INVENTION rs own REWARD

There are no patents on nv air shin
says NJ. Santos-D umont I'm he New
York World, because it Is not necessary
that commercialism should enter into
its development. TO q certain extent
the motives which impel me toward
more complete solution Of the problem
of aerial navigation are phi%lanthropic.
The more limitations the better, If they
benefit humanity.
When an imitatOr improves upon nm
original which has been created for the
good Of the world, the originator Is full
filling his mission. He should rejoice
that 1t has been his privilege so to HELM
his fellow beings. If he Is In need OF
financial reward for his labors. II Is
right that he should have It to a com
Portable extent. 1t does not seem quite
human or Just that men should study
out inventions for gain alone. That
statement In itself, though, may be an
injustice.
A successful inventor has always
with him the supreme knowledge that
he has conquered something. How II
comes about matters little. One or
many Of natures forces respond to the
Efforts OF his hands and brains. That
response may yield him mountains of
gold, It may set him IN a pinnacle to
dwell forever in the eyes of the world.
yet he VIII never know a purer happi-
ness than that which came with the
first clear conviction that he has not
only accomplished his aim, but has
won o in the race Of progress as
wei. The nor humanity gains from
MS toll and patience, the greater his
JOY. Therein lies the satisfaction Of in
vention. The serious purposed inven-
tor Is a man Of whom 1t can be said:
Dame Nature clasps hands with MIN
IN token of good fellowship" In his
hours Of patient striving she whispers
solutions of his dearest problems; all
that she has is his; she gives her coun-
sci freely, and stands ready to deliver
into his leash and harness all her
forces.
Aerial navigation is an accomplished
fact. It's universal adoption will do
much to lessen the discomforts of
travel. Before many years have passed
not only airships, but flying machines
will be in general use. 1t is my belief
that the day is not far distant when a
flying machine will be no more a lux
ury than a bicycle or a carriage. Then
we shall have no more %suffOcating,
OvercrOwded railway cars, but swift
journeyings through the air by means
of machines which respond readily to
intelligent guidance.

The most modern thing about the
Courant was its effort at accuracy. At
that time various weekly papers were
in existence, but their news was of no
unreliable a character that the jour
nails became a byword for i%naccuracy.
The Courant scopaed these methods
and the evils Of subsidized comment,
and. in its clean character as we'll as
in its very existence, opened a new era
in news dissemination.
The proprietor Of the Courant was
one E. Mallet, and it was he that hrst
showed the practicability Of his own
excellent conception Of a clean news
paper. Samuel Buckley bought the
Courant on April I29. 1902, and added
advertisements, consisting chiefly Of

During the war between the United

that the S%paniaTds might cut him

Novels Of B%abylonian life are not rare,
but hitherto no writer Of fiction has ven
tured beyond the shallow depths Of the
classical legends which formerly were
taught as "Assyrian history" This
argues a lack OF enterprise or originality
IN the noyelists. as the fund Of material
that has been gathered since Bottq
struck the first pick into the ruins OF
Sargon's palace IN 1870 Is ample and var
led enough for either history or romance.
A new writer. Josiah M. Ward, is to
strike out into deeper water. and take
his readers back into the times Of Neb-
uchadnezzar and the last days Of Nine
veh. The title Of his book. Come with
Me into Babylon" Is a pleasant promise
which challenges attention. One expects
something more than a glimpse into the
lives of the Babylonians. whose name
has come to be a %ynonyTn of luxury and
wantonness. Those were heroic days re-
ally. when the greatest nations OF that
remote antiquity. the Babylontans. Modes,
Lydians and Egyptians, met over the
carCass of Assyria and engaged in that
fierce struggle for the mastery of the
world.-Leslie's Magazine for May.

Thousands of crystal pendants,
some as white as alabaster, others
with a golden tint, seemed to be try
ing to outsparkle one another in the
candle light. The walls, in places,
glistened with their beautiful deco
ratiOns.
From this beautiful crystal palace
the explorers proceeded to the low
er chamber. THEE ladders were
dashed together and lowered into the
hole, but it was found that they were
too short by at least forty feet. The
chamber is about eighteen feet
square. and it's walls perpendicular,
as though squared by expert marble
cutters. It's color is that of the ma

