WEDNESDAY, APRIL 8, 1903.
The smartest do laughable things
sometimes. Here is Editor Clark of
the Hartford Courant, for Instance.
At the election In Hartford last Mon
day -machines were used .for, the first
time throughout the city, ' Editor
Clark appeared at the polls and de
manded that a paper ballot be furnish
ed him on the school question, and a
ballot box to deposit same in. He was
finally induced to go on his way after
entering a;protest.
It is now given out from an official
source that the extra" session oC con
gress will be called early Iii October.
It is given out as the ostensible reason
that this extra session Is to be called
for the purpose of disposing finally Of
the Cuban reciprocity treaty by ob
taining the concurrence of the house of
representatives; which the democrats
compelled the republican senators who
were working in the interest of the
sugar trust, to agree to before they
would vote to ratify the treaty. The
real reason why this extra session is to
be called was given out some time ago
when it was stated that J. Pierpont
Morgan nad called on the president
and informed him that Wall street
could not hold out longer than the fall
and that there must be' soma legisla
tion In Its interest, presumably the
Aldrich bill, w there would ; be a
smash-up and possibly a panic.
Large numbers of aittle boys are em
ployed: In the roaring, dirty coal
breakers picking the slate from the
coil and yet this labor could be large--ly'
dispensed with through the Intro
duction of the automatic slate-pickers,
should! -the coal operators see- fit, says
a writer in Leslie's .Monthly. ' A. few
of these slate-pickers are in successful
operation, so that It is not a hiatter of
experiment, There are many night
schools provided, by the school boards
In the. region, but they are slimly pat
ronized,' for a boy who has been whack
ing" mules 'all , day, or listening to' the
eullen roar of the endless , breaker; .Is
far too tired in body and mind to at
tempt study at night. - It is no pleas
ant sight to witness .these little chaps
on their way to ' work at five ' or - six
O'clock in the morning, some of them
having to walk several miles before
reaching the breaker, In , all sorts of
weather, ithere to continue for a full
ten ; fours' daily ; toil. According to
the report of the superintendent of the
Pennsylvania. v bureau of mines, for
1900, there were employed In and at
the anthracite coal mines, boy workers
as follows: Slate pickers, 20,698; drlv.
ers and runners, 10,177; doorboys and
helpers, 3,128-an aggregate of 84,003
afi this .Industry alone.
It has been stated on; more than one
occasion that the so-called "anti
trust' hills which the republicans per
mitted to become Jaws last winter will
in no way benefit the people or curb
the trusts. There Is nothing in the
party record and to the bills, except the
titles, that forebode evil to the trusts.
It will, therefore, surprise few men to
know that the real authors of the bills
are the trusts themselves the very
ones that tried to hoodwink the peo
ple by ending telegrams to the sena
tors ordering them not to pass these
"anti-trust" bills. .The New ; York
Journal of Commerce and Commercial
Bulletin of recent date . contains the
story of the authorship of the Elklns
anti-rebate bill. A dispatch to that
paper from Chicago saya that at a
meeting of western railway executive
officials to discuss the Elklns law, it
was stated that A. J. Cassatt, presi
dent of the Pennsylvania; Paul Mor-f
ton, second vice president of the Santa
Fe, and E. D. Kenna, first vice presi
dent and general counsel of the same
road, are authors of the bill. It is
stated that the first draft of the bill
was made by Mr Kenna and embodied
the ideas of the three men named. This
draft was submitted, to the president,
the attorney general and the chairman
of the interstate ; commerce commis
sion, and subsequently was amended.
As finally introduced, however, the
bill was essentially toe bill prepared
from the suggestions made by Messrs
Cassatt, Morton and Kenna, after re
peated conferences at the white house.
Mr Morton says of the law; "I believe
fthe act will secure the maintenance of
freight and passenger rates, and thi3
will be" of estimable; benefit to the
entire country, the railroads, the ship
pers and to consumers."
