REV. SAME
ADVISED HALL
TO GETMARRIED
'Marrying Parson" Gives
Testimony in Estate Con
test Case; Offered to
Help Him Find Wife.
Rev. C. V. Savidge testified yes
terday afternoon in Judge Leslie's
court in connection with the Ralph
If. Hall estate contest case.
Cs-.ot-.e'i "marrying parson" was
quizzed as to his knowledge, of
whether Hall was known as a bach
elor or a benedict.
"I recall that on September 12,
W, Mr. Hall drove me to the fun
eral of his friend, the late Dr. Har
vev Link, at Millard, where I con
ducted the services," the witness
testified. "Hall told be he was a
bachelor and I told him that he
had missed his opportunity by not
being married, ana I suggested that
he should cultivate me, as I believed
that I could help him. 'I can assist
you yet, I told him.
Hall was 70 years of age at that
time. He died in 1916 at the age of
80.
Overheard Conversation.
Mrs. Mary Grinnel testified that
she was one of the occupants of the
funeral carriage In which the min
ister and Hall rode. She stated that
she oerheard Hall tell Rev. Mr.
Savidge that he was a bachelor and
heard the minister tell Hall that he
.shouls. be ashamed for not having
married."
The principal issue involved in the
case is whether the domestic rela
tions of Hall and the late Mrs.
Nancy J. Pollock, during a period of
nearly J5 years, constituted a com
moririaw marriage.
Burt Hutchinson lived for many
years with Hall and Mrs. Pollock
and he was introduced as a witness
who had intimate knowledge of their
attairs. I he witness testified that
when he mentioned the subject of
formal marriage to Hall, the latter
replied that it was nobody's busi
ness how he lived.
Bora in Omaha.
. Mi's. Elizabeth Malmstean, who is
making a fight in Judge Leslie's
court for 4 share of the estate of
the late Ralph H. Hall, was born in
Omaha 30 years ago. Her mother
was an actress, well known on the
stage in years gone by
The baby of this former actress
was adopted by Miss Nancy Max
well, who later became the wife .of
the late Rev. Thomas H. Pollock,
l:nited Presbyterian minister, iden
tified with church affairs in Sarpy
county.
Mrs. Pollock lived fcr many years
fin the farm of Ralph H. Hall, near
Ralston, and in the case now being
heard the adopted daughter of Mrs.
Pollock is contending that her foster-mother
was the common-law
wife of Hall, and that she, Elizabeth
Malmstean, is entitled to a share of
a $200,000 estate. .
Guards Mother's Name. -,
Mrs. Malmstean's natural mother,
after leaving the stage, married a
prominent and wealthy matt and
they resided in Minneapolis for
years. Mrs. Malmstean is guarding
the identity of her mother t a mat
ter too sacred to reveal. Six years
ago she went to Minneapolis to visit
her mother.
During Friday morning's session
of the hearing Mrs. Clara Rader tes
tified that Mrs. Nancy Pollock fre
quently attended the United Pres
byterian church in South Omaha
and that she received a pension as
the widow of Rev. Mr. Pollock.
Mrs. Nancy W Noss testified that
Mrs. Pollock made herself known
on various occasions as the widow
of Rev. Mr. Pollock rather '.han the
wife of Ralph H. Hall.
Other witnesses have testified
that Mrs. Pollock an 1 'Mr. Hall
were generally understood to have
been commonlaw wife and husband.
Farm Involved.
The property in litigation includes
.160 acres of farm land near Ralston.
Mrs. Malmstean was an adopted
daughter of Mrs. Nancy J. Pollock
before the latter's common-law mar
riage to Hall. The defendants are
contending that Mrs. Pollock was
only a housekeeper in . the Hall
household.

