on the stand by the prosecution to
impeaeh Bartelmann. However, the tes-
timony was admitted and the China
man made some very damaging state
ments as to Bertelmann s business with
him The Chinainan said IN answer
to a question as to what Bertelmann
had represented himself to be:
. He say the money for American
government under new law. He no say
it was for ad in book. First, he ask
me for dollar and l say l have plenty

MILLIONAIRES
ON EARTH

John D. Rockefelier's fortune is not
less than $500 900.
There are now 1O,OS7 known million
aires (more than one-half of whom
5027-are in America), their fortunes
totalling $9,000,000 900. Every state and
territory is represented in the list and
one millionaire. an Indian, Melvin
Dempsen, is in Alaska. Nearly all of the
remaining 5000 millionaires are in Eu-
rope, though Asia has 900 and Africa
and South America each have their
share.
In 1886 Moses Y. Beach printed list
of New York City's rich men. He
gave the names of 1924 possessing $780,
600 each, and of % men with $1,000, 900
each. Now only millionaires are
counted among the rich, and there are
1900 of them in New York City alone.
In Australia Sir Jervoise Clarke has
a sheep ranch worth $150,000,0 900; and
in South Africa abe" Bentley is so
rich that he gave So,ooO,0OO acres of
valuable land as contribution TO the
Salvation Army.
Among the millionaires of London
Sir Thomas Lipton's $4,000 900 is
small fry when compared with es-
tates such as that of the infant Earl
Grosvenor, valued conservatively at
$50, 1000, 900, or that of the premier Duke
of Norfolk, whose income is $500 a
day.
We are drawing no morals in this
article, yet one is forced at least to
think, and think profoundly, when he
learns that there are many very
wealthy men, including forty-nine mill
lionaires, in Russia, and not one in
Japan save the Mikado himself. The
entire nation, according to the Til
Shimpo. Tokio's leading financial jour-
nal, holds but AL fortunes of as much
as $250,0 900 each and these are Japan's
richest. Our Senator Clarke or Mr..
FlagIer could either of them buy out
the entire AL. And yet Japan has no
paupers. Tt is a land Of people we'll
drilled, of farms well titled, of pockets
well filed Their wealth is evenly dis
tributed On the other hand, Russia's
rich are lavishly elegant in their man
ner of living beyond anything mere
has made possible in other
hands. Not a duke or prince of the
blood but INDUCES in magnificent ex-
which make the occidental
gasp with amazement. What has been
said of millionaires generally is at
least true of those of Russia, judging
from the result of Russia's contest with
the japanese; it is that we sorrow,
not that these Russians have so much
money, but that they seem to have
nothing else.
The car has always been called the
richest man in the world, and his for
tune is set at $1,000. 100000, but Muzaf-
far, the Shah of Persia, wears green
stone in his turban worth 1000, and
whatever Persia herself is worth is his.
Considering the growth in indfvid-
ual wealth since the days of Moses
Beach. we are justified in fearing
development of money power during
he next fifty years that will be full of
peril. The safety of nation is in
he diffusion of it's wealth.-From the
Cent Per Cent.

Lawyer Has to Apolog-
ize humbly to the
Court.

