The AGE OF BRAINS.
Pertinent Ideas Advanced by Writer
In the Forum,

In the Forum.
The late Philip ID. Armour once told
me that he did not give his sons a
dollars worth of stock in his immense
business until they had satisfied him
that they could make sausage" This
was the great packers homey way of
saying that he did not take his sons
into the firm until they had shown
business capacity and industry. But
not many rich men in this country
follow the example set by the founder
of the great house of Armour. The
young man with nothing but brains
has nothing to lose. What to do with
patrimony of 100000 does not bother
him or keep him awake at night. The
young man with 100000 will soon
realize that this is too small a sum
to risk in business in an age of COM
bines, when all productive and mer-
camille enterprises are conducted upon
scale of great magnitude. Manufac-
turing is certainly out of the question:;
and il he wants to embark in mer-
camille pursuit he must go to a small
town that is not yet invaded by
mammoth department store selling
everything from tack hammer to
store teeth" says writer in the
Forum
But the young man with nothing but
brains is not confronted by such per-
plexities There is no trust in
brains. 1t may be possible to corner
the wheat crop or control the yearly
output of corn starch, but you cannot
corner the crop of ideas. If the young
man looks about him and studies the
age Of combinations is also the age OF
brains.
The Grit-advocate., 1902-04-04
Eleven Churches Wrecked.

Pittsburg. April 1.-The damage by
Sundays storm will probably reach
several hundred thousand dollars. The
effects of the wind can be seen non all
sides to-day, houses. churches and
many large plants unroofed, bridges
partly dismantled, fences and trees
down and trolley, telegraph, telephone
and fire alarms prostrated.
A remarkable feature of the storm
was the number of churches that We're
injured. In Pittsburg and Allegheny
and the immediate vicinity eleven
houses of worship were more or less
wrecked, but in only one of them-the
Presbyterian church-did any casual
ties result. AT the latter place through
the chimney coming through the roof,
probably thirty-tive persons We're in-
jured.
The local churches damaged are st.
Peters Protestant Episcopal Belle
field Presbyterian; St John the Evan
glist, Roman Catholic. and the Eighth
Street Temple of Pittsburg; African
Methodist Episcopal and st. Wence-
lau's Bohemian Roman Catholic of AL
legheny; First English Lutheran and
United Prcsbyterian: ST. Mary'S Ro-
man Catholic. McI<ec'S Rocks and Rob
inson Run United Presbyterian Church,
Mcdonald. PENNSYLVANIA
The casualties as far as have been
reported will not number more than
sixty people injured, of which five or
six are likely to die.

RECIPROCITY BILL REPORTED,
Reduction of Twenty Per Cent. on
Sugar Imported From Cuba.

Washington, April L. Chairman
Payne yesterday presented to the
House the report of the ways and
means committee on the Cuban lrs.i-
procity bill. which the committee had
ordered reported earlier in the day.
After recitng President Itooscvciis $
recommendation in behalf of Cuba,
Mr. Payne says:
Our relations to Cuba are peculiar.
In our declaration of war with Spain,
and ever since. we have solemnly pro-
claimed TO the world that our OBJ ct
was 10 give Cuba Il stable and indie
pendent government
The report adds that we are bound
to care for our own people, but aii"r
reviewing the American sugar siiua-
ton. says:
1T can work no injury TO our indus
try if we make this small reduction in
Cuban sugars. The enactment OF tIls
bill will not affect the protection of the
sugar producers of the United States.
There is no reasonable pretenSe that
the same reduction on other Cuban
products will injure any other Amcri-
can industry"
The report asserts that the planters
and not the rctiners will receive the
benefits of the reduction. and adds:
Cuba does not come simply lis Il
mendicant nor should she be treated
as such. She offers Il good trade in re
turn. This she is willing to cOnccde.
Under the provisions of the bill. we.
should be able to double the amount of
our export trade with Cuba, which
