Office boys may come and office boys may go. but New York has an office boy who apparently goes on for ever. He is a promising youngster of Ss years, who. in spite of handicaps, has held his job for sixty years. He began his work in 1889 and by con- stant application expects to be able to end his career exactly here he began it. He as office boy two decades be- fore the Civil ar, during that conflice. and ever since. serving three genera tions of employers. Naturally this youth who claims the record for of flee boy service. after a term longer than the allotted life of man, is unique among office boys of the young CT generation. Perhaps the most re- markable thing about him is that dur ing all his working life this paragon of office boys, whose name is Samuel Bracket, has never had a vacation. Claiming to be the oldest boy In the world. he has laid down after sixty nine years service in the same posi- ton certain laws which make for sue cess. Strict attention to business is the way to get ahead in the world" says Bracket, the S9-year-old worlds champion office boy, in spite of the fact that he has never gotten ahead at all But in spite of his age and service. Sammy" as he is still called by the grandchildren of his employer. is one of the most efficient office boys in the city. CuriOusly enough his present employer is that Mrs. Fisher. who is popularly known as the Anvil Queen" and who was denominated by Wu-Ting- Fang.

TOLEDO ICEMEN RELEASED.
Sentences Suspended After Be-
ing in Jail a Month.

Toledo, O., March 10.-Judge Brough,
in common pleas court, has issued an
order releasing from Jail R. G. Lem
mon, R. A. Beard and Joseph Miller,
the ice dealers sentenced to six
months imprisonment for violation of
the antitrust laws. The men had
served thirty-seven days.
The motion for suspension of SEN
tence was made last week and there
was also presented to the court a petit
ton numerously signed asking that
the men be given their freedom. Coun-
sci for the pris oners and the prosecut-
ing attorney argued the court had au-
thority to suspend sentence if it was
thought the ends of justice had been
served. The state declared it would
make no objection to an order of sus-
pension. It was argued that the fam
lilies and business of the prisoners
need them and that they had been
stuff GENTLY punished. The court Or
dered their immediate release The
three men plainly show their thirty
seven days confinement and at once
left the courtroom for their homes.
It has now been nearly year since
the icemen were brought to trial I'M
der the Valentine law charged with
conspiracy in restraint of trade. The
case was fought through all the state
courts and while the original sentence
was to the workhouse the supreme
court held they would have to go
poor health and two Of them are with
out means.

The love of animals is deeply i'm

though they live in primitive man

are ready to take trouble to put the

Of one of the Magyar farmers:
A typical peasant farmer, a man
Of considerable wealth, was well
known for his adherence to old clothes
and customs On one occasion
young farmer new to the district,
who had taken a small holding not
far from that of the old man, per
ceived a shabby figure leaning against
the gate on the edge of his property,
and said: Hi, old man! Do you want
some work?"
The wearer Of the shabby sheep
skin took his long pipe out of his
mouth and nodded gravely
We'll, YOU come along tomorrow
and look after some of my sheep.
Bring any of your bits of things or
animals with you; there's plenty Of
room on my farm"
The next day, as the young farmer
walked across his fields, he saw a
cloud Of dust coming up the road.
Presently there emerged from it
herd of cows, horses and sheep-hun-
dredS of animals with their driver.
The cayalcade swept past the aston

wagon, creak1ng and groaning, laden
with heavy furniture, in the front Of

MAKING CLOTHESPINS.

Clothespins by the million, by the
hundred millions, are turned out in Mont
peler, Vt, every year, and so great is,
the demand that preparations are being
made for still furthur increasing the
output.
These are not the old fashioned clothes
pins a split stick, but the affair made
with spring of steel wire The con.
Germ that makes the largest number
turns out 100 600 gross every year, and
in addition makes some forty different
kinds Of clips for holding papers and
photographs and bottles and test tubes,
as well as some larger ones for carriage
makers use, but its principal business
is the manufacture of pins to hold the
family wash on the line.
The old problem, what becomes of
all the pins?' may be supplemented by
this: What becomes of al the cloth
es pins?'
This one concern turns out every year
more than one clothespin for every man,
woman and child in the United States,
other factories turn ont considerable
quantity, and the Maine manufacturers
put millions of tine old-fashloned kind on
the market, but still the factories are
frequently behind on their orders.
The world is their market. Every
part of the United States knows the T.
nited States clothespin, as the original in
vention is called, and the washerwomen
of Peru, Brazil Australia France. Ger
many, Turkey and Russia know them
Just as well. Whereverthe cleansed fam
lily clothing is hung ont to dry the
Montpelier clothespins are known.

the only genuine doctrines of those an
cient giants.
If the platform adopted by the indie.
pendence League represents Mr.. Hearst g
| individual views-and it is reasonable to
suppose it does-it must be confessed
that the Mr.. Rearst who not long ago
blossomed out as conservative still
wears many marks of the radical. 'The
objects of the Independence League,
runs the document, ARE TO conserve for
the citizens of the United States the
rights and liberties won for them by the
founders of the Government and to per-
petuate the principles and policies upon
which the nations greatness has been
built. The league is devoted 10 the
preservation of American liberty, to
honest elections, to opportunity in bust
ness, to equality before the law. So far,
40 good The most earnest patriot and
follower of the Big Four named by Mr..
Hearst might readily subscribe to that.
But the platform offers some ideas sadly
at variance with the objects which the
league is described as championing One
of its features is the advocacy of public
ownership of all public utilities when
municipal, State and National Govern
ments are in a position to undertake
this, with the exception that the pur-
chase of the telegraph lines is to he i'm
mediate 1t indorses the referendum
here, by the way, is a strange brand of
Jeffersoniansm for you 1t advocates
that dishonest device known as a ship
subsidy"
1t is difficult to see the exact need of
the party Mr.. Hearst thus has set loose
Much of what it advocates may be
found already existing in the platforms
or in the speeches of high opponents of
the two pre.existing parties 1t seems
to have picked ont some OF the worst
and most perniclous doctrines of the old
parties and made them the arch stones
of its political faith.
AS a matter of fact, what the country
needs il an actual, sincere and strict re
turn of the ideas of Washington, Jeffer
son, Jackson and Lincoln The people
wish a square deal, equality before the
law, freedom from capitalistic domino
ion honest elections and home rule.
Also they want relief from the brays of
demagogues and the prejudices and va
carries of a9itators.

The word from the Far East indicates
a growing breach between Japan and
China. The subject of the latest con
troversy Is the activity Of the Japanese
in Manchuria. In addition to contiscat
inc Korea. the Government of Japan
practically regards Manchuria as Mt
territory for Japanese exploitation ana
so it has been camping upon Chinese
preserves. A railroad line is the spe.
cific bone Of contention just now
lite strange turn Of history TO bring
a dispute between China and Japan over
the very question which produced hos
Utilities between Russia and Japan. Rus
STA was gradually absorbing Manchuria.
This extensive territory, being part Of
so weak country-at that time-as
China, Russia had neither scruples nor
hesitation in oyerrunning it. When ia
pan, finding her own interests menaced
by the Russian occupation, ordered Rus
sia to get ont. Russia refused. There.
upon Japan undertook to put her out,
which. a. it is well known she did.
The Chinese Government ia watching
japanese aggression in Manchuria with
Indignation. So far there are no visible
signs Of war. But China knows deal
more than she did when she fought ia
