The will of Randolph McMullen, q
wealthy farmer of Tyrone township,
Pa, probated at Holidaysburg this
week, directs that his estate be divided
under the supervision of three trustees
to be appointed by the court, consist
ing of Protestant clergyman, a Cath

watch the other and that every cent
given to charity will be rightly applied.
The estate, estimated to be worth
100000, will be divided among the
poor of Blair, Huntington and Cambria

Record Conversion.

London, Feb. 20, 1917.-Sincere
sympathy will go out to the Duchess
of Norfolk, who within few days of
the loss of her husband, has sustained
a second heavy bereavement in the
death of her mother, Lady Herries,
which occurred yesterday at Evering-
ham Park, York Lady Herries was
present on Thursday last at the funer-
al of the duke at Arundel, and was
then in good health. It was noticed;
however, that neither she nor the
Duchess was present at the Requiem
Mass on Tuesday in Westminster
Cathedral at which the other men,
bers of the family were present. The
reason was the sudden illness of Lady
Herries, which had summoned her
ddaAghter:.ta Dc shaRs= y Yyorkshire hama. and
which terminated fatally yesterday.
The deceased lady was a sister of
Lord Howard of Glossop and of the
Dowager Lady Butte and was the wi
dow of Baron Herries, who died in
1908. She had two daughters, but no
son, and the Duchess of Norfolk, as
the elder, inherits the barony of Her.
ries in her own right. The other
daughter is the wife of Sir Eric Drum
mond, private secretary to Mr.. Bal
four. The family is an old Scots
Catholic one with many connections.
Cardinal Bourne has addressed a
letter from Rome to the clergy and
faithful of the Archdiocese of West
minister extolling the virtues of the
late duke and asking the prayers of
all for his soul and for the duchess
and her children. This was written
before the second heavy blow fell on
the widow. The Duchess of Norfolk
has an important task before her, the
building of the character and the pro
lection of the health of the little duke
the frail life of nine summers which is
all that stands between Protestant
succession to the most illustriOus
Catholic title of the United Kingdom
for Lord Edmund Talbot has no chill
dren, and the Shrewsbury family, tc
whom the title would pass after him
are Protestants.
Father Bernard Vaughan, S. j., was
unable to be present at the Duke Of
Norfolk's funeral, because he was toe
busy making a record conversion.
Canadian soldier came to him and tol(
him one morning last week that hi
was going back to the front the fol
lowing day, and that he had descended
so low into the cesspooi of Londo1
that he felt the only way to cleans'
himself before returning to face deatl
was to go to confession. AS he wal

WASHINGTON CODES ARE
KNOWN world over
By the United Press.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 25.-Conhden-
tial messages of the State Department
have leaked because the State Depart
ment codes are known abroad, the State
Department has reason TO believe, II
was stated on high authority today.
Because Of this the codes have been
altered from time to time and it is
limited they have been changed only re-
Gently.
Charges that the codes are known
abroad have been made frequently.
Until today. however, the department
has never admitted it's belief that
the code is in foreign hands.
In view of the House leak commit
tees query as to whether New York
brokers had information from abroad
on the Presidents recent note, the
admission from the State Department
today appeared significant; It may
mean that this government hopes to
trace the leak abroad. rather than to
Washington.
In connection with this information
Il was recalled by officials today that
about nine months ago the United
Press carried a dispatch from Berlin
to the effect that keys Of United States
codes had become known In many
European capitals, and that knowledge
OF this had caused a sudden altering
of the codes used by this govern
ment.

ones in the back of the mouth, had
been detected from its course and
grew along the jaw, and underneath
three other teeth.

counseled an immediate operation. He
came to Wilmington last evening and
removed the offending tooth at the
Delaware Hospital. in the presence Of
several physicians and dentists. It
