QUEER MR.. ONDERnONK.
His Will Disinhsrfss One Son, .IEandt-
caps Another, and Oensures
His Wife.

A New York special says: When old
lioratio T.. Onderdonk died last May in
MaLhasset, J.. l., bis will was foundto be
most curious and elaborate document. His
ecCertricities during his life had kept him
continually engaged In legal litigation, and
he remarkable disposition he has directed

bis lcgatees in contest that promises 10 be
interminablc. A petition was filed to-day
in the Surrogate's Court at Jamaica
asking that the decree probatDg the
will be revoked and the Instrument
set aside as invalid. One OF Mr.. Onder-
dOnk's disinherited sons ~ the petitioner.
The Onderdonk estate Is valued at about
1900, 200. The will was made in 1885, but
codicil was attached year later in which
100000 was divided between three Catholic
institutions. These requests are remarka-
BILE because Mr.. 0ndcrdOnk gave but 81 700

set, OF which he WAS a lifelong member.
Thirteen children and grandchildren come
in for the remainder OF the property, but
nothing is left 10 his son John, whom the
will states "has become insOlent, defiint,
calumnious, and finally inhuman."
Another son, Francis, i denounced as eX-
trayagant and indolCnt, but Is given the in
come OF 100000 on condition that he does
not oppose the probate Of the will, never
permits his interest to be encountered,
does not marry under the age OF twenty
dght years and then only with the written
approval OF three OF the executors, does
not drink Intoxicating liquor or Use tobacco
in any form, never witnesses horse races,
visits gambling or billiard saloons, and
avoids spendthriits. II a single condition IL
violated Francis loses the income. Mr.. On
GcrdOnk was twice married. lie took occa-
sion in the will to laud the frat wiie's
economy and censure his second wife'S ex-
iravagance in The treatment Of her sons,
John and Francis. The second Mrs. On
doIdonk had fortune in her own right,
ard Sue bCqueathed the whole OF II to her
two sons, at the same time making their
father executor. When they became OF
see they were entitled TO absolute posses
sion OF the legacy, but the father retained
It until his son John compelled him to give

after. Francis, however, escaped disiu-
bcritance by not Joining in The dispute.
John Onderdouk proposes 10 battle again
for his natural rights, and has therefore
protested against the Wills probate. His
brother Frank saves bis Inheritance by
keeling out OF the struggle. but be will
