In speaking of the conditions pre
vailing, Mr. Heithlefsen said that in
llamhurg there were people moving
in every direction and apparently as
busy as liees, husiness being plenty,
the people prosperous and money

The opposite he said was the ease in
England where he also visited and only
recently. In the latter place he said
husiness seemed 'to drag and money
to he scare;' with not sullieient em
ployment for the people, a great many
of whom were out of employment and
many in poor circumstances. Manv
havr immigrated to Canada where
they find conditions much better.

The case of probating of the will of
the late J. II. Bauer, of near Wabish,
and the settlement of which lias been
contested for a number of years, has
finally been disposed of.
When a mere child Mrs. Will Pet
erson was adopted by they deceased
and a promise was made to the fath
er, that at the time of death, he would
will the child one-half of hisestate.
At the time of death a will had been
made in which the entire estate was
given to J. A. Bauer, a son, for life,
and then to go to his three children,
thus leaving out Mrs. Peterson,
who had lived for thirty-eigl t years
with the deceased. Mrs. rctrrson
filed bills for services, which were re
sisted by the heirs, and the matter
was finally carried to the supreme
court, which disallowed the claims.
In the evidence adduced there was
testimony to the effect that a contract
was made with the father of the then
child that one-half jofthc estate would
be given at death to Mrs. Peterson,
The court snid, ' Why do you not sue
on your rights in the matter." This
was done and finally found its way
into the supreme court, with the de
cision that she was entitled to one
half of the estate, and ordering the
lower court to so make disposal of the
case.
The amount of the estate during
the time has bee 1 ?'V2!)l.f0 while the
income of the farm was SKi'J.l.OO mak
ing a net revenue and leaving a pro
fit of $l,333..r)0. This with the farm
is now divided making the (state
which is composed of hundred dollar
land, to be worth, something over
$22,0X).(K). The case was begun in
1!H); and has been in litigation for

have since become members of tin
supreme court, one being Jesse L.
Root, formerly of this place, were
barred fnm sitting on the case
