Time, 2.20 1-2. Second heat, same order. Time, 222 1-2, Third heat of 2.16—Same positions as two previous heats. Time, 2.21 1-4. A Brief Dispute. Second heat local was won by /Robert §., Donnybrook second, County Beater third, Billiken fourth and Gold Bird fifth. Time, 219 1-2. There was an Interlude here. Driv- ers Brown and Martin of the two horses finishing in first ang second places got together and were having a lively time. Martin ulleged that Brown crowded him and only for the intervention of the police there might have been a fist fight on the side. The crowd ‘gathered quickly Hut everything calmed down and the race was con- tinued. £ Third heat—This was a beauty, be- ing a dead heat ween Donnybrook and Robert S., unty Beater third, Gold Bipd foafth, and Billiken fifth. Time, 220 2-4. . Fourth ‘heat—Donnybrook, Robert 8., Couty Beater, Gold Bird and Bil- likex n the order named. Time, 2.21. It was decided that this should con- clude the race, and the money was split i nthis manner: _ Donnybrook first, Robert 8. second, County Beater third, and fourth was split between Bjlliken and Gold Bird. There was much applause during the running of the several heats of this race and Donnybrook and Robert S. came in for their share of the plau- dits of the excited throng. Thus end- ed a very successful three days' horse racing and a bang-up fair. Free-to-Willimantic Class. The big thing of the day was the special free-to-Willimantic horses. This race was 3 hair-raiser and fur- nished plenty to talk about for one good long time. Instead of Brown's Unknown, his Robert S. was started, drawing fifth position. Billiken, Sadd's horse, had the pole, Gold Bird, own- ed by Eugenc Maynard of Lebanon, had second position, County Beater, Joht (Curran’s stud, was_in third po- sition, Donnybrook, L. N. Dondero’s horse, had fourth. Considerable dif- fieulty was encountered in the endeav- r to, ‘send the fleld away. Distance s Glso waived in this race, = After & great many attempts to score had besn made, until it got to_be almost a ‘burlesque show, with T. R. Sadd as, /the leading comedian, but closely ressed by County Beater, his_driver, N. ¥, and Owner Curran, and some more who tried .to pucify County Beater and make him sufficiently tractable to_turn around and prepare ‘to score ‘like a zentleman, and Gold Bird, acting more like a flighty flirt than a race horse, the first heat was sent away after ex- actly 37 minutes of attempted scor- ing. Sadd did not then have the chance that should haye been his, ac- cording to some. The heat was a grand race, however, between Donny- brook and Robert 8. The finish was in this order: Donnybrook, Robert 8. County Beater, Billiken, Gold Bird. Time, 2.18 1-4. ‘At no time during the heat was Robert S. a le hind until coming in at the final stretch when Martin seemed to urge Donnybrook and pull gradually away and then ease up a little at the wire, permitting Robert S. to finish within forty feet or a trifle less, Fair Notes.

The Connecticut compafty has re- moved 1ts line of telephone wires from the poles along its right of way. Com- munication is now open to the car crews with the superintendent's of- fice at Dayville, but by a different sys- tem.

Paine, administrator of the estate of John Waldo, has reached a point well toward the conclusion of his duties, which will include the sale of the Waldo block on Main street. FUTNAM Ross Will Case Continued in Superior Court—Dr. J. T. Terriberri Gives Ex- pert Testimony—Estate Inventories $89,437—High School Committee Re- ports. Expert evidence was offered by the appellant in the case of James M Grant's appeal from probate in the will of William Ross, when the case was ;esumed in the superior court THurs- ) he taking of this evidence, how- ever, was preceded by the hearing of the testimony of Edward Whiteman of Chaplin, who told of the appearance of Ross' after 1903 ang stated his be- lief that Ross was of unsound mind. Willlam J. Lee of Chaplin told of a business transaction he had had with Ross which Ross had forgotten in a few weeks. On cross-examination the witness said the forgetfulness might have been caused by sickness, Frank Dunham of Putnam, a cousin of Roes, testifying as to the relation existing betweén Grant and Ross, said that as far s he knew the two were on good terms. John P. Dunham of Mansfield, another cousin of Ross, cor~ roborated .the testimony of Frank Dunham. Estate $89,487. Attorneys for the appellant offered the inventory of the Ross estate as filed in the probate court. It included theé following: Real estate in Chaplin, ( ,000; Rich hill_property, $500; Hop. in place, $300; Kingsbury farm $600; Ross farm at Tower hill, $400; lot in Chaplin ceemtery, $6: East Lyme prop. erty $2,000; Mansfield property $7,000 Windham real estate $50,070; total real estate $58,756; deposits in various Connecticut banks, $13,080.01; $6,971; notes secured by mortgages, $3,774,17; notes unsecured $445.63; cash on hand in national banks, ete, $6 collection of old colns, $143.87; furni- ture, cattle, hay, $1.212.10; lumber and ice, 39 machinery in silk mill, $3,483.07: fotal fnvlentory, $98,487.82. Wife's Power of Attorney. At this time also wes exhibited a power of attorney of William Ross to Emily Ross dated Dec. 14, 1908. Mr. Ross dled on Dec. 30, 1988." The power of attorney gave Mrs, Ross power. to do all the personal business of her husband and was recorded in nearly all of the towns where Ross held prop- erty. Expert Testimony. At this _point the attorneys for Grant infroduced their first expert witness, Dr. J. F. Terriberri. Dr. Ter- riberri, ‘expert neurologist, stated that he was a physician practieing at St. Agnes’ and other hospitals in New York. He is a member of several med- ical societies and an expert on di orders of the mind. Attorney Torrey framed a long hypothetical question coverlng evidence as to Ross' mental condition at the time of the making of the will and asked the witness whether he would say or not, under such conditions, that Ross was insane. Attorney Searls objected to the ques- tion on the grounds that in the hy- pothetical * question Attorney Turrey had assumed facts not brought out in the evidence. The court, however, al- lowed the question with slight modi- fications. Thought Ross was Irisane. Dr. Terriberri said in his_opinion Ross was insane at the time. In giving his reasons for this .belief the doctor described: the action of the blood ves- sels on the brain and said that prob- ly some of them had been closed when Mr. Ross suffered an attack of paralysis in 1903 and during other ill- nesses previous to his last. He told how this closing of the blood vessels would retard circulation and weaken the patient mentally and physically. On Cross- Examination. Attorney Searles commenced _the cross-examination of Dr. Terriberrl at the opening of the afternoon session and endeavored to secure an admis- sion from the witness that his opinion as to Mr. Ross’ sanity was partly based on the evidence he had heard fa court. Dr. Terriberri was resolute In main- taining that his opinion was based en- tirely on the hypothetical question as put to him.
