Mrs. Mabel Warner, tried twice on the charge of forging a will to the estate of J. W. Young, Is to be tried the third time. The first two trials resulted In hung Juries. The case was called up this morn ing by Judge James A. Fee, appoint ed special prosecutor, and was set for fitrial nevt Monday. The attorneys for the state and for the defense both gave notice to the clerk to have the same witnesses summoned who tes tified In the first two trials. In the last trial. Fee was assisted by Judge S. A. Lowell, while J. P. Winter and James H. Raley appeared for the defense.

Toung, the well known Weston merchant and mill man who died a few years ago. It will be remembered that soon af ter the will found In the possession of the chief beneficiary had been pro bated that second and third ones ap peared under mysterious circumstan ces. The last two purport to leave practically all of the property to Mrs. Mabel Warner, a niece of the deceas ed, while the first and only one which has been probated, left the property to other relatives. After the last two wills appeared, Mrs. Warner was Indicted on the charge of forgery. It being alleged that she had forged the second al leged will. She was brought to trial but after more than a week had been consumed in the trial of the case tht jury was unable to agree and was dis charged. After several months she was again brought to trial and again the Jury was unable to agree upon a verdict. It Is practically agreed now that the last two alleged wills are spurious, the only question left to the courts to de termine being that as to .who forged them. Van Winkle Paroled.
