The Blasosyk will case, which has been
stubbornly fought In district court here
during tha last nine days, came to a close
last night, the Jury, after an honr's de
liberation, finding for the contestants on
the first ballot. During the two years ofJ
Its pendency the matter has aroused a
great deal of Interest, owing to the large
fortune at stake.
Mary Anna Blasczyk died two years ago.
I having reached the extreme old age of S3
years, and having outlived her entire
family, including her two sons, who were
i-ltisens and land owners In this county
i and whose property she had Inherited. The
value of her estate is now estimated at
HO.iVW. More than a year before her death
she had made a will bequeathing all this
property, except a minor bequest to the
church, to Mrs. Mlcharllne Povtowskl of
Farwell, who cared fur her during her de
clining years, and to her two sons, John
and Joseph PovlowskL However, a month
later she made a revocation of this will.
After her death the beneficiaries of the re
voked will filed It for probate, but protest
being made and the revocation produced by
parties who undertook to take up the pos
sible rights of relatives of the deceased,
the county court threw out the will. The
beneftrlarles of the will then appealed to
the riixtrli't court and the case came up in
court March 13 and was hard fought for
nine days, over thirty witnesses being
examined, with the result named. The
will was represented by Attorneys C. I
Hoover of South Omaha and Bell and
Templin of this city, the contestants by
F. J. Taylor of this city, W. H. Thompson
of Grand Island and German Vice Consul
S. L. Gelsthardt of Lincoln.
This solution of the ease gives the estate
to such relatives as may be found In the
deceased's native place In German Poaen.
Six of her seven brothers and slitters are
known to have died In the old country and
the seventh, named Andreas Florcxak, Is
thought to have gone to America in his

One of the finest fruit sections of Oregon if not the entire United
States will be brought into direct touch with the great fruit markets
of the world by the completion of the Grants Pasa and Rogue River
railroad, now being constructed through the marvelously rich Apple
pate and Williams valleys of Southern Oregon. These valleys are lo
cated in the famous Rogue River district.
Their soils are particularly adapted to the growing of Pears,
Peaches, Apples and other fruits, berries and small grains. The nu
merous mountain streams provide an abundance of pure water for irri
gation and all other purposes. However, most Rogue River fruit H
grown WITHOUT IRRIGATION, it having been proven that non-irrigated
fruit is in every way superior to that grown by irrigation.
99
"The New Garden of Eden
as this part of Oregon has justly been called, contains 7,000 acres of
this fine Pear land. It has been stated by both state and government
experts to be the "Largest Tract of Fine Pear Land" in the United
States. They have pronounced the eeil of these valleys, the climate,
, . and the elevation to be ideal for the raising of Pears. -In fact,-Rogue -River
Pears today command a higher price than pears from any other
section of the country, and but a very small part of the demand can be
supplied.
Ten acres of this fine land planted in Pears will bring you an in
come of $5,000 to $10,000 per year. This has been proven by men who
have become rich from the products of 20 and 25-acre tracts in these
valleys, and when they started they knew no more about fruit-raising
thanyou do. This land is sold in 10 to 320-acre tracts, part cash, bal
ance at 6 interest. At the present prices it is $75 to $300 per acre
cheaper than any fruit land of the same character in the United States.
Investigate at once. Call at our office and learn all about this land.

About four years ago the Omaha & Council Bluffs Street Railway
Company commenced the practice of cautioning its patrons and the
public, through the daily papers, against carelessness in getting on
and off cars, crossing tracks, etc., with a view to reducing accidents.
The result of this effort was so gratifying that other street rail
ways in other cities took up the plan and everywhere it met with suc
cess. -The company has become convinced, however, that to retain the
benefit that has resulted, it will be necessary to repeat the warnings
from time to time, and it has therefore prepared a series of short talks
of which one will appear in this paper each day commencing tomorrow
