COURT HOUSE NOTES Although the county clork's office has beeo open for the issuance of aoglers' licenses less than a single month the number of licenses taken out by devotees of the rod and reel already exceeds nearly two to one the number issued to hunters during the entire six months past. The actual record shows 90 anglers' licenses as against 61 hunters' licenses. All of this would indicate that the sainted Isaac Walton and not Nimrod, of ancient myth, Is entitled to be regarded as the presidlnggenius over the sports men of Polk county.

Kimball, an old and honored resident of this vicinity met his death cy his own hand at his ranch about three miles southwest of Dallas near Oakdale, Wednesday afternoon. n t i t . uuiouer a. u. unapman was sum moned to the scene immediately after toe body was discovered, but it was so clearly a case of suicide that he did not deem an inquest neceasarv. ine wire of the deceased was not at home when the tragedy was enacted having gone with a party of women or that vicinity to a neighbors home to spend the afternoon gathering gooseberries. A number of the women in the party heard the reports of the gun with which the unfortunate man effected his suicide, but passed it over as a shot fired by some transient hunter in the neighborhood. Later in the evening, Mrs. Kimball left for home in a buggy with the daughter of Mr. Nelson and one of her friends. As they entered the yard, the Nel9on girl, who was driv ing, was horrified to see the body of the dead man lying so near the road way that the wheels of the buggy almost grazed bis head. Mrs. Kim ball, seated on the other side of the DUggyi was fortuuately spared the shock of the terrible discovery and, with great self-control, the girl drove quietly on and allowed her to alight from the rig at the house, still in ignorance of the fact of her husband's death. This done she turned around and, going with all possible haste to the J. W. Robinson home, notified them of the sad occurrence and sent Mrs, Robinson back at once to break the sad news to the widow. Mrs. Kimball was prostrated when the full realiza tion of the blow that had fallen dawned upon her, and her condition is considered extremely grave. ihere is every evidence that the suicide was committed deliberately and was carefully planned before- hand. The gun had been fastened with a chain to a tree and a string attached by means of a pulley in such a manner thatone could stand directly discharge PROBATE. Estate of Martha J.
