JUROR DOESN'T WAIT TO EXPRESS OPINION

Voices it From Box, and Mistrial is Directed

Trial of the action of Elizabeth M. BRIGGS, against Mrs. Mary RUDD came to an sudden ending yesterday afternoon in City Court, civil branch, before Judge Raymond E. WESTBURY when a juror gave voice to his opinion on the case before it was submitted to the jury.
Everything went along swimmingly in the action until the summing up was reached. In a deep voice Attorney John P. KINNEY, for the defense, began:
   "Gentlemen," he said, "do you think this woman (pointing to Mrs RUDD) would pay $500 for the furniture in the house, if she did not have a lease that would run at least a year? Gentlemen, do you think she would? He demanded.
   "I'll be darned if I would," popped up one of the jurors.
A smile began to cross Mr. KINNEY'S face after he had recovered from the first shock. The spectators in the court room began to titter, Judge WESTBURY broke into a laugh and Billy BURKE, the court stenographer, loosed a shriek of mirth that set spectators roaring.
   Judge WESTBURY immediately called the case a mistrial and, because of one juror, the action will be tried over again.

JOHN RIES
 
John M. REIS, veteran of the Civil War and for more than thirty years a member of the Police Department, died yesterday morning at the home, No. 370 Ames street, aged 76 years. He had been ill a long time and his death was not unexpected. He leaves his wife, Elizabeth KOUDOLF RIES; two sons, Henry J. and John F. RIES; three daughters, Mrs. John B. ZIMMERMAN, Mrs. F. H. MAXWELL and Miss Marie RIES; four grandchildren, and two sisters, Mrs. John SPITZ and Mrs. Joseph REGER.
     Mr. RIES was born in Rochester. His parents, Mr. and Mrs. John RIES, came to Rochester in 1836 from Alsace, then a part of France, and made their home at Jay and Child streets. That part of Rochester was known then as "Strassbourg" because of the Aisatiau element living there.
     It was there that John M. RIES was born, in the Civil War he went to the front with the Fifty-fourth Regiment and saw active service for some time. After his discharge from the army Mr. RIES returned to Rochester. He was a member of the famous Rochester Rod and Gun Club and was noted for his skill as a marksman.
     On February 17, 1875, Mr. RIES was appointed to the Rochester Police Department. He was in patrol the Hashapse street beat, which included the then notorious Murderers' row. He was able to cope with the uncertain elements that frequented his beat, and when he retired in 1905 his record was a most enviable one. Mr. RIES was attacked by rheumatism in his final years on the police force and was in the patrol-wagon service for a while before he was retired on a pension. He was a member of the Police Benevolent Association.

INVENTS DEVICE FOR AUTOS
 
Instrument May Be Used as Primer or Vaporizer, Rochester Man Says.
     Cheste, E. ECKHARDT, of No. (7 or 1) 4 Thayer street has invented the "Eck Vapo Primer which, it is claimed, will enable an engine to start in the coldest of weather. As explained by Mr. ECKHARDT, this instrument can be used both as a primer and vaporizor. As a primer it will burn up the carbon as fast as it enters the engine. It is claimed, and will enable the driver to start his engine in cold weather without getting out and opening the hood to prime it.
    When filled with water to be used as a vaporizer for supplying moist air to the engine, it is only necessary to pull the button on the instrument board and moistened air is at once taken into the engine, Mr. ECKHARDT says. This causes the engine to run more smoothly, prevents carbon from forming in the cylinders and removes some of the carbon previously deposited.

MAN TERRIBLY SCALDED BY STEAM WHEN VALVE BREAKS
 
    Michael COLLINS, 40 years old, at No. 43 Shelter street, is at the Hahnemann Hospital, suffering from the effect of scalding steam that burned nearly every portion of his body. His condition at midnight was very critical.

Yesterday afternoon the two men were engaged in fitting a new steam pipe of large size in one of the departments of the plant. A valve had been shut off, so that no steam could escape into the pipe. The men stood on a platform, about ten feet above the floor, and while turning the pipe the pressure of the steam is said to have caused the valve to give way and the steam burst out in a cloud over both men.
     (unreadable) in front of the valve or part of the pipe where the steam burst forth, received the entire force of the burning deluge.
     The ambulance of the Hahnemann Hospital was called and COLLINS was hurried to that institution. There it was reported that very little of his body had escaped scalding. FELERSKI was attended by a physician and he then went home.

GEORGE EASTMAN GIVES $100,000 FOR ENDOWMENT

Announced at "Roastfest" of Alumni of University
Alumni To Give Like Sum
Expectation of Campaign Committee, Judge Castleman Says in Talk -
Forty Workers to Start After Pledges To-morrow Morning

Faculty members of the University of Rochester were the victims at the alumni "roastfest" last night in the Powers Hotel when a committee of graduates disguised as members of the faculty made fun of the instructors low salaries. Their first musical number was a song in which the "professors" deplored the fact that milkmen and street cleaners were getting more wages than they, and the chorus ran: "We want a raise, We must have a raise!"
   Following this was a mock faculty meeting, and later came presentation of degrees. The graduates on this committee were George B. SNELL, ‘11, chairman; Norman NAIRN, ‘09;  Harry H. SERVIS, 09; James P. SNELL, ‘09; Matthew LAWLESS, ‘09; Ernest A. PAVIOUR, ‘10; Lester O. WILDER, ‘11; Harry CRITTENDEN, ‘12; Raymond N. BALL, ‘14; Homer STOREY, ‘15; Harold SHANTZ, ‘15. Added to the program were several popular songs by two young women and many instrumental selections by an orchestra.

