1 MT. Carnegie's magnificent gift for
 the benefit of the workers who helped
 him make his money has called atten- tion to the cheering fact that there are others in this country who are not un- l mindful of their "help." Dr. William H. Holman, secretary of the League for Social Service points out that while employers who care enough for their employees to enter upon systematic work for their social benefit are the exception rather than the rule. yet their ranks are
 growing yearly. Among the manufact-
 urers who have done so are the Vest
 inghouse Air Brake Company, of Will
 merding, Pennsylvania; Patterson
 Brothers (National Cash Register Com-
 panyy of Dayton, Ohio; the Cleveland
 Cliffs Iron Company, of Cleveland;
 Walter w. Law, of Briarcliff Manor,
 New York; J. H. Williams & Co.,, drop
 forgers of Brooklyn; Sherwin- Williams
 Company, paint makers, of Cleveland
 Ohio; West & Simons, of Port Chester, New York; Northwestern Grass Irvine Company, of St. Paul, Minnesota; Lud- low Manufacturing Company, of Lud- low, Massa chusetts; Francis D. Moul- ton & Co, of New York; Nathaniel Witherell, of Greenwich, Connecticut; Gilreath Coal and Iron Company, of Birmingham. Alabama, and the Ply mouth Cordage Company, of Plymouth, Massa chusetts; and among the retail CTS are Wanamaker the Siegel-Cooper Company, Stern Brothers Blooming dale, Macy, Heinz and a score of oth- CTS. Then there are the railroads like the New York Central the Baltimore and Ohio, the Pennsylvania and oth- CTS.
 Perhaps by and by considerate and humane employers will be the rule rath- CT than the exception. It seems to be certain that interest in work by em- ployers for the benefit of employees is growing. At public dinner to be giv en in Madison Square Garden Concert Hall on March 2e by the Get Together Club prominent business men from all over the country will discuss it, and im- portant and instructive utterances may he expected

1 highwaymen get over S1,000,000 q year from the more or less unsuspecting
 public This is exclusive of the thefts
 of horses, carriages, wagons, and bicy-
 cles-a sum which may nearly approach the other Both estimates are based on the police reports for the year 1900. In
 that year there was marked decrease over the year before, and as compared with the hard times of 1896 there was a falling off of more than one half. For 1900 the police reported $319,341 worth of portable miscellaneous prop erty stolen, but this is believed to be grossly short of actual losses. Many thousand dollars worth of property stolen by thieves is not of value enough to make the individual loser seek the police with his story, and many other thousands taken is in money, and has been abstracted under circumstances which will not admit of complaint by the victim.
 Perhaps $10000,000 is actually stolen in this country in the course of a year, and many more millions are con veyed"

 The fruit of Ronda are proverbial for their excellence, and the climate for it's salubrity.Its isolated position has pre- served for it's inhabitants not only the Arab type of features, but those fierce passions which matured under the burning sun of the east, have descended with undiminished violence through thirty generations. The men are re- markable for stalwart forms and st- newy limbs, the result of plain food and mountain exercises. The women, with olive skins and languishing eyes, are coquettish to the last degree; and while their faces cannot by any stretch Of imagination be called beautiful, their superb forms realize Hogarth's ideal of feminine perfection. Large families are the rule in this part of the world, twenty to twenty-five children being not uncommon.

MORE BrG BENEFICFNCE.

 Another explosion of beneficence by MT. Carnegie, and big one too This time it is an offer of $5,200,000 for the purpose of establishing sixty-five branch libraries in New York city. As
 this offer provides that New York shall furnish the sites for and provide is possible that there may be some de- lay in accepting it. There shouldn't be.
 It is the biggest thing of the kind and
 the best thing, and New York should hasten to make itself the City of
 Libraries.
 What more has the surprising Mr.
 Carnegie got up his sleeve? Has he
 provided for the placing of $5,000,000 or so a day until his fortune is down to
 where he will not feel disgraced to be found dead with it? He can give away
 S5,000,000 day for many days without making himself poor man if he wants to, and if he wants to prolong the blessedness of giving he can give for many years in very generous fashion. It is very encouraging that while we have the trusts apparently about to gobble up the earth we have Car negie who is doing on a great scale the opposite to that which they are doing. The value of his example cannot now be estimated, but it will probably be very great. It may in time leaven the whole lump.

It is related that Justice Harlan of the United States Supreme court and an Episcopal clergyman of the national capital were playing game of golf re- gently at Chevy Chase, wk~-e Justice Harlan, after a particularly long drive, turned to his clerical opponent and told him to better that if he could. The churchman teed up his ball with care swung his club two or three times to Timber for big drive and then swung at the ball with all his might. The head of the club famed the air, leav- ing the ball tantalizingly on the tee. Without word, but with face full of expression, the dsgruntled clergyman looked at his legal opponent for fully a minute and then swung again. Well" said Justice Harlan, that was the most profane silence I ever heard.'

The cost of being world-power is H. frustrated in the new naval estimates of the United Kingdom for 901-02 of $154,377,500 on top of army estimates of $439,575,000. The new shipbuilding pro- gramme calls for thirty three new ves- sels, of which three are to be battle ships and six armored cruisers, as large and efficient as battleships Some 3,75O men are added to the navy, bringing its effective personnel up to 107,S0O. As the army now contains 450,o0o men in the field in addition to the native troops in India and elsewhere, the actual fighting force of the empire is now considerably over 50O,000 men.

Senator Hoar says concerning ex- President Harrison: After he left the presidency I wrote him, urging him to accept a seat in the Senate, which his State would have offered him. As re- member his reply he stated his strong desire for rest and for the quiet of fam lily life. and also seemed to think it un- becoming that person who had held the office of the presidency should en- gage afterward in the strife of party politics., I think this was great mis- take and the decision a public misfor- tune If MT. Harrison had been in the Senate during the last six years we should have been, in my opinion, saved from great misfortunes and great mis- takes"

After an experience of five years Minnesota has repealed the law which provided that a rebate should be given on road taxes for each vehicle with wide tires. The law failed entirely of its object-the maintenance of good roads. When tax settlements were due farmers would demand rebates for wagons that had never been used on the roads, and the road fund was mulcted of money that might otherwise have been used for construction.

fell with crash. As soon as the ne
groes could dissntsDgle themselves the

crushed his skull. There were several
bruises on his body and his leg was
