Poor Boy In America,

Thomas Upton, who, with his Sham

Americas Cup back to England, is
without doubt one of the greatest
characters of the century. Be it vic
tory or defeat his effort will cost him
not less than $1,000,000, and when
asked the other day whether it would
be his last attempt, he replied:
mot if can get anybody to build
me boat. The Shamrock and Sham
rock H., represent the best effort of
the two best boat-builders in Great
Britain. If they fail what am to
do?"
He continued: II believe the next
cup race, the one after this, will show
a new departure in cup races. be-
lieve and hope they will be more prac-
ticable boats. AS it stands now, q cup

as much as we had anticipated. We

In despotic Russia and impoverished

it may be. Here is found the glory
of public library in a free republic

the people and for the people. The

libraries of these cities and sees now

a dead pile. There is nothing in it
that can ever make him wiser or bet.
ter. American public libraries, like
other American institutions are great
suns casting their light in all direc'
tions and accessible to the poorest
Hence it would be safe to say that
Akron's public library as a source OF
public enlightenment counts for more
than all the millions of books on the
dusty shelves of Europe. Between
the public library in a European
monarchy and an Ohio fountain of
light that goes by that name there is
no comparison.

ant for rice grower in South Carolina.
In a few years he had saved up
money enough to return to Glasgow,
where he started a small store, using
some Yankee IDEAS in advertising.
Once he rented drove of hogs and
had them driven through the streets
bearing signs reading Going to Lip
TOMS" He also hired a tall, slim fel'
low to carry a sign reading Going to
Lipton's," while behind him came a
fat-man as broad as he was long, and
his banner read, I've Been To Lip

From this one shop branched the
thousands which now dot England,
Ireland and Scotland. He is rated
at between $2O,O00,000 and $50, 600,
although his total fortune is doubtless
much greater than this. He is a
bachelor, and lives quietly in little
place known as Osidge, in Hertford'
shire, IL miles from London, He
keeps 18 horses, most of them Ameri-
can bred trotters. He believes in
practical charity, and has given for
tunes to the needy poor. He was the
founder of the Alexandria Trust, named
in honor of Her Majesty which was
organized to give poor people good
food at the least price. The Queen is
