literature benefits mankind. and If
music benefits him, and if general
knowledge benefits him, then art GER

and bad knowledge. But wholesome
art is one of the great factors in ele-
waiting the human character The fool
ism assertion that art weakens the
character of nation, an assertion that
has at times been advanced. is so ut
terly absurd that it should hardly be
seriously discussed. 1t has bean pointed
out that when art was at its highest
In Greece, the state was DIT it's lowest:
that the love of art had be<ottan SEN
suousness and indulgences; that all
forms OF vice were rampant and that
the manhood of the nation had been
sapped. What folly! Nations have
their duration of life Just as individ-
uals, as the trees of the forest have.
The consciousness of the decaying en-
ergies of the Greeks debased their art.
instead Of their art debasing them
Greece became decadent not because of
art, but in spite of it. The love of art
maintained her for long time at her
best The nation in it's political, COM
mercial and industrial development
had come to standstill. Art alone
remained to offer a stimulus to make
possible progress. When the acme was
reached in art, then began the retro
gression which had been arrested and
stayed by art alone. No nation, any
more than an individual can stand
still.
A people must go forward or else
backward 1t was so with Greece. 1t is
so with every nation. But what mon
uments has Greece left behind to tes-
tify to her greatness? Is there any
trace left of her commercial or indus
trial development? Even in engineer
ing are there examples that testify to
her skill there? No. The things that
remain to us Of the highest civilization
reached by the Greeks are the produc-
ton of her art and literature. They
alone endure. Therefore it must be
manifest how important a factor art is.
The entire world has been influenced
and moulded by the work along these
lines of the old Greeks. And so we will
influence and mould the people who
come after us, the rising generation,
If we surround them with works of
art.
We will elevate their ideas. We Will
make of them better men and women,
nobler citizens. Every statue that is
erected to a great man is in itself an
inspiration to the right-minded boy.
He doesn't know whether II is good
art or bad He sees that the people
have honored a man who did his duty,
who made. sacrifices for his country
and his fellows. and he Is inspired to
do likewise We have fine pictures,
good statuary. and other productions
of art, and the eyes Of our people are

DEATH CLAIMS FRANK Il. PEAVEY
Had of Big Grain Firm Succumbs to
Attack of Pneumonia.


Attack of Pneumonia.
Chicago, Dec. 31.-Frank II. Peavey,
5ne OF the best known grain men in
the country. died here yesterday OF
pneumonia. aged 52 years. Mr.. Pea
yey came TO Chicago from his home
n Minneapolis nearly two weeks ago
On q business trip. He was in his
usual perfect health, but Dec. 20 he
contracted a cold and that night took
20 his bed in the Auditorium Annex.
The cold quickly developed into pneu-
monia.
Mr.. Peavey was credited with being
the largest owner of grain elevators
in the country, II not in the world.
The sign "Pv" was a familiar one
on grain warehouses throughout the
grain producing states of the west and
northwest, along the lines OF railroads.
At railroad terminal points he had
large holdings. his liter is in Chi
cago being particularly heavy. His
name for years has been potent ON the
boards OF trade hece and il the north
vest. .
The total amount of III. Peayey's
insurance was s1.376,Co0. The $1,000
coo policy was payable to himself or
his heirs. but its purpose was to furnish
ready car...i for the business in case

REsrRAlNs. STOCK RETIRING.

Holder Of Common Endeavors to Pre-.
vent Withdrawal Of Preferred.
Minneapolis, Dec. 31.-Judge Elliott
of the district court Of Hennepin coun.
~ yesterday granted temporary or.
der restraining. the officers of the
Northern Pacific Railroad company
from retiring the preferred stock Of
that company. The order was issued
on the application Of Peter Power O.;
New York. who holds 100 shares of the
common stock. 1t was supposed that
the failure Of the action brought In
the New York courts by holders OF
preferred stock cleared away the last
obstacle to the retirement OF the pre-.
ferred on Jan. l, leaving the Hill in
terest In control Of the road through
Its majority Of the common stock.
1t is inferred. although 1t does not
SO appear. that the present action is
brought in behalf OF the Hartman in.
terest to prevent control passing out
Of it's hands for another year. or until
the legal standing Of the Northern Sc.
curities company is settled.

M.kTCEs ARE NOW REcEDING.
Worst Of the Flood Is Over In
Pennsylvania.

Philadelphia, Dec. 31.-From oil
parts Of eastern Pennsylvania reports
show that rivers and creeks which
became greatly swollen as a result of
the recent rains are steadily falling.
There is one exception. however. the
lower part Of the SusQrehanna river
being reported still rising and close to
the danger mark. Although consider
able damage was done. the loss will
not be great, most of the flooded areas
being lowlands along the upper Schuyl-
kill. Lehigh and SusQuehanna rivers.
In the coal districts a few mines were
flooded causing a suspension Of work
for the day. Along the lower Susque-
hanna there is apprehension that dam.
age will result from ice gorges. The
water is said to be rising six inches
an hour in that vicinity.
Mannyunk. one of the mill districts,
suffered most from the flood. Every
mill along the river was forced to sus.
pend operations, throwing out Of work
for the day about 5000 persons.