HEARD IN PASSING
There are plenty of Bridgeport young
men who ever keep Mr
Rockefeller's fearful physical
condition in view and do not
intend to ruin their stomachs by eating
too fast, even If their employers are i
great need. " What's the use of being a
taulti-millionliio if you can't ant n1a
and crullers or $10 worth of ham and
eggs?--Bridgeport Post.
The statement before the legislative
committee that only big savings banks
could afford to buy bonds at a 3.50
rate and then pay depositors 4 per cent,
recalls the fellow who tola his cus
tomer that he was selling below cost
and never could do it except that he
did that sort of business on such a
large scale. Hartford Courant.
It is a very good thing if President
Roosevelt has acknowledged limita
tions to his mental, and physical abili
ties. A disciple of, "strenuousness," he
has lived up to his creed in every par
ticular, but he now seems to have
awakened to the seriousness of the sit
uation, xoo much depends on the
president of the United States , to war
rant him in expending energy which
may overtax him. President Roose
velt should not depend on the " mercy"
of the committee. He should put his
foot down, fairly and squarely, and
absolutely refuse to "go the 4 limit."

SHAKING HANDS.
The pernicious microbe is omnipres
ent and persuasiye beyond belief, and
acts upon the minds of certain Imagi
native individuals with the force of a
continual nightmare.
Such persons are possessed with the
idea that hurtful germs are . lurking
everywhere and are only waiting for
the opportunity to pounce upon their
unsuspecting victim. To so absurd an
extent 1& this view of the matter car
ried, that in the most simple actions of
every-day. life deadly danger to health
Is seen. Kissing has long been inter
dicted by these advanced thinkers as
an especially , dangerous , custom, and
now it is declared that handshaking Is
the means! of spreading a long string
of maladies.
Handshaking has ever been looked
upon" as a very innocent and harmless
mode of demonstrating one's frlendli-
mess, politeness,; or respect. It comes,
therefore. s & shock to read that hand
shaking has been denounced In exceed
ingly strong term, and that the advice
haa been given to discontinue the prac
tice on the ground that disease Is there
by spread far and wide.; :
, Dr J. M. Hirscb.of Chicago gives his
opinions on the subject in Popular Me
chanics. He says, in part: "The most
delicate perfume upon the hands is-not
a sign of freedom from germs, and
the most refined are not free from dis
ease of lungs or throat and the germs
are rapidly spread by touching the hand
that , has handled! the handkerchief of
one aflaicted with a cold, catarrh or
jkonsumpitltn. ; These diseases ; claim
more than one-seventh of all the deaths.
Our street oars carry feigns requesting
passengers to abstain i from spitting
therein. These same passengers may
hodd: their hands before their moutbis
when they cough and cover it with
germs enough to infect a thousand peo
ple.. .They may use their handkerchief
with the same result, and when we
have an epidemic Of the grip, It Is
spread by the grip of the hand of a
friend or a casual acquaintance or a
mere stranger just lntroduced."Thei
writer ' then refers ! to eczema, , scarlet
fever and diphtheria, and declares that
these diseases are often spread by
means or tne hands. He also asserts
that all 'germ. diseases, may, be dissemi
nated in this manner. ;
The above has been quoted merely to
show, what extreme lengths faddists
will go In order to drive home their
theories, ai-to infectious diseases W.
ing spread by the hands, the event In
some instances may be possib'e. Hand-
snaKing win doubtless flourish as vig-J
orously as if there were no possible
fear of getting Into one's svrom r
obnoxious, germ during the process.

IS HELL BEING NEGLECTED?
' Bishop Huntington of central New
York feels that hell is being unduly
neglected by the clergy. In a mld
Lehten sermoii in Rri-non..,. -!ru
a he expressed his conviction that
mere was a place for hell, and that it
was there, and tha seat-indulgent per
sons whose habits and conduct were
not good would some day have a pain
ful personal experience of it. Hell has
at times been much ctverflrrne. 'Tt aa
been described as hotter and more con
tinuous than the human Imagination
can endure, and overmuch freedom has
been used in forecasting its population.
No hell that contains unbaptized in
fants or persons who died casually and
unintentionally unregenerate will wash
in these times. An eternity of hell as
a consequence of misconduct of limited
continuance also seems to. modern
minds ah Improbable dispensation.
