What might add to the success of
the probation method of dealing with
juvenile offenders, would be giving
them hearings in the afternoon in
the city court room, instead Of In
the morning. when the other Offend
ers are tried. This would afford
Judge Cross opportunity to look
carefully into each case to determine
where the fault lay, and apply the
proper remedy to correct the fault.
Procedure Of the juvenile court
might also be adopted with profit. In
these institutions rules of evidence
are discarded and the judge and pris-
oner get right down to a "heart to
heart" understanding. Any kind Of
evidence that throws light on the
condition, environment and training
of the child is competent and mate
rial in a juvenile court. The proceed
ings are informal, and it is safe to
say, that half the little children, who
appear. never realize they have been
in a court, at all. The Judge simply
personiies the beneficent power Of
society: the friend of the unfortu-
nate, not his executioner.

WEALTH OF COUNTRY
ESTIMATED TOTAL OF THE MA

Americans the Richest People--Last
Few Years Bring Phenomenal Ad-
vances, Surpasssng other Periods
Amount per Capita 81 400.

The census officials discovered that
the total wealth of the people of the
United States on the 3Oth OF June, 1900,
was SSS,517, ,306,775, an average of ST.
164.15 for every man, woman and child
in this great and glorious republic.
During the last six years the people
of this country have enjoyed unprece-
dented prosperity. The growth OF pop
ulation, the increase Of wealth ard de-
velopment of our national commerce
and industries have been more rapid
than for any previous period. We have
gained more in six years than we have
previously gained in any ten years. The
totals at the bottom of every column
Of statistics are rolling up in a marvel
Gus manner. The country is so big that
It takes a long time to find out what
we are doing, but our statistics are
published more promptly and arc more
complete than those OF any other ma
tion, unless it be Sweden. We are far
ahead Of France and Germany. Their
statistics are usually several years be-
hind the times. England does better.
Her statisticians keep up pretty close
to date, but are not so prompt in their
publications as those of the United
States.
The returns for 1904 have been COM
piled and show that on June 30 of that
year the total wealth Of our people was
$107, ,104, ,211 ,917, an increase Of $1S,-
592,905, ,142 in four years.
During those four years the popula-
ton of the country increased from 75,-
994,575 to 1,256,O0O, or at the rate of
1,315,356 souls per year.
There Is every reason to believe that
our increase in wealth has been even
more rapid since the Both Of June, 1904,
than it was in the four years previous
to that date, and at the same ratio Of
gain the increase during the six years
and six months from June 80, 1900, to
Dec. 81, 1906, ought to be not less than
$30, ,225, 100000. That would make the
total wealth Of this country to-day
Si13,742, ,3O6, 6,775.
Thus, since the beginning of the CEN

fury, the wealth of the American peo-
pie has been rolling up at the rate of:
$4,650,O00,0Oo every year.
1927 1889, ,726 every day.
$5,305,S22 every hour Of every day.
$SS,430 every minute.
$1,474 every second of the six years
and half since the census Of 1900 was
taken.
This makes the per capita wealth in
1904 not less than 81 ,306.15, an increase
Of S35 year in the earthly possessions
of every man, woman and child in the
United States. The gain has undoubt-
edly continued at the same rate since
June so, 1904, which would make each
of us worth more than $1,40O on the
day of our Lord, Jan. /, 1907, and un-
doubtedly proves that we are the rich
est people In the world.

Safe, Sure and Speedy.

No external remedy ever yet devised
has so fully and unquestionably met these
three prime conditions as successfully as
Allcock's Plasters. They are safe because
they contain no deleterious drugs and are
manufactured upon scientific principles of
medicine. They are sure because nothing
goes into them except ingredients which
are exactly adapted 10 the purposes for
which a plaster Is required. They are
SPEEDY in their action because their medi-
cinal qualities go right to their work of

GIVES CAUSE OF CAR SHORTAGE.
Lane Thinks Roads Accepted Most
Profitable Traffic.


In report submitted to President
Roosevelt Interstate Commerce Commits
sioner Franklin X. Lane defined the cause
of the car shortage in the Northwest and
the resulting coal famine in North Da-
kota.
'It is fair inference" the report says,
''from all the testimony that the real
cause of the coal scarcity in North Da-
kota was such ali abundance of west
bound traffic at the head of the lakes that
cars were not available in the congested
State of that terminal for the carrying
of coal to North Dakota-a comparative
ly short haul for low-class commodity"
In his letter of transmission to the
President, Mr.. Lane says that the report
will be followed in due course by the spe-
cial recommendations of the commission
as a whole to whatever legislation, if any,
may be deemed advisable.
Referring to the report that the coal
shortage was due to the presence of a
