New York March 18-The Herald
will tomorrow say that according TO
member Of John D. Rockefeller Jr's.,
Bible class and who is also a personal
friend of John D. Rockefeller and in
position to know of his affairs, the
latter proposes soon to make a prince
ly gift to the city of New York. It
will be partly charitable and partly
educational
The Herald will add:
This man informed a Herald re-
porter that when Mr.. Rockefeller was
comforting with his son at Lakewood
N j., fortnight ago, the meeting was
not for the purpose Of discussing any
immediate gift, but was on the subject
Of Mr. Rockfeller's will, which doc
ument the oil king was then cOmplet-
ing with the aid of his son and his
lawyers It was said that this dOcu-
ment will aStOnish the world when it
is made public. It will, it is declared,
donate no less than $250000,O00 for
charitable and educational purposes,
and it will be SO bestowed that the
benefit therefrOm will almost be per-
petual The manner in which these
beQuests will be bestowed is said to
be mainly educational and charitable.
While there are some contributions
for religious purposes, it is stated that
Mr. Rockefeller does not think it nee
eSSary to extend any great financial
aid to churches. To this manner Of
thinking the churches are growing
stronger and stronger and there is no
danger that they will ever need any
great financial assistance from one
man.
''Mr Rockefeller, however, is said
to be much in favor of the growth of
education and to the futherance of
this end he has done much in his will.
He believes that education will make
this country the greatest in the world
and that every cent contributed to-
ward that objest will help to make
DoLleI ClLlZeHS anu UtLCeE GuISl1duo.
LAS to the charitable beQuests it was
said some time ago that Mr.. Rookie
feller had in mind building model
tenements for the poor, such as have
been erected in some European cities.
I'm his will, The Herald's inform
ant states, Mr.. Rockefeller has provid-
ed these three things-bequests for re-
hgious purposes, though not Of large
sums; liberal bequeSts for education;
and what are described as princely
bequests for charitable purposes. 1t
is said that there is scarcely a man
woman or child that will not be
