Russell Sage has retired from active

The man who carries his salary right

.It is reported that the Empress Dow

her Ideas. She must have become
convinced that there is a good , deal of
money on "the liberal side.
When a man reckons up how much
It costs him to live he figures on how
much is left for clothes ; when a
woman has figured up what her
clothes cost she estimates what Is left
to Jive on.
In prosperous times like this It is
foolish for men to spend all that they
make , and to spend more than one
makes and go Into debt is reckless.
This is the harvest time and every
man who makes a living salary should
Jmt aside a part of his earnings for

"Mr. and Mrs. Reginald Vanderbilt
assumed the names of "Mr. and Mrs.

that they might be able to go about

all right , but they might have observed
the fitness of things a little better by
registering as "Mr. and Mrs. Rocks. "
1 Although there Is a large number of
strikes on hand It is an interesting
-fact that there is a long list of cases
where the demands of the men have

pending between them and the em

Heretofore only the chairman of com

Reginald C. Vamlerbilt's descrip
tion of his "occupation" in a recent
official document as "gentleman" is not
a happy one. Being a gentleman is
not an occupation. It is the uncon
scious but pleasing result of good
breeding , education and deportment
and an always scrupulous regard for
the rights of others. If Mr. Yander-
bllt's designation of his occupation as
"gentleman" means that he Intends to
content himself with living upon the
millions to which he was born It would
be a regrettable fact , for the wealth
he has If added to an active pursuit
could do much , and for him to con
tinue Inactive would be a departmv
from the policy upon which the for
tunes of his house were built. Merely
being a "gentleman" is not sufficient
In these days. To play or to labor is
not the personal license of the individ
ual. Man's rights'come from the per
formance of man's duty exclusively
and to labor in some field of endeavor
is a national as well as a moral duty.
Germany has a Roland for our
Oliver. In the Berlin Tageblatt Count
Von Reventlow answers Dewey's char
acterization of the German navy , in
Jdnd. Germany's first squadron , says
the Count , is homogeneous and "could
smash Dewej-'s heterogeneous assem
blage , which has not a single rnoder.ii
armored cruiser. " So ? The Count
says the recent American maneuvers
were "generally childish" and as they
"always resulted in defeat of the hos
tile fleets , gained great newspaper
glory. "Newspaper glory" is good.
Count Reventlow refers to "the poor
marksmanship of the West Indian
fleet" and to "the low morale of the
navy which is indicated by the numer
ous desertions , " aud says "the United
States will some day have a fine fleet ,
but she has not one as yet. " The
Count is exceedingly kind. It might
be well to say to the Count that his
navy really ought to go and get a
reputation. On the other hand , the
navy at which he sneers has traditions
of unvaried success. Its John Paul
Jones and Lawrences and Perrys and
Farragtits were worthy predecessors
of its Schleys and Deweys. Hetero
geneous it may be , and low in morale ;
but it has never been whipped !
"To the Editor I'm 41 years old.
have worked like a yellow dog foi
twenty-two years ; have helped severa
men to get rich , and find myself with
a family , living in a rented house

Why don't some of these men who
hold jobs that have no futures try
farming ? The farms are not cro'wded
There is a market for the things that
farmers grow. There is still unlimited
wealth in the soil and millions of acres
of productive land to be had almost
for the asking. True , the life means
work and long hours and achy backs
and blistered hands. It means an end
to theater-going and trolley parties ,
aud a lot of expensive glmcracks that
cost money and don't amount to much.
The willing man can do well on a
farm. - Six years ago Robert Brown
jumped out of crowded Massachusetts ,
with his family , his pluck and a little
money , and bought eighty acres ol
land a mile from the village of
common , Mich. He selected that place
just as you might select a farm in
Kansas or in the far Northwest , be
cause it looked good to him. lie work
ed hard. lie put In more hours per
day than you ever have in an office ,
and his nose was close to the grind
stone for many months. He kept on
working. To-day every foot of his
farm Is productive. He owns seventy
head of cattle , and they are as good
as a bank account. He has lived well.
He figures that he has cleared $1,000
a year , and he owes no man a dollar.
He is healthy , happy and independ
ent , and his story Is given publicity by
the Roscommon News as showing
what one man has done , and what
other men can do. "I couldn't live in
a small place , " says one man. Then
don't complain of your lot. The city
lives on the life-blood of humanity.
It grinds and oppresses and stifles ,
and sometimes demoralizes. Some
day , if we mistake not , the flood tide
of this draining the farms to populate
cities will have been reached , and then
will come an era of saner living. To
day the independent man is not the
millionaire , not the manufacturer , not
the individual who is working for a
weekly stipend , but the man on the
farm , who grows the things that the
world must have in order to live. If
lie owns his land and has wealth , no
yoke can rest long on his shoulders.

