This part of the moral heritage has
one considerable advantage in the win
ter. the roads do not often obstruct bust
ness. Local papers in the belt four or five
hundred miles and more south mention
that the roads have been nearly impas-

the mud. 1t has not been uncommon,
in some of the towns, to see empty vehi-
cles abandoned in the street and nearly
sunk in the mud. When cold snap
does come the roads are too rough for
travel. Many failures in business are
credited to bad roads.

Representatives Compton, Of Mary
land, and Breckinridge, of Kentucky,
while lunching together not long ago in
the house restaurant, writes New York
Tribune correspondent, INDUCED in an
amusing discussion of Maryland affairs.
Mr.. Breckenridge remarked that one
day while Oh his way to Baltimore to
dine with the Merchants and Manufac-
turers' association, he observed that
when Laurel was reached that nearly
everybody on the tram got off at that
point. He inquired of one of the two
passengers who remained III his car the
name of the station. The latter in
formed him that it was Laurel, and
added:
Senator German lives over there"
pointing in one direction, "and Repre-
sentative Barnes Compton lives over
there" pointing in another direction,
land most of those people who left the
train here are employees in the depart
ments at Washington. They are SO
numerous that special train runs from
Laurel to Washington daily to accom-
modate the constituents of these two
gentlemen
Mr.. Compton received this startling
announcement good naturally, but re-
piled that fully two-thirds of the gov
eminent employees who make Laurel
their home are Republicans, and no
reasonable person will believe that Sem
ator German OF himself would recon-
mend Republicans for government APP
pointment Mr.. Breckenridge said he
knew nothing on the subject beyond
what his fellow-passenger had told him.
and therefore was perfectly willing to
accept Mr.. Compton's explanation.

There is unusual interest in the will of
Elon Booth, not only because of the pc
euliarities of the will itself and of the
man who signed it, but because SO large
an estate, almost wholly personal prop
erty, is seldom brought within the iuris-
diction OF the probate court of II compar-
atively small inland town like NewtOwn.
Dissatisfaction with the will was felt by
all heirs and it was not surprising that
eX-Judge ID. +. HoliSter of Bridgeport
and eN-Judge brewster of Daubury APP
peared for the heirs, Tuesday afternoon,
at the hearing ut the probate court.
Judge Benjamin Gritfpn Il Brookfield sat
as acting judge, Judge Beecher being
counsel for &. II. Peck, the executor
named in the will. The witnesses, David
w. Bronson. Mrs Mary Bronson, Mrs
Downs Gall of whom witnessed the will)
were briefly examined and then counsel
for the heirs, after consultation, offered
no objection to probating the will, but
will take their inning later. The will
WAS accordingly admitted to probate and
Charles II. Peck confirmed rs executor,
bonds of $l25,000 being promptly fur
nished. The heirs have 80 days in which
to file an appeal and it is understood that
they will do so, alleging mental incapac-
ity aud undue influence. The heirs at
law are Mrs G. n. Brins,nade of Trunl-
ball, a sister; John, Edward, Charles,
Susan and Sophia, children of Orville
Booth, IA brother. They will probably
make common cause against the will.
