CAPT. RICH DIES
FAR FROM HOME
Well Known Railroader Sue
cumbs While in Employ
OfChinese Government.

Capt w. w. Rich, who for the past
four years has been consulting engi-
neer of the Imperial Chinese railway
administration, died in China on Jan.
2. He was we'll known in the Twin
Cities and Wisconsin, having been the
first manager and engineer of the 500
road
Capt Rich had entire charge of the
construction of the road, and after it
came into operation became it's gen.
eral- manager and chief engineer. He
remained with the company till 1898,
when he went to China to take the
position he held at the time of his
death.
Before his connection with the 500
Capt. Rich was engaged extensively in
railroad construction work, having
had charge of the building of the Wis
consin Central from Milwaukee to
Ashland. He was also connected with
the engineering department of the
Milwaukee for a time. He was an in
innate friend Of ex-senator w. D.
Washburn, and his being engaged by
the Chinese government grew from a
visit to that country with the senator.
They went together to seek railroad
concessions, and, though they were
not successful in obtaining any, the
Chinese government was so favorably
impressed with Capt. Rich that soon
after his return to this country he was
rendered the position of consulting en-
gineer.
The father of Capt. Rich, Rev. JUS
tus c. Rich, was member of the
Minnesota Methodist church confer
ence Mrs. Alice Hamilton Rich, wife
of the deceased, is we'll known as a
contributor to American literary PEI
riodicals, being the author of many
articles on China and the Orient.

Federal Court Continues Forgery Case
Against Edward Wright.

When the case against Edward ].
Wright, charged with having forged
postal money orders, was called in the
federal court yesterday Assistant Dis

Wright was indicted in connection
with the postal forgeries in which

STATES WAR OVER
BUTTER PLANTS
Creameries Would Merge but for the
Various Laws.

Arbitration has entered into the set
Element Of dissensions in the creamery
business. State Dairy and Food Com
missioner w. w. P. MacConnell, to-
gether with the commissioner from
Iowa, have been called upon to act SIS
mediatOrs.
The Minnesota-Iowa state line is re-
sponsible for the trouble. At Emmons,
Mimi, there is a creamery. Just across
the line in Iowa is another. They are
but a half mile apart. The managers
and patrons wish to have them con-
solidated and thus save much expense,
but with all their desire they cannot
settle which state should have the in
dustry. State pride is playing a strong
part and the tribunal is to decide the
affair.

The plaintiff alleges that $3.50 had
been paid for trading stamps, which
had been given out. to- their customers,
after Which the company refused to

POSER FOR
Eminent of Human Nature
Claims Children Are Educated
at Home to BE Liars.

An eminent pessimist observes that
lying is the one common characters
tic of all mankind. From his earliest
infancy a child learns to lie. His par
ents and his companions teach him to
do so, and so do nearly all the grown
up persons about him.
At first the lying may be innocent
and without any bad intention. The
little girl pretends that her doll is
talking, that it is i'll, that it is catch
ing cold. This may be regarded as a
form of lying, however innocent the
intention.
Nearly all families, however re-
spectacle, make use of various conven-
tional lies in daily life. The child no.
tees this and follows the example set
him. He hears his parents tell the serv-
ants to say that they are not at home
when they are. He hears them COM
pliment people to their faces and criti-
else them after them are gone. He
hears them tell visitors how delighted
they are to see them, and as 500 as
they are gone he learns that they were
a dreadful nuisance.
Grown-up people lie when children
ask them questions, either because
they cannot answer the questions or
do not want to, or are ashamed to
do so.
By and by he finds out that his elders
were in the habit of lying to him. and
he adopts the habit himself. The child
who tells all he knows in public is nat
urally considered a source of great
embarrassment. His parents tell him
that he must not tell all he knows:
even that he must pretend things are
not what they are. In order TO force
this behavior on the boy for the sake
of keeping up appearances he is often
punished, and this of course impresses
the lesson of lying upon him very
strongly. He learns that it is impossi-
be to live without lying.-Chicago
American.