That Attorney Strsus failed to be
adjudged in contempt of court yester-
day before Judge Whitney, the police
magistrate, is largely due to the leni-
ency of his honor. The incident came
up in the long-drawn-out case of the
Territory against Frank C. Bertel-
mann, charged with gross cheat.
Judge Whitney charged Straus,
who is counsel for Bertelmann, with
prevaricating. He did not mince his
words at all and scored the attorney,
who up to that time had been playing
to the galleries and resembled
broken down tragedian in reaching
climaxes with witnesses.
It all came about through Mr.. Ny
ers, who for many years was milk in
spector with the Board of Health.
Straus objected to Myers sitting in
the court The court informed Straus
and as he was not conducting the trial
behind closed doors, Myers had per-
feet right to be present.
Straus then seized a subpoena
which had already been served for
other witnesses who had put in an
appearance and placed the name of
Myers and turning to a court officer,
said Electrically:
Mr.. Officer, serve that subpoena!
His Honor shut off this proceeding
by peremptorily ordering the officer
to do nothing of the kind. On ex-
animation of the subpoena it was found
that it had been served on others and
the court informed Straus that it was
dead paper.
Straus vehemently protested and
said that the court was obstructing
him in the performance of his duty,
and added some heated words which
caused Judge Whitney to stiffen in his
chair. He was outwardly calm, but
flush on his cheeks showed that he was
REFRESHING a desire to do something
to the audacious attorney.
His Honor then informed Mr.. Straus
tndt NC was uciipoidIoIy ~ OfdiloaIihS
when he uttered that charge. He
flashed on Straus in manner which |
caused the latter to calm down and |
alf-heartedly apologize.
At various times during the day |
Straus referred to the court s alleged
obstruction in the subpoena matter,
and when the court was about to ad- |
journ, Judge Whitney said:
81 wish to refer again to Mr.. |
Straus' statement about the subpoena
matter. / wish to withdraw the state |
ment that / made earlier in the day
that he deliberately prevaricated, as !,
he has stated since that he had no de- |
iberate intention to prevaricate. How
ever, / wish to state that Mr.. Straus, |
having first said that I INSTRUCTED him :
in any way, made a statement which is
false and without any truth, or scln-
tilla of truth whatever"
Straus by this time had his hat and
smiling sardonically started to walk
out of the courtroom, but thinking
better of it. returned before the bar
and said that he apologlzed for his
words and his conduct, adding that he
did not wilfully prevaricate. In the
heat of controversy we sometimes say
things that we do not mean to say,
and that is what occurred with me. i,
apologize to the court. -
With that he turned on his heels and
walked out of the room.

had recently had lot of white-faced
black Spanish stolen.
| A discussion on pigeons ensued and
as a result it was resolved to charge
| 81 per pair entrance fee for these in
| teresting birds.
| There were quite a number of pigeon
| fanciers present and barbs, fantaiis,
pouters, and runts figured extensively
| in the conversation.
| The number of past exhibitors is ap-
parently large, judging by the popular
form of addressing the chair, AT all
| the poultry shows I've ever seen and
I've exhibited at a great number of
them -
Will E. Fisher suggested that 1t
would provide an additional attraction
for the show if large number of hom-
| ing pigeons were turned loose each day
at a certain hour.
At this juncture a man arose who
or a pigeon a dove. The chair prom
ised to look the matter up and as the
thing stands any dove owners will en-
ter their birds in the pigeon class.
Charlie Frazier stated that he had
, pair of black swans and wanted to
know if they were pigeons or doves. He
was informed that his swans might be
geese, but they were certainly not
~ doyac
Someone asked if there was class
for canaries and yet another would like
to show a choice peacock.
Walter E. Wall wanted a bird to be
allowed to win as many prizes as it
was capable Of He thought that by
this means standards might be i'm
proved and common or dunghill fowl
elimina ted.
He was also in favor of judging by
scoring by card instead of by COM
parison. Scoring, he insisted, would
educate exhibitors as to the good and
bad points of their stock.
Wall also wanted it made possible
to enter a protest against the judges
decision.
IF the judge got jagged" said he,
"such protest would be very much in
order.
Finally he suggested that the rules
of the show, as passed at previous
meeting, be superseded by the rules
governing the American Poultry Also
citation, which he referred to as being
simple and to the point and suiting
the present case precisely.
This was put in the form of mo-
ton and lost.
Fisher moved that the rules govern
ing the exhibition be gone over one at
a time for possible revision.
A. V. Gear opposed the motion, say
ing that the committee had drawn up
the rules after careful consideration ,
and that they should be allowed to gos
at that.
The motion was lost.
Fisher moved that the judging be
done by the score card system. Motion
lost.
Gear in opposing the above motion |
said that later on the score card sys-
tenn might be a good thing, but that il |,
used at the first show might brighten ,
probable competitors away.
j. K. Brown was of the opinion that |
if the judge was to be an Importation |
from the Coast the score card should |
be used. If the judge were a local man
he doubted if he would be able to score !
by card.
c. R. Frazier remarked that a man
who couldn't judge by score wouldn't
be competent judge anyway. /
A motion to import a judge was lost
1t was finally decided to leave the
of a judge to the board of
directors.
