Rosa IS. Wlnans. millionaire, and Miss

child of a villaire Inrkeper. proves upon
tiie death of the mun of money to bo
the strongest IrlenUshlp of his life. for.
now that his will Is opened and rea.i.
It Is found trial the Ilt'le girl who used

a beautiful oune woman of 19 years)

The frionrtr-l.lt between the man and
child becan 13 years ago. when Ross
Ft. Wlnans used to go to the beach at
Fateman's point and fish. Then the
child would scamper along the beach,
d-mand of him that he put up his
tackle and "play with her." and he
nver failed to do so. no matter how
good the fish were biting.
Will Kail ef Harpriaes.
Kven aside from this generous re
membrance, the will t.f Ross Wlnans
has caused many surprises in tnis City
It had been believed that the old
trouble between the father and his son.
Thomas It. Wlnans, the trouble that
m-as caused by the latter's marriage In
Kurope to Victoria, lelgado. a Spanish
dancer. whoe sister married the Rajah
of Karpnthake. had been amicably set
tled. But the will leave the son only
the Income from 1300. 000 and that In
trust. The executors. Rosa W. Whis
tler, a brother-in-law of the decedent,
and tieorge RevlNon. a step-brother of
Mr. Wlnans' moihj-r, are to receive the
residuary estate.
After the death of the son the an
nuity is to descend to his child. In no
raw will any bequest accrue to the
Spanish daughter-in-law.
5n-ln-l.nr ITInre fat Off.
Another remarkable fact about the
testament is that no mention is made
of the I'rince le Barn et t'lialois. who
married Miss Peatrlce Wlnans. Neither
are the children of this couple men
tioned. The I'rlncess died In 108. three
years after her marriage, leaving two
young children, and a will that gave
her estate, valued at something more
than 3U').00O. to her hnsband.
Ross Wlnans combatted this will be
fore the American courts. The Prince
came over and testified. It was the
contention of Mr. Wlnans that a part
of hla daughter's estate should be In
sured to her children. The Prince
claimed absolute control of It and
on.
Family Life Clouded.
The latter years of Mr. Wlnans were
clouded by many famfly afflictions. It
was in a single year 190i that Bis
son's elopement and the- deaths of bis
beloved wife and Ms titled daughter
occurred.
The aging man brought home his
dead child and wife from Europe and
straightaway went Into seclusion In his
Baltimore mansion.
He saw almost no one. never visited
public places and seldom attended even
the smallest gathering of the most
intimate friends.

MARY BAKER EDDY
WILL HELD VALID
Supreme Court Decides That
Bequest to Christian Sci
ence Church Stands.
CASE SENT BACK TO TRIAL
Son of Dead Leader Loses right to
Have Residuary Clause of Tes
tament Declared Invalid
by Court.
CONCORD. N. H May 7. The clause
of the will of Mr Mary Baker G.
Eddy, founder of the Christian Science
Church, bequeathing the residue of her
estate, valued at about 12,000.000. to
the First Church of Christ, Scientist,
of Boston, creates a "valid trust." in
the opinion of the Supreme Court of
New Hampshire, announced today.
The court holds that the "residuary
clause Is not a gift to a church, but a
gift for religious purposes, sustainable
as a charitable trust."
The court's decision was given In
the bill in equity brought by George
W. Glover, of Lead. S. D Mrs. Eddy's
son. In the Merrimack County Superior
Court to have the residuary clause de
clared Invalid on the ground that it
violated a New Hampshire statute lim
iting the amount which can be be
queathed to any single church
Glover sought. In case the residuary
clause should be declared Invalid, to
have the residue divided between him
self and Dr. Ebenexer J. Foster-Eddy,
of Waterbury, VL, Mrs. F.ddy's adopted
son. as the next of kin. The case must
now be tried In the Superior Court.
In its opinion the court holds that the
sole request of the plaintiff is for ad
vice aa to his rights.
An amendment may be filed by the
plaintiffs, according to the decision,
since, should they be able to show that
the bequest is for the pecuniary pri
vate profit of the church, the trust
would be voided. '

