Noted Caldwell Case Again To the Front in Benton Co.

Fowler Review. The time of the court was again occupied with consideration of the Caldwell case Monday and more of the interested parties were on hand than at any time since the motion for a new trial was argued. Monday was the day on which J. L. Dinwiddle had been ordered to’ pay into the custody of. the clerk the money remaining in his hands as executor of the estate of Mrs. Caldwell. Counsel for Mr. Dinwiddle filed a written statement setting forth reasons why they thought the money should not be paid at this time Judge Berry was adamant in his ruling, however, but the time of payment was extended ten days, < The question of Administrator Shipman’s petition to sell personal property was argued from every conceivable standpoint and finally went to trial to determine the property rights of the W. B. Fowler and Jennie E. Caldwell estates. The case went over until next Monday as the time of the court was otherwise occupied the rest of the week. s It is contended that the personal property was held jointly by W. B. Fowler and Mrs. Caldwell. Numerous witnesses were called and it was shown that the house was already furnished when Mr. and Mrs. Caldwell came from Chicago to Earl -Park. Improvements and additional furnishings were added later. It was also shown that the Richland account at the bank was a common fund against which all members of the family and W. C. Compton, foreman, drew checks. James R.Barr testified that the receipts from the sale of grain was Ipaced to the credit of the Richland account on the elevator books and the grain company took care of the checking account at the bank. Cashier John Bond said this account was nearly always overdrawn anywhere from a few dollars to a couple of thousand. The time was too short to complete the case and it will be resumed next Monday.

Pennsylvania Railroad Gives Local Names to Cars.

Kentland Enterprise. The Pennsylvania railroad company recently put into service two of the latest model palace ears, of* steel construction, and the acme of the car builders’ art. Emblazoned on the sides of the cars in rich gold are the names “Kentland” and “Goodland,” in honor of this and our neighboring town. They are used in the’ magnificeilt eighteenhour limited that runs between Chicago and New York. Naming ears after towns that line their route is not a bad idea. It could at least be taken as an expression of appreciation by the company for the support given by the towns, and the names would carry far more meaning than some of those that are used, though perhaps, less high sounding and euphonious;
