Responsibility of Riches.

Those who are poor are forever
signing for riches and those who
have riches, while they would not
willingly part with them, are al
ways complaining of the burdens
which riches impose. So neither
the rich nor the poor are altogether
happy, though, if the truth could
be obtained, it is probable that it
would be found that the poor have
more real happiness than the rich.
These remarks are suggested by
a talk of Charles NJ. Schwab, presi-
dent of the Billion Dollar Steel
trust, in his apartments at Paris
on Thanksgiving day. In the
course of his talk Mr.. Schwab said:
Wealth means responsibility, aud
the more wealth a man has the
greater his responsibilities are. OBJ
serve how the German emperor,
realizing his responsibility, works
incessantly."
Mr.. Schwab said that wealth
might make a mans path a little
easier provided he made a proper
use of it, and the proper use of it
means that it must be used altru-
istically and not selfishly. One of
the drawbacks of wealth mentioned
by Mr.. Schwab is the difficulty a
rich man has in getting rest and in
preventing his privacy from being
invaded. His wealth attracts at
tention and forces into the glare of
publicity aspects of his private life
that he does not care to have in
spected and commented on.
After all, the man that is nearest
being contented, and therefore the
is the one that has neith-
er too much nor too little; that has
just enough to meet his reasonable
wants and who has assurances that
he will not be deprived of this
during his lifetime.
His responsibilities and Worries are
reduced to ii minimum.

The threat of President Roose-
welt that he will appoint negroes
TO office in the north as well as in
the south will hardly be carried
out, for one or two such appoint
ments there will raise such howl
as will be decidedly unpleasant to
the present administration. 1t
may be shrewd political move to
keep the negro in party lines by
giving him an occasional office
here and there, but it will matter
very little with the white people of
the south what Roosevelt does in
the north, so long as the people of
the south keep right on voting the
Democratic ticket.

es sincere regret in noting the sur.

a hunt of which kind was recently
held near the town of Rome, in
lOneida county. In the in

the "side hunt" is regarded as great

We'are pleased to learn that sport
of this kind is unknown in Florida
so far as our information goes.
Southern sportsmen would scorn to
Indulge in such pastime.
The side hunt" is so called be-
cause a number of gunners are di-
vided into two sides or parties of
equal numbers. Sometimes a side
contains six or eight persons and
sometimes as high as twenty or
twenty-five. The hunt usually
extends over three days. Daring
this time every living bird or beast
not especially protected by law
that comes within the range of the
hunters is counted legitimate game.
The contest consists in seeing
which side can make, numerically,
the greatest killing. Sparrows,

And as Me-tha-nee, crying, "Tlutco,

ing all the village with a cry that the
woman had broken the image of his
god and was trying to escape punish

But she ran on until she came to the
edge of the cliff, where she faced the
rising sun, and, lifting up both her
hands, as one who prays to the heaven
ly gods, cried aloud once more, "TIutco,
save mel" And with that cry she leaped
out over the brink of the cliff.
Presently Quaco and the people of
the village reached the place from
which she had leaped, and they looked
down to see where Me-tha-nee had
been dashed to pieces. Far down they
saw what seemed great splash of
blood, and when they went down, clam
bering fearfully, and looked more close

image, and all his tribe wept aloud un-
til far into the night. But long after
all the others were wearied and had
fallen asleep, Me-tha-nee remained,
covering upon the clay floor of the
temple and weeping for Tlutco, until
even she was wearied and fell asleep.
She had slept until it was almost the
time Of sunrise, when she heard a voice
that seemed to come from the mouth of
the great stone image, saying, ME
tha- nee, go not from this house"
Now, Me-tha-nee feared that temple
because of Quaco, the priest, and she
only staid in it through that night be-
cause she thought that Tlutcos dead
body made it safe. So when she heard
the voice she trembled and listened.
Again the voice said, "Me-tha-n
go not from the house. Thou shalt be
the bride Of the gods"
At that she screamed aloud, "Tlutco,
save mel"
But as the dead body of TIutco did
not hear her cry, she sprang up from
the floor Of the temple. And immedi-
ately the stone image Of the god fell
down and broke, and Quaco, who had
hidden himself in it, rushed out upon
Me-tha-nee. She, finding that the
spirit of her bridegroom was not near
his body-or he would have answered
her cry-turned and ran toward the

In the Blue mountains of the island
of Jamaica, which is said to be the
most beautiful of the Antilles. spike Of
crimson flowers. Far up on the steep
sides Of that mountain gorge which
the Spaniards named Boca d'Agua you
may see these floral splendors blazing
out here and there against the deep
green's of the tropical foliage. The
flower is a miracle of beauty, seen in
its native surroundings, and the Ara
wax aborigines had a miraculous le-
gend of it's origin. The Arawaks Of
Jamaica are now an extinct race, but
the legend of Me tha-nee (Which name
means "The Mountains Pride') still
lives.
Me-tha-nee's father thought long
of Xamayca ('the Land of Many
Streams" in the Arawak tongue). When
she walked the mountain paths it was
as if young goddess had come down
to sport with mortals. The delicate
copper brown Of her skin flushed into
rich red whenever man looked at
her; her dark lashes hid and showed
her eyes like stars behind the clouds at
night; her jet black hair fell about her
like soft, glossy mantle. All this was
seen by young casique named Tlutco,
and his heart melted for love of Me-
tha-nee. Quaco, the ugly priest, had
also set his heart upon Met tha-nee,
and he tried to persuade her father
that she should become one of the
handMaids of the temple, to bring wa
ter from the river, sweep the smooth
clay floor, weave checkered mats, and
be always at the beck and call Of
Quaco.
Me-tha-nees's father thought long
about the matter, and decided to give
her in marriage to the young casique
whose arrows were the SWifteSt and
surest in all the mountains of Xamayca
and his canoe larger and better manned
than any other upon the shores of the
island.
So they made a great marriage feast
Of corn, agouti's flesh and fish, both
from the sea and from the great river
that ran through the valley below their
village, which is the valley called by
the Spaniards Boca d'Agua. Tlutco,
having sacrificed to the gods and feast
ed, sat in the circle of the chiefs, smok-
ing the great stone pipe, until near
sundown, Quaco being also in the cir
Gle.
And about sundown the bridegroom
suddenly cried: MY head is as If
had drunk the juice of maniac"
Upon this Me-tha-nee began to wall,
saying, "They have poisoned my BRIDE
groom" for she mistrusted Quaco. But
her father and the other chiefs quieted
her, telling her that Tlutco had only
smoked tobacco too much from the
great pipe.
Nevertheless, Tlutco died before the
sun had well set, and the marriage
feast was turned to mourning. They
laid his body upon a new mat in the
house Of the god, before the great stone

How to Carry a Train.

Is there anyone who can explain why
nine out of every ten women of the
day carry the trains of their gowns as
they do? There is such curious SINH
larity in the way they grasp their
skirts that one might almost think
there was school to teach the process.
The modus operandi is as follows:
The skirt is grasped firmly with one
hand and grabbed tightly around the
body, allowing on one side about three
inches of material to sweep the dust,
while on the other at least three inches
of hosiery is displayed, says the Phila-
delphia Telegraph.
This method is open to objection on
many scores. 1t is not graceful, it is
not thorough, and it is not very mod
est. 1t does not accomplish the object
for which it started out, if that object
was really to gather the folds of ones
costumes off the pavements, and not to
