Allegiance II the Constitution.

Recent dispatches have told OF the
thousands Of Filipinos in various parts
OF the archipelago that have taken the
oath OF allegiance to the United States,
the total being greatly more than the
administration claimed were ever in
opposition to American authority. The
numerical inconsistency. however, is
not important as the administration
might have believed it Was telling the
truth when it maintained that the only
disaffection was among rowing bands
whose occupation by choice was to ear
ry on guerilla warfare. The last re-
port from Macarthur says more than
50, 600 Filipinos haze sworn allegiance
in the province of lloilo alone, by which
the native solemnly swears that he will
support the constitution of the United
States Whereupon the New YORK

Tauxht Hima Lesson.

A well-known admiral, who did no.
table service in the war with Spain,
told a good story on himself when
in town recently. He came to the
city during the restoration of indie
pence hall for no other purpose than
to secure one of the original bricks
of the historic structure. One day
he visited the hall and told the care
taker who he was and what he want
ed. That official, willing to do q IA
vor for such a distinguished person,
wrapped up one of the bricks and
handed it to the admiral. who was
profuse in his thanks. Upon his ar
rival in Washington the admiral gave
further evidence of his gratitude by
writing letter to Director Ritter, ex-
pressing thanks to HIM. What was
his surprise the next day to receive
= call from the caretaker who had
.giigen him the brick. with the state
ment that # he did not bring it back
. to Philadelphia he would surely lose
his job. Reluctantly the admiral re-
turned the cherished brick. A short
time after he received the identical
brick, accompanied by slip of paper,
on which was written: "Silence ID

who has been at Buffalo for the last few

at the Pan-American exposition. The
space secured is one of the most prominent
on the grounds, covering nearly 1000 feet
OF the walls and GOO square feet ON the
noor OF the machinery and transportation
building, which is said to be one of the
finest architectural creations on the

LUCKY LITTLE GIRL.
Vii, Inherit Millions by Just Beias
a Coed Woman. ESSiek{
Nv Nichols. c. Creole, the ven.
$KnSvvn California Milliona ire.
. CaRa to Leave His Fortune to
Dorothy BRsIord.

Never did San Francisco mothers
dnd sisters take keener interest in !,
child than they are now eyincing in
Dorothy Creole, the Titan haired
dye-year-old girl who made happy the
list days of Nicholas c. Creole and to
yhom he. bequeathed his millions Of
mining property, stocks and bands.
Romantic as it was for the hardy
miner after many years of rough life
to become attached to the one-year-
old youngster he saw playing in a
garden next to his home, those who
knew him best thought it even more
interesting that he should adopt the
child and then should make her heir
to his millions.
But this he did, and now comes the
most extraordinary feature of the
case. In his viii, it has just become
known, Creole imposed but one con-
dition. That was that the entire prop
erty should go to Dorothy only ''if she
has led proper and virtuous life.'
This unique feature of Creede's will
was brought to light by the institution
Of suit for $3.50 a week by Mrs. Creole,
widow Of the millionaire miner. She
had not lived happily with her hus-
band, and some time during the year
before he died he paid her $4,000 in
REIMBURSEMENT of all claims against
him. She went to her home in Ala
hama. and the intention was that at the
end of the year Creole should obtain
a divorce on the ground of abandon
ment. He died within a year and the
suit was never brought.
1t was little Dorothy Basford,
daughter of Mrs. Edith Scott Basford,
who made bright and happy the last
days of the Colorado miner. He first
saw her through window of his splen-
Griggs courier. (Cooperstown, Griggs Co., Dak. [N.D.]) 1885-1902, 1901-01-24

did home in Los Angeles. He wanted
to adopt her, but her mother pro-
tested. When Mrs. Basford became
dangerously i'll, however, and her life
was despaired of, she consented to the
appointment of the wealthy miner as
Dorothy's guardian. This was near
the end of Creede's life. The guardian,
instead of the mother. died. Mrs. Bas-
ford recovered, and, although she had
trembled for the future of her little
daughter because she could not OBJ
tain for her the best advantages, she
now found that Dorothy had become
an heiress to millions.
In his will Creole provided for the
future comfort and training of the lit
tie one whose childish prattle had
frightened his last days, and: he d.
rected that she be given the advan-
tages of special tutors. His wishes
have been the especial care of Doro-
] thy's mother; and in the fortunate
daughter are being developed those
strong traits of character which the
rough miner thought he saw in his
little friend.
Dorothy Creole is in her fifth year
now, and she must wait many years
before she can come into possession of
the 100000 left to her by her guard
ian. Those who see her often, while
mindful of her childish lack of appre-
citation of what the millionaire's gen.
crosby means to her, are confident
that when she becomes p years old
she will come into the property.
They have no fear that she will lose
the Creole fortune because of the
unique provision of the will which has
recently become known.
