MUST CHANGE HER FAITH.
Condition on Which $25, 900 Was Be-
Queathed to Miss Jewell

New York, April 17.-Relatives of the
late banker-oratOr, Frederick Taylor, in
asking the supreme court to interpret
certain portions of his will, seek to have
the legacy of the will as whole con-
frmed by the court
The most important clause in ques-
ton is that which directs that $25, 900
be held in trust for the benefit of Caro-
line Taylor Jewell, a niece of the tes-
tatOr, the money to be paid to her only
on condition that she should not become
a nun and that she sever her cOnnec-
ton with all Roman Catholic institu-
lions.
Miss Jewell, contrary to the wishes of
Mr.. Taylor, who was her guardian, and
of her other relatives, all of whom were
PrOtestants, EN- braced the Roman Cath
Ole faith about eight years ago, when
she was 20 years old. She had been ed
ucated by her grandmother, who, though
a Protestant herself, had sent Miss Jew
ell to a Catholic convent in Brooklyn.
There the girl stayed for several years.
She made many friends and embraced
the Catholic religion.
Shortly after she left the convent and
after her grandmother's death Miss
Jewell went to live with Mr.. Taylor at
the family home in this city. There she
announced her change of religious faith
and stated that she intended to become
a nun. Eventually she entered the con-
vent of the Sacred Heart In St. Louis,
despite the protests of her uncle and
Otner members OF the IaInlIy, ana II is
stated here that she has been an inmate
of the Sacred Heart for the last seven
years. Her relatives have had no COM
municatiOn with her during this period,
and it is not even known that she is
aware of the provisions of her uncle's
| will. 1t is understood, however, that
she has taken her final vows a nun.
OF the defendants in the present suit
| Louisa Josephine Taylor, is the widow
| of Frederick Taylor, and Henry S. Tay-
| lor and Edward r. Taylor are brothers
| one living in Danbury, Conn.,, and the
| other in the west.

UP THE SHAFT.
Fire Breaks Out in an Eleven
Story Building
I'm the Most Fashionable Quar-
ter of London.
Flames Mount to the Top
Through Elevator Way.
Defective Fire Apparatus En-
dangers Many Lives.

London, April 17.-Hyde Park court,
ALBERT Gate, one of the finest and most
fashionable blocks of residential flats,
overlooking the famous Rotten Row.
caught fire at half-past this morning.
The building, which is eleven stories
high, was built by the notorious Jabez
Spencer Balfour, the former member of
parliament who was responsible for the
collapse of the Liberator Building as
sociation and other companies, by which
thousands of people were ruined ana
who is now undergoing a sentence OF
fourteen years penal Servitude as a re
suit of his conviction on charges or
fraud. 1t practically adjoins the house
occupied by Sir Herbert NaylOr-Ley-
land, Bart, Liberal member of parlia-
ment for the Southport division of
Lancashire whose wife was Miss Jen-
ME Chamberlain of Cleveland, o.
The fire broke out in the lower part
of the building and spread up the ele-
vator shaft before the occupants We're
aware of the danger When the alarm
was raised the affrighted servants
dropped from the top windows to a
Veranda on the ninth story. The de-
fectiVe arrangements of the London fire
brigade were again demonstrated, and
even when the fire escapes reached the
scene, they were too short to reach the
people in the upper stories who only
escaped with the greatest difficulty
while the residents of the lower stories
Streamed out of the building carrying
what they could of their belongings.
The flames were not under control
until o'clock when the upper part of
the structure was burned out.
1t is considered lucky that the fire oc
CURED in daylight as otherwise it would
have resulted in loss of life. All the
floors We're supposed to be fire proof.
The investigation made into the cause
of the fire shows it to have been due to
the overheating of an electric wire. Sew
eral of the occupants of the building es-
capped in their night dresses.
A whole army of firemen under Com
mander Wells was engaged in subduing
the flames.
During the conf1agration the windows
of the French embassy which overlook
ed the scene were crowded, and an i'm
mense concourse of people watched the
fire from the streets. The property de-
stroyed included a quantity Of jeMelry.

MISSIONARY REWARDS.

