The will contest begun by the widow OF

was predicted by the members OF the In

When James Donohoe, the head OF the

be worth something like 100000, and he
was taxed in the town OF Cranston for
over $4,000 on real estate alone.
Yesterday the property in the hamlet or

city, and for the handsome residence and
several barns, and whole outnt or

EAST PROVIDENCE

A few of the law-abiding store keepers
are very much sggrieved and say that they
have a good sized kick against the In
ternsl Revenue Department, for some
time ago all dealers were notified that IL
they handled tobacco in any form they
must do so but by selling from the origi-
nal package. Now they find quite a num-
ber who have not compiled W the law,
and they who have don't feel as IL IT
is hardly fair for them to do so. The
main cause OF the conflict IL that they
must invest a much larger amount of
capital TO purchase their tobbaco in un-
broken packages than would be neces-
sary could they purchase n sufficient
quantity for few days. One dealer
said before he received the notice that
he did not have more than $40 invested
in tobacco, and now he has nearly 800.
And the increased investment cuts I'm to
the profits.
Annie Smith, 81 years old. was sent TO
the work house this morning. as she was
unable 20 pay a fine OF 50 and costs for
being drunk. She said she had been I'm
Attleboro, and was out OF work. The
chief offered 20 get her a joh but she
preferred the state work house.

A LIVELY Time.

Children, but They Were
Not Very Much Hurt.

A horse attached to q wagon belonging
to A. S. Largenter ran away yesterday

drive away II rose up on the other end,
throw him over the wheel. and swinging
wildly around. flung OF some empty boxes
upon him.
This startled the horse. and Il leapec
forward and ran through Laura and Mel
rose streets, to Potters avenue. and then
to Elmwood avenue.
There IL struck t3-ysar-old Adam Gray,
who was on his bicycle, and threw him
on, but merely shook him up little.
Then II struck 10-yesr-old Silva Corp,
upso otting. but only frightening her.
The horse then smashed into another
wagon. whose driver is also unknown
TO the police OF the Seventh station.
From the resultant tangle of harnesses
and shafts, Largenters horse freed IT,
self and raced 10 Potter's avenue again,
where William Neville secured Il.
Largenters wagon was badly wrecked.
His horse was returned 70 him.

refused and he went away.
Two years later he came again. He
bought the girl a lot of new clothes.

Frisco. I'm pretty well off and can give
you good home"
NO." she said. MY heart is here"
And he left for the last time. without
telling her how rich he really was.
He must have felt piqued by here re-

bulk OF his fortune TO his brother, Cor

ened. and he made another will, leaving
his fortune TO the far away daughter.
Mary married Charles Taylor in 1853
and they went TO live in Brooklyn with
the aunt, who refused to let her go away.
Her life has been uneventful.
Four children came, and she worked
