DR.. EVANS MILLIONS.
Minnesota Likely to Profit by the
Dentists WILL

NEW YORK, Nov. 16-Arthur E.
Valois, of this city, attorney for DR..
Thomas w. Evans, the famous Ameri-
can dentist, whose death has been an
| nounced from Paris, makes the follow
ing statement: There is no doubt that
the doctor was worth several millions.
1t has been said about thirty-five mil
liens, but place that little too high.
Whether there is a will is not vet
known, but I do not think a man of
such large affairs would die intestate
OF course we will not know for several
days. His heirs are Rudolph Evans,
eighty-fve years old, of Washington,
D. c.; his niece, Miss Gertrude Miller,
of Philadelphia, with whom the doctor
lived when in America, and several
nephews Two of the latter are abroad,
and how many there are in this country
1 cannot say. When DR.. Evans was
here he visited Princeton and he had a.
long conference with G. c. Harrison,
provost of the University of Pennsyl-
vania. He told Mr.. Harrison that it
had been his intention for many years
to found one or more dental colleges in
this country. He was in love with his
profession and did much to help young
men ambitious to learn the profession
He also visited Mr.. Morse, of Indian
apolis, former consul to Paris, and he
then visited Bishop Whipple and Arch
bishop Ireland in st. Paul He spoke
of leaving a large legacy for either a
charitable institution or a dental COL
lege in the state of Minnesota, saying
that it should be under their superYis-
ion. He had the greatest friendship
and admiration for both prelates
"Mr. Evans was interested in several
institutions along this line in Paris. He
built the Lafayette home in the Rue de
la Pont, which is for young American
Oi ctII6Jvinor music mainline or
of the arts abroad. This was first es-
tablished with capacity of 100, but so
popular did it become that DR.. Evans
last year began the construction of a
six-story addition, which will be COM
pleted Dec. %. This will increase the
capacity TO 300.
"Dr Evans buried his wife last June
in Woodland cemetery, Philadelphia,
and he frequently expressed the wish
to be buried beside her. There will be
a funeral ceremony in Paris, and when
the body comes here there will be SER
vices in st. Johns Episcopal church,
Philadelphia, of which DR.. Evanrs was
a member.
RED WING, Mimi. Nov 16-Bishop
Whipple, the lifelong friend of DR..
Evans, the American millionaire den
list, who has just died suddenly in
Paris, was asked today what he knew
of his friends philanthsopicsand educa-
tional plans. He said; : s--ol- ee AZ
Or. Evans has never given the world
all of his plans. 1 have been his inti-
mate friend for thirty years and have
known for years his purpose of estab-
fishing in connection with the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania a college of dental
surgery, which he meant to be the first
in the world. He established a Paris a
school for American girls, where girls

A Victim of Pick Pockets.
In mentioning last week Mr.. John
T. Brinkley's marriage in Valdosta, Ga,
we omitted to say that Mr.. Brinkley
was robbed on his way to Valdosta.
At Rocky Mount he purchased a
ticket through to Valdosta. Soon alter
the train pulled out from Rocky Mount
a stranger approached Mr.. Brinkley
and asked him to change twenty-dol-
lar bill, as he owed friend who was
with him ten dollars but did not have
the change. Mr.. Brinkley changed
the strangers money, who paid his
friend, and all then settled down tor 8
snooze.
At Fayetteville Mr.. Brinkley knew
he had his money for he changed his
position and remembers feeling the
money. When he reached Florence
S. c., he missed his money and foune
that his hip pocket bad been ripped
and rifeG. The two strangers we're no
on the train and he did not know whel
they left, but telt sure that it was the.
who had robbed him.
The amount he lost was $S4, and n
had only few dollars in small chang
left in another pocket.

Scotland Neck Cigarette Law.


On March 6, 1896. the commission
ers for the town of Scotland Neck pass
ed the following law:
at is ordered that on and after the
first day of May, 1896, all persons sell
ling cigarettes shall pay tax of fifty
dollars per annum for the privilege of
selling the same within the corporate
limits of the town."
There is no record that any one has
paid the $50 tax for the privilege of
selling cigarettes In the town of Scot
land Neck since that time.
But there is strong suspicion that
some one has sold cigarettes in the
town since that time and that they are
still being sold here. Will the town
authorities allow this thing to continue
without using due diligence to bring
the offender OF the law to justice?
The matter ought not to be passed
over, for several reasons
| l. Every wlltul v1Olator OF pla1r
law which is enacted for the lnteres
OF the public ought to be brought tt
justice.
2. If the sale of cigarettes In thi
town, or any other town, is profitable
business, every man who has mind t
engage in it ought to have an equa
chance with every other man.
| 8. Whoever sells cigarettes secret,
thus takes advantage of his competitor
in business, when he knows that n
one has paid the tax which the tow
commissioners said must be paid TO
the privilege.
For these and other reasons base
upon the high plane of justice an
obedience to wholesome law, The Con
MoNwEALTH calls upon the town al
thorlties to look into the matter.
What will they do?
We wait to see.

STRIKE IMMINENT,

Chicago, Aug. 13.-Two thousand
men employed on Chicago's public
school buildings will go on a strike
today by order of the Building Trades
council. ~ -s-.
There are 80 school houses under
going repairs and if the strike is not
settled soon it is said the buildings
will be in such a condition that they
cannot be used at the opening of the
schools in September.
The labor unions demanded that the
board of education insert a clause in
future contracts that nothing but
union men be employed on the school
buildings. A time was set for last
Wednesday when the unions asked to
