The Mysterious PASSENGER.

The captain of a vessel which was
bringing to America in the fall of 1895
mysterious passenger who had come
aboard at Hamburg watched the latter
so closely that at last the passenger
said one day: "Sir, this is not the first
occasion upon which l have observed
the attentive scrutiny you bestow up
on me. May inquire the reasonP'
Sir" responded the candid captain,
you took passage on my ship as a
Dane I don't believe you're anything
of the kind"
The passenger smiled. The smile
was full of perspicacity and confidence
and was followed with, Pray tell me,
then, what you believe me to be-"
At this question Captain Ewing
fidgeted, hesitated and finally blurted
out: We'll. to be honest, / think YOU
are a gambler. You've well nigh
ruined yourself at home and are now
coming to fleece the fools you'll find on
shore"
The young mans smile broadened.
The next minute he turned grave
again, lowered his voice and replied:
Captain Ewing, as you have studied
me during this voyage, SO 1 have
studied you. / have come TO the con-
clusion that you are man to be

TO SUPPLY CONCRETE
TILE FOR RAILROAD
Lowell Company Receives a
Large 0rder-BnckS Given
Severe Test With Fire.
Lowell. Nov. n 1907.

Lowell, Nov. z, 1907.
w. II. Holden & Co. have received
a large order from the FL Paso &
Southwestern Railroad for concrete
tile, the same as that used in the con
struction of the Warren street car line.
The tile is to be used in the conssruc-
ton of culyerts, and can be manufac-
tured at price lower than those ul
wood. The railroad will soon begin
TO replace the wooden culvert below
the ice plant with the concrete prod
uct and later viii do the same at the
waterway at the Copper Queen hospi-
tai. Mr.. Holden stated that he will
soon enlarge his plant on Main street
in order TO be able to have enough
space to turn out the large order.
Yesterday a brick made OF concrete
was taken from the fire box OF a boil
er at the junction mine which had
been there for period of twenty days
This brick was constantly subjected TO
a heat of more than $500 degrees Fab
renheit, and when taken from the fire
was. if anything, in better condition
than when placed there three weeks
ago. This fact certainly proves the
worth of concrete as a building mater
ial that is absolutely fireproof.

this advantage. The yield of cotton
per acre on these lands is from 1400
to 1000 pounds per acre. Near the
gulf coast the lands produce a long

Sea Island cotton.
The local market is large and grow

overlooked; its Old-fashioned whole
someness was utterly disregarded.
The country merchant would have
been engaged in his daily struggle,
instead of battling at long ouds
against ostracism. adversely, big bills
and meager receipts.
Think of $2OOOOO,OO0, ye who cause
the catalogue houses to flourish as the
cedars of Lebanon, and the green bay
tree; remember that their prosperity
is at the expense of your brother, the
local merchant, and local progress.
Then ask this pertinent question: Can
we afford to play the game longer;
can we longer stultify local interests?
This great evil affects every farm
er, teacher and work hand, every
home, every school, every church in
every country community. 1t also
touches the interests of the physician,
preacher and pedagogue. 1t really
robs the country merchant before his
eyes, in a heartless way. He sees the
freight yard crowded with consign-
ments to individuals from great cata-
logue houses, and sadly does he look
at his country store with it's stock
accommodating for want of trade, and
thus decreasing in value every day.
Sadly too does he look at the refuge
of bankruptcy hourly being fastened
because his townsmen prefer the cata-
logue house with its ubiquitous cir
culars. Those train loads of goods
were bought with money that should
have found it's way into the honest
hand of your local merchant, who has
the good of your locality at heart, and
who is expected to contribute literally
and continuously to very moral and
benevolent institution in your midst.
Then likewise remember this, that of
all the millions thus sent to swell the
Golfers of houses in great cities, not
one cent will ever return to bless your
community; to clothe the naked, to
feed the hungry or to educate the
ignorant!
This is certainly misguided, ILL
advised policy; if self preservation is
the first law of nature, the fact just
stated should cause lovers of this
country to think Continue this policy
and what follows? The value of real
estate decreases, local Improvements
cease, material progress stops, the
whole country suffers.
The money of a community repre-
sents in business sense just so much
possibility, and every honest occupa-
ton is injured In proportion as that
ls withheld or sent elsewhere.
In certain rural community, this
official order and warning was issued:
unless bad roads are fixed there
will be no rural delivery at ALL" 1t is
impossible to put roads in repair with
out money. This lack of means can
not be traced to poor crops, for the
harvest just gathered in has been
superabundant. Men cannot support
and build up business concerns in dis
tant cities without sacrificing the
local good. Is it fair to establish the
rity by deprlving the country of les
Just support?

This is only partially true. That doc.
trine has been preached till the text
is threadbare. It would be pauch
wiser for men to get new to6t and
talk and work the country up, then
allow the city, including its mail or
der Octopus, to work its own prob
lens awhile. This, instead of being
selishness. would be the finest order
of common sense. A more marked
feeling of brotherhood interest is
sadly needed in the country on this
particular point

will follow. The improvements would
be marked. Social conditions would
be greatly ameliorated. A new order

of all, the social spirit of brotherhood

greater opportunities.

man. AS it is to-day, these words are

Fortunate Men Of Prominence.

Admirers of great, rich or famous
people often bestow their wealth upon
the objects o. their regard. The Ger
man emperor heads the list of lucky
ones so favored. His receipts in
money and real estate during the last
ten years would, it is said, make a
millionaire envious. Following prece-
dent, Hamburg merchant prince left
more than $1,000,000 to the emperor's
chancellor, whom Kaiser William i'm
mediately created Prince" Buelow.
Williatl Jennings Bryan recently
came by wealth in the same way. In
England Lord Allerton has received
100000 from an admirer of his public
career and DR.. jameson inherits sum

Belt. Queen Victoria was very for

wealthiest was Nield, who Oequeathed

aster only can follow. The mail or

and scatters it abroad in field where
1t is not needed; this is unfair to both
the town and to its merchants. This
shortsighted citizen complains of the
size and character of his town paper,
at the same time he pursues a policy
which tends to destroy both. Then,
