PER SONAL.

H. H. Vreeland, president of the
New York Street Railway Company,
never uses a pass on his line, but in
variably pays his fare. Should an I'M
lucky conductor overlook him on his
collecting tour, as conductors frequent
ly do with others in the rush hours,
he would probably bear from the pres
ident's office the next day.
-Apropos of the plea of young
blade that he can not live on $4,000
a year, and that the trustees of the
estate of which he is the beneficiary
should be compelled to treble his al
lowance, IL is interesting to recall the
fact that Mr.. Ruskin, many years
before he died, gave away all his mon
ey, save comparatively small sum-
which he invested in British consuls
that yielded him $1,000 year. That
was an ample income for single gen.
tleman in Mr.. Ruskins estimation.

cosTLIEsT CITY IN THE WORLD.
Lesne's Weekly


New York has the most expensive
city government on record. According
to Mayor McClelIan's first budget, it
will cost New York city $11O,5OO, 900 to
conduct its municipal affairs in 1905.
There are in the neighborhood of A.
100000 inhabitants in New York city
at this moment, allowing literally for
the gain which has been made in
these days of Republican prosperity,
the population in 1900 being 3,437 900.
No other people in the world pay any,
thing like this sum, per capita, for the
expenses of their government.
Canadas 100000 people pay $751;
100000 for running their government in
1904, Mexico's 100000 pay SOS, 0O0, 900
Tor like service. and Brazils 1s,000.-
600 disburse $4,000, 900 for this object.
None of the other countries in the
Western Hemisphere come anywhere
near Mexico's total. Belgium, the
Netherlands, Switzerland, Sweden
Norway and Portugal occupy places of
considerable prominence on the
worlds map. All of them have a
larger population than New York city,
All Of them, on account of the neces-
sites of defense, have to place them
selves under heavy tax burdens, yet
none of them pays as much for gov
eminent as do the people of the
American metropolis. In her various
tributary states and colonial possess
sions Turkey has about 40,O00,O0 peo-
pie, and some of these have aspira-
tions for liberty which lead the home
government pretty strenuous life,
yet Abdul Hamid does not exact
quite so much tribute for the expense
of government as does Mayor George
Is. McClellan'S regime.
The Mikado reigns over $4,000, 900
people who have been preparing for
war for many years, and with a good
deal of effectiveness, as is shown by
their achievements in Manchuria in
the past nine or ten months, yet their
government cost them only $122, 000,-
900 in 1908, or, at our recent rate of
increase, what New York city will
cost in 1908. Back in Jackson's days
this country began to attract consid-
cradle attention from the world at
large, but the cost of running New
York city's government at the present
moment is three times as great as that
of managing the government of the
United States in Old Hickorys time.
At the time that Buchanan stepped
out of power in 1861 the cost of the
United States was $66 900, 900, as COM
pared with the $110, 900 which New
York city's 100000 will pay in 1905.

POPE WORE AMERICAN SHOES.

From the Baltimore Sun, Dec. 8.
In the ceremonies at Rome yester-
day, proclaiming the jubilee of the
Immaculate Conception and the ju-
bilee of the accession of Pope Plus x,
the sandals worn by Pope Plus x were
made in America. This is a striking
tribute to American skill and trade
progressiveness.
The sandals We're presented to the
Pope by the thousands or more pupils
of Jesuit college in New Orleans,
the children of the Mary Sodality of the
Jesuit Church. They raised the money
necessary for the making of the SAN
dals. over $780,.
The sandals are lined with white sa-
tin and finished without in silver leaf
work raised and etched with gold en-
broidery. The leaf work is studded
generously with diamonds, rubies and
sapphires. A pair of white satin forms
has also been prepared to go into the
sandals and preserve their form when
not in use. The sandals are to be worn
only upon state occasions and will
probably repose in the Vatican for
many decades. While not in use they
may be placed in the Vatican Museum
with the masterpieces of ancient art,
the Apollo Belvidere,, the Discus
Thrower and others.
The sandals were designed after the
finest models that could be secured
among the relics and heirlooms of the
old European courts.
Before being sent abroad they were
on exhibition for several weeks in New
Orleans in the Regal shoe store on
Canal street, and attracted much at
tention. The window was artistically
draped with the Pope's colors, and the
sandals reposed in a rich plush case
lined with yellow satin.
The contract for the construction of
the sandals was secured by the Regal
Shoe Company of Boston. This is the
first time in the history of the Vatican
that anything used in its dignified
ceremonies has come from beyond the
walls of Rome.

