Professor Henry r Adome u-bo +

Professor Henry c. Adams. who has
been appointed by the interstate com
merce commission to organize a bu
reau to supervise the accounts of the
railroad complaints of the country
with the purpose of preventing under
the new law rebates, discrimination
and other illegal acts, has been profess
sor of political economy and finance at
the University of Michigan since 1887
He is a well known expert on railroad
matters, and has for IS years been
statistician for the interstate commerce
commission. He was director of the
division of transportation for the 18th
census

of all statemanly inspiration. But il
seems certain that his work this cam
paign-is going to be the most difficult
as well as the most strenuous he ever
has undertaken. The speaker is handi-
capped by his record on the statehood
bill. by his record on the rate bill. the
meat inspection bill, the pure food bill,
the Indian territory coal bill; on every
measure of importance that was consid-
cred by the last session of congress.
For the speaker stood always indomita-
ble unyielding, intolerant-for the
money powers that be.
Such crumbs as fell TO the people
from the vested interests table fell
with no sanction or pleasure of Can
mons. Every man and woman who
followed the work of the last congress
knows that. if Cannon could have had
his way. there would have been no
statehood for Oklahoma, no rate revi-
sion law at all. no pure food bill. no
meat inspection act. And. because it
is known of men that this man OF the
people has not the peoples interests
first at heart. we may understand his
handicap when he goes forth TO argue
on the stump with the labor leader the
issues in which the people today are so
vitality interested.
Truly, the opening campaign promis-
es rare enlightenment, unusual edifica-
ton for the public and, quite possibly,
a tremendous illumination for some
statesmen. Hurry up, Sam and Joe,
We are eager for the fur to begin to
fly

Privilege is so strongly intrenched
in our government, that it can never
be expelled until it is destroyed. Ev-
cry compromise strengthens it. Hence
the evil that turks in the rate bill. the
meat bill. and the pure food bill. They
are merely a step in the right direction,
but do not strike at the root of the
evils

THE BUSINESS MAN OF THE EAST
 AND OF THE WEST.

The life of the business man in the coast city is as bustling as that of his fellow on the other side of the States only there Is this difference. In the Northwest he works just as steadily, but you find him behind the counter or at the desk an hour earlier and he re- mains an hour or two later, more of the day. He has the telephone at his elbow si stenographer within range of his voice ready for dictation at a mo- ment's notice, He has the time saving and labor saving system down to fine point. Yet despite the day after day of keeping at 1t, the bald heads are few Nor do men grow gray before their time. Their nerves stand the strain despite the truly strenuous lives they lead. Why? Because they have not let the chef get the better of their stomachs, their homes in the heart of the out-of-doors are filled with fresh air from sea and mountain. The sun light can come in on all sides. They do not need a morning bracer, so that there is not so much temptation to dis sipate. They prove that work will not break you down if you keep yourself in trim for the tasks of each day.-D. H. Brock in "The Americanism of the Last Vest" in The Outing Magazine For February.

NEW HAVEN IS HEALTHY.
Dr. Perrin Finds Long Life Lines Prom
 inent in Local Hands.

1nent In Local Hands
 It is always matter of interest to know what impression an observant and impartial outsider forms of our city after a few days of his first sojourn among us. Dr. Carl Louis Perrin, great palmist, who is highly-edueated and widely travelled man, who is visiting this city in the practice of his science, has now spent his introductory week here. His opinions of New Haven have been formed through his professional work, and his method of gathering his information is unique.
 Dr. Perrin concludes that New Haven is healthy city. This conception of our City of the Films is not obtained from study of death statistics, but by study of the evidence presented by the life line in the palms which he has read. Dr. Perrin has noticed that it has been a predominant characteristic of the palms he has read here that the life line has been long. So many have presented this characteristic that Dr. Perrin has reached the conclusion that 'Aiio SlIy ID uue 1dVoIdple tO luI|EeNlty, and its inhabitants are generally long lived
 pr. Perrin finds two extreme classes of people here. He says that those whom he has met may be divided between the very intelligent and the very ignorant. He has been surprised, he says, at the large proportion of the highly-educated and intelligent population in this city. But there is no middle class. There are the two extremes. He also commented on the conservative character of New Haven.

N, Bradley and Captain S. E. Chaffee were schoolmates, and they remember the boy Wheeler quite well. They say he was small boy with fiery temper and was always ready for a fight If any one did anything to arouse his tenn per. He usually whipped the boy he sailed into, no matter what the size of that boy,
 General Wheeler's father moved from Derby about sixty years ago, and very little is remembered of the things that he did as a lad.-Ansonia Sentinel

GENERAL WHEELER IN DERBY
As schoolboy He Was Always Ready
 for Fight

As schoolboy He Was Always Ready
 for Fight.
 General Joseph Wheeler spent part of his boyhood days in Derby. His father came here about 1S41 and pur- chased the mill now owned by Freder- ick N. Bradley, using the mill to manu- fracture various kinds of cotton goods. The Wheeler family lived in 6 big house on Commerce street, the build ing still standing near the coal yards of Judge George B. Clark. MT. Wheel CT, ST., gave a quit claim of the mill to MT. Bradley's father in 1S45, and it Is thought that the family left here about that time.
 While here General Wheeler was a schoolboy and attended school in the building which stood on Gilberts street and which later was moved across the street and became part of the old Franklin school building. Frederick

The illustration here reproduced is that of the hand of the noted emotional actress, Mrs. Leslie Carter This was taken by Dr. Perrin at reading made in 1886, before Mrs. Carter had adopted the profession of the stage. At that time Mrs. Carter was very enthusiastic about elocution and theatricals, and had ambitions for the drama, but did not believe that she had the ability to real ize them. Dr. Perrin predicted that she would become great actress, which prediction has been so well realized.
 Dr. Perrin expects to remain here for some time. His address is Al York street.
