MILLIONS FOR EDUCATION
John D. Rockefeller Gives $10,000,000 for
Higher Institution of Learning.
INCOME ONLY IS TO BE DISTRIBUTED

Instruction of Any
. Kind.
NEW YORK, June 30. Ten million dollars
as an endowment for higher education In
the United States has been given the Gen
eral Education Board by John D. Rocke
feller. The announcement was made by
rr. Wallace Buttrtck of the board at a
meeting today. The following; letter to the
secretaries and executive officers of the
board from F. T. Gates, Mr. Rockefeller's
representative, was given out:
Twenty-six Broadway, New York. June
80, 1W6. To Messrs. Wallace Buttrtck and
Starr J. Murphy. Secretaries and Executive
Officers, General Education Board, New
York: Dear Sirs I am authorlxed by Mr.
John D. Rockefeller to say that he will
contribute to the General Education Board
the sum of ten million dollars ($10,000,0u0),
to be paid October 1 next. In cash, or, at
Ills option, In Income producing securities,
at their market value, the principal to be
held In perpetuity aa a - foundation for
education, the Income, above expenses and
administration, to be distributed to or iha4
for the benellt of such Institutions of
learning, ai sucn limes, in such amounts,
for such purposes and under such cnnrli.
tlons, or employed in such other ways as
the board may deem best adaDted to tiro.
mote a comprehensive system of higher
education In the United States. Yours
ery truly, F. T. GATES.
Statement of Board.
With the letter the following statement
,,waa given out:
John D. Rockefeller, Jr., with other gen
tlemen of this city, was Instrumental in
forming the general education board in
February, 1902. A very board and admir
able charter was secured from congress and
signed by President Roosevelt on January
2. 1903
A gift of $1,000,000 from Mr. John D.
Rockefeller was immediately passed over
to the board, especially designated for
educational work in the south. Other funds
have ben added by other philanthropists
since that time and the board has confined
its work hitherto mainly to educational
work In the southern states. The present
gift differs from Mr. Rockefeller s first
gift to the board 1n the following partlcu-
Ia"h'e principal sum of the gift of 11,000.000
made on the organization of the board
could be distributed. The present gift of
110,000,000 Is held as endowment, the Income
onlv being available for distribution.
The first gift was designed to be used ex
clusively In the southern states. The pres
ent gift is for use not only for southern
states but throughout the United States,
without distinction of section.
The first gift could be used for common
schools and secondary education. The sec
ond clfe is confined to higher education
and Is designed specially for colleges as
distinguished from the ret universities,
althougth there Is no prohibition in the
letter of gift against making contributions
to universities, for both gifts are alike
available for denominational schools as
well as for those which are nonsectarlan.
Not for Theological Institutions.
While the funds may be employed for de
nominational schools, they will be em
ployed without sectarian distinctions. No
special denomination will be particularly
favored, but the funds will be open to ap-
f roved schools of all denominations, al
hough they cannot be employed for giving
specifically the theological Instruction.
In distributing tho funds the board will
aim especially to favor those institutions
which are welt located and which have a
local constituency sufficiently strong and
able to Insure permanence and power. No
attempt will be mado to rescuslcate mori
bund schools or to assist institutions whlcii
are so located that they cannot promise to
be permanently useful.
Within these limits there are no re
strictions as to the use of the Income. It
may be used for endowment, for buildings,
for current expenses, for debts, for appa
ratus, for any other purpose which may
bo found most serviceable.
It Is known that Mr. Rockefeller has had
this gift in contemplation for a long time,
and Mr. Gates hns been studying the sub
ject in his behalf for many months. If the
fund proves to be as useful as is now an
ticipated Mr. Rockefeller will undoubtedly
make large additions to it in future years.

American Militia Visits King- Edward
on Ills Birthday and Re
ceive Welcome.
LONDON, June 30. The trooping of the
colors, the main feature of King Edward's
birthday celebration, had to be postponed
today owing to Inclement weather. The
representatives of the Seventh regiment of
the New York National Guards, however,
proceeded to Buckingham palace, where
they were received by the king.
Fourteen members of the regiment
marched through the Mall to the palace,
assembled In the ambassador's room and
thence were ushered into the throne room,
where the king welcomed the Americans.
Among the others present were Ambas
sador Reld and Major J. II. Beacom, the
American military attache. The Americans
wore their side arms.
The king expressed his pleasure at seeing
the Americans and congratulated them on
their appearance. He said he was glad to
hear they had found the British regiments
hospitable, as he knew the Americans to
be In the case of a visit from British
marksmen. The king - shook hands with
each of the visitors on their departure.
Most of the reviews, naval and military,
in honor of the king's birthday had to be
postponed on account of rain. The usual
salutes were fired at the garrison towns
and at the ports. The warships were
dressed.

