entitled by his rank hut Instead took
command of the northern division
of the army with headquarters at St
Louis It is understood he will now
make his home in Washington Gen
eral Corbin has been best known as ad
jutant general of the army but he has
seen exciting service in the field in the
course of his career He was born in
Ohio in 1842 and entered the volunteer
service of the United States as a sec
ond lieutenant in the Eighty third Ohio
volunteer infantry in 18G2 He saw
four years of active service at this
time and was honorably discharged
with the brevet of brigadier general
A few weeks later he was commis
sioned second lieutenant In the regular
army and assigned to the Seventeenth
infantry Shortly afterward he was
appointed g a captaincy and assigned
to the Thirty eighth infantry and for
twelve years thereafter he was con
tinuously in command of his company
at stations in the west engaged in In
dian campaigning and frontier duty
His most Important services were ren
dered during the Spanish war when ho
was adjutant general He retained
that post after he became a major
general and until he was advanced to
be lieutenant general last April but
after the organization of the general
staff in 1903 he was In command of
the department of the east with head
quarters at New York and was also in
command in the Philippines previous
to taking his most recent command
that of the northern division of thb
army His last important official act
was a report in favor of restoration of

Roger C Sullivan of Chicago who
has become conspicuous through his
controversy with William J Bryan is
connected with several prominent Chi
cago corporations including the Ogden
Gas company and Cosmopolitan Elec
tric company It is on account of his
corporation connections that Mr Bryan
objects to his prominence in the Dem
ocratic organization Mr Sullivan was
born in Belvidere
HI in 1861 and
made his entry into
politics as custo
dian of the Cook
County hospital In
1SSC he was ap
pointed deputy col

revenue and in 1890
was chosen clerk of
the Chicago probate
court
Mr Sullivan is at
present the Demo
cratic national com
mitteeman from II-
linois Mr Bryan
SOGER C SULLIVAN
has maintained that his election to this
post was not legal and while in Europe
sent a request that Mr Sullivan tender
his resignation of the office in the in
terest of the party This Mr Sullivan
declined to do and he secured action
from the Democratic state convention
which was interpreted as an Indorse
ment of his attitude The same con
vention indorsed Mr Bryans candi
dacy for the presidential nomination in
190S In his recent Chicago speech Mr
Bryan said he did not want an indorse
ment given uit such circumstances
and he made some quite pointed re
marks about the course pursued by
Committeeman Sullivan
Another Sullivan in tho public eye is
James U Sullivan of New York the
athlete and manager of athletics who
was so signally honored by the king of
Greece recently for his services in con
nection with the Olympic games at
Athens last spring Mr Sullivan who
was a prominent figure in connection
with the worlds fair at St Louis
where he had charge of the physical
culture department is secretary of
the American Athletic union and was
American commissioner to the Olym
pic games His work In this capacity
was so much appreciated that King
George singled him out for special
honor and conferred upon him the
golden cross of the Royal Order of the
Saviour The be
stowal of this deco
ration is the exclu
sive privilege of
the king The Royal
Order of the Sav
iour is the most
honorable order in
Greece its member

Mr Sullivan was
born In New York
forty six years ago
jahese Sullivan ani though his hair
is now gray he still looks every inch
the athlete His athletic career be
gan when as a schoolboy of eighteen
he entered a walking match and he
was subsequently successful in con
tests in running boxing jumping and
kicking His business is that of a
publisher of books on athletics and
sports He was assistant director of
sports at the PariB exposition of 1900
and was In charge of the athletics of
the Pan American exposition at Buf
falo Under his direction the physical

terprise
Senator Thomas C Piatt who now
that the fall campaign has begun Is
again a figure in politics celebrated
his seventy third birthday the past
summer He was at Manhattan Beach
a favorite resort with him and some
newspaper men were offering their
congratulations
Life said the senator Is a fleet
ing thing The longest life passes like
a dream Nothing is
so amazing so be
wildering as times
swift flight
He smiled
Imagine he said
how Impressed with

