NOT A DOLLAR FOR CHARITY
Russell Sage's Fortune to His Wife,
VIII to Be Contested by
Relatives.

New York July 26.-The World
tomorrow will say: Every dol
lar of Russell Sage's great fortune
is left to Mrs. Sage by a will made
in 1907, except an Insignificant
bequest made to Mrs. Fannie
Chaplin, of Oneida N. Y, an
only sister, who died two years
ago.
The will is to be read at the
home of Mrs. Sage at No. 637 5th
avenue today and will be offered
for probate Immediately. 1t will
undoubtedly be contested by the
Troy relatives of Mr.. Sage, VINO
will charge that the 1901 will was
made after a mental breakdown on
the part of Mr.. Sage and that
Mrs. Sage exerted undue influence
over him in the distribution of his
wealth.
Not one dollar of the fortune is
left to charity. The only contri-
button Mr.. Sage ever made during
his life time for this purpose was
when, after a years solicitation by
Mrs. Sage, he contributed $50, 600
to build a wing Of the Presbyter-
ian hospital, where Mrs. Sage was
a president. The fortune Of Mr..
Sage, which is popularity believed
to be SToo. 900, 900 and even
thought to be greater by the best
informed financial men Of Wall
street, amounts to only 500, ,ooo,-

been pushing this matter with all
his might for the last three months
and every time something would
come up to delay it and that he
was getting discouraged.
An ordinace was read fixing the
rates that cab men and livery men
should charge passengers in the
city limits. 1t was referred to the
proper committee.
Alderman Burton stated that be-
fore the council adjourned that he
would like to bring up the tele-
phone question, but it was objected
to on the ground that it was late
and they had not time to give it.
Alderman Temple said that they
would need half a day to do justice
to the phone proposition and that
when they got startgd they wanted
to find out just why chickasha
couldn't have reasonably good
phone service. The matter will pro-
baby come up at the meeting Sat.
urdad morning.

MAY 7AKE CASH OR LAND
When the Final Allotment is complet-
ed in the Five Tribes.

Muskogee, l. T., July "a
When the final allotment Of lands
Is completed in the FIVE tribes. ac
cording to the present figures of
the Dawes Commission, there will
be several thousand allottees in the
Cherokee Nation who will not have
land to select, In the Greek nation
there will be a surplus of over 400, :
600 acres that will not he allotted
at all. In the Seminole nation there
will be but two or three thousand
acres surplus, and that will be of
little value. In the Choctaw and
Chickasaw nations there will be a
combined surplus of land that will
amount to between two and a half
and three million acres. There is
a great deal Of this excellent land.
In the Cherokee nation where an
allottee has not received an allot.
ment he will receive in money an
amount equal to twice the apprais-
ed value of an allotment, or $3.50.
Allottees who have selected part of
an allotment and cannot find land
they want to complete their allot-
ment by fling upon may take the
remainder of their allotment in
money. In the nations where there
is surplus the land will be sold
under the direction Of the secretary
of interior and the prcceedswill go
into the treasury Of the nations in
which the land lies. II is not likely
that this distribution sale will take
place until all allotment questions
are settled. The money that goes
to Cherokee allotees in lieu Of land
comes out Of the Cherokee treasury.
This will also be paid under the
supervision Of the secretary of in
terror.

O'Clock at her home on south 3rd
street between Colorado and Kan.
sas avenues
Mrs. limerick was awakened by
the crying of the child and went
out ard found it lying on the floor
OF the clubhouse. 1t was clothed
in little cloak and a cap. A
small bundle of clothes lay beside
II.
A woman carrying a grip and a
small baby was seen to get off the
north bound train and asked the
time Of the departure Of the next
train. She came tosard the city.
A man noticed her at the depot
last night; when he heard about
the baby this morning told the Of
hcers that he could identify the
baby If he could see the wrap il
had on. He went with the Of
hcer to Mrs. Emericks' and said
that the baby was the same as the
one he han seen at the depot and
that should he see the woman he
could identity her by the grip she
carried. Officer Farmer kept
watch OF the trains and found the
woman at the nine O'Clock Rock
Island ready to. leave. She was
identified and taken to the police
station where she confessed to be-
ing the mother Of the child. She
gave her name as Nora Huffman,
Of Granite, Okla, aud said
that her folks would not allow her
return home with the child, but
that she could 90 back alone and
she thought that that would be
the best way to get rid of the
child, thinking that it would fall
into good hands. The woman ap-
pears to be about twenty or twenty
two years Of age. of good appear
ance and well dressed.
The baby is a bright healthy
little fellow and Mrs. limerick is

already been numerous requests
for it and should it not be returned
to its mother, which is very un-
likely, II will find a good home
somewhere.
After an investigation by the Of
cials the woman was allowed to re.
turn home and if the parents will
allow the child to be brought
home she will return for It. The
father Of the child Is said to be a
man by the name Of Ray, of Altus,

PAVING MATTERS DELAYED By
ABSENCE FROM THE CITY OF ENG
INEER COLBY
INVESTIGATE PHONE SERVICE
No Action Taken at Meeting Yesterday
on Carnegie Library
Proposition.

The city council met in regular
session yesterday afternoon. The
first business taken up was that of
passing the ordinance fixing the
tax levy for the coming year. 1t
was found on investigation that the
assessor in transcribing his records
had made numerous mistakes which
when recti6ed would make a mate
rial difference in the levy. 1t was
moved by the council that Mr.. JEFF
fries, the assessor, who is now in
Odell, Neb.. be wired to report
heIe at once and correct the errors.
The matter of the cargegie Lib
rary came up and while no action
was taken as to what the city would
do in the matter it was the sense
Of the aldermen that the school
board secure the upper floor for
use during the coming session as
high school.
The petition OF the property
owners along 9TH street to have
the city put the streets to grade
and they would then put down side
walks came up next. The commit
tee reported that if the property
owners would put down the walks
the city would do the grading. This
did not seem to suit the the pro-
perty owners and the matter was
discussed pro aud con with the re-
suit that the committee is to have
another meeting with them on Mon
day at two o. clock when it is hop
ed that they will get together and
improve the street.
Mayor Venable brought up the
matter Of. making another collection
on the street tax which was referr-
to the proper committee. Chief
Hopkins was asked TO have a re-
port ready at the next meeting
showing how much and what per
cent of the tax had been collected
up to date.
The council remitted the fine Of
Jerry Anderson, colored who been
charged some tins ego with steal
ing coal from the Rock Island. It
was proven that he was not guilty.
An ordinance was passed fixing the
street commissioners salary at 500
per month.
The paving proposition came up
but the council was unable to do
anything on account of the absence
from the city of ar. Colby. Mayor
VenabIe and others of the council
men expressed themselves in no
uncertain words as to the action of
Mr.. Colby in abseuting himself
from the city without due motto or
leave when such important matters
as paving aud the water and sewer
extension were on hand. The citi-
zens are ready to begin paving and
the city engineer must necessarily
prepare the specifications. Mr..
Colby could not be located and has
been expected back since last Sun
day and the proposition is now
waiting on him. de Is also needed
on the sewer work to look after
that. The council decided to wait
until Saturday morning until 10
o'clock and if he IS not here by
that time another man will be en-
gagged to make the paving plans.
Mayor Venable said that he had
