Equity Suit 20 Determine the Provision
OF Rev. DIR. MERGERS VIII.

NEWPORT, r. l., Mar. Am important
equity suit was entered in the supreme court
yesterday by Anna G. Pell, executrix of tho
will of the late Alexander G. Mercer, d. d.,
who was absolute owner of All Saints. chapel
in this city, which, during the season, was
generally attended by cottage residents. DR..
Mercer was regarded as a comparatively poor
man, and was only assessed on $4,000 personal
property, and even this was thought to be ex-
cessive. This suit reveals tho fact that Dr.
Mercer, with probably one exception, was the
richest man in Newport. The schedule ac-
companying tho bill shows property valued
at over $1,0OO,0O0, $4,000 of which is
in bonds paying from 4 to 10 per cent. inter-
est, and $500 shares of good paying railway
and other stocks. The bill asks the court for
instructions regarding the disposition and in
vestmcnt of certain portions OF the estate, and
requests decision as to who is meant by
managers and directors Pennsylvania hos
pital, Philadelphia; president Yale college aud
secretary Smithsonian institution" to each
of which large sums are bequeathed under tho
will. The greatest interest has been excited
by these developments, and the city officials
are dumbioundCd.

Close Shooting,

CHICAGO, Ill, Mar. A. The second pigeon
match between Capt A. II, Bogardus and DR.,
w. T. Carver was shot at the Chicago Driving
park yesterday afternoon. The terms were (:

barrels, eighty yards boundary. There was
no betting at the start, but after about forty
birds had been shot odds of 10 TO 4 were
offered on Carver, and the rate was unchanged

strong flyers. BoRardus missed two of his
first three birds, and Carver led by two or
three up to the oighty-fifth bird, when Bo-
gardus drew up TO even, and they shot to-
gether to the ninetoth bird. Carver killed
his last ton birds straight, Bogardus missing
three. Carver won with score of 81, Bo-
Gardms being threo hehind. with 10.

Ohills, their Causes and Oonseouences,

| Catarrhs should receive careful con,
| sideration, instead of the neglect which
they generally meet with until they
| have fastened on the part affected so
much as to excite the attention, and per-
haps alarm of the sufferer Here, how
ever, we propose to say few words
about the causes of chills. A person in
good health. with fair play, easily re-
sists cold. But when tho health flags n
| little, and liberties are taken with the
stomach or the nervous system, a chill
is easily taken, and according to the
weak spot of the individual, assumes
the form of cold, or pneumonia, or, it
may be, jaundice. OF all causes OF
s'cold," probably fatigue is one of the
most efficient. A jaded man coming
home at night from long days work,
growing youth losing two hours sleep
over evening parties two or throe times
o week, or a young lady heavily ''doing
the season." young children at this fes-
tive season overfed and with short al
lowance of sleep, are common instances
! able to chill taking; very hot rooms,
soft chairs, feather beds, creates q SEN
sitiveness that leads to catarrhs. 1t is
| loI, ttILCA oils CiiS SOlSy Uhtlt IL Sb
much to be feared as the antecedent
conditions that give the attack n chance
of doing harm. Some of the worst
''colds' happen to those who do not
! leave their house or even their bed, and
those who are most invulnerable are Of
ten those who are most exposed to the
| changes Of temperature, md who, by
good sleep, cold bathing, and regular
habits preserve the tone of their ner-
vous system and circulation. Probably
many chiils are contracted at night OF
at the fag end Of the day, when tired
people get the equilibrium of their cir
culation disturbed by either oVerheated
sitting rooms or under heated bed rooms
and beds. This is especially the case
with elderly people. In such eases the
mischief is not always done instantane-
ously, Or in single night. 1t often
takes place insidiously, extending over
days and even weeks, 1t thus appears
that. taking cold'' is not by any means
simple result OF lower temperature,
but depends largely On personal condi-
tions and habits, affecting especially the
nervous and muscular energy of the
! bOdy,-L012cet

4 Boy Who Would Stutter he did not
Whistle.

A recent addition to the Newsboys'
Home, Philadelphia is bright-looking
lad who halls from Syracuse, N. Y, and
glories in the name of Michael Connolly.
Michael is probably among the most re-
markable whistlers of the age. He
whistles every time he opens his mouth
to speak, and frequently is compelled
to whistle after every word he utters.
"It just seems like I'd bust if I don't
whistle" he remarked to reporter yes
terday afternoon, and he whistled no
less than four times in saying it. The
lad is a professional itinerant bootblack.
He was taught to whistle as a cure for
a most aggravating case of suffering.
So violent were the attacks that Michael
would be thrown into convulsions when
he attempted to speak; and he declared
that several times he was nearly stran-
gled to death in making efforts to talk.
One day two years ago friendly Gus
toner suggested that he should whistle
before he attempted to speak and see
how far that would relieve him. The
boy tried the whistling cure, and the eff
feet was so gratifying and afforded such
relief that he adopted the practice and
continued it until it became a habit.
His suffering has almost entirely dis
appeared, but the result has been that
he cannot begin to frame sentence un-
til he eas relieved himself by a soft, low
whistle, which is repeated every few
seconds. If he says '.Thank you sir,
he whistles three times, once before,
once in the middle and once at the end
of the sentence.-PhitddelphiG Record,
The Democratic press. [volume] (Ravenna, O. [Ohio]) 1868-1901, 1883-07-19

Oattla Nincs Of Texas,

Henry r. Harris, Jr., lately back
from trip to Texas. where he has some
extensive landed interests, told NE how
he found things in the Lone Star State.
He said: 81 saw in Fort Worth an old
fellow who didn't look as if he had q
dollar, that was one of the cattle kings
of Texas. He had lately sold his herds
to company of capitalists for 81, $780,
600. They had not yet made the pay
ment ana were already offered $1,000
600 for the same herds by . London
company He did not own an acre oi
land, but simply sold his cattle-mark.
The tendency is for outside capital to
control the business. / rode over with
a Mobile capitalist who was carrying
$500. 900, with which he was going to
set his son up in cattle. He estimated
that the money-that is. the herds
would double every three years, and
that is about tho estimate of the best
cattle men in Texas. .--At5Gntn Co2sStttsG-
