EGOTISM VERSUS SELF-KNOW-
LEDGE.

Few things are more vague, to most
minds. than the word 'egotism,' or the
trait of character for which it stands.
The fact that the word finds it's root in
the latin ''ego'', proves that, primarily,
it means the too frequent use of the
first personal pronoun, whether in the
singular or plural number, the mascu-
line or feminine gender. 1t is etymo-
logicallv. no more or less than ''l' ism.
But if one be an egotist, that monster
of human folly, at whom every mum
BILE individual'' points the mocklng
finger of scorn, merely because he con-
iugates his verbs in the first person,
st. Paul was the chief of egotists; and
all modern "editors" are in the apos-
| tolic succession.
Leaving this merely chronological
sense as inadequate, what of the COM
mon definition which makes egotlsm
much speaking or writing OF oneself
Is not this often no more grlevous
fault than that of frankneSs, the re-
suit of all ingenious and unsuspectlng
nature, that thinks not of the risk OF
construction Are there not many
to whom the first personal pronoun is
all-absorbing- idol-who are too
prudent to hang their heart upon
their sleeve for DAVIS to peck at? Does
not duplicity hide an inordinate self
: esteem behind mock humility quite
{ as often as simplicity reveals it?
With nothing is egotism more fre
r quently and more unjustly confused
3 than with self-knowledge, or the self
S confidence which it begets. Solon gav'

r temple of Appollo at Delphi: "knoV

low Students in the Nebraska Peniten-
tiary"
If we say that it was in his own charm
ing style, and eminently well adapted
to meet the peculiar circumstances OF
the case, every one who has ever heard
him will understand something OF what
he had to say of ''Look Up and Lift
Up" and perhaps of how it was received
by those to whom it was especially ad-
dressed, and by all who listened to it.
1t was read by Mrs. M. d. Welch,
graduate of the class of 1888, and one
who had been especially active in the
Inauguration of this mOvemeet.
The letter, with a photograph of the
chancellor, was subsequently laid where
they could be seen by. the men as they
should pass out, and many availed them
selves of the opportunity to look at the
picture and autograph of the man whose
words had made them feel that back of
all was hearty desire for the success
of the Chautauqua movement among
them, to the sole end and purpose of
their real and lasting profit.

He spoke without notes, and whatever
preparation he may have made, 1t was
evident that his surroundings and th'
inspiration of the hour had much to az
with the matter and the manner OF hi

that it was a remarkable production

MISSOURI a NEWS.
Too Much Speculation.


The discovery is made that Collector
Hall of Buchanan county is short in
his accounts with the county SIS, 400.
The shortage was made up by the National
Bank Of st. Joseph and the First national OF
Buchanan county, each paying in $500. II was
supposed that the bond Of Mr.. Hall for his sec
ond term in ONCE would be approved, as it
would be made by these banks, and he would
be permitted to serve out his second term with
a deputy in charge OF the Office, who would be
selected by the banks. Mr.. Hall was forced to
resign, and Edward ]. Breen was appointed as
his successor. The money was lost in specu-
lating.
GROWING WORSE.
Five hundred and twenty-eight false entries
have been discovered in the books which are
SAID 10 represent q shortage much larger than
the $4,000 PIT up by the banks. The county
court has issued a notice to holders OF tax re-
ceiptS to present them for comparison with
figures on the books. Hall has disappeared.
TIT Office was declared vacant By the county
court, and Sheriff Andriano was directed to
take charge of the books and property in the
office until further orders of the court.
EN- ROUTE TO JAPAN.
A recent dispatch from St. Joseph says:
County Collector George Hall is believed to
be en- route to Japan. He was seen in Omaha
by d Burlington conductor. and denied his
identity. Officers are trying to have him ar
rested before sailing. Meanwhile the shortage
in his office continues to grow. II will run up
to $50, 900 or more.
DEPUTIES ARRESTED.
ST. JOSEPH, April 27.-A sensation was Gre
ated yesterday by the arrest of Hollis Brandow
and Thomas W. Rogers, deputy county collec-
tors under George Hall. The deputies protest
their innocence, but the county court claims TO
have strong evidence against them. They are
specifically charged with embezzling $4,000,
and were admitted to bail in 5000 each. Hall
wrote i letter to Rogers, dated here, and say
ing he was gone for good. More shortages
were discovered yesterday.