WILL SHE ESCAPE PUNISHMENT,

Many lawyers are of the opinion that
it VIII be practically impossible to con-
Wet Mrs. Cassie L. Chadwick, the
cleveland woman who obtained so
much money by false pretenses from
greedy bankers and capitalists. of any
offense because she didn't get the
money on the forged Carnegie notes. If
she deliberately planned to get money
without making herself liable to punish
ment, she is much smarter woman
than the great majority of those who
live by their wits. Just how much of
the forged papers there is has not vet
been stated, but there seems to be M
doubt that the amount isn't far from
$2O,OOO,OOO How much money she OBJ
tanned isn't definitely known, but IL
is certain that 1t is more than 81 900 0o0
AS far as yet discovered her chief cred
itors are the Bank at Oberlin, the Mas
sachusetts banker named Newton and a
Pittsburg millionaire There are \
great many creditors, however, who
loaned her sums ranging from a few
thousands to many thousands of dol
lars.
The impression prevails that it was
her hope that Mr. Carnegie would die
before exposure came, in which event
she would insist upon the genuineness
of the notes. There would have been
those. however, who could tell whether
or not the signature to the notes was
| genuine -
get testimony for and against the
genuiness of signatures that IL the forg-
ed signatures closely resembled the
genuine she might have succeeded I'm
her plans, or at least secured a compro-
mise.
There seems to be no foundation ia
that part of Mrs. Chadwick's story that
she gave $2,5OO,00O in securities to her
husband a couple of years or so
ago. There is no evidence that
she gave him anything. The
Chadwick lawyers say that DIR.
Chadwick is now travelling in Europe,
and that he is a poor man. There was
a suspicion at one time that he had
something 20 do with his wife's money
getting operations. If he had the fact
hasn't been discovered.
While the interest I'm the woman and
her case I'm gradually dying out, there
is doubtless a great deal yet to be told
and the hearing that is fixed for next
Saturday before the United States Com
mlssloned In New York city is being
looked forward to with keen interest.

opened the hall door the melodious
voice of his better half greeted him
with this query:

Virginian.
How can you say So" exclaimed his
spouse, when the clock has just
struck %"
"All right said the Virginian, his
voice laundering virtuous indignation.

word of a id Yankee clock against
that of Virginia gentleman you may
do so. but / have my opinion of you'll"

Decnntcrs Were Marked c. o. ID.

A story of British stolidity, says the
Boston Record, is going the rounds.
A certain wealthy American in Lon
don dropped into shop to purchase
a set of decanters.
AS the purchase represented more
money than he had on his person at
the time, he gave his address at the
hotel and instructed the assistant to
mark them c. o. d. The assistant
made note of the request, but the
purchaser was surprised to find the
goods left at the hotel without de-
mand for payment. When the parcel
was unpacked, however, it developed
that each decanter had been beauti-
fully engraved in twining letters, &C.

A woman lecturer before a wom-
ans club in Lebanon, Pa, the other
night made the bold assertion that
most men were wretched failures in
life, because of their grating tenden-
cies. She had especial reference to men
on school boards, but said her deduc-
tions applied to other positions in life
as well as to school directorships.
Men accept school directorships," she
said, merely for the purpose of
working themselves into higher posi-
tions, or because they desire to get po-
sitions for friends or relatives" Ac-
cording to the lecturer, all schools
ought to be put into the hands of wom-
en-, because they have a greater love
for and interest in children. 1t doesn't
do the men any harm to get little
roasting like this sometimes, and it
seems to please the women lecturers.
1t is believed that Mr.. Carnegie will
be requested to go on the witness
stand in the Chadwick case. 1t will
take him long. time to tell all that
he doesn't know about the woman, to
judge from his interviews.

Some of our alleged heavyweight
diplomats at foreign courts are said
to be quaking in their patent leath-

and has gone abroad, that President
Roosevelt has determined to elimi-
nate the after-dinner speakers and
the ornaments of society from the
diplomatic service, and to have only
the Roosevelt brand" of diplomats
after March next. Just what the
Roosevelt brand" embraces is not
quite clear, but it is thought to mean
something like, "Perdicaris alive or
Raisuli dead" Meanwhile it is under
stood that Ambassador Choate at Lon
don is one Of those slated for retire
ment And also meanwhile, it is not
to be lost sight of that social ameni-
ties cut quite an important figure in
modern diplomacy. Even at Washing
ton the diplomat who can give the
best dinner that is managed with the
most tact is the man who has most
influence in the official set and who
comes nearest to getting just what his
country wants.

The wisdom of putting the new
drinking fountains in the squares is
open to serious question. The squares
were designed to be. and should be
made, little beauty-spots of the city,
for flowers. trees and grass. They
should not be marred with drinking
fountains, around the base of each of
which there win inevitably be a puddle
and bare place of trampled earth.
The idea of having convenient drink
ing places scattered throughout the
city is a very good one, but sites for
the fountains should be selected with
an eye to preserving the symmetry of
the parks and squares. Why, indeed,
should not the fountains be put on
the street sidewalks, where neither
puddlemaking nor trampling of grass
would be possible? They would serve
every purpose if SO placed, just as well
as il they were set up in the squares.
The parks and squares have cost the
taxpayers tens of thousands Of dol
Iars-too much to have them needless
ly married.
