CAREER OF YERKES
Just how much money Mr.. Yerkes is
worth is unknown to the present writer.
1t must be a vast sum. for no one but
veritable Count OF Monte Cristo could
afford TO build a palace such as has
been family described above. He began
life in Philadelphia and it is stated that
his first business operation was in soap.
Here is the story, though its truth is
not vouchod for When he was but
mere lad he left his fathers house one
morning and strolled down among the
docks. Here he ran across a sheriff s
SALE the auctioneer of which was sell
ing out the petty stock of a small soap
maker who had become insolvent. There
were few bidders and the highest sum
offered for the entire stock was SIT. The
boy bid y1S and in spite of his tender
years. induced the auctioneer to knock
IT down TO him and then to wait until
he could get the money to pay with.
Breathlessy the lad rushed into his
fathers place OF business and asked for
SIS. The elder Yerkes hesitated, but
finally took the money from the till and
gave it to the boy. Then the youngster
hurried back, exchanged the money for
the soap, hired an express wagon and
peddled out his purchase to- a number
or small grocers. The next day he re-
paid the advance and had $31, clear
profit. left.
The records are silent as to whether
the precocious youngster followed this
stroke of business with others during
the years that interviewed before he was
twenty, but IL was not to be presumed
that he failed to develop his immature
financial capacity to the fullest extent.
Al twenty he entered a brokers' Office
as clerk. Five years later he was junior
member Of the firm. a little after that

oar DUTY to Cuba.

Under this heading, Henry Mann
shows in Home and Country, most
excellent way for this country to got up
war with Spain, II not with sll Europe
combined.
Mr. Mann thinks ''our duty to Cuba is
plain. The American government
should demand that Spain withdraw her
troops from Cuba. and leave the Cubans
to decide as to whether they wish TO be
independent or to preserve the con.
nection with Spain. This demand
should be prompt and unequlvocal, 60
that no doubt should be left in the
Spanish mind as to tbs result Of refusal.
Spain would in all probability NOT
refuse for such course would involve
not only the loss Of her American
possessions, but disaster and ruin at
home. The Spanish government might
offer to sell the island to the United
States, and tins make profit out Of The
inevitable by relieving a bankrupt
treasury, II Spain, however, should
prefer a conflict to surrender, the result
could not be doubtful.

Spaniards and men Of the British race

YoIoInr Nerro snntImant.

A citizen Of Atlanta. Ga. who IA
interested In the emigration Of the
colored people from the Southern states.
recently sent out letters to the lending
negroes asking about the present con-
ditions and the sentiment Of the race
concerning removal. The answers re.
Ceived seem to indicate a general con
dition Of prosperity aud little desire 10
leave their present homes
In most of the states the aggregate
amount OF property held by negroes was
estimated between $ll, 900 900 and $15, =
600 600. Only in West Virginia was II
reckened as low as 81 600. 600, and there
the colored people indicated no desire To
seek a change. In Mississippi and
Texas the blacks complain OF hard times,
and Of their number perhaps one third
would be willing to emlgrate. This
sentiment is shared to some extent by the
colored people Of Georgia and Arkansas
In the latter state, IS we'll as in Virginia,
Missouri and Florida, there il complaint
that employers, especially manufacturers
from the North, discriminate in favor 81
white labor, thus Increasing the
antagonlsm between the races.
The comparatively small number Of
negroes who would be willing to emlgrat,
srelnet agrsed upon destination From
Florida and Mississippi the exodus woul a
tend toward Africa but the Virginia aud
South Carolins negroes would not con
sent to join this movement. In fact
they are very decided IN their objection,
to Africa. Some Of the Arkansas ant
Texas negroes would like to 20 to Cen
tral America, but this choice would moi
meet with general favor
Aside, then from spirit OF uneasinesl
smong the members Of a dissatisfied
minority, there is. it would seem, L,
disposition on the part OF the Southern
negroes TO leave their homes.
