1t is these, Amasa Flagler declares,
which are damaging to the original
document, but none Of them seem
materially to affect it. The first CO.
dicil gives his trustees the power to
complete the southern extension of
the Florida East Coast Railroad,
which he denied them in the Will
The second codicil defines the
meaning. of the term expiration of
trust, which occurred frequently in
the will, and provides that if Harry
Hardness F'lagler is not living at the
end of the expiration OF trust then
the 5000 shares of oil stock lapse TO
the estate. In this codicil also he
revoked the legacies of $4,000 to the
Florida University and $4,000 to the
John B. Stetson University, and pro-
vided for requests of $4,000 to ]. P.

No Increase for
Son s Share Of Estate.

The third codicil announces that
upon consideration the testator found
incorrect the statement in the will
that he had given his son securities
netting $4,000 a year. However, he
said, this mistake did not warrant an
increase in the legacy to Harry Hark-
ness Flagler.
The codicd also provides for a leg
acy of $4,000 to Harry E. Bemis,
and empowers. his trustees to borrow
money for the extension Of his rail-
road to Key West.
Codicil four specifies that the
smaller legatees are not to receive
the amounts provided unless at the
time of his death they are in the en-
ploy of the Flagler railroad or hotel
interests.
Codicil five empowers his trustees
to continue to pay to Horace H. Flag

1t provides, too. that the legacy to the

Makes Charges
Against Beneficiaries.

According to his story, Amasa
Flagler was denied a part in the flu
neral. He went on his way North,
where he has made his sensational
charges that Mrs. Flagler. DR.. Kee-
nan and ]. b. Parrot kept the dying
financier secluded, denying all admis
sion that they might maintain an in
fiuence over him.
The three are the principal benef-
Charles under the will, and it is
Amasa's inference that because they
were with him continually, to the Sc
clusion Of others, their claims were
made secure He hints, in his inter
views, that codicils to the original
Flagler will were made under their
domination, cutting out other Legal
tees, particularly Harry Hardness
Flagler. the son OF the tinancier
However, an examination of the
will and codicils proves this accusa-
ton to be without foundation. There
are seven codicils, but none material

Paris-Etretat, owing to the charm

To start with, they had nothing but
the land on which to build the house,
and the idea Of copying one of the

Yeas ago, was pulled down and the
materials taken 10 England. From
the photographs of this house the
architect made his plans, improving
on 1t by adding parts modelled on
other existing houses, notably sur

with which this reconstructed house
has been built is all ancient and OBJ

With great gravity and dignity
young Mr.. Rawn staiked down the
brick walk to the front gate of the
parsonage yard Calmly, with no
word, but with uplifted hand-nay,
merely by his stately dignity--he
barred the progress of these two.
They paused, uncertain. Then he held
out his hand, and, with a growl of
command, demanded of these others
that which they had regarded as their
own. He took it as matter of course
that Caesar should have the things

their owners, young Mr.. Rawn showed
them that, although these fruits were
unfamiliar to their former owners,
they made no enigma to person of
his powers. AS though he had done
nothing else all his life. he broke open
the tender skin and removed the soft
interior contents. After this he hand
ed back to each of his young friends
the disrupted and now empty skins.
Yet, with much kindness, he explained
to both that at the bottom of each
husk or envelope there still remained
some portion of edible contents which.
with care upon their part, might yet
be rescued. They departed, wonder

A certain interest attaches to a lit
tie event which nowhere else, save in
some such village, would have been

leading local merchant, in a burst of
enterprise, had imported a couple of

and much-traveled citizen who had
once eaten banana at Fort Worth
the rumor Of the bananas passed rap

this fruit.
