Lost Testament of Martha Washington
May Yet Causa Legal Battle, How
vor Governor Stuart Writei to
; Morgan Requesting Return of Paper.
Ample Funds to Carry on Fight.
Richmond, Va. Members of the
Daughters of the American Revolution
who bare been, deuinudlng from J. T.
Morgan the return of the Martha Wash
ington will, stoleu from the Fairfax
County courthouse during the civil war
and found in the private collection of
the late J. r. Morgan, have decided to
resort to diplomacy to retrain the treas
ure Instead of appealing to the law
through State Senator Thornton's bill.
now a law, but held up temporarily.
Governor Stuart will now shoulder
the burden of reclaiming the will, en
deavoring to do so by gentle persuasion
tipon Mr. Morgan and the plea that his
holding stolon property cannot reflect
credit on him or his family, even
though the property was taken during
times of war and was therefore prlvl
leped "loot-
Governor Stuart has agreed to write
Mr. Morgan a letter couched In the
most diplomatic language possible ask
ing for the return of the will.
It Is believed here that Mr. Morgan
will accede to the governor's request
and return the will, thereby avoiding
unpleasantness and the bother of a
long and hard fought law suit. Should
such a suit be brought efforts will be
made by the Fairfax Daughters to
learn just how Mr. Morgan's father
got the valuable document in his pos
session and the identity of the actual
taker may be learned.
The fight for the recovery of the will
not only has the support of the na
tional organization of the Daughters
of the American Revolution, but of
.Virginia patriotic societies.
There will be no lack of money to
push the case against Mr. Morgan
ehould the matter finally be sent to the
courts.
The Martha Washington will contro
versy has been attracting wide atten
tion, since December, when It was pub
lished that the will had been found In
the Morgan collection. Demands were
made on Mr. Morgan for return of the
will, but without avail. To one re
quest Mr. Morgan's secretary replied
with the offer of a photographic re
production, but ignored the demand
for the original.
MODERN WORLD'S WONDERS.
Wireless and the Panama Canal the
Greatest, Germans Think.
Berlin. The Berliner Lokalanzeiger,
the big popular daily which has Just
passed out of the hands of its founder,
August Scherl, into the control of a
syndicate supposed to represent the
kaiser's government, has been holding
a symposium of its readers on the sev
n modern wonders of the world.
Prizes have been awarded to eight
persons, who are agreed that the fol
lowing are the seven chief wonders of
the twentieth century: Wireless teleg
raphy, the Panama canal, the dirigible
airship, the flying machine, radium,
the cinematograph and the Imperator.
Wireless and the Panama canal were
the favorites among the voters.

INDIANS ASK CITIZENSHIP.
Would Develop Self Denial, Says Reg
iatrar Parker, Choctaw. . '
rhlladolphla.-Kull rights of citizen
ship for the American Indian were ad
vocated at the council of the Society
of American Indians, The speakers
declared that admission to full citizen
ship and the right of ownership rather
than occupancy should be granted to
the red man. Gabe E. Parlr, newly
appointed register of the treasury, a
Choctaw, declared that tho lndlau was
In a peculiar position, being Independ
ent in a tribal sense yet dependent In
national relations. Mr. Parker said
that there were 300,0(10 Indians iu tho
United States and that 138,328 had
citizenship rights.
"Tribal life must be abandoned," be
said, "before the Indian can become
self supporting or a vital force In our
national life. He must be recognized
as a man of capabilities. He baa made
great progress In adapting himself to
the Itfe of the country. He hag suffer
ed from the one fault of lack of self
denial, but If the Indian bo given bis
land with privileges and responsibili
ties of proprietorship he would soon
develop that quality.'
BACHELOR READY TO
WED FOR NEW LAW
Klnkald of Nebraska Sets
Chanter In Uproar,
Washington. Representative Moses
Klnkald of Nebraska, a bachelor, was
greatly embarrassed recently In the
house. Mr. Klnkald's bachelorhood has
frequently been the subject of Jest
among his colleagues, but he was near
ly obliged this time to get married as
a means of forcing through a bill In
which he has a keen luterest
Mr. Klnkald asked consideration for
"a bill providing that the marriage of
a homestead entryman to a homestead
REPRESENT ATTVB KIKKAJD.
entrywoman shall not Impair the right
of either to a patent after compliance
with the law for one year."
Mr. Kinkaid declared that the pres
ent laws are an Impediment to mar
riage in the public land states and that
this should be tolerated no longer.
'The gentleman from Nebraska has
a good deal of nerve to call this bill
up," suggested Representative Mann of
Illinois. "He says It la against public
policy to prevent marriage, while the
gentleman all bis life has been pre
venting one marriage that ought to
take place."
"I do not stand In the way of mar
riage of worthy widows, widowers,
bachelors or maidens," responded Mr.
Klnkald.
"I suggest an amendment including
our Nebraska friend," observed Repre
sentative Madden of Illinois.
"I would be Included," said Mr. Kln
kald smilingly.
"We should like to help the gentle
man get married," said Mr. Mann.
The bill was passed.
SPEAKS MANY LANGUAGES.
Indian, Walking to Washington, Seeks
Voting Privilege.
Columbus, Ind.-Chlef White Cloud,
who says be has recently been elected
chief of 2,800 Dakota Indians, stopped
here for a short rest while on his way
to Washington to see President Wilson.
The chief Is walking the entire -distance,
and when be meets the presi
dent be Intends to request the chief
executive to do all be can to give the
Indians a vote.
Chief White Cloud calls attention to
the fact that he is a Carlisle graduate,
that he speaks twenty-three languages,
nine of which are foreign tongues and
the others Indian dialects; that he has
taught school and Is now an Indian
chief, but that he has no right to
vote.

