THE ROADS TO SUCCESS.
Three Men Took Customers Away
 From Their Employers.
From the Washington Post.

From the Washington Post.
 "There are many roads to success" said the lean and hungry Cassius, who was holding up one end of the mahog- any bar 'The longer I live the less believe in a simon pure gilt edge rise. You look at this man and that say ing how beautifully he has succeeded by his own pure efforts. It's a miracle and an admiration until you find out all the circumstances. You don't need Q legislative inquiry to establish the fact that success is mostly a lovely damsel down to the waist, but she terminates in a scaly fish tail compound of rebates. ingratitude, and chicane.
 Give an instance? A hundred if you like, but I am thinking just now of three come employers.
 Not long ago there was an oculist working for a Maiden lane firm; he ex- amined eyes and fitted glasses at me- dium stipend, with the prospect of be- ing a hired man all his life. He was enamored of the fish tall lady. He de- termined to woo and win her at any cost.
 His device was merely to copy his
 
 book At the end of three years he had thousand names and addresses. Then he quit hired a lttel office uptown, and wrote to the thousand customers that Dr. Jones had moved his shop and would gladly prescribe for them at the old rates gsslsl
 "The customers were agreeable. The old firm has lost most of its business, and Dr. Jones rides in a forty-horse power car.
 "The second case refers to a law stu dent. who worked his way up in the same firm from office boy to admitted attorney. He owed everything to his employers.
 Soon atfer being admitted to the bar he left the shop and put up his own shingle. He immediately began to fish for the clients of the old firm whom he had known for years. For the sake of appearances he does this on the quiet, and for the sake of superior inducements he cuts rates in CTS heart disease. These rising young men have no sympathy with the union schedule
 .Then there is the eminent and wealthy wholesale chemist, who was an office boy fifteen years ago. They thought he was a fool because he didn't empty the vast paper basket prompt ly, and used to practice writing by copying the names on old envelopes
 But, in fact, he was developing a gold mine from that waste paper basket He got hundreds of choice addresses. He set up for himself in small way, and induced the old customers to trade with him. Today he is happily welded to suc- ces sand has a large family of little suc- cesses.
 Now you might say that all these cases merely indicate the first step; 1t took merit to go on. might answer that the men who take such first steps probably repeat the trick at every part of the stairway. l wish" concluded the cess and has large family of little suc- other drink, that certain of my own past approaches to the fnacial damsel had been more refined and in keeping with dignity"

Fighting Which Is Sure

White Rapids Indian settlement are
alleged to be indulging- of get
ting Indians drunk and then watching
the fights that follow.
According to Peter Martin, war
canoes, revelry, and fights have re-
Gently become frequent on the reserva-
ton. Martin is himself an Indian, but
the trouble stirred up by his brother
red men after drinking fire water is
causing him to fear for. his life and
he has applied to the authorities here
for protection.
Despite the fact that the sale of
liquor to Indians is forbidden by the
government, a man employed by a
Wausaukee saloon keeper has recently
taken large quantities of liquor to the
settlement, in consequence Of which. it
is alleged, the Indians are becoming
badly demoraliZed.

Man Whose House Was Bombarded
Fires at the Throwers with More
or Less Effect.
Marion, Ind, Dec. 49, - For two
weeks the family of George Miller, in
West Vile street, have been the vic
tins of two unknown men, who hurled
stones through the windows. Miller
prepared for visit, and when a stone
was hurled through the window, bare
ly missing a small child, he seized his
shotgun and succeeded in getting out
of the house in time to see two men
running. Miller shot one of them, and
shot at the second, but he escaped I'M
injured. The man who was shot was
assisted in getting away by his COM
paniOn.
Miller notified the police, and, accom-
panied by officers, he followed a blood
trail to point in Meridian street,
where it is thought the men escaped
in buggy. Mr.. and Mrs. Miller can
not assign any cause for the attack on
their home. They say they have no
knowledge of the identity of the par
ties. The house shows signs of many
attacks. The windows are broken and
the Notwithstanding is split in many
places.

DRIVEN BACK TO SLAVERY
Chinese Woman Must Be DepOrted in
Spite of What She Says Is
Sure to Happen.

Washington, Dec. 19.-The supreme
court of the United States has dis
missed for want of jurisdiction the
case of All Sou, a Chinese woman re-
siding in Seattle, Wash, who was or
dered deported in 1903 The woman al
legged that she had been brought to this
country as the slave of Chinaman
who compelled her to lead an immoral
life; that breaking away from him
she had become the wife of another
Chinaman, and that if returned to Chi
ma her master would assert his control
over her.
The United States district court re-
vOked the order of deportation, but the
circuit court of appeals reversed that
decision, and this latest action will
have the effect of affirming the de-
cision of the court of appeals.

TOO MANY IRONS in THE FIRE
That Is What Seems to Have Been the
Matter with Walsh.

That Is What Seems to Have Been the
Matter with Walsh.
The Chicago National bank was Or
ganized in November, 1891, with an
authorized capital Of 100000, which
was increased to $4,000 in 1887, and
$1,O0O,OOO in 1901. The Home Savings
bank was organized in 1867 with q
capitalization of 100000. II existed
for many years as an Independent In
stitution, and about twelve years ago
became a part of the Chicago Nation
al bank. 1t was primarily savings
institution. The Equitable Trust COM
pany was chartered in 1887 to act as
administrator, executor, trustee and to
receive and execute trusts of every
character.
The Chicago National bank has been
an active factor in local politics for
several years and the enormous funds
received from the taxation for the
building and maintenance of the drain
age canal have been part Of it's de-
posits and have been available for in
vestment by the bank. A change was
recently made in the political complex
ion of the bank and it was understood
that these funds would not remain for
any length of time as deposits in the
Chicago National bank. Their impend-
ing withdrawal had much to do with
the fear of the other banks of far
reaching collapse if they did not come
to the aid Of the weakened institu-
tons.
The enterprises which are generally
credited with being the indirect cause
of the financial troubles of Walsh are
the Bedford Quarries company, Of In
diana, and the Southern Indiana Rail-
road company, which was construct
ed by Walsh for the purpose of send
ing the stone from his quarries to the
market. This railroad was constructed
by Walsh at a heavy expense some
years ago. because he believed that the
Monon railroad, which was the only
outlet of his stone Quarries, was charg-
ing him too high a rate of freight.
In addition to these two enter
prises. which he practically owns,
Walsh is a heavy stakeholder in the
Akron Gas company. Akron, o.; Illi-
nois Southern Railway company, Rand
NcNally company, Southern Indiana
company. and in half score
of gas, electric lighting and coal min
ing companies.
To the stone quarries and the South
ern Indiana railroad Walsh made re-
peated heavy loans of the funds Of
the bank, and it was these to which
objection was made by Comptroller
Ridgely. Repeated assurances by the
officers of the bank that these loans
would be called in, or at least largely
curtailed, were not fulfilled, and final
