She" also owned three unencumbered lots in Rockland county, New York. Her will directed that after certain bequests, the residue of the estate should go to the college, of which she was a graduate.

Relatives fought the will, which read "Women's Medical College of Pennsyl-vania' instead of "Woman's." The Vice Chancellor held, however, that there was no doubt of the woman's intention, there being no "Women's' 'college, while she was a graduate of the "Woman's" college.

"In entrusting the command of Shamrock IV in the races for America's cup to an amateur yatchi-man, W.

P. Burton, I am aware I am doing something unrecedented," said Sir Thomas Lipton today, "but I believe the results will fully justify the wisdom of my choice." Continuing, he said: "I regard Burton fully the equal of any professional skipper in this country, the proof of which he repeatedly has given while sailing against them in various yachts he has owned, notably with the lO-Tmetre Octavia in 1911, when he finished the season at the top of the class. "Of course, Burton will have the benefit of a professional skipper throughout the races two if he wants them and Nicholson, the Shamrock's designer; who is in the front rank of amateur yachtsmen, will also sail on the challenger. Nicholson shares my high opinion of Burton. "So far as the races are concerned," Sir Thomas said in conclusion, "1 shall rimply foot the bills and let Burton do the rest." Real Politeness The German has not only been taught the outer courtesies, but he has been born with a kindness of heart and instinctive consideration for others which make his formalities of real value.

The man who appears to have a fund of "small change and valuless attentions is the same man who will go miles out of his way to do you a favor tomorrow." Only a few weeks ago I was traveling in the same train with a young lieutenant, whose smooth ad graceful manners had more than once aroused suspicion in my English, soul. He was got up in his newest and finest uniform; he had on spotless white kid. gloves, an eyeglass thrust in his eye; he looked, in fact, the veriest da.n-dy, who wrouJd not soil himself to save a life. The train was very full, and presently an old peasant fellow came in with his basket of vegetables, and looked about helplessly, treading: on everybody's toes in the meantime. I looked on my military neighbor and waited for the storm.

Ihe dandy arose, saJutea gravely, ot-fered the weary old peasant his seat, and went and stood outside.

Loosening Qlass Stoppers You have probably Been people try all sorts of tricks to get the glass stopper out of a bottle.

Sometimes they will try to pry it loose with a shoe horn or a pair of scissors, or they will hit it against the edge of the mantelpiece, and in many cases will crack the bottle before they can loosen tko stopper. The thing that makes the stopper stick is that the neck of the bottle is too tight, and if a bottle filled with anything warm has a cold stopper put in it there is sure to be trouble getting that stopper out again. The way to get the stopper out is to make the neck of the bottle larger and the smallest fraction of an inch will do. so small that no human eye could see it. Glass responds verv quickly under the action of heat or cold, which is whv a sudden change of temperature will track a "lass dish po easily.

But if you want to make the neck of a bottle expand just enoutrh to loosen a stopper moderate heat quickly applied is the tiling. The trick is to heat the neck and work the stopper loose before the heat reaches the stopper and swells that up, too. Some persons use a match, druggists use an alcohol flame, but the safest thing is a rag wruDg out of warm water and wrapped around the neck of the bottle New ork Sun.

LOCKJAW IS FATAL TO ELEVEN-YEAR-OLD BOY Wallace Smith Dies in Cooper Hospital After Hard Struggle Against Disease Death came to 11-year-old Walace Smith, of 2031 Arlington street, at the Cooper Hospital, Camden, early yesterday morning.

The boy had been dying from an attack of tetanus since Friday afternoon and no hope had been held out for him. The end came during the early hours of the morning, while his sorrowing parents were at his bedside. Every effort was made to save the boy's life from the time he was admitted to the institution on Thursday morning. For a time 2000 units of anti-tetanic serum were used and this treatment was apparently effective, as it had been in many others cases treated at the hospital, but the disease's inroads were too much for the attendants and they gave up the fight. This fatal malady in the case of young Smith developed from a comparatively slight laceration received on his arm during a fall in which the bone had been broken.

