WILL ASTONISH
ALL THE WORLD
WILL OF JOHN -. ROCKEFELLER,
rs CONTEMPLATED.

The n. Y Herald says that accord
ing to members of John d. Rookie
Teller IRIS Bible class. and who is
also a personal friend of John d.
Rockefeller and i'm position TO know
OF his affairs. the latter proposes
soon to make princcly gift to New
York City. II will amount to at
least $5O.OOOOOO II will be part
ly charitable and partly educational.
The Herald will add
"This man said tNat when Mr..
Rockefeller was comforting with his
son at Lakewood y j.. fortnight
ago, the meeting was not for the pur-
pose of discussing any immediate
gift but was on the subject of Mr..
Rockcfener's will which document
the oil king was then completing
with the aid of his SON and his law
yers"
It was said that this document will
astonish the world when it is made
public 1t will, It is declared, do
nate no less than $25O.OOO.OOO for
charitable and educational purposes
and it will be so bestowed that the
benefit therofrom will almost be per
petual.
The manner in which these be
quests will be bestowed is said to be
mainy educational and charitable
While there are some contributions
for religious purposes it is stated
that Mr. Rockefeller does not think
it necessary to extend any great fl
nancial aid to churches TO his man
ner OF thinking. the churches are
growing stronger and stonger and
there is no danger that they will ever
need any great financial assistance
from any one man.
Mr. Rockefeller, however, is said
to be much I'm favor of the growth OF
education and to the furtherance of
this great end he has done much i'm
his will He believes that education
will make this country the greatest
in the world and that every cent con
tributed toward that object will help
to make better citizens and better
Christians
AS to the charitable Request, i;
was said some time ago that Mr.
Rockefeller had i'm mind building
model tenements for the poor, such
as have been erected i'm some Euro
poan cities.
In this viii the Herald's informant
states, Mr. Rockefeller has provided
these three things requests for
religious purposes, though not of
large sums, liberal requests for ed
ucation and what are described as
princely requests for charitable pur.
poses 1t is said there is scarcely a
man, woman or child that viii not
benefit in some way by these pros
pective donations.

Caught whiskers IN Safe.

IN locking his safe the other night
prior to his going home for supper
George Edgemont, paperhanger who
lives at Jefferson street and Hermit
age lane, Manayunk, shut the safe
door upon his flowing whiskers and
was held until released by his daugh-
ter, says the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Edgemont had been out collecting
bills during the day. Returning to his
Office he opened his safe and placed
the money in it. He then threw the
door shut, catching the end of his
beard IN the door. in the excitement
incident to his odd predicament he
forgot the combination and so could
not release himself. With his chin
resting on the safe he was discov-
cred about an hour after the accident
by his daughter, who came to find
what had delayed him. The safe was
broken open by a locksmith.

EQUAL TO THE OCCASION.
This Servant Girl Was Evidently q
Person of Resource.

As source of humor the Irish SER
want girl has long since fallen from
her high estate, result probably due
to the better class of young women
from the Emerald Isle who come here
annually to help confuse the eternal
servant girl question" But now and
again one OF the old, naively ignorant
sort turns UP In New York house
hold, as was demonstrated the other
day to caller at house on the West
Side.
The girl who responded to the bell
was asked If her mistress was at
home. To this inquiry she surprised
the caller by putting her arms behind
her back and replying in a rich
brogue, as she thrust her face toward
the caller: Put tn tickets in me

-Four men who at one time or an
other had enjoyed the hospitality of
one Canadian camp were talking
around an open fire in a club the
other night about the taciturnity of
the average Canadian guide The ex-
perience meeting had been opened by
one man who had been telling of two
days he spent with a native woodman
in pursuit OF q moose, and who in all
that time had only spoken once, and
then he dropped the undeniable fact
that their way through the forest was
a damned bad trail"

most part being Irish.
Was the speech to your liking.

audience.

averred Pat, in tone of such sincere
admiration that the politician felt
