"HIDEOUs WOODEN SEATS"
President EIiOt's objection to the
Soldiers Field Gridiron.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Feb. 15.-President
Charles Eliot. Of Harvard University. in
his annual report for the lSeS-99 term, says:
The spirit in which the intercollegiate
sports are conducted has been improved
much OF late. but there is ample room for
further Improvement. Some players and
colleges still seem TO think at times that
they have something TO gain from victory
in sports which will compensate for the
discredit of violating the rules or taking
unfair advantages. Ii is IN objection to
football that an immediate advantage may
accrue from violations Of the rules which
spectators cannot see or even the umpire
detect. The pecuniasy aspects of the
sports are not agreeable. More and more
thousands of hideous wooden seats In high
banks are built every year on Soldiers
Field and more and more gate money is re-
ceived. Even the students must pay large
entrance fees to see the interesting games.
On the other hands, the players think that
all their wants as to uniforms and personal
services should be literally supplied from
the abundant gate money. 1t is an made
quate Offset to these drawbacks that a
small portion of the gate money has been
applied for several years 70 permanent i'm
provements on Soldiers Field, for the
grounds cannot be made beautiful so long
as squalid banks OF seats are permitted to
deface them"

VANDERBILT TRUST FUND.
Inheritance Tax Must BE Paid on Five
Million Dollars.

NEW YORK, Feb. 15.-Surrogate Fitz-
gerald to-day handed down a decision de-
nying the application Of Henry Il. Ander-
son for a court order declaring the trust
fund of $780, J0. created by the will of the
late William H. Vanderbilt, exempt from
inheritance tax. The surrogate directs that
the tax be assessed against the fund. IN
der the will of William III. Vanderbilt q
trust fund of $.0OO.OOO was created for the
benefit of his grandchildren-the children
of the son, Cornelius Vanderbilt. Cornelius
Vanderbilt hello the fund In trust, with dis
cretionary power TO distribute IL among
his children. The counsel for the Wander
bilt heirs contended that the grandchildren
of William H. Vanderbilt had a vested
right in the fund from the moment that
William II. Vanderbilt's will was pro-
bated. AS the will of William III. Wander
bilt was admitted TO probate before the
inheritance tax law went into force IL was
commended the fund was not subject to tax.
The surrogate's decision, in effect, holds
that the children took title in the fund
only at its distribution, under the will OF
Cornelius Vanderbilt. and that. therefore
it is subject under the inheritance tax.

What will be the effect on the general
mental attitude of human life if social
ism should predominant? What will
be the effect on the creeds and dopmas
Gods and temples? The effect of the
socialistic idea possessing would
change the whole attitude of human
life toward the future. Professionalism
stands by menacing the integrity of
the human soul. The element of fear
has been dominant in man for centu-
ries. They are afraid of the Gods they
worship and must propritiate them.
They must sacrifice to their unknown
gods more of the fruits of one kind of
monopoly or another; perhaps by
founding universities or theological
seminaries.
IF we really had democracy, if it
were fact, instead of dogma-in
state and in industry-we could not es-
cape the democracy in ethics. No hui
man being has the right to impose the
ethical or religious authority on an
other human being. All imposed au-
thoriry is essentially aesthetic The
man who seeks to coerce another into
accepting his views is aesthetic and
cannot believe in God. What you call
religious authority is essentially mo-
nopoly. 1t is too late to reform soci-
ETY. in America. 1t is no longer ques-
tion of whether you will have a social
revolution or not; it is simply a ques-
ton of what kind of revolution are
you going to have. Revolution you are
sure to have. Socialism is only a liv-
ing religion, only not on hesprogram
of faith that is offered at the present
time,''

SHORTAGE IN STATE FUNDS.
Which Legislature May be Asked to
Make Good.

Des Moines, Jan. 19.-One OF the
most sensational matters that has ever
developed in connection with the
management of state institutions, and
which is now fully expected to be
aired in detail during the Legislative
session this winter, relates to the
shortage of DR.. III. A. Gilman, late
superintendent of the insane asylum at
Mt. Pleasant, in his accounts. DR..
Gilman was the trustee of large funds
placed in his hands for various pur-
poses while he was superintendent of
the asylum. Tt is now stated by
those familiar with the accounts that
the shortage runs up to about 10000,
and it is believed that there are items
not yet developed. 1t was known for
a long time. before the death Of DR..
Gilman that these accounts were in
bad condition, and that he was unable
to make a proper accounting for all
the moneys he had received. Since his
death the shortage has been growing,
and it is probable that the legislature
will be asked to make an appropriation
to make good the losses.
