NEW YORK, October 30.-The court of ap-
peals decided in favor of the contestants of
Samuel J. Tilden's Will, thus defeating his
purpose to establish free library which the
great statesman desired to give this city upon
his death, and which was the pet project of
his decling years.
In the meantime the executors have effected
a compromise with one of the benehclaries.
By the terms of which 50, 100000 will in any
event be set aside for library. Although
this Is not half the amount which Mr.. TIlden
willed should be devoted to the purpose, it il
still sufficient so place the institution upon
substantial footing.

DoN'T sitdown if you have had bad
luck, and howl that every one in the
world is down on you The people
whom you call your enemies are prob
ably too much interested in their own
troubles and worries to think much
of you. If you have trouble, you are
responsible for it yourself. Men as a
rule waste too much time in blaming
their misfortunes on others, and not
enough in blaming themselves.

THE horrible murders that recently
occurred at West Bay City and Port
Huron recall attention to the fact
that Michigan offers no seVerer pen
atty for willful murder than for some
crimes which do not involve the tax

ishment it is possible for Michigan to
inflict on murderers is to lodge them
in State prison and furnish them with
quarters, from which TO begin at
once petitioning for pardon

GUTHRIE, o. T., October 29.-Prairie fires
are raging all over the territory. So far as

hay and grain are concerned is immense.

reports that the whole population of that
town turned out and fought the fire for

From the high ground of this city fire can
be seen IN every direction, but there Ia no

places fire guards have been placed around
all the buildings.

inside Of you that makes everything
go wrong on the outside. We don't
know if it is in your head or heart,
but when it is wrong you become
blue, cross, wretched, disagreeable,

friends, and your business to prosper,
watch it as closely as you watch
