GRANDPA'S WEALTH.

The EstNte of Colonel Folsom Does Not
Pan Out as Rich Expected, But 1t Will
Do.
WARSAW, N. Y, June 29.-Neither
President Cleveland's wife nor the heirs
of the late Colonel J. B. Folsom appeared
yesterday at the probate of his will. Benz.
Folsom, of Buffalo, was mere as attorney,
and DIR. w. n. Martin, of Folsomdale.
Judge Healy appointed Lloyd A. Hayward
special guardian and Or. W. N. Martin
and L. NJ. kittsley appraisers The prop
erty amounts to Sl50,000, of which $685.
900 is personal. The real estate lies in
Omaha, Tacoma and Lincoln, Neb., and
Attica and Folsomdale, N. Y, The home
of 200 acres is to be reserved intact,
with its appurtenances, until the grand
children, who are minors, reach their ma
jority. The Western property is to re-
main intact for six years. The will di-
vides the property among his eight
grandchildren, share and share alike.
Thus it will be seen that unless the West
ern property increases, as it is expected
to do, the Presidents wife will receive
only $4,000 instead of $4,000, as re-
ported.

CANADIAN INDEPENDENCE.

The Desire Growing Among the People OF
the Dominion for Independence and
Closer Commercial Relations With the
United States.
MONTREAL, Can, June 29.-Ccnsider-
able excitement prevails in political cir
cles about the Young Mems Liberal con-
ventiOn which will meet in Nordheimer
Hall on Wednesday next. Eight hum
dred delegates, representing political
clubs from every important city or town
in the Dominion, will attend. Young
Canada will assert itself by claiming the
right to negotiate its own treaties with
the United States as we'll as with
other foreign countries. The abolition
of life Scholarships will be advo-
Gated, also Of the vetoing power of the
Federal Government over provincial leg
islative acts. A liberal measure of re-
ciprocity with the United States will be
demanded and the proposed federation of
the British Empire, as far as including
the Dominion of Canada, will be strongly
condemned. But the main plank in the
Young Mems Liberal platform for the
coming federal elections will be the in
dependence of Canada. The French
Liberal party in the province of Quebec,
supported by a large section Of
the Conservatives and of the En-
glish-speaking population, have already
pronounced for independence. A strong
National party, lavoring independence, is
sending delegates to Montreal to join
hands with the French Nationalist. In
Nova Scotia, the Prime Minister, Mr..
Fielding, who has just carried the prov
ince by majority of five to one, is strong
for independence and in New Brunswick
and Prince Edwards Island the leading
men advocate independence and full
measure of reciprocity with the great
American republic.

NEW YORK, June 29.-When Mrs. Rose
Ann Bannon had finished sweeping her
four little rooms on the third floor of the
tenement house fiat, 504 West Fiftieth
street, at noon, yesterday, she sat down
for moment before setting the table for,
dinner. She had in her hand cup, in
which there was a small quantity of
carbolic acid which she had used for dis
injecting The rooms. She thoughtlessly
placed the cup on the table, and by the
time her husband and her four sons and
daughter had come home for dinner.

it's contents.
Mr.. Bannon sent one of his sons out
for pitcher of beer, and when it came,
he said: Crosse, you look tired. Take a
drop of beer and it will brighten you up
Bit" Mrs. Bannon took cup from the
table and let him pour little beer in it.
moment after drinking it she uttered
an exclamati on and fell back in her chair.
Her four sons ran for a doctor, while her
husband and daughter tried to revive her.
1t was no use. She lived only long
enough to explain about the carbolic
acid

Charges Against the Management IF tre
Freedmen's Hospital.

WASHINGTON, June 30.-Charge, have
been prepared and will be filed at the In.
terror Department against the managers
of the Freedmen's Hospital in this city.
The charges consist, it is understood,
that the hospital is generally mismanaged,
that the food furnished patients is not
such as it should be, and that there have
been personal supplies bought ostensibly
for the use of the hospital. These charges
are based upon the statements of num-
Der of people who have been under treat
ment at the institution. Similar charges
have frequently been made before and
have resulted in several Investigations,
none of which developed facts to sustain
them.

driftwood above the bridge, could 60 to

HopeEs, THE new mayor of Baltimore,
seems to be the kind of man that the
Democratic party needs in the White
House Just now; at least, he has a bet
ter idea of civil service than the present
incumbent of the Executive Mansion in
Washington. Hodges says man hold
ing an important position, the proper
discharge of the duties of which depends
upon the faithfulness of his subordin
ates, should have for such subordinates
his friends and not his enemies. In
harmony with this correct view, he has
selected from among his friends good
men and appointed them to office. Pre-
sident Cleveland seems to think that his
policy can be best carried out by having
political enemies for his subordinates.
and as consequence he is conducting
an administration which is daily grow
ing more unpopular. II it shall not
turn out dismal failure, it will not be
the fault of the President.