ry Skerritt of Owe
go was Henry ran
away from his fam
ily a year after his
marriage That was t c vlatt
about 1880 and a few months ago
taking up a local paper in Chicago the
deserter read in the personal column
If Henry Skerritt who twenty
three years ago deserted his poor wife
and babe will return home said babe
will be glad to knock the stuffing out
of him
William H Crane who recently open
ed his season in New York in Alfred
Sutros The Price of Money was
once asked how it was that he never
attempted serious Shu spearern roles
But I did once replied the come
dian Years ago in the west I played
Hamlet
Did you indeed said an admirer
and friend Didnt
you have a great
success Didnt the
audience call you
before the curtain
Call me replied
Crane Why man
they dared me
It was in Cranes
early days on the
WILLIAM H CHASE stage mt he wag
assigned a part that came near being
too heavy for him He was under
study for the leading man of the com
pany and it became his duty at a crit
ical time to lift up the fainting heroine
and convey her to the wings
At the time mentioned Mr Crane
was slight and anything but strong so
that the task assigned was extremely
difficult when it is considered that the
leading woman weighed nearly 200
pounds
After sundry attempts to accomplish
the business assigned him with little
hope of its accomplishment the strain
was broken by the hearty laughter of
the audience for a strong shrill voice
from the gallery had shouted
For heavens sake man take what
you can and come back for the rest
The Countess Tolstoi whose serious
illness is reported has always insisted
on protecting her husbands health his
property and his financial Interests
and it is due to her that Count Tolstoi
is alive today and able to give his gen
ius to the service of the world Count
ess Tolstoi has been an ideal mother
to her thirteen children eight of whom
are still living She taught her chil
dren music and English herself and
has for years had complete charge of
the publishing and sale of her hus
bands books Had It not been for her
the count would have carried his doc
trines to the extreme
limit and the family
would now be penni
less No one is more
ready to give the
countess tribute than
her husband and
while their ideas dif
fer radically they
are yet extremely
happy together Wp0
When her husband
was excommunicated
from the Greek
church of Russia she
wrote God will be
COUNTESS TOL
STOI
lenient to those who even outside the
church have lived a life of humility
renunciation of the good things of this
world love and devotion His pardon
is surer for them than for those whose
miters and decorations sparkle witn
precious stones but who strike and
expel from the church those over
whom they are set as pastors
A Russian Story
The possession of land is regarded
with almost superstitious veneration
by the peasants of Russia A parallel
of this feeling Is found in the eastern
tale of Hodga who met a
peasant one day with a donkey over
whose back hung two sacks one filled
with stones the other with wheat the
stones having been added to balance
the wheat Why not divide the wheat
Into two parts Instead suggested
Hodga Delighted with
the Idea the peasant did as he was
advised and hung the two sacks of
wheat over the donkeys back And
where are your lands O wise stran
ger he asked humbly I have no
lands answered the other Your es
tates then and your palaces Inquir
ed the peasant I have none said
the other Then your houses your
gardens your orchards persisted the
man amazed I have none of these
smiled the sage What cried the en
raged peasant Do you who have no
lands and no possessions presume to
give advice to me And he unloaded
the donkey rearranged tho wheat and
stones vlb before and proceeded ohis
way
POVERTY A DISEASE
The Result or Dad Living Und Thluk
lugr mid of SInnlngr
A large part of the poverty of tho
world is a disease the result of cen
turies of bad living bad thinking and
of sinning We know that poverty Is
an abnormal condition because it does
not fit nuj human beings constitution
It contradicts the promise and tho
prophecy of the divine in man Thero
are plenty of evidences that abun
dance of all that Is good was mans
inheritance that If he claims it stout
ly and struggles persistently toward It
he will gain it
The fact is that a large part of tho
poverty of the world Is due to down
right laziness shiftlessness an un
willingness to make the effort to fight
for a competence It does not matter
how much ability one may have if ho
does not have the Inclination and tho
energy to use It it will atrophy Lazi
ness will ruin the greatest genius It
