wtiirh„beoomes available iiunjediately.
Statement to thin effect was made by
Mr. Duke’s executors to the board
of trustees of the Duke endowment,
which held a meeting in New York
City today. '
. This means that the Duke endow
, ment, established by Mr, Duke for ed
ucational, humanitarian and religious
purposes i,n the Carolinas, has re
sources double the amount originally
set aside for such purposes bv Mr.
Duke. This will give the trustees
a fund of $70,000,000, immediately
, available for education ami charitable
purposes in Nortji and South Caro
lina. intituling hospitalization work,
orphanage work and thd support of
aged Methodist' ministers. in addition
lo the millions which go to Duke Uni
versity, one of the chief benfieiaries
of the foundation established last De
cember and of "Sir. Duke’s will.
‘Trustees Meet.
The meeting of the board of trus
tees-of the Duke endowment at its
New York office today was the tirst
| meeting of-ctlm board since the (feat It
of Mr. Duk(\ All of the directors
I were present'Except Mis. Duke and
I Mr. E. li. (Jeer, < of Greenville. who
! was prevented from attending, by
! illness. Those present werfi Messrs,

I’arker, N. B. Bell, of New York,
j w. S. IA E. c. Marshall. C. I.
Burkholder. X. A. C’oeke. of Char
lotte, and Dr. IV. S. Rankin, of Ral
eigh.
Mr. George C 4. Allen was elected
chairman of the board of trustees in s
the place of the htte Mr. Duke and
IV. S. Uee, of Charlotte;, was made
vice chairman in the place of Mr.
Alien.
Fund Increased.
The executors of Mr. I hike ex
plained to the meeting that Mr. Duke,
hy his will am} the. codicil thereto,
liad bequeathed to the’ Duke endow
ment, tirst. $10,000,000, of which $4.-
000.000 was to be used in founding
at and for Duke University a medical
school, hospital and nurses’ home, the
income from the residue to be used
for Duke University; and, second, a
portion of his residuary estate, which
portion is estimated would amount
to considerably in excels of $20,000,-
000. of which $7,000,000 was to be
expended in expanding and extending
Duke t niyersity. the income from this
portion toibe used, ten per cent for
Duke University aiql 00 per cent for
general hospital purposes in the states
of North Carolina and SoiTth Caro
lina. »
The executors iwinted out in addi
tion that the portion of the residuary
estate set aside tp produce an annuity
for Mrs. Duke for her life would at
Mrs. Duke’s death belong to the Dukv
endowment, thus making the aggre
gate qf tige bequest under the will to'
fH£ CONCOftD DAILY TRIBUNE
the Duke endowment for] charitable
purposes approximately $40,000,000,
a sum equal to that originally placed
by' Mr. Duke in the Ihike endowment
ahen ♦e founded it.
v Hospital Work.
It is to he noted that while Duke'
University has ecme in for a large
additional sum in Mr. Duke’s will',
and the codicil to the will, the hospital !
baupe conies in for a tremendous in-1
crease also, it being specified that !M)
per cent, of that igfftion of Mr. Duke's
residuary estate which is left to the |
Duke endowment, except $7,000,000
which js to Be used for building pur
poses at Duke University, shall be
applied to general hospital
in the statesVf North and South Car
olina. e w
It is apparent, that lit. Duke
gave longer consideration to the hos
pital featuriKpf the work to be ad
ministered through the Duke endow
ment. the possibilities of the work
grew upon hint.-' Probably fpw peo
ple in the Carolinas have yet gained
au.\ real conception of the magnitude
of this particular humanitarian activ
ity provided for so liberally by Mr.
Duke in the original Duke endowment
and increased so trepiendously through
his will. Thirty-two per cent us the
income from the original endowment
of $40,000,000 was directed to this
purpose mid. it is understood, plans
are already being worked out by Dr.
IV. S. Rankin, who will actively di
rect the hospital work Under the
. Duke endowment for the development
of this feature of the work, to be ad
ministered through the board of trus
tees of tlie endowment.
Resolution of Respect
loard of trustees qf the Duke |
endowment, a} the conclusion of its
session today, adopted the following
resolution on the death of Mr. Duke
' and then adjourned out of respect
for his memory:
’’ ’My amhition is that the reve
nues of such developments shall ad
j minister to the social welfare, as
tile j operation of such developments
in admipisteiring to the .economic
welfare of the communities they serve.’
Tlius speaks James it. Duke through
lh» instrument establishing (lie Duke
endowment lie founded, and these
simple, soulful words express com
pletely tip' great purpose for which.
h(> fetKii-od. tlic sacred trust 'lie. coni-,
1 nutlrif tq 'our charge.
"It lias pleased God ill His infinite
wisdom to call home this faithfti
servant in the full plentitude of his
powers and their devotion to this
cause sublime. Our dear friend, our
wise counsellor' our honored chief lia ; s
entered llitough the gates Nil to the
City Eternal and our earthly Bouse
is left (into, us desolate.
"He needs no eulogy from our lieu,

but truly' keep the faith we plighted
Thf structure he has reared will be
a healing light unto his Southland
J and generations yet unborn wall rise
up there to call his blessed for the
I good lie has done.
' "In laying this our humble tribute
to his shrine, let ifs.' therirfore, high

planned, believing as lie pften said:
'That from on high his eyes shall be

.widow and daughter and another
placed in the archives of the Uni

Benjamin Knalttr. New York taxi
cab driver, was presented with five
pennies by Dr. Joseph K|ien, pas
senger.
“I)o you call that a tip?" inquired
Knaster. He expressed his disgust
By throwing the money in the donor's
face. i
Dr. Klein calleiLu policeman. Tin
taxi driver spent three days in jail.
’ “A tip,” Magistrate Simpson toid
Knaster. "is only a gratuity. There
is nothing in law to compel a man
to give a tip. If he does so, it is
in consideration' and appreciation of
service."
