Byrn: A LARGE BEQUEST A Decree of Court Today in Favor of the Newsboys’ Society. - LEGACY CF THIRTY THOUSAND DOLLARS Bequests Claimed by the Garfield and the Children’s Hospitals. RCL oe ee macs THE PHILADELPHIA SOIT eee The members of the Newsboys and Chil- dren’s Aid Society, as well as those inter- ested in the beneficent work performed by this organization, rejoice over a decree which was passed by Judge Cox today. It was in the suit brought by the society against the executors of Mrs.Anna M.Mauls- by and her next of kin. The decree directs Mrs. Maulsby’s executors to pay.oyer to the society the sum of $30,000, which was one of the, bequests of the will, Mrs, . Maulsby was one of three sisters who had posses- sions amounting to about a half a million medy for |of dollars. Qne of the sisters was Mrs. rFhoea. ‘Twenty-five cents a bottle. myl-1y WOODBURY'S FACIAL SOAP FOR THE SKIN, Scalp and complexion, All Breese of Philadelphia and the other Mrs, Charlotte Bostwick of Mount Airy. Mrs. Breese and Mrs. Maulsby both made wills leaving their property to the surviving sisters in trust. By a singular coincidence the death of Mrs. Breese and of Mrs, Maulsby occurred on the same day and a few hours apart. They both died in July, 1802. Mrs. Mauls- by left a will made in November, 1886, un- der which she devised her entire estate to her two sisters, Mrs. Bostwick and Mrs. Breese, and the survivor of them in trust to be disposed of in a written instrument, which she, Mrs. Maulsby, would address to her t-vo sisters, or in the event of both dy- ing before her, to hér two nieces, Miss Louise D. Lovett and Miss Ida Carson. Mrs. Maulsby by a codicil made in May, 1889, directed. that any -real eotaee that she may purchase thereafter sliould go to her two sisters in trust, to be di of according to her written instructions in the written instrument mentioned in her will, In a codicil made in June, 1889, she stated that she had completed the purchase of several lots at Kalorama Heights, and had seiected four of them as the site of the memorial home, which she hoped to erect to the memory of her beloved mother, and directed that in case she did not survive long enough to carry out her intentions she charges her two sisters to:do so. The Aid Society Bequest, By a third codicil made in March, 1892, she bequeaths $30,000 to the Newsboys and Children’s Aid Society for the erection of a suitable building for the use and occupa- ticn of the children ahd newsboys be- friended by that society. This building she directed should be named “The George Maulsby Menorial Home” in memory of her husband. Mrs. Maulsby’s personal es- tate alone was appraised by the court at about $240,000. In September, “1892, shortly after Mrs. Maulsby’s death, her will and the three codicils, and the written instru- ment referred to in the will, were filed in the officer of the register of wills. Mrs. Bostwick declined to take out letters upon Mrs. Maulsby’s estate, and requested the court to issue the letters to Miss Lovett and Miss Carson. Subsequently, in Octo- ber, 1802, the court passed a decree admit- ting the will and the three codictls to pro- bate, and directed that the written instru- ment mentioned was not a part of the will, and that it be returned to Miss Lovett and Miss Carson. A few weeks ago Miss Lovett and Miss Carson filed their account of Mrs. Mauls- by’s personal estate, and it showed that they paid off certain claims and legacies aggregating between $15,0U0 and $16,000,and that they had declined to pay the legacy of $30,000 which Mrs. Maulsby left to the Newsboys and Children's Aid Society, and showed that they still had on hand a bal- ance of the personal estate of about $190,- 000, About a week after the filing of this account the society took proceedings in equity in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, stating that the executors of Mrs. Maulsby had refused to pay the legacy on the ground that the full corporate nam- ed had not been given in the codicil. The attorney, Mr. Reginald Fendail, after re- citing the details, asked that the $30,000 legacy be allowed. As stated above, the court today directed the executors to pay over to the society the full amount. Gartield and Children’s Hospitals Be- ques: This ends the litigation over the estate as far as the Children’s Aid Soclety is con- cerned. By the will of Mrs. Breese, how- ever, the sister of Mrs. Maulsby, legacies were left to the Garfield Hospital and the Children’s Hospital of this city, and Mr. Reginald Fendall last week began suit in Philadelphia to recover these two legacies, both of which Mrs. Breese’s executors re- fuse to pay. Mrs. Breese’s will is much like Mrs. Maulsby’s. It was dated March 20, 1888, and in it she gave her entire estate to her two sisters, Mrs. Bostwick and Mrs. Maulsby, whom she also appoints execu- trices in trust. By letter dated January 21, 1881, addressed to her two sisters, Mrs. Breese recited that she had made her will, whereby she had bequeathed her entire es- tate to her two sisters. In this letter she wrote that. they. knew how she.desired her estate to be divided, and felt assured that her wishes “‘would scrupulously be attended to.” An cng the bequests contained in this let- ter was the sum of $5,000 to the Children’s Hospital of this city and $50,000 to con- struct and endow a free gynecian hospital for poor and destitute women, tebe erected on the premises of the Garfield Memorial Hospital, and to be a branch of that in- stituticn, under the same trusteeship, but the funds to be kept separate. She also provided that the donation should be in memory of her mother, and that a suitable stone tablet was to be placed in the walls of the front hall. Admitted to Probate. Mrs. Breese’s will was admitted to pro- bate in Philadelphia in September, 1892, and the letter containing the directions as mentiored was admitted as a codicil. It is now sought to have the court grant a re- view of the settlement of Mrs. Breese’s es- tate. In March, 1893, Mrs. Bostwick, as executrix of Mrs, Breese, filed her account, showing a balance of about $160,000 of per- sonal property. It is alleged that Mrs. Bostwick presented her final account in court without giving notice to the Garfield Hospital or the Chil- dren's Hospital, both of which were en- titled to large sums, and obtained a decree that the bequests to those two institutions were invalid. The points raised under which the review is asked are that the in- stitutions did not have knowledge of their interests until after the estate was settled, and were therefore unable to be represented at the audit, ——— Excursion to Chapel Point.

