War hero to get $700000 legacy
Trustees of an estate valued over $2 million plan to award George Camp Douglas one third upon turning 35. The World War hero, wounded at Ypres in 1915 and 1917, earned a bravery citation from Lord Wrench. The will required two $2,500 annual earnings to trigger the share, a threshold now offset by his service and honors.

The Charley Ross Kidnapping Mystery Across Centuries
The famous Charley Ross case remains the leading unresolved kidnapping mystery. Dated from July 1874, it traces the Philadelphia boy's abduction, the ransom notes, and a decades long search by his family and authorities across America and Europe. Despite millions spent and several false leads, no definitive body or culprit has emerged, making it the classic benchmark for unsolved police cases.

Berliners hunt thousands of beetles after a flood of the field bugs, selling them to dealers who profit up to 300 percent. Farmers back the sales as a game for children, though the pests damage orchards and vineyards. An expert catcher nets about 1,000 bugs in four days, with bugs living about ten days as toys.
