CHICAGO PHlLANTHROPIsTs.

Chicago has reason to be proud of her
millionaireS - or a portion of them.
There are score OF them that have
built for themselves monuments more
enduring than shafts of marble or
bronze monuments that will perpetu-
ate their names through all time and call
down the blessings OF posterity.
The phenomenal growth of Chicago
has created many rich men. Those
who secured small tracts of swamp in
the early days have been made i'm
menseiy rich by the natural accretion
of values. An acre or two that forty
years ago could have been purchased
for few hundred dollars would now
bring millions. Business enterprises,
small in their beginnings, have grown
to mammoth proportions-have been
forced to grow, in fact-and fortunes
have been made with astonishl ne rapid
ity.
1t is gratifying to observe that in a
sordid age, and surrounded by condi-
tons that tended to repress rather than
develop the more generous impulses of
humanity. few of Chicago'S wealthy
citizens have had a care for the future
well being of the masses of the people,
and have seen to it that the city shall
not lack for those advantages that con-
tribute so largely to peoples great
ness. Immense sums of money have
been donated for purposes of public ed
ucation and improvement by many of
the leading capitalists. and the best
feature of the majority of these dona-
lions is that the benetactorS have not
waited till after their death to give
effect to their requests. The Newberry
library was established from funds be-
queathed by the late Walter L. New
berry. So was the Crerar library,
a monument to the late John Crerar.
DR.. d. K. Pearsons, however. led the
way in the direction of ante morte m
benevolence. His first donation was
that of a public hall and library to Be-
lott college, which cost quarter of a
million. When John D. Rockefeller Ell.
dowed the Chicago university with a
| million and half DR.. Pearsons followed
with half a million, and he has since
| supplemented that amount by half as
much more, and Martin A. RyerSon has
given princely sum to the same OBJ
ject. Philip d. Armour some years
ago founded and endowed the Armour
mission at a cost OF hundreI and fifty
thousand dollars. 1t was designed for
| the benefit of the poorer classes, and al
first was experimental. lis success be-
ing demonstrated. Mr. Armour built
and endowed a-manual training school
which has already, although but two
years old, proved Of great benefit to the
working classes. Then Marshall Field
| donated a million for founding public
museum from exhibits at the worlds fair,
and George NJ. Pullman has followed
his example with his check for half a
million for the same purpose. HUI ]

Judgment which wide experience gives,
and all tempered by the lessons in char
ity and tolerance which long living
among men and women and experience
OF their faults and virtues teaches.
From some such point of view and
vantage we imagine Mr.. Young has
written the interesting book which lies
before us. The conversational IN athod
adopted has the advantage of relieving
the philosophy of the book from the
tedium of mere dissertation, and thus
engages the attention while it imparts
instruction. Naturally the rabbi is the
philosopher of the company which meets
of evenings in the parlor of Mrs. Rus
sells boarding house and discusses the
tariff, the fatis of the schools, the single
tax, machinery and its relation to labor,
commercial and industrial combinations
and others of the questions of the day
which men and women think about and
are forced into contact with, and whose
presence IS but the portent of sociolog-
icai changes to come as resultant of
these old-new forces.

contributor. the teacher and the student
and others from the various yocations
make up the company. and take more
or less active part in the conversations
and discussions, as the experiences of
each have brought them in touch with
the topics.
10 this delightful task Mr.. Young
brings life's experience in that widest
and best of all schools, the work of
newspaper editor. AS no other pursuit
does this compel study of conditions,
and the questions that spring out Of
them, while it skills its pupil in analysis
and aIertness by the constant fire of
criticism he is under, and the ever pres
ent need of instant defense of conclu-
sions. It's tendency is to develop the
critical and Judicial faculties more than
those of the retained advocate. 1t is in
the spirit bred of such a training that
Mr.. Young's company are made to dis
cuss the questions. and the result is
very entertaining book which we take
pleasure in commencing to our readers.

of dissatisfaction are increasing with

the Cubans are sick of their taskmas-

The reports of the mercantile and

encouragingly of the business situation.
Manufactures are resuming operations
on every hand, and business houses are
preparing to extend their lines of trade.

ly few unemployed mechanics in the

MEDICAL journals are. calling atten-
ton to the growth OF intemperance
among women. There can be no doubt
that the fair sex is becoming more and
more addicted to liquor yearly, and their
opportunities for indulgence are con-
stantly increasing. And it is a we'll
known fact that woman who once
allows the passion for drink to get the
best of her seldom reforms. The SUBJ
ject is serious one, and deserves the
most careful attention, not of medical
men alone, but of society at large.

Yesterday afternoon viii Downie.
otherwise known as Fisher, was ar
rested for grand larceny and lodged at
the central station. He is charged with
having worked smooth game on a
farmer, much to the latter's discom-
fort. AS the story goes, Downie,
being short of cash. bethought himself
of scheme which went through sue
cessfully, but unfortunately entailed
the unhappy sequel of an arrest. He
found person, SO it is alleged, who
desired to lay in his winters supply of
potatoes, and DownIe contracted to pro-
cure for him the agreed quantity of the
edible tuberS. He then looked up
an honest farmer, with whom he drove
bargain. The worthy husbandman
drove to the location where he was di-
rected, and begun to unload the veget-
ables. DUwnie. so it is claimed. agreed
to pay the farmer as soon as he had
unloaded the potatoes. In the mean
time, while the worthy tiiler of the soil
was industriously Juggling the potatoe $
in. Downie collected the pay and slid
out. The farmer, Disguised with the
whole deal, entered complaint, and
Downie will be given chance to square
himself In court if he can.

Great Success in Nominations.


st. Peter Herald.
The Herald was the first paper in the
state to nominate E. NJ. Wilson for gov
ernor. Four years later it was the first
to suggest Dan W. Lawler. 1t was in
dorsed ID both of these selections, al
though neither were successful at the
polls. Itwould have been pleased to
have seen Mr.. Lawler renominated, for
we believe that in an off year he might
have been elected. However, we have
in mind another man who above all 9TH
erS is the proper man to lead Democracy
next year. He Is fitted for that cam
paign for various reasons. First, he has
the confidence of the people, who ap-
preciate his honesty and integrity. Sec
ond, there is no ADLER man in the state
Third, he is an old pioneer who has seen
the state grow from / fancy to man
hood, and has been so instrumental in
assisting in that development that he
knows of its every need. Fourth, he is
a friend of the common people and be-
lieges in equal rights to all, special
privileges to none. This man whom we
would nominate for this high Office is
Judge Charles E. Flandrau, of st. Paul.
If nomin ated he could be elected.

THE shrinkage in the possessions of
reputedly rich men that takes place in
the probate courts is one of the anon
allies of the age. 1t frequently happens
that men who are regarded as million
aires during their lives turn out to have
been worth but moderate amount. 1t
was commonly supposed in Chicago that
the late Mayor Harrison was worth from
S5.oOO,0o0 to sS,00O.00O; but his Will, filed
for probate on Friday. shows that his
estate will inventory something less
than million. Considering all the cir
cumstances, the fortune left by Mr..
Harrison is an exceedingly moderate

less from the start-how groundless is
