TO GIVE AWAY S1O,OOO,OOO.
Mrs. Sage Incorporates the Sage Foun-
 dation" at Albany.

Albany, N l., March 13.-Through her counsel, Henry w. Deforest, Mrs. Russell Sage gave out in this city a statement relative to the Sage founda- tion, which it is her purpose to endow with $10,000,000. MT. Deforest came here with the bill incorporating the Sage foundation, and 1t was introduc. ed by Assemblyman Prentice of New York. Senator Agnew will introduce a similar bill in the senate. In the state ment issued through her counsel Mrs. Sage explains the purposes and scope oI the endowed philanthropy. She says:
 'I have set aside $10,000000 for the endowment of this foundation. It's ob- ject is the improvement of social and living conditions in the United States.
 ."The means to that end will include research, publication, education, the establishment and maintenance of char itable and beneficial activities, agen- cies and institutions and the aid of any such activities, agents and institutions already established It will be within the scope of such a foundation to in- vestigate and study the causes of ad- verse social conditions, including ig- norance, poverty and vice; to suggest how those conditions can be remedied or ameliorated and to put in operation any appropriate means to that end.
 Tt will also be within the scope of such foundation to establish any new agency necessary to carry out any of it's conclusions and equally to contrib
 
 agencies which are doing efficient and satisfactory work, just as the present general education fund, organized to promote higher education, is aiding ex. isting colleges and universities"

fict cleared away Mir Delmas had won his point as to the law, while Mr Jerome in the very argument itself had got before the jury a perfect knowledge as to what his witnesses would have testified to had they been permitted. The district attorney called ten witnesses, but aside from drawing from the states eyewitnesses to the tragedy the opinion that Thaw seemed rational the night he shot and killed Stanford White little headway was made.
 Lining up all his forces in rebuttal, MT. Jerome decided to open his fight upon the defense by attacking the story told the jury by Evelyn Nesbit Thaw. He called to the stand Freder- ick w Longfellow, formerly an attor- ney for Thaw, and asked him first con- corning the case in which Ethel Thom- as is alleged to have sued Thaw for damages because of cruel treatment. MT. Delmas objected to questions along this line under the professional privl- lege of lawyer and client. but before Justice Fitzgerald sustained the objec- ton and ruled out the evidence MT. Je- rome declared: ''The story of the girl tied to the bedpost and whipped by Thaw is the story of Ethel Thomas. This poor girl Is now dead"
 Never Saw HummeI Affidavit.
 He showed Mir Longfellow the photo graphic copy of the affidavit Evelyn Nesbit is said to have signed in the office of Abraham Hummcl. alleging that Thaw treated her cruelly while abroad in 1903 because she would not tell lies against Stanford White." Mir. Iongfellow then turned his entire eX- animation to naught by declaring that Mrs. Thaw had never shown him pa per similar to the Hummel affidavit in any way. He thereupon was excused without cross examination.
 Police officers who saw Thaw the night of the tragedy declared he acted rationally
 Mr. Jerome sprung something of a sensation by calling to the stand pr. Rudolph Witthaus, chemist and eX- pert on poisons. The district attorney framed hypothetical question cover ing Evelyn Nesbit's description of her night with Stanford White in the studio house and asked if there was any known poison which would cause in- sensibility in two minutes and premit of the quick recovery testified to by Thaw's wife.
 Wants Expert Opinion on Drugs.
 My question indicates the answer l expect to get to this question:" said Mr. Jerome, "and if I can show there is no such poison in the world; if can show, in short, that there was no such occurrence in the Twenty-fourth street house as testified to, then it is for the jury to infer whether or not Evelyn Nesbit told her story to Thaw in Paris in 1903."
 Justice Fitzgerald here sustained the objection interposed by the defense.

Five Heroes.

