MYSTERY OF MONEY
SUBJECT ABOUT WHICH LITTLE
is REALLY KNOWN.
Proper Methods of Acquiring 1t, or Its
Wsest Use, Are Matters Upon
Which the Wisest Differ-Has No
Power to Confer Happiness.

For centuries the economists have
been disputing about the definition
and offices of money, says the Wall
Street Journal There are almost as
many different theories of money as
there are schools in theology. There
seems to be an immense difficulty in
comprehending just what money is,
what 1t does in facilitating the ex-
changes of the world and what is its
influence upon prices. Here is the
most practical and substantial thing in
the world, an article which is in uni
versal use, and which is most eagerly
sought after by people Of every cline
and race, and yet how little we know
about it! Even now no one can tell
exactly how much currency country
needs to carry on it's business and how
large should be the reserves of gold
against the bank reserves. Even
bankers, whose business all the time
is to deal in money, as others deal in
merchandise, are liable to become
hopelessly confused in a discussion
lie it's use.
Strange to say, the confusion which
attends an economic study of money,
also attends any discussion of the
ethics of money. All the philosophy
in the world has not answered the
question of how much money 1t is
wise for man to possess. How wide.
ly men differ-even our scholars and
moral instructors--as to the proper
methods of acquiring wealth. We
even dispute as to the wisest use of
money. We are not agreed as to the
distribution of money in charity. 1t
would seem as if the commonest, the
most universal tool of man, was the
one thing that plagued him the most.
But this is not all. Useful, indis-
pensable as money is, there IL moth
ing which is more constantly put to
an evil use, or which is more likely
to destroy the man who uses 1t. There
is something about money which de-
files nearly all who touch it. There
are, indeed, some rare souls that are
immune to its corrupting influence
but the great body of mankind are
susceptible to it's corroding power
Both lack and superiority, both poverty
and riches, seem to destroy the finer
fibers of the SOUL The individual who
has the most chance of throwing off
moneys baneful influence is he who
stands midway between superfuity
and poverty.
Money is a microbe that poisons
the blood and perverts the mind and
heart of a man. No one is happy
without it, and yet no one is really
happy who possesses much Of it. The
more one gets the more he wants
Money getting becomes a passion. II
fastens itself upon one like a habit
Even the opium eater is not more in
control of a demon than one who has
got the "itch for money" He becomes
a slave to the very thing which is
intended to be his tool. The disease
affects different people differently
Some it makes sordid, penurious
mean. Others it leads to lavish dis
play and extravaganza. Some use il
for mere luxury. Others enjoy it fol
it's power. Nearly all, in one way OF
another, are changed and often pollut
ed by the possessions of wealth.

RAILWAY CONDUCTORS PICNIC,
Their Annual Outing at Milburn Was

The annual picnic given yesterday
under the auspices of the Order OF
Railway Conductors Of the Rock Is
land railroad. on the banks Of the
Blue river at Milburn, forty miles
east of ArGmor1 was one o. the most
successfully arranged and thoroughly
enjoyable affairs of its kind thai II is
possible TO get up. The eNtIa coaches
were carried out from Ardmur1 on the
carly morning train for the accom-
uSlda; ion Of eNCursionistg, while "A
"pccial train of ten coaches left the
main line AZ Haneyyille with the
railroad men and their families, both
trains arriving at the picnic grounds
about II o'clock. The South McAlester
band accompanied the conductors 5
tdain Ind furnished .bst elccllent
music throughout the day
The Milburn Commercial Club had
made all possible preparation in the
way of amusemCuts, barbecue, etc for
dinner on the ground Many Of the
railroad men, with their wives and
daughters, joined in the onCuair dane
ing in thorough abandon TO the free
and easy good time prevalent on cy-
cry hand. while others. who were pro
vided with fishing tackle, busted them
selves up and down the river banks.
The speeches Of the day were in keep
| ing with the temperament of the merry
makers apd all seemed TO enjoy them,
selves very much
The picnic grounds are located on
the east side OF the river about four
hundred yards from the station, but
the trains delivered the pleasure
seekers TO the ground and called for
them al the same place, which, by the
way, was not until about 10 o'clock
in the night, when both west and cast
hound picniCkers departed IN the very
best Of spirits.

a profitable investment OF money in the
erection Of modern hotels in the
Quaker City.
In answer to this crying need the
Hotel Walton was the first hotel to be
erected, which was followed by the en-
largement of the old St. George into
the Hotel Stratford, then came the st.
James, the Flanders, the enlargement
of the Bingham House, and finally the
elimination of all reasonable expecta-
tions was reached when the Bellevue
Stratford threw its doors open to the
public, after an expenditure of some
three millions of dollars. / therefore
recommend, Mr.. President, the appoint
ment of a strong committee Of this
mittee upon hotels, whose duty it
should be to wage such a propaganda
of publicity as will bring the desired
results.
Mr.. Martindale made a number of
other recommendations, among which
were the building of small pavilions
and seats along the boardwalk, between
the North Wildwood Land Company's
office and the Hotel Ottens, the trans
formation of the old dancing and
restaurant pavilion on the west side of
the railroad into a woman's seaside
home, where poor but worthy women
could be accommodated at a rate of
something like 50 per week, that a
