DECISION IN WILL 1
CONTEST RENDERED
Evidence of any agreement between
George T. Myers Sr., and his wife that
their property should be evenly di
vided between the children by the sur
vivor's will was lacking, according to
Circuit J udge Morrow, who yesterday
afternoon decided the contest of the
will In favor of George T. Myers Jr.,
and against Georgia Frances Stevens,
his sister and the contestant. . The
property Is valued at between $500,
000 and $750,000 and of it Mrs. Stevens
receiveo nut J20.000 by her father's
will.
Mrs. Stevens first sought to break
the will on the alleged ground that h
father was mentally unsound .and was
prejudiced against her but lost-that
suit and then brought suit on the al
leged ground that her parents had
made mutual wills and agreed: that
the children should divide the property
evenly when. both died. Mrs. Myers
died first and Mr. Myers mad his will
cutting off Mrs. Stevens with the $20,-
000 legacy.
The first suit went through the
county court and circuit courts in Mrs.
Stevens favor but was reversed by
the supreme court. Mrs. Stevens is
the wife of B. F. Stevens, assistant
cashier at the First National bank, and
according to the testimony of Mr
Myers It was because Mr. Stevens
might benefit from the estate that his
father cut his sister off with the
small bequest.

company. Alick claims he -paid the
com pa v $1 for a permanent Job at
Wendling, Or., the work to be on a rail
road, and the wages $2.50 a day. -This
work was represented to be good of
Its kind, with good board at $5 a week

Things were painted so rosy for
Alick that he paid $9 railroad fare to
Wendling, then walked- to the camp
four miles from the station. Arriving
there, he' was told no more help, was
wanted. Back to the station walked
Alick, then to Portland. The employ
ment company refused to reimburse
