PROBATE COURT MATTERS

| Formal notice of appeal was filed in
 the probate court yesterday by Attor- | ney w. H. Stoddard. representing R. H. | Waters of Newburyport, Mass from l the admission of the will of the late | Professor o. c. Marsh to probate. | In the notice MT. Waters states that he is "aggrieved by the decision of the probate court, as he is the heir-at-law and the next of kin, and would have | been entitled to the estate but for the provision of the said pretended will. No other reason is given for the ap- peal.
 The amount of the estate Is not known, but is estimated at from s5o,0O0
 to $100,000 MT, Waters was not men
 tioned in the will. It is probable that
 undue influence will be alleged.
 Senator David Callahan, as executor
 of the estate of Mrs. Frank Willman,
 filed his account in the probate court
 yesterday. Attorney Isaac Wolfe, rep
 resenting MT. Callahan, asked for a
 continuance He stated that a settle
 ment was being made: that the &C., count had been filed and that by Sat urday everything would be amicably arranged A continuance until next Saturday at 1 o'clock was ordered At torney c. Fl. Webb was present, repre- senting William Nicely, bondsman for MT. Callahan.
 Senator Callahans account shows that the inventory was $4,700. Of this amount about $50 had been expended for legitimate expenses; a legacy of $1,- 900 has been paid Minnie K. Fischer legacy of $1 900 paid Lottie Kiskalt; a legacy of $1 900 paid Caroline Kiskalt as guardian for Matilda and Minnie Kiskalt, and the balance, $1,641, 30, paid Caroline Kiskalt as her portion of the estate.

 Attorney Thomson made statement | in which he said the Augur will devised which did not belong to the estate. The claim is made that the mother of the deceased was, at the time the will was drawn, possessed of the property which the will dis poses of.
 The witnesses to the will were the late Judge Samuel A. York, Dr. Will jam Hillhouse and Attorney George w. Robinson. s. A. York identified the sig nature of his father, the late Judge

MEMORIAL DAT RALLY.

Plans We'll Under Way by tho New Haven Sunday School Superintend-
 ents' Union.
 At the meeting of the New Haven Sunday School Superintendents union, held early in March the subject of the third Memorial day rally was thor ] oughly discussed and enthusiastically endorsed by most of those present. rep resenting nearly all of the schools of
 the city. Several schools that did not
 take part least year have voted to do
 so this year, and Indications point to a
 large increase in the interest shown by
 the schools, and to a largely increased
 attendance on the exercises of the day.
 This is as it should be, for surely no
 more appropriate observance could be
 arranged than the gathering in the churches of the young people of all de- nominations and of many nationalties for reverent patriotic services to be af- terward escorted to our historic Green by the men whose loyalty and valor pre- served us nation, and there by rallying, around the Stars and Stripes not sim- ply form a pleasing picture for the eye. but make manifest their loyalty to God and their country.
 Arrangements for the rally are rapidly being completed by the committee ap- pointed for that purpose Profiting by past experiences they are improving the details in many ways, such as hold ing the services earlier in the after noon and shortening the review, thus taking part instead of the whole of the afternoon. One very pleasing feat dress parade or the Boys bri- gade, in honor of the G. A. R.-will be 
 The expenses of the rally, which are are to be met this year by voluntary contributions, and although good subscriptions have already been made to the fund, more money will be needed to make it the success it ought to be. Anyone who is interested in this of the memorial charac- ter of the day, and who will back up hiS interest with his pocketbook, may have the pleasure of assisting by sending a pledge or contribution to the treasurer | of the committee, Robert l. Couch, at the National New Haven bank.

Arrangements Being Made to Celebrate
 With Fitting Observance.
 Norwalk is preparing to celebrate the 25Oth anniversary of it's founding in 1900. The arrangements are in charge of that vigorous young organization, the NorWalk Historical and Memorial Library association. On the 18th of June, this year, it is proposed to mark the sites of the two lots presented by Roger Ludlow to his sons with granite memorials. A public exhibition is to be held some time in the near future of photographs of local objects of interest buildings, scenery, historical relics, etc
 A plan is also under consideration for the construction of permanent build- ing of fireproof construction to be used as a safe Repository for valuable his- toric treasures Norwalk's example in this respect is a good one for other cities to follow. There is no way in which proper civic pride may be better awakened and cultivated, especially in the younger generation, than by the preservation and exhibition of histori- cal relics of the early days of a city or town.
 The Norwalk chapter of the Daugh- ters of the American Revolution are considering this matter, and plans are already we'll under way for work of this kind.

But it Could Not Escape Flagg's Strong
 Right Arm.
 George E. F1agg of West Hartford, a salesman for the Williams Root Beer company, was driving with a compan- ion in Gurleyville, near Wilimantic. one day last week. They espied d big black snake in the grass by the road side and alighted. The reptile squirm ed away across lots with Flagg and his companion in full cry on his trail, bowling with the enthusiasm of the chase
 As MT. Flagg recites the story, the snake made for some timber and squrmed into small pine tree, coiling at the Junction of a limb with the trunk and hissing defiance at his ene- my below. The two men bombarded him with sticks and stones, but in vain. Flagg's friend finally climbed into the tree short distance and shook it. dislodging the reptile, which was dispatched by Flagg on the ground. The snake was nearly five feet in length This story, MT. Flagg says, he can prove and he is willing to make his affidavit t--Hartford Times.
