Court Rules Against
Technical Husband
Divorced Man Loses Out as Executor
of Estate of His Former
Wife.

KENOSHA, WIS, Nov. 22.--Judge
E. B. Belden in the Circuit Court
here drew close line of distinction
between a real" and technical"
husband when he ruled that Fred /.
Rogers was not competent under the
will to execute the estate of his for
mer wife, the late Martha Alice Rog-
ers, a wealthy Delavan woman.
Rogers had been divorced within
two weeks of year, and her proper
ty was left to him with the provision,
provided he is my husband at the
time of my DEATH
Judge Belden held that the intent
of the testatrix was plain and that
she meant a husband who was a hus-
band in fact and not technically, lie
gally such.
He directed the order naming Rog-
ers as executor be set aside and
granted administration for the estate.

that has puzzled all America for gen
erations and furnished minstrel com
panies with jokes countless and i'm
perishable: why does a chicken cross
the road?"
Mr.. Carpenter found that hens are
few degrees less foolish than roost!
ers, and he observed that in hocks
where there are no roosters there was
hen that seemed to be boss--some-
times two Of them. Thereupon ne
conceived the idea of training hens
for enlightened leadership.
He picks out some hens and toofs
an automobile horn, allowing them 10
run as they will After much footing
"shooing" Mr.. Carpenter teaches them
the way the danger lies.
When the hens lave become expert
in the location of sound and always
run away from the horn, he sells them
singly or in pairs to farmers whose
hens and roosters are all foolish.

Billy can go days a. a time without

But his wife is different. She is
motherly and warm hearted and en-
joys sociablity.
Billy isn't much for talking" she
explained. For myself. it's mighty
pleasant to be down here and see so
many folks. We never saw a white
man, except when we came into Daw-
son for supplies-just Indians. And
| was glad even to see an Indian, it
was so lonely. Billy's sort of a chief

She's a "Sour Dough-" ....

ly's" wife. I'm most as much of a
sour dough as Billy. And for three
years Billy and | We're in the woods
together"
Three years in the wilderness, the
ing along perilous trails, crossing
creeping glaciers. fording rushing
rivers, wading through truhda
swamps, scaling mountains, auesting
for gold along creeks that have their
beginning, God knows where!

and Nels and me- And where the
Bonanza runs into the Johnston we
found coarse gold-s9 worth of it.
Reach End of Search.
1--WE had to laugh since some said
there was $50. some 5000 and some
$4,000. But it was coarse gold and
looked good: so Nels sets off for Daw-
son for grubstake-from the Shu-
shannato Dawson is 800 miles, and
Nels travelled afoot!-and Billy and |
went on till we came to the Little Ell
dorado. The ice was out, and we saw
more outcroppings OF rock than be-
fore. And Billy says:
81 guess I'll try a pan There
was IS in that pan!" said Jim Bill
ly's" wife.
1t was then they knew they had
reached the end Of their three years
search.
Billy. he didn't say a word, If I
remember-just tried another pan"
said Jim Blllys' wife.
The food was getting low. They
waited for the return of Nelson, who
was bringing back from Dawson his
friends, Taylor and Doyle, who sprea !
the word of the big strike" The
stampede started. There's a good
sized town in the Shushanna now 1t
took Nelson six weeks to go and re-
turn.
Take Out $4,000.
They took out gold assaying $50, 900.
They can sell their claims for a for
tune and live the rest of their lives in
steam heated suites in swell" hotels.
They can, but will they?
