violently the arm was broken. AS she
collapsed in faint one of her legs

Sisters Get Nothing.

Some astonishment was expressed
when it was learned that Mr. Morgan
bequeathed nothing to his sisters. That
feature is explained in article 36 of the
will, as follows:
ut is not from any lack of affection
or regard for them that this will con-
tains no provision for my sisters-Sa-
rah Spencer Morgan, Mary Lyman
Burns and Juliet Pierpont Morgan-but
only because the property which they
! already have makes the same seem un-
| necessary"
To every member of the Corsair club,
composed of persons who had been en-
tertained aboard Mr.. Morgan's yacht,
the COrsair, a piece of silver valued at
$1,000 is bequeathed.
! 1t Is provided in the will that the
pieces of silver shall be selected for
that particular purpose by the trustees.
When Mr.. Morgan was on the wit
ness stand in Washington in the "mon-
ey trust" investigation he made sew
eral assertions rejecting his implicit
confidence in the integrity Of his bust
ness associates. This feeling is reiter-
ated in section of the will In which
he directs his executors to accept with
out hesitation any statements concern
ing his interests that may be made by
his surviving partners.
| Provisions for servants or caretakers
employed at Mr.. Morgan's properties
abroad are thus set forth In article %
of the will:
81 give and bequeath the following
annuities in recognition of faithful
service:

housekeeper at Princes Gate, London,

ing regularly to any person or persons for
! their aid or support"
1t had been predicted the public
charitable bequestS would be small,
and the prediction proves true. Mr..
Morgan merely requested that his son
| continue-to quote one instance, which
is typical-"so long as in his judgment
| the same shall be necessary for its
support, the same assistance which I
have been In the habit of giving dur
ing my lifetime to the Society of the
Lying In Hospital of the City of New
York"
The annual gift to which Mr.. Nor
gan referred is known to have been
100000.
Mr.. Morgan's widow already is en-
titled to the income from a trust fund
created by Mr.. Morgan's father, Ju-
MUS Spencer Morgan, in 1867, and the
will provides that she receive for life
the income of an annuity trust fund,
so that her total annuity shall be
100000.
This provision is in addition to a
81 100000 fund.- the income Of which
she will enjoy during her lifetime and
the principal of which she may dispose
of as she sees fit by will.
Thought of Public.
The specific language of the will re-
garding the disposition Of the great art
collection is as follows:
article 81 have been greatly in
terested for many years in gathering
my collections Of paintings, miniatures,
porcelains and other works of art, and
it has been my desire and intention to
make some suitable disposition of
them or Of such portions of them as
might determine which would render
them permanently available for the in
struction and pleasure of the Ameri-
can people. Lack of the necessary
time to devote to it has as yet pre-
vented my carrying this purpose into
effect
"Unless l shall accomplish it or
make some disposition Of these collec-
tions in my lifetime they will pass to
my son, John Pierpont Morgan, Jr.,
or to his son, Junius Spencer Morgan,
Jr., under the foregoing clauses Of
this will whereby 1 dispose of my re-
siduary estate
SHOULD either my said son or my
said grandson thus succeed to the own
ership of these collections 1 hope he
will be able in such manner as he shall
think best to make a permanent dispo-
sition or from time to time permanent
dispositions of them or Of such portions
of them as he may determine, which
will be a substantial carrying out of
the intentions which have thus cher
ished. 1t would be agreeable to me to
have the Morgan memorial which
forms a portion Of the property of the
Wadsworth athenaeum at Hartford,
Conn, utilized to effectuate a part of
this purpose.
81 do not, however, by the expression
of these wishes intend to impose upon
my said son or my said grandson any
duty or obligation, legal or. moral, nor
to qualify In any manner or in any de-
gree his absolute and unqualified own
ership of said collections should they
pass to him under this will"

COMPANY F WON
 GAME EASILY

Company F wiped the floor with Seward last evening. They beat them by IA to 8 or something like that when it should have been 115 to nothing. There were boys on the Seward team who will be fine players. They have all the qualities to make rsttIing good men but how 10 it they waited for a league game to learn the most sle. msntary rulss.
 Steddsrd pitched well for Nome and will be big help. The fort tried there three pitchers, MeMenieIs, Bush and another who IasteG short. Had it been possible for a pitcher to win the game stoddard would have perhaps turned the track.
 To follow the game by innings one would have to tell of so many errors and muffs that it would be unwise. In the first jump off Rennie got a score because Trsmereau let Inc ball through a hole in his fingers and stoddard let home McCarren because he threw to second when he might as we'll have thrown to Peluk creek. Psrrstti and home in the firfist innings and Parsons made the first Of several swell catches that made him look like one of the best mon in the field.
 At the end of the second innings the score was 4 to i. In the second half of the third Lewis ran around to second without touching first but the umpire never saw and Faxon tried the same stunt again on third.
The Nome daily nugget., 1913-06-05

Faxon will be a rattIing good man when he learns the game. Osgood and Broste got home that time and both played pretty we'll. Rsnnie got Perretti would if he got time. Roberts scored in the fifth and Trsmereau
 missed again. The only thing that saved Trsm from being sent out on ths first boat was catching a little when about 50 scores were in sight. He eeersd we'll later. in the sixth Parsons caught a seorehina | Ter that gave the quistus to klimbls. Per ,stti got home again but craedocf alter good batting was nippsd trying to do too much. Rsnnis and another got home in the seventh and Stoddard got a hard deal for time. Powell, Dill and Rose scored pretty well in the second half. Beck for the fort was the only one to score in the eighth. Nothing happened in the ninth worth speaking about. Meredith and Bur Icy umpired. Beck and Osgood were catchers. osterman's boys will play the other city team next Sunday and a great fiah+ is sure.
 Mort Powell hurt his leg during the game and Hagen took his place. After a game or two the Ssward boys will be fine. They have some good tim Der. Anyhow each of the games ought to have a thousand spectators
