BARNEY'S FINAL TESTAMENT
Banker Recovered Consciousness
After Shootlnsr Himself and
Dictated a Will.
NEW YORK, Nov. 16. Mortally wounded
by his own hand, Charles Tracy Barney
summoned his family and lawyers to his
bedside, and after calmly reviewing his
business and private affairs and giving
minute expression of his wishes in certain
matters, dictated. and signed a will In which
his wife was made the principal beneficiary.
Tliis matter disposed of, he submitted with
resignation to the operation through which
his physicians had hoped to save his life.
A half hour after the lawyers withdrew,
the former head of the Knickerbocker
Trust company was dead.
This became known today through a
statement by Albert 8. Mllbank of the
law firm of Matson & Nichols. Mr. Barney's
personal attorneys. Attorney Mllbank
stated that after Barney shot himself and
was found senseless on his bed he was
restored to consciousness. This was about
11:30 In the morning. He remained con
scious until 1:30 p. m., when an anesthetic
was administered, and the physicians
probed unsuccessfully for the bullet, which
had entered the left abdominal cavity and
lodged under the shoulder.
In yesterday's will the banker directed
that his estate sliould be Incorporated and
administered by a board of trustees chosen
from his former associates in the director
ate of the now suspended Knfckerbocker
Trust company. Barney directed that his
wife should be the chief beneficiary after
his debts were paid. The estate is probably
worth about $2,500,000. The only reservation
made was In the matter of his life In
surance, which amounts to $185,000. These
policies are Incontestable and are to be
paid to the widow.
William A. Tucker of Boston, one of the
directors of the Knickerbocker, who is also
a member of the1 examining committee of
the board, said:
"I am confident of the ability of the com
pany not only to resume business and pay
depositors In full, but to keep the stock
Intact and also a considerable part of the
$6,(00.000 surplus."
RABBI C0HN TALKS OF THE JEW
Asks Neither Pity Nor Pntronaare, bnt
Simple Justice as a
Man.
"Emerson says to be great Is to be mis
understood, and If the reverse Is true the
Jew would surely be great, for he is most
thoroughly misunderstood," said Rabbi
Cohn at Temple Israel Friday night. In
speaking on the theme "Why am I a Jew?"
"The Jew does not ask for pity or ratron
are only JusMce. The Jew Is neither an sel
nor devil; he Is a man and wants to be so
regsrded. Why were not the Jewish people
all destroyed when the nation was de
stroyed with the fall of Jerusalem? Be
cause there are Jews In every land.
"The 'Wandering, Jew' Is not explained
by the testament In the command gener
ally ascribed as the reason. Tarry tl ou
until 1 come.' It Is a diabolical Invention
of the medieval 'ages. The legend has done
great harm, as many take It literally and
think a Jew Is kept on earth to be kicked
from pillar to post.
"The Jew rather believes he Is on this
earth to bless. The reason given for the
existence of the Jew Is 'Be thou a bless
ing.' With the temple fallen and the people
scattered, thst Is their command.
"We are Jews, first, becsuse we were
born such; but-that Is one of the least rea
sons. We are Jews by belief and convic
tion, by confession of a certa'n religious
faith. Just as others sre Christians. Mo
hammedans, etc. Judahlsm has no fixed
creed nor doxma. It nevertheless is the
bePi-f in one God eternal, creator and ruler
of the universe, and a bel'ef in righteous
ness. This is what is called ethical mono
the'st. "The Jew Is not a product of yesterday.
He has been contemporary of all the great
monarchs of the world. The Jew will never
change his rellg'on; here and there one or
two may, but the Jew as a Jew, never.
"To those who wish to spend their seal
for the betterment of their fellowrren, let
me tell thfm they waste their time when
they talk of converting the Jew. for they
can never do It. Christianity Is a product
of Judahlsm. Paul was the real founder
of orthodox Christianity."

The Woeful Reflection of a Withered
Dyspeptic.
No substitute for good nature has yet
been found. Smiles take root In ths
stomach. Without good digestion I there
never can be very much sunshine, for the
very simple reason that the storaaoh and
the brain are twins, and what affects one
Invariably affects the other. The adage
that the best road to a person's heart Is
via the stomach still holds good.
Gorged grub and pappy pie always breed
gloom and restless nights.
They also breed dyspepsia, quick dys
pepsia. uud dyspepsia shows Itself In a
IS THIS YOU?
variety of was belching, burning sensa
tion, an empty, feeling tn tha stomach,
bloating after eating, brash, aversion to
food, fermentation or downright Indiges
tion. .
There are few diseases which create such
misery long drawn out misery as dys
pepsia. It pursues you before meals, after
meals snd between mesls; you take It to
bed with you; it Is with you at ths theater
and at your dekk.
What Is the only way to get rid of Itt
You don't have to stop eating; you don't
have to diet. Just take something that
wilt do the work of the stomach aad let
the stomach take a rest.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the most
wonderful little tablets on earth for this

pepsia Tablets equals 1 good,, strong stom
ach for 1 time for 1 good, hearty meal.
One Ingredient of Stuart s Dyspepsia lab
lets will dlgekt perfectly $,000 grains of
food In Just ths same way that a strong,

other stomach troubles.