But the idea that evil-doers who man
age to avoid punishment In this life
are going to get off altogether does not
commend itself to the average observ
er's sense of fitness. Almost everyone
believes iri God, and every Intelligent
believer lfi Gd must believe in eternal
Justice: ,'. Somewhere, - somehow, the
odds come even, and all crops are har
vested. , Without hell, or its equiva
lent, we average observers cannot see
how final justice is going to be done.
A good deal of the time the way of the
transgressor Is hard m this life but
some transgressors play their game so
ably a8 to elude all obvious penalties,
and. make a show of having a good
time as long as they live. The religious
mind is confident that there must be

AMOK IN THE PHILIPPINES.
How it is Done by the Mahometans
,, . in Sulu.
In Sulu and Mindanao amoks by Ma
hometan, fanatics among Moro tribes
men are very common. - These fellows
gavB the Spaniards formerly a good
deal of trouble. They are now giving
the American successors of the Span
iards an idea of what amok running
means. The Manila Times thus han-i,
dies some recent fanatical outbursts
of this kind 'in that quarter; From
time to time reports have come in from
the southern possessions stating that
some Moros have "run apok." While
many people will recognize the expres
sion, there are few who willkhow its,
real significance as pertaining to tht
Moros. In 1900 reports frequently
came from the Twenty-third infantry,
the Twenty-eighth and Fortieth volun
teer regiments of Moros "running
amok." Since' the1 departure of these
regiments for the states reports from
their successors." the Seventeenth In
fantry and Fifteenth cavalry, have f re-i
quently referred to the same class of
Moros. .An army officer, recently
from the Sulu archipelgo, gives the
following significance to the expres
sion: According to the Mahometan re
ligion, a subject, no matter how tired
he may be of life,' cannot reach' his
happy hunting ground should he com
mit suicide. These fanatics; have a
more graceful manner of forcing
death upon themselves than more civ
ilized people. For example: A Sulu
Moro, through falling hopelessly in
debt, being taken into slavery, after a
time sometimes become dependent
and decides to shuffle off the mortal
twist. Having reached this frame of
mind, he tells his troubles to the priest
of his datto or chieftain, who, if he be
lieves the subject is in earnest, refers
the case to the next higher authority
with his approval. Thus the case goes
on through "ofllclal channels" until it
reaches the member of the court of the
sultan who decides such matters.
Should this dignitary approve of the
supplication the subject is given a re
ligious ceremony and swears to "die
fighting." His eyebrows and parts of
his head are shaved clean, , and under
certain conditions he is given a white
turban. His sword or. other weapon,
which must have the keen edge of a
razor, is then examined, ahd if found
satisfactory he starts out on the pre
scribed mission of blood , letting. A
great factor in the happiness in the fu
ture world is his horse that he will re
ceive after death. Its size will be large
Or small, according to whether he slays
many or few, and its color light or
dark, depending upon the color of bis
victims. He, -' of course, desires ' ' a
large white ; horse. : Thus . it may be
seen that he is a dangerous -character,
partlculary 1 to Americans and Europe
ans, though Chinese, being of -lighter
skin than himself, often become his vic
tims. He prefers the lighter blood; but
does not hesitate to deal the death
blow to other human beings, even to
his fellow tribesmen, if this coveted
blood is noti to1: be . bad," figuring, no
doubt, that in. the world to , come he
will be better off with, a small dark
horse than - with no steed at all. Dur
ing the last year five Moros have run
amok in . Jolo, the chief town of Sulu.
Thanks to the alertness of the Ameri
can soldiers, but one person. has been
injured by these fiends, -and his recov
ery is assured. New York Tribune, "
IN SPITE OF ENVIRONMENT
You may be sure, that people who
are always complaining of , their en
vironment of the conditions whicfi
surround; them for the evident pur
pose of excusing their inaction, medi
ocre work, or failure are not recog
nized ; for success.; They lack some
thing, and that something,' as a rule,
is an inclination to do downright, per
sistent hard w6rk. They are better
at finding excuses for .. their.;; failure
than at anything else. ';; '
The man who expects to get on in
the world cannot do It with a faint
heart, but must grasp his opportunity
with vigor, and fling himself with all
his might into his vocation. ?fo yourig
man can flirt with the Goddess of Suc
cess and succeed. If he does not mean
business, he will quickly be jilted.
