HEIRS FIGHTING FOR
OLD MANS ESTATE
Relatives and Others of the Late ChaS
J. Anderson Want Property tsti-
mated to be Worth $4,000

In an effort to break the will of his
father, Charles ]. Anderson who died
in this city last year, Samuel An
derson has brought suit. thru his at
torneys, Reeves Crollard & Reeves to
set aside the will and have the estate
divided between himself and the wild
ow. Mr.. Anderson to his widow,
with whom he did not live at the time
Of his death left 500, $40 to his son
and the balance of the estate, esti-
mated as worth $4,000 to his friends,
N. A. Nelson and wife. The first
hearing in the case will come up in
the Superior court next Wednesday at
which time the Nelson's will be repre-
sented by the law firm Of Reneau,
Thomas & Hannah of Wenatchee.
The deceased mans son and his
widow were much disappointed at the
small allowances provided for them.
and Mr.. Anderson, jr., alleges that his
father was coerced into making the
Nelson's his heirs For months prior
to his death Mr.. Anderson took his
meals at the home of Mrs. N. A. Mel
son who conducts a boarding house.
He often said that they were the best
friends he had in the world and to re-
pay them for their kindness, left them
the bulk of his property.
The late Charles ]. Anderson had
made his home in this city for many
years, and aside from his drinking
habit was an exceptionally good man.
The last year before his death he was
almost constantly in a state Of intoxi-
cation.
His last will was drawn about a
month before his death by attorney L.
]. Nelson, who is the executor Of the
estate, in the presence of Gus Nelson
and Mr.. and Mrs. N. A. Nelson.

ASSESSOR JOHNSON
TALKS TO TAXPAYERS
Meeting Held In Commercial Club Rooms
Thursday Evening-Thirty-
Are Present

In response to the announcement
made last week goodly bunch of the
heaviest taxpayers in the town and sur
rounding country met County Assessor
Johnson Wednesday evening.
Mr.. Johnson stated that he realized
that taxes were high and the complain
made thereat was general all over tht
county and state, and the only thing
he could do at this time was to make
the valuations as equitable as possible
to which end he asked some of the
citizens who were familiar with loca
conditions and better posted on relative
values than anybody else, TO assist Mr..
N. Patterson, who he had appointed tc
make the assessment in this township.
He said valuations would not be gener-
ally raised but that an effort would be
made to straighten out some inequali-
ties in valuation which furnished ground
for complaint in the past. He could
think of no better or more satisfactory
way to accomplish this than to ask
three taxpayers, long resident here and
familiar with values to meet with Mr..
Patterson and go over his valuations
and point out in their opinion where
they were too low or too high in their
judgment, and if possible arrive at a
fair ane Just valuation. The following
gentlemen were appointed on the COM
mittee, H. E. Can. G. A. Hamilton
and Nick Kincherf.
One statement made by Mr.. John
son in the course of his remarks must
have come as an astonishing revelation
to those present, which was to the ef-
feet that 42 per cent, OF almost one
half Of all taxes paid, are required to
keep up our public schools. He also
stated that the bonded indebtedness Of
the county had been practically wiped
out the past year. The warrant indebt-
edness against the road and bridge
fund, was large and growing larger
every year. The facts in regard to
county finances were not without inter
est to taxpayers.

PROSPECTS FOR BASEBALL
ARE UNUSUALLY BRIGHT
-Four Club League has Now Been Or
gaaized-LeayenwOrth Will Have
Strong Team

