BILE address on .eThe Advantages of Co-opera-
tion in the Associated Charities Mr. Lord
did not think it worth while to discuss the
benefits of cooperation so often spoken of by
associated charity workers., as, for instance
the better care of the poor Of the city rem
dered possible from systematic work. the case
and certainty with which frauds are exposed
and the like. He spoke upon benefit less
obvious, but no less real the advantage to the
common life of the city. '"The most majestic
fact in a community" said Mr. Lord, lis not
the individual life and freedom, but the COM
mon life for which the individual exists. But
the average man is not conscious of this COM
mon life. His conception is that the COM
munity is made for him, and he goes out
into enterprises of a business other ma
ture-even into charity-with this individ
ual conception, and when he enlarges himself
into the family, or when he shares the larger
but still narrow life Of a society or church,
he still thinks of the common life as it may
be used for these narrower and exclusive ends.
The result Of this is that the social organ
ism is divided and broken, and the larger life
suffers, and its resulting disease reacts in
evil effects upon the individual and upon the
other circles that have ignored or misused
it. We see how this works out in the munich
pal life of city,. 1t is a rule in a city, when
aldermen represent certain districts, for each
to try to get for his own district all possible
without regard to the common good. Both
the representative and the constituency are
quite unconscious that they only part
| of larger whole, whose welfare and dignity
are their own This selfish misconception
works out its diyisive and destructive evils
| in the whole of society. Now, in our asso-
ciated charities, a large number come to-
| gether for common purpose and in that con-
| tact become conscious of this common life
! In so doing they lose sight of the individual
and of the smaller coterie interests. We are
| prepared to undertake other cooperative work
| for the public veal. Finding ourselves in the
! larger circle and realizing what it means
| of true life it Is natural for us to undertake
| the things that belong to the larger lfe'
Mr.. Lord concluded by pointing out some
| ways by which this kind of cooperation could
be put in practice for the public good.

mendable public spectacle. l do not know
what circumstance, if any, rendered neces-
sary the prosecution of $50 separate actions

these actions the city is subjected at the

costs alone. In cases of this character, where
officers have. faithfully performed their duty
and are entitled to their compensation (by no

AUSTIN MAY BE ACCOMMODATED.
Mr.. Corbin May Yet Secure a Min
nesAfa Moose.

Executive Agent Fullerton, of the state
game and fish commission, yesterday re-
ceived a second letter from Austin Corbin,
the New York banker, whose request to take
Minnesota moose to New Hampshire, the
executive agent recently denied. Mr. Corbin
explains that while, perhaps, his New Hamp-
shire preserves are not maintained strictly
along the lines of scientific investigation,
for which purposes alone Mr.. Fullerton said
he would consent to the shipping of the
animal, yet he felt that the preservation of
the species, his prime object, was of scarcely
less merit than the scientific study of the
animal. Mr.. Corbin, however, stated that he
had no desire to antagonize the officers
of the law in the case. He did want, how
ever, female Of the species very badly, and
the animal in question answered his purpose
admirably. He closed with cordial invi-
tation to Mr.. Fullerton to visit the preserves
If he ever came New Hampshire way.
With the enlightenment contained in this
second letter, it is likely that Mr.. Fullerton,
for the commission, will accede to Mr.. Cor
bins request.

But Finds Justification, for His Ac-

Judge Kelly and jury are trying the suit
of Louis Kline against john B. Hoxsie, the
commission man which is a. suit to recover
$500 damages for personal assault. The
plaintiff claims Hoxsie tore his collar, broke
his collar button and committed divers and
sundry other acts to disarrange his toilet.

that Kline came to his store, bought box
of lemons for $3.50 and attempted to pay him
off with 1920 in small change. The short
change lead to the trouble, but Hoxie denies
having damaged him in any sum Whatever.
