A $20,000,060 endownment fund Is needed
by the University of "Pennsylvania, ac
cording to Provost Smith. That 'nmount ,1s
nbecessary, the provoit warned members
of the alnmnl, to stop the raids on the
University teaching staff by other colleges.
to obtain the services of new men, provide
nfew equipment nnd other enentlals.
"An endowment fund of 120.000.000,"
Provost Smith said, "would enable us to
do ns we wish. Money Is heeded to keep
abreast of the times. ,The- running of a
big educational Institution Involves a vast
expenditure, of money nnd In the matter
of finance we nre not bb fortunate ns
Hnrvard, Columbia and other colleges."
Provost Smith spoke In the highest terms
of many professori who had rejected tempt
ing offers from Oilier colleges and remained
lovnl to the University. "The professors
nre not mercenary," the Provost added,
"but one 6ould hardly blnmo tnem for seek
ing old-age protection nnd the offers hae
b:en many and tempting."
! "There aro four Instances which stand
out ery clearly. Four professors were ap
proached by men from other colleges with
rich halt In the form of hlch salaries nnd
'no ono could havo blamed the professors
I had they ncepted, ns they aro worth the.
salaries In every way. Thcro Is no reason
J In tho fcorld why they should not reap tho
J benefits of their learning. If they nre worth
'I J5000 a year to other colleges they cer
1 talnly aro worth that to the University of
J Pennsjlvanla."
Speaking of tho losses Bustatned by raids
on the staff, Provost Smith mentioned tho
caso of Dean McCrca, who loft tho Univer
sity on June 30, for a more lucrative posi
tion nt Columbia. "A good dean cannot bo
found every day, and wo lost a splendid
man when Denn McCrea left," the Provost
aid.
The University of Pennsylvania, It was
explained, has An endowment fund of
B,000,0p0, which yields nn Income of ap
proximately $200,000. This sum, ndded to
the Income .from tuition rce, does not sup
port the University, nnd tho shortage Is
mado up by the State. Harvard has an
endowment fund of $34,000,000.

KArSER ASKS GERMAN '
PEOPLE TO BE FIRM IN
WAR'S CRUCIAL STAGE
Suffer In Silenco as Iron Hurri
cane Rages Against Army,
He Writes From West
' Front
"ALL MUST BEAR HUNGER"
LONDON, July 28.
A letter from Kaiser Wllhelm pieslonate
ly appealing to th German people to stand
firm nnd Unwavering no matter how the
tide of battle flows has been printed In nil
the German papers. The letter was circu
lated by tho semiofficial Wolff Nevvs
Agency,
Dated from tho front In the West, tho
letter says In part:
'Tho battle Is raging, huge beyond all
previous Imagination. Rejuvenated, per
fectly equipped with all they want, Russia's
armies again have broken ngalnst bur bul
warks In tho I'.iBt. This has cnsoil tho sit
uation for Italy. Tranco 1ms experienced
a regeneration In thin' war of which she
hardly believed herself capable. She ha
dragged her dilatory English ally Into Join
ing the offensive on tho Sommo and what
ever Inwnrd worth tho Brit sh army has It
now has nn abundance of nrtlltery.
"The Iron hurricane" rages ngalnst our
brnvo German men nt the Somme. Negroes
nnd white men come upon uh In wnvo after
wnve, In ever fresh storms, wild and sullen,
Ever) thing Is at stake Tho Ice cold linber
daihcrs on tho Thames yearn for our holiest
things. Tho health and Ufa of our women
nnd our children nro menaced. Even neu
trals muit bear hunger. Only tho depths
of the ocenn now nre open to us Should
we bo victorious thero li threatening n
'wnr nfter the war' When the best energies
nnd power of the nation, now expressed by
Its Joy in arms, shall bo taxed to the utmost
to mtot rnvv force, hatred nnd calumny.
"What, Gorman people. Is your duty In
thin hour? The nrmy wants no exhorta
tions. It has fought sup'erhumanly It will
fight until final victory. But the people
at home this Is their duty. To suffer In
silence, to bear their renunciations with
dignity .
"Thoso nt homo nre not all doing these
things. Not all nre alive to the tremendous
seriousness of tho times. Aro our people
at home tho snnfo people ns nt the 'begin
ning of the war? The writer fears not.
Let us rdnember that this Is no ordinary
rupture of ordinary life. It Is the hour
of destiny for our Fatherland, tho hour
which will Inlluenco us .for centuries. Wo
must unite In opposltloi to the entire world
We must nil co-operate In tho struggle.
"Any man or woman who hangs his or
her head or surfers despondency to enter
his soul Is guilty now of treason. Every
word of complaint or discouragement Is n
crime ngalnst our fathers, our sons and our
brothers. Let us show the greatness of the
German nntlon. Do not Jeopardize every
thing by petty squabbling. It Is no time
for Interncclno strife. But It Is time for
holding together. In this hour the best
blood of the nation, mature men and bud
ding youths, nro presenting thMr breasts
to tho Iron hall of tho English, Russian nnd
African hordes. Everything Is nt stake."
This Is In strange contradiction to re
peated assertions from German sources
that the British offensive has reached Its
hlghwater mark. It Is t'aken here to show
conclusively that Germany Is thoroughly
alarmed.

