BIS FOUR CHILDREN HIS GUESTS Fulfills Promise to Distribute Wealth Amorg Youngsters “In Time To Do Them Some Good.” Pittsburg, Pa., Sept. 17.—At the gulden wedding supper recently given by him and his wife, W. H. Singer, one of the Pittsburg steel magnates, distributed $ 1 «>.<*011.000 among his four children, each child getting $1,1)00,000. Through the filing of certain papers in the Allegheny county courthouse yesterday this fact came out. and was later admitted by the Singer family, which is one of the best and oldest in Pittsburg. The millionaire invited his children to assist in celebrating his golden wedding anniversary on May 27. The children were the only guests, and each found by his or her plate a small "dinner favor,” consist ing of checks, bonds and deeds amounting to $4.000,0.10. The Singer children who received $4000,000 each are: William Henry Singer, Jr., land scape painter, now in Norway. George Singer, iron manufacturer. Pittsburg, now in the White moun- tains on his vacation. Mrs. William Ross Proctor, wife of a Philadelphia architect. Marguerite Singer, youngest datigli- ter, now living with her parents. Mr. Singer made his fortune in iron as a member of the famous iron firm of Singer, Nimick & Co. He also is connected with many banking insti tutions in Pittsburg, and is considered one of the very rich men of the coun try, his remaining fortune, after giv ing his children their share, being probably $15,000,000. Mrs. Singer, who has a fortune of her own, made through investments by her husband, received several pieces of valuable real estate as her golden wedding present. A peculiar feature of the case was made known late yesterday. William Henry Singer, the son, who chose an artistic career rather than the iron business as his life's work, will scarce ly be able to enjoy his millions in America, owing to the great fear his wife bears for the “Black Hand.” She received a threatening letter at her home in Sewickley, and it frightened her into hysterics. Her husband was finally compelled to take her abroad. It is said they will remain permanent ly in Norway, as Mr. Singer expects, in spite of his wealth, to spend all his time in painting. Mr. Singer is following the policy laid down by his life-long friend. Charles Lockhart, of the Standard Oil company, who some years before his death, invited all his children to a dinner party, at which, under each plate, was found $1,006,000. Lock hart and Singer many years ago prom ised each other that they would be gin to distribute their wealth among their children “in time to do the GETS ANOTHER ROAD. Union Pacific Secures Control of Chi cago & Northwestern. Chicago, Sept. 16.—A report from Wall street of a traffic agreement be tween the Union Pacific and the Chi cago & Northwestern, amounting to complete control of the latter road by the former, gained strength yes terday in financial circles on the re fusai of Marvin Hughitt, president of the Northwestern, to discuss state ments made in the Wall Street Sum ntary under the head of "Harriman Properties.” The report is that the Harriman in terests have absorbed the Chicago & Northwestern by the simple device of a guarantee on the stocks of the latter company. It is pointed out in the article, which appears to be inspired, that the strategetic position of the Chicago & Northwestern is such that it will not come within the meaning yf the law that prohibits merging or single control of parallel competing railways. Lightning Slays Birds. San Francisco. Sept. 17.—The Pa cific Mail liner City of Para, which arrived yesterday from Panama and way ports two days ahead of time, was struck by lightning during a heavy electrical storm encountered August 30, when steaming from Aca jutla to San Jose de Guatemala. The vessel was struck several times. The only damage sustained by the liner was the loss of the foretopmast, which was shattered into splinters In the morning after the storm had passed, thousands of dead birds were gathered up on the bridge, awnings and deck^ Ar¿t ofOUDrSiMlirnCXH fìcvpfaa Seed“ Ax.Ser.na + JMeUeSdts* Ause Seed ♦ I I Wrw Seed“ Aperfect Remedy for Cnrtsflpa tion.

