ACCIDENTS AND FATIGUE.
Number of Casualties Greater in the
Forenoon Than After Mid
Day Rest.

It was shown by an exhaustive in
Casters Magazine, that the number of
accidents increases progressively hour
by hour during the first half day; that
after the rest at midday the number OF
accidents is notably less than in the
last hour of the forenoon; that in the
course of the second half day accidents
again become, from hour to hour, pro-
gresslvely more numerous, and that
the maximum number of accidents to-
ward the end of the second half day is
notably higher than the corresponding
maximum in the morning. The influ-
ence of the WOrkmens fatigue on the
production of accidents stands out
clearly from these observations, and 1t
is easy to understand how this comes
about when 1t is remembered that with
fatigue the attention readily dimin-
ishes and disappears. The conclusion,
therefore, is that in order to produce
a diminution in the number of acct
dents it would be sufficient to interca-
late in the middle of each half day OF
work a period of repose, naturally not
so long as that at midday, but the
length of which remains to be deter
mined. "a fact, one would only nave
to apply to the manual labor of adults
the measures which for long time
have been put into practice for chill
dren as regards their intellectual labor.

SO long rs the comments of that ma

After long and determined fight
against the ravages of an lnsidlous
malady, DR.. William Rainey Harper,
president of the University of Chicago,
breathed his last on Wednesday of last
week. He was truly great and good
man. His career, though comparative
" short, was truly remarkable one.
During the past decade he was uni
versally looked up to as being one of
the foremost educational men that the
last half of the nineteenth century had
produced,
Though a man of profound erndition
"a pre- eminent philologist and scholar
of extraordinary attachments in Hebrew
he owed his phenomenal success and
consequent fame to his rare executive
and administrative ability.
He possessed all the qualities that one
would look for in "A master of the art OF
persuasion. His was a deeply religious
nature. He was n man Of tremendous
energy of steadfast, unwavering pur-
pose, of profound convictions Of in
defatigable activity, of lndomita5le Will
power and determination inspired and
Illuminated by moral stamina and spirit
ual insight
His logic was inexorable; his speech
was fluent; his manner was magnetic:
- .. in,
his Eye when, in simple but vigorous
and vivid, language, he expatiated upon
his plans for establishing the greatest
center of learning in the world. No
wonder his arguments convinced the
shrewdest business man of the age
John d. Rockefeller, whose generosity,
together with DR.. Earper's constructive,
executive and administrative ability,
rpened into fruition in the shape of the
the comparatively short space of fifteen
years. has developed into IA center of
learning second to none in the world.
Though he solicited millions Of dollars
from kings of wealth, be could III no
sense of the word be justly stigmatized
rs n plutocrat. He did not believe that
Rockefeller's money is tainted And no
one can justly say that it is tainted
without admitting in the same breath
that two-thirds of all American money
is tainted.
While Dr. Harper undoubtedly made
the utmost use Of his powers Of persua-
sion, we believe that he never acted the
part of either the vulpine hypocrite or
the sapient, self-seeking sycophant when
he induced multi -millionaires to fling
wide open their Golfers and pour forth
millions for the benefit of that institu.

The granting or accepting of rebate
constitutes no crime per Sc, unless the
principle underlying the practice is itself
declared to be iniguitous.
Any law enacted for the sole purpose
of preventing the granting Of rebates by
II railway company cannot but have
been conceived IN utter foolishness, I'M
less such law does at the same time
abolish the principle of rebates, which
principle has, for centuries, been re-
duced to practice by the entire manu-
featuring and commercial world and
even by the professional world
The large manufactures can and does
buy cheaper than it is possible for the
small manufacturer to buy, The differ.
ence between the prices quoted to the
former and those quoted to the latter
constitutes a rebate to all practical in
tents and purposes
The large merchant can and does I'M
derbuy the small merchant. The differ.
ence between the prices ut which the
former buys and those at which the
latter makes his purchases constitutes
essentially rebate,
Coupons, or the like, given by mer-
chants to their customers are virtually
rebates.
"One for IA nickel, three for dime"
this illustrates what 1t means to grant
aud TO receive Il rebate. Or again: "One
for fifteen cents two for n quarter.
Every article given to Il person by an
other person to induce the fo rmer to
buy, from the latter, goods to the value
of any specified sum, is a rebate, pure
and simple. 1t is a reduction granted to
customer who can afford 10 buy mer.
chaudise to the value, say, Of S2j at one
time; ana it IL a discrimination against
the small purchaser, who cannot meet
the conditions under which the rebate
j. offered
Again, all persons within given trade
are granted rebates at the expense of
those outside that trade.
IT, then, the practice Of granting and
receiving rebates is universal, il stands
to reason that any law enacted for the
purpose Of preventing a railway compa.
ny from granting reduced rates to large
shippers is unjust and pernicious class
legislation.
The fact that railroad companies are
common carriers does not, in reality,
alter the case.

To THE EDITOR OF THE PILOT:

To THE EDITOR or THE PILOT:
For the benefit of human life | desire
to make suggestion that is worthy OF
serious consideration by the heads of all
institutions of learning, as well rs by
the boards Of education of the various
cities lying adjacent to the shores of
Lake Michigan. In short, it is that
| all school children, in seaport towns
particularly, be given, regularly, lessons
on how to rescue and afterward revive
drowning persons.
This may at first seem trifing mat
ter, but nothing is trifling that has for
| its object the saving of human life. In
the matter of the life saving service
maintained by the Federal government,
| for instance, thousands and thousands
of dollars are paid ont annually for the
salary and maintenance OF men and
means for rescuiDg people in distress,
and even then the service is naturally
| too small to be of service at all points
| WHtTt lives are tIltdDPtItu
While it is not urged that life saving
crews should be maintained, it is urged
| that an expert in the rescue and reviving
of persons overcome in the water should
be employed in every school of impor-
lance, 80 that any boy or girl who had
the opportunity might save the life OF
some play mate, friend, or relative,
should the emergency arise.
| This need not be an extra expense, as
the experience could be required Of any
of the teachers Of other branches. In
stances are not uncommon when even
the most superficial knowledge Of how
to save life would have been valuable in
and around many coast cities, Many
| could rot rescueeven achld from drown.
ing.
There were two recent cases in my
own town a week ago, when ignorance
alone permitted sad drownings. There
have been many cases where persons
| have drowned when they could have
been rescued with little effort by any one
who knew how, and there have been
numerous cases ut the lakes in and about
my town where persons have been res
cued by persons possessing only slight
knowledge Of Just what to do, and,
Tn al bo,,ivff thn 10. In ~
These illustrations are enough to show
the importance of the subject. The
student body of any school will agree
that there is no detail in this regard half
as hard ~ would be the one Of being
compelled to stand on n shore and see
one or more friends or playmates drown
ing with no knowledge of how to offer
ala or, if rescued from the water, with
no knowledge Of how to revive the I'M.
conscious person. Not only would this
| knowledge be available while the young
| folks are enjoying vacations and trips
on the waters that contribute so much
toward making parts of any city situated
near them IN attractive residence sec.
| ton, but the same knowledge would be
of the greatest value MI during the
mature years of life. As the information
could be taught the school pupils ut II
trifing cost, the subject might be taken
up by those in authority, with benefit
| to everyone concerned.
Yours very truly,