tive to her, were arrested in Camden to

who saya he fears for his life He is six
feet tall and weighs about 176 pounds
Assertions that a system of signals,
rivaled only In melodramas, was used to
Inform the other man of the absence of
the woman's husband were made at tho
hearing In the office of Recorder Stackhouse
and before City Prosecutor De Unger
Thoso arrested wero Mrs Anna Harring

"HELLO, KRIZ0VENSKY" ENDED;
WANTS IT CALLED CAMPBELL
Boxer Sure New Name Would Produce
Friendships Impossible Before
I want to be known by a name that I like,
Vr a name that la pleaaln to Hear:
r want to be known on tha Whit Llehted Plko
By a name that the spdrtlng- men eheer.
So sang William Krlzovensky, profes
sional boxer. Perhaps the reader of qport
Ing pages has never heard of Krlzovensky
as Krlzovensky, It is because of that
Ignorance that he would be known by a
"name that Is pleasing to hear," I. e,, Wil
liam Campbell. That's his "professional
name."
Krlzovensky is the name by which' he was
introduced to the world., Now he wants
to change it and he has filed a petition In
Common Pleas Court No. 1 for permission
to do so. He declares that ever since he
was seven years old he has been known by
the name of Campbell, the name of his sis
ter who married to get rid of the other,
and that he Is known In the pugilistic ranks
under the Scottish rather than the Rus
sian cognomen.
"And," he adds, "whenever I sign my real
name It caused me great Inconvenience,"

STORIES OF ANCIENT RITES
Rites, customs nnd conventions which
make civilized people quake hnvp been un
earthed for tho first time in 30 hitherto un
known tribes of tho Amn7on basin by Dr
Wlltlnm C. Fnrnboe, of the University of
Pennsylvania, who for tho past three jears
has been living among them. Doctor Fara
beo has been thcro making collections of
ethnological matorlnl for the University
Museum
Doctor Fnrnbco discovered theso tribes
nnd has brought back pictures nnd stories
about them which seem almost beyond com
prehension He Is tired from tho exhaus
tive work and nt present Is resting In tho
mountains upitnte before undertaking the
work of classlfjlng his collection nnd mak
ing out hh reports of the expedition. The
reports will consist of many volumes and
It will tnko several years for completion.
SOMn OF THE CURIOS.
Hundreds of visitors to tho University
Museum In the past months have noticed
the enormous pottery Jirs which Doctor
Farnbeo sent from the upper Amazon.
These Jars aro tho high point of nrtlstlc
achievement of the Conebo Indians of
Peru. No one elso can make Jars su.ch
as they make. Some of the Jars, which nro
lnrge enough to hold severnh gallons of
ll.. 1.1 t.ni,A n nlla nn ihn fhnt Tin DTlfi Can
understand how they hold the liquid. The
mnnuracturo or mo mTieriai m u bv-.o-all
their own, which they guard Jealously.
Some of tho smaller Jars have walls ns
thin as paper. Mnklng pottery of this sort
is the only nrt which the Conebo Indians
possess.
Many havo been tho guesses at what the
Jars signify, but It remained for Doctor
Fnrabeo to solvo tho mystery upon his
return. They nro tho hopo chests of the
Conebo girls, the dowry box, ns it were.
The Jars nre made for each girl as sho
reaches the marriageable age. which In that
tribe Is about 12 years Without the Jar
she Is never supposed or expected to take
a-husband.
PECULIAR RITES
Dut before she Is eligible for marriage
there must be certain peculiar rites. One of
.!. .nl.iQ nf n hnrrlhlft orBV following
a drunken debauch. The drink on this occa
sion Is a concoction wmen most civuneu
people would shun The women of the
..ikA .!.. i..,m nt n native nlant nnd
spit the cud Into a huge trough. Over this
"mush" is poureu water, rermeiiuwu"
takes place, which results In a very heady
beer When tho fermentation Is completed
.i ,- i Had., fnr hAr rnmlnc-out nartv
Then she must get "tipsy." That Is part of
the rite. After mar., nornoie cereuiuuico
nre performed nnd then she Is ready for
,,i. Tha inr which nlavs the Imnor-
tant part of holding the liquor nt her com
ing-out party is one or. ine mui iuuua(n
articles of her housekeeping outfit,
Ann th. tnnsr eruesome of the tales
which Doctor Farabee brings back with
him from Soutn America w mo owi "
the head-hunting Mundurucus of the lower
vnlley, who at one time wero one of the
most famous tribes of the southern hemi
sphere. They are now reduced to a mere
remnant. The prlpclpal occupation of the
Mundurucu tribe used to be the hunting
of their enemies to secure their heads. They
boiled the heads to get the teeth. That
was all they wanted.
NECKLACE OF HUMAN TEETH.
They strung the teeth Into things that
looked like necklaces and of these made
hi- nnlv nrtlnla nf wearlnc aD-
parel. The sport vns considered cheer
ful by the Mundurucu tribes, who Insist
that they are not at all bloodthirsty, but
that they simply- wanted the teeth for
decorations, and that that was the only
way to get them.
Unfortunately for the teeth hunters,
their enemies' relations resented the cus
tom, nnd In a Bhort time the teeth w ear
era were In the minority. They were killed
off by concerted efforts of their enemies.
As a result all except a few of them are
dead. The few remaining are now being
Civilized. The entire tribe, when Doctor
Farabee visited it, had but four of the
gruesome belts. Three of these Doctor
Farabee secured and sent to the University
Museum, where they now are.
Ope of the strange customs of the Wal
Wat Indians of British Guiana Is that the
father takes to his hammock whenever a
child Is born. There he remains for an
entire month. The mother, however, gets
up and goes about her duties as usual.
Doctor Farabee says this Is a survival of
some ancient 'custom which has not been
explained.

