| of March 8, 1912, which provides tha , an amendatory water right application may be made at an increased buildin: charge of $66 per acre and payment may then be made in graduated install ments, as follows: First fnstallment $5.50 per acre; second, $1 per acre pc year; third, $2 per acre per year ' fourth, S3 per acre per year; fiftl $5 per acre per year; sixth, $7 per acr, acre per year; seventh, $9 per acre per year; eighth. $10 per acre pel year; ninth, $11 per acre per year tenth, SIP per acre per year.
 ITO those who so chose this method blanks were provided which could bt signed and amended to their origina application increasing this charge fol building the irrigation system from $55 to $66, and the statement reads at that time, in transmitting this ia formation to the entrymen and water right aplicants:
 "The increase in the charge iron $55 to $66 to reimburse the govern ment for the interest on the deferred payments and the annual. operation and maintenance of charge per irriga ble acre and the initial payment of $1 per acre for the gross acreage of the entry remains the same as heretofore.
 It was under this and the seconC public notice that AS per cent of the c--' !, being financially depleted IL having cost much more to clear grub and stump level, border and ditch the land, than it had been rep resented to them by the government thct 1t would cost, that these unfor tunate entrymen were forced to avail themselves of the graduated payme~t plan," did do so. And their more for tunate neighbors having some avail able money left with which to make the payment of $55 per acre, did not do so.
 It was in this position that the set tiers upon the reservation unit in Cal ifornia opposed in the latter part of 1914, when Congress created the 20 year extension law and then is when their troubles became more burden some and grievances crept in as to the basis of future charges.
 The more fortunate class for the same services paying from $25 to $50 per year during the next four years on 40-acre unit, on a basis of calcula- tion; and the unfortunate, through the lack of funds were unable to do much if any paying, were advised that they must pay according to the same calcu- lation and upon the same basis, $42 to $52 per acre for the next four an nual payments under the 20 year ex- tension law, and when their burdens appear, it seems to have become un- bearable, they revolted.
 This position was stated to the sec retary of the interior, but the secretary anticipating their position, had already begun to act, yet unknown to them, but, inadvertently, at the same time.
 The first meeting to take up this matter in an organized way was held January IA, 1915, resulting in tn,. presentation of a petition covering

Hawaii's typical flower-that is, the
flower that many peolpe call more
typical of the islands than any other

will be on display at the National
Flower Show which Cleveland will

blooms being we'll known.
Secretary NJ. A. Vincent Of the Clev-
Gland show wrote to Secretary Taylor
and Mr.. Higgins and both took the
matter UP. 1t was realized that fresh
flowers could not be sent from Ha"
wan owing to lack of time as well as
the difficulties OF .transporta ton and
distance The artificial hibiscus sug-
gestion met with favor in Cleveland
and on Saturday Higgins received a
cablegraIn asking him to send on the
exhibit
This show will be one of the most
notable in the United States. One lit
tie feature is of unusual interest. The
management is bringing from the es-
tate of Adolph Lewisohn, near New
York, several monster chrysanthe-
mum. They are IA feet in diameter
and SO tall that they cannot pass under
the ordinary railroad bridges. To get
them to Cleveland, special cars with
lowered tanks have been secured and
the chrysanthemum will travel in
much the same luxurious state that
the lordIy and obese hippopotamus
does with a circus when it moves by
railroad. i.,-

CONTESTS s. WILL
Sr$.-<- 81 - I'll .
Alleges Undue Influence BY
Theosophist; Says Father
Not in Sound Mind

SAN DIEGO, Cal.-When formal
application was made today fer pro-
bate of the will of the late A. G. Spald-
ing, known as the father of baseball
Keith Spalding, a son, filed a contest,
alleging that his father was complete
ly dominated by his wife and Nine.
Katherine Tingley, the noted theoso-
phist, for several years prior to his
death, September 9 last.
Keith Spalding alleges that for
several years before his death his
father was not in his right mind; that
his mental and physical strength were
impaired by advancing age, by sick
ness and by business worries.
That the will was procured through
undue influence of his wife, the said
Elizabeth Churchill Spaldfng, and
Nine. Katherine Tingley, and was the
is another allegation.
A fortune of $2,000,000 was accumu'
lated by Spalding, according to the
contest This, declares the son in his
attack on the will, was the result of
the joint industry of his father and
mother, and was accumulated before
the second marriage, which occurred
in 1900. Spalding's first wife died in
1899.
That Nine Katherine Tingley took
immediate charge of the body and had
it embalmed one hour after death and
cremated "a hours afterwards is an
other sensational charge in the docu
ment.
In the will the entire estate is left
to the widow, except $1,000 each to
the son Keith. to Durand Churchill, a
son of Mrs. Churchill Spalding by her
first marriage. and Albert c. Spalding
.Jr., an adopted son.
