Frederick T. Gates.

Rev. Frederick T. Gates, who is
business manager in charge OF the
behests of John D. Rockefeller in the
cause of charity and philanthropy,
was born in Broome County, New
York. July ,, 1853. He was gradu-
ated from the University of Roches-
term 1877 and from the Rochester
Theological Seminary three years la
ter. After his ordination to the Bap-

to become corresponding secretary of
lie American Baptist Educational So
ciety. In 1890 Nj. Gates solicited
the financial aid of Mr.. Rockefeller
in behalf of the University of Chica-
go, which at that time was a Bap-
fist educational institution. Mr.
Rockefeller gave millions to the uni

benevolence and decide which were
worthy. Since that time Mr.. Gates

Credit Professor Dyer.

University week has come and
gone. The report of the committee
says that it is a little more than ev-
en- in it's finances so that the week
was a financial as we'll as an educa-
tional success. The credit for this
fact belongs to one man in particu-
lar-Professor Dyer.
Professor Dyer was not chairman
of the committee which was given
charge of University week and only
assumed charge after the regular
chairman had been called out of town
and was unable to serve. The help
he received was centered largely in
a few individuals and he was forced
to depend mainly on his own efforts.
He even went so far as to give his
vacation time to the work of the
week.
Professor Dyer deserves a lot OF
credit. He worked hard and faith
fully with no hope of personal re-
ward or financial gain when the out
look was dark, he never lost faith.
Without his efforts, the Commercial
club might have been forced to dip
into it's treasury to pay the Univer-
sity. The week was excellent educa-
tionally; that it broke even financial
ly gives an increased satisfaction.

WHEN SURFACE SINKS
 TRACKS SPREAD APART

The street railway has encountered curious and embarrassing problem at Slag Dump hill The bed of the road at that point has been gradually sinking for a year or more, and during the night of Tuesday the earth apparently dropped several inches as early yesterday morning the tracks Of the line at that point were spread and sunk to such an extent that street car traffic was stopped.
 The company has had a force of men at work here strengthening sinks in the rails but up to yesterday morning the line was still passable at that point. A temporary arrange ment allowed the passage of cars in Jess than an hour after the sinking of the track had been discovered, but it will necessitate the expenditure of a great deal of work and money to permanently fix up the line at this point. The unstable road bed at this point cost the company more than $500, during the past year. The track bed h2s sunk eighteen inches in the last year.
