pile was made and how it is being used.
Secretary Garfield also took occasion to
praise the character and worth Of men
in the public service.
THE Making of Character was the
subject of Mr.. Garfeld's address. He
urged the young man not to be led by
the spirit of commercialism of today to
think that great wealth is the measure
of success.
Money and Wealth.
I'm my reference to money and wealth."
he stated. II do not wish to be regarded
as one who decries the man of great
wealth or who would tear down the great
Industrial institutions which have been
made by accumulations OF wealth. In the
making of these great Industrial insti-
tutions, money is not the measure of the
success, but rather how has the wealth
been made and how IS it being used. If
we find that a man has made money by
straightforward business dealings and
honest practices, there is no reason to
decry his wealth. But if we find that a
man has built up his wealth by viola
tions of the law by trckery or by sharp
practices, we will find that the man has
not upheld the common principles of hon
esty and truth"
Secretary Garfield declared that sur
rOundingS do not make character, and
then considered men in the public service.
For several years past l have been
associated with men in the public SER
vice." he said. THE more 1 see of these
men. the more / appreciate their charac-
ter and their worth. Those who decry
the men of the public service as de-
pendents and as persons without oppor-
tunities, do not know the conditions.
Character can be developed just as much
In the public service as In private SER
vice. There again. individual efforts
count and the measure of success de-
pends on the kind of service that is rem
dered and the loyalty the person gives

COREYS BEGIN
SOCIAL FIGHT
Occupy Suite at Lenox. Mass,
Hotel.

LENOX. MASS, Sept. 6.-William
Ellis Corey, president of the Steel
Trust, and Mrs. Corey, formerly Ma
bel Gilman, the actress, are at local
hotel, where it is currently rumored
they are to conduct social campaign
to enter society.
They motored up from New York,
and as the hotel was turning guests
away and their order for rooms had
gone astray, some difficulty was en-
countered in securing rooms, until
Corey was recognized and immediate
ly assigned to the royal suite, which
costs $500 per day.
Mr. and Mrs. Corey lunch and dine
in the main dining room, and Mrs.
Corey's gowns excite comment and adj
miration among the women guests.
They are all French gowns. Corey
has given a carte blanche order for
flowers for his rooms, and Berkshire
florists respond with their rarest or
chids.
Daily they motor about Lenox and
Stockbridge, passing several estates
which are in the market, which it is
said they will later examine

RINGING FORMS BIG
CIRCUS MONOPOLY
Ringing Brothers Get Control of
Other Large Shows.

CHICAGO, Sept. 6.-Friends close
to the Ringing Brothers assert that
the deal had been closed whereby the
Ringlings will take the Barnum G.
Bailey shows. This also gives them
control of Buffalo Bills show, and
they have working agreement with
Hagenback's and Pawnee Bills shows.
The figures are not given, but recently
it was estimated that the Barnum and
Bailey aggregation was valued at
100000 The deal will give the
Ringing Brothers an absolute mono
poly in the big circus line and open
to them New York and other cities
that were closed by agreement with
their former rivals. 1t has long been
the ambition of John Ringing to be
the circus king of the world.

SEND WINE GRAPES
TO FRANCE
California Fruit Dried and Elk
ported in Large Quantities.

FRESNO, CAL, Sept. 6.-Like
sending Goals to Newcastle" Califor-
MIA growers are sending grapes to
France to be made into wine; and the
business is profitable. In due time
much of the wine made in France
from dried American grapes comes
bacy to this country and is sold for
fancy prices. A large number of
contracts have been made with small
growers who instead of selling their
Zinfandel grapes to the California
Wine Association as they are picked
from the vines, dry them and sell them
for shipment
The good prices can be obtained for
these grapes in the French wine trade
this year is explained by the fact that
the stringent laws against adultera-
ton there have just gone into effect,
and the French growers have taken
advantage of this to raise their prices
and in retaliation the winemakers are
using American grapes.

FORAKER ON THE
CONSUL'S TRIAL
Will Oppose Man Who Figured
in Brownsville Probing.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.-An echo
of the Brownsville affair will be hearG
in the Senate next winter when Sena.
tor Foraker will oppose the conffrma.
ton of the promotion of P. Merrill
Griffith, of Ohio, from the consulshir
at Matamoras, Mexico, to more i'm
portant post in the diplomatic SER
vice.
Matamoras is across the Rio Grande
River from Brownsville, and Foraker
claims that Griffith exerted all of his
influence against those who We're
sent to that part of the country tc
secure evidence for the Constitution
League, a colored organization. II
was not safe for the agents of the
Constitution League to stay in
Brownsville while they were search
ing for evidence, and they took re-
fuge in Matamoras. The Senator
thinks Griffith has been promoted as
reward for his services in the
Brownsville affair.

may soon be served at Montreal cafes,
if present plans for the erection of
a special abattoir for the slaughter
ing of horses are put into execution.
DR.. Laberge, municipal health officer,
favors the project, and declares that
there is no reason why horse meat
should not be placed on the market,
especially since the price of beef is
now so high. Horse flesh is now uni
versaHy used in France, and it is be-
lieyed that the large French popu-
lation in Montreal would serve to
make the project successful. If es-
tablished, this will be the first horse
abattoir in America

MEN WRAPPED IN LACE

SmuggIerS Come to Grief
In New York
SWINDLING SCHEME IS EXPOSED
Shirts and Coat Sleeves Filled With
Costly LdCeS and Their Bodies
Wrapped With LaCeS Worth
SIS Yard.
SWINDLING SCHEME is EXPOSED

NEW YORK, Sept. GA well or
ganized scheme for smuggling lace
and women's dress materials came to
grief yesterday when customs officials
ordered the arrest of w. T. Hardy
and Burton Baldwin, cabin passengers
aboard the steamer Kranprinz Will
helm, an hour after the arrival of
the vessel.
The search of Hardy's baggage re-
suited in the discovery of several
thousands of dollars worth of lace,
which was pinned inside shirts, pa
jana suits, sleeves of coats and legs
of trousers in the trunks and in the
pockets of a huge travelling coat,
which Hardy carried on his arm.
When customs Inspector Camp
bell looked into the side of the first
shirt and saw it was full of lace, Har-
dy said coolly: Never mind taking
out the others; they are all alike. -
Yard after yard of costly lace was Ia
ken out and piled upon the pier.
Only a small quantity of lace was
found in Baldwin's trunk, and that,
he said, had been put there by Hardy.
Incidentally Hardy and his ship-mate
were also overhauled Wound around
the body of Hardy was thirty yards
of handmade lace, valued at about
S25 a yard. He accepted the expo
sure with smiles.
The customs officials think they
have uncovered a syndicate of SNUG
glers who have within the last four
years brought into this port more
than $1,000,000 of dutiable goods
The two men, it is stated, are in
business as dressmakers in this city
They were each held in $4,000 bail.

Epidemic of Infantile Paralysis
Gases the Cause of 1t.

NEW YORK, Sept GA scientific
hunt for the infantile paralysis germ
has begun in this city. When and

are quite uncertain what the germ

about by edipemics of infantile paraly.
sis which have occurred in several
localities within a radius of two
hundred miles of New York.
