Accident Sunday Afternoon Near

Mingle was driving, and when he attempted t» follow a curve in the road he lost control of the machine, which went over a small embankment, landing with the wheels in the air. Mrs. Mingle and Mi-, and Mrs. Huber were thrown out of the machine, but Mingle could not get clear. The glass wind shield was shattered and his left leg was lacerated by the glass. Every nerve, artery and muscle was severed. He had almost bled to death when Dr. Samuel McGaughey happened to pass, took Mr. Mingle to his office and dressed his wounds. Dr. McGaughey insisted that he go to a hospital, but Mingle asked to be taken home. Dr. McGaughey had the automobile repaired and drove him to Ingalls. It was Huber's first ride in an auto and he refused to take a second risk. He and the women returned to Ingalls on an interurban car.

THE FINGERS THREE MEALS

Woman Defendant in Divorce Trial

Was Not Flirting When She Held

Up Her Hands.

One of the oiliest divorce trials that has entertained visitors and lawyers in the circuit court for many a dayj was heard Friday. It was the suit by David Harry of Shirley

In the cross examination the attorney for the defendant asked the witness if she knew she was flirting, and if on the contrary he did not know that the train men were her boarders and that instead of flirting she was simply asking by signs how many meals to fix, and if "two fingers did not mean two meals, three fingers three meals and so on/' The witness said he knew no such thing.

The ladies who testified were neighbors of the plaintiff and said they had seen men go to the house and that they remained some times over an hour, but they declared they were not watching.

SING TH|S MORTIU

Annual Concert Will Be Held at Mor-

ristown on the Fourth Sunday

in May.

The Diapason singing will be held at Morristown the fourth Sunday in this month. The Diapason succeeded the Missouri Harmony as the text book in singing in this community and particulary about Morristown, and the members of the Diapason class there have in turn succeeded the Missouri Harmony class in the annual singings at that place that have been given for the last thirty years. The survivors of the old class can now be numbered on the fingers of one hand, among this very few being Lemuel Hackleman of this county, and Mrs. Phoebe Cotton of Manilla.

That the singings might be continued the Diapason singers organized two years ago to perpetuate the organization and turn it over in time to their successors. It is probably unfair to term these meetings an "old singing" because most of the members are yet little beyond middle life. The class invites all singers of the Diapason songs, no matter where they reside to join them in the old time songs

TO SET ASIDE THE EUHN WILL

against Addie O. Harry. There were tors, Glencove Cemetery, of Knightsseveral witnesses, most of them ladies town, Grace H. McKown, Daniel from Shirley." The evidence of plain-1 Bohn, Guy Rudicil, Daisy Farias, tiff was to the effect that Mrs. Harry conducted a boarding house in Shirley and that she was in the habit of having a number of gentleman boarders. The plaintiff testified that he had seen men visit the house who were not boarders and that she flirted with trainmen. He testified that she declared she was young yet and expected to have a good time and if he did not like the way she done to gej up and away from it.

Only Sister of Deceased Brings Suit

and Demands One Half of Estate

of About $20,000.

Mrs. Amanda Fariss.of Sheridan, has brought suit in the circuit court to set aside the will of Philip J. Bohn. The defendants are Daniel Bohn and Robert S. N. Oldham, as excu-

Edith Fariss, Methodist Episcopal church of Charlottesville, Indiana, Bradley Methodist Episcopal church of Greenfield, Indiana, William R. McKown. Philip J. Bohn died in June, 1909, leaving Mrs. Fariss and Daniel Bohn sister and brother as his only heirs at law.

The complaint says 'That on the 21st day of June, 1909, a certain paper purporting to be the last will and testament of Philip J. Bohn, bearing date of March 16, 1909, was presented to and admitted to probate by the the clerk of the Hancock circuit court and filed and recorded in the record of wills, and letters were thereupon issued to the defendants, Daniel Bohn and Robert S. N. Oldham, as executors of said pretended will, who thereupon qualified and haye ever since and are now acting as such: that by the terms of said will the defendants are named as legatees and given the whole of the property to value of $20,000. to the entire exclusion of the plaintiff, Who is entitled, as heir of Philip J. Bohn, deceased, to an undivided one half interest thereof, that said pretended will is invalid for the following reasons: That said Phill|r J. Bohn as the time the will was executed was of unsound mind that said pretended will was unduly executed. Wherefore, the plaintiff prays the court that said pretended will be declared invalid and that the probate thereof be set aside."

Philip J. Bohn was an old resident of this city and county who at the time of bis death made his home with W. R. McKown in this city. He had .- no children and his wife died a few years prior to his death. He had given to the Bradley M. E. church his residence property, the church to pay a rental during his life and a' death to become the owner. I dition the church was given the of his estate in the will his sister to set aside.
