Samuel w. Nichols, editor Of tho
Jacksonville Journal. has probably
made more persons happy through his
benevolence than any other man In
America, says a dispatch from Jack
sonville, ILL., He might have been a
rich man. AS it is, he is prosperous.

income away.
He delights in making others happy
That was why lie recently put 43O
Jacksonville school children on a train
and took them t) st. Louis. He paid
all the expenses of the trip. provided
the lunches and supplied the ear fare
for the tour of Shaws garden, Forest
park and the retail and wholesale dis
tricts Of the city. 1t was a glorious
outing for the little ones, 90 per cent
Of whom bad never been out Of Jack
sonville before. 1t is a frequent occur

friends on excursions

Mr. Nichols has aided over half a
hundred women to get an education.
Many years ago he conceived the idea
OF establishing a playground for the
children Of the place, and couple Of
years ago he provided such place at
cost Of $4,000.
Last year, during the worlds fair,
Mr. Nichols brought 400 children TO st.
Louis and paid their way until they
had seen the whole of the big show
Toward the holidays Mr.. Nichols is
especially busy. He goes to the teach
ers IN the public schools and the over
seer of the poor and gets the names Of
all the poor children in the city. Then
he buys dolls by the hundreds, candy
by the hundredweight, oranges by the
box, knives by the dozens, games,
books and everything that delights the
childish heart and then distributes
them in a manner to attract as little
attention as possible.
Mr. Nichols is very plain and unas-
suming almost careless regarding his
personal appearance.

RECEIVERS FOR

OF SEVERAL STATES.

New Orleans, Jan. 3.-The New

ceivers for the street railways COM
pany of New Orleans, is bringing suits
simultaneously in New Jersey, New
York and federal courts here. Presi-
dent E. c. Foster, of the railways
company, and Pearl Wright, local
merchant, were appointed receivers.
The state recently sued to annul
the corporation which sought to con-
solidate all the local lines of street
railways and capitalize the concern
at eighty millions, the Fairchilds and
ether eastern capitalists being inter
ested. A compromise was finally pro.
posed TO reduce the capitalization TO
sixty millions. This was presented to
the New York bOndholders, who pro-
posed a reorganization plan assessing
the preferred and common stock. This
has not yet been acted upon, but the
securities company took the matter
TO court to forestall outside action and
protect itself. No payment was made