young men rapped at the door. The
little woman opened it and the men
informed her that they wished to use
the 'phone. She told them how much
It would cost and invited them In. One
of them walked into the little office
and informed her that he intended to
use the telephone , but did not intend
to pay.
The plucky little operator said not a
word , but walked to the desk , and
while seeming to busy herself in get

duced a mischievous looking revolver.

thousand dollars The warrant
makes the specific charge of embezzle
ment of $8,009 , whicn represents
only a portion of the alleges percuia-
tions. Walson was neb londed and
in case he or his relatives , several
ot whom are said to be wealthy ,
fail to make good the alleged losses ,
Auditor J. T. Petty will be held re
sponsible for the amount. The
auditor's bond is for $20,000.
The money , . .11ged to have been emj
bezzled was part of the luuds ue-
posited in the office of the auditor
by property owners who are willing
to pay half or all costs of improve
ments abutting on their property ,
such as paving , sidewalks , alleys
and streets , This embraces deposits
by railway companies , electric light
cjmpanies telephone companies , 1'or
crossing side walks , for sewers and
water mains and is entirely separate
fi-um the other accounts. This
account is not subject to review by
the treasury department , but it is
checked by tbe clerk in charge of the
corresponding account in the district
department , and he reported it cor
rect as late as February 1902.

the right to recover fiom the dis
trict through suit. The auditor's

The settlers are greatly angered
against Dcwey and nis sun and claim
to l-ave indisputable evidence of
their guilt. Even should evidence be
introduced excusing their crime
whetuer guilty or not , the settlers in
their present inflamed state of mind
are seemingly determined to wreak
\engeance on them anyway as the
majority or the settlers recognize in
the present case an opportunity to

Ships in Collision
Marseilles , June 8.--A terrible
shipping disaster occurred a little
d stiinca from this port at noun Sun
day , when two passenger steamers ,
the insulaneand the Liban , both be
longing to tbe Fraissenet Steamship
company uf Marseilles , came into col-
iison. The Liban sank and over one
hundred of her passengers and crew
perished.
The steamer Liban left Marseilles
yesterday morning on her regular
passenger trip to Bnstia , Corsica ,
and was run down and sunk by the
Insulaire oil the Mai re islands. The.
collisfon was 'witnessed from the-
pilot boat Blechamp , which was about
two miles distant. The Blechamp
immediately repaired to the spot to
render assistance. The force of the
collision had cut a greafc hole in the
Liban's side , and she was already
making water rapidly. Her captain
saw the only chance was to run the
steamer around and the Liban was
headed full speed for the shore , bufc ;
within seventeen minutes of tbe ,
collision aud while still in deep1'
water , the forepart of the steamer
plunged beneath the sea and a few
minutes later she had entirely dis
appeared. Tl

Washington , June 8. The hand
some new home of the Grace Memor

cated yesterday with appropriate .ey-

family , attended and made a brief
address. He was introduced Jby !

follows :
"I shall ask your attrnt on to
three lines of the dedication canticle - '
cle 'Serve the L' rd with gladness : *
enter into His gates with thanks !
giving , and into His courts with
praise. Who shall ascend into the
hill of the Lord ? Or who shall
stand in His holy olace ? He that.
hith ; clean hands and a pure heart-
who hath not lifted up his soul uuto
vanity nor sworn deceitfully. "
"The Better lines could surely
not be brought into any dedication
services of the church ; and it is a
happy thing that we sbould have
r peated them this morning. This
church is consecrated to the service
of tbe Lord ; and we can serve Him
by the way in which we serve our
fellowmeu. This church is consecrat
ed to service and duly. It was writ-
en of .old by their fruits ye hall
know them , and we can show the
sincerity of ourdevotionby the fruits
we bring forth. This man who is
not a tender and ronsiderate hus
band , a loving and wise father , is not
serving the Lord when he g es to
church : so with the women ; so with
all who come here. Our being in
his church , our ccmmunion here
with one another , our sitting under
the pastor and hearing from him the
word of God. must if we are sincere ,
show the effects in our lives outside.
