And now a federal grand jury

investigate the alleged land and

we hope it will go into the mat

do not mix we'll. The girl who is
looking for a husband will find that
money or position makes little differ
ence and that she is more likely to
find happiness in her own class than
in another. If she is ignorant and
marries a bright and highly educated
man she is likely to be despised: If she
is bright and marries a boor or
fool she will despise him. Mutual re-

Intalliaence Of a Crow.

it to a large degree
Each morning the bird flies to its
masters bed room window and utters
shrill cries to awaken him, but will
never go toward the window again
during the day. Whenever hungry he
flies to the kitchen and keeps UP a con-
tinual squawking until fed. He refus-
es TO fly away and so far as known has
never been more than quarter of
mile from his adopted home.

from neighboring fields did their ut

master, Mr.. Crow refused to stir.

Elements of Success.
TLeslie's Weekly.l

The published lives of many success
full men read like collections of anec-
dotes intended to emphasize the i'm
portance of sort of God-given gen.
ius for doing the right thing at the
right moment; but critical exam1r-
alton of these biographies in the light
of modern research shows that their
Judgments were often in error, their
abilities sometimes only second rate,
their methods antiquated, and useless
and their lack of good common sense.
in some emergencies, peculiarly great.
When these failings are properly cat
alogued along with their gifts an av
erage of the man can be reached. Then
we can get pretty fair idea of what
clements or combination of elements
made them successful.
There are very few anecdotes relat-
ed about j. Pierpont Morgans early
life and his business career prior to
the time when he became public
character has never been exploited
much in print. One reason for this is
that the man is quiet and uncommu-
NEGATIVE about what he considers is
not of any interest to the public. He
will not talk Of his past personal
achievements or failures 1t is hard
to secure anything more than the
briefest interview with him and usu-
ally that comes to the paper thru one
of his secretaries or personal friends.
One Of the latter, however, gives cur
rency to the story that failure always
made Mr.. Morgan quiet and morose,
and that he rarely referred to such ex-
periences even in after life, when con-
spicious successes had fairly wiped
them out. While it made him quiet
and morose, failure to carry out any
of his plans always stirred him to
such strenuous efforts that he was
usually more formidable than before.
II have seen Mr.. Morgan under
many trying. conditions" remarked the
personal friend to the writer, "and he
has exhibited traits Of self-control that
half won the battle for him. The nu-
merous consolidation schemes which
he has engineered thru successfully
were nearly always preceded by fall
ures. That is, bitches and obstacles
were reached which practically multi
fed all the work achieved in years of
tireless efforts. A good many Of his
business associates were ready to
abandon the game at these critical mo-
ments, and they said as much in ac-
rimonious words, almost accusing Mr..
Morgan Of betraying them into
schemes which were not feasible. But
they lived to see the day when they
regretted their words and actions.
They also learned something of the
value of a character which does not
hesitate in the face of an apparent
failure. Instead of abandoning the
schemes Mr.. Morgan proceeded to APP
proach the questions from other points.
In nearly every instance he removed
the obstacles and opposition and quiet
ly accomplished his purpose. It is
this quality Of the man which today
inspires such respect for him. His
theory seems to be that if you can't
cut across lots go around them, for
there is always more than one way
to reach anything in this lie"
That is motto, after all, which
every one might adopt with a fair as
surance of success

Mr.. cARNEelE,s NIECE.

When recently Mr.. Carnegie's favor.

his preference for clean and honest
workingman over a decayed and inn.
poverished duke and went on to H.
logically express distaste for rich
men, who, he is reported to have said,
are not wanted in the family of which
he is the natural chief.
Mr.. Carnegie's way of looking at
split milk is full of hard Scotch sense.
The foundation Of happy marriage is
one man and one woman and nothing
else counts in the final analysis.
Doubtless Miss Carnegie has a better
matrimonial bargain in her riding
master than Anna Gould in her French
count or than Nellie Grant made long
ago when her fathers prominence at
tracted Sartoris. At any rate the trick
had been turned and Mr.. Carnegie's
canniness saw quickly the best way
out and took it. The future happiness
of the pair, like that of every pair
mated since the world began is Of their
own making. Mr.. Carnegie's approval
or disapprova. are only incidental. If
the young man is upright and intelli-
gent and sincere in his affection for the
Carnegie girl and makes her a good
husband she has made an excellent ex-
change when she traded the prospect
of social and financial eminence for
ordinary every day happiness. The
personal equation is the whole thing,
1t all depends on the man and the wo-
man.
There is however, a real danger in
class miscegenation. The educated.
wealthy and refined girl who marries
head groom takes chances on Bit
ter disappointments. The Carnegie
riding master may be the prince of
grooms, a male Cinderella counter
part of the squire of low degree who
welded the kings daughter of Hun
yaree." Nevertheless we shall, all of
US, continue to wonder why, if he is
all that fancy and Mr.. Carnegie paints
him, his ambition was satisfied with
mental position and hope that our
own daughters will not incline to Miss
tCarnegie's example. True enough "a
mans man for a. that" but it is
without the accessories of simple
fare" and holden gray" To be a
groom or wear bad hat is no better
certificate Of character than to be
something broader and wear broad
cloth.
Mr.. Carnea!e's criticism of the rich
is too sweeping. Too many men ac
quire with wealth the habits Of the
knave and fool but refinement. and
gentility and honesty are not the ex-
elusive property of one class nor vice
and Dishonesty the hall mark OF an

formed by the president within a
specified period at distanace from
the seat of government established
by law While declining to give a

President Grant sent a memorandum

ing how many days every president

away from the capital during his term.
and what executive duties were per-
formed during those absentees. The
memorandum shows that presidential
vacations are by no means modern
practice. Washington was away from
the seat of government 18l days dur
ing his term. John Adams was absent
1856 days. Jefferson INDUCED freely

was absent 637 days; Monroe, 70S:

formed many important official acts,
and in no instance did the interests
of the country suffer.
