One young American Is making a fortune
lieru in selling lino confectioneries, soda

opened with a small shop, but ho has now
ono of tho biggest places 011 tho ICscolta

Another successful establishment Is called
iho American Hazar. It sells all kinds of
Aincilran goods, ond I neo that Its adver
tisement In today's newspaper states that
it has ten tons of gents' furnishing goods
Just In from 'Frisco. Among the ItoniM

Tlin chief bmlucss that tho ex-faoldlcr

The dentists ore all busy and they all toll 1

mado $700 "silver" last woek and who
claims that bo has mado as high as $3,000

bolh tho Filipinos and Amorlcans. Somo
of them occasionally tnnko trips over the
country, going from nrmy post to army post
to attend to tho tooth of tho soldlors.
There aro sovoral American Importing
nnd exporting firms here, but nono so far
Is doing n very largo buslnoss. Tho most
of tho Importers denl largoly In Manors, ad

of Amerlcnn whiskies.
I would say, howevor, that thoro Is no

FRANK O. CARPENTER.
Right Kind of a Boy
Herbert Uotsford of Orand Rapids, Mich.
Is a boy of whom his country may well
bo proud. While delivering papers at 5:30
o'clock on Monday morning, rolates the
Chicago Inter Ocean, ho passed by tho city
waterworks reservoir nnd saw a llttlo cata
ract descending from It Into Livingston
street. Relow tho hill on which iho reservoir
stood was a thickly built district of work
logmen's cottages. Young Hotsford's quick
tllu Ifiolnfillv t-rnanml (tin nltnntlnn anil nn
i i.i.tic'Pu a'plmi in'w
(lorstooil tho danger to thosu sleeping hun
dreds. Throwing nway his papers, ho ran
through tho silent streets, shouting tho
alarm and hammering at tho doors.
Tho warning camo nono too soon, for
hardly had Ilotsford and those who Joined
him notified tho last house In tho district
directly threatened when tho reservoir
broke and 100,000,000 gallons of water poured
down tho hill In a stream ten feet deep.
Dwellings Inhabited by 9,000 pcoplo were
more or less flooded and the houses In a
strip three blocks wldo wero smashed or
tilled with sand and debris. Thanks to
young UotBford's Intelligence and devotion,
no lives were lost and only ono person was
seriously hurt. There wero many narrow
escapes, somo pcoplo having had to llco In
their night garments and the private prop
erty loss may reach $1:00,000. Hut a rand
Haplds Is thankful to havo escaped tho
great Iobb of llfo that would certainly havo
occurred had not young Iiotsford passed
that way, Been his duty straight before
him and performed It with promptness and
manly resolution.
Orand Haplds and ovory othor city, tho
Htato and tho nation, need boys and men
who have eyes to see, minds to reason
promptly nnd courage to act In the most
elllelent way. Young Ilotsford did not
think of saving himself, nor wnsto time In
telling tho authorities who should have
prevented the danger that It was at hand
Ho saw tho thing to do was to waken thos'
sleeping people at onco and that ho did
completing the task barely In tlmo to drag
his own breathless body out of tho on
coming flood.
Herbert Ilotsford Is n hero whom Ornnd
Rapids should not fall properly to roward
lie should have the best education ns a
start In life, for If ho lives nnd koops up
Ills boyish record he will booomo a man of
ft bom his country will hear nnd have
need. He Is tho kind of boy of whom
neither this nor any othor nation enn have
too many.
