Miami University to Get

OXFORD. o., June 2S.-The com

Cincinnati, assures Miami University
of $345, 200. OF which amount $4,000
is to be expended in the erection 'oi

the George c. Ogden Hall, in memory
OF Mrs. Whaling's brother, graduate
Of Miami. class Of 1863. The remain
ing $4,000 will go to an endowmer,
fund. and will be deposited to the
credit Of the university with the treas
urer of the state, to become part OF
the irreducible fund. and to pay The
university per cent per year.
Mrs. Whaling. whose estate was val
ued at $650,000, died three years ago
and distant relatives have since kept
her requests tied up in the courts
Before her death she visited Oxford
and selected the spot upon which her
brothers memorial is to be erected
also she had plans and specifications
for the building prepared. On account
of the high cost Of building materials
at the present time, it is not likely
that Ogden hall will be erected at
once.
