SCHOOLS A GREAT SUCCESS.
Group for the Carnegie Institute to
Be Completed.

Acting under instructions from Andrew
Of the Carnegie Institute in Pittsburg viii
let the contract early in July for the re.
mainder of the buildings, which will be
the most elaborate in the world. These
buildings. covering thirty-two acres and
costing $40, 600, 600, will be added to the
first group, which was completed last o.
tober.
When Mr.. Carnegie gave the first group
Of buildings he agreed that If the schools
were successful he would add to them from
time to time until the entire group was
completed; but that, 1t was then thought,
would be many years hence. However
Palmer & Hornbostel, the New York archi-
tects, prepared plans at the beginning ror
the entire group. Early last fall it was
known that the additions would have to be
erected at once.
When the schools opened last October
there were 1900 applicants for admission,
representing nearly every country What to
was decided to admit first those persons
from Pittsburg and western Pennsylvania
who had passed the highest examinations.
The others were notified that they would
have to wait until the new buildings were
erected.
Then it was decided that the entire group
of buildings would have to be completed at
once, an the technical schools committee
came to Washington last March and met
Mr. Carnegie and explained the situation.
Mr.. Carnegie was delighted that the
schools had been successful to such a point
as to demand the immediate completion Of
the group So he told them to 20 ahead
and finish the buildings and he would pay
the bills even If they exceeded his original
limit Of $4,000, CO.,

ROBBED IN CANTON.
Home Of Rv. DR.. Beattie Scene Of a
Daring Burglary.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 25.-Dr A Beat
tie, an American missionary, who arrived
here yesterday from China on the Siberia,
had an experience with Chinese robbers
shortly before he left Canton, where ha
has been stationed for years. DR.. Beatties
residence was in the heart of the city. An
chored in the river within less than 2O1
yards from his house was the United States
monitor Monadnock. Patrolling the streets
were native policemen who frequently
passed the house. One night DR.. Beattie.
his wife, children and servants were sud
denly awakened to find strong yellow
hand threatening them. A slant-eyed yell
low face confronted each of the Beauties,
while in the dim glow of fish lanterns gilt
tered sharp knives. The house was in the
possession of thirty robbers. Every mem
Der of the family was gagged and tied to
a bed post. The band of burglars then
stripped the house of everything that was
of any value.
Despite the fact that a United States
warship was lying so close to the HOUSE
and police patrols were passing at frequent
intervals, the robbers, heavily burdened
with their loot. made their escape. The
Chinese government promised reparation.
but up to the time that he left Canton DR..
Beattie had received nothing but apologies.

NEW RIVAL TO TUXEDO.
New Workers. Buy a Park Of 10000
Acres.

Wealthy New Workers. are preparing a
rival to Tuxedo Park. the home of wealth
and fashion. They have bought 10000
acres In Orange and Rockland counties,
covering parts of four townships. On the
tract which is eleven miles long and about
three miles wide. there are several lakes,
including at least two which are several
miles in extent. The estate touches
Greenwood lake in New Jersey. It is about
forty miles from the city, to which 1t Is
readily accessible, and lies in the heart
of the Ramapo mountains.
On the tract there is located one of tho
Oldest iron mines in the country-Sterling
mine, which gives it its name. In the fur
mace near by was forged the great chain
that was stretched across the Hudson
river in 177S to impede the progress of
the British fleet upstream.
To celebrate that historical event the

CAUSES A GREAT STIR
PROPOSED To- BAR AMERICAN
ROWING CLUBS FROM HENLEY.

HENLEY. Eng. June 25.-The residents
Of this riverside town. who reap a rich har-
vest yearly from the regatta, are anathe-
matizing Coach Fletcher Of Oxford today.
They realize that their pockets will be
touched II his proposal to exclude members
Of American boat clubs from future re-
gattas Is adopted. and they do not like the
prospect. Among the rank and file OF the
rowing men opinions vary, and there are
indications that considerable opposition will
develop against Mr.. Fletcher's sweeping
resolution. He contends that 1t will be the
fault of the American National Association
Of Amateur Oarsmen II Americans are pre-
vented from rowing at Henley.
They have not done their duty" said
man coming here to compete has to sign
declaration that he is an amateur accord
Ing to the laws of the Amateur Rowing As
ISOLATION OF England The Vespers did
more than was required. They swore in
amdavits before a notary public that they
were amateurs under our definition
They were supported by the president
of the American National Association Of
Amateur Oarsmen, and yet we learn after
ward that the affidavits were false and
that the American association had not
taken proper care to learn the facts be-
fore 1t Endorsed the entry. Under the cir
cumstances I say that the American Row
ing Association has not done its duty and
that we ought not to accept American en-
tries until the American association puts
its house in order and a new association
is formed on proper lines. That will take
about two years."
Sir John Edwards-Moss. a high Oxford
Elton authority on rowing, is, not specially
hostile to American entries, but he con-
siders that Henley is not the proper course
for international racing, because under GER
tain conditions Of wind a second-rate crew
might win through having sheltered po-
s!t!on.
Joseph Wright, stroke of the Argonaut
canadian crew, denounced the proposal
as being an insult to American rowing
clubs. He said:
If the resolution is carried it VIII create
q lot of bad feeling 1t is manifestly un-
fair to cast a slur on the amateurism OF
over forty big rowing clubs, because Of
one or two black sheep. Amateur row.
ing is the purest of sports In America and
Canada"