would kill the ambition of an Alexan
der or a Napoleon No gift or talent Is
great enough to withstand It The
love of ease has wrecked more careers
than anything else except dissipation
and laziness and vice usually go to
gether They are twins
There are certain traits of a strong
character which are incompatible with
preventable poverty Self reliance and
a manly Independence are foundation
stones in strong characters We often
find them largely developed in the
man who is poor in spite of all his ef
forts to get away from his poverty
who is the victim of misfortune and
disasters which he could not control
But the man who Is poor because he
has lost his courage his faith in him
self or because he Is too lazy to pay
the price for a competence lacks these
qualities and is so much less a man
He is a weak character compared with
the man who has developed powerful
mental and moral muscle in his ener
getic persistent efforts to gain a com
petence and to make the most of him
self
When you make up your mind that
you are done with poverty forever that
you will have nothing more to do with
it that you are going to erase every
trace of It from your dress your talk
your actions your home that you are
going to show the world your real
mettle that you are no longer going to
pass for a failure that you have set
your face persistently toward better
things a competence an independence
end that nothing on earth can turn yon
from your resolution you will be
amazed to see what a re enforcing
power will come to you from this in
creased confidence and self respect
The most dangerous thing about pov
erty is that Its victims often become
reconciled to it and take it for granted
that it is their fate Because they
cannot keep up appearaces and live in
the same style as their more wealthy
neighbors poor people often become
discouraged and do not try to make
the best of what they have They do
not put their best foot forward and
endeavor with all their might to throw
off the evidences of poverty If there
is anything that paralyzes power it Is
the effort to reconcile ourselves to our
unfortunate environment instead of re
garding it as abnormal and trying to
get away from it Success
Hebrew Poetry In Earnest
Hebrew poetry has power over our
feelings because it is always in dead
earnest There is no play acting here
When one sees or reads Hamlet or
Macbeth or King Lear one is ab
sorbed in the distress and suffering but
behind the absorption is the sense of
detachment from real affairs Uncon
sciously we feel that we can afford to
take part by imagination in the suffer
ing because after all It Is not real
To understand and appreciate the
poetry of the Old Testament one must
remember that it is always real The
sufferings or the joy or the faith is
the experince of real men uttering
forth the depths of their soul The
poetry had always the direct and prac
tical purpose of unburdening real feel
ing There is no make believe here
Even in Job the apparent form of a
drama is the thinnest of masks for the
deep and real feelings which He under
neath The book Is not an effort of the
author to imagine how such a man as
Job suffering such trials would have
felt but rather the expression of actual
distress over the hopeless plight of his
people The mental tortures under
which Job writhes are therefore those
of real people in real and harrowing
perplexity and the overwhelming pow
er of the answer of tho Almighty the
direct witness of a faith which could
not be daunted by the most grievous
trials J H Gardiner in Atlantic
Basilisks and DraRona
One of the peculiarities of the an
cient writers on natural history sub
jects was the implicit faith which they
placed In the genuineness of the vari
ous basilisk and dragon stories which
were told to them Brunetto for an
instance to the point relates with all
soberness that the basilisk is the king
of serpents He wears a white crest
upon his head and such is the abun
dance of his venom that the air is
poisoned wherever this dire reptile
passes Trees in which he makes his
home exhale such a poisonous odor
that birds in flying over are so over
come with it that they fall to the
ground dead
The dragon says the same au
thor Is the very largest of serpents
and Inhabits especially India and Ethi
opia When he flies out of the caverns
In which he makes his home he fur
rows the air with such violence as to
make it gleam with fire His mouth Is
small and he has not the power to in
flict deadly wounds with his teeth
In his tail however his power lies
and with It he can instantly strangle
the largest elephant
