T , R , TO MAKE SPEECH He Will Speak in Indiana in Bever- idge's Campaign for Election. Oyster Bay , July 8. Albert J. Bev- eridge , United States senator from In diana and one of the most prominent and most consistent of progressive republicans , came down from Saga more Hill yesterday afternoon with a promise from Theodore Roosevelt to deliver a campaign speech in his fight for re-election to the senate. Mr. Bev- erldge departed content and smiling , but he left it for the colonel to make the announcement of the proposed speech in the senator's behalf. And this Is what Mr. Roosevelt said : "Mr. Foulke and Mr. Swift came to Sagamore Hill last night and spent the night here. They came to request me to go to Indiana and speak in be half of Senator Beverldge. I promised them that I would. " He added that ho had agreed to make only one speech for the senator and as far as is now known , he will make only one. The time and place for this speech has not been announc ed. Those who have followed the con ferences at Oyster Bay since Colonel Roosevelt returned share the belief that he has been feeling his way cau- tiously in his attitude toward the ad ministration and the Insurgents , but yesterday's incidents are considered the most Important developments. Senator Beverldgo Is making his fight for re-election as an insurgent. He Is opponed by John W. Kern , who ran with Bryan In the last campaign. In his fight the senator is placing himself squarely against President Taft , Insofar as the tariff figures. The law which the president had defended as the tariff measure ever Is denounc ed by the senator and the same re publican convention which endorsed Boverldgo for another term virtually repudiated the law. In the senate Beverldge fought the bill to the last and then voted against it. It is pointed out , however , that with this exception President Taft and the senator from Indiana have come to gether as far as administration poll clos are concerned. There has been no break between them. The presi dent entrusted to the senator the con- duct of two administration measures at last session of congress the state- hood bill nnd the Alaska government bill. And although the senator work- ed faithfully with the insurgent band in the senate , and had a hand in the alteration of President Taft's railroad abill ho supported the administration rogiilarly In the last session when GOTHAM I TO ' GREET JACK" !

The state Is unable .o afford relief for the over-crowded ' condition of the Insane ward of the Douglas county hospital because the state Institutions are equally congest ed , according to a letter received by Robert Smith , clerk of district court , from Governor Shallenberger.

I have also se cured an opening here for n man from your county. The two that you men tion I will endeavor to have taken charge of In some of the Institutions.

A VISIT TO THE WILSON FARM. James Klnnlburgh , Who Bought His Uncle's Home , Does Not Worry. Tecumseh. Neb. , July 8. Six miles- north and three miles west of the lit tle town of Tecumseh Is the house where Judge John Wilson lived and waited for his banished son to return. Young . Wilson disappeared thlrty-fiva years ago. On his return a short while ago he found that he will be required to answer ten questions before he can clafrii his * father's estate of 430,000. July 10 he will be required to answer tjhese questions by James Livingston , the county judge. The road to the old Wilson home stead Is rough ; sharp , jagged rocka are frequent and the hills are steep. There are no stretches of prairie with level roads on which John Wilson could speed his 2-year-old roadster. Perhaps this did not satisfy the sportIng - Ing blood of the then young John. Only narrow valleys , cut by gullies , in terrupt the continuous recurrence at the hills. A motor car which made the trip to the Wilson farm yesterday waa unable to climb the hills on the high speed. When engineers measured Johnson , county Into sections , divided by high ways , the old home of the Wilsons was left standing in the center of a section. ' The last lap to the house la through a cornfield which has been furrowed and planted with a lister. The house , built thirty-five yeara ago , a year after "Johnny" Wilson disappeared , is above the old dugout : which was the first home of tha judge and his wife when they emi grated to the west from Scotland. The same dugout from which the elder Wilson kicked his son and wished him In hell , now Is a celler , the refrigera tor of his nephew , James Klnnlburgh , who live in the old home. It Is a one-story structure , consplo uously plain , divided Into two rooms , both small. A coat of white paint , re cently applied , conceals the age of tha building. The worn , rotten boards on. the little east porch , however , appear to have been In place many yeara. The walls on the Inside , Instead of be ing plastered with hair and cement ; are covered with thin boards conceal ed by figured wall paper which haa faded In placoh. Round spots , appar ently stained by rain leaking through the old roof , appear at Intervals on the ceiling. A brick chimney , built ten years ago carries the smoke from the stoves of both rooms. A rag carpet hides the floors. James Klnnlburgh , his wife and sir children , live In the house. 'Jim , " the neighbors call him , is a farmer and will receive $10,000 If the mys terious questions cannot be answered by John Wilson. Duncan Klnnlburgh and Donald Black , also nephews of. Judge Wilson , were the only other claimants to the $30.000 estate before the return of the "lost heir. " They do not live near Teciimseh , so James Kln- nlburgh represents the opposition to the wandering son. Yet he has not come to town since Wilson's return , but has prepared to plow the corn on his farm and left the settling of the estate to Judge James Livingston , who will ask Wilson the mysterious ques tions.
