\ THRIFTY" CHURCH.

= Charles Edward Russell, the talent
ga author and magazine writer, has
an article on Trinity church, New
York. and It's Industrial features in
Eyerybody's magazine for July. This
article reveals a most astonishing
thrift" on the part Of Trinity and also
uncovers some very unsavory facts as
r. is industrial methods aud practi-
ces.
Mr.. Russell says:
Trinity church is the holder of one
of the greatest estates in New York or
in the country. II owns in the city
property worth. according to different
estimators.. from $4,000, 900 to $780,
600. 900. from which it draws an enor-
NOUS revenue. the amount of which is
never made public.
For many years no investigator has
been able 10 obtain any more deffi-
mite knowledge Of these matters than
than this is the wealth of Trinity
which she holds for good purposes.

SPURIOUS COIN A LURE.
Psychology of Counterfeiting Is
 Puzzle to Federal Authorities.

Like the fly which lights on papel carefully smeared with molasses fol his benefit, the man who lets hii thoughts dwell upon queer money is caught hard and fast, unless he gets the idea out of his head as soor as 1t enters" That is the psychology of counterfeiting, as explained by Captain Thomas J. Porter of the United States secret service to the Chicago Record-Herald.
 AS a further illustration of his theory, Captain Porter reverted tc the case of the Rev James R. Kaye the Oak Park minister convicted of making bad coin.
 Men who counterfeit want to get rich quickly" explained Captain Por- ter. Tt is funny, though, how the game attracts a man who is other wise honest. The man who is at- traeted at first by the prospect of making money easily in this way ar gues that he is doing no wrong.
 He simply says to himself that he will make a few thousand dollars of spurious money and then shove it out in a safe way. He argues with him. self that the money will be accepted by every one, and that 1t really is the same as the money stamped as legal tender by the government, and only the government will lose.
 He begins to read about counter feiting. and the more he reads the easier the thing seems. Ten to one he has a taste for mechanics. and any man with a simple knowledge of met als. if he has the proper dies, can turn out a pretty fair representation of a dollar or other silver coin.
 Most of the old time counterfeit CTS have gone out of business or are serving terms in penitentiaries, and many of the spurious coins made at the present time are manufactured by men who are respected in the com munitles in which they live.
 "Counterfeiting bank notes is more difficult than making spurious coins but after a man has been successful with silver pieces he takes up the other. and. with study and persever- ance, can turn out a few bills. How ever. these makers of bad money never last long. They are run to earth sooner or later. Then comes their realization of the crime they have been involved in. The govern ment is a relentless enemy and the punishment for making spurious money is severe. but the wrongdoers never realize this until they are fairly caught.
 Every man believes in his own heart that he is sharper and shrewd- CT than his neighbor. When he reads stories of counterfeiters vho flourish ed years ago he sees what blunders they made and how they came to be caught
 T can do better than that fellow did and those dub detectives could never have caught me in the trap they laid for him Is the way the amateur eOunterfeitsr musss- He figures 1t all cut to his orn satisfsc- tion. but he fails to give the men h Uncle Sans service credit for any brains or originality of thought. He thinks. that they work the same way on every case and that all he has to do is to observe the pitfalls that the other men fell into and De careful not to walk into then himself.

"The one danger that most busi- ness men view with horror is so- cialism, the idol that has wrecked one republic after another, and thas crouches to-day like an incubus upon the neck of Australia, said Govern or Guild in a recent speech. The strongest argument for government ownership, the argument of despair. is that state ownership is the only relief from graft. The man who is doing more for socialism, commun- ism and anarchy to-day than any other is the highly respectable busi- ness man who for any reason buys legislation. Graft could never exist but fofr the man behind the grafter. The state owes consideration to the business man. The business man in turn owes an imperative duty to ths state. Legislation is the business of the state. Citizenship is the business of the people. One Is the complement of the other, and only on their combined strength can arise that ideal commonwealth in which obedience to the law is lib. erty.'"

FOR STEALING A BALLOON.
New Jersey Man Who Cabbaged .
 Bag That Fell in His Yard.


 Bloomfield, N. J., Aug 13.-Here's a problem in aeronautical law which was presented to Justice of the Peace Bosset of Newark. If As balloon lands on B's property, it. self doing no damage, and a crowd Of men and boys actuated by eager ness to get near the descending bal. loon and without malice trample B's garden, which they cross to reach the spot where the balloon has landed, is A, the aeronaut, re, sponsible for the damage to B's prop erty, and if so can B hold As bal loon as security for the payment for said damage? -..7
 The question came up in this way. A balloon belonging to Johnny Mack, a professional aeronaut, came down Sunday afternoon in the yard of John Dey of Willow street. Mack had left the balloon in a parachute some distance away. Dey was arous. ed by a crowd, which overran his place, and dragged the balloon into his cellar and locked 1t up. When Mack traced the balloon and at- tempted to obtain possession of it Dey put in bill for the damage the crowd had done to his garden. This bill Mack refused to pay and Dey refused to give up the balloon. Mack then applied to the justice of the peace for a warrant for Dey's ar- rest on the charge of grand larceny.
 After consideration the justice gave the warrant. Dey was arrested and gave s1.000 bail to guarantee hts appearance before the grand IuIT. He did not. however, surren- der the balloon. and Mack will ask for a writ Of replevin.

the tariff will be revised and the trusts will be compelled to reduce prices, which will lead to greater consumption and eventually much more prosperity than ever known before. For it must be remembered that tariff taxes are an embargo on business and by raising prices pre- vent the people from buying, for d man cannot spend more money than he earns. The cheaper goods are sold the more can be bought and consumed, thus writes a Washington observer. The republican idea that high prices of manufactured prod ucts produce prosperity to any one except the trusts or manufacturers, is so absurd that it is wonder that any voter is deceived by it. For in, stance, less than one out of hun
 dred people are able to wear or use
 real woolen goods, because the price is too high. They have to be satisfied with mercerized cotton and shoddy with just enough wool, in some cases to deceive the eyes ot the buyers. Every one would like to use, when winter comes, clothes made of ''all wool and a yard wide" |" but the tariff protected wooleh trust is protected by the tariff in not only being able to put down the price of wool to the farmer, but to keep up the price of its products to the consumers. The beef trust has been reducing the price of cat tie and sheep and putting up the price of beef and mutton, because it is protected by the tariff in so do- ing, and in spite of the so-called trust busting, the trust is still do- ing business at the old stand anG has virtual monopoly of the buy ing of cattle and sheep and the sale of beef and mutton. And these things, many others like them, are all done under the plundering sys- tenn called protection, which repub- licans declare is the cardinal princi- pie of their party.
