NEW KING
WILL is FORGERY

Chicago, Feb. 6-In a petition on
file today in the probate court Ed
ward Brundage, attorney general Of
the state. charges that the will of the
late John c. King, filed some time ago,
is forgery and not the last testament
of the millionaire lumber man. March
~ has been fixed as the date for
hearing the attorney-generaPs petit
ton.
After Kings death in 1905 a will
was filed leaving the widow only a
nominal sum. 1t was understood at
the time that she had waived all
dover rights on receipt of $40, 900 be-
fore her husbands death. Some years
later a new will, purporting to be the
last, was discovered by CASTOR Means,
secretary to Mrs. Maude King, who
was tried recently in North Carolina
and acquitted of her murder. This
later document was filed in the pro-
bate court here. BY its terms Mrs.
King received an estate the value of
which was approximately $3,000,000.

AMERICANS BALK
RAIDING PLANES

With the American Army in
France, Tuesday, Feb. 5-(By the
Associated Press)-American artillery
kept up a continuous fire on the
enemy batteries throughout Tuesday
and the Germans responded with the
result that there was lively shelling
along the entire sector.
At the same time the American
anti-aircraft guns were busy repelling
attempts of enemy air men to cross
over the American lines. Two Ger
man aeroplanes finally abandoned the
attempt, after having been shelled
heavily.
A member of the military police
found today three little French chill
dren, girl and two boys, wandering
along a road Immediately. behind the
front, which is shelled very frequently
by the enemy and is regarded as very
dangerous. He turned the children
over to an ambulance driver, who
returned them to their homes in a
nearby village.

CHICAGO GIRL
STUDENT TAKES
DAILY ICE BATH

Chicago, Feb. 6-Miss Alice Gray,
University of Chicago student, who is
living in a hut in the Indiana sand
dunes takes a swim in Lake Michi-
gan every day, regardless OF. weather
or ice.
OF late she has had to walk fully a
mile over ice hummocks to find open
water, but she makes the trip, attice>!
in a bathing suit and carrying b::g
waterproof robe, which she puts on
for the return trip.
Miss Gray says she went to the
lonely sand dunes to get close to ma
ture and readjust her mental and
physical poise, and to get away from
artidciality. Regardless of the weather
she walks five miles to Porter, the
nearest village, for her supplies.
She has lived largely on rabbits and
other game during the winter, and is
crack shot with rifle and revolver,
which explains why tramps give her
hut wide berth.

How much the agents of General
Zumatos, whom he trusted most, had
to do with it 1 had no means of know
ing. Certain it is that he was not
the man to lose time in carrying out
the kings instructions that he should
rouse the revolutionaries into open re.
bellion. That was a task after his own
heart, and it was sure to be effective
ly performed. 1 do know, however,
that such scenes occurred as I have
never before witnessed, and do not
want ever to see again. Mad with an
ger, which few people would regard
as unjustifiable, the patriots assem-
bled in large bands, paraded the
streets, shouted, acclaimed, threaten
ed. A few were armed, all were afire
with fury. The honor sof Greece, they
declared had been sacrificed. 1t was
night when the storm broke, and the
mob swept for some time unresisted
along the main thoroughfares. They
shouted for Venize1cs and Serbia and
the Allies. Not few yelled them
selves hoarse with denunciations OF
the unpopular queen and her emperor
brother.
| Suddenly someone proposed a move
| in the direction of the palace. The
crowd leapt at the suggestion, and,
shouting and gesticulating, were soon
on their way there. L was with the
King and queen when the announce
ment of what was happening was
made to them.
'They are coming, your Majesties-
the people!" shouted a breathless
messenger.
"Who-who?" demanded the queen.
"Are you mad, or -?'
The sound of the rushing mob with
out had by this time penetrated u
palace.
The queen buried her face in her
hands, and trembled violently. Tine
turned pale, but, to do him justice,
he gave no other sign of fear.

ARE ADVERTISED
MEDICINES WORTHLESS?

There is no more reason to con-
demn all advertised medicines than
there is to condemn all physicians or
all druggists. Fakes there are in
every profession and in every trade,
but they do not last long. Take a
medicine like Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound. the true test of
its merit is the fact that for forty
years it has been relieving women of
America from the worst forms of fe-
male ailments, constantly growing in
popularity and favor, until it is now
recognized from ocean to ocean as
the standard remedy for female ills.
