are holding on TO the land, ex-

They have three good oil wells in

ON WEALTH.
Carnegie Tells Students it will
Not Buy Happiness.

Andrew Carnegie made an ad-
dress before the members OF the
graduating class OF the school de.
partment OF the General Society OF
the City OF New York, says the
Times.
Mr.. Carnegie has been member
OF the institute since 1891, and in
1898 he donated $4,000 for the fur
nishing OF the present home OF the
organization.
President William II. Oliver in
troduced Mr.. Carnegie, who said in
substance:
"There are several classes OF
young men. There are those who
do not do ali their duty; there are
those who profess to do their duty,
and there is a third class, far bet
ter than the other two, that do
their duty and little more.
"There is 3 difference between
talent and genius. Talent does
what it can; genius, what it must.
But II is the little more that makes
the difference.
"There are many great pianists,
but Paderewski is at the head be-
cause he does little more than
the others. There are hundreds of
race horses, but it is those who 60
a few seconds faster than the 9th
ers that acquire renown. So IL is
in the sailing OF yachts. 1t is the
little more that wins. So it is with
the young and old men who do a
little more than their duty.
"The youth who spends his
night fter his daily toll in i'm
proving himself is the one that sue
ceeds. 1t is TO encourage such that
| am here tonight. Such youths
as these are the salt OF society and
the salt OF the nation.
"Now, what do these graduates
seek? | suppose some of them want
to be milllonaIres. Well, that is a
laudable ambition. Others | sup.
pose, are looking for fame. That
is vainer ambition with more OF
the spirit OF a Hotspur.
"Bul the man who works for
money alone will not find happi-
ness, nor will he be n useful citi.
