Wouldn't Let Her Relatives Take
 Care of Her.
 New York. Aug 22-A narrow band of black ribbon tied to the door bell of the old fashioned ramshackle tene- ment at I43 Third avenue told yes terday of the death of old Mrs Mary kull, the owner of the house. She died on rags. in a dilapidated bed, sur rounded by broken furniture, bare walls. with cobwebs overhead and ev- idences of poverty everywhere. Yet she was worth nearly S100,0OO.
 Many years ago Mary Mang. then about + years old, came to this cOun- try from the university town of Tep- litz in Austria. She was a good look ing young woman and she won the heart of Joseph Kull. director of the old Bulls Head bank. They were married in the old Lutheran church in Ann street.
 For over two score and ten years Mrs Kull lived happily with her hus- band in West Twenty-third street, then a fashionable section of the city. Twenty-three years ago Mir kull died. Having neither children nor near rel atives Mrs Kull lived alone and soon became known as miser.
 Attention was called to the. woman and her ways in February, when she appeared in the Yorkville police court against a man named Weber. a teD- ant in her house. He was charged with assaulting her. Mrs Kull's con- dition was such that she was remov- cd to the home of her cousin. Mrs Carl Helm of 3Ga East Forty-eighth street. IL was then that the police examined her rooms As result of the inspection the Health department was notified. In the junk and trash ordered to he removed S9.nn was found secreted in pillows. mattresses and cans
 A niece. Miss Susan Mang. of 2i3s IariIlard avenue. The Bronx. tried to care for the old woman. hut she in- sisted upon living alone in her house. Then Mrs Kull added collection of cats to her household effects. AS the cats increased the tenants departed. untiI the old woman was left alone. She imagined that she had many more years to live and refused 10 make will Her property. which consists of tenements and cash m hank. goes to some five nepbews and nieces and a cousin.

Inmate of Asylum Can't Be Aroused
 and is Gradually Dying.
 Rutland, Vt. Aug 22-Baff1ing all attempts of physicians to awaken him John l.. Moore, aged twenty.six years. son of a wellto-do farmer of Con- cord, Vt, has slept steadily for 100 days at the Waterbury Insane Asy- lum.
 Since May 13 it has been impossible to arouse the sleeper. though occas- ionally he mutters some incoherent word. When Moore went to the insti- tuition he weighed 160. now it is esti- mated that his weight is about 11O. He is very weak, but may live for many days yet.
 Moore did his usual work about the farm until the last of April when his mind began to wander and. if left long alone, he would go to asleep. He was taken back to the Waterbury asylum about May 1. and appeared to become more and more stupid un- til his long sleep began. When small boy Moore got bad fall. striking on his head. He showed only temporary injuries at the time but the physi- clans think that this may have con- tributed to his present condition.

HORSES BURNED
Dr.. Norton Crinnell's Outbuildinfs
 Destroyed by an lncendia1y.

Milford, Aug 22-A disastrous fire occurred at Beaver Brook farm, the home of Dr Morton Grinnell, early Sunday morning, at which time the stables with the barn was completely destroyed by fire. The loss is esti- mated to be between SS,OOO and S10,- GOO.
 The fire was first discovered by sev- eral young men returning from Bridge port on the Adams express, which ar rives shortly after 12 o'clock, and an alarm was quickly sounded from Are tic Engine company, to which there was quick response. The sky was lighted up for many miles around. and from the nature of the blaze it would appear that it had been burning inside for some time. Six valuable horses. 60 tons of hay, several wagons. and carriages were destroyed. together with most of the farming implements.
 The fire was evidently the work of an incendiary. One fortunate circum- stance connected with the fire was that all the COWS were in the pasture, and therefore none of the cattle were burned.
 Among the horses burned were q pair of bays. valued at nearly $2.000. The cause of the fire is unknown. The loss, it is said, is covered by insur- ance.
 In 1897 there was a fire in the cQme place, when the entire barn and con- tents were burned, and the cause of that fire is still mystery.
 The Arctic Engine company could do little toward saving the barn, but after locating water supply succeed ed in saving the windmill and other outbuildings.
 Dr Grinnell. the owner, would say nothing yesterday morning concerning the fire further than he believed with out doubt it was caused by an enemy, although he did not suppose he had one, in the entire township. ..,

THE hAER HEARING
Took Place This nsrnint and VIII
 DS Rssumsd To.msrrov.

The hearing on the claims against the estate of the late Susan Maer took place this forenoon before Commis- sioners Lawlor and McGrath in the district court room. The claims are as follows:
 St Vincent De Paul society, $191 cash. for rent: Thomas F. Lunny, money loaned. $46S. with interest $40, since 1895; Mrs Bridget Woods, 33.JO, board, attendance, hack hire and washing body after death. Mrs Agnes Munson, $52.5O. for attendance and cOmbing Mrs Maer's hair since 1890 to 1904: Miss Frances Hayes, $21 for dressmaking; R. b. Pierpont, $4.13, loans; city of Waterbury, $321.22. rent; Bergin & Sons. undertakers, $6250. funeral: l. A. Spencer, $2125O. rent
 It was not known until after her death that Mrs Maer had cent in the world. Then it was disclosed that she had in bank S1,321.67. The most interesting testimony was that given regarding the Lunny claim. Mir Lunny testified that his mother used to give Mrs Maer about S1 week and she kind of exacted promise from him TO keep it up after her death. This $l week was paid in two installments of fifty cents each. Sometimes Mrs Maer would not be able to come for 1t on account of illness and on these occa. sions the money was either sent to her by his daughter or his clerk, Miss Shanley, or it was kept for her until the following week when she was giv. en double the sum.
 MT Lunny did not have the woman insured and he did not benefit in any way by her death. She used to ire. quently say that if she survived all old uncle living in Ireland she would be rich and she would make those, who assisted her rich also. But ne' never paid any attention to such talk. He considered it only an old womans fancy.
 Miss Lunny and Miss Shanley bore out this testimony. and added that be- sides the money the woman was alst provided with groceries and little deli cacies occasionally.
 I. 4. Spencer. her landlord. aud Mrs Agnes Munson. her friend. testr fled that they often heard Mrs Marr say she had received fifty cents from Mir Lunny, but never one dollar.
 On that point. Attorney Lyncn. rep resenting Mir Lunny. claimed that it was quite the thing for such woman as Mrs Maer to do under the circum- stances. Knowing she owed Sl week to Mir Spencer for rent. it was only natural that she would not admit having received dollar from any body.
 Mir Lunny in closing his testimony said he never kept account of the money he gave Mrs Maer. but charged it up as S52 year for charity.
 The hearing will he resumed to- morrow to hear Miss Frances hayes testimony regarding her claim Of sll for dresses.

POLITICAL POINTERS.
Hill Plain Residents Want . Repre-.
 sen tativs Among Aldsrmsn.

Electors of the First district who reside in Mill Plain are talking of suggesting to the republicans of that district that one of the aldermen be chosen from that part of the town. They claim that it is growing pnrt of the community and feel that It's in- terests would be better served if they had an aldermen from there than it is likely to be when there is nobody con- lected with the city government who fully understands the needs of the people. The names of William Atkin- son and James Stovel have been men, tioned as probable candidates for the position. If the republicans fail to do this it might not be bad plan for the democrats to put a man from that section on their ticket. that is proyid- ed a good democrat can be found in that place. and from all accounts there are few such citizens in Mill Plain.

The scrap will be fought out at the primaries and some of the knowing ones claim that when the ballots are counted Carter will be in the asceDdancy. Other ridi- cule this idea and feel confident that Larkin will win hands down.
