GIRL GETS HER FORTUNE.
Uncle Put Valuables In a Safely Box for His
Faithful Maid,
Relatives Try to Get the Property. hut the
Courts Decide She Shall Have
1t All.

Chicago, Nov. 5.-After four years Of
conflict in the courts, Miss Serena NJ.
Martin has at length gained fortune,
the gift of her uncle. Edward Martin,
whom she served as companion and
maid of all work for forty years prior
to his death. To her, 1t means wealth
amounting to more than 100000. and
1t seems now that nothing can prevent
her coming into possession of it.
When Miss Martin was nine years
old, she entered the household Of Ed
Red Hook, N. Y. That was more than
n half century ago, and from that time
up to his death which occurred Dec.
3. 1898 she was his constant companion.
The old man was not unmindful of the
devotion of his niece and sought to
make provision for her during his life
time. According to the evidence during
the trial he rented safety deposit box
in bank and early In 1890 began to
make regular deposits in 1t, telling his
friends at the time he wished 1t I'M
derstood that whatever he put into the
box was for hts iiiece. At the time OF
| his DEATH these securities amounted
to slG1 900 and of this he made no men
! ton in his will, evidently with the
belief so the court has now decided
that 1t all belonged to Miss Martin.
But the other heirs, of whom there
are about twenty-siX, were not long
in raising their objection to this dis
position of the property. The Will was
filed for probate at Seward In Kendall
county, and almost Immediately a
nephew, j. Fielding Martin, began
suit to contest 1t. his contention being
that the Sl67 900 in the safety deposit
box should be counted as portion OF
the estate and apportloned among the
| heirs.
From the first the contest has beer
a determined one. This was aug
mented by the disappointment Of the
| heirs, because they had counted that
| their uncle was easily n millionaire
and 1t developed that the estate

HOLLAND AND HAWAII.
Annexation Treaty Entered Into without
International Complications.

st. Paul, Mimi. Nov. 5.-Holland and
Hawaii were united yesterday by n
notable marriage In st. Paul. The
crown painter to the Dutch royal
family, a distinguished European
artist, was married to the daughter of
Hawaiian kings, widow of remark
able beauty. The groom was Joseph
Huber Vos, of the Hague. The bride
was Eleanor Kaikililini Graham of
Honolulu.
The Rev Dr. John Paul Eglier, of
the House of Hope Presbyterian
church, officiated at the wedding,
which was private, only two personal
friends and the two children of the
bride being present Despite strenu-
Gus attempt to prevent public knowl-
edge of the marriage, 1t Is learned that
Mr.. Vos is one OF Europe's most fam
Gus portrait painters. During several
years he has. however resided in this
country, being recently located at Fort
Totten, N. D., supposedly to study
Indian types.
Mrs. voss is said to belong TO one
of the Hawaiian royal dynasties by
virtue of her fathers family. Her
maiden name Kakalilini Is alleged to
be more than a distinguished name at

lieved to have been a planter of vast
wealth.
