 the Great Magnate's.

When Charles M Schwab. president of the Carnegie Steel company at the age of 32. was placed in charge of the Homestead plant-then the larges, steel plant in the world-he found one or the departments in charge of his younger brother, who also had worked up from the bottom. As soon as things had settled down and he had graspei all the details of the business. Mr. schwab sent for his brother and said
 Tt so happens that have come into controlling position. You have not. Hereafter, no matter what are your merits your chance of advancement and promotion will be very poor. If you are put ahead, no matter how mer- itorious such promotion may be. every body will say: It Is because of your brothers position The very best thing you can do is 10 get out and start all over again somewhere else.
 The younger Schwab required only a moment to make up hs mind.
 TAI! right" he said, ''l will go. but the time will come when you folks will he mighty glad to have inc back" The brothers. who are great chums, shook hands warmly and the younger started out with nothing except the prestige of having been five years with the Carnegie company. and of having worked his way unaided to the head of one of the big departments. This record was sufficiently strong to pro cure him at once an opening in one of the rival concerns-the Midvale Steel company. Inside of two years he had worked his way up to be general man ager, and he made himself felt as the most active competitor of the Carne- gle company
 So strong did he become Tn this posi- ton that the condition he had prophe- sled came 10 pass. The Carnegie com pany. through H. c. Prick. who was then president, made him an offer of a partnership to come back. After some deliberation he accepted the offer. and he Is now the general manager of one of the main Carnegie plants.--Ssturday Evening Post.

WHIRL OF THE WORLD.

One of the local councils in a district of Vienna has directed all women fre- quenting the public parks and gardens under their Jurisdiction to hold up their skirts if they would otherwise trail upon the ground The rotice states that these inclosures are devoted to the recreation of persons desirous of escap- ing from the dusty town. and therefore the authorities object to the dust being swept into heaps by the trailing skirts.
 Even so far back as the reign of Ed ward l long trains were de rigeur. This is what one of the monks says: '1 heard of a proud woman who wore a white dress with a long train. which. trailing behind her raised a dust even so far as the altar and the crucifix But as she left the church and lifted up her dress on account of the dust a certain holy man saw the devil laugh ing. He asked him the cause and the devil replied: "A companion of mine was just sitting on the train of that woman, using it as a chariot but when she lifted it up my companion was shaken off into the dust, and SO laughed. Evidently the local coun- cils in Vienna are somewhat antlquated in their notions.
 Marriage by advertisement seems to be much in favor in Vienna A diligent inquirer has counted no jess than 59S matrimonial advertisements in the two leading middle class papers of that city in the course of a week. It is only the middle classes who arrange their mat rimonial affairs in this way, and it Is curious to notice that the number of women who advertise is almost equaled by the number of men. The compiler of this list makes some sad reflections upon the lev!ty and venality of the age Young men and young women, he says, are no longer ashamed to regard them selves as objects of merchandise. which may be put up to the highest bidder.
 Not long ago an official receiver ad- ministered the bankrupt estate of matrimonial agent. The official locked hls office door one Sunday morning, built an enormous fire, and burned a great box of letters addressed to the agent. His duty compelled him to read these letters. and he stated subseuuent- ly that the majority were genuine. that most or them came from women, and a considerable number of these form ladies evidently of education. Many had small incomes but complained that the young men of their own class would not marry them, because their means were so limited They were willing to marry outside of their class" if they could be brought into contact with re- spectacle men, strangers to their own neighborhood. Dover 500 letters were substantially of this nature.

A negro recently died at Atchison. Kan. and there was great curiosity to hear what the minister would say in his sermon, as the dead man had fre- quently been invited to join the church and refused. The parson said: "Is this man lost? I don't know, but I do know that If he is lost I didn't lose him"

HOW ABOUT THE MUD.

At the city council meeting last
night steps were taken looking to the
purchase of the site for a city hall.
Kalispell needs such building and
needs it bad. There are, however
things worse needed, and one of them
is some action looking to such street
improvements as will do away with
some of the mud. For almost a month
past the streets have been in a fright
full condition, and the crossings have
for the most part, been submerged in
from two to six inches of thin mud,
good enough in it's place, but mighty
disagreeable to walk in. Doubtless
most of the citizens of this city would
be content to wait awhile for the city
hall and have the mud problem dealt
with first.

Application for pardon for John B.
Welcome by his new friends, his old
friends and some who at one time were
not his friends, has been turned down
by the supreme court. The reason
given. by implication, is that John B.
has not applied for the pardon in his
own proper person. The court does
not say that it will grant the applica-
ton even though John B. should ap-
ply in person, but the intimation is
that such an application would receive
more serious consideration than the
one just turned down. Now that the
person in whose interests he commit.
ted the offense resulting in his disbar-
ment has been permitted to take his
seat, John B. might be able to make
promise of reformation in all sim
cerity. But the court has intimated
that repentance must precede forgive
ness and reinstatement and until John
B. evinces a willingness to "fess up"
and apply in person for reinstatement,
he is likely to remain in the ranks of
the outsiders in the legal profession.

Trifling With the Ladies.

There are legislative tricks that the
women suffragists in Kansas are now
learning about, and the knowledge
makes them sad. Hundreds of ladies
sat in the gallery of the Kansas sen

the lawmakers pass a complete wo

ladies the presidential and all other
ballots went through the honorable
senate like small boy trough a quar-
ter section of mince pie. It was two
thirds majority, and as the senate adj
journed, the ladies' crowded around
and smiled on the solons with those
smiles that break a legislator right
down.
But the story of the perfidy of the
Kansas senate must be told. The

away, thinking themselves perfectly
safe. the senators reconsidered the
vote and killed the bill deader than a

story more racy and salaciOus, the
preacher, with the true Parkhurstian
instinct, made statements which any
citizen of Kalispell who has made the
rounds of which he related, knows
to be grossly untrue. l have no de-
sire to defend vice beyond acknow-
lodging the right of anyone twenty
one years of age to go to church or
concert hall. as he sees fit, but l do
object to a mouthy pulpiteer misrep-
resenting his fellowmen and women
for the purpose of working up maud
lin sentiment in behalf of a bunco
purity crusade. The assertion that
he (Morris) at any time saw "hund-
reds of men and women and a few
prostitutes, all stupefied with liquor"
in any concert hall in this town is an
unvarnished fabrication. venture
to say that in no concert hall in this
city can Rev. Morris or any other man
go and pick out three men or women
who are "stupefied with liquor" at any
hour of the day or night.
The discourse Sunday night had all
the elements of 1.-The sounding brass
and the tinkling cymbal." 1t was large
ly untruthful, wholly uncharitable and
unchristian, and abounded in referen.
ces that would bring the blush of
shame to the face of any pure-minded
woman or girl. Talk about danger to
youth! l venture to say, Sir, that not
all the dives and gambling houses in
Kalispell or in Chicago are half so
dangerous to youth and innocence as
one such preacher as Rev. Morris re-
lating from the pulpit .his midnight
experiences in the haunts of vice.
Why were the young men so eager to
hear? Was it that they might in
form themselves of the dangers that
beset them? Or was it because they
expected to hear something rich, rare
and racy?
I regret, Mr.. Editor, that you have
seen fit to give such an immoral and
harrangue as mid
night Scenes in Kalispell," space in
the columns of your paper. To my
mind such a portrayal of the brothels
and gambling dens does more harm
than all the dens of vice that could be
placed in mile square. 1t takes vice
to hunt vice, and none need be unwill-
ingly contaminated in this citv unless
indeed, some innocent-minded boy or
girl have his or her ears assaulted with
lurid word pictures of depravity from
