"Millions for the contractors, but
not one cent for the widows" Is the
inscription on a coin, dated 1868,
which was received under peculiar
circumstances BY George A. Lee OF
this city few days ago. The piece
is apparently Of a restricted issue,
as none Of the many persons TO
whom it has been submitted for in
spection ever saw It's like. IL was
accompanied BY letter mailed from
Detroit and signed Howard Hen
zler, which informed the recipient
that the coin was given him as q
pocket piece twenty-five years age
in Raleigh, s. c., by the long since
deceased father of Mr.. Lee. The
epistle concludes with the hope tha'
"the son Of my benefactor Of long
years ago may enjoy the good for
tune that has been mine since Its
acquisition. ."-Philadelphia Record

The peak Of Apo, huge volcanic
mountain in the center Of the island
of Mindanao, has been added TO the
category OF mountains remarkable
for possessing animal species pc
culiar TO themselves and differing
from those of the surrounding low

as the result Of a months examina-
tion of Apo that most Of the spe-
cies and several of the genera col
lected on Its higher portions are new
to science. 1t has added three gen.

TO the list of birds inhabiting the

HINTS ON THE CHOOSING OF EASTER
 CLOTHES AND FlXINGs.
 Men may take unto themselves wider latitude in the choosing of Spring clothing than they have been able to do in long time; for those who decree the colors of mems apparel have put forth many novel combinations of stripes, plaids and squares on light shades of gray, brown, blue and green ish mixtures. The showing of new spring suits in these attractive new fabrlcs is attracting many hundreds of men to Meigs & @; s big store these last few days before Easter. Men who stick to black for dress-up occasions will find the display of fast-black, all wool suits at Meigs & Co.'S satisfying in it's big range of sizes and it's fidelity to style changes. In the realm of spring overcoats, the tan covert has come back with a strong bid for re- newed favor, while the knee-length coat has shed it's radical style-marks and clings to the dignified Chesterfield model. In the latter one may choose from handsome gray mixtures, Oxford and black. Meigs & Go. s prepara tions | for the Easter rush involve the great est stocks of hats, shoesA and furnish | which selections should be made as early as possible. In the Boys Annex | the biggest stocks of reliable clothes l for boys Meigs & Go. have ever shown,
 offer splendid choice in suits, reefers, i overcoats, blouses, shirts, headwear
 and shoes. Visit Meigs & Co., s big store in Bridgeport at your earliest op- portunity, if you would choose your | Easter outfit wisely.

SETTLEMENT EFFECTED
IN THE EMILY NORTHROP WILL CON.
 TEST

Samuel J. BOtSford and Virgil Dib- ble, executors of the will of the late Emily Northrop, have petiticned the probate court for authority to com promise and compound certain claims against the estate. It will be recalled that there was contest over the will of Mrs Northrop in the probate court here about year ago, which lasted number of days, the contest being made by Mrs Grace Beers and sister, Mrs Lillian Dibble of Bethel. The result was the admission to probate of the will by the probate court, from which two appeals were taken to the Superior court. Later other parties, including Charles B. Blakeman and wife, presented claims against the es- tate for services. These the executors refused to pay, which resulted in suits. It appears upon the petition that all of the parties have shown their good sense by getting together and agreeing upon an amicable adjustment of the case, which, if approved of by the pro-
 bate court, can be carried into effect.
 The many friends of the contestants will be pleased to know that they have succeeded in effecting a settlement which, it is hoped, is to their advan- tage, rather than to carry on long and
 tedious litigation in the courts. If the
 court approves of the agreement the will is to be sustained.
