ALL TO LIVE IN A PALACE.
The Peculiar Provisions of Peter
BriYhum's WILL

Boston, July 10.-It isn't every family
that is expected to live in 50 ,OO0, 900 pal
ace but that is the fate of the Brighams
of Massachusetts, the will OF Peter Brig
ham, who made his millions in oysters in
Boston, is carried out Peter Brigham died
here six years ago. He willed his wealth
in such manner that a home for the de-
scendents of Thomas Brigham should be
built when the sum bequeathed lad,
through interest and otherwise, grown to
100000. Soon this amount will have
been attained.
Most of the Brighams of Massachusetts,
are in Worcester county. Generally speak
ing they think that Peter Brigham would
have done better by them had he willed
each a stipulated portion of his millions.
But l suppose Peter meant well, and SO
We must abide by the WILL" said one of
the Brighams yesterday
Peter Brigham was not only one OF the
richest men in his part of the State, but
he owned the finest private collection OF
Indian relics IN the United States.
When Thomas Brigham came to Amer
ica from England in 1885, and settled in
Cambridge, he began collecting Indian rel
les. Many were the fights the Brighams
had with the Indians.
Today there are descendants of the Brig
hams in nearly every town in Worcester
county. The majority, however, are to be
found in Westboro and Marlboro, and in
these towns the direct descendants live.
1t isn't at all likely that the Bay State
Brighams will forsake their various homes
and go to live under the roof of the Bos-
ton palace as one great family. What is
more probable is that the Brigham home
will become a refuge for the INDECENT and
ailing members of the Brigham family.
THE case is absolutely without paral-
Iel." said one of the Brighams who was in
Boston yesterday "A $4,000. 900 palace is
all right in its way, but we can't eat it,
and eat we must to live. l guess the build
ing will become a home for the needy
Brighams for the well and moneyed Brig
hams are pretty well able to take care OF

STEWART CASTLE FOR SALE.
The Old Man Pushed for Money.

A private letter received by the edi-
tor of this paper from friend who was
recently in Washington, D. c., states
that the famous Stewart Castle, the
magnificent home Of Senator Stewart
on Dupont Circle, has been placed in
the hands of two or three real estate
agents and Is plastered over with "For
Sale" notices. Coupled with the an
nouncement that he has disposed OF the
Silver Knight Watchman, which has
just been made public, this news is full
OF significance. 1t means either that
Stewart has given UP all hope ofre-elec-
ton, or that the Southern Pacific has
refused to put up" another $50, 900 Of
corruption money in his behalf and he
has got to pay the Chinns and Nagles
out OF his own pocket.

MORE COUNTY FINANCES.

II has developed since the last meet
ing of tho Commissioners, that tho de-
felt in the revenues OF the county is not
quite so large as we predicted in our
issue OF Decemb ber 22nd. The transfer
of certain funds and large license re-
ceipts enabled the Auditor to issue war
rants for nearly all bills allowed up to
October lst. Had 1t not been for the
semi-annual payment law, that allows
50, 54l Al to go unpaid until next June,
payment could have been made nearly,
II not quite to December lst, leaving
only one month in arrears.
Although the current expenses OF the
county are getting little behind, the
reduction OF her bonded and floating
debt goes steadily on. This year per
cent bonds to the value OF $500 have
been called in, making total reduc-
tion since 1890 OF Sl4, 300, besides about
s10, 900 of Courthouse bonds. The
amount OF bonds now outstanding after
the present redemption is s55, 100.
As will be seen in the Commissioners
proceedings, script TO the amount OF
81, 63S. 80 Was also redeemed this year,
making total redemption since 1890 OF
s5l, l40. Though some script is issued
each year, the amount outstanding is
gradually diminishing and now amounts
appros osimately to $40, le6, according to
the estimate OF County Auditor Cara
CHAN. Exact figures cannot be OBJ
tanned on account of the destruction Of
the records In the Courthouse fire al

Licences have afforded the county
considerab ble revenue during the pas
year. having amounted TO about ", 6Ol

The Gold Produc tion.

Hon. George E. Roberts, the Director
OF the Mint, has recently received from
the officials and agents of the bureau,
the preliminary estimates upon the pro-
duction of gold in the several produc-

These estimates, although subject to
revision, are deemed to be approx
mately correct. Nearly all ofthe States
show an increased production. Colo
rado maintains and increases its lead by
a larger addition to its product than in
any previous yesr. The produci in
California was considerably reduced by
prevailing drought, which affected the
output OF the placers, but the increase
from lode mining has slightly more than
Offset this reduction.
