These new lines, with the tunnel connections of the Long Island road, will give all needed transit facilities. The Sage Foundation has also acquired forty acres in Jamaica South, at Rockaway road and Lincoln avenue, in which a similar development to that at Forest Hills is expected to follow the letter. At both there will be erected model homes, with the latest and best methods of construction and sanitation and attractive surroundings. The scheme is not designed to be a charitable one, but is of a truly philanthropic nature, intended to help those who are seeking to help themselves to better their living conditions. The plan to erect these houses is part of the general scheme of the Sage Foundation for civic betterment.

After the death of Russell Sage, his widow, Mrs. Margaret Olivia Slocum Sage, decided to devote a portion of her great fortune to this purpose. For this end she set apart $10,000,000 and formed a board of trustees, composed of men of the highest standing, to manage It.

Carey, however, declares that Stanko is the man with whom Miss Van Spall left Union Course, and, because he is in Wilkes-Barre, he presumes that the girl Is there also. From what a reporter was able to learn to-day. the Stanko-Van Spall affair was a case of love at first sight. The missing girl is described by Mr. and Mrs.

Bastian Tuyt, her brother-in-law and sister, with whom she made her home, as being of a retiring disposition, with no male acquaintances. When she went to the carnival on the opening night she saw Stanko, a handsome youth of 20 years, and each found cause for admiration In the other. An elopement resulted, and it is thought that Miss Van Spall is now Mrs. Stanko, and Is being taught the art of reading palms and telling fortunes. When a reporter visited the Tuyt home last evening he was informed that no news had been received of the missing girl, but Mr.

Tuyt believes that she will write to her relatives before long. Mr. Tuyt says that the police have dropped Leader William Wentz of the Fifth Assembly District, the well-known Repub-Sican politician, against whom a com-jplaint was made by a game warden of cruelty to a duck, as told in Saturday's came to an end yesterday afternoon when, PEESONAL.

The Rev. Father Alpha E. Parker of Our Lady of Lourdes Church went before Bishop Charles E. McCormlck during the day and obtained a special dispensation permitting the marriage to take place. Father Parker arrived at the hospital about 5 o'clock and was immediately led to the room In which the relatives of both bride and bridegroom were already assembled.

Great masses of flowers, sent by friends and sympathizers, filled a corner of the room. The ceremony was hurried through, as the couple were in a very nervous condition.

Almost every bone in the youth's body was broken, the surgeons said.

Young De Bragga was taking a short cut by walking along the Long Island Railroad tracks. Just as he was passing the railroad station at Glendale he saw an express train approaching on the eastbound track, while, at the same time, he heard the whistle ot a locomotive on the westbound track, upon which he was walking. Terrified by his sudden danger, the youth became confused, stepped over onto the east track and then back to the west one.
