ALL CLIENTS CLAIM RELATION TO DEAD
Striking Trmlmniir f.lvrn that Up
date on 11 ul Write, When
AllfRnl Kin fn- Thy Hot
Letters from Him.
vVlth no ! than five Attorneys, each
pulling In a illfTi-n nt direction and with
a dirfctptit object In view, Jule Ylnson
halrr's lot In the county court was not a
harrr one.
The matter under consideration was
whether or not Michael Fiihey of South
Omaha shall tie appointed Administrator of
the estate of the lute John Walker, the
circumstances of whoo life rather than of
hla death were such an to attract much
attention at the time of his demise, for,
while a supposedly poor man of recen
trlo and rattier miserly habits, when an old
trunk, which vi ahout his only worldly
possession, was opened after his death,
Dearly Is.noo In money and valuables was
found. Bo far as the few with whom ho
associated knew, the dead man had not a
relative In the world. His money and
effects were turned over to the proper
authorities and stops taken to administer
the estate. Sln.-o that time no less than
twelve people have turned up, claiming
to he relatives and heirs of Walker, though
strangely enough, norm of the twelve, with
one or two exceptions, claimed any rela
tionship with each other.
Mrs. Cntherlne llerr of Iloston was one
of the first to file a claim against the
estate, alleging that sho was Walker's sis
ter, and, through her attorney, asking that
Michael Fancy of South Omaha bo ap
pointed administrator of the estate.
J. J. preen appeared as counsel for her
at the hearing Tucdny and It wa
to oppose the appointment of Mr. Fnhey
by the court that Judge olabangh, as coun
sel for a woman In Ottawa. Canada, Mrs.
Isabel Scram, who claims to he another
Ulster, JefTcrK Jlowells Shotwell for
Mrs. Dixon of Baltimore, who says she Is
the derni man's mother, and J. J. Hreen,
for Mrs. Herr, appeared In the case.
Says 'Walker Could Not Write.
Frank Morlnrty of South Omaha was put
upon the stand and testified to knowing
Walker during his lifetime. The chief
point of his evidence was that Walker had
told him that ha could not write and that
the witness was In the habit of writing
Walker's name to pay checks and other
documents for him. Tho Importance of this
evidence Is duo to the fact that it Is under
stood the claims of some of the other al
leged relatives of Walker base their claims
on having received many letters from him
written in hta own hand. Mr. Morlarty
also testified that when he saw Mrs. Herr
he at once remarked a strong facial resem
blance In her to the man. whom he had
known as John Walker. Several other wit
nesses who had known and worked with
Walker during his life testified to the same
resemblance and corroborated the previous
evidence in a general way.
County Court Clerk Leslie gave evidence
of the opening 'of Walker's trunk and of
the finding therein 17.874, besides articles
of clothing and some pictures, several of
Which latter he Identified.

This has become a household
word
throughout the United States, through the
judicious efforts of the largest manufac
turers of cocoa in the world to bring the,
merits of their product to the notice of the
publlo at large. The Royal cocoa factory
of C. J. Van Houten & Zoon at Weesp,
Holland, Is the nucleus and Ufa of that
place. The works cover Over eighty-five
acres and have been operated by the pres
ent owners and their predecessors of the
same name for over seventy-five years. A
remarkable Incident In the history of the
food produots of the country Is that the
glg&ntlo buslncaa of this firm, aggregating
mill ions of dollars, with a capital of many
millions, should represent the manufacture
of as simple an article, as cocoa. Tim
secret of U la that this gift of nature to
man Is of Inestimable dietetic value. There
are all sorts of raw cocoas, and, like tea
and coffee, their flavor and taste Is depend
ent upon cultivation, the character of the
oil and ollmatlo conditions, so that a manu
facturer who alms to produce a finished
product of the finest quality is forced to
pay particular attention to securing the
Very highest grade of raw material. Bo
great Is the Interest taken in this dlreotlon
that Van Houten & Zoon have given spe
cial attention to the cultivation of cocoa,
id to the securing of the choicest grades
. of cocoa beans from various sources. Hav
ing been for Be many years one of the
largest buyers In the world, It follows that
they have unusual facilities for command
ing Influence In the markets of the world.
Olven the. highest grade of raw material,
they have added to these natural advan
tages those of sclentlilo treatment, and the
result Is the famous coooa which Is so
familiar to consumers throughout the
world. The marvelous thing Is that tills
coooa should obtain such a strong foothold
throughout the United States, when do
mestic ooouas are auld for about one-half
of the price, and this Is the highest evi
dence of Its great superiority In flavor,
taste an4 dtetetlo value. Philadelphia (Pa.)

