Hal Never Failed.
No record OF industrial failure has
ever bsen entered against this man.
Everything he has taken hold OF has
resulted In great and undivided divl-
dends. For Senator Clark Is not a
head or part of a combine or corpora
tIon. He himself is the head. the
heart. the soul, the creator, tho dlrec-

Is a master Of details. a systematizer,

HIS successful business career.

the senator's from Montana is recog-
mixed In his affairs. No board Of d.

whole thing. II isn't so with Morgan.
Everything he Is connected with has

Strange
MAusOleUm
(Special LRtter.l

In civilization as we'll as In savagery
man has INDUCED weird fancies In his
ornsmentations Of the sepulchre. Even
In the most barbarous climes and
times much thought was given to en-
bellishments Of the graves Of beloved
dead. Many Of the wonders Of the
world have been sarcophagi.
The pyramids are but repositories
for the bones of Egyptian royalty; the
catacombs vast sleeping cars for the
Romans and early Christians last
dreamless slumber. Throughout the
world. by the side Of his arches Of tri-
umph, man has erected mausoleums
and tombs.
Less stress is today placed upon the
Importance Of the dead body; o
upon the living soul. A few people
even have become sufficiently emanci-
pated to forego the pitiful mite OF
worldly Immortality c~rystallized in q
fragment Of marble. and have had
their bodies consumed in the purifying
fire, leaving no damp or frozen mound
for their successors to hover near, add
ing to the great sense of loss the hor-
o Of disintegration.
But there still are erected countless
sarcophagi, at enormous cost and in
finite pains, to memorable q life and
a name. Love still stands weeping ut
the brink of a grave and invents
methods of calling the worlds atten-
ton to its W peculiar sorrow.
A Unique sepulchre.
In the heart of Vermont, in the shad-
ow Of the snow-clad or moss-mantled
Green mountains. stands q unique
sepulchre erected by devoted wealth,
ut the cost of many thousands Of dol
lars, called the Laurel Glen mauso-
leum.
Throughout that part OF New Eng
land known as the marble state. the
name of Cuttingsville stands only fOr
this m~ausOleum; the rude hamlet has
but one pride. distinction, II holds
a tomb! Is this symbolic Of a dying
state, whose population Is DESERVING
its hills and dales to help colonize the
whole country?

the quarry was to supply granite for
his New York mansion. Every piece OF
granite Is cut to At a certain place In
the growing palace In New York. The
quarrymen have the architects plans
to 60 by and each piece Of granite Is
numbered to correspond with the num-
Der In the specifications. The quarry
yields a beautiful white granite OF a
kind unlike any other In thu word.
One hundred skilled quarrymen with
compressed air drills carve out huge
slices Of this pure granite, each slice
being destined to ft n sp scifed niche
in the New York mansion. Seventy
Ave skilled stone cutters receive the
granite at Portland and chip the slices
into dressed condition. Then the
dressed slices IRE wrapped in bagging,
garnished with Stats and shipped by
train or boat to New York. Senator
Clark waited nearly two years for a
certain company to furnish the granite
and then brushed them aside, bought
u quarry adjoining the procrastinating
company's works and equipped It him

Cares NAught for Trusts.
1t Is said that the quarry owners

would pay the freight. But the mil

Value of south African Horses.

One OF the great lessons OF the Boer
war was to show the value Of the
South African horse. IL the Beers had
not been SO excellently mounted as
they were. on horses bred in the Trans
vaai, Orange Free State and Cape COL
ony. the war would have worn a DIFF
ferent aspect. The South African
horse can live on much less food than
an English horse; he does not suffer
from the climate; he does not tumble
into holes: he il sounder, Is more sen
sible and learns better to stand alone
without being tied up.

In the Carroll-Columbia contest both

CAROLS continued their good work and
won the second, with III pins to spare, but
they went back in the third, the Columbus
