A. Noel, the county physician, was notified of the case. In the after noon he went out to look for the pair and found them near the Smart switch, beyond the cemetery. The two were utterly deserted, and the woman was very much in need of attention It was, however, yellow jaundice from which she was suffer- ing.
 Br. Noel had the two moved to the poor house and gave the woman the medical attention she required

SIX YEARS
SERVICES.
Miss Newell Sued Her
Mothers Estate.
HER CASE NON SUITED.
Now She Asks New Trial on Ground
That the Judge Erred.
HER CASE NON SUITED.
CASE BEFORE APPELLATE COURT

The petition of Henrietta T.. Newell for
a new trial Of her suit against Charles ii.
Lawton, executor on her mothers estate,
was submitted on briefs to Justices Sti-
ness. IilIinghast and Rogers in tho APP
pellate Court today.
The plaintiff sued in the Common
Pleas Division OF the Supreme Court TO
recover for services rendered for period
Of six years to her moth,r.
Miss Newell claimed her mother had,
when the services were rendered said sne
could not pay then, but implied that pay
ment would he made some time and that
in addition to general services the plain
tiff had taken care of poultry and used
the money for her mother.
The presiding justice in the common
pleas court non suited Miss Newell on the
ground that no promises 60 pay for the
services had been proven. On behalf of
the executor it was claimed that the
plaintiff had lived all her life with her
mother, that the ordinary rule in regard
to work done by child for parent ap-
piled IN this case, and that the, matter OF
payment for her services never entered
the mind of the plaintiff until after her
mothers death.
The chief point in the plaintiffs s petit
tion was the error Of the presiding JUS
tice in the lower court in granting de.
fendant's motion for..a non suit.

OVER A SMALL
BALANCE.
Mr.. Rose and Mrs. Ship
pee Are at Variance.
FORMER WAS GUARDIAN.
As Such He Spent Som. of His Own
Money For His Ward.
HE is NOW TRYING TO RE COVER.

The hearing in the Appellate Court this
afternoon on the bill Of interpleader filed
by the East Greenwich Institutions for
Savings in the controversy between Mabel
A. Shippee and her former guardian,
David l.. Rose. proved an interesting
one. The counsel for Mr.. Rcss during "a
long period OF time was former speaker
of the House of Representatives. Samuel
W. N. Allen, and Mrs. Shippee's attorney
has also been for good while former
state senator, Col. G. j. Arms.
These two residents of East Greenwich
when opposed TO each other put more
earnestDess than usual into their profes-
sional labors. though tho clients OF both
even when these attorneys are not oppos.
cd To each other are generally well salts
fled. Today Walter Is. Vincent appeared
Tor Mr.. Rose, though IL was evident by
the suggestions made by MIR. lien he has
not deserted tho cause.
Mr.. Vincent stated that the Appellate
Court had allowed an account OF Mr..
Rose. which showed that the guardian
hao paid out Sl2S more than he received
from the income, and profits Of Mrs Ship
pee's estate and had obtained permission
from the Court OF Probate of East Green

was the onlv property Mrs Shippee and
her brother Thaddeus Sprague. ever mad.
No appenl was taken from the decree OF
the Probate Court but befora the guard
ian could sell the land the East Green
wich Institution Tor Savings foreclosed
a mortgage on the property and now had
a balance on hand after payment of the
mortgage ana the costs of sale. The only
point in the case Mr.. Nineent said, was ms
to whether one half of this balance was to
be paid To David l.. Rose. guardian, or
n, Mrs. Sffrr-c.- Fine court cuurSuf; re-
iterated had said that MIR. Rose had paid
out SIPS above the income he received,
and he should now have chance TO

Col. Arms oomplimcnted Mr. Vincent
on his statement of tho case and said the
surplus after paying the mortgage debt
ana costs that was i'm tn, possession of
the East Greenwich institutions for saw
ings was sl23, and one-half of this would
go TO Mrs. Sbippee's brother, Thaddous

whether the balance should be paid to
Mrs. Shippeo or to David l.. Rose. Not

but simply To him rs private citizen Rose.
Col. Arms cited authorities in support of
bis contention that Mr.. Rose could not
collect the si2S after his guardianship had
expired and called attention TO the Ian
guage of the decree entered in the case
which stated there was a balance of ex-
penditures over the receipts. Continuing.
counsel said that when the income and
profits failed To meet expenditures the
guardian must apply to the probate court
for permission 10 sell the real estate of
his ward.
Counsel for Mr.. Rose here remarked
that that was just what he had done.

A LICENSE LAW.
One to Govern Milk Dealers Will
Be Asked For.
Present Law Does Not Prevent the Sale
ofAdulterated Fluid.

The law relative 20 the punishment OF
persons engaged in selling poor or adul-
terated milk is likely to DO strengthened
so that offenders will come to a realizing
sense of their responsibility in the matter.
Steps in this direction were taken by tho
Board Of Aldermen yesterday afternoon
when n resolution was passed directing
the city solicitor to apply TO the General
Assembly for legislation providing for
the licensing OF milk dealers ana power
to evoke such licenses in the event of
the violation OF the milk law after q cer-
tain number of convictions.
This has been matter that has been
under consideration by Inspector of Milk
Potter, and il the legislation asked for is
obtained, irresponsible milk vendors will
not escape penalty so easily as heretofore.
The idea is to charge street peddlers 81
for license and those who dispose of
milk in stores ~.
The standard of milk must he main
tanned OF prosecution will follow and
when the law has been winked at enough
times away goes the license of the
offender, and he will have to do some
thing else for living. Under the prss-
ent system the inspector of milk causes
the arrest of an offender and in court
there is a fight Finally the milkman
makes settlement in one way or another
and that is the last heard OF the case
Under the proposed change tie reckless
miIkman would be liable 10 loss his
license and that would lie more serious
matter than merely paying fine or set,
Ting the complaint in some other way.
