VALUABLE PROPERTY A WRECK.

Heirs Who Are Deadly Enemies Have Refused to Sell Their Interests. Twenty years ago Benjamin Kelly, a capitalist, came from Boston nnd took up bis residence nt Dublin. He brought with hint his second wife. He built himself one of tlie finest residences in Eastern Indiana. Kelly's wife died and he married a third wife. At Kelly's death he made a will in which he left his handsome residence to his only heirs, his third wife and a daughter by the first wife. The former received the north half of the house and the south half of the lot, while the wife received the south half of the house and the nfirth hnlt of the lot. The heirs are enemies, and the house is not used by them. Each refused to sell her share in the property, and it now stands a wreck. Superstitious people say it is haunted.