BOXERS ACTIVE
THE GOUNTRYOVER
Another long established practice at
boxing shows, which bad Increased to
such an exteut that It became a nuis
ance, was legislated out by the New
Vork state athletic commission at a
weekly meeting. It Is the custom of
Introducing numerous boxers from the
ring previous to the start ot the main
event. In some Instances the list of
Introductions ran up to a dozen or
more, and they occasioned much delay
as well as weurluess to the spectators.
The rule adopted by the commission
provides that there shall be no Intro
ductions from the ring except that re
lating to the boxers who are to take
part lu the next bout
Another rule adopted by the commis
sion was that no cases will be consid
ered lu the future unless both parties
to the Hgrveiueut In dispute have sign
ed contracts.
Fight fans are commenting on the
effective showing Knockout Eggers
is making lu his .bouts and predict
great things for this scrappy lad, who
has fought twelve battles since New
Year's day without a defeat
Ills next fight will be his thirteenth
for 101-4. But F.ggers is not superstl-

Tbe British National Sporting club
has received a dispatch from Jack
Johnson. In Paris. In which he declines
to fight Sam Latigfonl for $15,000. Tbe
directors of the club will meet and
may Increase the offer.
"I'm willing to fight Langford," said
Johnson, "but I will have to have a
better offer than that made In London.
1 haven't much money left but the
Britons can't tempt me with a cheap
offer."
Johnson has definitely declined an of
fer to meet Gunboat Smith In a match
on the Mexican border this summer.
He will, however, meet Frank Mora a
tbe American heavy, on tbe duy before
the Grand Prix, as announced.
Packey McFarland and Mike Gib
bons will fight In New York March k
There seems to be some hitch re
garding the amount of money which
tbe boxers are to receive for their ten
rounds of work. McFarland, as usual,
demands a very large sum. He wants
a flat guarantee of $10,000. This tbe
Garden A. C. is not willing to give.
Tbe directors of the club say that Mc
Farland should be willing to box on a
percentage basis.
This will probably be McFarland'l
last Important battle before be retires
from tbe game. For this reason men
who are in touch with McFarland say
that Is why the match with Gibbons is
worth $10,000. Quite a number of wise
ones profess tbe belief that McFarland
will meet defeat for the first time In
his twelve years In tbe ring, and be
cause of this be Is anxious to obtain a
"get away" stake proportionate with
tbe loss of bis prestige as a boxer.
Gibbons Is so confident of a decisive
victory that be is willing to meet the
Garden A. C. officials more than bait
way regarding bis end of the gate re
ceipts. Gibbons has conceded all ol
McFarland's demands In reference tc
the weight conditions and has agreed
upon I 45 pounds at 4 o'clock on th
flay of the battle.
It does not follow that Dunfermline
Is grossly ungrateful because Its taste
In stained glass windows differs from
that of Mr. Carnegie. It is entitled
to its opinion, for It would have to
look at tho windows twelve months
In the year.
"The contact of civilization." says
General Scott, who wis sent to pacify
the Arizona Indians who recently took
to the warpath, "Is too hard for them:
the Indian who In the main is reason
it hie nnd well intcntloiied always gets
the worst of It." This Is the complaint
uf h great many palefaces also.
