that has come into the life OF his father.
Richard Croker as a ward politician fought his
his way up often with his ists until he became the
boss OF Tammany the Democratic ring that has long
ruled and robbed New York city. Judging him
according to his lights, he no worse than other
politicians Of his class and he certainly better
than most Of them in courage, energy and bulldog
tenacity OF purpose. He climbed the highest rung
OF the ladder Of success, he understood success
and although holding>no public Office he became the
actual ruler Of great city. With power, unchecked
by moral scruples came riches greater than he
could need to spend in a lifetime, aud With riches
the hope Of peace and happiness in his old age
He went back to Ireland the land Of his iOreiahers
and built himself palace filed with everything
heart could desire, and stables Of fine horses and
dogs, for he loves animals.
But there was one thing that Richard Croker loved
better than his fine house and fine pets. He loved
his family with affection greater than the love Of
most men. And there is where fate has slruek him
in his most mortal plrt. When his son Frank
Croker, was killed Ia automobile accident ia
Florida last January it was said that the blow al
most broke his father's heart What the death Of
his iavOrte son, Herbert, will be to him only be
appreciated by strong natures who have been bereft
OF their dearest His life drawing to its close
and the happiness he planned and struggled for is
irreYocaby gone. At best the rich man does as the
Psalmist says, ''He reapeth up riches and knOweth
not what shall gather them. Too often al he knows
is that they turn to Dead Sea apples on his lips.
OF all the vanites that allure ana bind them ID
chains slaves the pursuit Of happiness by amass
ing wealth unscrupulOusly is the Vainest.

broadening wOman's field Of usefulness. But it said
to the credit of the fair sex, they have not only
shown much capacity for business, but as
a rule they perform their duties WE'LL and not few
OF them have made themselves well-nigh indispens-

AS yet the women of this section Of the country

the women OF this section advanced sufficiently to-
wards the masculine type to smoke stay out late at
night in attendance upon lodge meetings and acquire
habits peculiar to the opposite sex. So much the
better for the women.
To some parts of the country, however, women
are making wide strides in cutting into fields Of
york which are looked upon as the prerogatives Of
men. In Chicago, for instance, some OF the women
affect the derby hat, the wastcOat sQspenders anO
other masculine attire, and carry canes. That Is
not all: From Illinois comes the following:
''Miss Viola Van Ness, 11S Chicago avenues clad

day. Her deed set all South Evanston talking and
the work was criticised by big crowd TO cheer.
Several weeks ago Miss Van Ness decided the cot

the work. He failed to appear and sent word the
task could not be started for month. Then Miss
Van Ness made up her mind to do the work her

IL report showing how we'll his country
N@sS is prepared for war, say the Kan
sas City Journal. Following on the heels OF Eng
lands representatives to France concerning the lat
ter's alleged violations Of neutrality in Chinese
waters and the cOntemptuOus <cofing threat Of
the Russian press, Premier Baliour has just de-
livered such an exposition OF England's military
strength. This can hardly be taken as bluf for
the English plucky people, iutolerant OF oppo-
stion and ready to fight any sufficient provoca.
tion. It is rather the warning grOwl Of the lion
before he strikes.
At all events, England is grding up her loins for
the struggle which may be precpitated at any
moment between the great powers OF Europe. Mr..
BaliOur significantly tells how General Lord Kitch
enel England's greatest military organizer and ex
ecutve, is in India preparing eight infantry divs-
ons in addition to the ordinary drafts, to protect
Aighanistan against Russian aggression While
disclaiming the belief that such an invasion forms
any part Of the plans Of the Russian government,
Mr. BalfOur points ont that diplomacy has failed to
check Russia's policy Of expansion, which must
now be taken as accepted fact. He served warn
ing that Russia will not be permitted slowly to alb
sorb Aghanstan she has the Central Asian states,
and that her strategic railroads. which creeping
closer and closer to the frontier, will find England
fully prepared for any possible contingency. Pre-
mier BalfOur wound up HE speech with the state
ment that EDgand's home feet which eoald be
made ready within few hours, was strong enough
to repel any possible attempt to land troops on
English soil.
The danger Of war between great Britain and
Russia would seem remote to the ordinary observer
unless the British dragged into the present war
to assist their ally Japan. On the other hand, it
has been argued by international observers and
writer's that Russias immense resources will be left
practically intact, except in respect to finances,
even though defeated by japan, and she may turn
on England in India with the idea Of retrieving her
military prestige.
Since the BOer war England has effected quiet
but thorough reorganization Of her army and navy,
aud her military efficiency il believed to be greater
than ever before. In a recent magazine article Pre-
mier Baliour claimed that Engands artillery strength
is now greater than that OF any other power. AT
sea England's policy has been for years to maintain
navy Of at least twice the strength Of any other
natiOn's and her present strength in guns AMI tom
mage is fully up to that standard.
