MABEL JORDAN A VICTIM OF AMBITION

OAKLAND. March 30.Ñ After an illness of only two weeks, Mabel F. Jordan, daughter of William H. and Mrs. Mary F. Jordan and niece of County Clerk Jordan, died at 5 o'clock this afternoon at the home of her mother, on Twenty-third street. Miss Jordan was a native of this city, aged 19 years, and was very popular in local social and musical circles. She was a member of the famous Hayden trio. Last year the deceased graduated from the Oakland High School, and since last September she had been attending the State University at Berkeley. Her death was accelerated by her ambition in trying to make up six months' arrears in her studies at the university. Two weeks ago the severe mental strain resulted in an attack of spinal meningitis, which was complicated with pneumonia.
