George William Childs was born ,in
Baltimore in 1929 The practical part of
his makeup was born with him. When
he was u years of age he spent a sum
mer vacation as errand boy in q book
store at a salary of two dollars week and
enjoyed it, Almost anything might be
expected of a boy of 70 who enjoyed
running errsnds, and Mr. Childs has Lot
disappointed the expectation. Soon after
he removed to Philadelphia and entered a
store, doubtless as a mixture of clerk and
errand boy.
Mr. Childs had good business judgment,
but it required something more than judg
ment to pay $50 OOO for piece of property
losing that amount annually-it required
pluck. The owner at the end of the first
week doubled the price and advanced the
sdvartisiup rpte There WAS "A considers
bic falling Oh OF advertisements, but the
paper had become medium of commuui
cation between employers and employed
between buyers and sellers, landlords ana
tenants, bereaved families and their
friends, and the first loss OF patronage
was so .. ....
The Ledger mas grown in pro-sn.....
pays Mr. ChIlus more than $1,000 u dag
Elear profit.
OF Mr.. Childs' more practical American
charities, even those which are known
are too numerous to catalogue To serve
him in his employ was sure to bring the
employe pension when worn out, and
during his term of service certainty of
being cared for in his misfortune. But
doubtless the unknown charities sur
passed those which were manifest He
gave away fortune every year. One
who once saw a private record of his char
titles has said that, though the period
covered was only one month, the total
amount given was s2S, 600.
one OF MT Ch1lds' hobbies was the cui
tivation of distinguished people, but while
he aspired to be intimate with those in
power he took equal pride in the friend
ship Of those whose fame brought with ii
no substantial influence His persona
"reminiscences of General Grant, published
in LippnCott's Magazine some years ago
revealed AN extremely simple and uuaf
fected style and constituted one Of the
most interesting contributions concerning
the life of the great commander.

Special HERALD correspondence,
PoTTsvGLLE, Feb 2-The license mill has
temporarily suspended operations. The
Judges are now preparing more fuel. If a
multiplicity of evidence as to good charac er
and necessity for dispensaries of malt and
brewed liquors counts for anything shenan-
doah will have an abundance of such places
and the borough treasury will be greatly
enriched
The CaU of Schuylkill Haven, is not in
good mood over the trick played upon it by
the Republican Of this place. The Board OF
Health ordinances were to have been pub.
lished by the lowest bidder. Had the Rspub-
hcaH charged its full rates, the same as it
charges the county, this borough and others,
it would have asked 500 for the publication,
but it cut its own rates and took the work for
Sl2 and the call was left at the S45 mark
B. JEFF Yost is quite 81 fixture in the Clerk
of the Courts office and has become one of
the best known men on the "hill." l would
not be surprised if he should bob up serenely
for Sheriff this year know that bee has
been buzzing in his hat for years past. But
perhaps he will decide to wait until after his
present term as clerk expires. JEFF Is still
young
Within few years Pottsville will have as
many dram shops as Shenandoah has. The
majority of officials who step out OF office on
the hill seem to see no other business open tC
them than the saloon. Two.thirds OF the
eX'county officials of recent years are now
mixing cocktail
l see our old friend General Joshua Sigfred
has resigned the management of the electric
railway here. l presume he became ashamed
OF the niggardly policy of the company in
dispensing with the motor men and making
Siamese twins of the conductors. The General
displayed good sense in resigning, under the
circumstances.
There are rumors atloat that a new daily
Republican organ is TO be established here, bu
no intimation is made AS to who the peopl,
behind the project are. The chances are tel
to one that it is a growth of some disappoint
ment, if it has any likely existence and vii
end in wind

Many Sports DIsappointed at Mahsnoy City

Special to the HERALD
MAHANoY CITY, Feb. 3-Two hundred
sports Of all sorts assembled in the Armory
hall at - o'clock last night to witness
twenty round glove contest between Charles
Gillespie, of Boston, and Joe" Giller, of
Norristown, for a purse Of 500. The enter
tainmeut was opened by several bouts
between fistic stars of local reputation after
which the big go was announced.
Giller entered the ring, a well built good
looking young fellow of 100 pounds He was
stripped to the waist and wore black trunks
and hose of the same color. Gillespie did
not put in an appearance, however, and the
spectators grew impatient. One of his hackers
then came forward and announced that
the receipts of the evening, after ex
penses were paid only amounted to 500, and
that the Boston man refused to fight for less
han S100
The crowd became angry, but that they
might not be disappointed by having no fight
pat" Cleary, a well known heavy weight
offered TO spar any man in the house, four
rounds for fun, or the gate receipts It was
tempting offer to many local scrappers bat
glance at Cleary's six feet and three inches
heighth sutliced to remove the temptation.
Young Giller accepted the offer and the
banty and the giant went at it hammer and
tongs for minute until the crowd saw how
one sided hOuOrs were bound to be and called
enough There was a general howl for a
return of the admission money, but as many
dead -hesds and some swelled heads had been
admitted TO the hall the management felt
doubtful Of their ability to make returns to
the right parties
The affair was an experience lesson to the
management, for reasons of their own, oh
jected to any advertisement Of the event and
the result was a poor attendance.
