FRIENDSHIP REWARDED
Coachman Loaned Savings to En- pIoyer in Need and Is Now Worth $10O,OOO Through Investment.

CN'cago, July 20.-AIthough Will lian Beattie, coachman for the late James Hobart Moore, multi million at more than $100,000, he is today performing the service which has been his custom for nearly 25 years.
 Beattie had been in the employ of Moore for some years when, as a re- suit of his Diamond Match operations, the multi-millionaire had been , stripped of his wealth overnight
 T was in an awful fix" MT. Moore used to say. 1T was worth less than nothing, when Betattie came to me. He had been to the bank and drawn out every cent he had saved-$2, 1000. Take it. he said: I got it from you, and you're welcome to keep it as long as you want it. '
 MT. Moore accepted the sum to tide him over some minor transac- tions which brought him large pro- fits and reestablished his credit. Then came the organization of the com panies which brought great wealth to the Moores.
 Moore never forgot the service of Beattie. He paid back the s2,OOO many times over, and placed Beattie in the way of investments that netted him more than $100,0O0.
 Anyone who worked for Mr. Moore would have done what I did, said Beattie after the funeral of his late employer yesterday at Lake Geneva

MESSAGES TO GUARDSMEN.
Western Union Announces Reduction
 In Telegraph Rates.

The Western Union Telegraph con- pany announces that effective imme- diately, and until further notice, it will make telegraphic transfers of money to members of the National Guard who have been mustered into the Federal service at the Mexican border, at half the usual charge for such service.
 It is understood that in their hur- ried departure many of the guards men failed to reckon on the high cost of living at the border of the many conveniences and comforts which are not included in the provision which Uncle Sam makes for his soldiers, and their relatives and friends doubt less will be interested to learn of this arrangement whereby much apprecf- ated funds can be quickly transferred by telegraph at a low cost.
 The proposition is more attractive from the fact that messages of af- lection, cheer, etc., may be lncorpor- ated in the money transfers a t g small added charge for the extra words in volved.

TAINTED FORTUNE
 NO LONGER TABOO
Miss KitChing Decides to Accept
 Miserly Uncles Wealth

New York, July 20.-Miss Edith H. Kitching, Il Seaman avenue, has fin ally decided to accept the "tainted' money accumulated by her uncle, Francis F. Ripley, who gave up a job as bank clerk more than twenty years ago to lend money on his own ac- count, and loaned it so successfully that when he died, November Il last, in a furnished room in Schermerhor,l street, Brooklyn, he had amassed a fortune of $201, ,498.
 At that time it was thought Miss Kitching would get s5O,OOO, the amount Ripley had Jotted opposite her name in tattered memorandum book containing other items, but she having detected a fancied taint in the man. ner of it's accumulation, announced that she would accept no part of the estate. Later after the transfer tax appraiser had disallowed all other claims, holding Miss Kitching the sole heir, she manifested signs of 8 chang ing mind.
 That she has changed her mind, definitely and finally, has become known through an application to Sur ] rogate Ketcham of Brooklyn for per- | mission to compromise claims aggre-
  granted, Miss Kitching will receive S126, 498 instead of S50,000 she at first refused. The purpose of the compromise is to avoid expensive litigation.
 The claimants, who have consented to withdraw suits already begun and l waive interest amounting to $15,5 | on condition that their claims are l paid in full, are: Brooklyn Children S l Aid Society, $1O0O0; Long Island College hospital, 20,0OO; Hospital of | St. Giles the Cripple, $1O,OOO; Wayside l Home, $13,000; Brooklyn Hospital, 1 1000, and Annie A. Ingalls,, $10,0O0. l The names of these clarr->~DF>@sith il h ! the amounts mentioned jotted along- l side, were found in the same memo 1 randum book in which the money lender had written his niece'S name l and were taken to indicate the writ l CTS testamentary intentions. WbetF- 1 CT from carelessness or characteri5- l tic impulse to save lawyers fees, MT. l Ripley never put his testamentary
 wishes into legal form, and for that
 reason the appraiser held that he l had died intestate and gave the en- | tire estate to Miss Kitchlng as the l only living relative.

