LEGAL TANGLE OVER A WILL
Changes In Document Lead to Liti
gation Between Broth
ers. (From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, June 12-(8pecial.) The
supreme court today decided a case that
has no parallel In the courts of the state.
According to the decision a father suing to
have a codicil to a will set aside may ex
empt his own son, who is made a benefici
ary by the codicil, but Include his brothers
and sisters who are also beneficiaries. The
case came from Scott county. Mrs. Maria
IS u sue, a widow, made a will giving her
property to her four children. In April,
19i2, she made a codicil deducting 31,000
from the share of Carl Busse and dividing
that amount letween the other three chil
dren. In September of the same year she
executed another codicil giving $1,000 of
Carl's share to his son and deducting $2,500
Instead of $1,000. The suit was decided for
the plaintiff and a new trial was secured
because the son, Carl Busse, Jr., was not
made a defendant to the suit and In the
rehearing the defendants won. The su
preme court reverses this and remands for
a new trial holding that no new trial should
have been granted In the first cose, as It
was of no concern to the three brothers and
sisters whether the plaintiff's son was a
defendant In the suit or not.
The case of the state against Peter D.
Burke, from Pottawattamie county was
affirmed todny by the supreme court. The
case was submitted on the transcript only
without argument. Burke was Indicted for
assault with Intent to commit murder and
convicted of assault with Intent to commit
manslaughter.
The biennial election law case on a peti
tion for a rehearing was advanced on the
docket and submitted to tbe'supreme court
today. There were no oral arguments.
Two cases ubder the new drainage law,
the first to be submitted, were also ad
vanced and submitted to the supreme court
today. This will make It possible to secure
decisions by the next term of court. One
Is the Wright county case and the other the
Buena Vista case.
Des Moines is on the ragged edge be
tween being a city of the first or second
class In the regulations of the Postofflce
department. The assessor returned 74,88
names and the secretary of the executive
council thinks there will be at least 76,000
and likely 76,000. If the population is over
76,000 It makes Des Moines a city of the
first class, which gives It additional ad
vantages and the business men are show
ing considerable interest In the matter.
The directors of the state fair have
closed a contract for a new Grand avenue
entrance gate to the grounds and for a
band balcony to the agricultural building.
Ole O. Roe, In charge of Insurance mat
ters at the office of the state auditor, leaves
tomorrow for Pittsburg for a nine days'
stay as a delegate In attendance at the
national synod of the Lutheran church,
In one of the tents of the Holiness camp
meeting Sunday was performed the wed
ding of Miss Mattle Barnes of Nevada,
la., and Thomas Moore of Texas. It was
the culmination of a romance which had
its beginning In the cool Bhades of the
Chautauqua grove where the National Holi
ness association annually holds Its camp
meeting. It was here that the two hearts
beating as one In a religious cause first
met.. After the meetings tiny will return
to ' Texas, where they will make their
home.
Rev. A. B. Morrison of Columbus, O
one of the leading men nt the camp meet
ing of the National Holiness association
last night said: .
The church fair is down on the level
with the bar room; perhaps not quite so
bod. John D. Rockefeller Is a thief, and
r-resinent Harper or the Chicago unlver
slty Is not much better. When a student
goes to Chicago university he begins to
mse nis religion. By tne time ne is mere
three years he is ready to renounce his
uoa.
He also said some caustic things about
low-necked dresses and short sleeves.
At the meeting of the city council this
morning a resolution was passed asking
that the directors of the state fair hold no
evening entertainments this year. Alder
man Van Dyck. who Introduced the reso
lutlon, argued that the fair owed it to the
city to allow the crowds to remain In the
cfty during the evenings.
The Jury In the DuBols case remained out
two nights and two days and was dls
charged Sunday afternoon at t o'clock
with eleven In favor of the Denver widow
and one In favor of the New Orleans
widow. DuBols was a wealthy contractor
and when he died It was found he had
married three women. The Denver woman
was his real wife. The other two filed
claims against the estate for money
loaned. The case If tried over will eat up
several hundred dollars more of the estate.
Whether Extra or Regular Session
Is Called Investigators Will
Be Called to Meet
Before It.
"I hope we can formulate a report that
will be satisfactory to and In keeping with
the views and policies of President Roose
velt, and I think the other members of the
Lcommlttee feel the same way," said Sen
ator Millard In speaking of the work of the
senate railroad committee on the rate regu
lation Investigation.
