J. J. DonahUH, Chief of Police;
Dear Hlr I am compelled to be out of the
city until October 1 and fear that while I
iitn away my husband will bo rather guy.
Will you please llnd out what company he
keeps and what time he goes to bed nlghta
and let mo know. Find Inclosed Btatnped
envelope for reply. Very truly yours,

The man who coined tho phrase, "tell
your troubles to a policeman," sounded tho
koyaoto of a comic opera that ha been
enacted since the dawn of time and Is being
played today upon the streets of Omaha.
Tho policeman Is tho father confessor for
nil creeds and all conditions. Tho news
boy who Is "shortchanged" of a coppor cent
tens his troubles to a policeman and the
mllllonalro banker who fears ha will ho held
up whlto going homo of a nlsht Joes tho
same.
Somo modern nowspapors have sought to
usurp this prerogative of tho bluecoat by
starting a "heart to heart talk" department,
but tho Beatrice Uarefacts does not llvo
that can tako the placo of tho big man with
the braes buttons. Thcro Is a suspicion that
lleatrlce Uarefacts does not wear a uniform,
nnd no, of course, sho would bo hampered
in the giving nf advice.
Tho noto at tho top of this column Is an
abridgement of an actual letter received by
tho chief within tho last ten days. Tho
wrltor Becmed to think the pollco depart
ment of Omaha Includes a bureau for the
iiitnir tin of ovldcnco to bo' used In the
divorce courts, but In this sho Is no far
thnr wrong than that largo class of citizens
who bellevo that tho department is a gi
gantlc collection ngency, with tho power
nnd disposition to put men in jnu ior ueui.

Another woman not long ago called at the
station with a somewhat similar com
plaint, though in her case matter had
progressed fnrther. Slid was posltlvo her
husband was untruo to ho Sho oven knew
the namo of the "corespondent" "But 1
lovo my husband." sho said, "nnd all I ask
of you Is to nrrost that woman and send
her to tho penitentiary, nnd then bring
my husband homo to me. And by tho way,"
.h. n,M,.,i in loavlnK. "whatever you do,
don't let my husband's namo got Into tho

This request showed that tho woman 8

man vested with Imperialistic power. He

he could lot go scott free, and it would

Tho neighborhood of which Ninth and

especially prolific of queor plaints. One

The third and last Incident of this class
belonging to tho neighborhood was a clothes

stoveplpo of one emptied Its volume of vapor
into the parlor window or tno omer. inu oi

was of a cottngo built upon an eminence,

woman told hor story to the policeman Bhe
said sho thought from tho Bmcll of th
smoke that her neighbor of tho lowlandi
had converted hor kitchen Into a tallow ren

One woman complained to tho chief early
this summer that an enemy of hers living
on tho same street had como In tho night
nml unwed weed seeds in hor onion bod,
Another, who had rented her houso fur
nlnhcd to n friend, returned to find a mirror
broken and rushed forthwith to the police
ttftHnn with n hard luck Btory. She was
sure that this meant seven years of mlsfor
tune for her aud hers. It meant death, dl
enBe. famine and pestilence. Tho capta
finally convinced her that the hondo worke
against tho breaker of the mirror and no
against the owner thereof, which seemed to

To sit for a day In tho olllco of a poltc
captain la to bo convinced that superstition
is not yet dead. One day last week a well
dressed and apparently Intelligent woman
called to say that Bhe bolleved sho wa

purpose was to innko her leave hor litis

reason for leaving him, yet sovcral times

well. The note was In hor own handwrit

It. Sho knew that this particular medium
was In lovo with her husband, and was
satisfied that the Sibyl was exorcising her
diabolical art to wreck her home. Tho
best advice the 'captalu could give her
was to wako up.

