A young Mans Chanoea

A mother. who now sends out son
into the business world launches him
at timeewhen the chances are all in
favor of young man, writes Edward
w. Box. Business men were never
more willing to place large trusts upon
the shoulders of young men than they
are to-day. young blood" as it is
called, is the life of the
modern business world, and is
everywhere sought. In New York
the demand for the right kind Of
young men in all capacities is far
greater than the supply, and what is
true of New York is true of all large
cities. Bear in mind however, say
the right kind of young men, and by
that classification mean young men
who are willing to work, and work
hard. The day of the young man who
works by the clock, eagerly watching
for the hour when the Office shall close,
has gone by, even II it ever existed.
Hundreds Of young men arr energetic
In new position until its novelty
wears off and then become mere ma
chimes whose places can be filed ut a
days notice.
No mother need have undue anxiety
for the success Of son who this
autumn or winter steps out into the
business world, so long as he bears in
mind few essential points.
He must be honest above all things,
and allow nothing to convince him
that there is compromise between
honesty and dishonesty.
He must be an out and out believer
in the homely but forcible saying that
a man cannot drink whisky and be in
business.
He must, too, decide between being
society man or business man; he
cannot be both.
He must make his life outside the
Office the same as in it, and not be pos
sessed with the prevalent idea that his
employer has no business to question
his movements outside of Office hours.
An employer has every right to expect
his employees to be respectable at all
times in Office or out of it.

Nine. Munkascy asked few friends
to view it before the formal exhibition.
Upon the appointed day they arrived
and were shown into darkened room.
There was group about the dying
composer, whose thin, transparent
hand seemed to mark the measure for
those who sang the accompaniment of
the harpsichord. Solemnly the words
rang out: "Give unto them, o, Lord,
eternal rest" Clasping one anothers
hands with tears streaming, tremu-
lousy they joined in the sacred music,
when suddenly Nine. Munkascy, think
ing the illusion had been carried far
enough, emerged from behind the can
vas accompanied by two musicians, one
of whom had performed upon the very
harpischord represented in the picture,
the painters most valued property"

Another bridge Across the Hissassippi-
oDsparturs Of the street Dsggsrs--

oDsparturs Of the street DsGGars--
More Electric Roads
ST.. LOUIS, Oct eO.-For years the
people Of North St Louis have had to
tide four or Eve miles before they could
ret to the Eads bridge, near the center
II the city, and cross to the Illinois
Towns, East st. Louis and Madison,
where many of them were engaged In
business. Lately they got engineers
and had estimates made of the cost OF
vehicle bridge in their part of town.
The engineers reported that one
souldn't be built for less than two or
shree millions. The Merchants bridge
which spans the river between North
St. Louis and the other side, Is only q
railway bridge. The men who wanted
another bridge went to the. directors of
The Merchants company, and asked
what terms they could have highway
built along the railway, quite an en-
cheering feat by the way. they
were told the company would do it for
$3.50, 900.
"we'n accept" said the North st.
Louis men.
The building of this new bridge, for
Il is one, practically, will result in an
enormous increase in the business on
both sides Of the river.
Thousands of people who came to
St. Louis during the last few weeks.
when the city was crowded, gave a
nickel or dime to the beggars thoy
saw on the street corners. There were
all sorts of beggars, blind, MANNED and
musical, and all Of them reaped har-
vest, but what must the visitors have
thought of st. Louis?
81 never saw but one other place
where there were so many bcggars,
said a lady, standing with her escort
near the postoffice one night, "and that
was in Rome. I should think that st.
Louis would keep them in asylums."
To-day, one couldn't find one of those
blind organ-grinders If he walked from
one end of the city to the other. They
don't belong in st. Louis. They don't
belong anywhere. Next week they
will be in Chicago or New York. They
follow the crowds all around the coun-
try. 1t is a regular profession with
them, and they make good incomes
begging. Policemen can do nothing
but drive them away from their beats,
and they then appear Mt another cor
ner in five minutes, and go on grinding.
Another electric railway, which
looks on the map like an octopus, is
projected in the city, and the men who
are trying to get thefranchise promise
to have it built by the time the throng
fill the streets next fall, and clamor
for fast transportation over every
block they have to go. Every car line
in the city except one short piece out
West, will be run by electricity next
year, and it seems that they cover the
ground pretty well, but these hardy
projectors are willing to give a heavy
bond to get the road finished by Oc-
tober if the assembly will allow them
to begin spending the Ss,ooo,ooo it
will cost.

puy de LONE. She not only possesses
In rare measure the beauty of her
countrywomen, but with husband
whose social and literary qualifications
are so notable her home is likely to
prove the center of very brilliant
circle this winter. Senior de LONE is a
man of profound sympathy with oil
charitable enterprises and while at
Montevideo founded the Spanish
hospital, raising in single year
$50, 900 in its behalf. His wife is dis
tinguished for charitable impulses,
and although a woman Of fashion
and beauty, loses no opportu-
nifty to promote enterprises
looking to the welfare of the
unfortunate. While at Buenos Ayres
she conducted memorial festival,
which resulted in securing 50, 900 for a
charitable object. Minister de LONE is
q man of most engaging manners and
of great dignity, without the slightest
pretension, being as courteous and
genial to interiors as to his equals. He
speaks English with great fiuency and
is master of French. He is active and
alert in the performance of all public
duties, and 1t is regarded rs fortunate
that he has been appointed as minister
to this country at n time when he will
be able to contribute to the success of
the great Columbian festival, in which
Spain has an equal interest with our
selves.
