For Annual Track Event to be Held at Yale Field on Saturday.
 The large number of prominent en- tries already received assure the suc- cess of the Interscholastfc track meet to be held at Yale Field on Saturday. AL though several large schools have not entered teams this year, the quality of the meet promises to equal if not ex- ceed that of previous years. .'.
 Worcester academy, St. Paul's school, Hill school and Mercersburg academy, will send teams of over twenty men each, and it is probable that the great est rivalry will be between these four teams. Lawrenceyille will also be well represented. Andovsr and Exeter will not send regular teams on account of scholastic conditions, but individual competitors may be entered. ...i
 Practically all the point winners in the Interscholastic meets which have already been held are entered, including Risley of Mercersbtrg, who has done twenty-two fest in the broad jump and six feet in the high jump. ;.l
 Other prominent entries are F. Herr shoff of Hill school in the hammer throw; H. Andrews of Lawrencsville, who holds the Interscholastic record in the shot put and hammer throw, and Jessup of SSt. Paurs school in the one hundred and two hundred yard dashes.

HIDDEN WEALTH.

Deceased Widow Had Ten Thousand
 Dollars Hidden Away.
 Laura A. Ball, widow of John s. Ball, who died a few weeks ago at 67 Foote street, left an estate that has been in- ventoried at $11,S79. The appraisers filed their report yesterday morning in the probate court, and the estate is al- most entirely represented in personal property. The extent of Mrs. Balls es- tate was a surprise to her neighbors. She lived an unostentatious life and was frugal. After hsr death there was a disagreement over the appointment of an administrator, a number of nephews and nieces who reside on Long Island being unable to agree upon any one to act as administrator of the estate, so the probate court appointed Judge Ja- cob R. Ullman.
 After Mrs Balls death a search of the house OH Foote street was made, and this revealed gilt-edge securities hidden in secret placss under the car pet and other unsuspected places in the.
