New York Dec 24--Thomas F.

nounced that yielding to the advise OF
his physicians, he had resigned from
the directorate of thirty-one corpora

management of which the noted finan.

Mr.. Ryans action was taken in pur-
suance Of policy Of retirement first
adopted two years ago. AT that time
he was told by his physicians that the
multiplicity 'of cares devolying upon
him as the chief steersman of so many
of the financial organizations, some

himself from his many business re.

was shot to death after a struggle In
the cellar of the home of Charles H.
Snow, dean OF the school of arts and

he had been killed by strange man
who was seeking Miss Helen Gould.
Dean Snow Is married to a cousin
of Miss Helen Gould, and Miss Gould
has been in the habit of visiting her
cousin and remaining over night.
There was a report that Miss Gould
was in the house last night. but this
the dean denied. He said however,
that the intruder probably thought
that the house belonged to Miss Gould,
that she was in 1t and that he went
there with the idea of getting money.

HnRSOti A Joke

At home, even in the congressional
district which sent him to congress, the
Hon. Richmond Pearson Hobson is con-
sidered something If joke. Abroad,
but more especially in Japan they can
not be expected to have his true meas
ure. The American people thought very
well OF Iobson for his gallant action
of going under the fire of the forts and
sinking the Merrimac in the channel
to blockade the Spanish squadron in
the harbor. They still honor him for
that, but have had little reason to COM
mend him since for anything that he
has done. He has not added to his
reputation for wisdom or common sense
in the years since he left the navy.
Even at the democratic national con-
vention the delegates, members of the
party which he represents in congress,
hardly could be persuaded to give him
hearing. He was almost hooted from
the platform. His sincerity is unques-
toned, but the sincerity of mono
maniac has little to recommend it. If
the Japanese could be made to under
stand the opinion the American rcpplo
have of Hobson his speeches il CT o2s

REFLECTIONS OF A
BACHELOR GIRL

REFLECTIONS OF A
BACHELOR GIRL
A mans shoulders are not always
as broad as they're padded.
You'd think every man was a
beauty show from the critical way
in which he sizes up the women.
Men say they hate everything
loud about woman; 1t must be dis
gust that makes them always turn
around to stare after a peroxide
blonde.
There are some men who, before
marriage, would risk their lives to
pick up your parasol from in front
of a whizzing automobile who
wouldn't get of the sofa after mar
riage to pick up anything you
might drop, from hint to the
baby.
A husband gets so used to his
wife's conversation that after a
while it doesn't interrupt his read
ing of the newspaper any more than
the plunking in the steam pipe.
OF course, men desire circum-
spect woman above all things, but
they seldom invite her out to sup
per.
Nothing bores a man worse than
the devotion Of the girl before the
last.
Love letters lead to all sorts of
complications, but post cards tell
no tales.