                                                      JUDGE CASTLEMAN SPEAKER

   The speakers were Special County Judge J. Warrant CASTLEMAN and Dr. Rush RHEES, president of the university, Herbert W. BRAMLEY, presided.
Judge CASTLEMAN spoke on behalf of the University of Rochester's $1,000,000 endowment fund campaign, emphasizing the need of adequate compensation for the teachers of to-day who are training the world's thinkers.
"It is a patriotic duty," he said, "for it goes down to the future of our republic. Men in college to-day must solve the world's questions, and they are going to be confronted by problems the like, of which have never been seen. This is what I consider the most important reason for our endowment fund campaign. The great question of to-day is whether democracy is safe for itself, and the youth of to-day and of the coming generation must solve this question. They cannot solve it if the training they are to receive is not equal to the training they get now."

                                                         EASTMAN GIVES $100,000

Judge CASTLEMAN announced that George EASTMAN already had given $100,000 to the fund and he estimated that a like amount would be raised from the alumni outside of Rochester.
   "This," he said, "will leave a total of $800,000 to be raised in the city."
Dr. Rush RHEES pointed to the bigger aspects of the drive.
   "We cannot look for very large gifts," he said. "But we want the people to think largely concerning our enterprise. We want every one to participate in the largest terms in which he is able. We must sell the university to the city, and the community has now the opportunity to correct an unfairness and to see that the men of the faculty get decent compensation. I firmly believe we are going forward to success."

                                               FORTY TEAMS TO GO OUT THURSDAY

Dr. RHEES then outlined the plans for the campaign, which, he said, was to be conducted largely by the alumni for the university. He announced that all the workers will meet to-night in the Chamber of Commerce to be organized. The entire personnel, he explained, is to be divided into four divisions each in charge of a captain. Eac division will be divided into ten teams, made up of five workers each. The forty teams thus formed will be designated by class numerals from 1881 to 1920. The four divisions will be named after the classes, freshmen, sophomore, junior and senior. The four captains are Herbert W. BRAMLEY, Henry D., SHEDD, W. Roy McCANNE and Louis S. FOULKES.
Following the organization meeting of the 240 workers in the Chamber of Commerce at 6:30 o'clock this evening; forty teams of canvessers will be loosed upon the city to-morrow morning to begin the week's task of getting together sufficient pledges from alumni and noncollegiate citizens. At the first meeting, this evening, the workers will select prospects cards and listen to campaign instructions from Dr. Rush RHEES and Joseph T. ALLING, chairman of the Trustees Committee of the drive.

63-POUND STURGEON LANDED BY DEPUTY

Story Comes From Braddock's By Way Of Jail
A sturgeon weighing sixty-three pounds was landed by Deputy Sheriff Edward P. FOSMIRE at Braddock's bay yesterday afternoon, according to an official bulletin issued at the jail last night. FOSMIRE was fishing for bullheads with a heavy hook, says the bulletin, when he felt a hard tug on his line. He started to pull, and until his line was nearly in he thought he had a log.
FOSMIRE, who was not far from shore, called for his friends to bring a gun and they set out in another boat. A man known as "Concrete Charlie" brought his boat up near FOSMIRE's and sighted the fish. He grabbed a heavy rifle which he had brought along and shot the big fish behind the gills. The fish was three feet two inches long.
FOSMIRE and his friends will have a feast to-night at his home.

MAN KILLED BY AUTO IN STREET AT BATH

Driver Not Held as Pedestrian Stepped Before car

Bath, Nov. 11 - Patrick BEATTY was almost instantly killed this evening, when he was struck by an automobile driven by Charles HERRMANN. The accident occurred in West Washington avenue in this village, when Mr. BEATTY attempted to cross the street and was evidently not seen by the driver of the car in time to avert the accident. Mr. BEATTY sustained a fractured skull, a broken back, his chest was broken in and one leg fractured. Mr. HERRMANN stopped his car and rushed to the aid of the stricken man. Mr. BEATTY was but partially conscious. Dr. WYNKOPP was called, but Mr. BEATTY died before he could be removed to the hospital.

Mr. HERRMANN reported the accident to the police, but no blame attached to him, as it is believed Mr. BEATTY failed to notice the approach of the car, stepping directly in its path and affording the driver no time to change his course or stop the machine.
Mr. BEATTY was one of Bath's oldest and best known residents. He was born in Ireland 80 years ago, but had lived in Bath over fifty years. He leaves a son, William, in New York; a daughter, Mrs. Henry McCABE, of Bath, and a second daughter, Mrs. Joseph MALONEY, of Newark, N.J.
