An Attempt to Break the VIII of c. T.
sampson who Left $500, 900 TO Char
ity.
The next of kin of the late c. T. Samp-
son and his wife of North Adams have de-
termined to contest the will of Mr.. Samp-
son, The appeal from the decision of the
probate court allowing the will, will be
taken and a trial will be had at the SUI
preme judicial court next May. The es-
tate amounts to over 100000 and was
mostly left to charity, excluding the rela-
tives Should the will be broken the whole
estate would go to Mr. Sampson nephew,
Merritt Sampson, and the heirs of Mrs.
Sampson and the various public and char
table requests would be defeated. 1t is
understood that among the facts alleged
will be incompetency and undue influence.
This appeal vacates the judgment of the
probate court, allowing the probate of the
will, and a special executor in the place of
f. 5. Wilkinson will have to be appointed
pending final decision in the case.

VICINITY GLEANINGS.
The Burglars "COyered" Him

When James Smith interrupted Their
Work at Chester.
1t is thought that were four men in the
gang who broke into Sager's tin shop at
Chester Friday morning, as four men were
seen near Proctorsvile few hours before.
A safe in Waterman Brothers store at the
north village was tempered with the pre-
vious night and it was probably the work
of the same men. While the gang were
at work in the shop James Smith came
along and discovered them, but they kept
him covered with a revolver till he reac he'd
his house, which is near by.

Who longed to appear at her best,
And when she came east
The longing increased
And would not permit her to rest
She hurried at once to my store,
Enchanting, when inside the door

To find Ribbons and Lace
With Bonnets and Hats galore.
She ordered hat trimmed in green,

Is made up of styles
Suitable tor everybody,
At prices that are
Reasonable.

AS the PcrsianS know how to travel
in their own country, we have adopted
their fashion of carrying vaIiscs and
small trunks, and have invested in two
pairs of long carpet sacks, in which
these articles are packed Each sack is
called a ''ma-fresch,' and two of them
are a load for a horse, one being placed
on each side of the saddle, with the
weight carefully adjusted. These re-
ceptacleS are usually made of vclvCty
Persian carpcting, six feet in length
by eighteen in depth and width, shaped
like long narrow boxes, with stout
leather handles at each end, and Il null
titude of straps and buckles. In these
sacks all the small packages and yaltses
are placed, waterproof bags with bed
ding, our iron camp bcdstcads. Stools
tables, and carpets, are laid ON the top,
and after being tightly strapped mp,
they are lifted into place by the COM
bined efforts of all the men, and corded
on to the bulky pacll-saddles of the
horses. Provisions, wine, and cooking
utensils, are carried in two quaint
chests. made in a Tabrcez bazar, COW

vided with short legs, which prevent
the cords from slipping off. Another
