CARNEGIE TALKS
 OF THE HERO FUND

Paris, June 5.-Andrew Carnegies let ter to Premier Clemenceau donating the hero fund" of $1,O00,000, was made pub lie today. MT. Carnegie writes that the success of the funds In Canada, America and England, induced the desire to ex- tend the benefits to France, "the only ally America ever had After expressing his qualification that an era of pease and good will between England, France and America Is now established, MT. Carnegie said:
 War between these three powers is in- conceivable. They are marching together toward the suppression of the worlds s worst evil-the murder of man by man as a means of settling international dis putes'
 Mir. Carnegie then writes:
 We live In a heroic age, in which men and women and even children often sacrifice their lives to save others, and it Is to reward such that the fund is founded.'
 The rules for the allotments, the classes and the persons to be benefited follow the same lines as the funds elsewhere. The French colonies as well as France will be considered in giving the awards.

DEPEW TELLS MEN
 TO GET MARRIED

Philadelphia. June 5.-"Get married, = was the advice given by United States Senator Depew of New York today at the commencement exercises of the Med ico- Chirurgical college here today.
 Don't marry until you are ready. It's wicked to ask any young woman unless you can support her and yourself" con- tinued Senator Depew.
 But don't be misled by waiting till you get too much money. It is amazing how little you can live on, and you will have a home.
 Don't waste your time. either. You will have little of it during the next few years. Put in your spare time developing phy- sical lines, it's a gift of nature. If you are married you will have just as much time as if you were single, and you know how to find it. Your wife will give you plenty of time waiting for her. Don't fret and fume during the interim-read. I have known men to pick up a liberal edu- cation reading while waiting for their wives to get ready to go out"

A Fable,

Gilson Gardner in Success Magazine.
 Once there was Gander who was fond of Cheese. In the place where the Gan der was there was a large piece of Cheese which belonged to the Gander. The only question was whether or not to eat the Cheese.
 If I should trust myself to open my mouth and eat this Cheese" said the Gander, I might be making a mistake. How can I know that I ought to eat the Cheese2 How can I be sure that it is wise to eat the Cheese?'
 With these considerations the Gander was much troubled and stood looking longingly at the Cheese until a Fox came up and inquired about the Gander's trou- ble
 Trust yourself in a question so inti- mately concerning your welfare and fu- ture happiness!' exclaimed the Fox when he had heard the Ganders trouble, q should say noti What you need is rep resentative somebody to look after your interests and to make wise decisions in all matters concerning the consumption of Cheese. If you will kindly adopt this ring which I will put around your bill and these iron clamps which l will slip upon your legs, you will be perfectly safe. There will be no danger of your doing anything unwise for yourself" At this proposal the Gander was de- lighted, and with warm expressions of thanks assisted in putting the clamps upon it's legs and the ring around it's bill.
 This" said the Fox. will afford you ample opportunity to wait for your second thoughts on anything you may think you want to do.''
 Whereupon the Fox sat down and pro- ceeded to eat the Cheese.

ATLANTA CHARTER
 MAY STAND PAT
Commission Form of Govern-
 ment Is Still a Dream
ALL LEFT TO COMMITTEE
Latest Plan Is to Prepare a New Char ter Embodyfng the Best Features of All Forms of Govern
 ment Submitted.

Atlanta, June 5.-6Special )-After all the talk about it. it has not been settled by any means yet whether Atlanta is to have any new charter at all or not.
 After appointing two committees. one to consider and report upon a charter en- bodying a commission form of govern ment, and the other to devise a new charter along present lines, but material ly revised; and after bringing speakers here from Des Moines, Ia, to debate pro and con the commission form, the con- n1ittee on revision consisting of 49 prom inent Atlanta business and professional men. has practically decided to abandon both of these lines. and has placed ths whole situation in the hands of a new subcommittee of seven, with implied in- structions to consider tho two proposed charters, together with the old one, and dig the best out of all of them.
 This action will result in report being made to the charter revision commission, probably some time next week, of an entirely new form of charter, whose prin- cipal features will be reduction in the membership of council and the various departmental boards, and greater facility of administration.
 With Il wards Atlanta will have next year a council of 8. 22 councilmen and il aldermen, and each ward, under the pres ent plan, has a member on each board. There will be about 125 council and board members, a situation which, it Is re- garded, makes administration most un- wieldy.
 That these bodies will be materially re- dueed, there is no question. It is quite probable that there will be only one councilman from each ward provided for, and probably five aldermen from the city at large, with the board reduced in pro7 portion. Other administrative reforms are also contemplated.
 It was first proposed that two char ters should be drawn, one embodying the commission government and the other the present plan with material revision. Both of these were to be submitted to the peo- pie in a primary election in order that they might determine which plan they desired.
 The latest plan is to prepare a new charter embodying the best features of all the forms which have been submitted, including that under which the city Is now working, and to submit to the peo- pie simply the question of whether they want the new charter or would prefer to retain the old one. If anything like a satisfactory charter Is prepared by the commission, 1t Is a safe prediction that the people will vote for it's adoption in preference to that now in use, whose num- erous imperfections are notorious
