FIGHT FOR GILMAN MILLIONS
HEARING IN BRIDGEPORT PRO- BATE COURT YESTERDAY.
Application of Edward $. Percivai an" Edward l.. Norton for Appointment as Executors Denied-COnnectfcut Residence of the Deceased Admitted by the Full Blood Relations.

the Full biOOu
 Bridgeport, March 1S.--After pro- longed hearing in the probate court, in which all of the heirs of full blood of the late millionaire, George F. Gilman, were represented by counsel, Judge Nobbs tonight denied the application of Edward s. Percival and Edward l.. Norton of New York city, for the ap- pointment as executors of the dead mans estate.
 The claims of Mrs. Helen Hall, who has been at once the most picturesque and most mysterious feature of the case, formed no part of the proceedings, nor indeed were they once mentioned, the entire controversy being on the question of an administrator
 The heirs of half blood as well were not participants in the hearing, for while Messrs. Mccormack & Crawford of New York; who were counsel for the half blood relations in the proceedings over the recent appointment of New York administrator, appeared to-day for MT. Percival and MT. Norton, they distinctly disclaimed a connection of the half blood heirs with the present question and admitted in their petition the Connecticut residence of the deceas- ed, which of necessity shut out the half blood relations from a share in the Connecticut estate.
 The contest, therefore, was one be- tween the two factions of the full-blood heirs. As such, it lacked in a large degree the sensational features which 1t had been expected 1t would assume for reference to the half brothers of the deceased, whose interest centers in the question of domicile, was precluded by the initial admission that MT. Gilman was a resident of Connecticut.
 In connection with the appointment of Messrs Norton and Percival, how ever, frequent mention was, made of the fact that they have been associated with Theophius and Frazer Gilman, and this association, while denied with reference to the proceedings in Con necticut, was often argued asa reason why they should not receive the ap- pointmept. Indeed, Judge Nobbs in his decision made particular reference to this relation as the basis of the contest between the two factions, and declined to make the appointment largely on the grounds that an agreement of the heirs should be obtained. No such agreement

| Held at the TOnttne Last Night-Bril-
 liant Speakers, Irish Wit and Good joyable-Professor Phelps Made Star Hit of the Evening.
 The twenty-fourth annual banquet
 of the Knights of St. Patrick held last
 night at the Tontine hotel showed in
 every respect what a successful ban quet ought to be. Good eating and good
 speaking out-vied each other through
 out the evening, and the efforts of Mine
 Host White for the material comfort and enjoyment of the 200 or more guests were forgotten only during the progress of the toasts which were so brilliant as fairly to grace this occasion of the celebration of St. Patrick's day. Through it all the tuneful hearty Irish melodies and popular airs rendered by Fichtrs orchestra, the lights and flow- CTS and bright decorations made of the national colors of America and Ireland, and above all the good company and prevailing good fellowship united to make the occasion enjoyable and mem- orable. Great credit in the successful mana agement of the affair belongs to the banquet committee, Thomas I. Kinney, James J. Kennedy and Edward J. Mori- arty.
 President Daniel Colwell, with the motto Welcome Ever Smiles in a few well chosen words opened the speech making part of the programme, and read greetings sent by the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick at their twentieth annualS banquet held last night. He then introduced the toastmaster of the evening" Attorney James B.

 Through special purchase of about 5000 yards of new, clean, ribbons, we are enabled to give you the most remarkable a day.
 The purchase includes several lots-all new and desirable goods-and the price in each in stance represents just little more than half what they would be sold for if bought at regular prices.
 Do not allow the low prices to engender the idea that they are too small to represent good value. To guard against such an imagina- ton, we quote regular selling prices, which you must know-f a patron of these stores-are al- ways reasonable in the extreme.

4 BOY. DRAGGED 70 DEATH
Fourteen Year Old Melvin Smith OF
Steele Dragged to Death Yester-
. day by a Horse.
Fastened a Picket Rope About His
Wrist and Horse Ran Away and
y Killed the Boy.

