An excellent programme, in which several original farces by the | | pupils, was rendered, and the after- noon was passed off in a merry man- ner. The farces were exceedingly good and provoked much merriment | inasmuch as they dealt with charac- | |ters and scenes in and around the | school. | Miss Susan Towt, president of the graduating class, had charge of the| programme, which was as follows: Farce, “Reunion of Eight Old Maids | of the ¢ of '04"; solo, Miss Lynck farce, “The Successtul Schoolmarm”; | Japanese love song, school sextette; | farce, “A Conversation in the Girls' toom’ cla prophecy, Miss F.

Sanborn, Vail & SAT WITNESSES Downing, Cohn and Wessels Testify That They Saw Liquor Man in Nome and Chicago REFUTE SUICIDE STORY Evidence Is Given in Aection to Set Aside the Probate of the Missing Man's Will -— The petition of the creditors of the estate of John Wolf, the liquor man, for a revocation of the order admitting his will to probate was given a par- tial hearing in the Probate Court yes- terday and the case was continued un- til next Tuesday. The evidence taken yesterday tended to show that Wolf's alleged death was not fully established. Wolf disappeared in 1898. At that time he was executar of the estate of Sarah M. Plerson, and when he left he took part of the estate with him. Some months ago Mary Woir, his wife, of- fered for probate a will made by him and it was admitted, after she had shown that a deputy coroner of Seattle had identifled the remains of a man who had drowned himself in the waters of the Sound as those of Wolf. Some weeks later David B. Faktor and Ed- ward Aigeltinger, Wolf's bondsmen, who were sued by the creditors of the Plerson estate. filed a petition to re- veke the order admitting the Wolf will to probate, claiming they had proof that Wolf had been seen in va- rious parts of the country long after the discovery of his supposed remains in the Sound country. This proof was offered yesterday in the testimony of J. M. Downing, J. A. Wessels and Felix Cohn. Downing, who was once employed by Wolf as a drayman, testified that he spent sev- eral days with the liquor man in Alaska in 1901. Wessels said he also saw him in Nome, and Cohn testified that but a short time ago he saw him in Chi- cago. All the witnesses knew Wolf intimately during his residence here and were unshaken by the cross-ex- amination that followed the giving of their direct testimony. ———— RIVERHEAD, R. 1, Dee. 17.—Tuthill Reeve, the demented farmer who yesterday shot and killed a deputy sheriff while the lat- ter was tryins to serve an execution for debt at his home near here, surrendered to-day after an all-night siege.
