They lay on others the fruit Of their

cent persons, who never dreamed Of

some unfortunate word or momenta-

unfortunate. 1t is far wiser to take
the more charitable view of our fell
low beings, and not suppose that a
slight was intended unless the neg

too, life takes its hues in a great de-
gree from the color of our own
mind If we are frank and gener-
Gus, the world will treat us kindly
il, on the contrary, we are suspic-

The Irish standard., 1906-04-07

as though Chicago was bound ultimate
ly to acquire its street railways. One
thing is certain and that is that no
mayor or city council will in the future
dare to give away to private corpora
tons valuable franchises without ade-
quate compensation. The people of
Chicago are in the van on questions re-
lating to municipal ownership. Other
cities are looking on. The success or
failure Of Chicago will have much to
do with determining what action the
people of other cities will take in refer
ence to public service corporations.
Mayor Dunno has fought hard fight.
He has been persistent in keeping this
issue uppermost in the minds OF the
people of Chicago. He has not won as
great victory as he expected to. but
the victory is sufficient to show that
the people have not changed their ideas
in reference to municipal ownership,
even though there are so many great
obstacles to overcome.

Definition Of a Gentleman.

1t will be remembered that u man
who died recently in Joplin, Mo-, left a
bequest Of $4,000 for the purpose Of
distributing Mark Twain's definition
of Il gentleman among members of the
Y. NJ. c. a. In an address to the Y.
NJ. G. \. of New York, Mark Twain
took occasion to refer TO this incident
and to pay IL beautiful tribute to his
old Irish coachman and friend. He
said
Here is /; telegram from Joplin. Mo-.
and it reads: In what one of your
works can be found the definition of
a gentleman I never attempted to
define Il gentleman. ! do not know
exactly what it is. or course. if they
were To give me the $4,000 I would
endeavor to find Il definition. 1t seems
to me that there was a verse read
here from the Bible about justice,
mercy-what was that third one?-
yes, kindness. 1t seems TO me that if
any man has just, merciful and kindly
instincts that he would be gentleman,
for he would need nothing else in this
world"
Continuing. Mr. Clemens read from
IL letter from William Dean Howells.
in which he said:
II see you lave been burying Pat
rick. suppose he was old. too
There was silence then. and after 4
minute Mr. Clemens almost whispered:
NO, he was :.ever old-Patrick. He
came to us thirty-s six years ago. He
was my coachman on the morning that
| drove my young bride to our new
home. He was Il young Irishman.
slender, tail. lithe honest, truthful: and
he never changed all his life.
AS the children grew up he was
their guide. He was all honor, honesty
and affection. He was with US in New
Hampshire last summer, and his hair
was just as black. his eyes just as blue.
his form just as straight and his heart
just as good as on the day we first

I'm all the long years Patrick never
