An Ohio boy, one morning last winter, was In

was only sKteen yenrs o'd, and rather small for
his age His coat llttcd him a llttlo too soon and
anxle-gieiiso was on It. Hadn't had time to slick

was cheerful. Answered the couits qurstlons as
if it were a pleasure Told all about tho folks at
home, nnd why he left home.
He and another boy craved
tho big life. They wanted to
bo In tho midst of something
and bo something. Only, tho
other boy had a llttlo hitch to
his ambitions. Ho wanted to
go to Chicago, whore ho had
an aunt who, in an emer

Tho court, some years back, having broken Into
town in substantially tho samo way, did not hoar
tho boy's story without feeling. During tho re
cital, tho Judicial mind had gono back to that
other day, now long gone, when ho, a penniless
lad, had said good-by to his nativo town. So he
said to tho boy:
"My son, let mo commend your judgment. Any
boy who will rldo tho trucks to New York, In
proferenco to going to Chicago and living with
his chum's aunt, has tho right spirit. I think this
town noeds boys llko you, and I am going to let
you stay. Discharged."
Nothing can illustrato bettor than this Incident
tho luro of New York. Perhaps no other city ever
had so largo a percentage of the world's popula
tion bluffed. A bigger word than "bluffed" Is
needed here, but It does not come. Tho point Is
that tho city has tho power to cast a great spell,
nnd casts it. Slio makes no comparisons. To
mako comparisons would bo to admit that thero
nro others In her class. Sho says only: "I am tho
wonderful city come."
Tho call goes north to tho edgo of tho frozon
world; east to tho point where tho enst 13 west;
south as far as a white man llvos, and west till
tho we3t Is east. Not overybody comes, but every
body hears. Millions would llko to coma, but
can't. Everybody would llko at least to Beo tho
siren city. And, untold thousands do como. Ono
railroad thinks nothing of dumping 100,000 stran
gers into Now York In a day.
Tho reason for so much coming Is plain. Ev
erybody likes to bo mixed up with a success. Tho
bigger tho success, tho better. Now York Is uni
versally regarded as a big success. It has tho
tallest buildings, tho richest men, tho whitest
"White Way" that over cut a streak through tho
night, and somo of tho most prodigal dlsburcers
of tho circulating medium that ever dazzled any
community.
In a variety of ways comes tho message to
mix with thin great success to becomo a part
of this wonderful bigness. Perhaps tho newspa
pers and the stago do tho most to spread tho luro.
Now York dato-llnes appear over tho most Impor
tant Items of nows. Thero Booms to bo only ono
placo In which anything worth whllo can happen.
Has Mr, Morgan bought an old master or formed
a now trust? Where did ho do It? Now York.
Has Mr. Rockefeller paid his annual visit to tho
ofllco of Standard Oil? Yes a Now York dispatch
nays so. Has -Mr, Carnegie slipped In tho ley
patk and sprained his anklo? What park Why,
Central Park, In Now York, of course. And, when
ever nn Italian opera singer, a Russian revolu
tionist, or nn Irish patriot comes to this country,
whore does ho land? At Now York. What city
eends out the nows? Now York.
As an advertiser of, tho glories and splendor of
this great town, tho stago Is second only to tho
press.
Twenty yearB ago, a Nevada youth went to see
a show In Carson City. Tho show was that old
01 I'"
I left my chum classic, "Tho Two Orphans." In tho cast wero
extremely few persons besides tho orphans them
selves, as railway transportation and board wero
both high; But tho show mado up in scenery what
It lacked In cast. Ono scene, in particular, ap
pealed to tho chuckle-faced youth. It was a scono
In which tho two orphans wero sitting on tho
steps of Trinity church. Tho snow was drifting
down over their thin shoulders. Broadway was
thronged with pedestrians. Horse-cars flew along
at eight mlleB nn hour. Nobody looked at tho or
phans. But tho orphans, silent as llttlo sphynxes,
looked Btralght ahead straight up tho street.
Thero was Broadwny! Tho inflnlto skill of tho
scene painter seemod to have carried tho street
clear to tho horizon. Nothing but buildings nnd
peoplo and people and buildings till they blended,
at the finish, into an indlstingulshnblo liai-e of
paint.
Tho Novada youth could hardly keep his seat.
Tho painted scono had flrod his mind with an
lntcnso desire. Ho nuiBt bo off to Now York.
All during tho show, which ho saw not, though ho
looked straight at tho stage, he kept IiIh eyes
riveted to tho splendid vista of Broadway. Tho
wholo thoroughfare seemed to him to be a trens-ure-houso
of opportunity. And, nt dusk, when tho
lights begin to blaze up along tho "Great Whlto
Way" ah, It Is all Just as ho had dreamed It to
bo! All grand! All surpassingly grcnt!
But, kind friends, he dines at no lobster palaco
that evening. Nor do his magnificent Jewels glis
ter In tho "horseshoe crescent" nt tho opera. With
tho money that he can spare for his evening meal,
he couldn't buy a lobster's tall, and a drygoods
box In an alloy would fit hlra better than a box at
tho opera. So, he dines poorly for sixty cents at a
