MAY GO TO CHARITY.
saae's Widow Likely to Spend Millions
for Auntanity

saae's Widow Likely to Spend Millions
for Humanity.
New York, July '2S.-Mrs. Russell
Sage. in her seventy-seventh year.
faces the most stupendous task ever
allotted to woman OF her age the
distribution of nearly $70,000,000.
BY his will Russell Sage left practl-
cally all the money his life had been
consecrated to amassing to his widow,
ito have and to hold, absolutely and
forever" BY doing so he left it to
charity, for the remaining years OF
Mrs. Sage's life will be devoted to the
realization Of charitable dreams which
long have occupied her thoughts.
Mrs. Sage would not make any state
ment herself yesterday as to what
would be done with this immense for
tune she has to handle, but DR.. j. Carl
Schmuck, who has been her physician
and close friend for eighteen years,
made the statement 1t would be dis
tributed by Mrs. Sage among various
charities. DR.. Schmuck was at the
Sage residence at Lawrence last night.
I'm leaving his fortune to Mrs.
Sage" DR.. Schmuck said, "Mr. Sage
has left it to charity. She will distrib-
ute it. What could she do but give 1T
awayo How could a woman of her
advanced years spend a thousandth
part of it herself?"
"Mr Sage knew his wife had made
study of philanthropy and that she
knew much more than he did about it.
He knew in leaving it to her she would
take advantage of this study and dis
tribute his fortune wisely. Despite the
impression the will may have given the
fortune has been left to charity. I DO
not know Mrs. Sage's exact plans, but
that she certainly has some plans l do
know.
Her gifts will be along broad lines,
as he is deeply interested in educa
tional work, in various forms of char
liable enterprises, in soldiers and sail
ors, in Young Mems Christian associa-
tons, and in hospitals. That is all 1
can say to indicate what will become
of the fortune
DR.. Schmuck said Mrs. Sage was not

health. She realizes she has not many

Modest Claims Often Carry the Most
Conviction.

When Maxim, the famous gun inven-
tor placed his gun before committee
of Judges. he stated it's carrying power
to be much below what he felt sure the
gun would accomplish. The result Of
the trial was therefore a great surprise,
instead of disappointment. 1t is the
same with the manufacturers Of Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy. They do not publicly boast
of all this remedy will accomplish, but
prefer to let the users make the state
ments. What they do claim, is that it
will positively cure diarrhoea, dysen-
terry, pains in the stomach and bowels
and has never been known to fail. For
sale by all druggists.

Kansas City Journal 0Rep)
 Many persons are puzzled to know why President Roosevelt is so bent on forcing Arizona and New Mexico into so extraordinary--in fact, unprecedent- ed-that it would seem that it could be Justified only by an extraordinary emergency In the life of the nation. or territory has ever been forced into Statehood against it's will, and there are many reasons, stronger than rrece- dent why two territories should not be forced into joint Statehood against their will. The constitution of the United States prohibits Congress from making one State out of two, or parts of two, without the consent of the people of both States. expressed by their respec- tive Legislatures. This prohibition is based primarily upon the great rrinoi- pie laid down in the Declara tion of In- dependence,. that "all Governments de- of the governed" In equity and good morals this principle should apply to the people of the territories as well as to those of the States--they are all American citizens
 President Roosevelt has not given any reason publicly for his extraordinary course, but he is credited with saying privately that this Statehood question
 is always bobbing up in Congress to the hindrancc and delay of more important matters, and 1t must be gotten out of the way. 1t is also stated that the railway and mining lobby are using money to prevent the passage of the omnibus Statehood bill, and, therefore, 1t must be passed.
 Neither of these reasons. assuming them to be true, is sufficient to justify bill which violates fundamental principle of the Government and dis
 poses of the people of these territories
 as though they were cattle. True

A FOOL CLUB.


 The Columbus Enquirer-Sun brings to our notice the formation of bach elor's club in Nesquehoning, Carbon County Pennsylvania. Nesquehoning, be it understood, is an Algonquin In- dian word, meaning black lick" re- ferring to a deer-lick where the water is of a blackish color. We don't know what is the matter with the celibates of the town, unless 1t be that the name of the place has made them nutty. Be that as it may. they have formed a club and among other evidences of weak mindedness they adopted these resolutions:
 That we thoroughly discountenance all efforts on the part of the opposite sex to ensnare us into any of their all turing entanglements; and. be 1t also
 Resolved, That we are capable of talk ing care of ourselves, without any fem mine assistance in any shape, manner or form.
 Now, we do not know anything about the female Mosques. but if they don't make it interesting for that congrega- tion of porcupines we know little of the sex. The old party who dehed the lightning didn't show half as much idiocy as do these citizens of the town with the unpronounceable name when they thus defy the women. All that will be necessary is for the feminines to ignore the members of. this club on all occasions: to leave them absolutely alone, and not notice them when they meet. If that doesn't soon bring the bumptuous bachelors to their senses there's no hope for them. As a mat ter of fact we expect soon to hear that the Nesquehoning Bachelors Club has | gone out of business

SLUGGISH DEPRESSION. Proper Food Removes It.


