shovel and
made small trench, through which
a rill Of water trickled. Gradually it
w1dened until an hour afterward tor
rent, with thirty-fve foot fall, pour
ed through an opening 400 feet wide
into that part of the canal between
Gamboa dixie and Miraflores locks
which had been excavated by steam
shovels. #-- a..... ...

500 feet wide and Al feet deep be-
low mean sea level. was Immediate
ly filled when the waters of the Pa
cif1c touched for the first time the
solid masonry Of the Mirafores locks.
Dredges passed through the opening,
and in few days the last vestiges of
the barrier will be removed, establish
ing practically complete channel at
the Pacific end. The dredges have be-
gun to remove the last barrier of the
Atlantic channel. When that work is
accomplished ships may navigate to
the locks at both ends.
On May IS the engineers of the Pan
anna canal exploded 32,75O pounds of
dynamite that had been loaded into
236 holes to dispose Of the first dixie
holding back the Pacific ocean This
dixie had damned the waters of Ancon
harbor, in the gulf of Panama, until
the engineers practically finished exca-
waiting long stretch Of the canal
near Mirafores. The mighty blast was
successful. and the waters of the Pa
cific flowed into the canal up to the
point where it was checked until the
last blast removed another barrier.

QUEEN MARY BARS
BIG GAMBLING !|I CLUB
Consort Ends Plans For ExcIu-
< Sive Womdn's House.

London.-Queen Mary by reason of
her unconquerable aversion to gam
bling in any form by women has pre-:
vented the establishment of woman's
club in London which, from social
point Of view. by far would have out
ranked any existing woman's club in
the city and which, in fact, would
have been kind of woman's Marlbor-
ough club.
The incident at the same time shows
how, in spite of the queens strong and
constantly demonstrated objection. the
society women of England are equally
determined not to be deprived Of their
big or little gambling.
A plan was formulated a short time
ago to start woman's club the mem
bership of which was to be restricted
to past and present ladies of the vari-
Gus royal households in England. At
first everything pointed to it's imme-
date great success. Nearly every
royal lady residing in England prom
ised to join. and strong body of Ia
dies of the royal households imme-
diately came in.
OF course it was absolutely essen
tial that such club should have the
support of the queen, as she is the
head OF the select body from which
the members were to be selected.
Lady Agneta Montague. the organic
ing secretary of the club. Immediately
approached Queen Mary as soon as the
successful establishment of the club
was assured. A couple of weeks ago
the queen wrote to Lady Agneta that
she would join the club. but only on
the conditions that there should be no
card room in it and that no male Wis
itors should be received.
These conditions were made known
and two weeks suficed to show that
they rendered the formation of the
club impossible. for of the 100 ladies
who formed the original nucleus of
the organization 40 have now with
drawn their names. AS a result the
scheme has been abandoned.
