QUARTER OF BILLION DOLLARS
FOR COMMON GOOD.
viii Donate Much to charity-Educa-
ton Will Also BE Aided in a Man.
ner to Astonish World-Vast Sum
to New York-PersonaI Friend of
Family Is Quoted.

The New York Herald says that ac-
cording to a member of John D. Rookie
Teller Jr.'s Bible class, and who is also
a personal friend Of John D. Rockefel-
Ter and in a position to know of his
affairs, the latter proposes soon to
make princely gift to New York city
1t will amount to at least $50 100000
1t will be partly charitable and partly
educational.
"This man also said that when Mr.
Rockefeller was comforting with his
son at Lakewood, N. j., a fortnight
ago, the meeting was not for the pur-
pose of discussing any immediate gift,
but was on the subject of Mr.. Rookie
feller's will, which document the oil
king was then completing with the aid
Of his son and his lawyers. 1t was
said that this document will astonish
the world when it is made public. 1t
will, it is declared, give no less than
$3.50, 100000 for charitable and educa-
tional purposes and it will be so be-
slowed that the benefit therefrOm will
almost be perpetual.
"The manner in which these be-
quests 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. He thinks the
churches are growing steadily strong
or and that 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 furtherance Of
this 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 object will help to make
better citizens and better Christians.
LAS to the charitable requests, it
was said some time ago that Mr..
Rockefeller had in mind building
model tenements for the poor such as
have been erected in some European
cities.
"In his will, the informant states,
Mr.. Rockefeller has provided these
things: Requests for religious pur-
poses, though not of large sums, lib
eral requests for education, and what.
are described as princely requests for
charitable purposes. 1t is said that
there is scarcely a man, woman or
child that will not benefit in some way
by these prospective donations"

Wheeling, w. Va, March 18.-Eight
teen persons are known to have lost
their lives because of an early morn
ing fire at the Warwick Pottery com.
pany's plant.
Because of water surrounding the
burned district it was impossible
the fire apparatus to reach the scene,
The firemen pressed into service all
the boats that could be secured and
carried lines of hose to the burning
buildings. By this means they fought
the fire and assisted in rescuing many
persons. The crew of a boat moored
across the river manned a yawl and
rescued about 100 persons.
The men were offered all kinds Of
rewards and big sums of money for
the work they had done, but they re
fused to accept a cent. Most of the
imperiled persons were Syrians, and
at times when the big yawl was filled
to overlooking it was with difficulty
that the rivermen prevented the fran
tic foreigners from upsetting the
craft. Had the drowned persons re-
manned in their houses none of them
would have met death. The buildings
occupied by the victims were not
touched by the flames, but the explo-
sion that started the fire terrorized
the people.
The majority of the persons living
i'll the district are Syrians, and after
the fire they refused to return to their
homes. They are being taken care of
in the city hall and county building