The boy's facial muscles were already stiffened when he was taken to the hospital by his mother. PUBLIC PARK COMMISSION IS NAMED BY FIELDER Special to The Inquirer. TRENTON, N.

Crowding into New York by special trains from Paterson, X. thousands of silk mill strikers assembled in Union Square today for a monster meeting of protest, heard stirring speeches by their leaders and attended the production of the "Pageant of the Paterson Strike" in Madison Square Garden tonight.

There were about 400 women and girls on board the train.

All the women and girls wore red roses or a piece of red ribbon while the men exhibited I. XV. W.

It was the "Brownies" or "Little People" who made his unconscious brain the vehicle for their He tells the story of how he came "to write "Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde." "I had long been trying to write a story on this subject, to find a body, a vehicle for that strong sense of man's double being which must at times come in and overwhelm the mind of every thinking creature. For two days I went about racking my brains for a plot of any sort; and on the second night I dreamed the scene at the window and a scent, afterward split in two, in which Hyde, pursued for some crime, took the powder and underwent the change in the presence of his pursuers.

All the rest was made awake and consciously, although I think I can trace in it much of the manner of my Brownies." London Chronicle. Artificial Nests for Bass The government fisheries bureau has discovered that black bass culture is greatly aided by artificial construction of nests. The male small mouthed bass builds his nest by sweeping the stones of a lake bottom bare of sand in a three foot circle. Using his nose and tail alternately, he makes a saucer shaped nest ready for the eggs of his mate. But he.

will readily use a nest that is prepared for him, and so the men of the fisheries are expediting his home building. For the large mouthed bass nests are made of moss embedded in concrete, as this species prefers a fibrous bed for its eggs. Ponds with basins six feet deep in the centre, with shallower water elsewhere, are so prepared. Wild fish caught by hook are put in to mate here, to the great increase of reproduction. Proper assortment of the fish and the pre vention of crowding accomplish excellent results Youth Companion.

Special to The Inquirer. ATLANTIC CITY, N. June 7 Judge Clarence Cole, of the County Court, today dealt a telling blow to legalized vice this morning, when three ab leged proprietors of disorderly houses were brought before him on the charge of selling liquor without a license. He issued warning that such an offense hereafter would be considered a high misdemeanor and dealt with accordingly. It is said to have been the annual custom to bring the proprietors of the houses in the Tenderloin district before the Recorder once a year and fin'e them each $200, which was considered as a "fee" for the right to sell liquor.

This is taken to mean that the Tenderloin district will hereafter be dry and as the sale of liquors is one of the chief sources of revenue there it is expected that the places will close. It is known that Judge Cole will refuse to indorse the bonds which all license-seekers must file with him as a guaranty of good faith. Train Kills Seven-Year-Old Boy Special to The Inquirer.

MMORALVTY CHARGED TO COUNTY OFFICIALS Grand Jury of Greene County Demands Resignation of Three Commissioners Special to The Inquirer.

WASHINGTON, June 7 The most terrific arraignment of county officials or other public officers in the history of Western Pennsylvania is contained in a report made this afternoon by the grand jury, which for two weeks has been conducting an investigation into the charges that the Greene County Courthouse had been turned into a veritable house of ill had been the scene of debauchery and drunken revels, and that public officials were the persons concerned. The report urges the immediate resignation of County Commissioners T. J. Ross, Lisbon Scott and Jesse McNeely, Clerk to the Commissioners Charles Huffman and Courthouse Janitor George White. It recommends that if the three County Commissioners do not resign within thirty days criminal proceedings will be instituted against them.

No recommendation is made as to Solicitor Charles H. King or Night Patrolman C. E. Gladden, of Waynesburg, but these two men are mentioned as having been present at the orgies. The basis for the investigation centred around reports of certain occurrences in the Courthouse on the night of February 25 last.