The maritime prefect has drawn at tention to an act of conspicuous hero ism performed by five sailors of vari- ous ships who responded to his call for volunteers to open the sluices of the dry dock. These men continued their vain efforts undeterred by the death of their leader, Midshipman Rousse, who was decapitated, amid a shower of projectiles from the exploding twelTe inch shells until orders were finally given to the .battleship Patrio moored opposite the dry dock, to fire shell into the gate. This was done, and the water rushed in just in time to prevent the flames reaching the central and forward magazines of the Jena. In these magazines were stored the great CT portion of the melenite torpedoes. the explosion of which would have had terrible consequences in the arsenal and town.
 After the shell from the Patrio had burst the gate it ricochetted, went through the arsenal wall and buried itself into a talus' of the Notifications, just missing a sentry.
 The Jena will be a complete loss. Her entire after section has been dam aged beyond repair.
 The Jena was turret ship of Ii, ,S61 tons displacement and 16,500 horse power. She was completed in 1901. The vessel mounted four 12-inch guns, eight 6.4-inch guns, eight 39-inch, six teen 1S-inch and about twenty smaller rapid fire guns. Her speed was esti- mated at over IS knots
 The disaster is the eighth to occur in the French navy since the beg inning of | the current year.

PLANT 10 RE BUILT AT VIII. ss
TON AT ONCE. u

Mr. s. ]. Bradley, Of the National
Fuel Briquetting Cos was at the ". %.
1Washburn mine near w ilton Thursday
and selected assite for the new Ignite
briauetting factory that is to be
established at that point. Mr. Bradley
went east Thursday night to- arrange
some details with Gen. Washburn and
will return to begin active operations
in about three weeks. The first unit
of two machines will have a capacity
Of $50 tons day andsit is expected
that the plant will be in perfect work
ing order by August 18th. The binder
used will be pitch, chemically treated
so as to eliminate all smoke from the
briquettes when burning. The briquet-
ties will be egg shape and be made in
two sizes. Mr.. Bradley makes, the ex-
travagant claim that In heating eff
cheney one ton Of the briquettes made
under their process will more than
equal that Of one ton Of hard coal.
The briquettes are impervious to
moisture and can be handled AMI
stored the same as anthracite and
bituminous Goals and can be used on
railway locomotives.
The briquetting Of Ignite coal has
been in the experimental stage for a
long time and it is hoped Mr. Bradley's
company have solved the problem as
it means a great deal to this region
and to the state. There is now ship.

know If the new law will prevent

goods seized are contraband. All
present the railways have lien On

FLAX. SEED
PROF. BoLLEY SHOWS NEED OF
USING CARE IN SELECTION
mi or SEED.

Prof. H. Z. Bolley:: On account Of
my corresponds nce regarding diseases
of / fax, U receive d great many re-
quests from farmers all over the state
asking where they can buy good, clean
fax seed. ss s..5
AS our work demonstrates that
homegrown faxseed is preferable to
that grown at a distance from the
region in which 1t is to be raised. II Is
wise for farmers to buy the seed Of
their neighbors, provided they can get
good. yellow. plump, common Russian
seed flax. and seed which is free from
weed seed. This also saves the buyer
from shipping grain long distances.
If farmers who have fiaxseed for
sale will send me sample OF the see !.
and inform me as to the number OF
bushels that they can dispose Of this
spring, It may be possible for me to
aid many farmers in their particular
region to procure good seed. ;s$
. It is Of the greatest Importance to
this state that only plump, yellow seed
should be sowed upon the new lands:
Every farmer in the fax growing dis.
tricts Of this state should, for his own.
good, undertake to educate the new
corners with regard to the dangers Of
injuring not only their own lands but.
the lands of the entire state in SOW
ing inferior, scaly, black aaxseed. The
flax seed should be55as plump and vel.
low as possible to get, free from chaff
and straw, and then should be treated
by the formaldehyde method, as rec
ommended in our circulars.

that Horace N. Marvin, Jr., had been
found in the woods near the home Of
his father at kits Hammock, upon In
vestigation,. by detectives was found to
be Incorrect. Late tonight word was
received here saying that the boy had
been found. When detectives arrived
at the Marvin home they found the
rumor was baseless. The report prob,
ably gained circulation from the fact
that the Logan school hoHse, near the
Marvin home was broken into last
night and practically torn inside out
by some unknown persons. This i'd
