In Memorium.

AT meeting of the Woman'S Home
Missionary Society of St. James Metho-
dist church, the following resolutions
were ordered placed on the minutes of
the society:
Whereas, 1t has been the will OF Divine
Providence to remove from our midst
our beloved president and co-worker,
Mrs. ]. N. Blackwell, who has long
merited and won our esteem, confidence
and love, whose regard for humanity,
and especially the poor, made brighter
the lives of many who shared her quiet,
unobtrusive acts OF love, the reflex in.
fluence of which enveloped her own
life with halo whose rays could not be
hid under bushel; whose life was made
up largely of feelings, thoughts and acts
for contributing TO the happiness OF all
and of relieving the want and distress OF
the needy.
Whereas, In the death of Mrs. Black
we'll our society SuStans loss that can
not be repaired, a loss that will be keenly
felt throughout our church and city;
therefore, be il
Resolved. That while we reverently
bow SubmiSSively to His will who doeth
all things well, yet we must express our
sense of grief and of loss in this removal
of our beloved friend, whose hospitable
home, ever open in glad welcome to
our society,was the scene of many happy
meetings; that we deeply regret that her
name must be erased from our active
roll and placed upon the list of the. de-
parted; that we will long miss her pres
ence and valued counsel; that we express
our sympathy and share in the sorrow of
the family of our esteemed friend.
Resolved further, That a page of our
minutes be reserved upon which shall be
spread these resolutions and that a copy
of the same be sent to the bereaved fam
lily, and one be furnished the papers of
the city and the Florida Christian Advo-
cate for publication.

Gossip Of Railwaymen

and the Oregon railway and naviga-
t1on system have been approved and
orders will be placed soon through the
New York offices.
These figures represent the approx
innate value of equipment that will be
added in addition to new freight cars.
For the latter on the two roads. Man
ager O'Brien at Portland has asked for
cars that will mean further expen-
diture of $1,850,000, and on which the
eastern officials have given a qualified
approval A large part of the new
freight equipment asked will be or
dered, but the extent of the purchases
throughout the year will depend on
later conditions. The total represented
in the equipment budget for the two
systems in Oregon and in Washington
is about $4,630,0o0.

TNSIDE INFORMATION"
CLIENT SAYS WAS FALSE
Two Lawyers Sued by Legatee
of Eugene ZeiIe

In a complaint filed in San Francisco
yesterday by John Jacob Fargue one of
the legatees under the will of Eugene
Zeile, who died November % 1907 At
torneys Harrison S. Robinson and E. G.
Robinson of Oakland are accused of
having defrauded and cheated the
plaintiff out of part of his inheritance.
The will bequeathed to Fargue SIS, 900.
He states that II. s. Robinson told him
he had certain inside information
which would enable Fargue to get imz
mediate possession of his legacy: but
that without this information ii was
extremely doubtful If the estate would
ever get anything.
Fargue asserts in his complaint that
he was induced by these representa-
tions to assign to Fl. S. Robinson a
third of the $1,000 as compensation for
collecting the legacy. II. S. Robinson
afterward assigned this third of, the
$1,000 TO f. C. Robinson, his partner
In pursuance of the assignment and
agreement the Robinsons February 10.
1910. were allowed by the probate court
sL7OI23.
Fargue sues them for this sum,
charging that -Robinsons representa-
tions about inside information" were
fraudulent and untrue and were made
with the intent to cheat him.

+HE SO bills affecting railways,
which were pending before con-
gress February 81, have been listed
in a digest published by the Railway
Business association. The substance
of each bill is described in one or two
sentences. except that the comprehen-
sive administration bill to amend the
interstate commerce law and a few
others are set forth at some greater
length.
In the preface to the digest the asso-
citation appeals to the congressional
committees to avail themselves of the
knowledge and experience of railway
men on the technical questions at issue
before passing bills which may seri-
ously impair railway prosperity.
The wide disparity of opinion among
members of congress- as shown by the
great variety of bills introduced, gives
evidence that the people at large are
also perplexed; and, therefore, the only
judicious course is to proceed with
great caution.
l.. NJ. Hill has been appointed super
intendent of the dining car service OF
the Missouri Pacific vice George F.
Bonney, resigned.
