Scotty also testified that he had tried to persuade the officers of the Death Valley Scotty Gold Mining and Developing company to locate a few mining claims in Death Valley, in or der to give the mining scheme the ap pearance of genuineness, but alleged that they refused to do so, saying it was unnecessary. - Scotty told the grand jury that bis "hole in the ground down in Death Val ley" is a myth, which has been used for years to fill the pockets of the pro moters. With the exception of P. C. Goodwin. the secretary of the company, and its treasurer, Goldworthy, the officers of the mining concern, have apparently dropped from sight, Scotty's confession contained this other bit of interesting history: He never located a mine, either in the Fanamint range, the Funeral mountains, or anywhere else; he never owned amine,, was not a miner, his only role was to make a big splurge, to advertise himself as the spectacular and unbridled spendthrift while all the time cunning schemers were formulating' plans upon which they should profit by this show. And all Scotty got, he says, was an amount of money that could not be lignified by a loftier title than a "hand out." Scotty said -the most he ever had at one time was 33,000, and that the rellow complexioned roll he carried was upholstered with one-dollar bills! MAJOR-GEN. LEONARD WOOD A word just at the present moment might not be out of place concerning Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood, U. S. A, who Is also, as everyone knows, an M. D. A writer has called him "One result of the Spanish war." Major General Wood is a New Hampshire man, and he was born In Winchester in that state Just 62 years ago. And he is also a Har vard man with his two degrees of M. D. and LL.D. He was an assistant sur geon stationed In Washington when Mr. Roosevelt was assistant secretary of the navy. They rode together and they were both crack shots, and the best of friends. It is said that the Rough Riders was the Inspiration of the then Dr. Wood, and that at the breaking out of the Spanish war such a regiment of men who knew how to ride and how to shoot plainsmen and cowboys was organized. And in it were mustered a number of New York clubmen of fashion, who were fond of outdoor sports. , The only son of the late Nicholas Fish, the late "Ham" Fish, who was killed in the charge at San Juan Hill, was in this regiment The story is historic. After the war Dr. Wood was made governor general of Cuba and became a brigadier general in 1901. i Two years later he was made major-general by President Roosevelt After that came his experience in the Philippines, then followed his appoint ment as commander of the department of the east, and then chief of the gen eral staff. - ! ' MR. CHUNG, CHINA'S MINISTER Greatly to the surprise of the diplo matic prophets, Dr. Wu Ting-Fang was not sent as minister from the Chinese republic to Washington, but Mr; Chung Mun Yew, the former Chinese cox swain of Yale, appeared as the first minister of the new republic No ex planation was forthcoming as to why the change had been made, and al though Dr. Wu and his charming wife are missed, yet Mr. Chung Is well known at the capital, and has many friends in the state department and among the diplomatic corps. He comes to this country with an estab-' lished record at Yale, for he was a member of the winning boat crew that fluttered the magic blue pennant It id also said that he was never far behind upon that popular American game that has something to do with holding a "full hand" for poker is one of the classics at Yale. He absorbed Amer ican ideas at college and was very popular among his classmates. He Is . a delightful conversationalist and speaks with very little, if any, accent " In 1908 Mr. Chung officially visited the United States as special ambassador from China to thank this country for the return of the Boxer indemnity fund. With the same keen interest In American affairs that characterized the pop ular Dr. Wu, the new Minister Chung is already a favorite. He tells the story of his country's transition from empire to republic in fragmentary con versation that thrills with the interest of a real romance. Mr. Chung feels that the great future of his country is now dawning, and he declares that it all began with a few Chinese boys who found their way to American schools and began to dream of an Oriental republic. 1 I TIN J l -y A V jJ J U RENE BAZIN SUBMITS A RECIPE Rene Bazin never cared for the su perman nor even for the overcivilized type of man. He never used the word eugenics. Science and matter are to him negligible factors when they are not supplemented by culture and the spirit In these days, when every one Is greatly concerned with anthropocul ture, Bazin had to come forth with his little recipe for breeding good human specimens. "The man whom tomorrow' will de mand," he said in a recent address, "is the thorough and fearless man, the man who will do his work well and for whom life will have no terrors. The training of this man will require the same methods as the training of a Christian, for if there ever is a super man he will be a Christian. If there Is a nobility whose ranks are open to all It Is the nobility of Christianity, which assures perfect equality to every soul in every field of endeavor A mind is very incomplete, a heart is very Whoever fails to feel and under any circumstances. weak, if they are swayed by human impulses only. the religious urga misses one-half of life and one-half of love besides misunder standing one-halt of history." Thrift is the difference between the House of Have and the House of Want. It is the difference between spndiiig all that you earn and earning a bit more than you spend. If is the difference between a little self-denial now that you may have ease in the future, and indulging now at the expense of privation in future. Thrift is a habit as easily cultivated as the habit of ex travagance. Thrift does not mean simply saving money; it means making money earn something for you.
