Find the Moral For Yourself

A few years ago queer old gentleman
in New Jersey died, leaving property
worth about $50, 900 to Henry George, the
single tax advocate. George was to use the
fortune in smashing land monopoly and
disseminating single tax doctrines. The
queer old gentleman had some relatives
in the west, and they vowed by all that
was good and great the property should
never be used for any such unorthodox
purpose-no, not if they had to go to law
and take possession of it themselves. Il
was not that they wanted it, but they
would not let it go for such crank OBJ
ject. They argued that, according to the
testator's bequest, the money was TO be
used in breaking down existing laws.
and it was unlawful to try to bLeak
down existing laws.
The first court decided in favor OF the
relatives. By that time Benry George
had his blood up, and he determined to
see whether it was really unlawful to
try to break down existing laws whel,
you think they are bad laws. He ap-
pealed the case and fought it through
court after court. The queer old mall
had left wife unprovided for. Henry
George said if he got the money be
would see that she was made comfort
able for life. But the relatives were Ge-
termined that no such small consideTa
ton as the maintenance of testator'S
widow should stand in the way of the
performance of high public duty, ana
SO they refused to let her have any share
OF the property. The old lady vert L
the poorhouse and died broken heartaC
because she had to 60. The relative.
still lawed and lawed on. The case Id.
just been decided in favor of Henry
George, who gets the property. Blu
there is now only 5000 left of it. Thc
lawyers got the rest.

Here's Full Dress Uniform.

Lieutenant Hero of the army has been
creating no end of excitement in Wash
ington society for some time past by ap-
pearing at every entertainment to which
he is invited in the gorgeousness of his
full dress uniform. This action, far from
being due to some causeless freak of fan
cy or. the part of the lieutenant. has a
distinct end in view.
He is in the city for the purpose of get
ting bill through congress by which
army officers of all ranks shall be com.
PEELED in future to wear their uniforms
whenever they appear at public or pri
vate gatherings of a social nature. 1t is
in order to carry out in practice his theo
ries on the subject that Lieutenant Hero
is pursuing his decidedly novel manner
of dress at afternoon teas and similar
functions.-KateF Fields Washington.

The Indianapolis Plan.

1t is generally recognized that the
Gethod of relief for the needy adopted in
Indianapolis is one of the best yet hit
upon to strike the happy medium be-
tween fostering pauperism and refusing
all help. The whole distribution of funds
was left to committee of three men,
prominent citizens. The charities or
CARNATIONS turned over their funds to the
new committee, and they began work.
Their first step was to discourage ana
l'rbid as far as possible all indiscrimi-
Pate charity. Beggars were to be sent
10 the bureaus which the committee Or
ganized. One of ese was labor
bureau. All applicants for help We're
registered, their names and addresses
taken, and strict examination into their
previous character was made.
A labor bureau was established, and
those desiring work were placed on a
list. The committees officers succeeded
in finding work for about 20 per cent
The city did not help any, but the private
and other contributions enabled the COM
mittee to put the men at work on streets
and parks.
The best feature perhaps was the sales
depot which the committee opened. The
applicant for aid went to the regis
tration bureau and got ticket certi-
fyincr that he was in need He h,.o1, ~ 7
it to the store. There necessary sup
plies were issued to him at the lowest
rate on credit They were not given
to him-he bought them on credit and
promised to pay for them when he could
get work. AS fast as there was vacan-
cy ne was summoned to redeem his
promise. Most of the applicants obeyei
the summons cheerfully. One day
work at time is given. This supplies
for one week food for three persons.

Difference Between Check" and Nerve"
Many people use the word "cheek"
and nerve" of everyday vernacular, as
if they were synonymous and inter.
changeable. A bright friend called our
attention to this the other day by max.
ing very nice distinction between them.
It's idiotic, said he, to use the words
"cheek" and nerve" as if they meant
the same. Cheek is no more nerve than
beauty is brain. A man may have both;
but it's not usual. Cheek is active. Nerve
is passive. Cheek needs mouth Nerve
very seldom uses one and then only to
shut it. Cheek talks and acts. Nerve
thinks, waits and achieves. Cheek is
sometimes admirable in its ends, but is
usually offensive in its means. NERVES.
never offensive.
Don't ever think man necessarily
lacks nerve just because he doesn't ash
for what he wants. His forbearance
may be the best proof of his nerve. A
cheeky man compares with nervy one
as Splinter of 100 yards dash COM
pares with 20 miles go-as-you-please
runner. Cheek is sometimes blessing
and sometimes a curse. Nerve is al
ways blessing.
In these days, when taking" is fine
art, cheek has a better chance to win
financial success than nerve has, think.
But though nerve dies poor it probably
dies happy.-Donahoe's Magazine.

The bills which the British house Of
lords has maze itself SO obnoxious by re-
jecting are the home rule act and the
parish councils act. The house of com
mons adopted the hampering, mischiev-
GUS amendments the lords had loaded
upon the employers liability bill rather
than not pass the act at all, but it was
done by only majority of two and ac-
companied by no diminution of the deep
and ominous growls against the lords
that have been heard of late in the lower
house. The employers liability act and
the parish councils act were two laws
that the majority of Englishmen de-
manded, whether they cared for home
rule or not. The action of the blindly
foolish lords is therefore only one more
step toward their destruction. British
legislation will soon refuse to be ha1a-
pered by these old fellows.

Like q Brave Man.

John Weitzel was one of the boldest
pioneers Of West Virginia. "a man alb
solutely without fear" one of the enron.
iclers of those times calls him. The man.
ner of his death was worthy of that Gu.
logy. In the pursuit Of his occupation,
that of hunter and surveyor, he often
undertook long journeys alone--a reck.
less proceeding wheI time and place are
considered-and was never accompanied
by more than one or two friends.
One day, while returning in q canoe
with one companion from an excursion
to Middle Island creek, he was hailed by
a large party of Indians and ordered tc
put ashore. Without making any reply
he headed the boat for the middle of the
stream, and with his companion made
every effort to escape.
The Indians fired on the instant, and
one of the bullets struck Weitzel in the
body. Seeing at once that the wound
was mortal, he ordered the other man
to lie Down in the canoe, and then With
renewed vigor, though his life was ebb
ing fast, he pulled for the opposite shore.
The Indians fired another volley; but
without effect, and before they could re,
load the boat was out of range. Weitzel
expired soon after reaching the bank
and was buried by his companion. His
grave may still be seen, marked by a
rough stone on which is traced in rude
characters, ~. W., 1887. YOUTHS Com
