The Wall Street Octopus.

Wall Street! What an alluring
sound What -falter:ng hope
it brings to the man of little money.
Even the I4-year-old Office boy
who gets job in an Office south OF
City Hall Park in New York i'm
mediately throws out his chest and
informs his friends tcat he is in
Wall Street. That narrow canyon
of sky-scrapers, extending from
Broadway to the East River, over
which the majestic spire Of Old
Trinity stands like sentinel for
those who fill her poor box on Sun
days with the money they have
won from gambling on week days,
is Wall Street. But all the "sur-
rounding country" is really Wall
Street. Like a huge octopus with
far-reaching tentacles, even the
name-Wall Street-draws in the
unsophisticated but money-mad
youth, the hardened and successful
business man, the farmer the manu-
facturer, the miner, and even the
experienced bankers and brokers
themselves. They are money.mad
It's in the papers of the millions
that are won N Wall Street. They
think over the question and decide
that its Wall Street for them. No
more drudgery. Riches and ease
for the rest of their days. Others
become rich," they say, "why not
p" They don't stop to figure that
the men who are making all the
money are the ones who have the
capital to work with Important
interests are at stake in Wall Street.
Big financial undertakings are
keeping the men of millions busy.
Wall Street seldo.: hurts these
men. They may lose at times,
but they are not the real sufferers
from this craze for gambling. The
ones who lose are those who can
not afford to play. So " hen the
big men begin hurting bomb,
shells" at one another for the con-
troll Of certain stocks something
painfully sad usually happens to
the little fellow who jumps between
the two firing lines to get some ol
the spoils. He is caught between
two fires. In the excitement ol
the stock-exchange battle the little
fellow is seldom noticed and is us
ually killed or wounded. When
everything is over and he regains
his senses, he finds his little pile of
lifelong savings has not been for
gotten when the loot was gathered
in by the fighters. He is broke. =

How Judge Harlan Got a Drink.

This is story to make our tenn
perance friends sigh. A party of
bold and mere or less bad CONNER
cial travellers were sitting up all
night in the smoking compartment
OF railroad train from Louisville
to Washington. One of them had
a bottle, and the bottle contained
whiskey. He got the glass from
under the water cooler, and they
all took nip. Just as the glass
had been returned to its proper
place in strobe Mr.. Justice Harlan
Of the United States Supreme Court.
He had lett mis- private compart-
ment to get drink-of water. He
picked up the glass and shifted,
disdainfully. Turning upon the
drummers, and in his most digni-
fed and awful Learned Judge, 4"
manner he thundered who has
been using this glass for whiskey?'
Somewhat shaml facedly drummer
from Pittsburg spoke up: II am
the culprit, Judge. " The justice
bent his eagle eye upon him, looked
through aud through, approached
and in his most authorative voice
asked a second question: "And
why are you hiding the bottle?"
The bottle was found and when
the judge went back to his own
apartments the glass smelled just
like it did when he entered the
smoker. -Er.

Won l.. Myer rs Po tnaster General.
Second Assistant Postmaster Gen
eral Shallenberger, he in charge of
the railway mail service, has nj.
ready resigned. and his place has
been given to former representative
McCleary Of Minnesota, whose term
in Congress expires this year.
Third Assistant Postmaster General
Madden has also resigned, and no
successor has yet been named.
Without saying anything against
Mr.. Shallenberger, who TOR aught
/ know to the contrary may be a
very estimable gentleman, it will
not be bad thing if the whole of
the railway mail division Of the
Pos,office is given good house
cleaning. This division was not
touched in the recent post office
scandals, and it is possible that
there may be nothing technically
criminal about anybody in it. But
the fact remains that all the big
railroad systems ofthe country have
men in the division who were put
there by the roads, some of them
regularly retained and paid by the
roads each month, simply for the
influence they can exercise and the
information as to i.iside office doings
they can impart. This is not a
defamation against any particular
road. If one road gets mail con-
tract that another Is fighting for, ,
it is merely because the successful
road had better man on the Job
than the unsuccessful one. But
the general condition is tolerably
scandalous and would be we'll worth
revising.
E,s*
The trial of Binger Hermann,
one time commissioner of the Land
Office, is dragging along in the
Washington courts and furnishing
more or less local sensation. In
fact. there was a decided sensation
sprung this week when correspond
ence was read in court, showing
that some we'll meaning farmer out
in Oregon had notified the then
commissioner of land and timber
frauds being committed in his vicin
ity, about all of which the commits
sioner of course knew perfectly we'll
before hand. This we'll intended
information was promptly retrans-
mitted to the represe natives of the
timber company who were commit
ting the frauds, and they swooped
down OH the informer and threat
ened to make the country too hot
to hold him.
Anyone who has known how the
Land Office was running for years
will not be surprised at this bit of
revelation. But it does sound
rather bad coming out in court.
However, it is part of the general
house C Gaming that is going on in
the Interior Department particular
ly, but in most of the departments
to some extent. The revelations
are unsavory, but it is a case Of not
being able to sweep without making
a dust.
Ky
All OF the big appropriation bills
are now practically in shape and
will be passed by the end of the
session without difficulty. The
general deficiency bill has been
smaller than usual but this session
will go into history as billion dol
lar Congress.

MYSTERIOUS BABY.
Town Cerk Has Birth Record, Bu'
 Child Can't Be Found.

New Britain, Aug 30.--A baby pys- tery in Berlin has just come to the attention of the people there and 1t is as much of a conundrum as the identity of Peter Church of Hartford. The Berlin baby has never been seen by any one in Berlin--at least no one can be found there to admit 1t. and the child is probably not now in town. The only trace that there ever was such a baby Is the certificate of his birth on record at the town clerks office in Berlin. It is as follows: .Harold Clark. male child. date of birth July %, 1907. Fathers name Berlin. 19 years of age. white Ameri- can, farmer. Mothers name--17 years old. white. American. Berlin"
 The certificate was signed by. DrI W. P. Bunnell of New Britain. was mailed to the town c.erk and rey ceived by him August 1.

DEAD IN WAGON
A Man Who Was Once in Com
 iortsbIe Circumstances ..


 James St George, a man who start ed out in life with bright prospects, was found dead this morning in R. N. Blakeslee's yard in Meadow street. He was stretched out in the bottom of one of the wagons, which he prob- ably had chosen for bed over night.
 James St George was born thirty eight years ago at Galway, Ireland, and was a son of Judge Richard St George of that place. He was gradu- ated with honors from Queens col lege, Dublin, and for time acted as clerk of the city court where his father presided. He was intended for the profession of law. but he missed the opportunity and took position as bookkeeper in one of the large es- tablishments in Galway.