MARYLAND SITUATION MIXED
Taft Men, Instructed for Roosevelt,
May Be Outcome.
BALTIMORE. May 7. The closeness
of the struggle between President Taft
and Colonel Theodore Roosevelt for
control of Maryland's .16 votes In the
National Republican "convention was
emphasized today, when complete re
turns from yesterday's primaries
showed that the results depended on
one county, which on the face of the
returns gave Roosevelt a majority of
80.
Putting this county (Howard) In tho
Roosevelt column gave the Colonel 68
delegates to the state convention, one
more than a majority. The three How
ard County delegates counted for Taft
would give him the primary victory by
the same margin.
Taft Leaders Hold to Hope.
Complete unofficial returns received
today by the state Roosevelt commit
tee and all the Baltimore newspapers
agreed In giving Colonel Roosevelt a
majority in Howard County of 80-odd
votes, but Taft leaders were unwilling
tonight to concede that their opponent
had won.
"It would be improper for me to con
cede anything at this time, when
Maryland's IS votes to the National
convention hang on less than 100
votes." said John B. Hanna, chairman
of the Republican state committee and
leader of the Taft forces.
Another feature of the day was the
development of the possibility that the
Individual delegates elected to the
state convention would Include a ma
jority of Taft men. even though their
Instructions by the county preference
vote might bind them to vote for a
Roosevelt delegation to the convention.
The Taft leaders made this claim.
Friends May Be In Control.
It was pointed out that President
Taft's friends might control the con
vention, force the adoption of a con
servative platform and send to Chicago
a delegation which would be ready to
abandon Roosevelt as soon as they
considered they had fulfilled their le
gal duties by voting for blm on the
first ballot. None of the leaders, how
ever, made such prophecies.
Director McKlnley, of President
Taft's campaign. Issued a statement
today, which said:
"Under the rules and regulations of
the Republican party, as announced by
the Republican National committee.
President Taft Is entitled to and will

Committee Haa Fixed Rul.
Mr. McKlnley explained that the call
of the Republican National committee
issued last December provided rules
under which delegates should be chos
en, containing a clause that "in no
state shall an election be so held as
to prevent the delegates from any Con
gressional district and their alternates
being selected by the Republican elec
tors of that district."
'On the strength of this rule and in
view of returns from the First and
Fifth Maryland districts. Mr. McKin
ley said that four of Maryland's dele
gates would go to President Taft.
Replying to this statement. Colonel
K. Carrlngton. chairman of the Roose
velt committee, said:
"The call of the National convention
must be subject to the law of Mary
land, which provides that a majority
of votes in the state convention en
titles the candidate having such ma
jority to the entire 18 delegates from
Maryland."
No change developed in the Demo
cratic situation, except to Insure for
Speaker Clark several delegates al
ready counted for him on the strength
of the indicated county majorities. The
Clark men have enough votes to con
trol the state convention. The county
preferential vote bound 81 delegates to
Clark. 44 to Wilson and 4 to Harmon.
VXDERWOOD IS IX EARNEST
Candidate Denies He Is In Race In

WASHINGTON, May 7. Oscar W.
Underwood, of Alabama, the majority
leader of the House, today declared that
his Presidential candidacy was not in
tho Interest of Governor Harmon or
arnr candidate other than himself.
This was In reply to a statement of
William J. Bryan, in a speech at Chilli
cothe, Ohio, last night, that he had
heard that the Underwood delegates
chosen In Georgia and Florida were in
reality Harmon men.
"It is Impossible for a man in public
life." said Mr. Underwood, "to keep up
with all the misrepresentations made
about him, but I wish to say that there
is no warrant In fact for the statement
made by Mr. Bryan. I am making the