Asked If the committee had come to any
conclusion or made any report Senator Mil
lard said:
"No, I received a letter the other day
from Senator Elklns, chairman of the com
njlttee, and he told me the committee had
adjourned subject to the call of the presi
dent. Of course It Is the general under
standing that congress will convene In
extra session In the fall. But whether It
does or does not we expect, that Is the com
mittee, expects to reassemble before the
next session of congress. And we also ex
pect at that session to arrive at some con
clusion. Senator Millard then reviewed the ses
sions and deliberations of the committee,
naming the various railroad men who
gave testimony. He said the evidence had
been adduced In the fairest manner possi
ble and that the committee would give It
the best consideration possible.
It would be Impossible for me to suy
what the probable action of the commit
tee will be, for I left Washington some
three weeks before the committee's ses
sions closed. You know, I was confined
to my bed and when able to get up was
cot able to attend the meetings. I feel
certain the majority of the committee
wishes to coincide with the views of the
president In this matter, but if we do not
arrive at such a conclusion of course there
will be further deliberations, the result of
which cannot now be predicted. If we do
agree on a report that will be In harmony
with President Roosevolt's views, of
course, that will probably put an end to
matters."

IHOMAS A. EDISON, the in
ventor, in mapping out the
Cblems of th future, five
t place to the necessity of
fighting th bacteria whlcli
give us our disease. Next
to the actual bacteria of dis
ease, the mosaulto and flic
are the most daagerons enemies of man.
The mosquito with its bite injects into our
veins malaria, yellow fever, and other fatal
troubles. The fly, with spongy feet, collects
th invisible germ of diseases, spread
them over our food and poison u with
typhoid, cholera and other plagues of the
human race.
Dr. Pierce, the eminent physician of Buf
falo, N. Y., says, If each person will con
sider his system as an army of men which
he controls as a general, ana will e to its
proper provisioning and that it has plenty
of ammunition in the shape of good red
blood, he will be able to overcome the
enemy in these germ of disease." Every
healthy man has five million red blood
corpuscles to every square millimeter of
blood. The beet tonic for increasing the red
blood corpuscles and building up healthy
tissue is no doubt Dr. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery. This medicine has been on
the market for over a third of a century
and numbers its cures by the thouaand.
Many popular patent medicines or tonic
are made up laigrlv of alcohol and will
shrink the corpuscle of the blood and
make them weaker for resitttanc. Wlmt
is needed is an alterative extract, like In
Pierce' Golden Medical Discovery, midu
of roots and herbs, without the use of alco
hol, that will assist the stomach in assimi
lating or taking from the food such ele
ments ss are required for the blood, also an
alterative that will assist the activity of th
liver and cause it to throw off th poison
in the blood. When we have accomplished
this we have put the system in a fortified
condition so strong that it cau repel th
germs of disease which we find every
wherein the street-cars, the shops, th
factories, the bedrooms, wherever many
people congregate, or where sunlight and
good air do not peuetrute.
Accept no substitute for "Golden Medical
Discovery," There is notbiug "Just a
good" for disease of the stomach, blood
nd longs
Neglected constipation means headache,
heart-burn, sour stomach, foul taste in the

First Ward Councilman Bay " Will
Not Block Any "treet
Paving.
Councilman Back, chairman of the com
mittee on paving and sewerage, denies em
phatically that he ever said If he could pre
vent It no paving would be done under the
1906 specifications.
"I never made any such statement," say
Councilman Back. "Personally I think the
one-Inch asphalt topping Is too thin and
the wearing surface should lie thicker, but
I do not propose to be an obstructionist for
this reason. My policy Is to give the peoplo
what they want. The property owners will
have opportunity to study the published
prices on various kinds of paving, familiar
ise themselves with the specifications and
decide what they want. As chairman of
the committee I shall act strictly In accord
ance with their expressed . wishes, and If
anyone Is looking to me to delay the game
that person Is bnrily mistaken. Omaha
wants and needs lots of paving and I am
not going to stand In the way."
In the city engineering department the
one-Inch surface Is defended on the ground
that the one-Inch binder beneath it Is to be
an asphnltlc mixture on five Inches of Tort-
land cement base, thus making in reality
two Inches of asphalt surface. The binder
has small rock In Its composition somewhat
similar to the bltullthlc pavements.
City Engineer Rosewater and Assistant
City Engineer Craig are adhering to a
policy of strict silence regarding criticisms
of the specifications. They say they do not
propose to be drugged Into any such unsat
isfactory and Interminable wrangle as that
of last year and the year before It.
