WHEN MEN MISS SUCCESS.
Idlosess and Incompetency Keep the
Business Novice Down.

Business Novice Down.
Walter p. Phillips, the founder Of
the national newsgathering corpora
tion known as the United Press, and
the inventor of Phillips telegraphic
code, typical, energetic American,
who has put many young men in the
newsgathering business, believes that
the cause of failure everywhere among
young business beginners lies in in
competence. NinGAenthS of the young
men who are struggling for name
and place in the world are untitled
for the callings they have picked out
for themselves. Besides an unlimited
supply of energy and whole-hearted-
ness in the work before him, the sue
cessful man OF the future must know
his business from A to u. The next
greatest drawback to success is idle
ness. Nothing worth while is accom-
plished without work. and plenty of
it. Things do not happen without a
cause, and behind every great life
there are years of concentrated energy
and tireless industry. Idleness will
make any man a failure; intelligent
work will land any man among the
successful 1t is all so simple and so
trite that one hesitates to put the fact
down in cold blood, and yet how few
men recognize or, recognizing, live up
to the axiom, that labor conQuers all
things! ldleness and the conscious
ness of incompetency should make any
man ashamed of himself and drive
him to do something that is worth the
10 to 1T l,n .f
one to learn some one thing that will
yield both pleasure and profit. Sue
cess comes only to those who seek it.
The young man who is really in
earnest will not have to be advised
how to succeed. He may learn much
by studying the failures of others,
however, and he will always find, after
survey of the great legion of the un-
successful, that two causes have
brought them to their present misery
-idleness and incompetency.-Sat
day Evening Post.

The colonel nodded assent, and the
other officers now Joined in the con-
versation. The subject was discussed
in all its bearings. If these cases were
really the first in an impending cpl
demic, the matter was very serious.
At last Maxwell took his leave; but.

friend. who was standing silently at
the window.
DO you still persist in your re-
solve?" he asked, under his breath.
Certainly. AS soon as | get my
leave l shall ride over"
And perhaps be shot on the way.
Good luck to you!"
Thanks for the kind WISH said
William, angrily. Perhaps it will lie
fulfilled"
Hardly. Men who, like You, are
forever butting their heads against u
wall, generally have uncommonly good
fortune. Where the rest of us crack
our skulls, they push the stone apart.
Farewell Will"
He left the room. Doctor Maxwell
did not spoil his friend by pretty
speeches; that was evident He took
leave of the young officer who might
perhaps be shot on the way" as care
lessly as if there was nothing in pros
pect save an ordinary ride. William
scarcely needed it; his mind was filed
with other thoughts, and he availed
himself of the first pause in the con-
versation to approach the colonel and
request brief private interview.
Burney opened the door of "a small
room adjoining, and the two men en-
tered.
We'll. Lieutenant Roland. have you
anything important to ask?" said the
colonel, when they were alone.
Il merely wished to request a short
leave of absence" replied the young
man, with apparent calmness. There

me-"
And which you can arrange while
on the march?''
AT least hope so. l intend to visit
relatives who live on plantation only
a few miles from here. l have just
learned that l was in their immediate
neighborhood."
The request was not singular, and
was easily granted, yet something in
the young mans face attracted the
colonel's attention, and he inquired:
What is the name of the plantation
you desire to visit?"
William hesitated a moment, then
slowly answered:

Burney started.

Eastern Nevada Leads.

A gentleman whose business keeps
him continually moving over the State
remarks that the eastern part of Ne
vada is moving away from the west in
a mining way. mot because the east
has better mines or more of them he
said, ''but because they seem to handle
them better. In the first place the
miners Of the eastern and southern
part of Nevada are, as a rule, better
miners than you have in the west for
they have had a more varied expert
ence. Again the owners Of the claims
there are constantly shipping ore
sometimes in small quantities. but al
ways shipping some, and this gives
them a little capital to work on. In
the west here every man has a mine
but no mar is shipping ore. You
seem to be all waiting for someone
with money to buy your undeveloped
claims.-Carson News.

her remains were followed to the grave
by nearly every Indian resident of
Clover and Wells and a few white
friends. The funeral service was con-
Quoted by Harry Preacher and. it is
said, was very impressive.
The cortage from the Indian resi-
dence to the graveyard was large. and
at the grave hats were removed and all
bowed their heads during the service,
and chanted their funeral odes in uni

The silent form Of the girl was neat
