Salt and Civilization.

Salt has had much influence in shap-

the oldest trade routes were created
for the salt traffic. This was certain

of North India were the center of a
large trade before the time of Alex

cradle part in the distribution of man

where 1t could be obtained. This
brought him to the seashore, where he
gained his ideas of maritime COM
merce. Lastly, the preservative eff

oceanic voyages possible and thus
opened up the world to commerce and
civilization.

New York, March 22.-The passing
of the two chief heads of the house of
Rockefeller from activity in affairs of
the highest financial power is now gen
orally discounted in financial circles.
This was indicated when news of the
fast failing health of John d. Rockefel-
Ter, richest man in the world and king
of Standard Oil, and the serious illness
of William Rockefeller, the active prin-
,cipal in Standard Oil and representa-
tive of its interests in its very big sub
sidiary corporations, was not enough
to seriously disturb the market.
Can Measure Span of Life.
Confirmation was obtained of the re-
port that William Rockefeller's span of
life can now be measured by a year or
less, and that he probably never will
be able to resume the government ov-
err the vast interests which he SO &C
lively ruled. The report that gained
circulation was that Mr.. Rockefeller
was suffering from cancer of the stom,
ach. 1t was learned today that when
he left here last fall he was suffering
from cancer at the base of the tongue,
as deadly a malady as cancer of the
stomach and a belief exists in some
quarters that he is now suffering from
cancerous growths both at the base
of his tongue and in the stomach.
