Struck by Car at crossino.

About 5.30 o'clock Thursday after noon a horse and wagon owned and driven by Max Rabinovitch was struck by electric car No. 132, due at the Taft vile postoff1ce at 5.35 o'clock, on Nor wich avenue at the point where the car tracks cross from one side of the road to the other, just north of the city line MT. RabinoYitch had been to Baltic and was returning to Norwich when the accident happened He was just cross- ing the tracks when the car bore down upon him and struck the wagon side ways. MT. Rabinovitch was thrown from the seat to the road and received a, number of bruises on one side, but no bones were broken. The horse was knocked down and received a sprained right hind leg as the result. The wag- on, which was a covered one, was quite extensively damaged. one side being stove in, the shafts broken, the dash board smashed, and one wheel demol- ished. It is said that the car was run ming quite slowly, as is usual at this point in the line, and was quickly brought to a stop, but not before it had struck the wagon.
 MT. Rahinovitch did not at the time realize his injuries, and, although limp ing badly, he led hos horse from the scene of the accident to the store and then took a car to his home, 246 West Main street. On reaching home he was attended by Dr. Higgins.

PROBATE ASSEMBLY
 DISCUSSED NEW LEGISLATION.
Probate Judges at Hartford Meeting Favored Representative Healy's Bill.

A large number of the members were present at the regular meeting of the Connecticut probate assembly held this week in the state library building at Hartford The principal business was a discussion of the new laws passed by the last legislature af- fecting the procedure of the various probate courts. Judge l.. P. Waldo Marvin, the president, presided.
 In opening the meeting President Marvin said that a number of the members living in the more remote sections of the state had found it diff f1cult to attend the meeting in Hart ford, and they would appreciate meetings held in other sections of the state. He then read from a circular, prepared by the state treasurer in the form of a commentary on chapter 231 of the public acts of 1913, which is an act concerning the taxation of suc- cession, inheritance, gifts of real or personal property to take effect at death, legacies and devices Treasurer l.. s. Roberts called attention to a change in the law by which non-resi- dents are now exempted from the tax, except on tangible property held with in the state. This was not to be con- strued as money, deposits in banks, shares of stock, bonds, notes, credits, evidences of debt, or choses in action of any description.
 Judge Marvin said that the state treasurer was preparing forms to be furnished later to every probate judge, bearing on the method of procedure to be followed under the new law
 The state treasurer also called at tention to the fact that unless the tax was duly paid the property conveyed remained subject to a lien in favor of the state, for the collection of which, with interest at per cent, the state could proceed against the property at any time.
 The act applies only to the estates of persons who have died on or before August l, 1913, and will go into effect February 1, 1914
 Senator Edwin R. Kelsey of Branford spoke of the manner in which a law was passed through the last general assembly, largely through the efforts of Representative Frank F. Healy, house chairman of the judiciary com mittee, which provided for a minimum fee of $10 allowed probate judges for the settlement of estates of less than $1 900. Senator Kelsey, who is judge of probate, favored a law by the next legislature to repeal this law, his con tention being that the present law often compels a probate judge to set tie an estate requiring perhaps $40 worth of work. with a remuneration of $10. Other members present report ed that they settled estates of this size in the case of poor families for no con- side~ation whatsoever. The sentiment of those present, however, favored the Healy bill.

ON LONG CRUISE.
Boston Man and His Wife Reach New
 London in Schooner DiabIesse.


