WANT MORGAN FOR
MAYOR OF NEW YORK

New York. Aug. 31.-J. Pierpont
Morgan is to be asked to accept fu-
sion nomination for mayor on a bust
ness reconstruction platform. The
financier is the only person who can
save the city from ruin in financial
way, say the politicians. The COM
mittee of 100 is heartily in favor Of
the financier and wants him to take
charge of the muddled finances of the
city and place the corporations on a
sound economic basis.
1t is regarded as probable that a
conference will be held with Mr.. Nor
gan during the next few days and that
if he shows an inclination to accept
the overtures of the politicians there
will be very strong union of effort
and sentiment among all the anti Tam
many forces to bring about his nomi
nation and election.

the factory the spring of the child's
life snaps and its spirit is completely
broken. The outlook upon life of
child emerging illiterate and listless
from five to six years Of work at dead

all encouraging. and 1t is not to be
wondered at that many children with
such task develop into tramps and
criminals. The policy of extracting
work from children and exploiting
their slow growing strength is vicious
and entirely self destructive. 1t seems
almost an absurdity. a reflection upon

Granville Williams will leave next

hunt pearl bearing mussels. He ex-

today. Two of the pearls are unusu-

shape are not as valuable as they
would be if round. One of the pearls
while very small, is of great value be-
cause it is of the gold variety.