University of Idaho Agri '.cultural Experiment Station, M obcow . On account of the numerous in quiries coming into our station, we find it necessary to issue this press bulletin concerning the so-called "Alaska” wheat. Ibis wheat, when given ample field space or conditions favorable to the individual plant, has a branching head borne on a rather tough straw at a height of between four and five feet, The mesh bears two and three ker- nels. When grown under close field cond’tions the head tends to be much smaller, branches less, and the mesh bears from one to two kernels, very seldom three. If heads grown under these conditions alone were examined the impression would be obtained that this wheat never bears blit two ker nels to the mesh, a mistake which some writers appear to have made. The beards, while not numerous, are dark in color and considerably stronger than we find on our common wheats, but not so long or stiff as those found on the durutns or maca roni wheats. The normal kernel i? light in color, short and plump, with an unusually open groove, which al lows the kernel to be easily broken in threshing A cross-section shows the interior to be white and powdery, with comparatively little horny starch The shrunken kernels naturally are harder. Taking everything into considera tion, 1 am led to conclude that this is the Egyptian or Miracle wheat, a Poulard, and that it belongs to that variety of the Egyptian known a- Eldorado, which is very closely re lated to the seven-headed variety. The Poulards are peculiarly adapted to dry regions, but never have been grown to any extent in America Their yields have never proved to be of such a nature as to warrant their extensive growth, even for stock food And the inferiority of the flour pro duced from them has prevented their use to any extent for the production of bread. The high yields claimed for the wheat in this section of the country, in some cases 277 bushels per acre, are fabulous One of the promoters states that from one head of the wheat he obtained seven pounds; from these seven pounds he produced 1545 pounds, or a yield in round num bers of 220 fold It is from these figures that the yields noted in the various papers, and in the circular of the Adams-Hobe Seed Grain com pany, of Juliaetta, Idaho, are com puted To show the ridiculousness of computing yields in this way. we de termined in a couple of cases, the number of grains produced from one seed of Little Club grown under fa- vorable conditions in our breeding plat. One plant produced 1176; the other 1800 kernels. Now, reasoning as this seed company has done, if we should plant one bushel of this Little Club to the acre, we would obtain 1176 or 1800 bushels. This would be a rather high yield, even for Idaho. This year the company had 700 acres in the wheat grown on different farms in this locality, A thirty-acre tract near Moscow, which was threshed in the middle of August, went about thirty-two bushels per acre. Mr. Adams stated at that time that his best yields had been thirty five bushels. He supplemented this remark, however, with the statement that his stands were poor in every case. But considering the large acre age, the fact that several different farmers grew the crop, and the effect of a close stand, noted above, we must take this as an indication, at least, of the yielding power of the wheat. This, however, would not be considered an extra large yield for this country The analy sis of the wheat upon which the company appears to base its hopes amounts to practically noth ing in determining the bread-making quality of the flour It is true, that bluestem wheat, which analyzes higher in protein than Little Club, makes a better quality of flour, but it is also true that macaroni wheat, which an alyzes higher in protein than Blue stem, makes a lower class of flour, and consequently is discriminated against by the miller. The low-grade flours turned out from our mills usu ally show a higher protein content than the patent Corn has consider able protein, but the chemist seems unable to find any gluten (that all cs sential part of a good flour) liven if the chemist had found a high gluten content in "Alaska” wheat, we wou'd still not be justified in concluding that the wheat would make a good quality of flour The proof of the wheat is in the bread it will make promised to have a milling te«t made Upon our request the company hat ■ oon. Until this test is made, how ever, we must assume that the wheat will make no better flour under the name of “Alaska" than it <1 <1 when known as “Wheat of Miracle." In spite of all the beautiful stories which have been written concerning the origin of this wheat, regardless of the many wonderful things which have been imagined about its quality. ■ nd taking into consideration the ini pression as to yield, which has so skillfully been thrown broadcast throughout the American continent by this seed company, who advertise their wheat for sale at #20 per bushel, we have yet to find any point of merit in it which would warrant the public paying m >re for "Ala ka” wheat than the prevailing market price of our common varieties. There are certain mineral medicines which will remove the external symptoms of Contagious Blood Poison, and shut the disease up in the system for awhile, but when the treatment is left of! the disease will surely return. Then the loathsome symptoms ti u’.ceta'.ed mouth and throat, copper-colored spots, falling hair, sores and ulcers, etc., are usually worse because the disease has made rapid progress on the internal members, and weakened tb.e constitution and general health of the sufferer. S. S. S. is the only renu '.y that can 1.- u ■ ' w : h p feet safety in the treatment of Contagious Blood Poison, and v ■ will result. This medicine, made entirely of roots and herbs of recognized curative and tonic value, antidotes and destroys the powerful virus of the disease, and by purifying the blood of every particle of the poison and enriching and stren tlienin/ the circulation, removes every sypmptom of the trouble. S. S. S. does not hide or cover up the disease- in any way, but drives it entirely out from the blood, leaving not the slightest trace for future outbreaks.
