CURRENT EVENTS OF THE WEEK Doings of the World at Large Told in Brief. PATTON TO HELP MANKIND. "Spacial Servic*’’ to Be Wheat King's Guiding Star. Chicago "Special Service” is to be the guiding star of James a ratten in the distribution of his fortune for th*» benefit of humanity during his lifetime. Mr. Patten has declared that "a man should dispose of great wealth for the benefit of the community.” that “social service is the one groat thing in life," and so he has set alxiut the disbursement of his wealth and has given to the most appealing chari ties no less than $2,000,000 within the last six months. Half a million dollars was donattsl to the cause «»f medical research in the "white plague.” Another large con tribution was for the protection and education of that neglected class called by William L. Bodine “the children of the pathetic estate.” A public park has been provided for in Evanston; substantial aid has been extended to the Young Men's Chris tian association for enlargement of the scope of that institution in dealing with the young men of this ami suc ceeding generations; generous assist ance has been afford»*! to the cause of education in the Northwestern Uni versity an»! a large sum ¿iven to the Evanston hospital, besides the re- sponses to the almost innumerable ap- peals that have come to him from the widows, the orphans, the poor and the distressed. Mr. Patten's intense interest in the tuberculosis investigation dates from the death of his brother from that disease. INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT AND PROGRESS OF OUR HOME STATE WORK UN MAINE PROGRESSES.
