Ruin to Young Men by the Periodical
Craze.

Ruin to Young Men by the Periodical
Craze.
From the Baltimore Sun.
There is no substitute for hard work in
winning success. There is always an ele-
ment of chance, but it is never the predom-
mating element. Chance simply presents
the opportunity, and opportunity is merely
vehicle for human endeavor. The man,
young or old, who thinks otherwise who
believes that 1t is luck alone that makes
riches, and ill luck that keeps men Door
starts out with a false notion. It is in
evitable that he should come to grief in the
scheme of life. The craze for speculation
that sweeps over the community now and
then grows largely out of the conviction
that success Is luck. Such a craze is more
injurious to the prospects of the young men
who are carried away by it than war or
pest1lence. 1t means not alone the loss Of
money, but the ruination of character II
leaves the victims standing on false plat
form. where they are consumed with de-
sire to get something for nothing, and lose
all appetite for hard work. 1t units them
for sincere effort, and almost without ex-
ception produces a decentralization that
blights their entire existence
Whether the young man who makes the
hrst speculative venture wins or loses the
result is equally bad If there is any Diff
ference at all, 1t is in favor of the man who
comes out a loser In the first venture With
him at least there Is a chance that he will
wake up to the hopelessness Of speculation
as means Of acquiring wealth, and that
the lesson taught will result In leaving him
useful working member of society instead
OF drone, who thinks that he NAV get
along by dipping into the honey-pots of
others. Now and then men arise who han
pen to make success of speculation who
make something out of nothing. These men
are so rare that the entire list may be
checked off on the fingers of two hands
unfortunately they are taken as fair exam
pies instead of extraordinary exceptions
Their names and fame are paraded in the
public prints and the public mind Is in
fiamed by chronicles of their successful ven
lures Ihat they stand as survivors of a
system that has wrecked thousands and
hundreds Of thousands is not taken into
account. The unfortunates who have gone
ooWn to ruin and beggary are never heard
OF. They are not interesting and their his
tory never finds the light Of day except
t Mnere, mere and there. one more desperate
than the rest puts an end to his existenco
under sensational circumstances.

From Our Dumb Animals.
Some time ago there was a shipwreck at
st. Margaret's bay, England. and the life
line brought sailor after sailor to shore
amid the cheers Of the rescuers. At last
only the captain remained on board. The
line was ready, the signal was given but
the answering jerk did not come. Again
and again. for quarter Of an hour, the
question passed along the rope without re-
ply. At last, when hope was nearly dead,
the signal came, and the captain was
hauled ripping ashore. He picked him.

from his breast pocket and set 1t tenderly
down. Then he looked round and said In
simple apology: II couldn't find the little
fellow anywhere. -

WHY sCHLEY IS Prosecuted.

What is the reason for the antlpRthy
of the naval ring at Washington to
Admiral Schley? There have been sew
eral stories advanced to account for
it, says the Savannah News. One
Of the latest of these is that Admiral
Crowninshield, the recognized head
of the clique, has a grudge against
Schley that is some years old, but
which he has never permitted to grow
cold. CrowninshieId was commander
of the Inflated Maine up to the time
Sigsbee was assigned to her. AID
m1raI Bunce filed the charge with the
department that Crowninshield had
neglected her coal supply. Crownln-
shield asked for a court of inquiry
Schley was president of that court
CrOwninshield was exonera ted, but il
is said Schley voted against him. For
that vote, the story goes, Orowninshleld
has harbored hatred against Schley
and never failed to strike him a blow
when the opportunity offered