A sad accident occurred at Steele
yesterday in which Melvin Smith, the
fourteen year old son Of Edwin Smith,
a we'll known resident Of that place,
lost his life. The boy went out in the
afternoon to bring in a horse, and fas-
tened the picket rope about his wrist,
in order to hold the horse. The boy
had been after the horse in the morn
ing and it had gotten away from him
and he made the rope fast to avoid a
repetition of his mornings experience.
The horse started to run, threw the lad
off his feet, and the rope being fast to
the boy, he was dragged some distance.
His skull was crushed at the back of
his head, and although neighbors ran
out and caught the horse as soon as
it was possible to do so, the boy was
dead when the animal was stopped.
The accident occurred in sight of the
house, and of the boys mother. The
boy was we'll known in the vicinity
and his death was the cause of general
sadness.

GOVERNOR WHITE A LOSER.

Valley City Times-Record: At Litch-
vile L. c. Bordwell's fine new machin-
cry warehouse was wrecked and the
buildings recently erected on Cover
nor Whites farm were blown down.
Mr.. Aurenhagen and Mr.. Peterson,
both of whom live near Litchville, are
said to have had their barns blown
down. The queerest freak played by
the wind was at Frank Stacks place,
two miles northwest of the city, where
a new granary 20x60 in size was liter
ally torn to pieces. A part of it was
left IN the barn roof and the balance
was carried yer a grove Of trees and
left on the further side of the road.
None of the trees were injured. A
barn at Joe Tullius' place was blown
and a fine large horse killed.

George Schwab, a well known Ger

buying a bottle Of it for his wife, who
for eight weeks had suffered with the
most terrible pains in her back and
could get no relief. He says: "After

my wife said to me- T feel as though

she could again take up her household

NEW SCIENTIFIC PROCESS.

A PREPARATION DISCOVERED
THAT WILL DESTROY THE DAN
DRUFF GERM.
For some time it has been known
that dandruff is caused by a germ that
digs UP the scalp into little white
fakes, and sapping the vitality of the
hair at the root, causes falling hair,
and, of course, finally badness. For
years there have been all kinds of hair
stimulants and scalp tonlcs on the
market, but there has been no per-
manent cure for dandruff until the dis
covery of a preparation called New
BROS Herpicide, which destroys the
dandruff germ. Destroy the cause,
the effect will cease to exist. Kill
the dandruff germ and you'll have no
%dandruff, no itching scalp, no falling
hair. ."'&~

FREAKS OF TILE STORM.

jamestown Alert: Wilbur Default
and Dan Sacho have returned from a
three days trip in the southern part
of Stutsman county, and in LaMoure,
Barnes and Ransom counties, looking
up the results of the storm of Monday
last. At least 20 barns we're found to
be demolished and the storm increased
in violence at it went eastward. At
Litchville in Barnes county a large
machinery house was blown down and
a number of new buggies ruined, and
the agent of the company, who lived
overhead, had all he could do to escape
with his life. The barns destroyed
r mostly large ones. There were
many sheds and smaller buildings torn
away and scattered to the winds.
The crops, however, in that part of
the four counties visited are uninjured
and the farmers feel that they can bet
ter afford to lose barns than crops.
Wheat is about two feet high and
heading out and the yield promises to
be immense. ~.*s
Notwithstanding the loss of buildings
there was no loss of life in the entire
country over which the storm ragged,
and this was owing to the early hour
in the morning few people being abroad
at that time. Had the tornado oc-
CURED later in the day there would,
no doubt, have been a great injury to
many persons and loss of life.
One OF the freaks of the storm was
the r1oving of stoves. Both kitchen
stoves in the McGinnis house and in
the Barrett house, a mile north, were
lifted bodily and carried twenty feet
Or more. The stove at the former
place was carried into the we'll house
and the kitchen dishes scattered all
over the, barn yard, while a supply OF
groceries was also distributed to the
winds. Coffee, broken furniture and
all sorts of kitchen utensils are to be
e in the McGinnis yard.
