WILLS ‘MADE IN WAR TIME
Legal Procedure Must of Necessity i Give Way to What is Con- & venient. :
5 ¥ 2 ¥ 5 1 + War changes many of the laws of Ppeace. Even the strict laws governing. il_;e making of wills and the inherit ance of property have had to make way before the exizencies of milit'ary_% Jprocedure. . - ] : 1 f The German government has pro vided a special decree which rev_olu-' ftionizes the strict demands of the statutes of peace concerning the mak. Ang of wills. As a result the German soldiers in the field ean now make their last wills with' little respect: fot the ironclad requirements that hedge the making of a testament in time ol ‘peace. . , i * Any officer or soldier or even anyone in any wise attached to the mobile military service, may write his will in his own handwriting and sign it, even without the presence of witnesses and the will is binding. A specicl provi sion, however, makes such a will invalid one year after the demobilization of the force to which the testator is at tached. It becomes invaliq a year after the testafor his been discharged from such service. or if lie has been Fakexx prisoner by .the enemy, a year p.ftor he shall have been released. ‘- In addition to this, provision is ~made that where the soldier does not write the testament in his own hand writing, his simple signature in the presence of one officer or two other witnesses will be sufficient. If for any reason he is unable to do ‘this. or there is no time for the preparation pf a formal inzstrament, he may muake R verbal testament .before an officer and two witnesses. ,
FOUND TIMES HAD CHANGED
plkali lke's Attempt to ‘*Shoot Up” * Ban Diego Saloon Received with ‘ ' Marked Disapproval.
Alkali Ike. deputy sheriff {rom the desert, was a visitor in¢ the city, says f San Diezo, Cal., dispatch to the New York Sun. Alkali was looking tor the whit?e jligh'ts. Py . noon., having faited to discover the excitemoent lis soul craved, he made his way inte the U B. Grant hotel buffet, aud, puiling a “fortv-five”' that looked like one of the kaiser's howitzers, announced that he was going to do some “clean: ng” Gt o . As he swung his Krupp around the room ‘l‘mé,ds' dropped behind partitions, active men dodged into hooths and many -faces paled at visions ol pudden death. Commander. in Chief Billie Schuler tipped his cizar to & hi;‘:lger angle than usual and, backed by Irish,and Germans, advanced on “the bad man from the sand hills.” For an instant visions of carnage flashed bhefore his eves of the men who had sought refuge, but it auickly pas§ed, for Schuler annexed the canpon and threw Alkali Tke to the sidewalk. Half an hour later the. fireeater was back begging with tears gtreaming dowr his face for his weapon, o ' . “T'll be on my way to the sand hills In five minutes,” he promised as he got back his gun..

: ‘ John Muir, o * The late John Muir was one of these rare spirits who devote a large part of their lives to making men acquainted with the' beauties and won_dérs of nature. .Besides béing a giited writer. whose words have had a solid attraction for a fine and sympathetic type of minds, Mr. Muir was a praciical scientist—as a geologist and an explorer hé has contributed his ‘share 'to the world's intellectual regsources. The romance of his career gnd the mystery of that speciil gift which made glaciers a_particular obJect of his studies are matters. over :swhic-h the average man may \\jell pore with wondermerit. Tt is not easy for the person of affairs to under: ;'stan(l the irresistible ¢all which comes ‘to certain natures to make themselves Emas-ters of the secrets that lLe only ’half-hi‘dden in the physical world that ‘surrmmds us. But that some natures receive’ this call and respond to it nobly is the testimony of such a career as John Muir's.—Springfield RepubHean. it o :
Man Is Best After 60, “Investigation by keen men has shown that man’s best work has been ‘done between the ages of sixty and seventy years,” said President E.
