ROcKEFELLER'S BIG INSTITUTE
FOR MEDICAL RESEARCH Is
NEARLY COMPLETED.
"oiI King" Has Expended $1,000, 900
in Erection Of Building and Will
EndoW It.

NEW YORK, Jan. 2.-The Rookie
Teller Institute for Medical Research
is almost completed and will be ready
for its opening within a few days.
This institution was founded by John
D. Rockefeller is 1901. The immediate
cause of his action was the death of
his little granddaughter five years ago.
from dysentery. He felt that aplace in
which this and other diseases might be
studied by experts would be Of great
service and in a short time he had the
general plan of this institution in his
mind AS soon as it was founded and
preparations for plans and buildings
begun, the boards Of directors estab-
lished scholarships in various labora-
tories in this country, and sent several
physicians to Europe to pursue inves-
LEGATIONS there Meantime a site was
obtained in this city, at the foot Of
East Sixty ninth street. 1t covers
twenty-six city lots, and the main
building, five stories high, provides
for physiological, chemical and
archaeological laboratories, gives the
third and fourth floors to experimental
pathology and bacteriology, and the
fifth to pnotomicrography and general
photography. The first floor contains
the library and assembly hall and the
necessary administration offices. Be-
sides the main buildin there are sew
eral smaller buildings for special pur-
poses. For the building and equip
ment Mr. Rockefeller has given 49,
O00, 900 and it is understood than any
endowment needed in addition to
what mas been given, will be added.
The possibilities of good results from
an institution thus equipped and
maintained are almost beyond calcula-
ton. 1t is expected to offer such OPP
portunities for original work Of a most
useful kind as cannot be had else
where in the country, and it is ex-
pected that scientists in this country

BROTHER A FARMER.
He Never Had Political Ambitions and
Is Content With His Lot.

JACKSONVILLE, Mich, Jan. q
Hidden away in a farming community
some five miles from here lives Thos.
Garfield, only brother of the martyred
president.
Neither fame nor wealth has been
his portion. While his brother was
climbing the ladder ne was telling the
forest and harvesting crops.
He is now 70 years Of age and Is
sturdy, in spite of his disabilities.
When but 10 years old he met with a
permanent injury from overtaxing
himself in lifting, and he now walks
with difficulty.
This does not keep him from work
ing; it only hampers him; for ne still
finds his way to the fields to husk corn
and see that matters are looked after.
Mr.. Garfield came to Michigan near
ly, forty years ago, buying the farm he
now owns, and he has not been off the
place half a dozen times since.
Il suppose you will think it funny
but 1 have never been in Washington
said he After James had been elect
ed president I went to Mentor to visit
him for a week before he was inaugu-
rated. While there he told me that 1t
was the worst thing that could nave
happened to him. He wanted to go tc
the senate where he thought he could
accomplish more good; but the pres
idency was forced upon nim."
In his simple way Mr. Garfield is
immensely proud of his brother; ant
one of his cherished possessions is

dead president

land with me and put me on the train

THE GOD OF WAR.

D1usterInE Mars md His Name Month";
the ThrncIan OF the Twelve
Mars was not u favorite among the
classic Greeks, nor is his name month
great favorite among the Gothic
moderns. The god of war was a bar
barian intruder in the Olympian circle.
There was something Thracian, and by
that token crude and unworthy in his
hummer. He was more OF a blusterer
than a fighter. and Homer narrates
with evident relish how Pallas Athene
tumbled him over In combat. his vast
bulk covering several acres. OF wild
aspect. untutored ways and Indifferent
wits. he had little to recommend him
but his immoral origin.
Such also Is the month that has taken
the war gods name. One poet notes
It's ugly looks and threats" "A half
Wild creature cast from natures lap"
another calls it. The proverb mad as
March hare says the same thing
with less reticCnce. English people
call the month March Manyweath-
crs' and thereby intimate their doubt
OF its capacity for sustained purpose.
1t is the Thraciau of the twelve, as
September IS the TyriIn. There IS
something clustering and barren in its
aspect. rs there is In what people cail

MUSIC STRINGS.
The Great ArnOunt OF Material re
CURED to Meet the Demand.

The Great Amount OF Material RE-
CURED TO Meet the Demand.
s'One Of the most generally accepted
but mistaken IDEAS that are entertained
by the people OF this country said a
travelling representative of a CoreiSn
mandatory OF gut strings. lis that
strings used ON musical Instruments
are manuflctured from catgut. If that
were true the cats in this world would
have been DIFFERENTIATED many years
ago III supplying the market with ma
terfll for musical instrument strings.
...Fhe fact is that they are manufac-
ture,l from tie intcstincs OF sheep. and
in obtaining enough raw material even
from these animals the manufacturers
at times find difficulty.
THE only string made from the in
tcstincs OF The feline Is that used for
surgical purposes - FOR sewing up
wounds one would be amazed to
Know that there are millions OF mu-
steal instrument Strings used IN North
America alone. and Just think where
the tablIics would be il they had to
supply the consumption.
Another amazing thing Is That there
are over 200 different grades Of musical
Instrument strings. The demand for
strings in North America is Increasing
every year. especially in the south and
IN Mexico. There are more guitar
strings sold in Mexico than any other
kind, but through the south the banjo
string is still popular, despite the fact
that every year has marked a slight but
gradual falling or in the demand.'-
