\ pitif;il Death.
Salt Lake Tribune.
The wires bring the news Of the
death Of James G. Fair, jr. Memory
passes over an interim OF eighteen
years and pictures him as he was
a lad of eleven. He was handsome
as young Apollo and bright be-
yond bis years.
Among all his playmates in some
respects he was the most brilliant.
| When it came to defamation day
not one could approach him IN ex-
cellence. He had not then begun
to realize that if he lived he was to
be a many times millionaire; he
was dreaming then of carving out
a career for himself, and had he
then been left parent]ess and for
tuneless the hopes that then warmed
his heart nj, hit have been realized
Three years later he knew how
sovereign was his fathers wealth
lust then too, a horde Of svcho
phants and would-be hangers-ol
magnifed to the boy the advan
tages which vast wealth carries
with it, and the boy grew up with
out ever learning how sweet are The
rewards of honest achievement
So he drifted on and pleasure be
came stale to him while yet he was
a boy.
There are no lessons in his lii,
or death except that after an IN
dependence has been obtained
man is just as rich as he can eve
be, no matter how many million
after that he may pile up, and tha
no wealth can drive away the un
rest which comes of id]eness O
make up for the mistake of CROWN
up without a high purpose and wit
' brain unskilled in any honest work