In this electrical age of ' sharp com
petition, no young man can hope to
get on who does not throw his Whole
soul - into what he is . doing. Great
achievement is won by doing, doing,
doing, and doing over again; by re
peating, repeating, repeating, and re
peating over again; by finding one's
bent and "Sticking to that line of work
early, and late, year in and year out,
persistently and determinedly.
There is no halfway about it. No
on can succeed by taking hold of his
occupation with his finger-tips. He
must grasp the situation with all the
vigor of his being, with all the energy
he can muster, and stick and hang and
dig and save; this is the cost of any
worthy achievement, and there is no
lower a price. There are' no bargains
on the sudcess-counter. There is but
one ' price take it or leave it. : You
simply waste your time if you banter.
What a j)itlable sight It is to see a
strong, vigorous, well-educated young
man, in this age of opportunity such,
as the world never saw before, sitting
around wasting his , precious years,
throwing away golden opportunities,
simply because he does not happen to
be placed just where he : thinks the
great chances are, or does not see an
opportunity which is, big enough - to
match his ambition or his ability! '
It is a cruel, wicked sight to see our
wealthy young men squandering the
heard-earned fortunes of their fathers
in vicious living, but what shall we nay
of a vigorous youth with giant ener
gies and good education,' who folds his
arms and refuses to seize the golden
opportunities all about him?
Bishop Spaulding, in a recent ad
dress,' said: "Success lies in never tir
ing of doing, in repeating, and never
ceasing to repeat; in toiling, in wait
ing, in bearing, and in observing; in
watching and experimenting, in fall
ing back on oneself by reflection, turn
ing the thought over and over, round
and about the mind and vision, acting
again and again upon it this is the
law of growth. The secret is to do, to
do now; not to look away at all. r
"That Is the great illusion and de
lusion that we look away to what life
will be to us in ten years or in twenty
years; we look to other surroundings.
The surrounding is nothing, the en
vironment is nothing; or in: other
words, it is not possible to work except
in the actual environment. If you do
not work where you are, where, will
vou work? If you do not work how,
when will you work? There is nothing
for us but here and now. (j. is. Mar

CASHIER TOOK $70,000.
After Forcing Big Bonus from Bank
Directors, Gives Up the. Balancer.
While "the board of directors of the
Mayence People's bank at Berlin -was
in session a few days ago the cashier
Herrmann, who had been with the
bank for twenty-seven years, entered
the room and them that he had
taken $70,000 c" the bank's funds. The
amazed directors, when they were
really convinced that this wag true and
that the old employe had not suddenly
gone mad, asked him why he had
robbed the bank, Herrmann replied:
"This Is. my revenge-for not having
been elected a director In 1900, as I
was promised. I had been preparing
for this stroke for three years." The
cashier added that he was willing to
go to the , penitentiary for life, as he
had "got even by inflicting life pangs
on the directors and stockholders" by
taking the money. ; - :
The bank s ofllcers begged him to.
restore the money and retain their, es-.
teem. Herrmann slowly . yielded, so
far as to -say that if they -would give
him $6,250 down and a life pension Of
$900 a year he would, return the. stolen
money. It was daylight when the di
rectors promised to give the cashier
$6,250 and a nenslon. Herrmann then
went to the outer office, brought i In
$70,000, counted out $63.70 , and put
$6,250 In his pocket. The 'directors
said this was not fair, that he "friuM re
turn all the money and -that1 then - he
would receive the $6,250 promtsed.hira;
Herrmann, however, refused, and the
bank has now brought legal 'proceed
ings to recover the $6,250. ' -' - v
BRUTALITY BRINGS ITS END."
Football Gets Severe Blow from One
of Harvard Faculty.
