THE WILL TO-BE CONTESTED. '
The Grounds for Contesting the Will
of the widow or iresiaent voi&.
Na-hVim.e, Oct.. 13. When the
will of Mrs. Folk, widow of Presi
dent James K. Polk, was admitted
to probate recently it was found
that Mrs. Polk had left the Polk
dace to Mrs, G. W. Fall, her niece,
who has resided with. Mrs. Polk, at
the Polk place, for many years.
It was soon understood that the
will would be contested, and the
expected struggle to retain-posses-sion
of the Polk place on the part
of Mrs. Falkland the determina
tion on the part of the consan
guinou heirs of President! Polk,
was begun today by tlie tiling of a
bill in the chancery court at jNash
ville i by the Polk lleirs through
their attorney. ! "
The bill recites at lenitn the
provisions of President Pool's w ill
and the will left by his widow, Mrs.
Sarah Polk, and gives-the names
and location of between forty and
fifty heirs of the property.
The bill declares Mrs. Fall re
fuses Ito leave tlie premises, and
the complainants ask that a receiver
be appointed who shall take pos
. . . i . , -ii .
session ol l tie place aim eoiieei
rents, pay taxes and take caro of the
property on tlie ground that G, W.
Full ij insolvent, and rents cannot
be collected from his wife.
The! bill states tlit Mrs. Fall's
claim to the property is based Upon
the residuary clause of the will of
the dead president, by winch, in
case his will does not go into oper
ation-, Mrs. Polk would come into
possession, and, as Mrs. Polk left
everything to Mrs. tali, the de
fendants claim that she is tne
rightful heir to the Polk place.
This will form the .basis of the

The smoke afnd flames in the

windows at their side, and nearly

Ed Buchanan, the foreman, was
cut, off from the lire escape and de
scended from the fourth floor by a
rope. At this writing the compo
sition room is gutted at a loss of
about ten thousand dollars. The
roof is burned from the building
and the rear from the basement un
is ourneu out.
THE FILES DESTU0YED.
The"" files on the third floor of
every secular paper published in
Nashville for sixty years, are
doubtless ruined bywater. The
basement is flooded, and the press
and other machinery costing $25,
000, will be badly injured.
The building belongs to G. M.
Fogg, and is damaged about ten
thousand dollars. The fire at 10
o'clock was under control, .but very

PUNGENT HITS
By Sam Jones at "Wilmington, Re
ported by the Star.
The difference between a dead
man and. a dead church member is,
j-ou can bury a dead man and
plant flowers on his grave and he'll
lie still; but a dead church mem
ber can kick like a steer!
There is not a dilliculty in this
town that has lived tventj--four
hours that has not been kept alive
by somebody's1 talkinsr. !
How can a church member keep
straight' when he is winding in and
out in the church, keeping feuds
alive i j
"Of all the things a church was
ever cursed with, one of the worst
is internal feuds and dissensions,
and the preacher's mouths are
ocked. If he sajs anything, some
body will say he "tuck sides."
My experience in the! matter of
baptism is, it s not hovvmuch wa
ter you put on a fellow, but the
kind of fellow you pCTt it oh ! I've
sprinkled some that turned out a
heap better than some 1 dipped
clear under. I
If my , watch don't keen time it!
isn't worth any more than an 03s
ter shell in my pocket, and ifa
man don't keep time religiously he's
worth no more than an oyster shell
in the .church.
If all the preachers in town were
in the pulpit we'd get along better.
There ain't a fellow down town but
what is preaching. I'll tell you
what I think -about it.! A black

. We. find the following interesting
story in an exchange: j -
A divorce suit of a most sensa
tional nature has been .filed in the
Circuit court of Fountain county,
tit Covinffton, Ind. After three
months of wedded life Nettie Pettit
asks to be divorced from her hus
band, Milton Pettit, who is one of
tlie wealthiest men in the county,
lie. promised , her every luxury
when they wre married,, but as
soon as the knot was tied took her
to'u hovel, almost devoid of furni
ture, to live. In the three months
he expended but i'.) on the house
keeping, appropriated all the bed
clothes to his own use, forced her
to use three milk crocks for dishes,
and two rusty knives, use a dip
candle, and, to crown his meanness,
beat her for (throwing ; away the
head of a squirrel, saying that he
could not al!od to buy iamunition
to kill game tp. be thrown awayj.
She wants a tliird of his! large es
tate as alimony. Pettit oiice serv
ed a terra in "the legislature, but

j There was a confusing spectacle
at'the market house this morning.
A little girl walked in and wanted
10 cent9 worth of pork.- Two meat
dealers hurried arounll in their
stalls at the same time. Two pieces
of pork were whacked off " simulta
neously. ; They were offered jto her
immediately and forthwithlyThVre
she stood, between the two ,'pieres
of porks which the market men
were poking at her. The delemma
was in good fashion, with the girl.
She got out of it, by taking both
pieces, giving one the ten cents,
and walking out, leaving one man
with the money, and the other star
ing after his departing meat. We
say both sold one got the money :
the other didn'tand he was worst
sold. Durham Sm.