CHAPTER XXVI.
Perkins came in after dinner, and
he welcomed the interruption with
a feeling of relief.
"Come in, come in, Perkins; here's
your cigar and it s a pretty good
one," he said, extending the box.
"Take a couple away for a good din
ner when you get home. Well, what's
your opinion of this little world of
ours?
The thin conductor selected the
cigars with an air of veneration.
pocketed two and bit a third, after
pinching the end, in order to save
the precious fraction.
"Thank you Mr. Forrester; that
will help a lot," he said, beaming
with the feeling of good humor
Forrester always communicated to
those who approached him. He
brought forward a' newspaper. "No
tice this?"
"No, what is it?"
"Picture of your missus."
Forrester took the paper, drawing
back and nodding gravely. Before
him was the exquisite profile of his
wife and underneath:
MRS. ANDREW B. FORRESTER
"Whose Versailles fete tonight
is an event of the season.
"Yes, she is extraordinarily pret
ty," he said to himself, examining it
critically. "Quite different from any
one else." A thrill of pride went
through him. "Is it possible that I
am still in love with her?" he asked
himself anxiously. "That I can still
be in love with her?"
"Quite a story about the ball, said
Perkins admiringly. Description ot
the costumes and all that. Guess
every one worth while will be there,
won't they?"
You seem auite interested, said
Forrester. He laid down the paper,
pushing it a little away from him.
This was a new side of Perkins
whose salary, whose struggles and
perplexities and hopes he knew, as
he liked to know the inner mechan
ism of all lives.
"My missus thinks a lot about
such things," Perkins said apologet
ically. "You see, knowing that I
know you, she's been specially in
terested in this. She says it's the
most elcgnat thing this year."
A fantastic idea came to Forrester.
What if he ' gave Mrs. Perkins a
chance to gaze upon this paradise of
her imagination? It could easily be
arranged all she would need to do
would be to help upstairs. But im
mediately, looking at Perkins, .he
said to himself angrily:
I must be crazy! Do him such an
injustice? Not by a long shot!"
Out loud he said:
"So Mrs. Perkins reads the, social
column, eh?"
Perkms nodded gloomily.
"She's daffv on it." He blew a
cloud of fragrant smoke and looked
at Forrester inquiringly. "Mr. For
rester, what's gotten into the women
folks these days?"
"Well, what do you think is
wrong?" he answered defensively,
startled at a question which came so
close to his own perplexities.
Search me. said Perkins scratch
ing his head. He started to continue
the subject, hesitated awkwardly,
and switched. "What kind of open
ings are there down in Mexico for
a fellow like myself?" '..
"For you, Perkins
"Yes. for me. I've been wanting
to make a shift," he said, looking at
the end of his cigar with the gravity
that one assumes with brass but
tons. He tugged at his chopped
whiskers. "Yes, Mr. Forrester, for
a long time." He looked up quickly,
deciding to plunge in. "You couldn't
use me, somewhere, could you Mr.
Forrester?
"Mexico's a long way off, he an-
Coprifht, 1918. by Little. Browa C.)
swered, studying him in surprise,
"and just at present it's no place for
women."
"I wasn't thinking of taking the
missus."
"Oh!" A silence rested between
them. "Trouble of some sort?" said
Forrester finally.
"Yes."
"Not in the family?"
Perkins began to play with the
brass buttons on his uniform, clear
ing his throat nervously.,
"Well, that's about it. "I want to
get away."
"Sorry to hear that," said For
rester, startled at the conjunction
of circumstances.
"Mr. Forrester, what's got into
the women folks these days?" the
conductor repeated all at once, and
Forrester, at a loss for an answer,
replied again:
''Well, what do you think's the
matter?"
"You can search me!" Perkins
said, staring out of the window. "It
was all right the first years, until I
got a couple of raises until we set
tled in the city. Mr. Forrester, I
think it's the dance craze's got a lot
to do with it. It noes turn their
heads, particularly, if they're young
and pretty." He stopped, opened a
pocketbook and brought out a pho
tograph. "Never showed you this
did I?" Quite smart looking girl,
isn t she:
"Verv." said Forrester, glancing
in wonder at Perkins' wife, who
might have walked out of his own
drawing room.
"Some style," said the conductor,
with a touch of pride.
Forrester nodded, pursed his lips
and handed back the photograph.
"You have to pay for what goes
on that back, Perkins."'
"Exactly that's the point." he
said slowly. "That's whert we dif
fer one of the points. You see I'm
thinking ahead there's a good way
to go still, and it takes a powerful
store of nuts."
"Saved anything?"
"Six hundred in the bank six
hundred, that's all," he said wearily.
He drew aside and nodded; then he
sat up with a jerk. '
"Only six hundred, at your age?
said Forrester, astonished. "Things
been going pretty badly then?"
"Pretty bad, sir, yes. Oh, there's
nothing wrong with Nellie. You un
derstand what I mean."
"I understand," said Forrester,
gazing out of the window.
"But her life and mine don't jibe.
It's society's turned her head all
these political picnicsjnd balls, the
movies, the friend with a car and
dancing every afternoon. I've tried
to get her out of it. But you can't
