The New Jersey legislators have
passed bill for the determination Of
their native song birds-the mosqui-
toes. A bill has been passed appro-
priating $4,000 for that purpose. and
certain experts on bugs, "varmints'
and things believe that these tiny
songsters have sung their last lay.
Much to her annoyance, Delaware has
not been exempt from the attack OF
these voracious fowls-the distance
across the river is so short. And as
they are to be exterminated in tbs
natural place Of their origin, Delaware
Will have no neighboring place from
which to import them, consequently We
too. shall be mosquitoless.

IMpRovInENr cH1LnnrN

The will of the late Charles l. Tiff
any, the great New York jeweler. dis
tributes large fortune, but limits the
allowance of one son to a small sum.
The reasons given by the testator are
that the conduct OF the young man has
been such that It would be unwise to
lentrust him with a fortune, and that
he has not shown himself worthy Of
any large bequest. Perhaps the elder
Tiffany has been more fortunate than
his son, since me inherited little more
than a fair education and a great deal
OF energy. He was thrown upon his
own resources and the struggle to
achieve business success made him
what he was.
The younger man was born in an at
mosphere of wealth ana luxury and
doubtless had every reason TO believe
THAT there was an ample fortune await
ing him. He seems TO have entered
into a life that is perfectly artificial
and which is growing too common in
our great centres OF population. Fortu-
hately, we have numerous examples to
show that the SONS of the wealthy do
not always make failure of life. Our
men OF wealth have learned the lesson
That the heir to millions, for his own
happiness and development must per-
form some service TO mankind and to
help earn at least a moiety of what he
spends. A son Of the Vanderbilts is an
Inventor and spends his happiest mo-
ments in working out his ideas in the
madhine shops. THE greatest merchant
of Philadelphia put his boys in his
store, and made them work through IT,.
grade by grade.
This is the only true idea; we cannot
reverse the laws OF nature and she has
no comfortableplace fordrones. 1t is no
charity TO allow any boy, rich or poor
to grow into manhood without cult
waiting that self-reliance which comes
of knowledge Of how to do something
useful Another Tiffany buckled on a
sword and went to war with the Rough
Riders, only to meet death on the bat
tlefeld He did not live in vain.

Mrs. Maybrlck's S Case.
Special to the Record.

Special to the Record.
London, Nov. 6, In view of
the revival of interest in Ameri-
ca in the Maybrick case and the
fact that deputation of women
is shortly to come from the Uni
ted States to plead for the fam
Gus prissner, statement made
by one in close touch with the
Office of the Home Secretary is of
particular interest. About a
year ago it was rumored that
Mrs. Maybrick would be includ-
ed among those receiving elem.
ency from the King at the time
of the latter's coronation. The
coronation passed, however, with
out any NEW developments in
the case. No suco proclamation
of pardon was forthcomming and
hope was quite abandoned by
those who had been beenanxious-
ly expecting that his Majesty
would extend royal clemoncy to
a cor siderable number of prison
ers and restore them to freedom
and ciyal life.
The announcement just made
that in India, in connection with
the approaching cornation ceoe-
monies at the ga eat Duroar, the
Viceroy would release a large
number of prisoners has re-
aVakoned public expectation
here that the King Will be graci-
ously pleased to extend his con-
sideration in a similar manner.
It is Il armed from the person all
ready referred to that such an
act of clemency is in contempla-
tion, but if carried outit will ex-
tend only to minor offenders.
So far as can be learned the
prospects of Mrs. Maybrick be-
ing released are no brighter now
then they have been at'any other
time during the many years of
her Imprisonment.