FATHER IS DENIED CHILDREN
Omaha Indian, Divorced from Wife,
Seeks in Vain to Get
Offspring;.
The application for a writ of habeas cor
pus that ho might be restored the custody
of his children was refused Louie Dick, an
Omaha Indian, by Judge Munger Friday
morning. '
The two children were attending the In
dian school at Genoa and the father wanted
them home for tho vacation, he alleged. In
his application for the writ Louie Dick says
he is an Omaha Indian and was married
to Lizzie White In 1891, his bride alBO being
a member of the Omaha tribe. The couple
was divorced in January, 1903, and Louto
was given the custody of their minor chil
dren, Lucy, aged 14, and Emory, aged 11
years. He held further that the two chil
dren are unlawfully restrained of their
liberty, and the petitioner of their cus
tody and control, by one W. H. Winslow,
superintendent of the Indian school at
Genoa, where the children were attending
school.
This school Is under ths control and di
rection of the Interior department and the
father says Winslow refuses to restore the
children to the petitioner because they are
members of the Indian tribe and are to
remain In his custody and control until
they have fulfilled their full term of three
years nt that school. The children were
produced In court Friday morning, pur
suant to the application of Louie Dick.
In his answer Superintendent Winslow
says that on September 1, 1903, Lucy Dick,
one of the children, was placed in the
Genoa school by her father for a term of
three years, and was consequently received
there for that term and ' under the rules
of the Interior department she would have
to ,remaln there for the full term. He
la of the opinion that for the Interest of
all concerned that they should remain there
for the full term as prescribed by the
rules and regulations of the Interior de
partment. Louie Dick, the plaintiff in the case, Is
one of the best known Indians of the
Omaha tribe and Is well known in Omaha,
having been frequently a witness before
the United States courts In the bootlegging
cases, as well aa a frequent Interpreter for
both the government and the Indians.

The Belle Fourche project Involves the
lands of Butte and Meade counties. South
Dakota, by the diversion of the waters of
the Belle Fourche and Redwater rivers
mto a large basin east of tlfe town of
Belle Fourche. The area of surface water
will be nearly 9,000 acres and will be sixty
feet deep In parts.
The bulletin says:
From the reservoir two distributing ca
nals will be needed, each about forty miles
long. The larger, known as the Northsldo
canal, will run from the reservoir In a
northerly and then easterly direction, irri
gating about 60,000 acres on the north side
of the river. The canal will have at its
head a bottom widh of twenty-six feet and
will carry seven feet of water. From this
canal water Is diverted-through seven large
laterals or Drancnes to lands distant from
the canal.
The Southslde canal will leave the reser
voir on the west side of Owl creek and will
Irrigate about 4,000 acres on lower Owl
creek.
About ISO.OOO acres of land He between the
distribution canals and the river, on both
sides railway crossing at Old Fort Custer.
There are probably 30,000 acres to be irri
gated by this canal, which would be ap
proximately forty-five miles long.

HOP GROWERS ARE TO COMBINE
Corporation Will Be Formed to
Handle Crop of Producers
of Oregon.
PORTLAND, Ore., June 30. A dispatch
to the Oregonlan from Eugene, Ore., says
that It has been decided at a meeting of
the hop growers to form a corporation to
handle the crop of the Pacific coast with
the purpose of controlling prices. It is the
Intention to hold a convention during July,
which will be attended by delegates from
the several hop districts in the state, for
the purpose of forming the corporation.
After the formation the crop of every
grower will be transferred to the corpora
tion, which will do the selling. One of the
largest hop raisers in Oregon states that
ho believes fully 90 per cent of the 1906
crop will be turned into the corporation.
After Oregon Is organized it is proposed
to extend the field of the corporation to
Washington and California and then to
New York, and thus place the control of
the entire output of the United States un
der one corporation.
FIFTY MACHINES ON A TOUR
Five Hundred Miles of Country Roads
Will Be Covered by Chl
cago Men.
CHICAGO, Juno 30. Arter weeks of
preparation the great Chlcago-St. Paul au
tomobile carnival tour Is now on. The cars
did not start on their long trip promptly at
the scheduled hour, but a few minutes
after 9 o'clock started down Michigan ave
nue for what promises to be the greatest
tour ever held In America. The proces
sion was an Imposing one. The fifty ma
chines which left the club house this
morning, decorated with pennants bearing
different mottoes, looked more like a parade
than the beginning of a grind of 500 miles
across country roads.
N. H. Van Slcklen preceded the regular
body of his tourists in the scout car, to
strew the roads with confetti, in order to
mark the route for the drivers, most of
whom have never been over the roads.
The first night's slop will bo at Rock
ford, 111., where the tourists will be guests
of the Rockford Automobile club. Tho
local automobllists will entertain the Chi
cago tourists and many of them will Join
the procession. Early tomorrow morning
the trip will be resumed and the second
day's stop will be made at Dubuque.
No effort will be made to hang up new
records for the trip and five days will be
taken for the BOO miles. The main body
of dust-begrlmmed autolsts is expected to
arrive in St. Paul Tuesday morning. "
