practically completed its labors.
Nearly all of the remaining certifi
cateswere given out yesterday By
Secretary Riggs, the total number
being over 700. There are still re-

or other have not called for them
Clerk Riggs will still be in the
Office of the court todhy and prob
ably Monday, and expects to close
up the business OF tho commission

1t is gratifying, however, to know
that the Governor has given orders
that some action be taken. Bstter
late than never. AS to the difficulty
in getting evidence, which, under
the circumstances, seems somewhat
surprising at this distance, why not
try the "water cure" plan? We
presume that method of obtaining
information should be as American
in Illinois as in the Philippines.

"The anti-negro crusade did not
assume serious proportions until
April. Since then negroes who
have lived nearly all their lives in

never been complaint, hava been
compelled to sell their homes at a
sacrifice, abandon their crops, leave
their jobs and seek homes else
where. The public school has been
closed, the pupils having been
driven out of sown. The Edorado

which have been agreed upon by both
houses, or are in conference, aggregate

the disposal of the president and other
officials who are to constitute the
board of control.
The ship subsidy bill is still pending
with an outside chance of passing the
house. That would add s50,000,000 to
the appropriations The public build
ings bill with nearly $20,000,O 900 pro-
vided for postoffices and custom-ho
in various parts of the country, has
been reported to the senate. The
Pacific cable bill, carrying between
$4,000, 900 and $1S,000,000, is pending
in the house and such a bitter and
fight is being made in
its behalf by Representative Corliss
and Others that it may be given the
advantage of a special rule to insure
its passage.
IN addition to these measures there
are hundreds of others pending which
carry smaller appropriations, but
which in the aggregate will mount up
to an enormous sum.

Carnegie Tells How To
Succeed.
"BOYS GET MARRIED"
Is Fund.- mental Suggestion
Contained In Book just ls-
sued BY the Great
Philanthropist.

"The Empire of Business" is the
name of a 345 page book by Andrew
Carnegie, which will be placed in cir
culation by the public library soon,
Carnegie gives boys little fatherly
advice in the book, as follows:
Assuming that you have all OBJ
tanned employment and are fairly well
started, my advice to you is, Aim
high. l would not give a fig for the
young man who does not already see
himself the partner or the head of an
important firm. Do not rest content
for a moment in your thoughts as head
clerks or foreman. or general manager
in any concern, no matter how ex-
tensive Say to yourself, My place II
at the top. Be king in your dreams.
Make your vow that you will reach
that position, with untarnished rep
utation, and make no other vow to
distract your attention, except the
very commerdable one that when you
are member of the firm, or before
that, If you have been promoted two
or three times, you will form anoth-
er partnership with the loveliest of her
sex. The liability there is never limit
ed.
THE rising man must do some
thing exceptional, and beyond the
range of his special department. He
must attract attention.
"A shipping clerk, he may do SC
by discovering in an invoice an error
with which he has nothing to do, and
which has escaped the attention OF
the proper party. II weighing clerk
he may save for the firm by doubling
the adjustment of the scales and hav-
ing them corrected, even If this be
the province of the master mechanic
If messenger boy, even he can lay
the seed of promotion by going be-
yond the letter of his instructions to
secure the desired reply. There is nc
service SO low and simple, neither
is there any so high, in which the
young man of ability and willing dis
position cannot readily and almost
daily prove himself worthy of trust
and usefulness, and what is equally
important, show his invincible deter
mination to rise. Some day, in your
own department, you will be directed
to do or say something which you

the interest of the firm. Here is your
chance. Stand up like man and say
SO. Say it boldly, and give your rea-
sons, and thus prove to your employer
that, while his thoughts have been en-
gagged upon other matters, you have
been studying during ilours-when he
perhaps thought you asleep-how to
advance his interests. You may be
right or you may be wrong, but in
either case you have gained the first
condition of success; you have attract
ed attention.
"One false axiom you will often
hear, which l wish to guard you
against: Obey orders, If you break

rule for you to follow. Always breal,

With Her Elbow, Said
Cassalman,
TO PROVE CRUELTY
Upon the Part Of His Wife,
Called Him Derned
Devil" and Other
Pet Names.

The hearing of the divorce case of
Louis H. Casselman against Mary G.
Casselman was taken up by Judge
Amber Friday afternoon after the
conclusion OF the Barleyoung case.
Tho husband was placed upon the
stand and testified against his wife.
He claimed tfiat she became angry and
dissatisfied because he had met with
financial reverses and refused to treat
him as a wife should. His statements
We're of a general nature, in the main,
but he said she called him "a derned
devil" and few such endearing
names.
The charge was made that she had
struck him, and he testified that one
Sunday morning she kicked him on
the leg as she passed the chair where
he was sitting, and later lii the same
day hunched him with her elbow.
They were living at Hibbitts, in Car
roll county, at the time, and he con-
cluded to leave there and come to
Stark county. He admitted that he
had no house rented, but told his wife
that he was going to either Canton or
New Berlin. He was not sure which.
He said she refused to accompany
him. saying that she would 60 to her
fathers where she could have plenty.
| In the cross examination, Attorney
Eckley attempted to draw out of the
| witness some admissions as to certain
| financial transactions in which prop
erty which had been in his wife's namo
was transferred to his brother
Dwight. Later the plaintiff negotiated
the sale of the property, which was
in Carrellton, and cashed the checks
in Canton.
Great stress was laid upon this
transaction but the object has not yet
been made apparent.
Casselman admitted that he had lost
about $4,000 in his connection with the
Champion Pole & Shaft company, a
defunct corporation that has been in
the courts for some time past and has
been the cause of considerable litiga-
| ton.
Court adjourned until Monday morn
ing at O'CLOCK before the cross ex-
animation of the witness was com
pleted.

LOTS SELLING AT

Public Reailzs the Advantages
Of o Chance for Investment
and Homo Getting.

The demand for lots in the Airing
ton place in the southwest part of the
city, continues. AS the season advances
and work on the new industries pro-
crosses there is great inquiry for
homes and building sites, and the loca-
ton and advantages of Arlington at
onco suggest themselves to all who are
looking ont for a place to live or in
vest money where 1t will insure a
quicl; profit.
A number of new houses are being
erected and others are planned. Selec-
tons are being made of the best lots
in the present plat and it is the wise
person who gets upon the ground carly
and selects from the best.

and avenues has added to the appear
ance of the addition and quite little

manager of the land company
The work on the car works and gen.
eral Offices is being rushed and the
magnitude of these structures con-
vinces visitors that even all that has
been published about the plant has not
half told tho story.

on March II, last, when he was riding

and rolled over an embankment.
He was thrown against seat in the
car and injured his left leg so severely

claims that he was seriously injured

not maintaining good road bed.