 The two -masted auxiliary schooner Diablesse arrived in port at New Lon don, Wednesday on a two year cruise. She has aboard her own designer, Frederic A. Fengar of Boston, Mrs, F'enger, who has shipped as first mate, and a hired hand. The Diablesse has been a month on the way from Bos- ton and will be several months in get ting south as her owner is taking his leisure and can pick out sailing wealth CT.
 The schooner will go from New Lon don to Norfolk, Va, enter the Dismal Swamp and take the inside waterway to Florida waters. There she will be- gin a cruise among the islands of the tropics, which MT. Fenger explored a few years ago in the canoe Yakaboo in a six months cruise of 800 miles. The Yakaboo, meaning Danish for Goodbye. has been succeeded in MT. Fenger's affections by the Diablesse, meaning She Devil. The new schoon- CT is built along the lines of the mack ereI catcher and has attracted atten- ton today as she lies over the flats below the custom house.
 When the Diablesse rides at an- chor passing under her stern the click of typewriter keys may be heard. MT Fenger, besides being a yacht design CT, is a magazine writer and is bent on accommodating material for stories and technical articles. He is notuyet 30 years old. Both he and Mrs. Fen ger are enthusiastic over the pros poets for an interesting trip.
 The Diablesse was formerly the Del na- Bought from Arthur Merritts estate she was rebuilt after a design by MT Fenger. Her masts were cut down, to give her better balance and a 15 horsepower Sagamore motor was installed
 From Beauforto. N. C., the Diablesse will start an 1,S00 mile cruise to Trin- idad and then MT. Fenger will spend most of his time under guidance of native pilots among the islands.

WAS FATALLY INJURED
 WHEN HIT BY ENGINE
Henry E. Holmes, Central Vermont Foreman, Found Beside Tracks at New London.

Henry E. Holmes of 432 Williams street, New London, foreman of bridges and buildings for the southern division of the Central Vermont rail- way, with offices in East New London, died at the Memorial hospital there Wednesday night as the result of in juries received in the evening by being struck by train near Harrison street. The Injuries which caused his death were a fracture at the base of the skull and punctures of the lungs by broken ribs
 Holmes was found lying beside the main line track of the company at a point few feet north of the Harri- son street crossing. It Is supposed that he was walking beside the track when the 5.25 passenger train from the union station came along. Holmes or was not quick enough in getting out of the way,
 Groans were heard by persons chancing to pass near the spot and an investigation showed Holmes beside the track and bleeding freely from wound on the head. One of the first persons to reach him was Capt Sam uel Crocker, who was on the way to his boat, the freighter New York, in East New London.
 At the hospital an examination showed a serious fracture of the skull,
 
 the lungs had been punctured by frac- tured ribs. It was evident that Holmes was beyond human aid. However, ev- erything possible under the circum- stances was done, but the injured man died about 10 o'clock without having regained consciousness.
 So far as could be ascertained no one saw the accident. General Agent McMahon went over the scene Thurs day morning and interviewed employees of the company and clerks in Mr. Holmes office, but none had seen the accident or knew the circumstances. MT. Holmes left the office which is just south of the Harrison street crossing, shortly before the passenger train which is supposed to have struck him was due to pass. It is supposed that he started up the track to go to the work car on a siding in the yard to give his men instructions for Thurs days work. While walking along the track he was struck by the breast beam of the engine. Along the side of the track there is a stone wall, and it is probable that he was thrown against the wall with such violence as to fracture the skull.
 As soon as the office of Superintend- ent McCraw was notified of the acci- dent and it was learned that Holmes was probably struck by the 5.25 pas senger train, communication by tele- phone was established with Engineer Hinchey, who was at the throttle of the engine attached to the train, at Norwich Engineer Hinchey disclaim- ed any knowledge of having struck anyone and said that he knew nothing about the accident.
 MT. Holmes was about 50 years of age and is survived by his widow and one son. He has been in the employ of the Central Vermont railway for about 25 years, the greater portion of that time living in New London. A brother. Frank Holmes, is day fore man of the Long wharf of the com pany in East New London.

MIla Case of Smallpox Discovered on Dion Street-House Occupied by Raymond Girard Quarantined.

Dr. George H. Thompson has discov- cred a mild case of smallpox in the Dion block, on Dion street, and the house was quarantined Thursday morning. The patient, Raymond Cir ard, has been ill for the past two weeks. and it was on complaint of the neighbors, who suspected that the man had the disease, that Dr. Thompson made the investigation.

Mir Cir ard is employed by Schwartz Bros. of Norwich as a commission agent but he had not been working since he was taken ill. There are several children In the family, one of whom attends the Sacred Heart school All are being kept under observation, and unless they develop the disease it is not thought necessary to close the school
