ton was received in the Minneapolis public

itself, and was the cause of giving him con-
siderable notoriety. The first role he ap-
peared in before the public was as the ICY

considerable talent in this direction, aso.

CoLoRED GIRL AT vAssAR.
The First to Graduate From That
AristOcratic Institution.

Miss Annita Hemmings, says the Boston
Globe. is much dispeased at the notoriety she
has had because of the publicity given the
fact that she is the first woman not of purely
Caucasian blood who has graduated from Vas
sar, and because it has been said that she
met with some disagreeable experiences on
that account She fees that she has been un-
necessarily drawn into public notice, and
hence she refuses to say anything more about
the matter herself.
Her friend, Mrs. ]. H. Lewis with whom
she is now making her home, said that she
could deny for Miss Hemmings the printed
reports that there was opposition to the girl
from either professors or students on ac-
count of her color. Mrs. Lewis further stated
that Miss Hemmings was treated with the
same kindness by both the professors and
the students after they knew that she had
other than white blood as before that fact
became known in the college.
She was popular with all the students, and
still retains their friendship. AS an evidence
of this, Mrs. Lewis said that yesterday after
noon several Vassar girls, who had come to
Boston to visit its historical places, had called
on Miss Hemmings at her home, and insisted
that she accompany them to their hotel and
dine with them as their guest

DAVIS ESTATE DIVISION.
Details of the Compromise That Has
Rcen Reached.

BUTTE, Mont, Aug. 24-The long
fight over the estate of Andrew j. Da-
Wis is practically settled. A petition
has been filed in the district court
dropping the contest to the alleged
forged will, and agreeing to the dis
tribution. When Davis died in 1890,
his estate was valued at S., 600, 000 Of
this Andrew ]. Davis Jr., nephew OF
the dead millionaire, was given stock
of the First National Bank of Butte
valued at 100000 by an alleged death
bed bequest. The stock of the Butte
and Boston Mining company, valued
then. at $2,500,000, has since been sold
to the reorganization committee of that
company for $1S0,G00. An inventory
filed with the petition gives the
amount of cash in the administrators
hands as $4,000; real estate, $500, 900;
notes, $4,000; property in the hands
of the auxiliary administrator in Bos-
ton, $4,000 total, $1,732, 900. The debts
of the estate are $685. 900; expenses Of
the administration, $110, 900; requests in
will, $4,000; total, $299,0O0, leaving
81, 100000, of which $670,CG0 is ready for
distribution now The court is asked
to allow this to be distributed right
away.
In the agreement dropping the con-
test, all the blood relatives of the dead
millionaire are taken care of, but Diana
Davis and Erwin Davis, sister and
brother. The former is barred by the
statute of limitation, never having been
a party to the contest Erwin Davis
is also barred for the same reason, be-
sides being indebted to the estate. The
agreement divides the estate into elev-
en-hundredths. The heirs of John A.
Davis, brother of the dead millionaire,
get two hundred eleven undredths:

and the opium habit. viii not be in Min
neapolis during the convention of the Kelley
time. DR.. Kelley is compelled to remain
away from the conventions for other
reason than that he can not afford to agitate
his throat with speechmaking. He suffers a
great deal from serious throat affection
and he knows that if he should come to
Minneapolis he would be asked to speak, ard
so he modestly remains away altogether.

senting first the men who have been cured
second the womans auxiliary ard lastly
the managers of the several Kelley insti-
tuteS began their several sessions yester-
day. The attendance was not UP to what

yesterday in earnest, but that of the league

stated that he had delivered his tirst temper

years ago, and that these years had inaugu-
rated considerable change in his manner of
dealing with the liquor question.
Probably the most remarkable address that
has ever been heard in this city was that
by J. E. Mowbray. who has been cured of
the morphine habit. His description of the
manner in which he became addicted to the
habit. his family ties, and the exceeding
pleasure of leaving Dwight cured man, was
most graphic one At times his eloquence
rose in pathos that drew forth many a
tear from his listeners.
