BRADLEY HEIR
Niece Takes Prece-
dence Over Adopted
Child, High Court
Holds

In the case of the estate OF
James w. Bradley deceased, the
supreme court afTirms the judg-
ment Of the county court, holding
that an adopted child cannot in
herit from his parents kindred,
James w. Bradley, of Mflwau-
kee, died leaving an estate OF
about $4,000,0O0. He left no heirs
except a niece, Edna B. Twedy,
who was the child of a deceased
brother. An adopted child of an
other deceased brother, William T.
Bradley, claimed half the estate.
In his decision Justice owen
said
"The status resulting from a.
doption proceedings is not nat.
ural one. 1t is a civil or contrac-
tual status. One may have the
right to assume the status of a
father to a stranger of the blood
but he has no moral right to impose
upon his brother the status of an
uncle to his adopted son. BY
adoption proceedings the adopters
can make for themselves an heir,
but they cannot thus make one Of
their kindred"

O. Minority An Elk
change Of Securities

Another step toward actual con-
solidation OF the Chicago, ST. Paul,
Minneapolis & Omaha railway with
the Chicago g. Northwestern Rail
way company was taken today
when the latter's directors autho-
rized an offer to the Omaha min
GRITTY stockholders for an exchange
of securities.
The Northwestern railway, which
already controls the Omaha
through ownership Of a majority Of
it's common and preferred shares,
now proposes to bring in the re-
mainder of the stock by exchang-
ing three shares of it's common for
two shares of Omaha preferred
and five shares of common, for
seven shares of Omaha common
The offer will not become efrec-
tive unless the number Of Omaha
stockholders accepting the plan is
satisfactory to the Northwestern
management Although it will re-
main open until May 81, 1925, the
Northwestern reserves the right TO
declare the plan operative at any
time prior thereto.
If the exchange Of securities is
carried out, it is expected that
merger of the two roads, which are
grouped under the Union Pacific
Northwestern" system in the inter
state commerce commissions ten.
tative plan, would follow at an ear
ly date.
A merger Of this nature would,
no doubt bring results of a benelc-
ial nature for Baraboo.

Beef Cattle
Receipts of cattle today were the
