THIS SCHOOL IS UNIQUE.
Endowment of $4,000, 900 Preparatory
Institution for LoOmises Only.

Hartford Conn.,, Oct. IA pre-
paratory school with an endowment of
$2,000,000, making it probably the
wealthiest in the United States, is to
be founded at Windsor, Conn, with
money left by five members of a single
family, Colonel John Mason Loomis of
Chicago, James c. LOOMS of Bridge
port, Conn.,, Hezekiah and Osbert
Loomis of New York, and Mrs. Abbie
Hayden of Windsor.
The school will be unique among
American educational institutions in
that every one of its scholars must be
a descendant of Joseph and Mary
LOOMS, who came to America in 1898.
A study of the family tree shows that
more than a hundred thousand per-
sons in the United States are so eligi-
BILE.
The death of the widow of Colonel
John Mason Loomis in Chicago last
week releases certain investments in
Chicago real estate, which are to be
used for starting the school.
The Loomis ancestral home at Wind
sor is to be the site for the buildings of
the institute.

FIGHTING BOB IN N. Y.
Thinks There Will Be Clash Between
Japan and United States.

New York, Oct. 11.-That a clash of
some kind between Japan and the
United States is inevitable is the opin-
ion of Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans
in an interview given out by the old
fighter from his New York hotel. He
is visiting New York for the first time
since his recovery from the illness
which compelled him to stand on
crutches at Carnegie Hall, a year ago,
while delivering a lecture.
''I think we must have friction with
the Japanese sooner or later" said the
admiral, but it will be over the ques-
ton of dollars and cents, in other
words, about the trade of the Pacific
The population that borders upon the
Pacific is greater than that living upon
any other body of water. The trade of
the Pacific win be the great trade of
the future. The Japanese will undoubt-
eddy be ambitious to control it,
I'VE have no merchant marine now,
but one of these days the American
people are not going to be satisfied
with this state of things. Then if any
country does not agree to a peaceable
division of trade. there will be trouble
But the sooner we put a fleet on the
Pacific and keep it there, the better It
will be for US, for sooner or later fric-
ton is bound to come"
