Dumont, eoond Time WUI Is Set, Aside The will of Mrs. Katherlne Meeshen has been set aside a second time by Judge Leslie as not a proper legal instrument Mrs. Meeshen left a paper disposing of her prop erty, amounting toVboirt $1,000. but it was signed only by the attorney. The law re quires two witnesses. The. will gives the property to her husband to be divided among her sisters and her sons after death. The will was offered once before, but refused probate and the second effort was made on the theory that the will was legal as an oral disposition. Judge Leslie, however, held that It was entirely Invalid and this leaves the property to the- husband and children with nothing for the slaters. SCRAMBLE TO DRIVE TAFT Auto Dealeri and Governors Vie for the Big Honor. FLUM GOES TO MILLARD'S CAS Ftrsiff Irutor and . H. Pickens .a President ef Ak-Sar-Ben Gov. ernore Will Ride with flic President. Automobile dealers are engaging in all sorts of wire pulling fur the honor of having one of their machines carry Presi dent Taft on the occasion of his visit to Omaha. This has put the Ak-Par-Ben board of governors In a quandry, as nearly every member of the board has a machine of his own and would himself Ilk the honor of carrying the president. Printed Instructions have been sent out by Secretary Carpenter for the president concerning the various trips the president will make and these instructions must be followed. These pertain to sufficient guards at all points to keep the crowds back. One of the Instructions Is that four horses must not be hitched to the presi dent's csrrlage, but this will not bother the board of governors, as it is arranged to use automobiles. The arrangements for the drive are now practically up to C. H. Pickens, president of the board of governors of Ak-Sar-Ben. The instructions said that but two local men should ride In the first automobile with the president and that no local men would be In the second automobile. In the automobile following will be two local men to each car. Arrangements had been made to use the large limousine car owned by J. J. Derlght, but word has been reoHved thst the president desires a car with the top down, rain or shine. The probabilities ar that the big Peerless touring ear owne by J. H. Millard wllO be used for the president and that Mr. Millard, as former United States senator, and C. H. Pickens, president of the hosts, will ride with the president. No Amatewr Driver for Taft. ' The Instructions also are that an expert and not an owner drive the president's car. Iu the following cars to show the points of Interest Will be members of the board of governors. This spring there was quite a contest among the automobile dealers for the honor of driving Mr. Taft and Ouy Smith with his Franklin took him to Fort Omaha and O. C. Redlck in a Packard took him to Fori Crook. A year ago when Mr. Taft spoke here O. W. Wattles was using his oar to drive to the various stopping places. A stop was made for lunch at the Omaha club, after which Mr. Taft was to speak at a theater. When the party came from the club Mr. Wattles could not find his chauffeur and It was sfterward discovered that the driver was asleep. Mr. Wattles too the wheel himself. Automobile dealers will be asked to place extra ears at the disposal of the board of governors to accompany the president on his sixteen-mile drive to the various parts of Omaha, these cars to be in readiness In case of accident What!

"Whit Is It that stands on one leg in the water, I punas us nest in cnimneys and barks like V a dog?" None could guess. The answer was: "A stork." One of the party objected, saying, "My goodness, a stork doesn't bark like a dog." The gentleman replied: "I know It, but I put that to it to make it harder." The stork illustration In the Central Mercantile company's advertisement on Page 4 is not a conundrum. It represents Just what Is Intended to be conveyed to the public.

Lyck is Granted Saloon License Hearing- at Benson More Peaceful Than on the Preceding Night. The crowd of dtlsens who gathered In the city hall at Benson last evening to lis ten to the hearing on the application of Chris Lyck for a saloon license, and ex pecting a repetition of the clash between Elmer Thomas and Bernard Post, or some thing more interesting than that affair of Wednesday night, were disappointed. At its conclusion the license was granted. The hearing was a peaceful one, although Elmer Thomas had one occasion in which he criticised the mayor and council for not maintaining better order in the court room. ' This happened when Bernard Post was ailed to the witness stand. When Mr. Pest walked to the chair several of the Spectators applauded. Mr. Thomas grew red in the face, rose up, and said l "The people in tbs court room seem to nave the wrong view of this trial. They appear to take it as a Joke. I think It is ths duty of the mayor and council to keep order here, and I believe the spectators ought t be told to keep stilt." Mayor Tracy then ordered (he constable to put out of the room anybody who created a disturbance of any sort.' The hearing of evidence dragged along for several hours. After ths hearing had been on for three hours. CUjrk Btlger In formed the court that he was 111 and couM not take any mors of the testimony. For an hour ths attorneys debated the question bf adjourning 'and then finally accepted another clerk and resumed the hearing. DETENTION HOME, MAIN BUILDING. if -. few weeks more the family ot boys and atria th.l llm at the Douglas County Detention home will move Into tha new quarters at Fourth and Ban croft streets, where the county DETENTION HOME, HOSPITAL. ounilsloners have fitted up a fine house and a hospital on the blufta overlooking the river. The Detention home has grown with the work of the Juvenile court and Is a neces sary part of It. When a child flnda his way Into the Juvenile court, either because of delinquency or parental neglect, there must be mime place to put him betide the reform acliools. Ideally bad boys can be sent to Kearney and Incorrigible girls to Cenevs, but there are dosens. In fact, most of the children who come before the Judge are not at all fit subjects for a reform school. The court must have some Sort of a comfortable home to keep them in while their trials are pending or while bet ter homes are being found for them. The family, which now numbers about thirty, is constantly changing as new ones come in and others are adopted or taken Into good homes. The Juvenile court movement was started In Omaha about three years ago and the lietention home was founded at the same time. Mrs. Draper Smith, Mrs. Arthur Brandela and Mrs. Rome Millet were moet active In advancing Its cause. A group of buildings at Tenth and Dor cas streets was rented and Mrs. Harriet M. Heller put In charge of the home. Mra. Heller has held this position ever since. One year ago when Fred Brunntng was chairman of ths county board committer. It was planned to get a new building. At Fourth and Bancroft a large brick struc ture and twenty-four acres of land were purchased for 116.500. Improvements were begun immediately that will amount to 27.1)00. The old building was renovated and made larger, an engine room was added and a hospital. The largest build ing and the hospital are shown In the pictures. The new quarters will house 100. There are already gardens on the grounds at which the children have been working all summer. The work was begun under Mr. Brun nlng's chairmanship, from blm the di rection went to the late M. J. Kennard. after his death it was taken up by P. J. Tralnor and now the new member of the board, John Grant, has It In charge. The children are well treated at the home, so well treated In fact, that some of them would rather be there than in homes where food and dotting Is scarce and sordldness sll too plentiful. Many mothers have eomplalnrd bitterly to the Juvenile Judges that their children like the Detention home better than their own homea. A school Is run for the youngsters who, for defects or natural nilschtevou neea, can nut be allowed In the public schools and they are In the bands of competent teach. srs. Mrs. Heller and her asetstante are new buying the furnishings for the new "boost and expect to move Into It about Septem ber 20.