budge her from New York no sir;
not an inch! I'd a fine opening out
in St. Louis with my uncle, in a
wholesale grocery. But she wouldn't
go.
"Perkins, why don t you get a
divorce?" said Forrester abruptly.
Then he drew back and stared again
into the flitting hills, shocked at the
echoes of what he had himself pro
nounced. " '
"Well, you see, there's a couple
of kiddies,' Perkins said gently,
"and they're fond of her. So am I,
in a way. You saw what she looks
like. She's bright always full of
spirit. No; I wouldn't want to do
anything to hurt her. But someone's
got to think ahead and that's me.
I want to get away, Mr. Forrester,
or I'll be losing my grip."
Forrester straightened up, drew
out a memorandum pad and pencil.
"Write down your name and ad
dress." . ...
"You mean you'll find a place
for me?" '
"You bet I will!" he said emphat
ically. "You're a first-class, corking
man and 1 m going to. use you. Now
a few plain words. What's impor
tant her life or yours? Who s the
worker? Who's feeding the family?
lliese things are hard hard espe
cially coming to a decision. But
make your decision, stick to it and
you II feel like another man. She
wont follow you? Make her an al
lowance and get out. You come to
me tomorrow, when you've told her,
and 1 11 take care of you, Perkins-
and you won't lose by it either. Is
it a go?
He held out his nana, rerkins
took it slowly, swallowing hard.
"It's. a miracle, sir, that's what it
is no use trying to thank
"Don't. I guess I can understand."
When Perkins presently departed,
Forrester craned forward, arms on
the table, hands drawn under the
chin, held for hours in. his own
thoughts. Before he had felt isolat
ed by his own private unhappiness,
now, a certain kinship in misery de
scended on him and eased the ache
"Whatever happens, Andrew B.
Forrester's not going to be wrecked
either," he said stubbornly. "I've
gambled like a fool, I ve gotten in
beyond my depth. I've lived like a
spendthrift. Now enough she can
go her way and I'll go mine, but
her way isn't. going to sink the
ship!"
He was still in this belligerent
mood as the train plunged into the
long tunnel below Harlem. He rose
and went out on the platform. A
gigantic transformation was being
worked: an immense system was
growing around the shell of the old,
layers of tracks being built beneath
their roadbed, houses shored up,
caverns opened, new supports re
placing the crumbling rock, and all
this myriad activity going on night
and day without a single minute's
disturbance of the multitudes which
flowed in and out.
"By George, that is great," he
said in awe. He would have liked to
have lifted his hat in token of re
spect before the genius of his race,
which stopped before no impossi
bility. "If I had a son, I'd like him
to do big things like that."
But he had no son. He was alone.
In the station, that great under
ground sky-scraper, where crowds
swarmed up from delving stories,
the same joyful reverence seized
him. It was all so immense, on a
scale so much bigger than any hu
man consideration. It was like a
great purposeful tempest -washing
away little uglinesses.
"This is America!" he said to him
self, at the sight of world-crowds
that rushed about him. The electric
ity' of the moment, the swaying to
ward the future, the regeneration
of the old, tired strain, with the joy
of great horizons, held him in its
grip. A throng of emigrants went
past,"' from southeastern Europe,
huddled together, gaping, ticketed
for the west. "Out of these staring
oxen," he thought, "a master of men
may come. By George, this is Amer
ical" He stood a moment, a long mo
ment, breasting the human flood,
a growing light in his eyes.
"Good Lord, what does my pri
vate grief amount to' before this?"
he said 4o himseit. i ve married,
not as I thought I did, as a free
agent, but because nature, I sup
pose, sent me blindly out to seek a
mate. Whether I'm happy or un
happy, what does it matter? This
is what counts. Big days and it's
good to- live in them. This is my
life my man's life my part in the
fight!"

Property Owners Protest
v ' Against Reynolds Bill
Improvement clubs and individ
ual property owners are planning to
enter vigorous protests against the
passage of H. R. 434 at Lincoln,
a bill by Reynolds of Douglas to
abridge the rights of property own
ers in the matter of grading proceedings.
It is proposed by the terms ot this
hill to take away the righ of pe
tition from the property owners and
to substitute a plan whereby the
city council may order these im
provements, subject to a majority
protest from property owners if
such protest shall have been filed
with the city clerk within three
days after date of action by the
cit council.
The present plan is to consider the
mprovement when property owners
file 'a majority petition.
Protestants against the bill will
ask that property owners be allow
ed 60 days in which to file a major
ity piotest in cases where the pro
posed grading is not desired.

Comenius school has just com

children were given a blue ribbon

she rented without cost to these
pupils, putting them on in the
morning and removing them when
the pupils went home in the after
noon. By this means a number se

have been in the running otherwise.
A little colored girl appeared for
inspection with her face covered

The school is now marked up
