Man Of Affairs
of habit. The first shopkeeper will
in the meantime be sitting unthought
of and uncared for, aghast at the
crowds that daily throng the counters
of his competitor and bitterly bewail-
ing the bad luck which has followed
his own venture into trade. Yet he
has no one to blame for it but himself.
Some persons might consider that
old Commodore Vanderbilt was dis
honest because he did not refund the
money which the stockholders of the
Hudson River d. Harlem railroads
would have made il they had contin-
ued to hold their stock after he took
hold of the roads. But he was not.
Fhey cheated themselves out OF the
money by not being far-sighted
enough to hold on to their stock.
When the commodore had made $20,-
100000 in shipping of various sorts he
looked about for something good in
which he might invest his capital. He
found these railroads, which were
then in a most deplora BILE, out-of-date
condition-the stock only worth IS on
500 and the bonds you could not sell
for love or money. But he took hold,
built new bridges, put all modern inn
provements into the car service. advo-
Gated new signal systems, in short, he
infused new blood into the entire
service Of the road at an enormous
outlay Of capital-and then he waited.
And all the capital came back, bring
ing much additional wealth with IT.
] have seen many men who have be-
come wealthy through dishonest
methods, and my experience with
them has taught me this: That most
men who gain wealth dishonesty, il
they live long enough. get poor again.
1t is almost an invariable rule.
The main temptation with which
the ordinary business man of to-day Is
beset is the temptation to misrepre-
sent his capital or business prospects.

The g. v. has decided to erect n

at Half Way, Md. Both will be un

be appointed. The report that the
abroad company will erect an eleva-
tor there is said not to be correct.

his room in the Continental hotel
awaiting results. After the doors of
the room were locked Mr.. Flagg went
to the hotel, turned over the money
he haA taken in. minus his salary,
and Dahl prepared TO put as much
space between himself and Martin s.
burg in as short time as possible.
Then, too, there was woman in the
case.
Miss VanMetre of Harrisburg, Pa,
who has been visiting here for short
time, was with him when he arrived
at the Cumberland Valley station.
He was seen to buy two tickets for
Harrisburg about O'Clock. but after
that time they kept themselves in se-
clusion. Ii is understood that they
boarded the .S5 train for the north
from the opposite side OF the train
from the station.
1t is not believed that Dahl startef
in business with the intention of
fraud. but his disappointment at the
lack of success in business, coupled
with his infatustion for the young
girl, caused him to cast his lot with
fate. He likely saw no better way
out of the muddle into which he had
gotten himself than by getting what
money he could and absconding.
Dahl is young man about 20 years
of age. he came here about three
wears ago from New York as the book
keeper and stenographer for the
Crawford Wooden Company. He fill
ed that position creditabiv until in
November. when he decided TO en-
bark on the sea of business in his own
boat. He soon afterward resigned his
position with the Crawford Wooden
Company and devoted his time to his
own business with the result that he
is today business wreck and fugl-
tive.
The Aftermath.
About an hour after the store hao
been closed Cons able Fulk appeared
at the building to attach the stock,
but. like Old Mother Hubbard, who
went to the cubberd. he found none.
And the hungry c editors will have
to do without. Attachments were is
sued from the offices of both magis-
trates today on Dahls trunks. which
are still at the Continental hotel.
Some of the creditors want to hunt
him up and prosecute him, but the
whole affair. as it now stands. is very
complicated, it lawyers and creditors
both are almost at a loss as to what
step to take.
The heaviest losers are Irvan aud
Leedy. of Shenandoah Junction, who
sold the firm almost all of their Gig
ars. Their bill against the firm
amounts 10 about 500. Thew have
brought suit to recover $272, the
amount now due. The rest of the
800 is in notes which do not fall due
until later.