Court of Appeals Meets to Hear
Application, but None Is
Offered
LONDON, July 28.
Tho Court of Criminal Appeals, sat espe
cially this morning to hear any possible
application that might bo made In behalf
of Sir Roger Casement, who Is under sen
tence to be hanged on August 3 for high
treason, but none was made.
Tho same flvo Justices who heard Case
ment's nppenl from tho high treason ver
dict sat today, with Justice, Darling pre
siding. When the Justices entered court two
letters were passed up to Justice Darling
Tho presiding Justice then nnnounced that
tho court had assembled because It had
been Informed by a Crown oillclal that
Casement's counsel had notified him that
application would be mado for consideration
of some of the points mentioned In Case
ment's notice of appeal which Alexander
Sullivan, solicitor for Casement, had not
urged.
Mr Sullivan stnted publicly In court that
he had abandoned the plan to make the plea.
The statement of Mr Sullivan was not
made verbally, but was contained In a com
munication to the court, which was read
by Justice Darling.
Justice Darling said he was not surprised
nt Mr. Sullivan's actions, as, the court held
tho opinion that there was nothing In the
points mentioned
There was a suggestion that Mr Sullivan
had no authority to nbandon the points
without having Judgment passed upon their
merits, but the attitude taken by Casement's
counsel was upheld by the Justices.

notes, Says Chairman

NEW YORK, July 28. First formal Indi
cation that Mexico will bo the main Issuo
on wheh the Republicans will attack the
Wilson Administration In the presidential
campaign was contained in a statement
issued today by National Cfialrmnn Will
cox, ns follows)
"All statements made In newspapers or
elsewhere to the effect that the attitude of
tho Rppubllcan party toward tho situation
In Mexico Is dictated by any sinister Influ
ence, corporate or otherwise, nre contrary
to thp facts Our Inlerest In Mexican nf
falrs Is the result splcly nnd exclusively of
tho maladministration of American relatlnnn
Jjwlth Mexico nnd the various Mexican fao-
tlont. Tho weakness of tho W.lson Admin
litrntlon In dealing with tho Mexican ques
tion Is so fully before tho American peopto
that It Is n vltnl Issue In thin campaign.
"It t therefore not possible for the Dem
ocratic party to cvnde the responsibility for

motives Tho Issuo Is plain and clenr-cut.
It Is. tho principle of tho Republican party
to Insist upon the full protection of Amer

DEMOCRAT MSCOUNT
HUGHES'S FiRST ATTACK
!'! I i 1. I ll
Wilson Already at Work on Ac
ceptance, Though Opponent
Makes His Monday
WASHINGTON. July J-AJmlnlstratfon
leaders havo their political eyes and ears
turned toward next Monday. That's When
Chnrles Evans Hughes will receive format
notification of his nomination for President
nnd will reply with nn address marking
the opening of his campaign.
Thoso clots to the President say thy
"nre not worried" about what the late Jus
tice may say. Nevertheless, they are "keen
ly Interested," They believe tho speech will
be divided into three principal parts:
A criticism of tho President's Mexi
can policy and foreign policy.
General charges that the Democratic
party Is unable to cope with the busi
ness upheavals botlnd to come after ths
war.
Appeal for the restoration of tha
Ilepubllcah pnrty to power "to bring a
return of respect abroad and business
like administration nt homo."
In the meantime tho President has not
vvnltcd for Hughes's speech to preparo his
own nddress of acceptance. Ono of his In
timate friends said he believed the first
draft was completed, subject to change
should the Republican candidate spring any
surprises.
Senator James, who will notify the Pres
ident of his rcitomlnntlon, Is, however,
nwaltlng Hughes's speech Monday before
outlining what he will say n the notifica
tion meeting In New Jersey.
