HUNT MADE MILLIONS.

A dispatch from Des Moines, Iowa, last

from Corea brings the information that
Leigh Hunt, formerly president Of the State
Agricultural College Of Iowa, has become a
multi-millionaire in Corea, and to the ex-

Three Mayors.
;ooklovers Magazine

From the Booklovers Magazine.
The three largest cities in the country
have mayors today each Of whom represents
a. phase Of the new condition. Three ways
there are today in which a man may be-
come the dominant head OF an American
city. He may, as Mayor Low OF New York,
represent the uprising and combination OF
the classes neither exploiting nor exploited.
He may. like Mayor Harrison OF Chicago.
be the individual chieftain OF his own po-
litical clan and personal following, In his
case inherited. Philadelphia has in Mayor
Weaver a chief executive deliberately Sc
lected by a powerful political machine. cor
rupt. unscrupulous. allied with every ex-
plotting agency. corporation or political.
whose head and whose governing men
firmly believe that permanent political
power in current municipal conditions is
only possible by giving efficient administra-
ton. All these mayors-and this is the
great change Of the last ten years-only the
last ten years-hOld their places under an
avowed policy Of improved city government.
Mayor Low really stands for 1t. Mayor
Harrison wants to be believed to stand for
1t. Mayor Weaver claims to stand for 1t,
and has so far justified his claim. The first
has controlled the franchise corporations
and driven hard bargains with them. the
second has headed a long crusade against
them. and the third has surprised Philadel-
phia by insisting on testing their legal
rights and claims.

FLOWERS FOR HOME.
Mans Nature Demands Things That
Are Beautiful-The Garden.

From the Southern Farm Magazine
Home should mean more than shelter
There are other needs than those Of the
body. To stifle the love Of beauty Is to
cut off part of life: to crafty it is to
fulfill a legitimate demand of mans ma
ture. Where better seek to develop beauty
than in the home? Flowers add much to
the brightness of the picture. Every home
should have them. The farmer should not
consider it beneath his dignity to aid in
their care The successful farmer does not
hesitate to give time and expense to the
betterment Of his cattle and his hens. He
should not hesitate to give time to the de-
velopment Of his children. Children need
flowers. The early home surroundings
mean much. No later experience can efface
their influence from the after-life They
cannot be made too good.
1t Is easy to grow flowers. If we think
otherwise, 1t is because we have never
tried or have tried to grow them in the
wrong way To hoe up a little patch In
the sod and fill it in with chip dirt or
leaf-mold is not the way Grass roots
appreciate good living well as flower
roots, and are far more assertive. Grown
in this way results seldom repay the ef-
fort.
Flowers may be grown for two purposes.
and the object should govern the method.
rney may De to cut o. they may
two purposes need not be wholly distinct,
but are essentially different. II cut flowers
are the principal object, grow them in the
garden; they will thrive much better there.
Then do not set or single garden corner
and make a fancy raised bed in which to
confne them Give them good, broad rows,
running from end to end, where the wheel
hoe can do the work of tillage The rows
should be at least three feet apart, unless
1t be for some very small plants. like candy
tuft and pansies. It Is a great mistake
to crowd them into closer rows where they
have no chance to develop their individ-
uality.
II the soil fs in condition to grow good
onions or cabbage. no further trouble need
be taken on the score OF fertility. Only
very shallow mark is needed In sowing

EVANSVILLE AFFAIRS.
Committee to Consider the Installation
Of a Sewerage System.

O4 u sewerage SyStolus
Special Correspondence Of The Evening Star.
HYATTSvILLE. September II, 1903.
In accordance with a resolution passed at
the last meeting of the mayor and common
council of Hyattsville. Mayor Charles A.
Wells has announced the appointment of
the following committee to take into con-
sideration the feasibility OF Installing a To-
cal sewerage system; First ward. Messrs.
Charles N. Darnall and Howard Moran,
second ward. r. q. White and o. v. Mitch
ell. and third ward. DR.. Jos. A. Mudd and
VIM. p. Magruder. The mayor and the six
members of the town council are also mem-
bers Of the committee. thus making the to-
tai number thirteen. It is probable that the
committee will be increased by the addi-
ton Of one more citizen from each of the
three wards. This committee will proceed
at once to collect data as to the cost. ETC.,
for a sewerage system. and its report will
be submitted to the citizens at q town meet
ing. II the proposition meets with favor a
bill will be prepared for presentation to the
general assembly Of Maryland in January
next authorizing the issuance Of bonds. 1t
Is probable that the bill will be submitted
to the people at the next municipal election
in May. 1904. for adoption or rejection. At
present Hyattsville has public water sup
ply the equal Of which. so far as the quality
of the water is concerned is not excelled
in this country. The water is taken from
driven wells averaging $50 feet in depth
and Is Of the purest character. The system
has been in operation since January. 1902.
and already tho revenues from the plant
are more than sufficient to meet all the
operating expenses. besides providing funds
with which to meet about two-thirds Of the
interest charges. amounting to 81, 200 per
annum. Over One-half Of the houses are
supplied with water, and applications for
the extension Of the system are received
at every meeting of the town council. 1t is
the general belief that the people will vote
favorably upon the proposition to issue
bonds for sewerage system. IL it can be
demonstrated that a system can be installed
for an amount that can be raised without
too seriously involving the property in
terests here.
The Brentwood Volunteer Fire Depart
ment has purchased q lot near the public
school house upon which to erect a build
ing for the storing OF the fire apparatus
The building will also be used for social
and other gatherings.
The Citizens Association of Brentwood
met Thursday evening at the residence
of Mr.. Conklin and received reports from
various committees outlining work for the
coming winter. Mr.. James B. Galliford
presented an able report on the subject of
sidewalks. their cost and the best methods
OF construction. The report was approved
and steps taken to carry out the suggestions
contained therein. The report Of the street
car committee was also adopted. This re-
port stated that there was reason to be-
lfeve that special fare rate would soon
be given the citizens Of Brentwood to and
from Washington over the City and Subur-
ban railway.
