COULDN'T WAIT TILL SHE DIED A Woman Gives a Church a Thousand on Her Deathbed NEWOAsTLE, Pa., July 14.—The Epworth Methodist Episcopal church has just received alegacy of $1,000 in a very peculiar way. Mary Greer was an eccentric old lady of nearly four score years. About four weeks ago, feeling that her time had come, sho sent for her lawyer and a fricnd to make her will, She first usked to be carried to a woodshed in her yard, and there she pulled_aside somo rubbish and disclosed a cau containing $4,000 in gold. Then the old lady was carried into the house again and made will bequeathing 21,000 to the church and 00 to the Newcastlo hospital. 1t so happer.ed that public bequests made within thirty days of the death of de- cedontdo not hold in law and the good Methodists became a littlo anxious as_Mrs, Greer became weaker. One day Pastor Squires called on the dying womau and in- formed her of the provisions of the statute, suggesting that if she desired the church to have the $1,000 beyond question she had vetter pay tlie money over before her death, This she did and he gave his receipt and the congrogation is richer by that amount and poorer by the loss of a devout worshinper, — KILLED BY A POLICEM William Brennan Shot Dead and His W Mortally Wounded, Jemsey Crey, N.

Howover, the citizens here ap- prove of any examiuation, no matter how slow 1t s, so long as it is fair. It1s wondered hore why tho druggist who stood in with Dr. Test is not put upon the stand. 1t is not believed that he would com- mit perjury, and if he only tells all ho knows it is assorted that thore would be developed some startling facts in regard to the corrup- tion of certain members of tho logislature. There are a numbor of citizens here who posi- tively declare that not only the druggist but also the baker might be able to tell some- thing about the corruption fund of 00 raised for members of the lezisiature and to sccuro the passage of the deficiency bill for the asylum, A number of well kiown citi- zens say that when the corruption fund was being raised that the druggist and the other fellows interested in it assured the merchants approached that in case the bill was passed the money contributed would be returned. In two or three instances it is known that contributions have actually been made good and jt is - therefore sup- posed that all contributors to the corruption fund have received back the ar unt contributed by them. Now not only the citizens of Hastings, but it is safe to assumo that all tho taxpayers of Nebraska, would like to kuow from what source these funds wore drawn to repay these contribu- tors. If tho state of Nebraska paid theso fellows, it is urzed that the citizens of the stato should know it. This is the reason that there 15 considerable speculation as to whether the druggist wil be cailed on to testify. Cha Crannox, Neb..
