dation with the Frick interests he Is
said to have cleared upward OF $685.
000.0 600. His income In 1900 has been
many millions more than In 1899. yet
his benefactlons show an Increase OF
s2.000.000. Carnegie's total benefac-
tions In the last thirty years are est-
mated at sl7 .000. 900. In the year 1888.
Carnegie gave to libraries. educational
and charitable Institutions about s5.-
100000. He also increased the wages
OF his men twice. but that is a matter
OF business which he keeps entirely
separate from his private accounts.
Tho increases In wages meant $1,000
900 less income for himself. Tho chief
aim of Carnegie's philanthroplcai work
has been to educate the masses. His
money has gone TO found public IL
brarles. public baths. colleges and In
the encouragement OF music and fine
arts. Early this year Carnegie gave
out his own estimate OF his wealth.
His own valuation of his interests In
the Carnegie Steel company was Sl4s.-

conservatively estimated at 20.0O0. 900.
making a total. according to his own
estimate OF sle6. .250. 900. At the Same
time that Carnegie gave out his own
estimate OF his fortune. Frick declared
Carnegie's income to be S2G 1857 500
from the steel company alone. This
was Just before the great consoiida-
tion. when Frick and Carnegie were
bitter enemies. Friek then declared
that the total profits OF the company
for the fiscal year would amount to
S4o.o00,000. There was but ono man in
America whose income Is estimated as
larger than Carnegie's. This man is

timated at SsO,ooO.ooO for the year 1900.

isaiiy Illustrated.
The recent death of one laundress
and narrow escape OF another through
the breathing Of the escaping gases
from laundry stove in which there
was a coke fire. both Of them overcome
while awake and working and in
large room full of doors and windows,
recalls the graphic account given by
DR.. A. e. Miller of the wholesale
poisoning which occurred by this
same gas. carbon mon-oxide. at the
Snaefell mining disaster. A rescuing
party was overtaken by the gas and
one of their number kept writing a
description of his sensations as long
as his pencil would trace the words.
He wrote:
I'VE all sat without moving or try
ing to escape; the foot of the ladder
was close by yet none of us made any
effort to go to it and ascend even
single rung. We none of us tried TO
walk a dozen steps. which would have
led us to the other side of the shaft
partition, where we all knew there was
a current OF better air."
The poisonous gases in these cases
were carbon mon and dioxlde. chiefly
the former, both OF which are pres
ent in ordinary Illuminating gas, says
the New York Times. The carbon
mon-oxide, which is present in the So
called water gas (which has largely
replaced the old-fashioned coal gas In
the large cities) to the extent OF 20 or
30 per cent. Its insidious and para
lying nature may be seen from the
way in which the rescu!ng party sim
ply sat down and waited for death.
when a few steps would have saved
them, and in the fact that two able
bodied. healthy women were overcome
while wide awake and not six feet from
several doors and windows. The dan
gerous stealthiness Of this gas seems TO
be due to its gradual combination
with the haemoglobln of the b!ood
(which is the agent carrying oxygen
to the tissues and removing the waste
carbon dioxlde). into very stable
compound.so stable.in fact,that 1t pre-
vents the usual absorption OF oxygen
In the lungs and thus really brings
about an asphyxiation of the tissues.
II is the poisonous gas given on from
burning charcoal. which is sometimes
used for suicidal purposes.