 Before using Postum Food Coffee my wife and were prejudiced against it." writes an Iowa man." but now we would not be induced to give. it up.
 My wife was suffering from various nervous ailments and was especially afflicted with black spots before the eyes. with an accompanying feeling of faintness. These spells grew in fre- uuency and at last we came to suspect that possibly coffee was the cause of them.
 we therefore determined to give up the old coffee and use Postum for awhile, to see if 1t would help her. The result was more than satisfactory. In very short time only long enough to get the coffee out of her system, and give the Postum a chance to build up to improve rapidly. Several weeks have elapsed since she had an attack of blind spells or faintness, and her other nervous troubles have disappear ed.
 'I had been greatly troubled from a sluggish feeling of depression that made me very miserable, and when I saw how Postum had helped the wife, determined to see what it would do for me. So quit the old kind of cof- fee and began the use of Postum, and from that day to this have been en- tirely free from the old depression, sluggishness and despondency. Our little Syear-old daughter had i grown quite cross and peevish, and we put her, also. on the Postum diet. It has made such a change in her that the teacher of the school which she at tends remarked upon 1t without know ing the cause till we told her. We have all been made brighter and -N- H .sf.. n life seems actually more worth living, since we quit coffee and began to drink | Postum Food Coffee,' Name given by | Postum Co, Battle Creek. Mich.

WHEN THE KIDNEYS

The Urgent Need of Prompt Restora- tive Measures is Something
 That Every One Should Understand.

Slight disorders in the kidneys or uri nary organs are more serious than most people think. The first warning symp- toms should receive prompt medical treatment to ward of Bright's Disease or some other dangerous mafady. When the kidneys are ailing and the symptoms become sufficiently pronounced to be noticeable the condition calls at once for prompt measures to stay the progress of the disease. Prickiy Ash Bitters is the remedy needed. Taken on the ap- pearance of the first symptoms, such as pain in the back, puffiness under the eyes, irregularities inthe urine, digestive disorders, it will save the victim incal- cu1able misery and suffering, mental torture and expense. Used at the begin- ming of the trouble 1t cures quickly. Used in the more advanced stages it viii win back health and strength as rapidly as circumstances will possibly permit.

ABOUT WATER RATES

The New Bedford Standard, arguing In favor of water meters in cities, says:
 Opinions of those most conversant with the subject steadily grows in fla vor of motoring water supplies. This conclusion is forced by contemplation of the immense quantities of water that are wasted, and the certainty in many cases that if the wastage goes on and increases as 1t has, existing sources of supply and machinery for supplying it must soon prove made auate and must be extended at large expense. A metered supply forces the consumer into considering his own re- sponsibility. and so checks waste. Wa ter is not allowed to run for hours to no purpose, and fixtures are not allow cd lo get out of order. When the wa ter-taker knows that his payments are regulated by the amount of water he uses, he takes steps to bring the con sumption inside of reasonable limits. Prudent householders everywhere fa- vor the meter system, and they will eventually force its adoption by every body.
 That is all well enough if the meter registers the exact quantity of water used, and the consumer is only forced to pay for the quantity he actually uses, for 1t is the only fair and just way of selling. water, as all must ad- init if they look at it rightly. It is different when the citizen is allowed so much water each quarter, and must pay for that much, even if he uses but the half or the fourth of it, or even less. In this city the householder, where meters are used, pays for SO,OOO gallons of water a year, and If he only finds it necessary or desirable to use 10000 gallons he gets no rebate. but must pay for the whole amount.
 Will it be contended that this is an equitable arrangement? It is not done in any other business. The citizen is not expected to pay his grocer or his butcher a stated amount of money each year, or each quarter. whether he re- ceives the goods or not, and no man would submit to such an arrangement And we are persuaded that if people were required to pay for just the water they use there would be less water wasted than Is done under the present practice. A man should pay for what he gets and for nothing more.

Imnrnrinr 1Slnter Prennure.

Montgomery is going to have the finest water pressure for fire pur- poses of any city in the South" said a well informed citizen yesterday. when the reservoir now building is com rick Street is ready to be tanked up to the brim with water.
 situated where it is on one of the highest elevations in the city, 1t will augment greatly the water power we now have. The new eight million gal- lon pump which is being installed at the water works pumping station will be in service in short while and the firemen will never want foriwater when they get to a fire. We all know that the firemen get to blaze In a hurry, and If they have the water as soon as they want it after reaching the place to use it, then we won't have any se- rious fires in Montgomery
