MR.. WHITNEY's PHILANTHROPY.

WILLIAM c. WHITNEY. the best
W known turfman in the United
States, has set brilliant example for
other millionaires 10 follow. With a
generosity as magnificent as it is I'M
paralleled. Mr.. Whitney has established
a fund in England. the income of which
is TO be devoted TO the relief of needy
persons connected with horse racing.
II is TO be hoped that Mr. Whitney
can be persuaded 10 establish similar
benevolenCe in this country.
If he does. the people who are fond
OF betting on the bangtails may do so
without fear of want. present or fu-
ture. When their good thing" goes
wrong they can apply to the stewards
Of the fund and secure relief in pro-
portion to their losses. What a bless
ing that would be to the clerks. the
bank tellers. the business men, who
are often compelled to take other peo-
pies money to wager on horse races.
When we contemplate the Whitney
benefactlon and the immense benefit il
win bring to the human race, the en-
dowments of colleges, universities. hos
pitfalls, orphan asylums and libraries
seems a villainous waste of money. Mr..
Whitney is entitled to the thanks of
his brother millionaires and Of the
country at large. He has showed them
a new way to get rid OF their money.
way that must rebound to his and
their everlasting credit.
Mr.. Whitney possesses great influence
as well as great wealth. Inspired by
his example, we may hope 10 see. at
no distant date. funds created for the
rehabilitation of ruined faro bank
fiends. of roulette victims. of those
who have fingered too long at the stud
poker table, OF innocents who have
dallied with the shells and OF pur-
ehasers of gold bricks. Surely 1t is not
right 10 discriminate in favor of one
class Of gamblers. Why shouldn't all
be treated alike?
Let the sick find a soft place in the
street to die on. let the hungry for
knowledge starve intellectually. let the
orphan go homeless and the widow I'M
cared for! Why should money be
wasted on such as these when really
deserving people have lost their all at
horse racing or games OF chance?

New Premier's Family.
New York WoridD


Arthur James Balfour. Britain's new
prime minister, is being much written
about as belonging 10 the old patrician
class. In fact, the Balfour family is only
two generations old as the British reckon
family history. He has no great-grand
father The founder of his greatness was
James Balfour, who made large fortune

middle of the road for anything that was
worth having I'm the three kingdoms.
Grandfather BRifour's eldest son clinched
matters by marrying a Cecil, a sister OF
Lord Salisbury, the just retired prime
minister. And. Of course, they all went
to parliament.
The late Lord Beaconsfield. when he
came home from Berlin In 1881. after ne
gotiating the famous treaty which Sc
cured peace with honor" was met by a
tory delegation from Lancashire and
asked to name a good candidate for par

consfield replied: Take Arthur Balfour
He will be a second Pitt" Beaconsfield's
prophecy is now half realized by the sue
cessiOn OF RaifOur to the premiership.
Whether he will prove a second Pitt
remains 20 be seen. Beaconsfield was a
great flatterer when he cared to be.

fought for the cause that was lost. On
every side there were evidences that
the chasm between the sections had
been closed.

Ala. The site is in every way admira-
BILE. There IS an abundance of land
on which 70 erect cottages. aaa the
climate and scenery are all that could
be desired.
A very small annual contribu-
ton from each Of the veterans
OF the north. with the aid which
the southerners could give, would
be sufficient 10 maintain the home
comfortably. And there is no doubt
that contributions will be made
generously. The only question is az to
whether OF not they will be accepted
by the men for whose benefit they are
intended.
1t viii be remembered that when a
bin was offered in congress TO provide.
pensions for ex-confederates. the most
vigorous Of all the protests came from
the proposed benefciaries. 1t is more
than likely that they VIII feel the same

obvious THAI they can only accept II

OF course it is a false pride. but the
southern fighters have ii just the same.
Further developments and comment
from the south will be awaited with
interest by the northern
press and public.

one OF the most striking comments is

better than this. and at the same time
be exceedingly interesting. and even
have historical value.
But this is Ike most Of its prede-

thought and speech. Every man who
had 20 do with II ought to be ashamed
Of himself"
No criticism keener than this
has come from any Democratic source.
The Republicans must be in a bad way
when they cannot even get out a cam
paign book that is satisfactory to their
party. AS a matter OF fact. they are in
a bad way. a much worse way than
they were In 1900. when they preached
against free silver In the east, and were
discreetly silent on the same point in
the west.
Their campaign book of 1902 will have
the effect OF widening the breach
caused IN the party by reason OF the
split on Cuban reciprocity. on the 18TH
milan canal, on tariff revision and on
the trust question.

Don't FIatter Yourself.

If you are a brakeman don't claim
that you are as good a railroad man as
the general manager. In this country
il is said that one man is as good as
another. but il isn't true. Certain men
are above you by reason Of good be-
havior, better health, better workman
shin. No use to combat the truth.
Recognize your superiors. Learn
from them, don't toady to them, but
learn from them. Every successful
man is successful for a reason; he has
fewer bad habits than unsuccessful
men; more industry, more order. 1t is
an uncomfortable truth but important.
Don't sit in the shade and say you are
as good as the man who is working
away out in the sun at five dollars a
day while you are looking for a job at
a dollar and thirty cents. Pattern af-
ter good qualities, you can't injure him
by abusing him.
There is always a brisk demand for
good men. II you are a good man.
you will have no time to sit around
and abuse industrious people; you will
have a good job.
You fiatter yourself too much and

il is likely that no more measurements
of the river will be taken at any point

the water stations kept up for years,
but the United States commission is
in favor of their adjustment, owing
to the great expense of their mainten-
ance. For eighteen months measure
ments have been taken here and at Es-
pamela. This has been the most diff
cult station for good results, owing to
the irregular course of the river. The

photographers to take up the work
