The announcement that Rev. r. B.
AcDanel, pastor OF the First Baptist
church, would preach Sunday night on
this subject, "The sucrilege of the Cen
fury, Bishop POtter,s Dedication of a

congregation to the church. The dis

FATHER AND MOTHER
GONE HOME TO REST

The sadest event of our lives occurred
ut our home the 5th and 9th of August,
when dear father and mother Calvin
and Elizabeth Highland) were taken
from our midst and laid in one silent
tomb to rest. We have lost kind and
loving father and mother, but we feel
that our loss is their eternal gain, for
we know that they are at rest forever
and evr. Their lives were true and
honest lives; living not for their terres-
tial home, but for their celestial home
They were ever ready and willing to
help those who needed help. They
passed away as quietly and peacefully
as they had lived. Although it was
hard for us to part with them, yet we
feel to realize that it was Gods will,
not ours, His will be done.
The last words of dear mother were
II love Jesus. love Jesus. Glory
Halleuiah!" But dear father was taken
away SO suddenly, we know not what
would have been his last words, but ne
always expressed himself as being will
ing and ready to go.
We miss them, oh! we miss them,
How much no one can know;
And yet We know twas best that they
From earth to Heaven go.
They were gentle, kind and loving,
And, oh, it seems so bard,
And still we know it was best for them,
For they are at home with God.
Their suffering now is ended,
No more they fel a pain,
And we know that our great loss
Is their eternal gain.
Then why should be grieve ar weep,
When we know they are at rest,
Asleep in Jesus, blessed sleep,
At home among the blest.
At peace, at rest in Heaven,
We know that they must be;
At nome with Cor forever,
. In grand eternity.
We desire to express our thanks to
the people of this vicinity and others,
for their Kindness and sympathy shown

LEAVES TWO FAMILIES
The Contest Over Property
Nav Be as Bitter as Any
in His Turbulent Career

A bitter contest is expected over the
estate Of J. Alexander Yoell. the
wealthy san Jose attorney, who died
at Highland Springs on Friday The
deceased left two families. the first
consisting Of three children. the second
OF seven children. His first wife is still
alive.
During his life Yoell's name figured
in many stormy lawsuits. With this
abundance Of heirs TO his 100000 es-
tate it is certain that his name will
live in the records Of the courts though
he be dead
In anticipation OF q possible con-
test over his estate application was
made yesterday for special letters of
administration by his eldest daughter,
Evelina A. Levy. The application was
made through Mrs. Levy's attorney
Henry c. McPike. and after hearing
his argument the letters were granted
and q bond for S25. 900 filed.
He made a viii on January 26 Of this
year in which Mrs. Levy was named as
his executor.
That Pidge Toell feared a dispute
over the disposition Of his property is
shown by the contents OF a letter
which was written on the same day as
the viii was executed and sealed with
instructions that it be not opened until
after his death The letter, addressed
10 Mrs. Levy, contained the following
sentence:
Il uish you to act at once and take
out special letters Of administration
until the viii is probated, so that my
wishes regarding the disposition of
the property viii be carried out"

course Yoell procured a divorce from
his wife in the courts Of Santa Clara
County on the ground Of desertiOn
and shortly afterward married Miss
Emily G.. Center who had been en-
ployed in the Yoell family as a dress
maker. Seven children were born OF
this second marriage. After ten years

tion and quarrels YoeI preserved the
art Of making money and keeping it.
Yoelrs life while practicing Sat the
