The remedy for conditions so serious lies with

Where Arrow Heads Grow.

When vacation comes DIR. Branner. the
head Of the Stanford geological department
HES himself far away from all things peda-
gogical to the remote fastness Of the noun
tains, and there studies the formation Of
the rocks and reads the life history Of earth
i'm the deposits of the ages. Last vacation
he was in the Sierras. He had as his guide
a man indigenous to the soil. who had never
been 90 miles from the home Of HIS child
hood He looked with much amusement
and scorn upon DR. Branner and his as
sistants and saw nothing in their work that
was of interest. To him the students seemed
more like good men gone daft. One day
Mr. Rranner located an old Indian burying
ground. In digging he came upon some
choice arrow heads. Thinking to test his
guides geological well his chronological
knowledge, the doctor said:
''Eliiah. do you know how these arrow
heads came here?
Crowd thar" said the native with great
positiveness.
Nonsense. If you were to take an arrow

health became affected When Kelly died
Tammany was without a leader. Croker
at.the time was a member Of the executive
committee and he advised LET us man
age our affairs in full council, giving
preference to none"
Out of this arrangement sprang the big
four of Tammany-Croker, Grant, Gilroy
and Cockran-but Croker's faculty for
leading men soon made him the recognized
boss and in short time the organization
acknowledged him as its master Those
who opposed him were driven into obscu-
rity and shorn of their power and patron
age, while men on whom Croker could
rely were put in their places. He thus
built up a powerful house.
Mr.. Croker held an office while he was
boss. Mayor Grant appointed him city
chamberlain in 1889. He resigned that Of
fee before the expiration of his full term
and went suddenly to Europe. That ended
his office holding.
In the Fassett investigation, then in
progress. Patrick II. Mccain, brother
in-law of Mr.. Croker, testified that Mr..
Croker had received in the guise of gifts
to his daughter Flossie sums aggregating
S25, 900 from Hugh ]. Grant whom Croker
had made sheriff several years before.
Both Messrs. Croker and Grant admitted
that the amount was $4,000 and the expla-
nation given by Mr.. Grant was that Flos-

Sudden Rise to Wealth.
That was the last time that Richard
Croker was rated as a poor man, and the
year was 1890. Two years after he was
able to buy the Belle Meade farm for
$3.50, 900 and besides this, he had paid $50 900
for the horse Longstreet. $4,000 for York
vile Belle, 1000 for Dobbins. his favorite
$4,000 for Red Banner: $4,000 for a half
interest in Demuth and $4,000 for Fairy,
in all 100000. He offered $4,000 for the
stallion Thorn and $4,000 for the three
year-old filly Helen Nichols.
Then came new home i'm East Seventy
fourth street worth 100000; a carriage
with the Croker crest, an estate at Rich

English country estate and a stable.

Rent Collecting in the Middle Ages.


Readers who are interested in problems q
political economy and the relation Of rent 10
property and labor viii find an interesting de-
scription Of medieval methods in an ancient
record. edited by n. Cart IN the Revue des
Questions HistOriques" The commune q
Borest in the thirteenth century was owned
by the Canons OF st. Genevieve. The manner
in which these monastic landlords collected
their dues was sufficiently simple Their
steward proceeded to he farmyard, when the
farmer brought homN his harvest OF wheat;
the farmer mounted he cart, unfastened the
rope. and in the pzesence Of the collector
threw down the sheaves eleven az a time Out
Of the eleven three were set aside. or these
the collector took two-one for rent and one
for tithes The third went wages to the
reaper The remaining eight were retained
by the farmer. Thus the latter was charged
some 20 per cent. of his produce for his land,
while something less than 10 per cent. went 10
she labOrer. on the whole. the proportion was
not a very unfair one. and the method had a.
least the merit Of being selfadjusting in a bad
season. and made the church and the land
lord share the losses Of the, farmer, while
the reaper was happily paid--not by time but
by results In modern times our systems OF
rent and wage assessment have become more
complicated, possibly less equitable than when
the Canons OF St. Genevieve owned the little
village Of Borest, with its surrounding prop
erty.