It makes me laugh every time I see the judge’s name in print,” said Thomas A. Weaver last night. “Judge Dundy is quite tender-hearted and dreads to send a married man to jail. Well, there was a fellow on trial for passing counter- feit money. He was a single man, and the case against him was quite strong. Judge Baldwin was defending him, and seeing that the case was hopeless, Baldwin de- cided to take advantage of Judge Dundy’s weakness. He hunted up an old lady who had five children, ranging from eight years to eight months old, and had her imper- sonate the supposed wife and children of the prisoner. All through the trial they sat, often weeping. The man was found guilty. Three days later, when the prisoner Was brought up to be sentenced, the woman and children were brought in and Judge Baldwin, who is very dramatic, made a plea for the man and his family of little ones, who would suffer if the father was sent to prison. Baldwin wept, the court wept, the prisoner pretended to weep, as did the woman and the children. When the court had wiped away the tears he talked severely to the man and then gave him one day in jail and $10 fine. Later on, when he learned how he had been deceived, he became so angry that it was weeks be- fore he would speak to Judge Baldwin. When the joke got out every one twitted the court. After that the sight of a hand- kerchief applied to the eyes in Judge Dun- dy’s court was Hable to get the prisoner ten years.” ————+e+_____ ‘The Emperor of Austria. From the Pall Mall Budget. The Emperor of Austria is a familiar personage to English people than his still beautiful consort, who has so often been seen riding to hounds in Ireland end Cheshire, and whose love of the sea has brought her into contact with many of our compatriots in the Mediterranean and eise- where. now in his sixty- fourth year, has a tall, soldier-like figure, owing his slim proportions and erect bear- ing to the immense amount of active ex- ercise which he has taken throughout his life. On his well-marked and me features there is now si an impress of melancholy, which does not, however, obliterate the kindly expression especially noticeable in his eyes and mouth. He wears whiskers and. a full mustache, trimmed less after the Austrian fashion, but his is close shaven and his well-shaped is bare. Simple and laborious in his habit the emperor rises every morning at 5, de- votes the earlier hours to the affairs of state, entering into the minutest details. He is not a brilliant man, but fair abilities and long experience enable him to deal effectively with the problems of govern- ment. He daily drives out in a plain open carriage with an aid-de-camp and one chas- seur in uniform, but without escort, out- rider or police. Art is his hobby. No mean draughtsman himself, he delights in visit- ing studios, and he personally superintends alt the plans for building or repairing the imperial palaces. He is a devout Catholic and most strict in all religious observances. eee Extended His Congratulations, From Truth. The doctor was young, but pompous in his manner. He had been fairly successful, and he had a very good opinion of himself. He was in his consultation room when some one pushed the door open and began: “Oh, doctor, I wanted to ask you——” “Sir, don’t you know that I’m engaged?” — the doctor, icily, turning toward the joor. “No! Is that so?” asked the man in the doorway in surprise. “Certainly it is, sir.” “Dear me!” exclaimed the caller. “Really, I'm very glad to hear it. Let me congrat- ulate you, doc. You must be very proud of it when you speak of it to casual callers. But that’s the way it is the first time. By the way, I dropped in to tell you that baby’s got the measles, and I wish you'd come to the house some time today.” ——_+- 0-2 ___ Judge ‘Teller of Auburn, N.
