H. X. Thurber of New York city,
of the remarkable men of America
In 1858, he established in that city a
wholesale grocery house, which intro
duced for the first time in the Ameri-
can trade, the packing of groceries in
an attractive form. In 1884, he retired
from business with fortune of s., 000,-
900 acquired entirely by honest toll and
superb management. He then lost his
head. Like many of the poor boys who
had left the country towns, for VEN
lures in the Metropolis, he had, for the
best part of his life, thought of moth
ing but money making. Philanthropy
interested him as side issue, and he
contributed freely to its needs. But
the best part of his life had been spent
in acquiring the habit of money max
ing, and when he retired, he found
himself in the deep canon of this
habit, and he could not rise above it's
banks.
Any other life but that of a money
maker was strange and unnatural TO
him. So he soon plunged into new en-
terprises, the nature and conditions of
which he did not understand, although
he sincerely believed that he did.
These affairs gave an outlet to his
great energy. His shrewd friends could
not hold him within bounds. His
wife, to whom he had opened his purse.
freely for every philanthropic cause,
could not restrain him. He had fixed
his habits and could not change them.
He also lived in and breathed the spe-
culative air of the times. He invested
in great soap enterprise. large boot
and shoe mandatory, in steamships,
in western ranches and mines, and in
1891, he went under" owing large
sums of money. Instead of giving UP
the game, he started in his Goth year
of age for the West, and undertook to
get out of his scattered properties, by
careful work, sufficient money to pay
| his creditors. He worked against an
ebbing tide, but he pulled lusty oar
with the enthusiasm of youth. He
contracted pneumonia in Kansas and
died a few days ago. 1t was said by
one of his friends who had seen him
when he was the genial and ambitious
King of the grocery world, that it was
pathetic to watch the enthusiasm OF
this broken merchant, who had once
been the leader of the New York Cham
Der of Commerce, as he dashed over
the western prairies, in his old age

Even if the nation which freely gave
$1,000, 900 per day in driving the Span
iards out of Cuba, in the name of and
for the sake of humanity, cannot con-
tribute funds towards the establish
ment of this international Institute,
the men and women of the nation can
do so. The ignorance and weakness
and thriftlessness of the Spanish must
now be reached though their girls and
women. The benefits TO be conferred
on the coming generations OF Spanish
children, by an Institution that will
teach the young women of Spain the
best theory and practice of life, known
TO the Anglo-Saxons, cannot be meas
ured in money. Above all, America
owes sentimental debt to Spain,
which cannot better be paid than by
planting in Madrid a perpetual memo
rial of the discovery made by Column
bus.

following up his cattle interests out
of which he expected to pay many OF
his debts.
He was a staunch Republican. No
man gave more freely TO the cause.
But he denounced his own party in
a memorable article in Belford's Maya
zine in 1889, because II had permitted
the American foreign marine service
TO become nearly extinct, and the Stars
and Stripes to become as rare in for
eign ports as the flag OF Peru. He de-
nounced the protection of the manufac-
turing interest alone. He claimed that
i. was unjust and "un-American" 20

But the party did nothing.

NOT FRESH. BUT VALUABLE.

Egg collectors recently had a chance
in London to buy one of the three
eggs of the great aux, which were for
merly in the collection of Count Raoul
de Berace. There are about seventy
eggs of this great extinct bird now in
existence, and at recent auction sales
they have brought from $500 TO $3.50.
The eggs are rather smaller than
those of the ostrich. Living specimens
OF the great aux were found off the
coast of Iceland within the memory OF
people now living, but they yielded to
the rapacity of hunters and collectors.

A RECLAIMED IDOL.

The discovery of a helpless, infirm
and retired idol buried many feet under
the soil, near Eva, has produced a
ccmmotion among the idols who are
now residing in the Bishop Museum,
at the expense of me great Bishop
charity The monotony of their lives
was suddenly broken when Prof Brig
ham, their beloved priest and friend,
announces to them the recovery of an
esteemed idol from a hole in the
ground, Gentlemen idols and gods, /

you the discovery of one of your long
lost brethren, and my expectation that

1t is an open secret that since many
idols of Oceanica have been placed in
the Bishop Museum, Prof. Brigham has
not always respected or recognized
their different ranks and idols of low
pedigree have been placed on shelves
which are higher than those upon
which the most distinguished gods
were located. This unfortunate ar

The bitter feud which has so long
existed between the Hawaiian idols.
and the missionary party has now sub
stantially ended. Inc idols concede,
after seventy years of controversy
that for the accident of their general

sionaries were mainly responsible

Couldn,t Lick Dewey.

From the Washington Star: A cor.
respondent tells this story: my
daughter, who teaches in a mission
Sunday school, tells me of a Dewey ex-
perience she had with a youngster
making his first appearance. She had
put him through a half an hour or
more of instruction in the rudimentary
principles, for he was entirely lacking
IN information on that point, and to
test him was reviewing her work with
him. Now she said, tell me again
who made the world and all that is
in it? God did, replied the boy, with
commendable promptitude. God can
do anything, can't he?' she asked
again. The boy hesitated a moment.
I don't believe he could lick Dewey
he answered at last, and his teacher
sat silent between her religion and her
patriotism. 1t wasn't her time to say
anything, if she didn't want to lose
that boy forever, and she had wit
enough to let it go at that"

A MUCH LARGER ARMY NEEDED
For Lack OF Mon Macarthur and Law

MANILA, May a-.-Evcnts of the
past week have emphasized the need
OF a much larger army here, without
which, according to the best authori.
tics in Manila, it would be attempting
the impossible to expect to establish
American supremacy in the Philippine
Islands. The i~nadequacy of the Amer
lean forces is said to be responsible
.or u large total loss in the number of
small encounters, without material
results as n compensation.
Most OF the warfare has been in ter
ritory which the Americans had swept,
but had been compelled to abandon
because they could not spare troops to
hold it.
The forces commanded by Generals
Macarthur and Llwton held two i'm
portant lines OF communication and
commerce, the railroad to San Fer
nando and tho Rio Grandc river. But
much OF the country they have swept,
Including scores of the smaller towns,
and some of the larger ones, have
been left uncovered, simply for want
of men to hold them, and the insur-
gents have returned and are occupy
ing the towns the Americans aban-
doned. These rebels are camping in
the jungles and woods, upon the
watch for chances to harrnss the
American garrisons and attack scout
ing parties Or detached companies.
This kind Of warfare they prefer to
regular battles.
1t appears that the Filipinos who
attacked the Third regiment between
San Miguel and Balinag were part of
Flo del Pillars army. They came
from the south across the mountains
presumably to meet a wagon train
General Lawton expected alono
road. They also planned
to capture several large de.
tachments and were placed in ambush
ut different points. They fired
from the jungle at a distanc, of 200
yards and gave the Americans one of
