carneeie's Recipe for Happiness.

New York, Nov 26.-Hale and
hearty in spite of his seventy years
Andrew Carnegie, standing beside a
table piled with messages of congrasu.
lation on his birthday, November 26th
gave a rule for happiness. The rule
was this:
ITO obey the Judge within and make
others happy.
IF the judge within gives you a
clean verdict, we have no other Judge
to fear, here or hereafter.
But after satisfying that Judge.
above all else the way to be happy is
to make others happy
Can a man accomplish as much at
seventy as at forty?" he was asked.
More, bless you, more" replied Car.
negie. "All things being equal man s
efficiency is increased at seventy. He
is equipped with greater experience
The world is growing better, and It
follows that the men in it grow better
as they grow older"
Carnegie was asked: when is mans
usefulness ripest?"
when he has attained the highest
degree of perfection of which he is
capable" was the reply. "This means
that if he conserves his physical and
mental powers he will be ripest when
he has attained long life. At seventy /
am convinced that mans usefulness in
creases with age"

THANKSGIVING PARDoNS.
Governor Directs That Prisoners Go
to Their Former Homes.

Denver.-Governor Buchtel, in par
doning three persons from prison in
stitutions the day before Thanksgiv-
ing exiled each from Colorado for
life The pardons are said to be with
out precedent in carrying this condi-
ton with them. For the first time the
governor of the state went outside of
the State Penitentiary also, pardoning
one prisoner from the county Jail of
Denver and one from the state reform
atory. Each prisoner is to be sent back
to his mother. Following are the
Thanksgiving clemencies:
Frank Herold, life sentence, peni-
tentiary, for double murder. Served
eight years.
John Rundle, intermediate SEN
tence, Buena Vista reformatory, stole
bicycle.
T. E. Cavanaugh, vag, county Jail Of
Denver.
Luman w. Scovel, Communication of
sentence, State Penitentiary, from
seven to eight years to two to eight
years. Voluntary manslaughter. Sco-
vel is an old soldier
Herold has never applied for a par
don, having been sentenced in 1899 for
the double murder of Charles H.
O'Hara and Mary A. Moulton O'Hara,
at Brighton, both people of bad repu-
tations. The woman was formerly a
habitue of Market street. Herold was
an ignorant German boy of 10, and the
governor said in his letter to Herold
that he believes his story that O'Hara
killed his wife and that Herold killed
O'Hara in self defense when O'Hara at
tackled him as the only witness of the
crime. Herold drove off few cattle,
sold them and tried to get out of the
country, but fear is advanced as the
cause of this act by those who inter
ested themselves in his behalf. Mrs.
Henrietta Barmeier, one of those who
secured the pardon, was formerly a
well known German grand opera
singer and sang in Governor Buchte's
church twenty-five years ago.
1t was the intention of former Gov
ernor Mcdonald to give him the
Christmas pardon, but the plan did not
succeed. He was recommended for
the Thanksgiving pardon by both Gov
ernor and Mrs. Mcdonald and Mrs. j.
B. F. Reynolds, as well as the warden
Scovel is sixty years of age. He
was sentenced from Telluride, San
Miguel county, November %, 1907, for
voluntary manslaughter, being charged
with the murder of Sam Clark. His
wife is said to be an invalid and needs
his support. Scovel was formerly a
volunteer officer of the State Bureau
of Child and Animal Protection, serv-
ing without pay, because he could not
bear the sight of child or animal be-
ing abused. The officers of the bureau
believe that he killed Clark in self de-
tense.

Foreigners Going Home.

New York.-That the estimate that
$4,000 emigrants will leave New York
this week for European ports is far be.
low the number that will probably sail,
is the opinion expressed by Gustav H.
Schwab, of the North-German Lloyd
line. At least 10000 and perhaps TO-.
900 will sail, according to Mr.. Schwab's s
figures. The Pennsylvania railroad
alone brought more than 1000 to New
York Thursday. A curious feature of
the situation is that the number of
immigrants arriving in New York this
month is greater than for any Decem-
Der on record but it is believed that
the exodus will cause falling off in
immigration.
