BY the death of Samuel r. Mute in
Peabody, Mass, on Monday the town
of Milton, N. H., comes into possession
Of $4,000 in accordance with the con-
ditions Of the will of L. W. Mute. The
money is to be used for the benefit
Of the worthy poor Of the town. Mr..
Mute had evidently come to the concll.
sion that the building Of libraries and
museums is progressing at sufficiently
rapid pace to meet the thirst for
knowledge of letters and art. Just
about this time 1t is safe to say that q
great many persons will regard the
provisions Of Mr.. Nute's will as quite
as philanthropic in their way as the
comparatively common million dollar
bequest for education.
