AFRAID OF A LITTLE DIRT.
Why Young Men Exhibit No Fond
ness for Horseshoe Trade

ness for Horseshoe Trade
Master horseshoers throughout the
country complain that they are having
difficulty in securing a sufficient num-
Der of young men to learn that trade.
1t takes man of judgment to properly
shoe horse and to comply with all
the regulations governing that calling.
Humane methods of horSeshOeing have
made necessary an amount of study
and experience that most young men
will not undertake and acquire unless
it promises a better position in life
than that of a master horseshoer. The
trouble is that when boys acquire the
education and knowledge called for by
the state regulations they feel that
they are entitled to "a better position
than that of blacksmith. False pride
is at the bottom of most of this feeling
of distaste for the ancient and honor
able trade of the blacksmith. Skilled
horseshoers earn wages far exceedin g
those at the command of workers in
many trades and so-called professions
that are not so dirty" 1t is the CRIME
and sweat that the blacksmith must
dabble in and exude that stand out in
the eyes of too many young men who
are thinking of making a start in life.

opportunity to show his great capacity
for work For weeks he has never
left his Office from about 9: 80 in the

noon unless to attend meeting or to
pay an official visit. Secretary Taft
has told some of his intimates that
he does not believe in the luncheon
meal anyway. When 1 get down to

rid of it, he said. Luncheon is

Small Estates In EnoIand.

1t is considered strange that in Eng
land only one win disposing of as
much as $4,000, 600 had been filed dur
ing the financial year ending March
81. The average number of such wills
has been between five and six. Thus,
in 1900 there were nine estates with a
total of nearly 100000; in 1901,
eight estates, total value more than
$50. 900 900; in 1902, five estates, with
the same total; in 1908, five estates
valued at $40, 0O0,0 900, and in 1904,
three estates valued at SIS, 900 900. OF
twenty-four of the richest testators
only one was under go years of age
when he died; fourteen were over 20
years old and six more than so years.
The average age was 741k years. John
Dawson, who left $3,50O,O0O, was 80
years old The earl of Strathmore,
aged 70 years, left $4,751 900.

MOURN LOSS OF JEFFERSON.
Veteran of the Stage Beloved by All
Theater-Goers.

Theater-Goers.
Joseph Jefferson was undoubtedly
the best loved of American actors. The
Dlder generation of theater-goers re-
member him as the leading exponert t..
If not the originator of a new school
of acting in which simplicity took the
place of traditional stage art and man
nerisms. The younger generation re-
members him as Rip Van Wrinkle, a
character which he made ever more
attractive as he grew older.
In the late SOS Jefferson was asso-
ciated with the most popular players
Of the time. Those who were with
him on the stage and those who heard
him felt the influence of his new meth
cd. 1t appealed to the most artistic.
the most critical, as well as the hum
blest of playgoers.
This quality of Jefferson'S playing
attached actors and people to him
when he first played Asa Trenchard,"
In 1858, as it did when he first played
rip Van Winkle,'' seven or eight
years later. On this point the recol-
lections of Edwin Booth, Couldock.
Sothern, Boucicault and Raymond as
to first impression are not notably diff
ferent from those of the unsophisti-
Gated enthusiast from the country or
the playworn first nighter of the city.
The art of Jefferson touched ali,
and certain modulations of voice and
simple gestures and poses gave keen
est pleasure every time they were re-
membered.
Only those whose memories cover
forty years can understand what JEFF
ferson's rip Van Winkle'' meant to
= L
was like a revelation to the infre-
quent theater-goer. and did more to
break down prejudice against the
stage than any other play ever pre-
sented.
Clergymen and thousands of men
and women who had never entered a
theater counted it an event in their
lives to see Jefferson in RIP Van
Wrinkle" Men did not know why they
laughed and cried like children, and
they did not care. There was a magic
in the drama that had been there be-
fore. and Jefferson was the magician
At first it was Jefferson the actor
that the people loved. Then they came
to love Jefferson, the man. rip Van
Wink1e' was means of revealing to
old and young personality as whole
some in its influence as any ever asso-
ciated with the stage
In summing up Jefferson's career
it is enough for people to say rip
Van Winkle.' Called upon to give
him rank among the great actors of
the world. ninety-nine out of a hun
dred people would count it superfluous
to say more than RIP Van Wrinkle .
And yet RIP Van Wnkle'' would not
mean so much to the world, could not
hold first place in so many hearts, had
it not been for the consummate art.

human nature of the very human old