Miss Kitching gets fve-eighths of the estate because of the very stinginess of her uncle, which prompted Ter to refuse s5O,000 in the beginning. Had ne made his will along the lines laid
 down in the little memorandum book, paying the accustomed fees as men of much lesser fortune do, his niece, who has swimped and saved as he did, out for different reasons, would get $75, 1000 less than she now receives.

HIS BED COST HIM $40
And Tom Godfrey Made 1t and Slept
in 1t Himself.

When Officers Morgan and Richards
answered a call to 1873 Van Buren,
they found all the carpet in the 1ouse
piled in the middle of a room a few
rugs thrown on for good measure Ind
Tom Godfrey. a painter, on his back
in the middle of the pile with the fam
lily album for a pillow.
Tom was ''soused," "spiflicated,"
intoxicated" Tom was drunk. When
he went home he was unable to find
a bed to suit his fancy and he had
an inspiration He would make his
own bed and lie in it. After the bed
was made his head was too low. The
handiest thing was the book contain
ing the family pictures and he appro-
priated it for a pillow.
His wife and daughter objected TO
the use OF the carpets and album in
that manner and called the police.
They took Godfrey to the police sta
ton last night and this morning he
appeared before Judge Yates in pc
lice court. The only explanation he
could give for the disarrangement of
the Godfrey household effects was that
ne was getting ready to move. Inasmuch
as the police found a large flask of
liquor in his pocket Judge Yates fig
ured that Godfrey wasn't intending to
move in the immediate future, when
the police found him, and he assessed
a fine of $40.

PUT STOMACH
In FINE
CONDITION
Says Indigestion Results From an Ex
cess of Hydrochloric Acid.

Undigested food deplayed in the
stomach decays, or rather, ferments
the same as food left in the open air,
says a noted authority. He also tells
US that Indigestion is caused by Hyper
acidity, meaning, there is an excess of
hydrochloric acid in the stomach
which prevents complete digestion and
starts food fermentation. Thus every
thing eaten sours in the stomach
much like garbage sours in a can.
forming acrid fluids and gases which
initiate the stomach like a toy balloon.
Then we feel a heavy, lumpy misery
in the chest. we belch up gas, we
eructate sour food or have heartburn,
flatulence, water-brash or nausea
He tells US to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead, get from any phar-
macy four ounces of Jad Salts and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast and drink while
it is effervescing and furthermore, to
continue this for a week While re-
lief follows the first dose, it is i'm
portant to neutralize the acidity, re-
move the gas-making mass, start the
liver, stimulate the kidneys and thus
promote a free flow of pure digestive
juices.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia and sodium
phosphate This harmless salts is
used by thousands of people for stom-
ach trouble with excellent results

SUES FOR ALIMONY
Woman Asks the Court to
Award Her Money
Which Her Husband Usually
Spends on "Other Women"

Jessie Petit, the woman who
charged last week that she was locked
out OF her own house at 324 Madison
street by her husband and another wo-
man, has filed suit for separate main
tenance in the Shawnee county district
court. In so doing she followed the
advice of Judge Robert Yates of the
police court, who gave George Petit,
the husband, a 500 fine and a verbal
blistering in police court Tuesday.
Grace Tyler is the woman named in
the affair Mrs. Petit states in her
petition that her husband admitted
having relations with other women but
stated that she was not slick enough
to catch him at it" According to evil
dence offered in police court and cited
in the petition, Mr.. Petit was under
rating his wife's capabilities. She ar
ranged so it would be possible for
him to pull off stunt if he so desired
and he fell for it. Mrs Pettits broth
er was on the job also and by making
frequent trips from a hole to a bed
room window he CLEANED enough evil
dence to net Petit a 500 fine in po-
lice court.
He Denies Everything.
At the same hearing Petit denied
everything. He declared he was at
home on the night In question, but
that he was alone with a big light
burning. He denied any knowledge of
a Grace Tyler and when two of her
letters We're offered as evidence he de-
c1ared he did not know the writer.
Mrs Petit says in her petition Pet
tit has been spending his money and
time on Grace Tyler for a year and
that he has been urging her to get a
divorce so he could spend all his mon
ey and all his time on the Tyler wo-
man. But there's nothing doing along
that line. Mrs. Petit doesn't want a
divorce. She wants separate main
tenance for herself and two children
She asks for temporary alimony of SIS
a month and permanent alimony OF
$40 a month. She is living with heI
