 rope has still today one utterly peace full people, a people peaceful in ac- tion, in intent, and of peaceful con- templation," says a bulletin just is- sued by the National Geographic so- press dispatches, this race is the only such race, but then, it is one of the most peculiar peoples in the worlds s history-the gypsies.
 Entering into the life of all nations under the sun, yet a part of no single one; mingling themselves within the highest civilizations, yet unlettered; pilgrims upon an eternal wander path, yet forever true to the ties of racial blood and to customs whose ori- gin and significance have been fully forgotten. the gypsy is the most mys- terious of all the strange elements of folkdom.
 Whence they came has never been settled to a certainty. All manner of fables have been spun to explain their origin. Since they first appeared upon the stage of Europe in the middle ages they have been identified with the Lost Tribes of Israel, the mixed null titude' that followed Moses out of Egypt, the Canaanites, the Amorites, the Saracens and the Egyptians. Some nave neld them to De the Children or Cain, and others have decided that they were the children of the Wan dering Jew and the interiors of the restless curse of their father.
 "The gypsies, themselves. have never professed to know who they were or where they came from, but they have shown great readiness to accept the conclusions on this subject of the peo- pie among whom they lived. It was not until the growth of comparative philology and the chance investigation of the gypsies' tongue in the beginning of the last century, that scientists concluded the gypsies to be a wander ing lowcaste tribe from northern In dia. Their language nearly resembles Sanscrit, the foundation tongue of all our western languages which has held itself purest in Indian sources.
 This language they have wonder fully preserved in the face of over mastering cultures and eternal wan dering. This has not been accomplish

ed by a literature or by a close cor poration. The gypsies have no litera- ture, and their language is an unwrit- ten one. while they, themselves, are scattered in small bands over the whole face of the earth, scattered even more widely than the Jew. The gypsy calls himself 'rom,' meaning man, the man of all men. His wife is 'romnr;
 guage is 'romani'. Everyone not of his
 race come under the generic term of 'gentile'.
 Gypsy folk present the strangest
 problems known to philology and ethnography. An elementary, nomadic
 midst of complex civilizations, they have retained their physical charac- teristics, their tribal rules and cus- toms reminiscent of their far-distant, extra-European past, their highly in f1ected language and their thousand
 absolutely singular and without close
 parallel among the peoples of earth. Gypsy religion and gypsy-aspira-
 tion may be summed up in two lines
 from the works of the German poet Goethe:

 and overf1owed into the northern Bal kanS, Hungary, SenIr4 ana w 6SC6rn

 They reached Germany in about 1417
 and England about 15O0. At first they
 were treated kindly by the western
 nations, but their strangeness, their
 unconventionality, their Mght-fnge
 ways, their proneness for fortune-tell- ing, necromancy, black magic and their unwillingnuess for work in all forms soon called down upon them bit ter persecution in Germany, England, France and the Netherlands. In the Balkans, Russia, Hungary and Poland, they were well-treated, and they are found in these countries in great num- bers today. Iti sesti1nated that Eu- rope has more than 300, GOO gypsies.' g

At regular sessio.. of the Westerly probate court, Judge Edward NJ. Burke presiding. the will of Benjamin F. Underwood. late of Quincy, H., na- tive and former resident of Westerly. and who died here, was admitted to probate. MT. Underwood was for many years of the editorial staff Of the Quincy Journal and he named aSSeX- ecutor of the will Henry A. Fry, also of the editorial staff of the Journal, the only member of the staff whose term was longer than that of Mir. Under wood. Under the terms of the will the real estate and building at 20 Tower street, Westerly, is given to his broth CT, Orion l.. Underwood, who resides here, and the rest and residue of the estate was left in trust to MT. Fry in the interest and support of the wife Of the teStator, she being then under treatment for mental disease in a hos pital established for the treatment of such diseases.
 The will stated that the testator had no heirs except his brother Orion and several nephews and nieces, and that upon the death of Mrs. Underwood all of the estate should go to the brother. Mrs. Underwood has since died and therefore MT. Fry declined to accept the executorship of the estate. Judge Burke appointed pr. c. Grant Savage administrator with will annexed and fixed the bond at s6,000 to cover per sonaI property. The appraisers are Everett E. Whipple, Eugene B. Pendle- ton and James W. Burke.
 The inventory of the estate of Will liam c. Casicori, showing value of $500, was received and ordered record ed Petition to mortgage the real es- tate for not more than $500 was grant ed and the bond was fixed at $500.

 There was a special meeting of the town council, Saturday night, to con- slider the ordering of oil for street sprinkling and to use the same before appropriation is made for the pur- chase at the financial town meeting.
 The annual financial town meeting will be held in May and the election in June. It is fair to presume that the new council will have full mem bership of seven, although the busi- ness of the town was transacted by six members during the present term, as one of the members elected was disqualified by reason of failure to register as a voter.

The motorcycle dashed on at full speed and with it's driver plunged into the Pawcatuck river. The ma- chine was slightly injured but the only damage to the driver was a cold bath.

 Expires at Hotel.

Danie1son, March 21.-Henry Cole, 60, of whom little is known excepting that he is a travelling salesman for a Buffalo. N. r., house, died suddenly at S.45 o'clock Sunday night in his room at the Attawaugan hotel while preparations were being made to take him to the Day Kimball hos pital, at Putnam. MT. Cole came here on a business trip last Tuesday. He was i'll at the time and continued to be so but his condition was not con- sidered dangerous then, even during the early part of Sunday.

Horton were mak- ing him ready for the hospital, he col lapsed in his chair and died, his heart probably having failed. The firm for which Mr. Cole travelled was mo- tified by telegraph. Little about him could be learned by letters in his pos- session.

 The jitney service has already at tained such proportion in Rhode IsI- and that legislative action regarding it's regulation has been started. To a small degree the service was com menced in this state in Westerly when driver of a taXicab on his home trip to AShaWay would take position near a trolley car bound to that place and solicit patronage on the basis of the regular trolley fare, five cents for each of the two zones between Westerly and AshaWay.

After consultation with the steer ing committee of the Rhode Island legislature and with republican party leaders, the house judiciary commit tee, to the wishes of the recognized party management, reported the act giving women providential suffrage in the state, with the recommendation that it be indefinitely postponed. The party leaders did not want the com- mittee to make any report, but to pigeonhole the measure. They can do such things in Rhode Island, but not so in Connecticut where every meas ure referred to a legislative commit tee, must be reported, either favoraibly or unfavorably. and be disposed of finally by the general assembly.

The stockhouse, and the engine and boiler house of the old quarry of Jo- seph NewalI and company. at Brad ford, with all contents, such as chan ne1ling bars, steam drills. bushings, etc were totally destroyed by g. fire discovered about g o'clock Saturday night, entailing 8. loss of about $3,000. At that time the stockhouse was ablaze and the fire soon spread to the boiler and engine house. The barn, which contained a large quantity of hay, was saved. Much valuable material was removed from the stockhouse over a month ago.
 Omcers of the company believe the fire was of incendiary origin and state that three weeks ago fire was start ed in the compressing room and a part of the sills of the building burned. It is the belief that the party who set the fire relented and extinguished the blaze with water from nearby tubs to be used in case of fire.