It is a characteristic Of this cave
that the brilliant white crystal deco

ground. which serves to enhance their
beauty. In picking off specimens the

BOYS IDEA OF HIS SWEETHEART

Az Dainty a Compliment as One Could
Desire.
A young matron who lives In a
washington apartment house with her
little daughter is viewing with great
interest a courtship going on under
her very eyes. The daughter. Naomi,
is the most engaging, dignihed and
dutiful little girl Of IL ever seen in
that part of the city across the creek.
So she has been taken by her mother
to call upon a great many older per
sons, and has made the acquaintance
Of numerous boys Of fifteen or there
abouts. Not long ago q Of these
boys came to see his friends mother
very formally and sat and talked with
her until the tensity Of a formal call
nearly burst his jacket. Then he arose
and with a polite bow asked for a
portrait Of the little girl. The matron
demurred. Of course.
WELL said the young suitor' n
YOU will give me a good picture OF
/ Naomi I will give you back a picture
I have already. It isn't a good one at
an. But I'll give It back to you for
a better one"
The mother was greatly mystined.
She decided after awhile that the boy
has photographed her little girl on
the sly. and IN order to md out she
sent him word that she would make
the exchange.
Next day there came to her door a
long box with a note on the outside.
II am greatly privileged to send you

The young matron opened the box

THE RICE MARKET.

Advices from the South note fair in
quiry along the Atlantic coast; prices
firmly maintained as the supply is linn
tied and easily placeable in the terri
tory tributary thereto. Then, again,
Carolina is "a good name to conjure
with" and commands relatively higher
prices for it's product. In New Orleans
and the Southwest there is slight
quickening; the movement the Iarg-
est the past four weeks, although still
short of the average of preceding ones
Some complaints are heard of dullness,
and yet the sales for the month were
up to the similar ones of 1901; and
this, with restricted movement for ex-
port and to the extreme West, which
CHANGED at such time last year to be
unusually large.
While prices are as previously quot
ed, there is strong undertone, which
indicates confidence, with probabilities
favoring hardening values. Forward
ward demand should prove to be of
equal or exceeding proportions. The
greatly enlarged consumption by rea-
son of the short potato crop together
with the call for Porto Rico, has thus
far enabled sales of more than the
whole crop of the previous season, and
there is no reason why there should be
any abatement or demand in the
months to come Then, to this may
be added an inquiry from the Pacific
coast; the sum of all will leave us an
amount to be marketed east of the
Rocky Mountains, by no means excess
sive, and it is possible may prove
short of actual requirements.
Gables and correspondence from
abroad note quiet conditions on Bur-
nah styles. First new crop samples
are not particularly attractive, but inn
provement is anticipated as season is
more advanced. Bengal styles are in
demand and are held firm, with up

STOCKS AND BONDS.
Pyrotechnic Flight of Ellen Feat
ure of the Day

New York, April 10.-There was a
very mild market for Louisville and
Nashville to- day, and the ominous
jumps made by the price in it's con-
vulsive advance to 120 this morning
aroused unpleasant memories of May
last year when Northern Pacific was
cornered, precipitating the severest
panic in the history of the Stock Ex-
change.
Many of the active operators in
Louisville and Nashville on the adj
vance have fostered the supposition
that distressed short interest was
aimed at by the campaign. The dis
position to buy stocks was suddenly
cooled and a preference for the SELL
ing side developed. The disposition
to sell was increased by another fur
ry in the money market during the
afternoon and the selling movement
spread through the list, carrying
prices of the active stocks very gener-
ally between l and points under last
night. Stocks which had been con-
spicuous for strength, notably South
ern Railway and Missouri Pacific, did
not escape damage to this extent. In
some cases the losses considerably ex-
of the prominent stocks continued to
show feverish strength rebounding
from each successive reaction. There
was some covering by professional
shorts before the close, but the sell
ing was actively renewed and the
closing was irregular and not far from
1he lowest.
The action of l.. and ". seemed to
indicate that a short interest in the
stock was feeling considerable distress
to maintain its position. The Wall
street supposition is plausible that the
disposition of the $5,0O0,000 new stock
authorized involved a short position in
the market technically, necessitating
the borrowing of the stock sold until
the Stock Exchange authorities admit
the new stock to the list. Reports Of
buying for control by competing COM
panies or of intended consultations
have all met with official denials
As tactical speculative measure for
melting speculation elsewhere in the
market, the wild movement in Louis

ization. Within three days the number
of shares sold has been many thous-
and in excess of the total capitalization
of the company. The highly specula-
tive character of the movement is
therefore clear. The dealings in South
ern Railway continued very large to-
day in accordance with the hypothesis
of a contest for control between the
two companies, but it made no great
progress upwards and shared in the
late reaction. The rise in Missouri Pa
cific was ascribed to pool operations,
based on the evident working out of
extensions for the Gould system.
The sensitive condition of the money
market was emphasized by to-day's
announcements of huge combination

taking by American capital to finance
