ROCKEFELLER MAKES
$10,000,000 GIFT
Benefactions of Oil Magnate to Gen.

Total Fifty.two Millions
of Dollars'
NEW YORK, July 9.—John D.
Rockefeller today Increased his dona
tions to the general education board by
a gift of $10,000,000, and also released
the board from the obligation to hold
In perpetuity the funds contributed by
him.
The gift brings Mr. Rockefeller's do
nations to the general education board
to *52,000,000.
■ It was contributed, Chairman Gates
of the board Bald, because the Income
available for appropriation had been
exhausted, with important needs un
provided for.
Mr. Rockefeller's action empowering
the board and its successors to dis
tribute the principal of the funds con
tributed by him was said to have been
taken in consideration of the possi
bility that some time the purpose of
the Rockefeller foundation might be
come obsolete.
Since Its foundation for higher edu
cational purposes In 1905 the general
education board has subscribed to tho
colleges of this country $3,937,000. The
colleges to which these subscriptions
have been made are to raise supple
mental sums amounting to $14,037,500.
Thus tar but one Institution has failed
to raise the supplemental fund.

MAN REPORTED DEAD
WALKS INTO SALOON
Undertaker Burled Somebody, but Re
turn of Supposed Corpse Disturbs
Equanimity
HACKENSACK, N. J., July 9.—"1
want a drink," said Arthur Zeeger,
when he entered Seiss' hotel in Hud
son street, Hackensack, yester
day morning. Ordinarily such a re
quest would not cause excitement, but
Zeeger's did, for dead men, as a rule,
don't swallow beer, and it was sup
posed Zeeger was In a $12 plot in the
New York Bay cemetery. Certainly
four of his friends had buried a man
there, and Zeeger's name was on the
coffin.
The body of a man was found in the
Hackensack river on Tuesday after
noon. Albert Coeyman said the dead
man was Zeeger, who had disappeared
on Sunday. Al Speight, for whom Zee- .
ger worked In Maywood, also made pos- :
ltive identification. Ricardo, an under
taker, learned Zeeger was insured, so
he provided a coffin, carriage and plot,
and the body was buried.
U/lon Zeeger's return yesterday the
\ocLt Insurance agent halted payment
of the policy, and Ricardo decided he
was out $100. He will ijot disturb the
dead man with the wrong label.

Guests Scurrying
PITTSFU'RO, July 9.—One shapely
lady in a sheath gown broke up it
lawn fete at Rellevue, th« fashionable
Pittsburg suburb, last night. Nobody
seems to know who she was or how
she came to intrude. The ladies of
Bellevue, who got off tho lawn as
quickly us they could drag their hus
bnnds and daughters with them, say
they do not want to know anything
about her.
There was a good crowd on the lawn
when an automobile chugged up with
a man whose face was not known and
the woman in the dress. There was a
scurrying to and fro and a sound like
families going home. The lady of the
sheath gown appeared to enjoy the
commotion she was creating for a time,
hut it did not seem so funny when she
found that she couldn't even buy ice
cream.
■he paraded the grounds for about
half an hour and by this time the fes
tival was pretty well broken up. She
then re-entered the automobile with
her companion and set off in the di
rection of Pittsburg.

equine in St. I.ouls is Babe, which ar- i
rived at the stable of A. E. Geitz, 47061
Easton avenue, in a package brought
by the equine Stork. Babe weighed \
thirteen pounds when he was born
was one inch less than a foot and a half j
high Friday, although he hud grown!
ecme since he was born. The little
pony Is about the size of a bulldog.
He k of n mouse-gray color and per
fectly formed. Babe is enjoying life
despite the hot weather, and though so
tiny, capers and romps like any other
colt. He is so small that Mr. Geltx can
pick him up in his arms easily.
Dr. Kammerer, a veterinary surgeon,
says that Babe is the smallest pony colt
he ever saw that lived.
Mr. Geitz expects Babe to remain a
miniature pony all his life.
Mr. Geitz is interested in raising
small ponies. A brother of Babe, born
last year, weighed twenty-five pounds
at birth. Mr. Geitz sold the little fellow
to a showman, and he Is on exhibition
at a summer garden.

fender
SYRACUSE, July 9.—Because it was
■ his fourth conviction for a felony,
Charles H. Chaffee was given a life
sentence at hard labor in Auburn
prison recently by County Judge W. M.
Ross. He was charged with burglary
lin the third degree in having stolen
chickens valued at $17.
He said that he stole to raise money
to buy medical appliances he needed,
j and blamed his wife because, he said,
she had the necessary amount and
owed it to him.
He may be paroled at the end of ten
years, but even then could be taken
back for any trivial offense to serve the
remainder of his life.

A Telephone Call
Is Not Always
Answered
Does a first insertion of a
want ad. ALWAYS "get re
sults?"
Does your party AL
WAYS answer your tele
phone call?
The chances of a second
insertion of a want ad. be
ing needed, and of a second
call over the phone being
required, are about equal.
In either case, IF NEED
ED, you should "try again."