A member of the Harvard faculty,
who has been connected with the ath
letic committtee of the university, has
caused a great deal of discussion by
suggesting the advisability of " discon
tinuing the annual Harvard-Yale' foot
ball game.; The. reasons he gives are
that the contest has ' become too ex
citing both : to undergraduates and
graduates, that it upsets the serious
work Of the students and creates un
worthy antagonism between the uni
versities, and that football as It is
now played Is too dangerous' to life
and limb. Of course these statements
have been disputed and Mr. Hollis has
been Widely, denounced as a spoil
sport, but we think the general opinion
of the country is, that the time hag ar
rived for the university authorities to
take action on . this matter. The game
of football long ago leased to be a form
of healthful recreation. At present .it
is a source of unwholesome rivalry to
the students and a spectacle of unciv
ilized ferocity to the general public.
Merely as a spectacle it has lost nearly
all the features that . appeal to a
healthy love of sport. ' If the spectator
were unaware of the depth and intens
ity of the rivalry it is doubtful wheth
er he could see anything properly amus
ing in the pushing and slugging, that
carries 'the ball down the field. But
that Is beside the question. The chief
complaint we have to make against in
tercollegiate football relates to . its ef
fect beyond the walls of the university.
Rugby football will always be played
by small' lieges' and schools as it is
played, in the-great universities. Har
ard and t Yale practically dictate the
rules for the country. If they play
fiercely, , encourage crushing "forma
tions" and ; minimize the rewards of
agility and presence of mind, the small
fry will follow their example. Their
well-trained men may be tempororaily
disabled ' by a play which will kill a
half-grown youth. The rushing that
knocks the breath, out 'of , a .Harvard
center may knock the life out of a high
school boy. No one in the great uni
versities has been killed or crippled by
the brutal plays now practiced, but
year by year the list of fatalities
among the teams of the small colleges
and schools grows. As we have said
once before, the athletic committees of
the, universities .are , the stewards of
the game in this country, and it is
their duty either, to ' abolish the con
tests or to so modify the rules that the
sport will cease to be dangerous to the
lives of the players.! It is i time the
faculties took the decision out of the
hands of impulsive politicians of , ath
letics among the undergraduates and
the conservative statesmen among the
graduate coaches and gave this matter
the treatment which Its public import
ance demands. Finrey Peter Dunne In
Collier's April" Household Number. ;
WORK VERSUS INCOME
Those Englishmen who imagine and
assert that in the United States the dol
lar is almighty overlook the ; profound
respect amounting at times almost to
reverence, with which Americans re
gard men like Ralph Waldo Emerson,
who believe in plain living . and high
thinking. Emerson has many deciples
in public as wellas in private life, and
the position which they occupy in, the
esteem ana connuence oi xneir. reiiow-
cltizens is one unapproached by any of
our 'muiti-millionaries.x ; A"few-':-years
ago tire annual income of one-member
of the federal senate jvas reputed to
exceed $14,000,000 from one7 source
alone. So far as we know, that gentle,
man's voice has never 'bn"hMrdcbUt
twice in the senate chamber, -and were
he to speak oftener he would be listen
ed to with more surprise than respect.
On the other hand, there is no senJor
who deserves and commands so pch
attention when he rises' to discuss a
public question as does the Hon George
F Hoar of Massachusetts; indeed, we do
not hesitata to say that, since the death
of Daniel Webster, there . has.., ,-ne.Vfr
been a senator whose utterances bear so
well the searching test of type. Yet
this man. who for a quarter of a cent
ury has worthily represented the com
monwealth of Massachusetts in the up
per house' of the. federal legislature, has
never known what It is to Tossess so
modest an income even as $2,00") a year,
outside of his salary. .Up to a twelve
month ago. he had been iinable to rent
even a humble dwelling, but had lived
in boarding-houses. : 'some tolerable,
some intolerable, during the whole of
Ms useful and honorable career 1 in
Washinsrtn'n. Has the fact impaired
his social dignity 7 or his pol't.'cal
weight? We reply, 'hipt an lotn. That
is a truth well known to men who
have -lived In the federal capital, and
