Mumcra Not Sick, But Refuses to Get
Up-Lives at County Farm.
Jerseyville, Ill.-The LATEST man in
the world lives in this village. His
name is John Mumcra, and he has
been in bed ten years because he is
unwilling to comply with the rules OF
the Jersey County Farm, which say
that every one living there shall rise
at a. m.
Mumcra is not sick. He eats regu-
larly and is in perfect health.
IT am ready to hold up my hand
and swear that he has kept his word"
said Superintendent Mourning of the
County Farm. John has been in bed
ten years, and he says he will stay
there the remainder of his life.
"He just lies there and looks at the
ceiling, or rolls over once in a while
and takes a nap. When he talks it is
all about how foolish man Is to get
up every morning when he knows he'll
have to go back to bed again at night"

Chicago.-Richard T. Crane, multi.
millionaire, like Robert Louis Steven.
son, author, believes more men are
spoiled than made by college educa.
tions. The multi-millionaire, who
spent his early life chiefly in labor,
having little time for study" feels
much more strongly on the subject
than the famous graduate of the Uni
versity Of Edinburg, for he favors put
ting the torch to the universities sup
ported wholly or partly by the various
States.
The occasion for this latest express
sion of the views of Mr.. Crane, who
made his millions in building eleva-
tors, is that members of the Legisla-
ture asked his advice on the question
of increasing the appropriation for the
University of Illinois. The university
was organized in 1867. This years ap-
preparation was $4,000 900. For fifteen
years the appropriations have aver
aged $2,000,000. Before that they
were not so large. The university,
situated at Urbana, has 4,600 students
who pay from $50 to S110 a year for
tuition, and has a library of 100000
! volumes. Mr.. Crane, in his letter to
the legislators, says:
81 have given a great deal Of
thought and study to the subject of
higher education, and have conducted
several systematic investigations with
regard to this and many other institu-
tions engaged in advanced lines Of
education. In fact, as far as I know,
am the only one who has ever taken
up this subject in a businesslike way,
and the conclusion l have reached is
that practically every one of these in
stitutions Is fraud and an imposition
on the public.
I'm trying some years ago to find
out the utility of an academic educa-
tion for young men who have to earn
their own living inquiries were made
not only of graduates from the col
lege and universities, but also Of those
who had engaged these graduates in a
business way, and the result as shown
was anything but creditable to the
university.
81 am prepared even to go much
further than this, for maintain that
instead of being benefit, such insti-
tutions as this are a positive curse
and are doing vast amount of harm
by demoralizing the youth of this
country.
Instead of appropriating funds for
such institutions it would be a good
deal better for the State to put q
torch to them and burn them down
to go out of the higher education
business, and permit the boys to &C
back to their homes and assist in sup
porting their families instead of caus
ing them heavy expense"
Mr.. Crane is now seventy-sever
years of age. In 1903 he married, as
his second wife, Miss Emily Hutchin
son, who was then under thirty, and
settled $1,000,000 on her in lieu ol
dover. His company has a profit
sharing system under which more
than 100000 is distributed each yeal
among its employees.

New York, June 30.-An unsuccess-

the list of harmful indulgences by the

The stated clerk, T. G. McClelland,
offered an amendment "that we also

Thereupon ensued a discussion on

Thanksgiving table supplies consist
Ing of nine-pound turkey, plum pud-
ding for four, mincemeat for three pies
celery, parsley, quart Of craberries,
pound OF mixed nuts and three pounds
of sweet potatoes were sold in Chicago
Ten years age yesterday for $l.9b. This
year precisely the same supplies cost
$4.25. If this difference is little above
the average 1t is still safe to assume
that the prices of these and similar pr
ticles have practically doubled in the
last ten years. The department of COM
mere and labor at Washington found
year ago that the increase in the cost
of living in ten years had been 40 per
cent.
Meanwhile the increase in wages has
been small! and the increase in salaries
has been still smaller. And since the
increase in pay has not been nearly SO
large as the increase in the cost of liv.
ing, how have the masses adapted
themselves to the new situation? The
answer is plain. They have simply
and necessarly-lowered their standard
of living The matter of income is after
all measured by what the income will
buy, not by its definition in dollars
aud cents. The incomes of the masses
will not begin to purchase now what
tn y did ten years ago, nor what they
d Two years ago; but unless there is
cliec.s in the encroachments of organ
lied greed they still purchase more
than they will hereafter.
The greatest o. ali factors in the in
crease of the cost of living is the pro
tective tariff The prot ective tariff, in
It's extreme abuses, is also the chef
cause OF the construction Of wealth
And aside from the general suffering
that arises from the inequitable distri-
button of wealth through the tariff
protected trusts and the conditions
they create, this concentration of
wealth is the greatest of all menxccs
to the political security of the nation.
