STEPDAUGHTER
Follows Out Dying Wish of
Wife.

NEW YORK, Aug. 24-The dying wish
of his wife, made one and a half years
ago, that he take care Of her daughter by
a former husband, was carried out here
when Alexander Taylor married his step
daughter, Miss Isabelle Gordon. Both
live with the girls grandmother at 1904
1O2d st, Richmond Hill.
Taylor, who is 35, married Mrs. Cor
don ten years ago. Isabelle was IL years
old. When Mrs. Taylor was dying she
begged her husband:
please take care of Isabelle as you
have taken care Of me-"
1t seemed the stepfather was taking
nothing more than a paternal interest in
his dead wife's daughter, but the girls
grandmother, Mrs. Elizabeth Wheeler,
saw the romance budding. She said
IT was not the least surprised when
they told me they were going to be mar
ried. l. readily consented. Alex was
splendid husband to my daughter, and
know he will be just as much In love
with Isabelle.
"Of course know It Is unusual for a
girl to marry a stepfather. but If he If

SCHOOL COSTS
TO BE COMPARED
Contrast Price of Local
Buildings With Other
Places.

Reports comparing school buildings
and the costs at Muncie. Evansville, Mo-
hawk and Center Township Of this
county, with school buildings and their
costs in Indianapolis, Will be made by
Bert S. Gadd, member Of the board Of
school commissioners, and l.. A. Snider,
formerly building advisor of the board,
and a member of the firm Of Snider Il
Rotz. engineers for the board, at the
regular meeting Of the board Tuesday
evening.
The buildings in question, together
with one at Morocco and one at Kent
land, were referred to frequently dur
ing the recent hearing before the State
board of tax commissioners on the
$S47 900 bond issue asked Ly the school
board for the erection Of four new build
ings and remodeling of the old ones. 1t
was stated frequently during these hear
ings by opponents Of the bond issue that
these buildings had been erected at q cost
far below that of Indianapolis school
buildings.
Mr.. Gadd said today a written report
would be submitted to the board Tues
day night in which the entire matter
would be dealt with in detail and at
length. He said he and Mr. Snider had
investigated the matter carefully and
thoroughly. All expenses of the trips
were borne by Mr.. Snider and Mr.. Gadd
personally and are not to be paid by the
school board, he said.
At the time of the hearings members Of
the school board and their representa-
tivss insisted comparisons between costs
of buildings in this city and at other
points throughout the State were unfair
unless all figures as to comparative labor
costs and the exact details Of construc-
ton were available. School buildings in
this city. it was asserted, are of fire.
