HUNDRED YEARS OLD,
CELEBRATES EVENT
Archbishop Prendergast At
tends Solemn Pontihcal
Mass at Orphanage Chapel
On Anniversary Day.

Archbishop Prendergast attended
solemn pontfcaI Mass. celebrated in the
chapel OF st. Joseph's Orphan Asylum,
Seventh and Spruce streets, at 10 o'clock
this morning The mass was held in
commemoration of the Tooth anniversary
of the foundation OF the orphanage. The
celebrant was Bishop McCort,
"Old" st. Joseph's, as the orphanage has
been known to thousands of Catholics
est institution OF its kind in the United
States, having been founded in 1897. The
orphanage at that early date was main
tanned through the kindness of wealthy
Catholics. who opened the house as
temporary home for the children Of poor
parents who had fallen victims OF the
yellow fever scourge In that year.
From It's start the home was looked
after by lay members Of the Catholic
Church. 1t was located in a little dwell
ing next door to Holy Trinity Church
on South Sixth street The FIRST board
of managers were the trustees OF the
church. In 1914 the work became Of
such importance 10 the Catholics Of Phil
adelphia that Mother Seton, then the
Mother Superior OF the Sisters of Charity,
in Emmetsburg, Nd, was petidoned to
place several sisters In charge OF the
orphanage.
The sisters took charge Of the instItu-
tion on October 8. 1914. IN the Sixth street
house In 1896 the home was removed
TO the present location at Seventh and
Spruce streets, Several other houses were

| home.
Many thousands OF needy children have
! been cared for and given an education BY
| the sisters. At present 800 little children
| are looked after I'm the big house Of "Old"
/ ST. Josephs. The vast majority OF the
| children educated at the home have gone

| success. Many Of the once poor orphans
are now influential business or profess

| Many names prominent on the list OF
| donors IN recent years are those OF men
| who once were inmates Of the home
Some OF these men were noticed by the
older sisters at this mornings celebra-

FORESTER WILLS CONTESTED
Two Documents Filed for Probate
Dispose of Estate Differently.


The contest over the will of Louis
Forester, who died at 1131 Callowhill
street, August 13. will be opened at a
hearing before Register of Wills Sheehan,
October 20.
Two papers have been filed in the case,
each alleged to be the last will of the
dCcedent. whose estate amounts to $4,000.
One of the Wills, dated September 90
1912, hequeaths $500 to the Lutheran
Home for old Folks at Mount Airy, and
a similar amount to the Old Folks Home
at Lawndale. An additional bequest of
500 is made to the Samaritan Home, at
Fourth and Callowhill streets. with the
residue Of the estate going to sister-in-
law, niece and other relatives.
A second win bears only the date of
the year 1912, with no date of month. 1t
bequeatns $3.50 to relatives and the residue
to a nephew, Frederick w, Forester, who
is also appointed executor. The Will of
September 20 ignores this nephew, who
contends that he will prove that the
document making him the principal bene-
fciary was the last executed.
