imTMT HANCOCK GO. CASE REVERSED

Appellate Court Holds in Favor of Mrs. Emma Fort in Contest of Father's Will.

The suit brought several months ago in the Hancock Circuit Court by Emma Fort to set aside the probate of the will of her father, the late William G. Scott. The persons named as defendants in the case were Stephen G. White,' Mary Alice White and Nancy M. Scott.

The case came up for trial in the Hancock Circuit Court under Judge Robert L. Mason. The finding was against the plaintiff and she appealed the case. The Indiana Appellate Court reversed the case, holding that the lower court erred in sustaining a demurrer to the plaintiff's complaint. That where there was an agreement not to probate the will until the plaintiff had time to think about it, and let them know, and immediately thereafter, a witness to the will was called by telephone and the will probated after 6 o'clock in the evening. The complaint of plaintiff setting up such fact stated sufficient cause of action and that a demurrer should have been overruled.

SHUBERT MURAT

Returning to the Shubert-Murat theater Monday night, March 10th, for an engagement of three nights and Wednesday matinee, comes Lew Fields' All Star Company, presenting that most nonsensical of all nonsensities, "Hanky Panky," direct from 150 nights of sensational business at the Broadway theater, New York, where it played to capacity business and enjoyed an exceptional vogue.

The same stars as last seen here are still to be seen with the organization: Max Rogers, the surviving member of Rogers Brothers "Bobby"' North, Harry Cooper, Hugh Cameron, Clay Smith, Christine Nielson, Myrtle Gilbert, Virginia Evans, Flo May, and not overlooking William Montgomery and Florence Moore.

A sequelized "Get rich-quick-Wallingl'ord" is the background for the travesty, and the escapades ot the celebrated con man are humorously depicted, as he is now added to the British peerage with the t'tle of Sir J. Rufus, while Black ie Daw, instead of being his accomplice, as formerly, is now his foe. Cleopatra, a resurrected Egyptian mummy, appears concurrently with these present day characters, and during the evening the gamut of hilarity is run.

The second act shows the campus of John D. Rockefeller's University of Chicago, with the famous "Yale Fence" interposed for comedy purposes, and finally Mrs. Wallingford's lodge at Chicago, showing a gorgeous Lawn Fete, with myriads of lights and colors in bewildering beauty. The chorus consists of fifty typical Broadway charmers, proclaimed by the New York critics "the most sirenic aggregation of young women who ever leveled their smiles across one row of footlights.

The book, lyrics and music are by Edgar Smith, E. Ray Goetz and A. Baldwin Sloane, respectively.

The prices for this engagement will be as^ follows: Lower floor, $1.50, $1.00 and 75 cents balcony, $1, 75 cents and 50 cents. The reserved seat sale opens Thursday, March 6.

Real Estate Transfers.

Marshall Jeffries et al. to Frank A. Roudebush, 40 acres land, $5,500. Luretta Anderson et al. to Mary B. Jones. Land, $150.

Bad Roads.

The rural route mail carriers are not able to make the round of their routes as quickly now as when the roads are good. They are lucky now if they get in by 2 o'clock in the afternoon. John Harlan, of R. 5, says that he never saw the Pendleton pike in as bad shape as it is now.

A Message to Railroad Men E. S. Bacon, 11 Bast St., Bath, Me., sends out this warning to railroaders everywhere. "My work as conductor caused a chronic inflammation of the kidneys, and I was miserable and all played out. From the day I began taking Foley Kidney Pills I began to -regain my strength, and am hotter now than' have tjpen.for tvy^ty years." Try them. M. C. Quigley.

In the Hancock Circuit Court, February Term, 1913. In the Matter of the Petition for a Drain by Orlando M. Eastes, et al.

No. 12653. Notice of Filing and Docketing Petition.

To William E. Inlow: You are hereby notified that we, the undersigned, have filed in the office of the Clerk of the Hancock Circuit Court of said Hancock County, a petition asking for the construction of a certain ditch, being in the townships of Buck Creek and Sugar Creek, in the county and State aforesaid, and located and described as follows, to-wit:

Commencing in the southwest quarter of the northwest quarter of section thirty-three (33), township sixteen (16) north, range six (6) east, at a point about forty (40) rods west and forty (40) rods north of the southeast earner of said southwest quarter of said northwest quarter of said section thirtythree (33) thence in a southeasterly direction to the said southeast corner of said southwest quarter of said northwest quarter of said section thirty-three (33) thence along the south line of the east half of the northwest quarter of said section thirty-three (33) for a distance of about forty (40) rods thence south and eastward across the east half of the southwest quarter of said section thirty-three (33) for a distance of about one hundred fifty (150 rods to a point on the public highway dividing said section thirty-three (33) into an east and west half about thirty (30) rods north of the southeast corner of the southwest quarter of said section thirty-three (33) thence across' said highway and in an easterly direction for a distance of about forty (40) rods thence in a southerly direction for a distance of about forty (40) rods crossing the highway upon the boundary line between the townships of Buck Creek and Sugar Creek at a point about sixty (60) rods east of the southwest corner of the southeast quarter of said section thirty-three (33) thence in a southeasterly direction for a distance of about fifteen (15) rods, crossing the highway running north and south in Sugar Creek Township between the National Road and the north line of section four (4) in Township fifteen (15) north, range six (6) east thence east a distance of about five (5) rods and emptying into a natural water course.

Said proposed drain following as nearly as practicable the course of an open ditch along the route above described from the point above described as the mouth of said ditch, where the same ends in a natural water course, to the point wtiere the said ditch as above described crosses the highway which divides section thirty-three (33) township (16) north, range six (6) east, into an east and west half. Said petition alleges that from said point last described, along the course

vof

the

proposed drain as above described to the point of beginning of said proposed drain, as above described, there is now a covered tile ditch that said tile are too small for the drainage of the land above described and that the drainage of said lands by the aforesaid private tile ditch is wholly inadequate and insufficient that said tile are not properly laid and do not have a proper grade for the efficient drainage of any of the lands above described.

That said tile should be taken up and tile of proper size and dimensions should be laid along the course as above described, using said old tile, as far as may be practicable, in the construction of the drain herein proposed.

That said petitioners believe that said proposed drain can be accomplished in the best and cheapest manner by the construction of a ditch of sufficient depth to drain successfully all of the above described real estate and public highways, and by laying tile of sufficient size and dimensions therein, and by covering the same, and by using the old tile in a portion of said ditch as hereinbefore set out.

Said petition alleges that real estate owned by you and described' in said petition, will be affected by said proposed drainage.

You are hereby notified that said petition will be docketed for hearing on the 12th day of April, 1913.
