Report That Frick Will Give
Pittsburg a Great University.

Pittsburg, Pa, Nov 26.-'Henry Clay
Prick, the former coal magnate, will
give to the city of Pittsburg a great uni
versity that will make the much talked
of polytechnical school of Andrew Car
negie look like 30 cents.'
These were the exact words of a state
ment issued by close friend of Mr..
Frick, who is thoroughly conversant
with all of his affairs. The gentleman.
refused to permit his name to be used,
but there is not doubt of the anthem
ITCHY of the statement. Since Mr.. Fricl1
left the Carnegie Steel company, after
what he claimed was a rough deal from
Mr.. Carnegie, the two have been bitter
enemies. Mr.. Frick has done everything
in his power to make the efforts of Mr.
Carnegie look cheap.
Some years ago Mr.. Carnegie erected
what was then the finest office building
in Pittsburg. After the quarrel Mr.
Prick bought property all around it. and
has just finished the Frick building,
which towers above the Carnegie build
ing and makes it look like a pygmy
Directly across the street he will soon
commence the erection of a mammoth
hotel.
from the Schenley estate a plot of six
teen acres directly opposite the Carnegie
institute. and It was rumOred that he
would give Pittsburg an institution that
Mr.. Carnegie heard the story he offered
the city the polytechnic school. The site
has just been selected, and now comes
the announcement that Mr.. Prick will
again outstrip his former partner.
According to the authority given, Mr..
Prick will not only pay for the build
ings. but will donate the ground and
then set aside $2.500,O00 as an endow-
ment fund, and as much in addition as
may be necessary. Mr.. Carnegie in
making donations has always stipulated
that the city shall furnish the site and
pay for maintenance.
Mr.. Carnegie gave $4,000, 900 for the
technical school, and said he would give
as much more as was necessary Ac-
cording TO today's statement, no matter
on his buildings for the technical school,
Mr.. F'rick will double discount it. The
affair has already progressed so far that
Mr. Frick has several noted architects
travelling in Europe studying the most
elaborate styles of architecture.

A GIFT TO BAKER UNIVERSITY
Geo. E. Nicholson, of lola, Will Give
$25. 900 as q Memorial to HIS Wife.

lola. Kas. Nov. 26.-Mr. George e.
Nicholson of this city has authorized the
announcement that he would make
gift to Baker university at Baldwin of
$4,000.
This action on the part of Mr.. Mich
olson has a peculiar and pathetic inter-
est, for the reason that the gift was
originally planned by Mrs. Nicholson,
whose sudden death a week ago so
greatly shocked this entire community.
They had made no final decision as to
the particular purpose to which the gift
should b. deroted Mr.. Nicholson now
desires. however that it should stand as
a memorial to his wife and after con-
sultatiOn with President Murlin of
Baker here the decision was reached
that the sum should be set apart to en-
dow a char to be known as the Flor
ence b Nicholson chair Of philosophy
and the English Bible"
