IS LOOKING FOR HIS WIFE

IS MYSTERIOUSLY MISSING

John L. Von Blair comes to this City to Find that His Wife Has Gone to Some Unknown Place Looks for Her at Cincinnati.

According to the Cincinnati Enquirer, John L. Von Blair, of Connersville, has been in that city trying to find trace of his wife, Flossie Von Blair, who is alleged to have mysteriously left Richmond about ten days ago. Mrs. Von Blair was employed here in the Brunswick 'hotel and her husband was preparing, to move his household goods from Connersville. On the night of November 3,he returned to Richmond to find that his wife had left her position, without informing anybody of her purpose. Since then she has not been heard from and Von Blair is scourinig the country in search of her. Mr. Von Blair's mother came here from Connersville yesterday and was at Moore's boarding house on North 7th street for a short time. While there she said that her son feared that his wife had met with some accident

or had taken her life. Mrs. Von

Blair said that she did not have

Miss La Verna May Beard, a young woman of Union County, bas taken legal steps in the' Wayne Circuit court in an effort to be admitted to Earlham college under the provisions of the will of the late Zachariah Stanley, blood relative of the plaintiff. The action is unusual and brings to light the provisions of a peculiar will. Zachariah Stanley, who was a resident of

Union county, was a philanthropist

and upon his death, five years ago this month, it was found that he had beaueatlied to Earlham College 240

acres of farming land in Delaware

county under certain provisions. , The land was to be sold and the income from the proceeds thus realized, was to be used toward defraying the expenses of the education of young men and women who were of blood relation to the decedent. The provisions of the will have been faithfully carried out by the Earlham college board, but according to fhe complaint which Miss Beard files, the board has misinterpreted the provision which says that preference shall be given to those relatives who bear the name of Stanley. Five relatives made application to enter Earlham this year under the terms of the will. Miss Beard was one, but because of the fact that the other four are named Stanley, they shared first in this year's income from the bequest.. Miss Beard avers that when the expenses of the other four relatives are paid the balance will not be sufficient to give her any benefit. She avers further that she is of nearer blood to the decedent than three of the four persons who are reaping the benefits of the will's provisions and contends that a wrong interpretation has been placed upon the will; that it meant to favor applicants bearing the, family name of Stanley only when others not bearing the name were not of such near blood, but that in instances like her own case, the nearest relative, even though. not bearing the family name, should be given preference oyer the others.

Use artificial gas forwght and heat Hf

mond, represent Irvin in his action. The defendants are represented by John F. Robbins, of Richmond and John Dodson, of Cambridge City. When the case was called yesterday morning before Judge Fox and a jury, it was a creed that the services of a

court reporter would be dispensed j

with because of the enforced absence of A. A. Curme, official stenographer, and this agreement meant that neither side can make an appeal to the higher court from the judgement rendered by the jury. There were many

tnesses present and every indica

tion that there was to be great inter

est in the case which has its peculiar features because of the contention that will naturally arise over the merits or demerits of the so-called madstones. Albert Kendall, of New Castle, son-in-law of the aged Mr. Bundy, the owner of the mad-stone, was on the witness stand for a considerable time and he went into a .detailed description of the precious wonder as well as elaborating upon the cures it has performed. Mr. Kendall said that the mad-stone had been in the possession of the Bundy family for a long period and had been handed down from one generation to another. The present Mr. Bundy received the stone by the provisions of the will of his father and during the years that it has been in his custody it has been applied to 1,300 patients, from 70 to SO per cent oi whom had been afflicted with dog bites. Thirteen persons had sougHt the use of the stone because riiey had been bitten by snakes.

MrjjKendall stated also that he mad-

had been used in the treatment

f various diseases with greater or

less success. The Bundy mad stone,

Mr. Kendall stated also that the mador, two inches long, 1H inches wide and a half inch thick. When applied to a wound into which poison has been introduced, the stone immediately adheres, and its poro13 formation at once admits and retains the blood that is drawn from the wound.

The process of drawing forth the poison is very slow, the witness said, and sometimes full days elapse before the porous structure is filled, at which time it will drop from the wound of its own accord. The stone is then placed in a solution of ml and water to cleanse it of its burden of poison and according to the witness, the milk and, water are so agitated by the chemical action thus brought about, that from all appearances the solution is boiling. This animated condition of the water continues until all the poison has been extracted, whereupon the liquid becomes placid. The stone is then removed and again applied and this process is repeated until the- stone fails to adhere, which the witness said was a certain sign that the poison had been entirely removed. The

stone when not .in use, the witness told the court and jury, was deposited in one of the vaults in the First National Bank at New Castle and it is never removed for application upon an afflicted person only when the owner or one of his immediate family was ' present. Mr. Kendall displayed his firm belief in the genuiness of the cures which the mad stone had performed and gave it as his opinion that had Irvin, the plaintiff in the suit, not submitted to its powers, he would have suffered from hydrophobia. The testimony of this witness was intended to impress upon the jury that Irvin had been bitten by a mad dog that was being harbored by the defendants. On cross-examination, Attorney John F. Robbins, put the witness through some intricate questioning relative to the mad-stone and its cures and the big crowd of spectators seemed to enjoy it immensely. The plaintiffs today will introduce Irvin and it will also be shown, it is asserted, that a few days after Irvin was bitten by the dog, another man also felt the fangs of Vfi same animal and was given the mad-stone treatment. . The defense, it is expected, will attempt to show that the dog in question was not vicious and not suffering from the rahbles and that Irvin was not severely wounded. The madstone theory will be attacked per. haps for the first time In a court in,
