A REAL PHILANTHROPIST.
David j. Rankin, DR., Given Fortune
To Make Chances For Boys.


When the roll of the real philan-
thropists of this age Is called the
name OF David j. Rankin, Jr., of St.
Louis. will be found among the first.
Mr.. Rankin has given away his en-
tire fortune Of $3,0O0,0OO while he
lives, reserving to himself during the
remainder of his days only an income
of $4,000 year for his personal use.
Without any thought of self, anx-
ious only to do with his money that
which, in his opinion, will accomplish
the greatest good, and spurning the
luxuries that go to make up the life
of man of wealth, Mr.. Rankin with
one stroke of the pen has cast him.
self from the millionaire class into
the ranks of the comparatively poor.
II have given away my property
that the poor boy may have a chance
to become a useful citizen"
In this simple statement Mr.. Ran
kin sums up the motive which
prompted the generous inheritance to
| those youths who may attend the in
stitutions founded by him and there
earn the practical lessons which
their benefactor hopes may make
them useful citizens.
Mr.. Rankin is rs years old, a Pres
byterian and a Democrat He is un-
married and made his entire fortune
through real estate and stock trans
actions. He was pronounced recent
ly by a successful st. Louis business
man as "One of the most sagacious
men / ever knew. He always knows
| when to buy at bargain and when
to sell at profit"
However this may be, Mr.. Rankin
has gathered large fortune within
his hands and now he proposes to
dedicate that fortune to the best use.
He sees no better way in which to
make mis- money useful than to es-
tablish a large trade school where
the poor boys of st. Louis may be
put upon their feet and LAUGHED into
the world with the confidence that
comes with the mastery Of useful
crafts.
Although a firm believer in the ad-
vantages of a college education, the
philanthropist always has maintain
ed that the university should be made
more practical
There should be taught fewer the
ories In our universities and more
that is based upon hard, common
sense" Is the statement Mr.. Rankin
frequently has made. "The social and
economic conditions Of tais country
demand a broader education, on
practical lines, for those boys destin-
ed 70 become the very backbone of
our industrial welfare-the boys who
will toll with their hands"
Perhaps 1t was this determination
to as:ist in the education of these
youths in the establishment of a
school equipped for that purpose that
was responsible for Mr.. Rankin's
withdrawal from those social indul-
gences enjoyed by men of means.
His desire to save his money that 1t
might serve as means to better the
youth may explain why life in a
three-room fiat over a corner gro
cery was good enough for David Ran
kin, who has been a worker himself
and knows the needs of workers.

General Strike Takes Effect

Men Leave Employers.
TWO PERSONS ALREADY
FATALLY SHOT BY POLICE
Demonstration Planned for This
Afternoon in independence
Square, Which Is the Cause
of Much Apprehension
BLOODSHED NOW LIKELY

Philadelphia, March 4.-Encour-
aged by messages of sympathy and
offers of assistance from labor or
carnations from all parts of the
country, union workers of many
trades ceased work at midnight and
inaugurated what promises to be
one of the greatest sympathetic
strikes in the history of organized
labor.
The committee of ten says that at
least $4,000 organized workers, as
well as many unOrganized men, have
ceased work.
Promptly at midnight union or
chestras, playing In the leading no.
tells and cafes, picked up their in
struments and started for home.
Union cab drivers and chauffeurs
also abandoned their posts and the
hotel and railroad cab and automo-
bile service was badly crippled.
The drivers of both taxicab serv-
ices in the city are members of a
union and refused to take out their
machines after midnight.
The committee of ten remained in ses-
sion in its headquarters all night, receiv-
ing reports from the local unions. The
labor leaders refused to comment on the
report that the police would prevent the
demonstration planned for tomorrow af-
ternoon in Independence square.
Rioting Renewed.
Rioting. which began tonight In several
sections of the city and was particularly
severe in the northeastern district, is
thought to be a forerunner OF more seri-
Gus trouble tomorrow, when thousands of
idle men will throng the streets While
the labor leaders are receiving moral sup
port from their fellow workmen in all
parts OF the country, many associations
of employers have sent letters and tele-
grams to the officials OF the Philadelphia
Rapid Transit company and the city Of
1icials commencing their position and
urging them to stand firm in their deter
mination not to recognize the union.
All policemen, firemen and specials
who have been on duty since the strike
began, received orders tonight to remain
at their posts. The number of emer-
gency automobiles in the city hall court
yard was increased, and preparations
were made 10 SEND force or men TO any
section OF the city at a moments notice.
Many of these machines are driven by
their owners, wealthy men, who have
volunteered for police duty, and have been
sworn in by Director Clay.
Two Probable Fatalities.

fatally injured tonight by a policeman
who fired into a crowd that had con-

PaIIsade EnauIfed BIZ Hood.

Reno, New, March 4-Disaster has been
brought to a large part of the town Of
Paisade, New, from flood of water in
the Humboldt river which engulfed the
place and carried seven or eight build
ings down the stream to the Southern
Pacific steel bridge, where they were
quickly converted into kindling wood and
piled high in the air, thus damming the
swollen stream and backing the water
into the main portion of the town until
it threatened the Southern Pacific office
and freight sheds, as well as the gem
eral office of the Eureka & Palisade
Railroad company.
THE water began to rise Monday after
noon and covered the lower ground south
of the Southern Pacific track slowly, but
surely at the rate of foot an hour,
and it was several feet deep before the
people realized that it was going higher,
and in consequence of the delay num-
Der lost almost all their property. The
water is slowly receding.