True Success Defined
Success is described and defined In many
ways- some good nnd some bad.
I am afraid that a very cheap or vulgar
habit Is coming In of measuring success
by the amount of money a man has scraped
together. Do not people mean money when
they aski "Is he a successful man?" "Is
he a successful author?" "Is ho a success
ful minister?" or "Is he a successful In
ventor?" Now. realty, an Inventor Is a successful
Inventor when the machine he Invents does
hat It Is made to do; un author Is a suc
cessful author If his book does what he
rote it for, and a man is a successful
man who does well what a man Is made
for.
When, therefore, I read In a newspaper
that a successful merchant has died, I ask
myself If that man had really done well
hat a merchant Is for. A merchant Is a
man whose business Is to transfer the dif
ferent things which peopte want, from
those who havo them to those who need
them. If a merchant succeeds In delivering
to me a piano in my log cabin In Montana
by such methods that it is not Injured
and In less tlmo than would have been
needed, but for him, and so arranges be
tween me nnd tho man who mnd the
Instrument, that I can have Us use with -
less coBt than I could have had it at with.

nearer to tho plano'makor and If tho latter
receives what ha ought to have nnd I
avo my piano In good condition, nnd the
merchant Is fairly paid for tho work ho
has done why, then ho la a successful
merchant.
With this success of hia. tho business of
accumulating money has nothing to do. It
is n test, of more or leas value, of his
temperance, his honor, his Industry. Hut

Now, I suppose that if that wretched old
man had been found dead In the mlserablo
attic he occupied In one of his ware
houses half the newspapers In that city
would have spoken of him as a "successful
man." Ho was not a successful man. He
was a very unsuccessful man. Ho was
successful In accumulating wealth some of
which ho had enrned and some of which ho
had extorted from people who could not
Bland up for whnt was due them. Hut ho
van not a successful man.
Now, I do not remember any man who
had been lesa "successful" than this poor
creature. Yet, when ho died, a year or two
afterward, It was found that be had
hoarded moro than (2,000,000. He was what
Is called a "miser." This la a Latin word
which means what we call "miserable."
It baa como to bo used to represent Juat
such people as he who llvo only to pile
up dollars.
Thla man had not eaten an orange, or an
applo or a atrawberry for twenty years.
Ho saw other people eat such things, but
ho would not cat them becauso ho wanted
to keep tho money which they would cost
him. Ho had mado his bed, when any
body made It, because ho wished to "save,"
as ho would havo said, the money which
ho would havo had to pay for having it
made, In such ways ho had "saved" his two
million dollars. Hut they were not enough
to glvo him a claim to bo called a suc
cessful man.
Money ns money Is simply vulgar. This
Is the bright phraso of one ot the moat
charming women of tho world. If I wero
a successful farmer I should not think of
piling 500 turnips In my drawing room. If
I were a successful engineer, still I should
not havo the pllo of macadam behind tho
chair In my dining room, if I were n sue-
reHsftil street contractor I would tint lmvn

For Juat the same rcaaona 1 should never

This Is to be observed, that success for n
man or u woman Ib to be measured by throe
standards, for each man and tho tame
thing may bo said of each woman Is a child
of Cod. He has tho use of two tools. Ono
tool Is named body and the other toot Is
named mind.
A man, then, has to succeed first In uslnn
his body for all It Is worth, In keeping it
in good order, In taking care that It docs
not rust nnd In Improving It. from tlmo to
time, aa he goes on. A boy or a man should
keep his body in order, Just as ono would
keep his bicycle In ordr. This means
dally exercise In the open air and means
entlro command of appetite, so that ono can
say "1 will" and "I will not." He ought

from Los Angeles to the Llpplnco'tt studio

there through the sumraor, returning home
In September. Dut fate had decreed other

men and with tho Women In the world, He
wants, therefore, to know how to think
carefully and how to express In words what
he thinks. And, going beyond mere rending
nnd writing, n man should so train hla mind
that ho can understand reasonably well

which is an enemy to crackers and biscuit. Now you see why
biscuit or crackers exposed to the air In a box or barrel go stale
and grow musty. To overcome this an inventor created the

prepared cardboard and paper so peculiarly folded and securely scaled
that it keeps out moisture and all kinds of badness. The In-cr-scal

