AN IDEAL CHOICE
Is Taft'S Selection for American
Minister To China.

OnarleS II. Crane, or chicago,
the noted elevator manufacturer,
who has been chosen by President
Taft to represent the United
States as minister to China, sue.
ceeding w. w. Rockhill, taken
from China to be ambassador to
Russia, was born in Chicago and
is fifty-one years old.
Mr.. Crane is one of the greatest
travellers in this country. He has
set foot in nearly every country
on the globe, and is as much at
home in Russia or China as he is
on Michigan boulevard in Chica-
go. He is a linguist of consider
able attachments, is a connoisseur
in paintings, collector of old and
rare books. and reader of the
same. He is prominent as a civic
enthusiast, and for years has been
powerful factor in movements
for the advancement of Chicago,
commercially, physically and NOR
ally.
He was educated in the public
schools of Chicago, and after he
graduated he donned overalls and
jacket and entered the employ of
the company of which his father
was head. He learned the bust
ness from the bottom to the top,
and after serving in various ca
pacities from the lathe to the book
keepers stool he became first Vice
President of the concern in 1894,
and took charge of the foreign
business of the company. In as
Stunning control of its foreign af-
fairs Mr.. Crane started his career
as traveller.
During his spare moments, Mr..
Crane had found time for extern
sive study, and by the time most
young men are leaving college
with a smattering knowledge of a
long list of subjects he had aSsimi-
leted two foreign languages and
could speak them like a native.
Early in the course of his business
affairs he went TO Russia. He
went into all the provinces. He
met officials and peasants and
made a close study of life.
When not in Chicago or Russia,
Mr.. Crane was ranging the globe
elsewhere. He formed a passion
for paintings, and started to make
a collection, which today is one of
the best in Chicago.
During his travels Mr.. Crane
spent much time in China, his
business interests taking him into
every. province. He came into
close contact with ali classes OF
Mongolans.
In his library are books written
in a dozen different languages.
When he wants to look up a topic
he takes down books in several
different languages and reads them
without the aid of a lexicon. He
is said to read twelve languages
and to speak with ease and huence
six or eight.

Meaning OF an inch of Rainfall.

An acre is 6,272,640 square
inches. An inch of water on an
acre is, therefore 6,272, $40 cubic
inches. That amount at 277 cubic
inches to the gallon, equals $4,000
gallons or 100000 pounds or 100
tens. An inch of rain is, in other
words, rain falling at the rate of
400 tons to the acre. philadelphia

The largest friction saws in the
world are used in one of Chicago's
huge construction plants. They
cut through a ten-inch steel beam
In fourteen seconds. These saws
or discs are SO made that they
generate enough heat at the point
of contact to literally melt their
way through the metal being cut.
The cutting edge of the disc is
rougheLed by simply hacking with
a fsh-tail chisel.

Judge liadSey'S Decision on the
Cigarette.

There is probably no public man
In the country who has made a
more exhaustive study of the
causes that lead to the downfall
OF boys than has Judge Ben. B.
Lindsey, the Judge of the juvenile
court of Colorado. In an article
written for the Sunday School
Times, Philadelphia, Pa, he has
this to say regarding one of those
causes:-
Il have been in the juvenile
court nearly ten years, and in that
time ] have had to deal with
thousands and thousands of boys
who have disgraced themselves
and their parents, and WHO have
brought sorrow and misery into
their lives; and | do not know of
any one habit that is more re-
sponslOle for the troubles of these
boys than the vile cigarette habit"
We are not to argue from this
that it IS generally only the natu-
rally vicious that take up the use
of the cigarette. But the con-
tinue 4 Inhalation of the poison of
the cigarette has dulling or
deadening influence upon the
moral sensibilities of the user;
and after becoming addicted to
the habit, he will do things that
he would not think of doing be-
fore. To the increasing indulg-
ence in the use of the cigarette we
must attribute, to very large ex-
tent, the great increase in crime
among the youth of this and other
countries. Liberty.
