New York, March 14.-DeSpite
criticism in certain high quarters,
the malefactors Of great wealth"
continue to prosper. The Standard
Oil Company of New Jersey to-day
paid a quarterly dividend Of SIS per
share, or 10 per cent, for the quarter
ending March 81.
AS a result of this disbursement,
our distinguished friend, John d.
Rockefeller, puts $3,S52, $40 between
him and the poor house. Three
months ago he received a little pin
money of the same amount. His an
maui income from Standard Oil stock
alone is over $15, 900 900, by about a
million and a quarter a month
For the past three years the New
Jersey corporation has declared a div
idend Of SIS per share for this quar-
ter In 1908 it paid $50. in order to
get rid of a few millions in super
fiuous coin. The dividend of this
philanthropic Institution. which has
placed midnight oil in the reach of
the most humble, is now at the rate
of 500, O00, 900 a year. As the total
capitalization is 100000, 900, this is
at the modest rate of so per cent.
According to the records. John D.
Rockefeller has drawn $143, Sol, $40
in dividends from his New Jersey
STANDARD Oil stock in the last eight
years. 1t must not be imagined,
however, that he has been forced to
subsist OF such a modest income.
MFR Rockefeller owns much stock in
other oil, railroad and industrial cor
porations, which serves to bring his
dividend receipts to quite a respect
able figure.
Irish to Celebrate.
Il has been said that New York

there are not few-is preparing to
celebrate st. Patrick's Day with a
greater outburst of enthusiasm than
ever before. All Irish business men
will close their places of business at
noon, and the municipal government
will give a half-hohday to all en-
pIoyeS of Irish birth.
One of the most notable events of
the day will be the banquet of the
Friendly Sons of st. Patrick. The
speakers of the evening will be Gov
ernor Hughes, Secretary Taft and
Governor Johnson, of Minnesota, and
while it is said that their addresses
will be devoid OF political signIf-
canoe, such a meeting of distinguish
ed presidential aspirants will I'M
doubtedly attract wide attention.

of breaking large stones into small
ones. Those familiar with Humme1's
sojourn on the island state that be-
reports were false. and that the pris-
oner has enjoyed the best of health,
that he has not been forced to wear
the clothing Of the other prisoners
and that his most strenuous labor has
been in eating the deHcacies and
perusing the books and papers
brought him by faithful friends. Thus
is the city administration relieved Of
the hateful charge that it has forced
man of Hummel's wealth, culture
and ability to indulge in anything so
vulgar as manual labor.