DEADWOOD, S. D Sept. 1. (Speclnl.)
It has taken a dozen yearn for the cnpl
tallsta of thn cast to make up their minds
that 'tin might possibly exist In paying
.... . . .
quantlttca In the Black Hills. The liar
ney Bcnk Tin company, which was born
with an eye on the millions of London cap
italists, did tho work and It resulted In
temporarily covering up tho actual re
sources of this metal In tbo Black Hltla.
Tin Is in the greatest possible demand.
Thore Is a growing scarcity In these dis
tricts which have been furnishing tho
world's Biipply and there niUBt soon bo
found other sections of the country where
tho. metal may bo mined. As a consequence
tho tin ot tho Black Hills la again bob
bing up and this time there Is apparently
reason to expect that the development uf
tho tln-benrlng properties will bo carried
on In better shape than thoy were twelve
years ago.
Tho Gertie Mining and Milting company,
with a capitalization of 1,000.000 shares of
stock, par value $1, has been reorganized
by E. C. Johnson of Hill City and others.
They havo succeeded In getting straightened
out the title to 157 shares of patentod
ground at Hill City, which went Into one
of tho deals ten years ago and then fnllod.
But enough work was dono at that tlmo
to demonstrate that tho property has a
great ledge of tin ore, which nvoroges
3'4 per cent tin. This would bo equni to
something like IIS gold ore. Thla tin ledge
Is Ave feet thick and It has been sunk
upon over 400 feet, with levels every 100
feet. Paralleling this tin ledge t a five
foot ledge of free-milling ore, which runs
about 19 per ton gold. Tho company pro
poseB to erect a mill as soon as possible,
which will be this fall, for there la a great
demand tor tho stock.
Burned l"lnn tn Hp llrplaced.
The price of tin is climbing higher and
higher every year. It Is estimated that
there are 300,000 tons of tin oro blocked out
In this mine, which would pay a handsome
dividend us soon as treated. A cteam
hoisting plant stood at the ahaft until a
short tlmo ngo, when It was destroyed by
fire. It will be replaced. The officers of
thla company are aomo of tho atrongcHt
financiers In Chicago and Cleveland. E. C.
Johnson, secretary and general munngor.
has been nt Hill City several years working
up the deal. Ho Ib considered one of tho
best posted men on tin ores in tho coun
try. The company proposes to demonstrate
forever whether tin can be mined lu tno
Black Hllla profitably. Thocompany will
ulso mill the free-milling gold oro.
The Hidden Fortune company la feeling
good again over tho discovery of a two
foot lodge of free-milling ore that runs
better than S15 a ton gold. It was found
In the bottom of the shaft that Is being
sunk at the top ot the hill. Tho formation
In the Bhaft Is changing and lt Is oxpected
that it will soon all be In oro. This Is
one of Bcvernl ledges that run parallel
through this ground, being not more than
600 feet west of the HomeBtako mine. The
richness of the Btrlke Is n surprise to many,
but It Is holding out thi statements that
nro made by old Homeatnke miners that the
oro In the Homcatako mine grows richer
toward tho weBt side. The machinery for
thla shaft will soon arrive.
Kxiilnrntlon bc cu Mllra Awny,
Local business men of this city havo or
ganized the Edna Exploration company,
with a capitalization of 50,000 shares, par
value 11. It Is the intention ot tho com
pany to develop further th? old South
Dakota company's ground on the Garden
City districts, seven inlleB northwest of
thl city. Thero Is considerable cyanldlng
ore blocked out nt pretent. The company
will also tako other properties on long
time leases and develop them. S. Burns
of Garden City is tho originator' of the
company.

promising property adjoining the Uncle
Sam mine, on the south extension of tho
Homcstake belt A shaft Is being suiik on
a well defined ledge of free-milling ore and
the company Is expecting to open up a
mine of considerable worth, There la ample
water for a mill of 100 stamps and It !a
possible that tho company will Install a
small mill yet this fall to treat the ore
that comes from the development of the
property.
The Chicago company that was organized
to work tho Golden Slipper mlna four mllos
east ot Hill City has ordered a small stamp
mill, which will be Installed as noon as
possible. The mine Is developing Into one

Further development of tho ltlsmarek
mine at Keyname has been suspended until
the forty-stamp mill Is ready for ore. Tho
mine has two or three strong ledgen of
free-milling ore, which will keep a forty
stnmp mill In operation Indefinitely. It
Ib owned by the Elizabeth company of Mil

commlbslon its new 100-ton cyanide plant
