FOR MANS ESTATE
Harry o'Brien, Who Died in
May, Was Married Twice,
but Left No Will.
DAUGHTER IS INVOLVED

Two wives are contending for a
share in the estate OF Harry O'Brien,
who died May Is at Excelsior Springs,
Mo.
His first wife, Ella, was married
to him at Fremont, May II, 1902.
On September 10. 1911, she was
granted divorce and, because her
husband had no visible assets, she
received no alimony. Since that time
she has provided for their daughter,
Viola, now IS years old.
Following the divorce, O'Brien
married again. This wife also sur
wives him. He died without making
will and his second wife could claim
only one-third of his estate. In addi-
ton to this, she was granted 500 by
County Judge Crawford
Now comes his first wife and sues
for $2,82l.55 for the maintenance and
education of their daughter, since
their divorce to the present time and
from this time until she becomes of
age.

The fact that President Wilson
is campaigning for a greater pre-
paredness on the part of the
American people for defensive or
offensive operations, IN ease of a
rupture with another nation,
should be enough evidence in it.
self that there IS a great need for
such preparedness The Presi-
dent is in a position TO know best
the conditions confronting the
country; he has demonstrated his
aversion to any resort TO arms !;
even his enemies give him credit
for his cool and intelligent con-
sideration of the serious questions
that have confronted, and cOntin-
ne to confront his administration
and, when in the face of these
facts, he goes up and down the
land asking people TO support
him with a greater army and
navy, there must be a mightier
reason for such request than most
Of us have yet come to e0mpre-
bend. 1t looks like the time had
certainly arrived to forget our
