The question "what IS suecess7" is
answered by careers which have been
guided in greater or less degree ~
other gods than money Many men
who have given proof Of hard-headed
padiated money In others 1t has

the business career.
There could hardly have been
palmer case OF a man knowing how
to make his way in the world than
that Of John Burroughs, the natural
ist When he was fourteen years old.
says c. p. Clarke in the Denver News,
he made up his mind to work until he
got a competence, 80 that he could do
" hat he liked afterward-what he
liked being his nature studies. He
began by teaching to pay his way
through seminary. He worked on
a farm and taught until he got a
place in the treasury department. He
stayed there nine years. saving his
money until he finally got into a
bank. Frem here no was appointed
bank examiner. and considered It
only an opportunity ta save little
money on which he could retire.
When he had saved enough he
bought fruit farm, which he worked
into paying condition. Since then
he has devoted himself to his studies,
and, although the owner Of real es-
tate aud having a good income from
copyrights, his success is great only
when measured by his influence.
Il consider" says he. "the desire
which men have for money only an
error of mind The wish for such
things does not mean anything except
lack OF a higher taste. The man who
gets peace OF mind and gratifes finer
tastes and feelings is much more sue
.oessful than the man who neglects
these and only gets money
To less degree the money interest
has been absent from the life Of Sen.
ator Beveridge. He believes it is not
worth while to amass money and to
be rich Is not one of his ambitions.
He owns one piece of real estate, and
that is worth but s2,500. However.
he makes good income from his
writings. and as lawyer he made
easily $4,000 year BIT although
he was widower for years. ana was
not in public life, he spent all he
earned.
when his struggles and selfde-
malls are considered, one knows his
lack OF wealth is not caused by shift
{ llessness. He began to work when he
was fourteen and helped support his
mother, doing the hardest of farm
drudgery Afterward he put himself

stage 10 hts activities. and his own
mind became conscious OF a new
force
He went from one city to another
clectriiying car lines and pouring
electricity into the streets. and sent
the hum OF his great cars from one
end Of the continent to the other
This was the first chapter in his new
dream Of power, and in Il the wealth
that he vas gathering together was
the least part. Then he turned his
attention to the yreets OF London.
IN this work, lCrWL;ch he made the
greatest part Of his fortune, what he
saw was the solution OF many social
questions In which he was intensely
interested.
He looked on the map ana saw a
black stain. a tangle q narrow
streets and crowded alleys under a
pail OF everlasting smoke-London.
And he saw outside, Just away from
this suffering swarm Of human be
ings, green fields and woods windy
hills and clear skies.
TO conduct electricity Into the
midst Of that swarm OF Londoners,
and to set It driving them out into
these green fields and on top OF those
hills, became the growing idea ef his
life. He saw the pablic houses emp
tying and a procession OF radiant peo.
pie moving from the slums into the
sweet air OF yhe country. He was
a shrewd and hardheaded man, and
no sentimentalist, but the Joy OF his
work was In the wonderful power
which was to make a different race.
The power house of Chiswick is the
work OF his own hands every brick
and nut and bolt. and Il is there you
get to know the mind of the man.
His eye ldndles as he points out to
you the wonders Of this tremendous
machine for making electricity, aud
you see how much more he is an
engineer than fnancler. He is a
man OF simple taste, with no desire
for wealth and luxury.
When Captain Goddard graduated
from Harvard he went directly into
his fathers AFFAIRS and became one
of the hardest working men in his
place. He was here for eight years
when his father died, and he and his
brother succeedSd to the millions.
He was just thirty-nve, and although
he stayed at the head OF the i'm
mense business, he could not be sat
ished with the mere making OF money.
He rented an apartment IN a ten
oment house at No. 327 East Thirty
third street He occupied one room
and gave the other 20 his Old family
servant The partition between the
two rooms was torn down to make
a comfortable sitting room. It was
here he lived at night and on days
he attended to his business. In that
f neighborhood the captain discovered

twelve working men-a plastorer, a

This has been the most successful season
the league has yet experienced, both from a
playing and an attendance standpoint. ALI
the teams have shown vast Improvement
over their playing OF previous years. and
the race for the pennant has necessarily
been much closer than formerly. Although
the Cowboys won the pennant again this
year by a good margin. for over half the
season the teams were running neck and
neck. and it was not until the Duplex team
struck slump that the Cowboys were able
to obtain much OF lead The attendance.
too, has increased materially over that or
last year, which goes to show that interest
in the league has not waned.
The following averages show the Cowboys
to. be leading both in the field and at the
bat They have maintained a .355 clip at the
bat for fifteen games, and are far ahead or
the Pressmen, who are second with an av-
erage of .325. Duplex is third with an aver
age of .314, while the Blanks come trailing
up last with 292. and are the only team to
