ANOTHER lilliStll FUND Widow of the iiuluntiiropist to Aid American Charities. - SHE MAY DONATE $1,800,000. Ex-llfinister Straus Vill Probably Be the , Almoner,’A1tlxough He Vi'ill Say Notl - ing About Its—The Baroness’ Generosity Commended. New York, March Elm—Mr. Oscar S. Straus, minister to Turkey during Mr. Cleveland’s first administration. has just returned from Europe, and coinci- dent with his arrival there comes the story that the Baroness de Hirsch is contemplating the donation of a large amount of money to the fund establish- ed by her late husband. Mr. Straus is one of the trustees of the fund in this country, and while abroad called upon the baroness in his fiduciary capacity and also as a friend. ‘ When Mr. Straus was asked today if it were true that the Baron de Hirsch fund is to be largely augmented, he re- plied that he was not in a position just yet to speak about the matter. “I do not know,” he went on, “how the report got out. I certainly have said nothing about it, and I am not prepared to either confirm or deny the report. Yes,I did see Baroness de Hirsch,whom I have known for a long time, and I am more than ever impressed with her splendid ability and her munificent charity. She is one of the grandest women that ever lived, and her capacity for work and grasp of large affairs and details are extraordinary.” “Is it true,” he was asked, “that the sum contemplated to be given to the De Hirsch fund in this country is $1,800,: 000?”. “It would possibly work harm to a great many deserving people if I were to speak about that matter. I deserve no credit whatever for what the baron- ess has done, and as this is not a per- sonal matter my lips must be sealed. Further Gifts Likely. “Oh, yes,” smilingly replied Mr. Straus to another question, “the re- port that she will give a large sum to the fund looks probable. Her splendid charities are the warrant for that, but in view of the condition of things at present, any discussion of her projects and plans by me would be inappropri- ate.” Mr. Straus’ manner and his answers to questions were amply indicative of the truth of the report. The sum of $1,— 800,000, which, it is said, will be added by the baroness to the large amount do- nated by the late Baron de Hirsch for the betterment of the condition of Jews in this country, is to be apportioned among three or more projects. One mil- lion dollars, the story goes, is to be de- voted ,to new projects of a charitable nature, which will be a radical depar- ture from the old channels of eleemosy— nary work. ' Then, it is said, that the Educational Alliance, in which the late baron was very much interested, will be benefited by $100,000. The distribution of the re- maining $700,000 will be on equally ef— fective lines, the precise nature of which is like the entire benevolent scheme, in a preliminary stage only. Baron de Hirsch died at Pressburg, Hungary, April 20, 1896, leaving about $130,000,000, which he had accumulated by railroad building on the continent of Europe and by marvelous business enterprise and acumen. He was an in- timate friend of the Prince of Wales, and, While unostentatious, was one of the most noted men in Europe. A Wonderful Philanthropist. His charity assumed the character of magnificence, and his work for the amelioration of the Russian, Austrian and other Jews will be a perpetual me— morial oflthe man. His widow was a worthy helpmeet to the great benefac- tor, and she continued the dispensa- tion of the immense wealth he accumu- lated in the same and similar direc- tions. laid' down ,by him. The couple were childless, but an adopted son, Ar- nold de Forest, who is reputed to be worth $15,000,000 in his own right, is now settled in New Orleans, becoming an American citizen to escape army service abroad. In 1892 Baron de Hirsch gave $2,500,- 000 for the benefit of Russian Jew im- migrants to the United States, to be used for “their assistance, education, Americanization and support after landing.” The principal settlement in this country established with this fund is at Woodbine, Cape May county, N. J., where 5,100 acres of land are now under cultivation by the grateful bene- ficiaries. Only last November these now contented people dedicated the handsome synagogue they built to the memory of the man who knocked the shackles of Russian oppression from their wrists and ankles and made them a free and prosperous colony.

Eastport, Me, March 2-l.—A success- ful X ray experiment has been per- formed on Mrs. George Fountain, who belongs in New Brunswick, but has lived here several months. She had been a sufferer from an internal dis- order which the local physicians could not diagnose. She was treated by them for various complaints, but to no avail, and her case had been practic- ally given up; when she determined to go to the Maine General hospital at Portland. Mrs. Fountain thought she had a cancer, and her friends little ex- pected her to return. _ . The hospital surgccns to whom she went decided to use the 3-: ray to locate the seat of trouble, and in this they were entirely successful. They found imbedded inone of the nerves leading to the heart a Small fishbone which had been swallowed a year ago, and upon removing this the patient’s pain ceas- ed, and she began to regain her health. Mrs. Fountain has come home, having been absent less than a week. She is seemingly entirely cured. BREDER IS DEPIANT. He Now Threatens to Involve Other Peo- ple In His Thefts. Bethlehem, Pa. March 24.-—Discov- eries just made. add $10000 to the em- , bezzlement of Cyrus E. Breder, the de-‘ faulting cashier of the First National bank of this 'city who disappeared a few weeks ago, leaving a shortage estimated at the time to amount to $13,000. He also stole $1,000 from a building asso- ciation. Breder’s bondsmen died, and his bond was not renewed, so the bank had to make good the shortage of $30,000. Bre— der is said to be in Denver, and it is likely that steps will be taken to have him brought here on charges of forgery. A sensation has been created here by the. receipt of a letter from .Breder in which he threatens to expose certain unnamed citizens of Bethlehem who as- sisted him in his peculations.

And Remarkable Proofs that the National Disease Long Considered lncurable,‘ Can be Cured and Has Been Cured Right Here in Norwalk. Mrs. William \V. Bloom. who lives at 7 Water street, l\‘or.va-k. says: “I have been troubled with catarrh in my head and throat for some time. My whole head was stuffed up; the passages of my head and throat would at times become so filled with mucous that I could not talk, and altogether it was very annoying. I also suffered a great deal of the time with headaches. I got a bottle of California Catarrh Cure at Plaisted’s drug store In South Norwalk, and I think it is the grandest stufl‘ in the world. It has cured me of , all the disagreeable suffering I have had for so long ; my throattroubles me no more, and I haven’t had a .head- ache for weeks. I have recommended it to several friends who have used it with satisfactory results, and we all unite in saying it is a wonderful medicine.” California Catarrh Cure is especially prepared tor treatment of the mucous membrane. It allays the inflamation, checks the disease and arrests and re- pairs the decay of this delicate lining. It is a curative agent for colds, coughs, hay fever, bronchitis, asthma, and all purely mucous affections. Use it during and after a cold, and you will never have a cold “hang on,” or even reach the ca- tarrhal stage. When catarrh is once firm— ly fixed in the nasal passages and throat," it begins to attack the mucous membrane of the passages leading either to the lungs or to the stomach‘. The result of the former course is ultimately consump- tion, of the latter what is commonly called some form of indigestion or dispep- sia. It is catarrh of the stomach, intes. tines, kidneys, and various internal pas- sages. California Catarrh Cure will pre- vent and cure all forms of catarrh, what- ever the part affected, and even will check incipient consumption. It is sold by a’l dealers; 50 cents, three times as much, one dollar.
