terest to his assertion that, all his life
he has been unable to find the ideal
editor. For the reason that he can
not find his ideal. he explains, he has
decided to postpone the beginning OF
his school of journalism until after his
death. About year ago he set aside
the sum of one million dollars for such
a school to be established at Columbia
university, and promised to give an
additional million toward the endow-
ment fund later on. But he has not
not been able to agree with the au-
thorities of Columbia as to the person
mel of the faculty of his proposed
school. hence his announcement that
his donation viii not be used until af-
ter his death.
Meanwhile, it is the judgment of the
newspaper profession that If the school
of journalism is not to be started un-
til the ideal editor has been found for
the head OF the institution, it will not
be started until long after Mr.. Pulit-
ger has passed away. 1t is newspaper
history that the great chief OF the
World has been vigilant in his search
for the ideal editor, for his own pa
per. One man after another has worn
out his life on that journal, giving up
the best that was in him. and stepping
aside for a successor. 1t is likely that
if Mr.. Pulitzer should conclude that
he had found his ideal at last, Mr..
Ideal Editor would be already worn
out. The difficulty in finding the ideal
man exists because no two judges
would agree on all the qualifications
ecessary-probably it would be i'm
possible for Mr. Pulitzer himself to
define exactly what he wants. Posi-
bly, by the St. Paul Globes summing up
of the World propriteors requirements
approximately fits the case:
I'VE are rot advised as to the pro-
portions of Mr.. Pulitzers ideal edi-
tor, but should judge by the expe-
rience of the publisher that he should
be man with the mind of a philoso-
pher. the heart of a poet, the muscles
of Hercules; possessing the experience
that banishes all illusions, yet believ-

rlr. PuIitzer's Ideal Editor.

Measured by the accumulation OF
dollars, Mr.. Joseph Pulitzer proprietor
of the New York World, is the most
successful newspaper publisher living.
When he went to New York from Mis-
souri, and bought the World ION time
from the late Jay Gould for $4,000,
he had practically no capital and the
paper, without circulation, was losing
money. Its present circulation exceeds
that of any other daily, and Mr. Pulit-
ger is many times a millionaire. That
he has a peculiar genius for The news
paper business cannot be doubted. He
knows how to select good editors, good
reporters and good business managers.

he has never employed anybody who
could improve on his own trenchant
style of editorial writing. His expe-
rience, therefore, lends additional in

CORONER SUnnOAED
But 1t Was a Formal Rather Than e
Tragic Case.

Jose Encinas died yesterday morning
about 7:15 O'clock at his home on
south Sixth avenue after a severe i'll
ness of about twenty-four hours. No
one had seen him for three quarters
of an hour before and when the un-
dertaker was called he reported the sit
Uation to the coroner, thinking an in
vestigation would only be a measure
of safety. Governor Burnett summon
ed a jury and a physician and an in
quest was held yesterday afternoon
the verdict being death from natural
causes, it being very clearly shown
that death resulted from heart dis
ease.
The dead man was fifty-fve years
old and was very well known in the
community. The principal testimony
at the inquest was that of a daughter
who was with him most of the night be-
fore. She said her father had been af-
fected with heart disease to some ex-
tent for several years and frequently
complained of choking spells. He had
at various times taken medicine for
his trouble. Monday afternoon he went
up to the S F. p & p. round house
where some children were loading coal,
and assisted them somewhat. While
there he had an alteration with some
body, but no blows were struck. His
daughter said he refused to reply to the
insults offered him and came home but
when he arrived there he was very
much excited and had a fainting spell.
A physician was sent for but was busy
and could not come and then the old
man sent for a Chinese doctor who
gave him a herb preparation. 1t was a
four ounce bottle and the instructions
were to take half of it first and the
rest fifteen minutes later. He took
the first dose about 5 80 Monday even
ing. The most of the rest of it was
taken in a subsequent dose but there
was a couple of teaspoonfuls left in the
bottle which the coroner took charge
of.
The effect of the medicine was ex-
IRENE nausea, made worse no doubt
by the fact that Encinas had been
drinking a little on Sunday. He vo
mitted frequently all night long and
could hardly lie down sitting on the
side of the bed most of the night. This
incident at first aroused the suspicion
of some of the jUrymen who thought
the medicine ought to be analysed. The
symptoms however so clearly defined
heart disease that the Chinese medi-
cine man was absolved of suspicion.
The Chinese remedies, it is said, are
mostly herb and the quantity that
could be taken in two doses, prepared
as they prepare it, could scarcely prove
very harmful even if it did no good.
That at least seemed to be the opinion