done these things which we expect
OF it, and which we will continue
to expect of the American soldiers.
The conditions of war in the Phil
ippine Islands have been perhaps,
unusual, and from reasons arising
from the conduct of the Filipinos
themselves, who, as the authorities
agree, are sometimes extremely
cruel and treacherous In the con.
duct of the American army toward
them, the exercise Of unexampled
patience is claimed, and the hui
manlty of the troops engaged has
no parallel in the history of dealing
with Asiatics.
The army of the past has again
proved here the mettle of which it
Is made; where the naval"and civil
authorities have writ their names
IN bold characters among the i'm
mortals, and the army OF the fut-
ure is taking step, aud the spirit
will go marching on still, as always,
loyal and true and 'steadfast to the
end There seems to be something
pathetic as well as majestic in the
attitude Of the army, where it has
done and deserved so well. I'm
known, it entered upon its duty
there, and, but half known, it re-
turns, its merits sterling as of yore."
All honor to our gallant soldiers
in that far off field. They are agents
OF civilization, coping with hard
problems, yet coping with them
bravely. Let all true Americans
support them in their efforts.

BADOLLET IS
FINED SIS.
Man Who Was Buried Alive
Will Remain in Jail
Awhile.

John Marc Badollet, the man who
was found buried alive in st. John 5
Church Cemetery Baltimore. Sunday
morning, was fined $25 and costs
yesterday afternoon b. Justice Reed,
at Baltimore and sent to Jail in de.
FAULT OF the payment Of the fine.
This action was entirely satisfactory
to the vestry OF ST. Johns Church.
The formal charge made against
Badolet was violating Act 27, Sec
tion GS. Chapter 2l5, Acts Of 1902,
'by acting in disorderIy manner
by buIying himself in a coffin box in
a grave in st. Johns Protestant
Episcopal Church Cemetery on No
vember l6."
Although Robert e. Lee Hall,
attorney for ST. Joln's vestry, mem.
bcrs of the vestry and Justice Reed
and the Police Department cross
questioned Bad oflet, they could not
induce linn TO abandon the story
that he met a stranger near st. Johns
Church and that he was forced by
tins man to be'buriei alive and that
this person was one of four men
who have been after him for many
years.
After the hearing Badollet asked
to see the Rev. w. ID. Morgan, rec
tor Of st. Johns. 1t was thought
that ne wanted to Confess" to him.
but he told the same story about
the man, and then asked Mr.. Nor
gan if he would help him to raise
the money to pay his fine. Mr.. Nor
gan told him he thought he was
better off where he was and would
be- tor some time to come
A. D. Clemens. Jr., telephoned to
Lieutenant Dempsey yesterday that
Badollet had bought a lot Of ground
from him in 1898 on Tinges lane
and L"wndes avenue and atterwar1
sold it to Albert Longuemare, Iiv-
mg at Wyandotte avenue and Old
York road He plli for the lot
through the WaVcrly Building and
Loan Association. BadolIet said it
WAS true that he bought the lot and
sold it.
Captain Ward said from what he
had seen OF the man and what
conversation he had with him he
wanted the jail physician to eX-
alnlne into his mental condition.

Two Important subjects.

Mr.. Jacob Riis of New York, de-
livered an address in the First chi
tartan Church last night on child
life in the slums, emphasizing Lhe
importance that childron be given
chance to develop physically and
mentally. He saw, in the corrup-
ton Of municipalities, one Of the
causes leading up to the making of
a juvenile offender. Better schools
and boys clubs were recommended
as among the remedies for the evil
effects of slum life. The subject of
"Child Saying will he considered
at this afternoons session of the
Associated Charities conference in
the Unitarian Church. That con-
ference will tonight have the sub
ject of the County Workhouse be-
fore it.
The punishment and after treat
ment of criminals was recently dis
cussed by the American Academy
of Political and Social Science. 1t
Is claimed that experience has
shown that the methnd Of giving
fndeterminate sentences Is highly
satisfactory. This has been tried
in several western States. aud under
it, prisoners are released Oh parole
when circumstances seem to war

they misconduct themselves. 1t
provides motive for good conduct
which helps the individual and the
public.

of punishment is the question.

Word has been received by the

tanker Luciline, which recently de-

France had grounded near Havre,
and that it was necessary to jettison
200 tons of her cargo. 1t was not
known whether the ship is damaged
or not through her mishap.
