Pittsburg Gains
On Gotham

Washington, July 29.-The Industrial
district of Pittsburg is growing faster
than any other in the United States,
in number of manufacturing establish
ments, but that of New York shows
the greatest actual gain in value of
products. and that of Buffalo makes
the best showing in percentage of
gain.
These are some of the interesting
conclusions from the census bulletin
on Industrial districts, just issued. No
other Industrial district. however, is
comparable with New York in extent
of business. In 1905 this district in
Guiding an area of 702 square miles,
turned out s2,144,O0o,000 Of products,
a gain of 1928 per cent over 1900, while
Chicago the second Industrial district.
turned out in 1905 only 970000000 Of
products, and showed a gain of only
20.4 per cent over 1900. Buffalo, Boston
and Pittsburg were the only districts
in the list which showed a greater per-
centage of gain in output than did
New York but in actual output they
We're SO far behind New York

THE YOUNG MANS CHANCES.

It is characteristic of youth to go
rainbow chasing. And it is sometimes
the case that men who have long since
passed their youth, set out in quest OF
the pot of gold at the rainbow end.
Sometimes the rainbow is a stretch OF
land to be opened to settlement some
times it is new mining country well
equipped with imaginative press
agents; and sometimes it is no rain
bow at all, but just touch of wander
lust in the blood. Whatever it is there
are many who see in 1t their chance
What Is there at home that promises
them any return on an investment?
They don't know. They haven't invest

hit the trail that leads to their DO

but If they are 1t is because they
buckIed down to it whole lot harder
than they had ever buckled down be

carefully Fiction never recorded a
stranger story than the rise of this
poor youth, who. discouraged, hungry
and ragged battled with fate in striv-
ing for his ideal until he won success
through sheer force of an iron will.
And the part Johannes Scheiwe play
ed in influencing Edstrom to give up
his gambling associates and turn to de-
veloping his wonderful talents should
not be overlooked. But for the advice
and assistance of the Ottumwa artist
Edstrom might never have risen above
the level Of his obscure youth.
