SITE WAS A TERROR.

An elderly woman, accompanied by a
younger one, boarded an east bound Pearl
street car at the corner of Detroit a few
days ago. The older woman was perhaps
60 and the younger 81.
No sooner had they entered the car than
the elderly woman, without warning,
dropped herself squarely into the lap of
a well dressed man, who was quite over
come by the assault. He managed to push
along a little, and Ivy dint Of much crowd
ing finally made room for the energetic
female.
Il knew there was room here" she
grimly remarked as she wedged herself
back.
Then she noticed that the younger WON
an was still standing
why don't you sit down, Lizzie?" she
asked.
Hush, mother" said the younger
woman.
The mother inadvertently regarded the
man upon whom she had just seated her
self
"Well.' she said, cts evident that when
they taught little boys good manners
you wasn't there"
The man, quite an elderly one, made no
reply. but his face rapidly Redeemed.
Mother" cried the daughter, do be
quiet"
The mother paid no heed to this.
IT'S easy to see, she went on, that
you are not a Frenchman. Then she sar-
castically added: Because Frenchmen
are always polite.
She watched the effect of this shot. but
the old man was absorbed IN the advertise
ing signs
It's still easier" she said, ito notice
that you are not an Irishman, because
they are the politest of all"
Mother, mother" whispered the girl
But the mothers blood was up.
You can't pretend you don't see the
lady standing she sneered, because
you looked square at her when she came
in If her mother hadn't been by I've no
doubt you would have winked"
Mother, You mustn't go on sou
But just then the car stopped at Seneca
street and the victim arose and hurredly
aiighted. AS he passed through the door
the elderly woman remarked in a loud
and decidedly victorious tone:

Andrew Carnegie and H. C. Frick
proved themselves safe, conservative
and long-headed business men, years
ago, and while some of their ventures
in times gone by seemed, to an onlook-
ing public, gigantic and top-heavy, re-
suits have proven in every instance
that these men were simply able to see
further into the future than their fell
low manufacturers, and to lay founda-
lions upon which tremendous enter
prises could be built with safety. When
the Carnegie Steel Company Nimited)
was chartered some dozen years ago,
with $10,0o0,0O0 capital, the figures
were startling. but few years trial

the first Of the iron and steel combines,
were capable not only Of earning
dividends upon that capitalization, but
Of paying for gigantic extensions and
developments along natural and safe
lines.
Slowly and steadily the Carnegie
Company developed branches of indus
try for its own betterment. Railroads
were built, coke fields opened, ore
mines bought and operated. lake trans
portation lines secured to carry its
raw materials; every line OF iron and
steel manufacture that promised profit
was entered; all forces were organized
and put to work to cheaper the cost
of production and marketing.
Now, the Carnegie Company has out
grown it's charter and it's capitalize
ton. 1t has grown to such proportions
that it is dependent upon no man nor
any set of men for any single article
that it must have in the conduct OF its
business. 1t has its mills and fur
naces so perfected and manned that it
can dictate the prices of its products,
and set market values for all competi-
tors-this because it can produce steel
and iron more cheaply than any rival.
In these days OF corporate wind and
water, of bubble-like companies and
top-lofty financial and industrial en-
terprises, one would expect concern
SO eminently powerful in the worlds
markets, to reorganize upon basis
that would open the way for specu-
lation and jobbery. With the conf
dence the people have in the financial
and executive ability of the men at the
head of the Carnegie Company, an al
most unlimited amount of stock could
be fioated at a premium. But the men
who made the Carnegie Company great
appear determined to keep it great. A
reorganization, consequent upon the
retirement of Andrew Carnegie from
business life, is to take place, but it
will not be on basis of wind or water
Mr.. Frick says the men who now own
the Carnegie Company will continue to
own it, and to manage it. A Pennsyl-
vania charter will not be exchanged
for one with fewer honest restrictions
from Jersey or Delaware. The stock
of the new company will not be offered
to the public, but will be placed at such
an amount that the present owners
will want to hold it for profit. The
company's properties are ample, Mr..
Frick says, to pay desirable dividends
on the increased capitalization
$250,000, 000-and safety will be the
first consideration
In all of this Carnegie and Frick
have again demonstrated their wisdom
and have set up business standard
which the promoters of wildcat COM
bines may contemplate with profit.
