A young man must understand,
whether on the farm, behind the coun~
ter, or in whatever pursuit he may be
engaged, that If he does not have the
capacity or love for work there is no
profession in which he can win success
Having this, he will find great oppog-
tunities, and some day earn.his reward.

Cost of Cabling to Manila.

From the New York Tribune
The active operations of the army near
Manila and the anxiety of people in the
United States to communicate with friends
and relatives who are with Gen. Otis
have caused many inquiries as to the cost
of cable messages. When Admiral Dewey
presented the compliments of Uncle Sam to
the Spanish ships In Manila bay telegraph
ing to that part of the world was an eX-
pensive luxury the cost being $50 a word
Business has increased since then. and will
continue to grow, and the rate has been
reduced by slow stages until it has now
reached the bargain counter price of $2S5
a word. The same rules as to address and
signature which are followed with regard
to European kilograms are given messages
to Manila Messages may be prepared and
the telegraph company sends one code
word-at the expense Of the telegrapher-
to indicate how many words the prepaid
answer may contain.
A man whose cousins name was on the
list of wounded last week telegraphed:
Hospital, Manila. Wire condition Smith,
Third Artillery. Book Jones, New York.
$3.50. The word book indicated that an
answer of five words had been prepaid,
and the whole transaction cost $35.25.
Sending or receiving messages Is out of
the question with hundreds of people who
are deeply interested in the movements of
the army, and TO these the published re-
ports giving the names of officers and men
who were killed and wounded we're the
only source of information during the last
few days.
A man whose brother had been wounded
made inquiry at the office of the post adju-
tant at Governor 5, Island as TO how he
could obtain further information as to the
condition of the wounded man, and wheth-
er any additional details would be sent
from the front. He was told by the Off

Thirty Tied on the Big shoot and
Divided the Money.

New York, April 1.-THE opening Of
the seventh annual trap shooting tourna-
ment of live birds under the Auspices Of
the interstate association, which took
place at Elkwood Park. N. J., this morn
ing was attended with glorious weather
When the sport began, there were so
many entries for the hfteen-bird handi-
cap that the management decided to
abandon the seven-bird sweepstakes
which was the only other event on the
days programme.
In all. III shooters faced the traps for
the main event, all of whom stood on the
marks allotted TO them by handicappers
for the Grand American.
Owing to the very large entry, the sharp
shooters who missed two birds dropped
ont of the race, so that the contest could
be finished before dark At the end of
the fifteenth round thirty of the original
field of 21l had tied with fifteen kills EACH
and under the rules governing the con-
test the money. which amounted to $2,1l0
was equally divided among them. Among
the winners were:

?. S. Stubener. Bladensburg, Nd, Ut
yards; b. F. Popham. Memphis, Tenn,
(26 YARDS; W. r. Ellison, Nashville, Tenn,

On a new set of traps near Elkwood
lnn three misses and out events were
decided. The first resulted in tie be

nearly 1900 miles across the continent.
Even at the beginning of the race death
was very near for the millionaire was
stricken in the entire left side with pa
ralysis.
Mr.. Paul left his home in Philadelphia
several weeks ago. on the advice of his
physician. He was president of a big and
wealthy corporation, and overwork had
produced a stroke of paralysis.
The physician advised rest and travel,
and the millionaire, with his son and
physician, DR.. Van Meter, chartered a
special car and started for California. The
party passed through Atlanta on the way
out west, but none of them dreamed that
in a short while they would be bound cast
again and that they would be halted here
in the termination of a desperate but
vain race against the great Destroyer.
When the party reached San Antonio the
patient was so exhausted by the fatgues
of travel that stop was made for rest.
Ten days were spent in the Texas city
and at the end of that time both the mil
liouaire and the physician realized that
further travel was useless, and that 1t
would be advisable to start for the east
without delay.
Then began the grim contest. The luxu-
rious palace car was whirled over the

But speed the palace car ever so fast,

| tant 1t rode in the clacking of the whirl-
ing wheels and the clouds of smoke and
dust that swept in the trail of the flying

When the party reached Atlanta it was
| seen the race was in vain. The millionaire
patient was sinking rapidly and the Pur-
suer was coming so close that it was de-
cided to stop here.
The patient was taken to the sanitorium
! of Drs. Cooper and Elkn.
That was on Friday. On Saturday at
o'clock in the forenoon Mr.. Paul died. At
70 noon the body was sent on to Philadel-
phia over the Southern.

Text of a Sermon.
From the New York World.
London, April 9.-"These Americans are
almost worse than ourselves for marrying
for money" declared the Rev. Wilson Car
lille from the pulpit of st. Mary-at-Hill to-
day.
Millionaire Marriages was his theme
at both services. He always chooses top
ical subjects for his sermons, and the
Vanderbilt weddings in New York sug-
gested the subject for to-day.
Tn the accounts of those great we'd
dings I'm New York this week" the
preacher went on, everything seems to
have been lost sight of except the for4
tunes the wives brought their husbands
When these Americans want to marry
they don't say, Who shall 1 marry?' but
How much? Everything else is of Sec
ondary importance to The dollars.
I'VE are nearly as bad here but not so
frankly money worshippers.
''It is a singular, sad fact that but for
immigration the original settlers of Amer
lea would now be extinct. IL is the same
with the great Latin races, where dollar
worship also ruled supreme This adora-
ton of money is a sure sign of national
decay.
UNLESS these American couples have
something to fail back upon beyond the
money, their lives will be blasted, their
homes miserable. their old age cherries"
The preacher then branched off into 9TH
er topics the personal note running
through everything.
The Rev Mr.. Garlic, the vicar of ST.
Mary-at-H Hill, is a revivalist. His church.
slit ated near the Billingsgate fish market
draws most of its congregation from that
locehty ard makes up in earnestness what
it lacks in smartness.
His services are unique. He takes
trombone with him into the pulpit, and
when the singing becomes spiritless he
livers il up with a few blasts on that in
strument.
During the greater part of the service
the church is darkened and the hymns
