VALUABLE PROPERTY A WRECK.

Heirs Who Are Deadly Enemies Have Refnsed to Sell Their Interests. Twenty years ago Benjamin Kelly, a capitalist, came from Boston and took up his residence at Dublin. He brought with him his second wife. He built himself one of the 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 bandsome residence to his only heirs, his third wife and a daughter by the first wife. The former received thp north half of the house and the south half of the lot, while the wife received the south half of the house and the north half 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.
