Judge Raley Asks That Wade Case
Re Dismissed, Claiming That New
Law Repeals AH Old Indictments.
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

will probably prosecute the case
alone.
About J40.000 is at issue in this
case, that being the estimated value
of the estate of James W. 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.

ground that the court has no Juris
diction- The allegations In this case
are the same as those n the Buck and
Hayes case, namely, that the law en
acted by the peolle last June repeal
ing the law giving the district ntt" -ney

Farm Wheat Land.
R. M. O'Rrlen. the pioneer farmer
and stockman of this city, who has
been In Alberta for the past two
weeks, returned home last evening,
enthusiastic over that great new
country.
Mr. O'Rrien declares that that part
of Canada Is destined to become the
wheat granary of the world n a few
years when the vast stretches of new
country have been converted, as they
are being, into cultivated fields.
He looked over all of the country
surrounding Calgary and visited the
Canadian Pacific railroad company's
Immense experimental farm near
Ptrathmore and also inspected close
ly the wheat lands offered for sale
by this company. He says unhesi
tatingly that the cheap lands now of
fered for sale In that tract and In that
vicinity are absolutely certain to make
the purchaser Independently rich
within a few years.
The crops all over that section are
enormous nnd prices are good this
year. Near Calgary, he heard a farm
er make oath before a notary that a
piece of wheat nine acres in extent
had yielded (16 bushels per acre this
season and he saw fields of oats
yielding all the way from 60 to 80
bushels per acre.
He purchased a half section of land
and will perhaps Invest In more later
on. He says that settlers are golni?
In this year by the thousands and that
within a few months the choice tracts
near the railroads will have been lo
cated upon. 'HTTI
He made a close study of the cli
matic and soil conditions In nnd
around Calgary and east of that city
and declares that there Is every in
ducement for settlement and thai
railroad facilities and markets are al
ready to be found there In abund-
