of BrOOke'S Removal

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-Secretary of
War Proctor was interviewed tonight
regarding the rumor from the
Indian agency at Pine Ridge,
S. D., that Gen. Brooke had been
relieved. Secretary Proctor said that
he knew nothing whatever about the
matter, and did not credit the report.
Gen. Schofield, at the head Of the army,
could not be seen personally during the

through other sources, there appeared
little reason for believing the report to
have any substantial foundation.

It seems strange that there are 80
many people almost wholly Indifferent
to the public welfare of our little city
of Lewiston. We have often been
amazed to find the most absolute want
of public spirit among some Of our best
citizens. They like to see the town
prosper, but never think of raising
their voice or hand in behalf of the
community. No good citizen should
forget that he owes to the town in
which he moves, lives and enjoys the
blessings surrounding him, a debt that
he can only cancel by direct public
effort on behalf of that community
proportionate to his wealth and the
station to which he is exalted and has
been blessed and protected in his accu
mutations. No citizen is wholly indie
pendent, however wealthy or where.
ever he resides. He is dependent upor
his fellowmen for all that he has and
holds, and his community Is entitled
to his personal efforts and c0nstan
help In promoting the common interest,"
above all sel6shness.

The Balloon Ascension.

Prof. Colby, the daring aeronaut, who
made the successful ascensions from Peaks
Island two years ago, made another from the
island, under engagement with Mr.. Nc
Callum, yesterday afternoon. The Casco
Bay line steamers. and the S. e. Spring of

observed, were black with spectators, and
everybody on the craft In the bay, watched
for the balloon. u ,ee, !,
The process of imitation was successfully
concluded a few minutes past 5 O'Clock
when Prof. Colby took his place In the
swing below the balloon and amidst the
obs and abs Of the onlockers sped rapidly
into space. When the balloon, which was
filed with not air. had reached an elevation
of about one thousand feet. the parachute
was dropped, with Prof. Colby beneath 1t.
At the same time the valve in the balloon
proper was opened and the hot air escaping
the balloon gradually collapsed and fell to
the ground. The parachute slowly opened,
the professor descending at great speed at
first, and then the speed slowly decreased
until parachute and the professor safely
landed near the church on the hill. The ex.
hibition was capital one.

CASE TAKEN FROM REFEREE.
And VIII Co in Course 10 the Probate
Court.

Professor William b. Wedgwood. of the
University of New York, died in 1887. and
,eit some $4,000 In bonds to his neices, Mrs.
W neazle OF Parsonsfeld and Miss Abbie
Wedgwood OF Limerick. He had given
nouse 10 his wife, and was living with and
was taken care of by these two neices for
some time, until his death. When he died,
D. A. Edgerly. of Great Falls, N. H., was
made the executor. The bonds were given
10 the executor. at his request. for the pur-
pose OF appraisal Of the estate. The residu-
AIRY legatees objected to the granting of the
ponds to the claimants, and they were never
SO paid. suit at law was brought against
Mr.. Edgerly through F. M. Higgins. Esq, of
Limerick. Hon. Wilbur r. Lunt appeared
for the defence. and because of some techni-
cal informality. the case was non suited.
A second action was brought, however, and
Sewall c. Strout, Esq, of this city, was as
ISOLATED with Mr.. Higgins in the prosecution
of the case. Everybody was desirous of a
settlement of the case as soon as possible,
and at citing held at the office Of Judge
Tapley In Sac0, who had succeeded Mr..
Lunt as counsel, an agreement was made to
leave something to referee. What that
something was was the matter in dispute at
hearing before Judge Virgin yesterday
morning
At this hearing, Mr.. Strout and Mr.. Hig-
gins appeared for the claimants. and Mr..
Edgerly appeared for himself, with Judge
Tapley. l.. s. Moore of Limerick, and 81. V.
Moore Of Berwick as his counsel. e. M.
Rand, Esq. of this city, is counsel for the
widow Of Professor Wedgwood, but he did
not appear In this case.
At the very beginning of the hearing, q
question of veracity arose between Mr..
Strout and Judge Tapley, which was argued
very sharply between them.
1t seems that since the Inauguration of this
suit 1t has been learned that the estate of
Professor Wedgwood, instead Of being large
as was supposed, Is really insolvent. Mr..
Strout claimed that an agreement had been
entered into between himself and Judge
Tapley, that at the trial before the referee
the question should be tried on the main is
sue as to whether the gift were valid one,
without reference to the matter of lnsolyen-
cy. This agreement Judge Tapley denied in
toto. de declared that no such proposition
was made, much less assented to. Mr..
Strout. with equal frmness, adhered to his
position, aud Mr.. Higgins, who was present
at the conference, agreed with Mr.. Strout.
The debate took rather personal turn, but
finaliy 1t was arranged that there should be
no hearing at all before the referee, but that
the case should take its usual course through
the probate court, and eventually be decided
by The supreme court.
