Chairman Griggs Of the Democratic
Congressional Campaign Committee
says the whole country is interested in
Devery, and that down in Georgia
they take almost as much interest in
him as in New York; even in the coun-
try districts the name of Devery is
heard on all sides" That being the
case, Mr.. Griggs has made discovery
which ought to prove profitable. Why
not get Devery to take the stump in
some of the doubtful districts after he
has won his own fight in ode Mint %
Devery to draw the crowds and Bal
ley to make the argument would be
a winning card.

DfstrustfuI Haste,

The small daughter of a German
town dentist was recently sent on an
all-summer visit to an aunt in Meshap-
pen, Pa, says the Philadelphia Times.
The child had always been very de-
vout, and at home had been in the
habit of kneeling by her bed, saying
formal prayer aloud in her mother s
hearing, and then inaudibly adding a
little invocation of her own compost
ton. When bedtime came the first
night at her aunt's, the child called
the latter to hear her prayers. AS
usual, when she had finished, she bow
ed her head in her hands and started
on her whispered appeal. The aunt,
not knowing the little ones habit, and
thinking 1t a mere manifestation of
sleepiness, said somewhat impatient
ly:
Hurry, dear!-hurry!"
Hurry, dear!-hurryl" repeated the
child, Indignantly mimicking her aunt.
Then. with pious scorn, she added:
What kind of a house is this, any
way? Hurry, dear!-hurry! A per-
son is not given time here to talk a
minute to the Lord"

In 1887 Burnett Y. Tiffany. son of
Charles l.. Tiffany of New York, mar
ried Bertha Pierson. a pretty little sew
ing girl. The marriage was against
the will Of the young mans father.
When the late Charles l.. Tiffany's
will was read the other day it was
learned that he had reduced Burnetts
inheritance by s., 600, 900 on account of
his marriage. But that was not all
the young man lost. Eleven days after
their marriage his bride left him. never
to return. Two million dollars for a
honeymoon of eleven days seems a
rather steep price.

VINO WILL GET FAIRS WEALTH.

Indications point to an interesting
contest over the estate of Charles Fair,
who, with his wife, was killed in an
automobile accident in France a few
days ago. 1t is estimated that Mr..
Fairs estate is worth somewhere be-
tween s5,O00,QOO TO $1OOOO,O 900, and that
Mrs. Fairs estate is worth about $780,
0OO
Mrs. Fair has numerous heirs, and 1t
is stated that they have already taken
steps to claim the estate of Mr.. Fair,
who has only two heirs, his sisters,
one OF them being Mrs. Fl. Oelrichs and
the other Mrs. w. X. Vanderbilt, Jr
Everything depends upon whether
Mr.. or Mrs. Fair died first. OF course
If Mr.. Fair died first his wife inherited
big share of his estate, even If there
were no will. II he made a will, and 1t
is understood he did, the probability is
that he left the bulk of his fortune to
her, and If she survived him even for
few moments the will became oper-
alive and her heirs would receive
very handsome property. 1t is not to
be wondered at therefore that the heirs
of Mrs. Fair are early in the field with
their claim that Mr.. Fair died first
But if Mrs. Fair died first none of
Mr.. Fairs millions will go to Mrs
Fairs heirs. His property will all go
to his two sisters. The information
thus far received Shows that both were
killed instantly There is absolutely
no testimony that one died before the
other. If 1t cannot be shown that one
survived the other, even a half a min
ute, or even less time, 1t will be as
sumed that Mr.. Fair lived the longer.
This would be in accordance with the
law OF California. which is based upon
the presumption that a man, as a rule,
is stronger than a woman.
There Is a chance for a big fight over
Mr.. Fairs estate, and 1t is highly prob
able that the fight will be made The
two persons who saw Mr.. and Mrs
Fair after the accident in which they
We're killed may have to travel all the
way from France to California to be-
come witnesses, ard may furnish the
newspapers with some sensational
items.

According to the New York dis
patches many things await the arrival
of Mr.. Morgan in that city He Is
expected TO settle the anthracite coal
strike, to name the man who is to sue
coed Mr.. Schwab as the president of
the United States Steel Corporation,
to arrange a merger or a traffic agree
ment between certain great railroad
systems in the South and West. to
form a shipping trust out of the
shipping interests on the Great Lakes.
and to adjust a number of other mat
tiers of vast financial importance.
Mr.. Morgan has made a reputation
for doing things-great things-and he
is bound 10 live up to II. He cannot
afford to take a rest or 10 retire from
active business. He has too many
irons in the fire to permit of his re-
tirement. What would become OF the
Northern Securities Company and the
litigation in which it is involved if
he were to announce that he had made
up his mind to get out of business of
all kinds and spend the rest of his
days in seeking health and pleasure?
Would there not be a sort of panic in
Wall street? That street has fallen in
to the habit of depending upon him,
and it now feels it could not get along
without his guiding hand.
The wonder is that Mr.. Morgan
doesn't break down under the weight
of his responsibilities. He must have
the ability to drop all business cares
when he leaves his Office. If he were
to carry his business home with him
and think of it when he retired at
night he would become a victim of
dyspepsia and insomnia.
Probably Mr.. Morgan would drop a
great deal of business which is now
offered to him if he could do so with
out a loss of the high position he has
achieved in the world of finance. He
knows, however. if he were to stop
doing the things which startle the
world he would soon drop out of sight
and be forgotten. Another would rise
up and take his place. That he
couldn't endure. He enjoys the power
which he Yields, and he is ambitious
to increase it. 1t is safe to say
therefore that he will die in harness.
He cannot retire without losing his
reputation for doing things.

From time immemorial Sailor Jack
has been a grumbler. and especially
about his grub. Uncle Sam has deter
mined, among other naval reforms, to
give Jack as little cause for complaint
about what is served to him at mess
as may be possible. To that end the
quantity of the ration has been recent
ly increased about % per cent. and the
quality improved; and not only that
but the crew of the galley has been
reorganized SO that the chief cook will
be responsible for every item served
the men, and each cook has been fur
nished with a cook book especially pre-
pared under the direction of the Secre-
tary Of the Navy. Under the new reg
ulations Jack, the sailor, has the right
to complain to the cook If anything is
wrong with his meals. Failing to get
satisfaction from tha9 functionary
Jack may go to the mast" and COM
plain to the captain. If satisfaction is
still not forthcoming. he has the right
to appeal directly to the Secretary of
the Navy. That ought TO enable him
to get his bean soup, his salt horse"

THE LONGEST AND FINEST
TUNNEL IN THE WORLD.

The construction of an underground
railway throughout the length of Man
haitian Island has awakened an interest
in other great tunnels-those which have
been successfully completed in the past
and those which are now in process OF
building. Undoubtedly the great railway
tunnels under the Alps connecting Italy
with the Continent. are among the most
remarkable in the world. Mr. Herbert c.
Fyfe. an able English writer, gives. in the
September Pearson's. a most interesting
account of the construction of these tun-
nels, and particularly of the Simplon tun-
mel which. at a cost of Sl4,000,000 Is to
be completed in about two years from
this date Mr. Fyfe says:
1.-The Simplon tunnels plerces the base
of the Alpine giant Monte Leone. There
are, as a fact. two tunnels running side
by side at a distance of some fifty feet
At present only one is being bored sufi-
ciently large enough for ordinary pas
senger traffic; the other tunnel is used
for a narrow gauge line by which mate