side-street restaurant, gets a glassy eyo from tho
waltor for not giving a Up, flndB a room In which
thero U no light by day, nor pure air night or day
and goes to sleep to dream of homo and mother.
Tho next morning, he Is awakened by a mis
cellaneous assortment of nolsos, ranging from
elevated car wheels to horses' hoofs. As he putn
on tho shirt that mother laundered for him, his
heart takes a sudden lurch back to tho old roof.
Ho calls his heart back. Ho Is In Now York to
mako good. It Is up to him to do It. And, by tho
time ho Is roady to go out to hunt for breakfast,
his nerve Is all back.
With nothing to do but get a Job or starve, ho
looks for work. Ho hears that motormen aro
wanted on the subway. Half afraid to offer his
Borvlco3, ho nevertheless decides to do so. On tho
way to tho company's ofllces, ho considcra all of
tho situation's glorloiiB possibilities. Novor In
tho country did ho daro dream that Bomo day ho
might mako n battery of motorB blto off 2,000
horsepower of electricity and snatch eight loaded
cars through tho subterranean night.
Tho good nows goes homo to tho old folks that
their boy Is going to run a train In tho Now York
subway. Oh, If tho boy could only soo tho min
gled sorrow and prido that light up his mothor'a
oyes when sho readB tho letter. It breaks hor
heart to havo her boy away, but It mends It to
know how emphatically ho has mado good In tho
fW YOj?C WATS?
F?orr, y?ov u ?$&
i.'Jr r :
big town doing to run n
ttaln dilvon by electricity!
Going to inn a train boating
fifteen hundred human be
ings, each of whom has put
his life, for a time, in her
son's keeping! Such confi
dence as tho company must
have had In her boy to In
trust him with so grave a
responsibility. Oh, It ia such
a comfort to her to know
that her son, whom sho has
loved slnco sho felt his first
hentt-beat; for whom sho hno
tolled and suffotcd and de
nied herself It Is such a
comfort to her to know that
ho has been recognized at
what she knows to be hla
truo worth, by the most won
derful city In tho world.
A year later, uhat lojoiclng
thero was In the llttlo homo
when tho boy wroto that ho
was coming back on a vaca
tion. Mother could hardly
read tho letter, sho was so
excited Ran to tho fields to
tell father. Ran back to get
dinner. Could hnully cook
burned tho eggs to a crisp,
something sho had not dono
In thirty years, and had to fry somo more. In Btich
a hurry to put on her "other dress" and run over to
Mrs. Pratt's to tell her: "My boy is coming homo."
Tho boy camo home. When ho took mother In
his arms and held her for n full minuto, sho couldn't
speak. All choked up. So glad to seo him, sho
couldn't say a word. And, whon sho did Bpenk, tho
first thing sho said, as she looked up Into his brown
eyes, wns: "Oh, my boy, how palo you aro!"
Ho waB pale Ho know It. Subway air makes no
red blood-coipuscles. Kills aoino of tho icd ones
that exist. Nor docs tho electric light of tho Bub
v.ay brown the cheek as tho aunllght browns tho
cheek of tho fnrmer. All tho yonr that ho had
been nway, mother had carried In hor mind tho pic
tilro of her farmer boy. Never had dreamed that
her farmer boy would como homo with a grayish
white face;. Didn't need to Bay sho was Bhockod.
Looked It. Tho boy caught tho mcasago and laugh
ingly replied:
"Oh, mother, all city folks arn pale."
During tho week that ho remained at homo, tlio
boy was kept talking. Father and mother con
stantly asking questions. Seemed to mother m If
she couldn't nsk questions enough. Wanted to got
flrst-hnnd Infoimatlon about everything of which
sho had read
Six months after he returned to work, his mother
had nn opportunity to seo for herself, Just how big
was Now York. A telegram told her that her boy
had been hurt. Sho and father found him in a hos
pital, with his head bandaged until they could bare
ly see his eyes. At tho end of his run, he had
tried to cross tho tracks to catch another train bick
nnd get to dinner moro quickly. Didn't seo a train
running In tho opposlto direction. Car stmck him.
Picked up for dead. Seemed to havo a fractured
Bkiill. Fortunately, did not. Revived In tho hos
pital and would got well.
Oh, but tho mother's heart was glad whon she
heard tho best Instead of tho worst. Glad until sho
and father went to tho boy's room. Not his room
In tho hospital, but his room In a lodglng-houBO.
Glad until Bho caw how miserably ho had lived. K
dirty street. A dirty houso. A dirty hall. A cheer
less room. Llttlo light. Bad air. A skimpy bed. A
frayed counterpane. Not a decoration, savo her
own picture, stuck In tho edge of n mirror.
Her boy could afford no hotter placo to Hvo. HIb
pay wns only $2.25 a day. That Is, bin pay from
tho company was only $2.25 a day. Tho luro of
New York made up tho rest that was needed to In
duco him to stay.
Such Is llfo for millions in Now York. Not llfo
as tho newspaper dispatches descrlbo It. Not llfo
as tho stago pictures It. Llfo as It Is.
A few draw colossal prizes. A few moro draw
good prizes. But if only those should como to Now
York who ran enrn a better living hero thnn thoy
can elsewhere, a handcar, running onco a day, would
almost bring thorn In. Nlnoty-two per cent, of tho

