After an absence of nearly a yt-ar on a tour around the world, he arrived In New York harbor on the steamer Mauretanla. On the same vessel came James A. Patten, the Chicago speculator, who was ao roughly handled recently on the Manchester exchange.

The nearest approach most of us make to that virtue Is to gt-t our banks to let us overdraw our accounts. The fathers have eaten grapes and the children are eattng grapefruit. W used to buy apples by the barrel; now we buv them as we would buy jewels, each in Its separata wrapper. We used to eat pot roasts; now we must have porterhouse steaks. Our wives used to help the gen eral housework girl with the cooking; now we need two maids, a laundress, and a man to wash windows. When we were boys we did chores and wore our father's old clothes; nowadays the American boy needs an allowance, stockings that match his neckties, and a tuxedo Jacket. We used to think H an extravagance to keep a hundred-and-flfty-dollar horse and a hundred-dollar buggy; now we buy an auto mobllo and mortgage our house to pay for It. 'Easy come, easy go," was the old motto; "Easy come, gone before It comes," Is the modern. One chief cause of high prices Is trust our creditor's trust. Everybody wants to sell us something and charge It to our ac count. So we accumulate them and acquire a habit of reckless expenditure. What dif ference does It make whether eggs are cents of SO cents a dosen, If we do not have to pay cash for themT We are spend thrifts In the midst of a credlt-stystem orgy. When we sober up, prices will come down. The World Today. A I nan Man Dies on Train. CRESTON, la., March IS.-(Speclal Tele gram.)

Many women clamored for babies In vain, and so numerous are the applications that the Institution has de cided to send another carload of Infants to New Orleans. DISCOUNT RATE IS ADVANCED Directors of Bank of England Raise Minimum from Three to Four Per Cent. LONDON, March 17. The directors of the Bank of England at their weekly meeting today raised the minimum rate of dis count from t to 4 per cent. This action was caused by the continued foreign demands for gold, which seriously depleted- the the bank's reserves. There are now nearly 125,000,000 lower than at the same time last year and further withdrawals of the metal necessitated measures to increase the bank's holding. For some time India has been drawing heavily on the vallable supplies of gold and considerable sums are still wanted to move the large crops. In addition to this demand there la a large number of foreign Issues, Including a big delivery of American bonds in exchange for British gold, to be provided for. Forthcoming Internal mone tary requirements also demand the build ing up of the reserve. It is quite usual for the bank rate to be advanced at this time of the year. No doubt one of the ohlef causes therefor Is the government's failure to collect taxea This made money so plentiful that It weakened continental exchange on London and made It easier for foreign market to take gold from this center.

WASHINGTON, March 18.-The conteBt Involving the question of validity of title of the Cunningham coal claims In Alaska, the basic cause of the Balllnger-Plnchot Investigation, was transferred to Washing ton yesterday, when examination of wit nesses In this city was begun before United States Commissioner W. J. MoGee. Horace T. Jones, a special agent of the general land office, occupied the stand dur ing the entire day, his testimony relating primarily to the evidence he and L. E. Glavls collected from the Cunningham entrymen. An echo of the Balllnger Plnchot Investigation was Injected Into the proceedings by an Inquiry from E. C. Hughes, chief counsel for the claimants, referring to the sensational statement made by Mr. Jones before the congressional com mittee that James M. Sherman, In charge of the government caHes, practically had thrown the case, away by giving counsel for the claimants an opportunity to examine all the evidence collected by the agents of the land office. Mr. Hughes asked the witness If he did not know that counsel for the claimants had copies of nearly all of the affidavits rendered the government agents by the entrymen. The witness denied that he had any such knowledge. He admitted that he told Fred H. Mason, one of the claimants whose affidavit he procured, that Mr. Halllnger, then com missioner of the general office, was dis posed to work for remedial legislation to permit the acquisition of larger areas of Alaskan coal lands than was then per missible. The witness frequently clashed with the attorneys for the entrymen, who charged that Mr. Jones was injecting conclusions and arguments Into his teKtlmony. As the hearing progressed and the encounters con tinued with Increased Intensity of feeling, Mr. Hughes asked the commissioner If the witness could not bo held In contempt In view of the dlsrexpect he had exhibited to the authority under which the Inquiry was being prosecuted. The commissioner re plied that he regretted that he had no suoh power. Conrt Hons Donds t'nrrv. SIDNEY. Neb., March IS.

He said he wished he could take several of the pictures home with him. He spent some moments In conversa tion with Ambassador and Mrs. Hill, and also took occasion to thank Hugo Relsln ger of New York for bis work In arranging the exhibition.

OLD HAND AT THE HELM New General Mannsjev of the West ern I'nlon. with Ilia Record of Fortr Years, Belvidere Brooks, the new general man agor of the Western Union, who takes up the more active duties of Colonel Clowry, president of the telegraph company, was born July I, ISM. In Wheelock, Tex. His father, a practicing physician, who had en listed In the Secsnd Texas regiment as captain at the outbreak of the civil war, waa killed in the battle of Shlloh. Bel vedere Brooks was then 8 years old, and almost from his early boyhood he had no play like other lads he knew, but was obliged to work. Sitting In his office at No. 1S9 Broadway, Mr. Brooks seems to recall the events of his youth with difficulty. He Is a man of large proportions, and his decidedly eagle like glance seems to be fixed rather upon the things of the present than upon the remote pat- His replies were Invariably concise. Most of them would barely fill any ordinary telegiaph blank. "My life has) been a most uneventful one," he said "and the story of It can hardily be Interesting.

From there I went to work as a meesenger boy for the Western Union in Navasota, Tex. There are apparently few lnoldents of his boyhood that Mr. Brooks could recall as worth mentioning. "I never played ball," he said, "and I never went fishing, hunting and boating as other boys do. I don't mean to say I never fished, but it was a rare occasion with me. When I wasn't running messages I studied the code and soon learned to send and receive mes sages." When asked if he had had other ambi tions besides those Identified with his pres ent occupation, Mr. Brooks reflected a mo ment, but failed to remember any. "My Interest was always in telegraphy, It came to me quite naturally," he explained. "I became an operator April 1, 1S71, three months before I waa 12 years old. The duties of an operator in those days In cluded cleaning batteries, climbing poles and mending wires. I can remember hav ing to leave the switchboard, harness a pony and ride, with a coll of wire, along the old government line, which extended about fifteen miles out. After mending a wire I would have to ride back at a break neck pace and tend switchboard. Of coursa while I was away there waa no telegraph ing done." Mr. Brooks' narrative was given In a most deliberate manner as if he were try ing to summon up occurrences long erasnd from his memory. Concerning his success he spoke as little as possible. "I've always worked, and It was natural for me to move up as I went along." he said on this score. "Openings came and I was told to fill them, very likely because there was no one else. "It has been a kind of digging process for me all my life; I've had to work for everything," ha added In a barely audible tone. "There Is one thing that I'm proud of," announced Mr. Brooks, this time not wait ing for further questioning. "I married one of the finest girls In the country." The memory of the achievement brought a smile and a flush to his face. "She was a Miss Gerald, and," he went on. "I have four sons I'm quite proud of, too." New York Tribune.
