OUICLEY'S
FRIEND
downright, by Joseph B. Bowles,)
By CANIR HEALY.

=
Quigley had one weakness. He
got drunk exactly four times year
on each of the four successive pen
sion days. And when Quigley got
drunk he acted like a mailman. But
Quigley wouldn't really be happy ii
he wasn't losing his money. Money
was made round, to go round, he used
to say, and there would be lots of it
in the world when he was dead and
forgotten.
That's what Quigley said on pen
sion days But he held very different
opinions upon the other 36l days OF
the year. Then money became to him
a kind of deity. For this reason he
was always an enigma to US.
When I first knew him he was
keeping a little soup shop in the bog
side, a crowded district in London
derry. He sold as many bowls OF
soup at penny each as kept the wolf
from the door, anyhow, and he was
always bright and cheerful He had
Gu interesting and adventurous
career. He had been at the Fenian
Raid on Canada, and had spent seven
years in India. One evening as we
sat by his fireside, he related the fol-
lowing episode in his career. 1t was

us and bad fer the rest. To some

Well, the lolling about the barrack
did not suit my tastes at all. So

ing in scrape is to read about those
who have been. They became tired
of things, so had l. They wanted to do

VALUE OF STRUGGLE
BEST EDUCATION is THAT GOT

Children Of Rich Men Handicapped
by Berg Pampered in Early Youth
Recent Notoriety of WeII-known
Family Case in Point.

Not long ago a certain American
family achieved widespread, varie-
gated notoriety which was in a way
international. Sons and daughters of
an honest, hardworking man, who had
become immensely wealthy by one of
those wonderful strokes of fortune for
which America is famous, had tried
to spend their fathers money too hur.
riedly. Escapade after escapade,
startling incidents succeeded by
others more startling, divorce courts
and all sorts Of unpleasant and dis,
graceful experiences marked their
careers, until finally the nlerican pub
lie, which is very long-suffering, ac-
tually seemed to become tired Of the
name of the family.
The father had been a common la
borer in one of those great industries
nous combinations, or trusts, doing
business at the rate of hundreds of
millions annually. He had been faith
full in performing his duties, alert, in.
defatigable, progressive, strong and
forceful and had been promoted step
by step until his profits as a partner
were princely. His wife, whom he had
married when she was a mill girl in
the factory town, was woman of
strong sense and chararter, and the
two were sturdy, admirable specimens
of the kind of iron fiber which i'm

emerging from trials triumphant and
good. The expectation seems to
have been that their sons and daugh-
tiers, coming from so healthy a stock,
would possess somewhat of the char:
acter and fiber Of their parents, and
in addition a broader culture from
their education and the advantages Of
contact with good society" which
their parents had lacked.
These children were, however, the
most wretched failure in the world,
and their misfortune, which was more
lamentable a thousandfold than pow.
erty, was due TO the fact that they
were so pampered from their early
youth that they never had the slight
est opportunity to develop that
strength of character and effort of
some kind.
'The best education in the world"
said Wendell Phillips, "is that got by
struggling to make living" There
are myriads in the world for whom the
struggle under adverse circumstances
is too hard. 1t is cant to say that
riches are in thems elves an evil, when
all are seeking to lay by the money
which affords the means of education,
of safety in old age, of comfort and
culture, and it is a Sinking insincer-
ity to say to man who is fighting
against want that poverty is good in
itself. But there is no doubt that a
life of ease for the whole human race
would at the present time ruin it ir-
retrievably. James Martineau says
finely:
GA world without contingency or
an agony could have had no hero and
no saint "-Philadelphia Ledger.

said shipping man the other day,

long ago. l was visiting there and
had little time to myself, so bought
a paper and went down to the river
front. l saw an advertisement in the
paper saying that a tug was to be
auctioned off that day, so l went to
the place and stood around examining
the tug. After a while man who had
been watching me came over and be-
gan asking questions. l told him I
was interested in boats and was from
Philadelphia. Then he asked: What
are you doing down here? I came
down to this auction SALE 1 said.
Well said the man. if you want to

that John McGarvey. the condemned

ly passing the last few days of his

ed to read and smoke necessarily,

regnining his composurc he called tn
his death watch and after repeating
the words above given, he stated that
he had now given up all hope and was
ready to die.

City that Nc. Garvey is to hang at
eight O'Clock this evening. Warden
CIeghorn absolutely will not give out
one bit of information regarding the
execution but as he had notified many
of the officials to be present this after
noon the belief that McGarvey dies to-
night gains ground. Everything is
i'm readiness for the execution.
Today the priest who is McGar-
vcy's spiritual adviser spent about an
hour with the condemned man in his
cell.
