Superintendent Of "oread" Presented
With Gold Timspiecs by co-Worker
Thomas S. Osborn, the superintendent
Of repairs in the construction Of the
famous Dread, for the purposes Of the
enlarged business OF the Shredded
Wheat Company, was pleasantly sur
prised Saturday night, when his CO.
worker, Fl. ID. Perky of the Cereal Ma
chine Co. presented him with tokens Of
The high esteem in which he is held.
Mr.. Osborn was called upon as the new
year was ushered in by the church bells
of the city, and presented with an ele-
CANT gold watch, chain and locket bear
ing the inscription, ITO Thomas Os-
born a Happy New Year From a CO.
worker, II. ID. Perky, 1899" On both
sides of the locket was inscribed the
seal "Oread," and the complimentary
encomium, Hes a man for a. that"
The presentation speech was made by
G.. A. Cheney, the judge in The Spy's
notable advertising contest, who is adj
vertising manager for the Shredded

his usual eloquent vein, and Mr.. Osborn

owner cannot be sick. He won't be
nervous either, and his food will agree
with him. His lungs will be strong, and
there will be no chance for consumption
to get footing. His head will be clear,
and there will be, within him, an ambi-
ton to work. Good health is such
simple thing - so easy to have. DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is the
medicine that induces good health. 1t
strengthens the stomach when weak,
purifes the blood, tones up the nerves,
strengthens the lungs, and cures all dis
eases that, if neglected or badly treated,
end in consumption. It is temperance
medicine-no alcohol or whisky in it.
Its protracted use does not create a crav-
ing for intoxicants. If afflicted, better
write about your case to DR.. r. V. Pierce,
at Buffalo, N. Y. He charges no fee

THE PETITION DENIED.

The litigation in the Wilcox estate
was simplified a step yesterday when
Judge Hopkins handed down a decision
refusing to discharge the trustees of
the funds of the Wilcox estate, who
are several of the leading savings
banks of the city.
The case was in the nature of pc
tition Of Alfred w. Wilcox, Franklin
P. Douglas ct ais, against Charles S.
Forbes ct ais, praying that the court
discharge the trustees of funds of
the defendants held in the name of Cla-
ra c. Wilcox, William A. Wilcox, Lucy
Eta Douglas, said funds being placed
in several Worcester banking institu-
tons.
The defendants claimed that the
funds of the estate of Alfred w. Will
cox were deposited in the names of
the persons specified, for the reason
that the state allows savings institu-
tons to pay interest only on a limited
amount, and that for this reason, in
order that the funds of the estate
which are greatly in excess of the
amount on which interest is allowed
by law might draw interest, they were
placed in different names.
Frank P. Goulding, Bben F. Thomp-
son appear for the plaintiff; Charles s.
Forbes for the defendants

WILL BE TAFT.
District Attorney Hoar Re-
tainS Present Assistant.

1t is now practically assured that
George S. Taft will be the next assist
ant district attorney. Since the election
of Gen. lockwood Hoar as district at
torney, the names of several lawyers
who worked indefatigably in his inter-
ests have been mentioned, but the
choice promises to fall upon Mr. Taft,
in spite of petitions for other favorites
which have been circulated.
1t is thought that the selection of Mr..
Taft to appear for the government in
the inquest upon the Worcester and
Suburban accident was significant of the
appointment to be made, but such was
not the case, as District Attorney Par
ker directed that Mr.. Taft should rep
resent the commonwealth.
The official term of Gen. Hoar as dis
trict attorney begins Wednesday, when
it is expected that authorized an
nouncement will be made of Mr.. Taft's
appointment. 1t is understood that
Gen. Hoar has given as his reasons
for the appointment that he wishes as
his assistant one who has had expert
ence in connection with the position.
