KILLED WHILE AT PLAY.

Charles Macpherson. the 11-year-old son
of A. NJ Macpherson, commission mer-
chant, fell from trapeze in the stable at
his home. 216 Chattanooga street, yester-
day. and was so severely injured that he
died in a short time.
The boy. with two younger brothers,
had been playing in the stable all of the
afternoon. When Mrs. Macpherson called
them to supper about o'clock Charley
did not answer, and his two little brothers
informed their mother that he was lying
on the floor of tire stable and would not
talk to them. An older brother was sent
out to Investigate and found the lad un-
conscious He was carried into the house,
where he died before a physician could
reach him.
There were no visible signs of an injury,
but 1t is supposed that the boys neck was
broken. The boys who were with their
brother could give no very clear account
of the accident Coroner Hill was noti-
fed of the death, but did not have the
body removed to the Morgue. An au-
topsy and inquest will be held at the
house TODAY.

MISS HAZARD
IS INTERVIE WE'D
Wellesley's New Presi-
dent a Cultured Lady.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

BOSTON, March 9.-The Call cor
respondent to-day secured the first in
terview obtained by any newspaper
with Miss Hazard, the new president
of Wellesley College, and learned what
has not yet been made public, the fact
that she is a multi millionaire and that
she has a residence in California.
Il have for long time been inter
ested in Wellesley" she said when seen
at her magnificent mansion at Peace
dale, r. l., to-day. Through the in
1uence of Horace Scudder I was asked
to become a member of the board of
visitors for the departments of history
and economics. For five years I was
a visitor. When Mrs. Palmer was
president she wanted me to take an
English chair, but 1 did not find it
possible.
Il am much in favor of outdoor life.
College girls must have daily exercise.
l heartily approve of all outdoor sports.
1 realize, however, that they can be
carried TO excess, and should always
guard carefully any tendency in that
direction.
L shall not teach at all. 1t would
not be possible to find time"
Miss Hazard spends most OF her
time outdoors, wearing invariably the
short skirt She is a musician and ar
tist and poet, and has library OF
5000 volumes. Her residence is practlc-
ally public hall of music, art and
education
For generations the Hazards have
been very wealthy. In a great measure
the town owes it's prosperity ana hlgh
intellectual rank to the Hazards, VINO
have put them in touch with the pest
The social and intellectual life OF the
town centers in the handsome stone
building which is library and music
hal! in one.
From the townspeople l learned how
Miss Hazard has endeared herself to
everybody, rich or poor, old or young.
They never tire of singing her praises.
No. one in town is long sick unless MISS
Hazard knows it; no one is in trouble
and she not ready to sympathiZe and
holm She is not only one of the trus-
tees of the High School but chief di-
rector of the kindergarten and one or
the chief pillars of the Congregational
church. She has herself collected for
the library some of the most valuable
treasures that are on exhibition IN the
glass cases, and she rs ever aoulhS rare
curios and the newest books. Some OF
her own water colors, excellent in color,
drawing and simplicity adorn the
walls.
In this building are the King S
Daughters headquarters. Miss Haz-
zard is their president. There are also
rooms where kindergarten work is car
ried on 1t is through music however T.
that Miss Hazard has been most far
reaching in her influence. She herself
is a talented musician; not only pos
sessing a fine voice but composing for
the piano. About ten years ago she
was instrumental III organizing the
Narragansett Choral Society. There
are about one hundred members.

STRUCK THE LANDLORD.
Why Pugilist solly Smith Appeared
in the Police Court.

NEW YORK, March 9-Solly Smith, the
pugilist. who lives with his wife in Bar
bours Hotel Westchester, was arraigned
in the Police Court this morning, charged
with disorderly conduct John Barbour,
ant. According to the story told in court
Smith who had dined out last evening,
arrived at the hotel somewhat the worse
for liquor. Soon after reaching his room
bour made his way to the pugilist's room
and peered in at the door. He was greeted
with a right-hand jab in the stomach.
The blow doubled him up, and the pugil-
ist Strengthened him out again with a
wicked uppercut on the chin. Barbour
quickly summoned q policeman and had
Smith arrested Barbour refused to press
his complaint against Smith, saying he
was a very good fellow when sober. The
ma agistrate thereupon discharged him.

How II Would be Done.

In tho th'clily settled parts OF the
United States there Is enough land to
ma ntuin three or four times our pres.
cnt population, lying unused, because
its owners IRE holding II for higher
prices and immigrants arc forced past
this unused land TO seek homes where
their labor will be far less productive.
In every city valuable lots may be
seen lying vacant for the same reason.
II the best use Of land be tho test,
then private property In land Is con-
demncd, as IL Is condemned by every
other consideration, 1t is rs wastcful
and ncer,ain mode OF securing the
proper use OF land as the burning
down of houses Is OF roustng pigs
What /, therefore, propose, is the
simple, yet sovereign, remedy, which
will raise wages, increase the earnings
of capital, exit pate pnupcrIsn, abol'

ploymcnt to whoever wishes 1t, AFFORD
free scope to human powers, lessen
crime, elevate morals and tasto and
intelligence, purify government and
carry civilization toyet nobler heights,
is to appropriate rent by taxation.
In this way the ate may become
the universal landlord without calling
herself so, and without assuming Il
single new function, In fora, the
ownership of land would remain just
as now. No owner of land need be
dispossesscd and no restriction need
be placed upon the amount Of land
anyone could hold For, rent being
taken by the state in taxes, land, no
matter in whose name 1t stood, or in
what parcels it was held, would be
really common property, and every
membe Of the community would par.
ticipatc in the advantages OF its own
ership. Henry George