thore ia tho most drinking lato at
night, especially after tho theater per
formances are over; and for that rea
son tho tompernnco reormera try
everywhere to pass laws closing tho
saloons by 11 o'clock at night. Still,
It la very common, In our cities, to aeo
drunken men staggering nround tho
Btrccta in tho morning, in tho midst
of a "spreo" that may last for dnys.
Modern men drink many tlery, dis
tilled liquors unknown to tho ancients.
Thoy havo added tho common uso of
many druga, such aa opium and co
cnlno, whobo physical and mental ef
fects aro moro terrlblo nnd swift oven
than thoso of alcohol. And still tho
saloon Is tho center of all othor sins
ngnlnst society licentiousness, mur
der, gambling, graft, political mlsrulo,
all aro closely connected with tho
saloon.
If our public schools aro to give tho
echolnrs a practical preparation for
life, certainly no subject la of greater
Importance than tomporanco. Laws
requiring scientific tomporanco In
struction havo therefore been passed
In all the states and by tho national
government, and more than forty torn
peranco physiologies, for nil grades,
havo been written. Noarly a million
ossnys on temperance themes are writ

Tho universities, colleges and normal
schools aro taking up the study.
It Is nevor enough to pass n tom
poranco measure, Tho open saloon at
onco bocomes a aecrot enloon, a "blind
tiger." "Near-beers" nnd othor drinks
nro concocted, containing Just enough
alcohol to oscapo tho law, and sold
openly. Saloons spring up on tho edgo
of tho prohibition territory. I'ntent
medicines with a largo per cent, of
alcohol are used aa drinks. Worst of
nil, tho United States lawn allow tho
express companies to carry liquor Into
prohibition territory, nnd thus far con