The folowlng question was put to ns
many members of the Board of Education,
as could be reached yesterday i
"Have you signed a paper or do you know
anything about an agreement to pay Super
intendent 1'earne $6,000 In the event that he
was tendered a position as head of tbe
Milwaukee schools 7''
The replies follow:
Ed K. lxwer Emphatically, no. I was
approached on the question of raising Mr.
Pearse's salary to $5,000 a year and re
fused my vote. I said I was willing. If
necessary, to retain him, to vote for a
reasonable increase say, JI.OX) a year. He
ports that friends of Superintendent Pearse,
business men or others, have threatened to
take away insurance business from my
firm if I did not vote as they wished In
the matter of the superintendent's salary
are utterly false. Such a thing has cot
been hinted at to me.
Dr. W. H. Christie If I had signed any
such agreement It would be strictly my
own business. I dont care to answer the
question.
Wlllard II. Hutts I have rot signed any
such agreement and have no knowledge
of anything of the kind be tug la existence.
Never Heard of It.
Emll Cermak Have not signed eny such
paper and didn't know there was one. I
am a member of the salaries committee
and not a word has been said to me about
Increasing the aalury of tbe superintendent,
other than what has beep reported in the
World-Herald.
M. F. Funkhouser I have signed no
such paper and know nothing about any
agreement of the kind. I should not be
surprised to see a petition from business
men asking us to raise Superintendent
Pearse'a salary in order to keep him Vere.
I have understood that the salary ot the
Milwaukee position Is to be made ffi.OOO a
year.
W. R. Hotnan I haven't signed any

say what the board will do.
H. L. Krelder Have signed no paper; do
not know of any such agreement existing.
John L. McCacue No, sir. No agreement
made so far, as I know, and I have not
been consulted regarding a proposed in

Now Comes Pesfie,
Huh F. Mcintosh I know nothing
about any euch paper or agreement.
Oeorge D. Rice No such agreement has
been made, so far as I know. If so, I
iiave not signed It.
Superintendent of Instruction Fearse
said:
"I am not ready to say whether or not I
shall accept the offer from Milwaukee and
shall reserve my decision until the formal
tender comes by mall. Telegrams from
members of the Milwaukee Board of Edu
cation confirm the press dispatches. Re
garding tho report that ten members ef
the board had signed an agreement to
raise my salary, It Is not true. What
action the local board will take I, of course,
do not know.
"However, Omaha is not rn a class with
Milwaukee as regards population and
wealth, and I do not think It reasonable for
this city to try to pay ss much salary as
Milwaukee le able to do."
The records slusw that Mr. Pearse was
e looted superintendent on July 7, 1902, In
the following manner:
on motion the board proceeded to ballot
for a superintendent of Instruction. The
chair appointed C'ennak. Mcintosh ajid
M.iynard as tellers. C. U. Pearse received
IS votes. Ulank, 1 vote. The president de
clared C. i. IWm elected superintendent
of limtruotloo.
On motion the board then proceeded U
ballot on the number of years the super
intendent of Instruction should hold his of
fice under the election Just declared The
result of the ballot was as follows: For
- ---- - " " im. iiiiuwi; r or
three years, 10 voles; for one year only. 1
dent
- ,- ", tmio. ue presiuen
then dec ami f u r ,i " " "
Intendent of Instruction for three years
Mr. Wood then offered the following reso
lution: "Resolved. That the president and secre
tary of this board be and are hereby au
thorised to enter Into a contract for a
term of three years from August 1, lfra. to
August. 1S06, with the superintendent of
instruction elected this evening, at the
salary ned by the rules now In force end
governing this board."
This resolution was adopted unanimously
by the fourteen members present. The
contract was executed on December 16,
1902, and Is signed by President Barnard,
Secretary Burgess and Superintendent
Pearse. It provides that for ths three
year term, ending In August, 1906, at a
salary of $300 a month, the board having
the right to annul the contract at eny
time for "sufficient reason." No stipula
