B. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
A Great Calamity.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 The Patton chapel school and church building. one of the historic landmarks of Jefferson county, situated Il miles south of Birmingham, was destroyed by fire February 2i last, and with all school equipment. including nearly all the school books and leaving fifty or more children without church or school advantages.
 The desire IS to rebuild as soon as pos sible. and since the community is so sparsely settled 1t appeals to the gem erous public for aid. Any aid would be a godsend and a blessing to humanity.
 Any contribution for this cause may be left with The Age-Herald.
 This is a worthy cause and should ap- peal to the patriotic pride of lovers of Christianity and educational advance ment. GEORGE CANFIELD Teacher.

COAL LAND FRAUD
 CASES TAKEN UP

Cleveland O., March 9.-That culmi- nation with Guggenheim interests was considered by the 33 claimants to Alaska coal lands was admitted today before United States Commissioner William J. McGee by w H. Warner, one of the entrants.
 MT Warner declared that at meet ing of the claimants at Spokane in 1907, to which he sent proxy, there had been combination with the Guggenheims, but that he had understood that the matter was dropped.
 The evidence was given at the opening of an inquiry here Into the claim of four of the original thirty-three claimants to patents to Alaska lands
 Mr. Warner and Hugh B. Wick of Youngstown, another claimant, both testified that they had known personally most of the 33 who had filed claims and that it had been understood that they would operate on a friendly basis.
 The inquiry will be resumed tomorrow and probably concluded.
 The taking of the final dispositions in the cases was begun here late today by W. J. McGee of the United States land office before Notary C. w. Chestnut
 William z. Miller of Elyria, O., was the first witness.
 Miller's testimony was for the purpose of having his mother substituted as claimant for his father, who died last April.
 w. IT. Warner, a Cleveland coal dealer, was the next witness. He said he met in Seattle in 1903 and be- came interested in the Alaskan coal fields and bought a claim for about 5000.
 He said there was no agreement be- tween parties making entries.
 One of the exhibits offered in evidence by the government was an affidavit which had been prepared by L. R. Glavis while he was still agent for the land office and which was signed by the claimants This affidavit admitted that the claim ants were acquainted with each other but MT Warner asserted he had signed 1t in ignorance. believing it would not be used against him to invalidate his claim. He declared he had been led to the belief by MT. Glavis that the latter was acting in an entirely friendly man. ner and with desire to secure patents for himself and his associates

RUSSIAN WRITER
 IS ACQUITTED
Madame Breshkovskaya Given
 Sentence of Exile.
PLEASED AT VERDICT
Friends of the Two Russians Congrat- uIafe Them, for Exile in the Wom- ans Cnse Does Not Mean
 to Siberia.

St. Petersburg, March 9.-rhe trial of Nicholas Tschaikovsky and Madame Breshkovskaya, on the charge of revo- lutionary conspiracy, ended today with the acquittal of Tschaikovsky and the comparatively mild sentence of exile ifn- frcsed upon Madame Breshkovskaya. Tschaikovsky's counsel was so pessimis- tic with regard to the outcome that he spent the interval when the jurors re- tired in planning an appeal Madame Breshkovslxayas counsel lamented the fact that she lacked fouf years of the age exeinpting her from hard labor.
 The first gleam of hope, however came when the judges dropped the charge against the woman of preaching the as- sassination of the emperor, under which exile with hard labor was inevitable on conviction. The jurors deliberated for ten minutes. then the doors were opened and the verdict was rendered.
 A handful of friends surrounded the prisoners, shoN ering congratulations upon them and exchanging kisses in typical Russian fashion. The guards allowed the woman half an hour with her friends before taking her to the prison, where she will await deportation.
 The collapse of the prosecutions case was due to the utter discreditlng of Pat euk, who himself is serving a life term for murder and other crimes. and the failure of the crown to present other witnesses who could connect TschaikovslIy and Madame Breshkovskaya with revo- lutionary activity, as charged in the in dictment The woman, however, had rleaded guilty to being a social revo- lutionist The jurors found that the busl- ness records introduced amply accounted for Tschaikovsky's presence In Russia.
 Tschaikovsky will leave here in three weeks for Erglar d. Madame BreshkoV- skaya's exile, as shown by the expe- rience of others. will be reasonably com fcrtable, if money is forthcoming, rom either her or her friends.
 When the trial of Tschaikevsky and Madame Breshkovskaya was resumed to- day. the prson in turn addressed the court Tschaikoysky occupied all Of the morning with a recital in justification Of tEe part he had played In the affairs or his country, and of his career generally. He explained his motive in visiting the United States as a desire to collect funds to be nsed solely for the benefit of fam flies of exiles and striking working men.
 The court questioned him closely re- earding his visit to America ana brought out the admission that the moneys collected had been turned over to a committee of social revoiutlonlsss and that the prisoner had no contfoi over their distribution.
 Madame Breshkovskaya spoke brief ly, mainly in an effort to clear Tech eilxovsky. The latter was utterly ex- hausted by his examination and at it's conclusion fell asleep. Madame Bresh k ovskaya also showed evidence of fatigue.

Good New. to New Workers.

New York, March 9.-The many American friends of Tschnaikovsky ex- pressed today the greatest qualification over the acquittal of the Russian so- cialist, who, during his visits to this country, had become intimately ac- quainted with leading fnanciers and statesmen. The efforts of Tschaikov- sky's friends here to secure for him an open trial Is believed to have been not with out weight in bringing about an acauittal.
 Russian revolutionary circles on ths Eastside heralded with joy the verdict of the Russian court, but expressed the deepest concern for, the fate of Mad anne Breshk ovskaya.
 Robert Erskine Ely, an active lead CT of the civic forum, said:
 q am pleased beyond measure as all the friends of Tschaikovsky in this country must be. This is tribute to the publiicty which the aged prisoner S friends here have insisted upon. In the last two years we have spent a considerable fortune upon telegrams to St. Petersburg alone.
 T fully expectd Tschaikovsky would be sent to Siberia. No plans have been made for the future of Tschaikovsky but he probably will be brought to this country and taken care of for life"
