A dark-eyed boy in knickerbockers
spoke these lines one day nearly fifty
years ago in the little high school at
Fairhaven, Mass It was his favorite
piece" When he came to the words,
Now hang me- he stamped his right
foot and his eyes cleaned with deter
mination The boy was Henry H. Rog-
ers. When he was not in school he was
earning fifty cents a week in odd Jobs,
such as energetic boys find to do about
a town.
That boyhood wish uttered in the poem
has come true. Today Mr.. Rogers has
a treadmill of his own He sits at a
desk in a New York skyscraper, con-
trolling the oil industry of the United
States. He Is the storm center of vast
financial interests. At his command and
his manipulations markets rise and fall
and corporations tremble. He is worth
as many million dollars as he earned
cents a week in the bygone Fairhayen
days.
When a boy Mr. Rogers believed in
the concentration of power. He organ
lied his schoolmates for offensive and
defensive purposes. One of the games
was playing war. When he left school he
became a clerk in the Union Grocery
store. 1t was one of a chain of stores
throughout the state that, by means OF
combination, was able to buy goods lower
than individual competitors and thereby
undersell them This idea made a pro-
found impression on him as he weighed
sugar and counted eggs. 1t has been
a cardinal business principle with him
ever since. lie fas waged relentless
business conflict and always marshalled
his forces so that competition has been
made impossible. Business with him Is
war. He Is today the active head of the
Standard Oil company, around whose
far-fung battle line a great industrial
combat is being fought.

last night, and for awhile threatened
to become disastrous.

brigade when the alram sounded, the
fire gained but little headway. The
night was unusually calm, with no

have been destroyed. The loss is very
slight.

IN JAIL FIVE MONTHS.
j. l.. Iadukc Released md Going Ia
Rutland for 10 Days.

James l.. Ladukc, who has the record
of having been arrested for drunkenness
more times than any man OF his age in
burlington. was in city court Fri
day afternoon to make further dis
closure as to VINO sold or gave him the
liquor upon which he last became drunk.
Laduke has been in Jail over five moh,hs,
staying there for tho first few weeks Of
his own accord and later staying there
because Judge Mower did not believe
the story he told in court.
Friday I.adukc repeated his first
story about getting the liquor from a
man he had known several weeks ard
who had been at his house over night
hose name he did not know. When qies-
toned as to why he did not make a dis
closure in the first place. Laduke said
nc remained in Jail because his wife had
brought a civil suit in which he wanted
to hc a witness and he knew that II h.
went to Rutland they could not AFFORD
the expense OF having him come t.
burlington to testify.
Judge Mower remarked that Mrs
I.adukc had consulted with him hut had
never mentioned civil action claiming
| always that f4aduke was staying in ja
, in order to shield the man who gave him
| the l1uor. Judge Mower further said hs
| did not believe the story Laduke ha,
told about the man of whom he got tn,
\ liquor but that it was his opinion that il
| WAS no punishment for Ladukc to h,
in Jail getting his board from the State
lie therefore discharged Ladukc so faI
as the disclosure Is concerned. l.adukt
was taken to Rutland Saturday :,
