The New Webster Dictionary Is
for School. Home and
Office.
HAS ENDORSEMENT OF
EMINENT SCHOLARS.

Stamped with the emphatic and
authoritative approval of the leading
scholars of the present day in America,
the Webster New Standard Diction-
ary which the PILOT is placing with
in the reach of it's readers is admitted
to those who have seen it a marvel of
completeness and unequaled in its
comprehensiveness. In addition to
the usual mission of a dictionary--to
furnish the spelling, pronunciation
and meaning of words-the Webster
New Standard does many other
| things.
1t teaches you the authorizations of
parts of speech, tells of the origin,
composition and derivation of the
English language itself and includes
the principlesNof grammar. Without
taking either side of the controversy
it shows what the simplitied spoilers
would like to accomplish and how
they would like to simplify. The key
to pronunciation of all authorized
words of the Anglo-Saxon tongue and
IL 900 synonyms with the complete
dictionary of the languages, take up
a good portion of the book. But that's
not all.
REMARKABLE CONTENTS.
Many fsreign words, phrases, prov
lerbs, quotations. ETC., such as would
prove of material benefit to the I'M
sophisticated traveller or to the per-
son who is just beginning to learn a
foreign language; facts about the
earth and the solar system, the
Christian names of men and women,
the value of foreign coins as compared
with our money, the names of the
famous in history, fiction and poetry,
dictionary of commercial and legal
terms, list of familiar illusions of
various kinds and chronological list
of the great battles waged on the
! globe since the dawn of history, will
be found in the one volume. But
wait. That's not all, either.
The Constitution of the United
States and the Declaration of indie
pendence, printed in their full detail,
the Presidents of the United States
pictured and named in their proper
order, the metric system of weights
and measures, the time difference

As haS been customary with these
concerns for great many years, the
Underwood Veneer Co. of this city,
and the Brooks & Ross Lumber Co. of
Schotield, gave each employe a turkey
or goose for Thanksgiving, which was
fully appreciated by the men and
boys-also their families. The price
of over hundred birds means quite
an item of expense to each concern.

TWO MAY DIE FROM FALLS
One Woman Deliberately Jumps
from Window to Street.
WAS FOUND IN A HALLWAY
Another Plunges to Sidewalk in
Sleep-Child Playing on Roof
Goes Over Ledge.

Serious injury resulting from fails OF
leaps from windows were unusually hu-
merous yesterday. one woman who fell
screaming to the sidewalk had jumped
from a window Intentionally, while an
other was seeking sleep near an open
window when she plunged TO the street
child who was playing on the roof or
his home toppled over the ledge and land
ed In the yard
Mrs. Jennie Maraveo, Of No. 1918 Third
avenue, The Bronx, was found moaning ana
unconscious In the hallway at her home
early Yesterday morning by Patrolmah
Dooley. Of the Morrsania station. The
ambulance surgeon who was called from
the Lebanon Hospital found that the
woman was so seriously injured that she
would probably die.
An investigation by the police disclosed
the fact that Mrs. Maraveo had probably
leaped Intentionally from her bedroom win
dow. on the fourth floor. She had then
managed 10 crawl into the hallway. Her
husband said his wife had been i'll for sew
eral months. and had only recently been
discharged from Bellevue Hospital, where
she was sent for observation.
Trying to obtain a breath Of fresh Air
in the early hours Of Yesterday, Maggie
Callahan. of No. 2o5 West Goth street, drew
chair beside a window on the third moor
OF her home and went to sleep. About !
o clock in the morning other persons IN the
building were aroused by the sound of a
womsns shrek, and, looking out. saw the
/ Callahan woman plunging to the street.
Patrolman White. Of the West 6Sth street
station. ran up and lifted the woman from
the sidewalk She was unconscious and
had fracture of the skull and internal in
iuries
Or Schmah Of Flower Hospital, who
took the woman 10 that institution, said
that she had a small chance for her life.
The streets were so hot and crowded yes
terday afternoon that there was no place
where n very little boy could play. That
is The reason why Tony Gisdono, FIVE years
old scampered to the ton floor Of his home,
at No. 235 Elizabeth street, wrggled his
way up the ladder leading to the roof and
pranced about dellghtedly.
The breeze IN there above the streets was
cool and brisk, an Ideal day for flying the
kite which his father had made for him,
and soon Tony was running up and down
the roof trying 10 make the kite rise into
the air. Just when he thought the kite was
about To soar away in the air Tony missed
his footing and felt himself piunging head
downward 10 the yard. His small screams
We're mufled by the swiftness of his fall,
and his little body was pitched from one
clothesline to another as he dropped.
When Tony's father and mother ran to
the rear yard and picked their son mp the
little fellow was suffering, apparently. from
nothing more serious than fright DR.. Nc
Gowan. of St Nncent's Hospital. took the
boy away, saving that he might have q
fractured skull. This could be determined
only after a thorough examination, he de-

RUSSIAN POLICE REFORM
Men To Be Paid Salaries, Instead Of
Permitted to Collect Graft.

St Petersburg. July 20.-The Ministry Of
the Interior has completed a bill for the
reform of the Russian police. The bill
starts from the basis which must be taken
for all Russian reforms in any Of the pub
lie services. namely, the universally ac-
knowledged fact that all the public ser
vices are undergrad. The police officers can
not, and never attempt to. live on their
pay. Indeed. the cost OF uniform and
white gloves more than absorbs the annual
pay I'm all self-respecting towns. But i'm
memorial custom has sanctioned a system
of Illicit profits for the police. as for most
other categories of the Russian Public ser
vices.
II H. to remedy this state OF things
that the bill proposes TO raise the pay of
all ranks of the police ranging from a
minimum Of about s. 800 year, rising to
more than $3.50 for police masters" down
10 $500, rising to $50 year, for policemen.
This means an increased expenditure OF

capitals and many Of the larger towns are
