Il Is to be noted that in the reports OK
the races at the Eastern Maine Fair at

Maine, where gambling of every kind Is

In reply to the perhaps Incorporate

are no unlicensed persons selling liquor
In that city. In opposition TO that We
have the facts as stated in q recent issue
of the Champion Of Fair Play "a liquor
trade journal), tina. the city OF Chicago
has licensed SlS5 saloons, and the United

from over $4,000 persons who have
sworn that they are engaged In the sale

FIGHT FOR THE EDDY TAX.
Massachusetts and New Hampshire
Claimants for Tariff on Estate.

Poston.-A statement of Attorney
General James NJ Swifts reasons for
appealing from a decree of the Suf-
folk county probate court, allowing,
as a foreign will, a copy Of the will
of Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy, of which
the courts of New Hampshire have
already taken jurisdiction, was fined
I'm the supreme court.
Swift contends that Mrs. Eddy was
not resident of Concord. New Hamp-
shire, at the time of her death, but
actually resided in Newton, Mass. For
this reason he claims the probate
court had no jurisdiction of the mat
ter and that proceedings should have
been held in Middlesex county.
The purpose of the attorney-general
in attempting to show that the domi-
cie of Mrs. Eddy was in Massachu-
setts and not in New Hampshire is
that Massachusetts may get the ben
eft of the inheritance tax on nearly
$3.OOO,0OO claimed by New Hamp'
shire.

Woodbury., N. IA donkey owned

Sheriff Wilson on a writ of replevin
obtained by the owner which was
served on William Joyce, the pound
keeper, who held the animal This
followed an attempted hearing before

solicitor, but he wanted nothing to
do with the case.
Other lawyers are into it, however
and the end is not yet, SO it's said.
The donkey was taken into the mag

For Three Days Before Death.

Augusta, Ga.-After suffering par
oxysma, the most excruciating pain
and having convulsions one after an

II is the first case in the history of

one of the very few cases in this coun.
try.
Selby and his wife live at the cor
ner of Kollock and South Boundary
streets where they keep a neighbor-
hood grocery. Six weeks ago the
husband took a little fox terrier dog
into his store. short time after the
dog began to stay with Mr.. and Mrs.
Selby it seemed to be i'll and refused
To eat. one day Mrs. Selby was try
/ ing to get it to eat and it bit her on
the hand. The next day it bit her
husband The dog soon after died
and was buried by the Selbys, al
though neither man nor wife thought
/ that It had the rabies.
His wife is badly frightened and
believes that she will be attacked by
! hy-lrophobia also 1t is probable that
she will be sent to a Pasteur institute.

Zenship Papers.

Seattle, Wash.-Thomas Joliff, a
miner of Ronton, in Judge A. w. Fra
ter's room in the superior court, twice
made the assertion that he would
obey his union rather than the courts
in a strike. When Judge Frater said
that he could not admit Joliff, who
was born in England, to citizenship
the applicant said he had changed
his mind and would give the courts
the preference. But Judge Frater
said that he would have to wait until
September, anyhow. In the mean
time, his case will be investigated.
