Youngest Railroad President.

John Shelton Williams, aged So, is
the youngest railroad president in the
world. He is the head of the Seab0ard
Airline railway, aggregating nearly
3, 600 miles of tracks. He had to work
for his living while mere lad, and two
of the chief causes of his rapid promo
tion are his uncompromising integrity,
and his phenomenal capacity for hard
work. One of nine children-six
brothers, and three sisters-he entered
the banking house of his father, John
u. Williams, of Richmond, in his early
teens. With the assistance of bis
father, who left the University OF Vir-
ginia with his master s degree, the boy
compassed his own education in the
classics. He worked at night and into
early hours of the morning, and before
he had reached his majority, had
compiled manual for investors, which,
by reason of it's breadth, minuteness,
and completeness, attracted the atten-
tion of financiers in all the great cities.
From this time the banking house OF
John L. Williams & Sons, began to
grow, until it reached the eminent
place it now holds. Ofexcellent physi
cal build and power, Mr.. Williams still
turns night into day, his crowning per-
formance having been 80 brilliant as
to attract the wonder of financiers. In
the face of the strongest opposition he
has achieved in one year the physical
and financial consolidation of the Sea-
board Air Line, the Florida Central
and Peninsular railway, and the Geor'
gia and Alabama railway. OF which last
system be was president as early as
1895. AS result. new system, the
Florida and West India Short Line

of it's competitors by 100 miles. hal

The Scandal of President McKinleY's
Commissions

Not the least objection to the policy
tof expansion is the increase in the
Presidents patronage which it in
wolves. An overflOwing Treasury fill
led by unjust and unnecessary taxation,
stimulates all kinds of extravaganza.
Upon this subject the Philadelphia
Record says:
+ "Of not less that % separate commits
EsiOns created since the advent of the
|present Administration the aggregate
cost, at conservative estimate, has
been more than $1,000, 900 up to date.
The plea is made that the emergencies
of the wars with Spain and in the
Philippines made the expenditures for
those advisers of the President absO
lutely necessary. But it is plain that
some of these commissions haye merely
served as excuses for giving jobs to
|importunate favorites out of office.
The work for which these offices were
ostensibly created, however. could have
been better performed by the regular
machinery of the Government. Nearly
all of them have involved inordinate
cost for salary and perquisites. But
the people pay for these Governmental
luxuries out of Treasury surplus
gorged with unnecessary taxation,
and what's the odds?
1.-THE latest scandal that has crop
ped out of this system relates to the
American department of the Paris
Exposition. 1t appears from report
submitted by the President in answer
to a Senate resolution that Commits
sioner Peck and some of his subordi-
mates have made the most of their Op
portunity of farming liberal apprO-
priation. Up to December 81, 1889,
the expenditures amounted to nearly
$4OO, 900, of which $4,000 was for the
American building. Nearly all the
rest was swallowed up in salaries, per-
quisites. hotel bills, the pay of ser
wants, the hire of coaches, etc. OF the
expenditures since January l, 1900,
there is no official report, but it is
charged that they have been more ex-
travagant than were the expenses last
year.

Typhoid and Malarial Fevers Now
impossible at the Normal

To the Editor: 1t has come to IFS
from private source that DIR. Mclver
has visited Philadelphia and has bought
to be used in the State Normal College
water sterihZers.
For the last few years we have been
seeking on our own account perfect
and economical water siterihZer to use III
our own family. A little over a year
ago, our attention was directed by an
editorial in the Philadelphia Medical
Journal to a new sterilizer, which the
editor characterized as one of the great
inventions OF the century. We pur-
chased one and have been operating it
ever since. Before using il some member
Of the family was nearly always suffer
ing from some nlalarial trouble. Since
then there has not been a symptom Of
fever Of any kind
After a severe competitive test the
United States army has adopted >Shis
sterilizer to use in the army. Our sol
dread disease typhoid fever, if they will
use ordinary prudence and drink nothing
but sterilized water.
1t has been demonstrated time and
again that the typhoid bacillus was car
ried only in the drinking water. The
researches of Or. Lewis. the president Of
our State board Of health show that the
most frequent manner in which malarial
poison is carried into the human system
is through the drinking water. AT the
present stage of our knowledge, l think
we can confidently say that typhoid and
malalial fevers will doe impossible at the
Normal.
From my own practical experience
with the sterilizer l would not hesitate
to drink water that had been reeking
with the bacillus of typhoid before be-
ing sterilized by the instruments pur-
chased for the Normal
