"JOHN P. FrNDLEY, Omaha, Neb.
. "P. W. DB LAMATER, Omiha, Neb,"
Martha J. Kills, who executed the above
will, was the widow of -Francis M. Ellis,
a former well-known architect nnd promi
nent Matron of Omaha. Mr. Kills died in
JanuHy, ln99; for some years prior to Ms
iloath li was an invalid: his life insurance,
amounting to Jfi.OCti, was about to lapse; Mr.
Ellis appealed to his relatives, in vain, to
come to his assistance with the necessary
money to keep the Insurance In force.
Mount Calvary commandery No. 1, Knights
Templar of Omnha. came to his rescue
and for nearly three years, until the death
of Mr. Eilis, advanced tho funds to pro
tect this Insuruuce tor his wife, paying
out in cash on the policies J74I.43. Mr.
EU!s was the owner of a home In the
western part of tho city, upon which there
was a mortgage. At his death Mrs.
Martha J. Ellis, his widow, received the
lite insurance, p:.nl off the mortgage on
her home, and had left a comfortable sum
to her creoit In the bank. February 15,
1U01, shortly before her death, Mrs. Ellis
made a will, leaving the major portion of
her estate to three of the Masonic orders
In Omuha, as- the will shows. The will
was In a ecu led envelope, addressed to the
recorder of tho commandery. It was re
ceived by .Tudgo E. K. Long, jecorder of
Mount Calvary commandery No. 1, Knights
Templar, and by him deposited In a safo
In the vault at Masonic temple. The
sealed envelope was to tie opened by hini
at h-r death, which - was done, O. H.
Nicholson being present with Judge Long
nt the time. It was then filed for probate
In the county court. The Masons took
charge o? Mrs. Ellis' remains. In accord
ance, with her duslro expressed In the will,
expending ll'W EO, which, together with the
amount advanced on insurance policies
(rr.Tai and :!"?.50 on account of Mr. Kills'
fur'ral and dues, made a grand total of
M'j5.23.

When the question of admitting the Will
of Mrs. Ellis to probate came up before

wrote the will iji her own bund, on two
sheets of paper lorn from ft ledger: that
the sheets were consecutively numbered
pages 1, 2. 3 and 4: that Mrs. Ellia brought
the will down to the ofllce of L. H. Kent,

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
City Attorney Will Mora in N Street Open
ing at Once.
IMPROVEMENT MEETS POPULAR APPROVAL
With Thoronghfnre to River Several
Loral Problems, Among; Them
That of Garbage Disposal,
Aro Solved!.
City Attorney Murdock Is making prep
arations td comply with the ordinance
which will be passed on next Monday night ,
by the council In relation to the opening ;
of N street. This ordlnnnce, which was
read for the second tlmo on Thursday
nlaht. directs the oHy attorney to at once
commence condemnation proceedings. The
property to be acquired by the city for
the opening of tho street commences at
the east line ot Maxwell Si Freeman's ad
dition and extends to Thirteenth street.
All of the members of the council and the
city offlcUV'S In general appear to favor the
condemnation proceedings and the opening
of the street as soon ns possible. One
member of the council aald yesterday
afternoon that by opening a thoroughfare
to the river the question of the disposition
of garbage would be solved. The Inten
tion Is for the city to secure a dump just
as soon as the street la opened and to per
mit any person with a license to haul gar
bage. Thla matter of license Is one of the
details which has not been seriously con
sidered, but It Is safe to say that the usual,
garbage haulers' Ilcenso will be charged.
To property owners who desire to haul
their own refuse to the city dump a smsll
fee will be chartrod. For years the city
has had trouble about getting to the river
with garbage. Coancllmen say that, the
only solution of this problem Is the open
ing of a paved road to the river and the
city acquiring a river frontage for dump
purposes. The grading cannot be done
this year, but the city officials think that
If the condemnation proceedings can be
carried through during the winter th9 work
can commence In tho spring.

GiRL LIFE IN FAR "OFF INDIA

' Heathendom.
Miss Annie E. Sauford, whose home is In

engaged in missionary work ut Uuntur,
India, during Ibo last' Bcven years, ad
dressed a fair sized audience ut Kountse
Memorial church last ulsht on the llfo of
Christian and non-Christian people In that j
far-away country. Misa Sanford described
tho llfo and education 'of a heathen girl
from the time of her birth until Bhe had
reached the ago of womanhood, and then
pictured the same ch'l brought up urnl.r
the tutelage cf a Christian mother, but
amidst tho samo surroundings.
She said that all parents wnnted boys
In India, as girls ore more expensive to
rals, and leave home ot so cmly un age.
It Is a common expression, "Only a girl,"
when a baby is born. She then described
the babyhood of the little one living In a
mud hut, with a thatched roof und how
she enters school at' an early age. She
told of the cattle living In the same hut
with the family, only In the rear, but said
that there waa but one doorway and that
was through the front, and when the cat
tle aro housed for the' night they pass In
through the parlor, and ont tho same way
in the morning. The girl baby has her
marriage arranged for soon after her birth,
and muiit leave school at 6 years of age
to have the ceremony performed. Bhe then
returna to. school and finishes her educa
tion. When the baby Is named the parents
choose the ugliest name posslblo so tho
Gods will not think they care for the rhlld,
their belief being that they will not take
the trouble to cause Its death if it is not
thought of some consequence. Before the
missionaries entered the country there
were no schools for girls, the parents not
believing them worthy of receiving an edu
cation. Many other peculiar customs and
beliefs were interestingly described by the
speaker, and then a picture of the im
proved condition of life was drawn where
the family hud embraced Christianity.
