Many Noted stage Favorites.
The recent death in Paris of Angus
tin DAILY removed the foremost Ameri.
can theatrical manager. He was 8
scholar, n Shakspearean student and
did much to bring the plays Of the
Avon poet into popularity here.
He was born in Plymouth, n. c., six.
ty-one years ago and was the son Of 8
judge. In early life he went upon the
stage, but failed as an actor and took
to writing plays, first Of them being
Leah, the Forsaken," which he wrote
for Kate Bateman. He was also heI
manager for a time. Then he organ
lied famous stock company and some
of the most noted of American stage
favorites learned their lessons of him

Just one hundred years ago the Man.
haitian company of New York City
was Incorporated by Aaron Burr. It's
ostenslble purpose was to supply the
city with water. Its real purpose was
TO olen a bank. The reason for the
concealment was because there was q
popular prejudice against banks. A
tank was built. hollow logs laid for
pipes, and water was distributed until
1870 In order to keep It's charter this
great banking company. which still
exists, is today obliged to pump water
from its ancient tank. A pltcherful Is
always In evidence az It's annual meet
lngs, and a committee solemnly re-
ports that no applications for water
have been refused. The story has its
humorous side, but It illustrates the
legacy Of pretence and useless effort
which roundabout methods always en-
tail. Aaron Burr's mode Of seeking
one object under cover Of another has
many followers, but in politics or So
ciety or in individual relations 1t can
never be commended and seldom ex-
cused.

The youths who have lately babe
farewell to school and college have
doubtless, high aspirations, but they
can only realize them by going the
right way about It, The country is
strewn with the wrecks Of ambitious
men who preferred TO begin with kid
gloves instead of with sooty hands.
Even In the crowded professions there
is always room at the top for the high
ly proficient. but the summit cannot be
reached except 10y effort Of unusual
vlgOr From the drOne and the incom-
petent we often hear that they are
unable to succeed because nobody helps
them and they have no luck AS a
matter of fact opportunities Of more
or less advantage come to everybody,
but 1t rests with the Individual himself
to grasp them. If the way to success
leads through the car shops or along
the stony levels and rough heights of
the rod man, he is too often disposed
TO ignore the best opportunity that he
will ever have. Life Is real and ear
nest. 1t is not all roses and swans
down. The graduates Of 1899 should
bear this In mind. There is no shame
in honest toll; the greatest rewards
that the world can bestow are reaped
by those who are sensible enough to
start by way Of the car shops or along
the road of the rod or chain bearer
and earn the kid gloves that they can
wear with pride when they have shown
themselves entitled to wear them.

After landing the Judge called upon
the representatives of the three Amer
lean business houses located there
Arnold, Hines & Co. of New York,
Betram & Co. of Salem and Ropes &
Co. of Boston, Mass. Accompanied by
the three Americans and n native in
teipreter, they called officially upon the
Sultan and the Sultana. The Sultan
appeared to be weighed down with do
nestle troubles, having seven regular
wives, to say nothing of a dozen or
more members of his harem, and the
Sultana was evidently the executive
head of She Zanzibar administration
In parting he WAS informed that he
would not be permitted to display the
American flag over the consulate, as
It was distasteful to the Sultan and his
subjects. The hot Virginia blood of
Judge Riley boiled with Indignation
as he entered a most vigorous protest
against the proposed insult to the flag
Of his country. He was told in reply
that il he put up the flag it would be
hauled down. Again the Judge assert
ed his patriotism and declared he
would shoot down the FIRST man who
attempted to insult the emblem of his
country. lie then withdrew and pro-
cceded to hoist the American flag over
the consulate.
A guard Of Arab soldiers appeared
before the consulate and, through an in

the flag. He refused and threatened
to shoot any one who attempted to do
so. Two of the soldiers rushed for
ward with small hatchets in their
hands and were about to cut down the
Flagstaff. The Judge opened fire on the
lntruders and two of the men fell dead
on the steps Of the consulate. The re-
mainder of the guard retreated, carry
ing of their dead comrades A mes
senger returned, saying the Sultana
commanded that flag to be hauled
down within twenty minutes or she
would come in person and haul it
down. The Judge sent his most gra-
cious compliments to her majesty, in
sisting that the flag should remain, and
he added that II she assumed the offices
Of man and attempted to insult the
American flag she would have to ac-
cept the responsibilities of man.
After twenty minutes hal elapsed the
Sultana and her guard appeared be-
fore the consulate. She made an at
tempt to cut down the flagstaff. He
warned her to desst. but she hurled
back at him an Arabic defiance. The
Judge says he lifted his gun ana fired.
and the Sultana received in the desliy
part of her body about forty bird shot.
She was carried back to her. palace,
and II was found that she was not seri-
ously wounded. as the thickness of her
toga had made the perforatons scarce
ly skin deep. 1t was decreed that the
Judge should be Immediately taken out
and shot. He barricaded the consul

quently explanations ensued, and a
commission was sent to Zanzibar to
make thorough investigation Of the
occurrence. Through the exercise of
little diplomacy, the difficulties We're

New Jersey has been for some years
investigating the question of polluted
milk from tuberculous cows with a
view of determining whether such milk
was the cause of consumption among
the people who used it, The subject
was made one of those which the very
excellent state experimental station
attempted to dispose Of. For several
years the station has had In its herd of
cows those which were unquestionably
affected with tuberculosis, but they
were separated from the other animals
and kept solely for the purpose OF
making experiments upon the milk
they gave. An editorial correspondent
of the Rural New Yorker a high au-
thorlty upon agricultural subjects. has
given the results of these investiga-
tons, which are reassurlng even if
they are not accepted as scientifically
correct. The report says that the
milk from these cows has been tested
and Analysed again and again. but
thus far no germs have been found in
1t. SO far as science can determine
these cows have produced clean and
healthful milk" In discussing the
subject edltorially the Journal mem
toned says that although no germs
have been found in the milk 1T is not
safe to say that the milk has never
contained any. The germs might he
found in one milking and not in an
other or in one single quarter of the
udder 1t is difficult TO discover them.
for the testing apparatus is not yet
perfected Sull is may be said that
the germs in such milk are very scarce
If they exist at ALL" The statement
seems to explain one very well-estab
llshed fact, which is that. while tuber.
culosis in COWS Is very rapidly ncreas
ing. consumption In the human family
is constantly decreasing. 1t is believed
TO be a truth that there are fcw herds
Of milch cows that 10 not contain dis,
eased animals, and If the milk from
them serves TO spread tuberculosis
among the human family the wonder
Is that such results should not lac more
apparent However the people do not
want milk from diseased cows. and

extent Of the danger I'm the use of such

the pioneers in the struggle for Cuban
independence. she visited Cuba In
1857, and while there severely crltl-
cised the Spanish authorities for their
methods. After her return she de.
scrlbed her experiences IN book en-.
titled "A Trip TO Cuba" which was
promptly prohibited from circulation
In Spanish countries by the Spanish
censor. So strong was tie official
feeling against the work that about
two hundred Cubans who were found
with the book IN their possession were
severely punished. Since the late war
this book has received a distinct boom.
