Why So Many Young Men Fail
Hetty Green Says the Scarcest Thing in the
World is a Thoroughly Reliable Man.

"One trouble with many young men
who start out in business is they try
to do too many things at once says
Hetty Green, "The Richest Woman
in America" in the June Laaies'
H0Me /0UrNaL "The result is that
they don't know as much as they
ought to about any one thing, and
they naturally fail. The trouble with
young men who work on salaries is
that they're afraid Of doing more than
they're paid for. They don't enter
into their work with the right spirit.
To get on and be appreciated young
man must do more than he's paid 10
do. When he does something that
his employer has not thought of he
shows that he is valuable. Men are
always willing to pay good salaries to
people who will think of things tor
them. The man who only carries out
the thoughts and ideas of another is
nothing more than mere tool. Men
who can be relied upon are always in
demand. The scarcest thing ir the
world to-day is a thoroughly reliable
man."

Side Path Law Unconstitutional,

Judge Simonton, of Harrisburg, has
declared the side path law passed by
the recent Legislature to be unconstl-
tutional The Dauphin county Com
missioners refused to take measures
to levy the tax, and were sued by the
side path commissioners, hence the
decision. In his opinion, which is the
first one handed down on the subject,
all the other judges in whose courts
suits have been brought having delay
ed expressing an opinion. Judge
Simonton says;
"The making and maintaining OF
streets, roads, sidewalks or sidepaths
of whatever kind, are certainly NUM-
cipal functions: one of the most I'M
portant duties of municipalities is tc
make ard maintain these; and If the
commission provided for in the act IN
question should exercise the powers
delegated to them by the act, they
would unquestionably be performing a
municipal function We cannot
doubt, therefore, that the act is re-
pugnant to the section of the Constl'
tuition above quoted."'

A SAD BEREAVEMENT.

Death of a Sister Of It. r. Hockok'
The body of Mrs Charles A. Jenni-
son of Natick, Mass, sister of Frank
lin K. Hickok, of the Hickok company,
manufacturers of the Century corset, at
II Center street, this city, was found
in Morse's pond, Wellesley, Mass, Sun
day afternoon, by citizens of that place.
At first it was supposed that Mrs. Jen-
nison had committed suicide, but at
present it is believed by her friends that
her death was due to an accident.
Mrs. Jennison, who was thirty-two
years of age, graduated from Wellesley
college In the class of 1890, being one
of the highest stand members Upon
leaving college she taught school until
year ago. Last January at her
brothers house, 211 Lombard street, this
city, she was married to G. A. Jennison,
a wealthy merchant of Natick, Mass.
After wedding trip, Mr.. and Mrs,
Jennison went to live at Natick.
1t was Mrs. Jennison's custom to visit
her alma mater quite frequently. Nat
lex is only three miles from Wellesley.
Therefore Mrs. Jennison's trips were
made without much ado or preparation.
Jennison started to make on Saturday
She did not arrive at the college. When
she did not return Saturday night, her
husband came to the conclusion that
she had decided to stay over night
with one of the teachers at the college.
The body was found near the shore
Sunday afternoon, and Medical Exam
liner Hodgdon of Dedham. who was
summoned, stated that the woman,
whose name at that time was not
known, met death but two hours be-
fore.
On a fine lace handkerchief was
found the name "Hickok," and engrav-
ed on the gold watch was the word
"Genevieve" Owing to the proximity
of Wellesley college 1t was at first sus-
pected that she was student there
and on inquiry 1t was found that the
name appeared on the records of the

| schools Principals are, in the opinion
| of this committee more essentially nee
essary than this particular supervisor,
! for they are the ones who are In daily
| touch with both teachers and scholars,
whereas the supervisor is not, and we
are also of the opinion that the princi-
| pals of the different schools, who have
some thirty to forty teachers to look
after, are better qualified to judge of
the efficiency of any of the teachers
under their care than this supervisor
The primary supervisor has, to the
best Of our knowledge some one hun
bred and thirty to one hundred and
forty teachers, and So per cent. OF all
primary scholars, who are in the four
lower grades, to look after, and as was
| testified both by the superintendent
and two members of the board of edu-
! cation, that thirty-five to forty teach
ers were a hardship for principal to
| look after. 1t must, in our opinion, be
still more difficult for the supervisors
to do their WORK properly with one hun
dred and forty teachers and So per
cent. of the scholars to look after, and
we are also Of the opinion that, when
girl graduates from the high school,
and after spending two more years in
the training school, that the instruction
received in these schools should be suffi-
cient, after passing a satisfactory ex-
animation, that such girls ought to be
competent to take charge Of q primary
class in our grammar schools, without
the assistance of a supervisor. And II
unable to fulfill such duties, it is no
credit. in our estimation, to the high
and training schools. We refer particu-
larly to the training for Dwight school,
where so per cent. of the teachers sal
aries are paid by the taxpayers and
we believe 1t an injustice to again tax
him two thousand more for super
visor to look after these teachers.
Tn closing this report your committee
would be false to their convictions If
they did not express their approval Of
the present school sysetm. We be-
lieve. however that in many ways
judicious economy might be exercised
without in any way Gripping the eff
cheney of the schools.
1t is very easy to expend money that
is drawn from the public treasury, and
by examination of the expenditures of
1898, fhe report Of 1899 not yet pub
lished) it is in our opinion not difficult
to find expenses that might be cut off