TF'rom the Presbyterian Banner1
The sad as well as the happy side of
mission life in Persia is aptly described
by Miss Margaret Demuth, who has
boarding school in Tabriz where the
heather girls are taught to love Christ.
She writes: zone girl II years old, who
did not even know her letters, and was
a servant girl in a very ungodly home,
two years ago began to come to our
school a day pupil. Those employing
her were very much opposed, and said
to US in speaking of her: Can a fool
learn?' But she came and learned to
read well in the First Reader. Then in
the fall of 1897 she wanted to come into
our school as a bOarder, saying she
loved the Christian life of our girls and
teachers and that she herself wanted
to live a Christian, but that she could
not be free to do so if she stayed in
that family.
Her parents were very poor and she
had no one to furnish her clothes or
pay her tuition, but when I saw her
great earnestness and sincerity told
her L would furnish these for her. Many
threats were made by relatives, but she
at last said to them: I am going into
that school, and if you break my neck
Ca strong expression in this country)
I am goi o. anyway and she came.
And such a joy and satisfaction her life
has been here in our school and home.
She was converted soon after coming
and the girls and teachers call her our
preacher for she is continually tell
ing others how blind she was in dark
ness and ignorance and how wonderful
ly her eyes have been opened by the
Gospel since she came into our school
and of how she now rejoiceS in the
eternal salvation of her soul. She now
reads her Bible well and often takes it
with her to the wicked home where she
formerly lived and reads to them there
and fin her owns wOrds) breaches to
them One time she talked to them
so warmly about drinking, swearing
and Sabbath breaking, that they order
ed her away, saying she was too much

BEST BOAT TO WIN
In the Coming International Yacht
Race.

New York, April 17.-Major Eustace
Jameson. member of parliament for
West Claire and IreIand's foremost
yachtsman who will be Sir Thomas Lip
toms official representative aboard the
Shamrock during the races for the
America cup next fall, is in New York
on business trip during which he will
attend to many details concerning the
international contest.
THE last thing Sir Thomas said to
me just before leaving London" said
Major Jameson, was this:
IF the Americans win the cup it will
be because they have the better boat.
know of no finer, nor more honorable
sportsmen in the world than the Ameri-
cans and that is the spirit that will
pervade this whole event; the best boat
will win.
THE secrets of the Shamrock are be-
ing closely guarded. Very few men in
England know the least thing about
her.
I'VE recognize in England that you
have in Herr Schoff a great yacht de-
signer and builder; so great that we are
putting forth the best efforts Europe
can produce to beat him. No expense
is being spread in the construction of
the Shamrock. The day she has her
first run, she will have cost $3.50, 000.''

which are built entirely of bamboo.
These cabins have but one room, and
here the entire family, together with
all the domestic animals of which it
may be possessed, live and sleep. The
higher class of natives live in the plas-
tered houses, the same as the Euro
peans. and dress elegantly. One pecul-
lar feature about the women of this
class is the fact that they are devoted
to cigars, and almost any evening you
can see handsome women, elegantly
dressed, walking along the streets puff
fling huge cigars A great many of the
native women, both of the higher and
lower class, have fine features and are
very pretty"
Miss O'Brien did not meet Admiral
Dewey. She had an invitation to a
party on board the Olympia, and would
have met him had not the war broken
out before that date. She met Colonel
Funston and the majority of the volun-
teer officers and their wives. Among
the souvenirs brought back with her
from Manila is a genuine autograph of
Aguinaldo, the Filipino leader, which
she procured expressly for Mrs. T. j.
kellam. 1t was procured for her by one
of the American officers, who cut it from
the bottom of a document sent in by
the Filipino chief.
Miss O'Brien says the Filipinos are
more treacherous than the American
Indians, and that American officers in
the Philippines believe that they can
never be fully subdued. She says it is
the belief there that the German naval
officers are secretly supplying the in
SurgentS with food and ammunition.

How the Moon Climbs Mount Hood.

From the point of view of most Port
landers the moon was launched last
evening on its journey to the zenith
squarely from the peak of Mount Hood
The glow of the setting sun had hardly
faded from the big mountain when his
substitute poked his nose over the north
slope and sat for a second on the Shout
der half way up to the summit, like the
earth on the shoulder of Atlas: Then
it journeyed diagonally up the slope till
it reached the peak, dipping a little,
so that the rugged outlines of the
mountain stood out sharply against the
deep-red sphere. The moon left the sum-
NIT like a vast balloon, making little
southing all the while. 1t seemed to
hang suspended a few minutes before
way and journeyed forth into the sky.
The picture is one which is not often
seen. but which is worth crossing
continent to witness.-Morning Ore
