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

Is It that stands on one leg in the water, I

was: "A stork." One of the party objected,

"I know It, but I put that to it to make
it harder."
The stork illustration In the Central

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.

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
