Natural Gas Company.

City Attorney Frank G. Dreaming of
Topeka put in some time at the state
auditors office Friday checking up on
the property of the Kansas Natural Gas
company. He went through the reports
filed by that company, and made list
of their assets.
THE city of Topeka" he explained,
rs likely to have considerable dealings
with this concern, through its subsidiary
company, the Consumers Natural Gas
company. These companies are all the
same thing. I believe. We may want
them to put up a bond, or something Of
that sort, and want to find out Wheth-
er they have got any property, or
whether their property is all wind"

MAsoNs MAY GET PIPE ORGAN.
Also Contemplate Enlarging the Pres
ent Quarters.

The Masonic building on Jackson
street, owned by the Scottish Rite
bodies. may be greatly enlarged in or
der to afford the Scottish Rite larger
quarters, and a large pipe organ will
probably be installed.
The Scottish Rite bodies have under
contemplation a plan to raise the roof
of the building over the rear half, which
= devoted to the stage. If this is done
and the stage is enlarged accordingly
it will be by far the largest stage of
the kind in the state. Another feature
under contemplation is the installation
of a $500 pipe organ in the choir loft
at the east end of the lodge room.

CoFRAN MOVES TO AMEND.
Makes Slight Change in His Reference
to Councilman Holiday.

Ex-Mayor R. L. Cofran said this
morning concerning his interview on the
natural gas situation which was print
ed in Fridays State Journal:
Perhaps 7 put it a little too strong
when I said that Charley Holiday likes
to show his friends a good time with
other peoples money. desire to amend
that statement by saying 'presuma bly,
with other peoples money
7 realize that the statements which
I made we're rather pointed, but am
glad to see that they have seemed to
awaken some of the people of Topeka
to a realization of what is going on in
the city council concerning this natural
gas business"

story of a young man of twenty-five, belonging to
one of the best families in England, who
so deeply in love with a famous woman, just about
double his age, that he attempted suicide in her
mansion in one of the West End squares of Lon
don and would have succeeded but for two Ameri-
cans who. coming there for five o'clock tea, found
him almost diving from narcotic and knew how
to keep him alive until doctor could be obtained.
This young man, who was a subordinate officer in
a smart regiment, went to the Boer War rose rap
idly to a captaincy, the Victoria Cross by his
bravery and is to-day one Of the handsomest and
most gallant officers seen in London drawing
rooms.
The Tennesse Dorfe of America in the opinion Of
the class stand for the eXaltaton of youth No
matter where the millions have been amassed, their
heir starts for New-York to spend them. 1t IS the
American refuge of social liberty, he assumes For
this reason he must be studied in New-York, al
though he halls from other commercial Centers OF
the Republic, or occasionally from the Dominion
on the northward. These young men, born to
large fortunes and frivolous nclinations, divide
themselves into two classes. Members of the first
have social aspirations, and aim to marry and enter
the so-caled Smart Set" They not inter
esting; they are idlers often etfemnate in manners
and weak imitators of the beaus and galants OF
a century ago As a rule, they without generous
impulses, although they severe critics OF the
more rapid Youngsters. Members of the second
group care nothing for social preterment: they seek
only excitement, and many OF them display lnteI1-
gence in its pursuit. -
To be eligible for membership in the knights
of the Golden Circle" a young man must have an
income of at least one hundred thousand dollars
This sum barely sutices to maintain city home
a bachelor apartment membership in few clubs
several automobiles and private carriage. 1t IS
not adequate to set up a raCng-stabe, to keep a
steam-vacht or hunters, to equip and run a
four-in-hand. The limitations of a young man
with no larger income than that many-they
are as clearly defined those of clerk on small
salary For example he cannot afford to spend
more than five thousand dollars year on flowers
or twenty thousand on jewels
The home" must be in a fashionable quarter,
though not necessarily on The Avenue, and sup
piled with a domestic outfit including a house
keeper butler cook and under-servants. Only the
strictest economies will keep the expenses OF this
establishment within twenty-five thousand dollars;
but this pretended "home' supplies an address IN
the social register and for the reception OF

These young men have incomes ranging from
forty thousand to four hundred thousand dollars
or more wear. One hundred thousand among
them IS an income not at all uncommon. And
there Is no stranger element in the great money
civilization of to-day than these fatherless,
spoiled young men, equipped with the tremendous
power OF money in immense quantities. doing
nothing. seeking nothing, and amounting TO nothing,
when they might be made of enormous value to the
community and to themselves. When much
effort IS being spent in East Side settlement work

Many large and handsome apartments or resi-
dences are maintained by these rich young men.
Some of these "dens," they call them,
der-nestS of luxury and art. One suite maintained
by " Johnnie" whose income is more than half a
million contains hundred thousand dollars
worth of paintings selected by the keenest art
expert in America and hung in correct light. Silk
rugs of fabulous value the floors of this apart
ment and the daylight is softened by exquisite
curtains of lace and silk The rents paid fifteen
hundred to five thousand dollars per annun, de-
pending upon locality.

Madison-ave. is preferable or one of the cross
streets between Madison Square and Forty-sXth-st.

restaurants and many clubs To the former the
bachelor host conducts his friends of the fair sex,
and NAV entertain them with dainty suppers at
ten dollars plate, or more elaborate dinners, in
Guiding wines, at twenty-five dollars each service.
But if the young has only hundred
thousand dollars which to enjoy life he must
keep a curb his impulses toward extravaganza,
and not overlook the severe limitations imposed by
so meager an income as two hundred and seventy
five dollars a day. Everything in this world is rela-
tive and many glded youth finds life hard to
bear on less than Quarter-nillon year. racing
stable will cost three hundred and fifty thousand
dollars to stock and at least seventy five thousand
dollars a season to maintain. steam yacht is fig
ured at one thousand dollars day where its
is not undulv lavish Sound Irish hunters cost seven
to twelve thousand dollars each and a host must
have at least half dozen at his country house, if
he would have mounts for his weekend guests. To
keep pack of hounds IS not much of outlay, but
the cost of kennels and the hire of trainers and
veterinarians will amount to fifteen thousand dol
lars year
