JUDGE CUMMINs should sit down hard
upon the impudent policemen, whose in
sulting remarks and actions are really
bringing the Municipal Court into contempt.
A heavy fine, enforced by Imprisonment,
would soon bring the boorish models to their
senses. Their superior officers encourage
in them their impudence, and If Judge
Cummins desires to suppress their intoler-
ance he will have to take the matter into
his own hands.

Horace Greeley's Estate 70 be sold.

The estate of the late Horace Greeley,
at New Castle, Westchester county,
New York, known as the Horace
Greeley Farm, will be sold at public
auction September Sth by Israel A.
Haight, trustee Of the property. The
property is to be sold in pursuaI ce of a
decree of the Supreme Court rendered
June 4th last. Horace Greeley in his
will rescrlbed that this property
should be sold and the proceeds dis.
tributed among the children. He ap.
pointed Mrs. NJ. &. Smith as executrix.
Mrs. Smith, for some unknown reason,
did not carry ont the orders of the will,
and at her death left no instructions to
her heirs as to he disposal of the pro-
perty. Gabrielle NJ. Greeley, daughter
Of Horace Greeley, thereuron brought
action against Nicholas Smith, her
broiher-in. aw, to have the estate dis
posed of as ordered in the will of her
ta'her, and an interlocutory judgment.
entered in the action July I'd, provided
the sale of the estate.
There is no i'll feeling on either side
over the action. Mrs. Smiths neglect
TO carry out the dictates of the will, re-
shifted it is believed, from inability to
attend to the matter, as she was an
invalid for some time previous to her
death. The property is situated in the
town of New Castle, Westchester
county, and comprises about 100 acres,
with suitable buildings for farming
The sale is to take place at
noon at the post-otficc of Chappaqua

At IA late hour on s unday night five
men wearing masks forcibly entered
the residence Of Mrs. Mary Jane Far

the gang took from the safe a package
containing $500 and also s.. 800 in gov
ernment bonds. AT Mrs harrington
solicitations th- robbers gave her back
several souvenirs, with apologies for
having taken them. The spokesman of
the band then explained to MIR. Earring
ton that their safety made it necessary
that she should be bound and gagged,
and informed her that her submission
to this would protect her from harsh

condition she was found on Monday at
noon, almost dead from exhaustion and
fright. There is no clew to the per-

with horse and carriage to visit the
family of j. b. Smith, on East Gay
street. After pleasant day his team
was brought to the door toward
evening, and just as he had stepped in,
and before he had time to take hold OF
the lines, the horse suddenly started
and turned around, throwing Mr.. Nit
chell ont with great force upon the
pavement. His head struck against
the curb and inflicted a cash fully two
inches long. He was Immediately
taken into Mr. Smiths residence where
the wound, which bled freely, was
dressed and his other injuries attended
to. He was unable to return to this
city until the next day, when he drove
the unruly horse home. When Mr..
Mitchell fell out, he knocked valu-
able set from ring which he wore, but
it was afterwards found on Monday
morning by Mr.. Smiths son.
