Miss Ella V. Van Wende), the last of six recluse sisters who lived la the somber, dusty house of mystery at Fifth avenue and Thirty-ninth street, joined the others Sunday in the family vault in Trinity cemetery- The simple funeral services were attended by 19 persons and a dog. The dog, a fat white poodle named Tobey (The last of a line of Tobeys) was the living thing to which Miss Wendel could show affection. It lay during the services in front of her coffin, at the end of the dark ball facing a carved oak staircase.

When the coffin was carried out to hearSe, Tobey followed as far as- the door, looked at the crowd of sightseers in front of the houge, and retired again. Electric lights and a telephone, installed last week, hecalded the final break-down of ihree generations of resistance to the advance of modern science. The nouse, a fortress of the Victorian age surounded by skyscrapers and the roar of midtown traffic, had always been lighted by gas and candles and heavily shuttered from the outside world. There were few flowers at the funeral. A bunch of orchids pinned to the mas'sive oak front door represented probably more luxury than Miss Wendel had ever known during her Ufa ones attending the funeral were thec lertymen, ily including the tendent of the Wendel eitate at Jr- vingtonon-Hudaon, Miss Wendel'i attorney, and half a dozen triendi of the only the aged spinster ever had.

She did not know how to spend money, she once she was never given any as a girl. She gave all the' affection of a starved life to the poodle, Tobey. But she was not miserly, the friend said. she chose to live a quiet life, and liked it- If the Wendel fortune is divided according to the wishes of Mrs.

Rebecca Wendel Swope, the elder sister who died last July, it will go to 14 specific charities, churches and public institutions, with small amounts to servants and old friends. Mrs. Swope was the only one rf the sisters who defied the family rules, and married. John Gotlieb, the elder brother of the sisters, who held them to the tenets laid down by the founder, is said to have forbidden the sisters to go to church again after, this marriage, because it was in church that Mrs. Swope met the man she married.

He therefore decided to bid two spades, knowing that if he were doubled he could bid three diamonds and that his partner would not assist the spade bid unless he had good spades. It always is dangerous to assist a partner's secondary bid; that is one made on the second or subsequent rounds of bidding, without at least four cards of that suit. After bid two spades, A bid three hearts and properly bid three spades. This bid is justifiable because of Y's strong holding in the spade suit.