That there is no longer any doubt of
Leavenworth having ball team this
year is the belief of J. B. Adams of
this city one OF the prime movers in
the four team league which was formed
in Wenatchee last week. The league
which has as yet not been officially
named will compose the towns OF Lea
venworth, Wenatchee, Waterville and
Chelan and it is the intention to start
the season April 5th. After that time
a regular schedule of games will be ar
ranged. Arthur Mcclure who headed
a brush league in the Big Bend coun-
try last year will be president and man
ager OF the new organization.
After the formal organization of the
league all future changes in the person
mel of the teams must be approved by
the president of the league. He is
given autocratic powers and the idea
is to have only amateur baseball OF the
best character. From the gate re-
ceipts the expenses are paid and the
balance of the money is then turned
over to President Mcclure and every
80 days general distribution will be
made to the various players of the four
teams.
Already ball players and fans have
commenced to congregate in the ev-
ening at different places and talk over
the prospects of the team this summer
and it is likely that move will be
made in the near future to form team.
From the following list it will be seen
that Leavenworth can get together a
pretty strong aggregation for the COM
ing summer. Among those whom we
can now think OF who would join the
team, we mention Jimmy Miller, Fred
Lee, Arthur Brown, Jim Manure, Burt
Brown, Bob Smith, Billy Smith, c. B.
McDermott, Jack Mahoney, Ted
Fromm. One OF the hardest positions
on the team to fill, will be that Of a
catcher. none Of the above having done
much backstop work. However it is
more than likely that there will be all
kinds of baseball material show up in
side Of the next month or six weeks.
The greatest drawback at the pre-
sent time is in securing suitable
grounds, but the promoters have sew
eral sites in view and do not believe
that they will have any trouble from
this source. It is possible that a com
pany may be formed to buy a park and
build the fence and grandstand.

KUMTUx CLUB DANCE
Firemen'S Hall Presented Brilliant Scene
Thursday Evening and the Affair
Was a Decided Success

The card and dancing party given
by the women of the Kumtux Club was
one of the most enjoyable social affairs
given this season. The hall Was dec
GRATED in red hearts in honor Of St.
Valentine, and as it was the evening Of
Lincoln's birthday his portrait occu-
pied a prominent place, draped with
flags. On the punch table red carna-
tions and hearts were used, and the
red shaded lights cast soft glow over
the many beautiful gowns worn by the
dancers. The Wenatchee orchestra
furnished the music and dancing was
kept up until late hour.

way Of showing the superiority OF the

by the way they sell in the markets oi

point it out. When the apples from a

TINE FOR KILLING
RELEASED AT EXAMINING TRIAL
SOME WEEKS AGO-AGAlN AR
RESTED ON MURDER CHARGE.

Chickasha, Okla, March 26.-To be
tried for murder, acquitted and later
re-arrested and charged with the same
offense, is the experience of Ed Cor.
nett, who some weeks ago was re.
leased at the examining trial on a
joint charge with his brother Henry,
for the murder of Faunt Downey at
Verden. At that time, Henry Cornett
was held.
Ed Cornett was re-arrested Thurs
day when he came to Chickasha on
personal business, and his examining
trial set for Friday morning at II
o'clock. The same witnesses appear
ing at the former trial have been
summoned and the evidence that is
expected to be brought out, will be a
1t is the idea of the county
attorney that Cornett was TOO
hastily released, as the evidenc g
showed that he stood by with a
revolver in his hand while his bro
ther. Henry Cornett, did the actual
shooting that killed Downey. The
county attorneys office holds that
the Justices court where the former
tNal was held, did not constitute a
bar.

SUIT FILED
AGAINST BONDSMEN
MAYOR AND CITY ATTORNEY BE.
GIN ACTION AGAINST McQUAT.
TIERS co. BOND.

For the past six months Mayor Rob
erts has been trying to get the bro
ken places in the pavement repaired
by the contractors who under the
terms Of their contract were pledged
to keep the streets in repair for a
certain number Of years. The mayor
stated that he had tried repeatedly to
get some satisfaction from the con-
tractors, but only got promises that
were not fulfilled and now he says that
suit has been filed against the bond
Of the company to make good the
contract.
There are several broken places in
the pavement that are gradually get
ting worse on account of not being
repaired promptly, and the sight is not
a pleasant one for strangers to con-
template.
The mayor stated this morning that
there was something going to happen
or the streers were going to be repair
ed at once.
