Dispatch.
Charles NJ. Schwab orce expressed
the opinion that a college education 'sas
a preparation for the serious business
Of life is by no means important Mr.
Schwab himself claims, inferentialIy
to be a living proof of the truth of this
statement, since he is credited with re
ceiving from the Steel Trust a salary
estimated all the way from 500, 900 to
81 900, 000 a year.
But Mr.. Schwab is not alone in his
glory There have been other men who
have achieved not only financial sue
cess, but undying fame without even
so much as the benefit of a grammar
school. One Of these men was Abra-
ham Lincoln Another was Andrew
Jackson Both of these men We're pres
idents of the United States. And there
were others.
But the list does not end here. There
is the baseball hero. Once in a while
we hear of some baseball phenomenon
who has gone through college but how
number of boiler. makers, blacksmiths,
iron workers and other laborers who
are drawing the top-notch salaries in
the baseball leagues In the infancy
of what is now affectionately termed
the national game" the maximum sal
airy for players was 81 500 for a season
Of six months. Now the salary
ranges all the way from SO, 500 up to
SO 900 for six months work. In other
words. men who at their ordinary
trades would earn from 81 ,095 to 81 $50
year are drawing money at the rate
of from 81. 200 up to $40 900 a year as
stellar attractions in the baseball world
and some of them have to spit on their
hands before they are able to execute
the manual labor of signing their names
to contract.

The business of periodically sending
out reports that II. Clay Evans was
about to be turned out of the pension
bureau was carried on persistently for
about four years before the time when
that gentleman voluntarily retired to
accept a more lucrative position. The
tactics are now being pursued toward
Mr.. Ware. 1t is generally understood
that the Kansas mans appointment was
due to the personal liking which the
president felt for him. It is improbable
therefore that any circumstances could
arise which would cause Mr.. Roosevelt
to remove him

nection with the statehood bill the
Pittsburg Dispatch says. THE fact is
they could have had a vote on the bill
long ago if they had wished. The vir-
tue of this bill to the senatorial strate-
gists is that it enables them to block
other measures which they dare not OPP
emily oppose. 1t is not hazardous to pre-
dict that it win serve the same useful
purpose to the end Of the chapter"
If this be true why don't the oppon-
ents of the bill take the QUAY crowd at
their word when vote is proposed and
thus play a joke on them?

DEATH OF TAos. HARDENBERe

Atlantic, Iowa, March 1.-THE re-
mains of the late Thos. Hardenberg
We're laid to rest in the Atlantic ceme-
terry beside these of his faithful wife.
Sunday afternoon, the funeral services
being held from the residence OF his
daughter, Mrs. r. 6. Phelps, at p.
M, Rev. c. F. Crooks. officiating.
Thomas Hardenberg was born in VI
ster county, New York, March Z, 1913,
being the son of Nicholas Hardenberg,
veteran of the war of 1872 and one OF
the gallants who, under General Will
lam Henry Harrison, defended the then
feeble union with its 100000 inhabi-
tants against the second assault Of the
British. Being the son of such a father,
it was only natural that young Thomas
should take up arms in defense of his
country when the next call should
come, and it did in the early '30s, when
the noted Indian chief, Osceoila, gath
cred about him the then formidable
tribe of red men know as the Seminoles
and began a conquest on Florida. Soon
the Creeks Joined Issues with the Sem
inoles, and a war lasting as long as the
revolution followed. General Winfield
Scott was in command of a portion of
the union forces and among his troops
was the First United States artillery,
in Battery d of which Thomas Harden
berg was a private soldier
After a service of eighteen months
against the foe, Mr.. Hardenberg was
wounded in the hand at the battle OF
Mosquito Swamp, when he was given
an honorable discharge from the serv-
ice and placed upon the pension rolls
Of the government and sent back to the
home of his childhood.

will Inherit part OF an estate worth
$4,000.
Mr.. Fassett's memory is green in the
office of the Sioux City Gas and Elec-

the story of the unique way in which
he procured cheap gas became public.
He found a gas meter in an. empty
house and used it for relays with the
company's meter. He put the company
meter OH just before the visit. of the gas
man and took it off very shortly after
his departure. The result was that he
