GOV. ODELL'S CHARITIES BILL.
He Abandons His Original Plan TO Control
Patronage OF Institutions.


ALBANY, March 5.-Senator Ellsworth
to-day introduced the proposed State
Charities law recommended by Gov Odell.
II was referred to the Finance Committee.
The bill is changed from the tentative
draft. As introduced, the bill creates the
Office Of Fiscal Supervisor of State Chari-
ties.- who is to be appointed by the Gov
ernor aftIr the Legislature adjourns, for
a term Of five years and who is to receive
salary of 81, 900 and expenses. He is to have
an office in the Capitol, secretary, a stem
ographer and such other employees as may
be necessary. He is to have supervision Of
the State charitable institutions, the New
York State School for the Blind and the
Elmra Reformatory He is to visit each Of
the institutions at least twice in each
calendar year and examine into and report
the condition of all buildings, grounds
and other property connected with any
such institution, and into all matters re-
lating to its financial management. lie may
appoint, in his discretion, compe-
tent person to examine the books, papers
and accounts of any institution to the ex-
tent deemed necessary
The Fiscal Supervisor or the superin-
tendent or the steward OF any OF these
State charitable institutions may he re-
moved by the Governor for cause, after a
the bill introduced to-day, abandons the
main provision in the first Charities bill
submitted to the State Board OF Charities.
which provided that there should be
general superintendent of these institutions
10 be appointed by the Governor, who in
turn should appoint the superintendents and
stewards of these institutions. This was
the essence of the Governors attempt TO
control the State charitable institutions,
but evidently he has decided that he does
not care TO take the contract TO push II
through the Legislature.
In effect the bin centralizes the fnan-
cial management OF these institutions
in a State Fiscal Supervisor of Chari-
ties at Albany. who, instead Of the State
Comptroller. may revise the estimates
either as to quantity or quality of supplies
required for such institutions, and the
officers and employees in the State Charities
Estimate Bureau in the State Comptroller's
Office are. transferred TO the Office of the
State Fiscal Supervisor of Charities.
The local boards OF managers are left
as they are with their present powers prac-
tically undisturbed. Such also is the case
with the State Board of Charities.
Later Assemblyman Aids introduced this
bill in the lower House.

HOBSON FIGURES IN
YOUNG LADY'S folly

st. Louis, July 16.-But for the strong
arms of Captain Richmond Pearson
Hobson Miss May Cert of 1907 Lasalle
street, East st. Louis, would have been
drowned. She was standing on the
deck of river yacht when she passed
the naval officer swimming in the wa
ter. She had met him before, and as
he smiled at her, the girl called out
banteringly:
If should fall in, Captain Hobson.
would you rescue me?"
Il most certainly would" replied the
Captain. The words had hardly left
his mouth when there was splash,
and the girl sank in the waters of the
Mississippi.
Captain Hobson REALIZED the danger.
He saw the joke had been carried dan
gerously far, and started with long,
strong strokes for the spot where the
girl had sunk. Albro Gllberson OF Elsa.
ILL.,, his companion, swan with him.
To the terrified men and women on
the deck of the yacht 1t seemed an age
before Hobson reached the spot where
the white sailor hat was last seen. Sud
denly he Owed, and, after a few sec
onds, reappeared on the surface with
his arm grasping the shoulders OF the
struggling girl. 1t was all the two men
could do to keep the girls head above
water until the yacht was finally
brought so close that those on board
could assist in the rescue.
After vigorous pounding and ad-
ministration of restoratiyes Miss Cert
revived, very limp, but smiling, TO ona
of her girl friends she said: Il know
it was very foolish, but knew should
be rescued"
Then she looked at Captain Hobson,
who smiled rather grimly as he leaned
against the deck rail. He congratulated
her on her narrow escape from death
and went into the cabin to put on his
ilannels.

ed in II. but was willing to accommo.
tor said he did not wish to introduce
The resolution because he expected to
ask for appointment on the sub.Com'

pose a iunket for himself.
After the passage of the resolution
President pro TEN Frye, named these

the nominal author of the resolution
he must be appointed on the sub.Com.
mittee. Senator CoCkrell refuses fiat.

Blackburn is Indifferent. Senator Bur.
ton has led his colleagues to believe
