preaslona of satisfaction were heard after
Ha close. It waa one of the most success
ful and Instructive lecture, ever offered at
the Toung Men's Christian association. Mr
Watties said. In part:
Before adding my answer to this question
to the thousands that have been givn lie
fare. I desire for a few moment, to dlarttsa
"ertaln elements essential to success In
business. In the order of their Importance
they .re as follows: ambition, good heaith,
good morals, courage and correct prin
ciples. ...
( place ambition first, for without the
deslrs to succeed, euccesa will never crown
the efforts of any man. With ambition
It marters not what the obstacles are, they
will he overcome, nor what further attain
ment, must be had, they will he acquired.
Without the desire to succeed, work be
comes Irksome, and the individual soon
decides not to pay the price of success, but
rather to live a Ufa of ease. -
The second element 1 have named Is of
vital Iniimrtance In the strenuous activity
of the present times. The successful busi
ness man must know no limit to hours
if continuous and ardent labor. To be able
to stand the. strain and euccesKfr.My com
pete with hla fellows, good Tieolth Is all
Important. -
Success cannot be obtained without the
respect and confidence of business men.
Corrnnt morals lead to Corrupt methods,
and these In turn to loss ot business stand
ing and credit. A young man often de
ceive, himself with the thought that other,
do not know of hla moral delinquencies;
tmt there Is one thing certain In this world,
and that Is that evil report travels with
lightning speed, while good acts and correct
living are taken a. a mutter of course.
The business man who leads a. eorrtint
f moral life may think he Is deceiving others,
but ha seldom does. Some year, ago a
merchant In Omaha applied to one ot the
bank, for an extension of a loan. He was
refused, and when he asked the reason
why, the banker told him of some of his
Immoral practices. The merchant seemod
surnrlsed and said there must be some mis
take, that these reports were not true. The
hanker answered that he might deceive
himself In hla denial, but that every other
business man In Omaha knew of hi. dl
graceful aots. ..
Honesty In Hasinas.
In the business world honesty Is the only
hnlicv that leads to nremanent success.
A prominent and very wealthy man recently
died at a hotel In New York City. He had
during hi lifetime accumulated a fortune
of many millions. Early In hi. career he
had served a term in prison. Later In life
he had divorced the wife who had stood by
him In his early trials. His name was con
nected with many scandals, and althourh
he had succeeded In making money, his Ufa
was a failure. He had failed to take Into
account one of the most important ele
menta of success In the business world.
There ara battles fouaht in business each
day which require courage a. great as that
displayed . by soldiers on a bloody field.
Mental courage Is necessary In a high de
gree to stand against the allurements of
sudden wealth; to refuse the requests of
friends, who . plead for business favors,
which would compromise you. It granted:
to stand out against popular sentiment
when all the world seem, to have taken
sudden fright; to fight on through long
periods of panic and depression and never
surrender, though the odds seem a thou
sand to one against you; such conflicts re
quire courage.
But courage to act and do the dutlc. of
the hour la equally Important. To recognise
the opportunity, to see clearly the correct
qnurse to pursue, require, knowledge of
business affair, which Is only acquit ed by
Industry and t application, but when your
Una or action is made clear, me courage
to act I. equally necessary.
Htanding on my desk I. the weird poem,
"Opportunity." by the late John J. Ingalla.
It haa often been an Inspiration which has
urged me on to action, a. I have realised
that opportunity wa. at hand.
Correct Principles Necessary.
The negt element I have named, neces
sary to success in the business world, 1.
correct principles. A man may have am
bition, good health, good moral, and cour
age and .till may fall for lack of ability
V to use correct business principles In hi.

trate what I mean better than to relat.
tha advice that wa. given me many year,
ago by an old man, who had been successful
in business, in reply to my question: "What
must a man do to make money?" He
gave the simple rule: "Buy when thing,
are cheap, and sell when they are dear."
1 took hi. advice at the time a. a Joke,
but a. I have grown older and seen the

Portello, who la temporarily In command
of tho regiment, stating that General Bald

few weeks. Although there have been
many previous rumors about changing sta

sidering that the Texans are so averse to

on every opportunity It seems queer that
the regiment would be ordered back where
It had so much trouble In 1900. it I. a fact
that at nearly every post In Texas where
colored troops have been stationed they had
continual trouble with the citizens, and It Is
believed that the condition, are worse
today. There are plenty of other troop,
that could be sent to Texas and which
