WAITED LONG FOR PROBATE
After Twenty Years Son Produces Fa- ther's WiII-Testator's Instructions
 Had Been Obeyed.

Undiscovered for nearly twenty years after his death, the will of Jo- ham Michael Muller has been offered for probate at Baltimore by his son, John G. A. Muller The testator died March 13. 1896, having made his will on May 31, 1889.
 The paper, yellow and musty with age, left all MT. Muller's property to his wife, Elizabeth Barbara Muller. She died April 30, 1915, and her son was appointed administrator of her estate. He had known of the exist ence of the will for several months prior to his mothers death, but since all the property had been enjoyed by Mrs. Muller as her husband had de- sired, it was not thought necessary to probate the will at that time.
 The son says the property will now be divided between his two brothers and himself, since his mother died in- testate The exact value of the estate has not been determined but it is made up almost entirely of parcels of real estate.

Modernizlne the Roundup.

Each year seems to give the auto mobile new hold on life. The war brought it to the forefront in a new field. The soldier of the present day seldom makes long forced marches like Sherman's march to the sea. He travels by motor car. AS a result, the automobile casualty list is tremen- dous; the average life of a car in the battle lines is estimated at thirty days. But 1t is not only the war zone that has lost part of its picturesqueness through the use of the automobile, the latter has begun to rob the an- nual cattle roundup of some of it's thrills by replacing the horse. This year has seen the ubiquitous car with a cowboy at it's wheel on our western prairies discouraging the cattle from attempts to escape from the ever-nar- rowing circle in the roundup. Many a steer which has given a COW horse a run must feel disconcerted when it bucks up against the four-wheeled steed.-Wall Street Journal

So I did, and after had taken two bottles l felt better and said to my husband, I don't need any more, and he said You had better take it a little longer anyway So I took it for three months and got well and strong.

New Orleans. A written threat to assissinate J. Pierpont Morgan, Sir Cecil Spring-Rice, British ambassador to the United States, and to destroy by bombs British vessels clearinc from American ports was received by local newspaper from a person who signed himself "Pearce"
 Pearce declared that the steamers Kowth Head and Baron Napier which cleared from here July 8 and sailed from Port Ears the following day, probably never would be heard from again The Howth Head sailed for Dublin and Belfast via Norfolk with a merchandise cargo, while the Baron Napier had on board 967 mules for Monmouth, England. Neither vessel carried passengers, it is said but the Baron Napier has aboard large number of muleteers, many of whom are residents of this city.
 Government officials attempted to get in touch with the Baron Napier by wireless. The Howth Head is not
 
 Both vessels should now be some where off the Florida or Georgia coast
 Pearce declared that Frank Holt or Enrich Muenter, was his partner He declared that it was Muenter who warned Charles Frohman and others not to sail aboard the Lusitania.
 Scores of detectives secured the city in an effort to locate Pearce. while squads of British government agents and attaches of local shipping firms searched all British vessels in port in an effort to ascertain whether bombs had been concealed in their cargoes.
 Pearce's letter, which was dated New Orleans, July 10, and which was typewriter, follows in part:
 Holt was my partner and I glorr in the thought of his comradeship. We worked together ever since this CUTS ed war began. Holt is gone. but am still here and I am going to carr on the work the two of us began.
 "The statement that Holt intended to wreck libraries and other such public buildings is lie The capitol is the only building that we planned to wreck, and we partly succeeded in our plan. But what we did plan and what I am going to carry out, is the just idea to stop this country from contributing to the damnah hle hel1iSh barbaric slaughter across the ocean. I may succeed in blowing up but one British ship leaving this port-I may succeed in destroying 10, but I am going to carry out this work and what ever 1 achieve will be satisfactory to me. And then will be ready for Morgan. And after get through with Morgan I will be ready to share my pals fate. I consider it a glorious fate.
 And Sir Cecil Spring Rice Dc you want to know who Muenter was after when he went to Glen Cove Morgan? Partly The real reason for going to Glen Cove was Sir Cecil SpringRice We have trailed Spring. Rice for weeks and we are going to get him yet.'
