A MORNING THOUGHT
BY J. MARVIN NICHOLS.

It Is true there Is no lower view point than the mere money-value of an education. The average educated man earns $1,000 per year. He works forty fife time. The average day laborer gets $1.50 per day. 300 days in the year, or $450 per year. He earns $18,- 900 in life time. The difference be- tween $40.000 and s1S,000 Is $22.000. This is the minimum value of an edu- increased self-respect you gain can not be measured in dollars and cents.

pseudonym rather than under her own name? The answer is to be found partly in the desire for fair play, which a woman seldom gets from men, and partly from dread of making a public failure. When I say that a woman seldom gets fair play I don't mean that she Is necessarily treated more harshly on account of her sex; I mean that she is often treated with so-called chivalry-in other words a contemptuous indulgence-on account of her sex. The notices of novels in the critical and monthly reviews fre- quently begin with some remark as: This work is written by lady: con- sequently not the subject of severe criticism.

Real sIort And Unju.tifiable Killing.

Real sEort And UnjustifiabIe Killing. Macon Telegraph.
 President Roosevelt's proposed trip to Africa has caused "an unusual delight of killing big game" says The Philadelphia Ledger, and adds: Not long ago a woman hunter was photo graphed standing with her foot proudly planted upon the body of a zebra that she had killed Now, why should a lady kill a zebra? It Is a harmless and picturesque creature. point of refusal to be kind and gentle in harness. To kill 1t requires no more courage than to shoot at tar get. The only danger in the case is that the rifle might kick. Yet the pose of this woman showed that she performance of a bloody and useless act. She had killed other equally in nocent beasts. among them a giraffe. The only possible reason for killing a giraffe is that the animal Is alive. Hunters themselves are fond of liv- by the spectacle of the denizens of plain or jungle presuming also to be alive and enjoying 1t. They go afar to seek and slaughter"
 The answer to this question is that people who have not the courage to go after real game sometimes disgrace themselves. Fearing to venture in the presence of a lion, they get satisfaction by shooting a COW. Of course, there Is no real sport in shooting where there is no element of danger. or where no skill Is required; and of course no killing of birds or beasts is JuStifiable except in order to destroy dangerous or vicious animals, to procure food or to collect specimens for truly scientific nIrnOseS

DEATH CALLS
 CAPTAIN PRICE COLD CAUGHT IN STAND DURING STATE FAIR RACES BROUGHT

Captain Harry 0. Price, for sixteen years identified with the upbuilding of Hot Springs in various ways, and d. rectly in charge of Wilmington Park, last night at 6 o'clock relinquished an uneven fight with death and surround ed by son and daughter at the home on Park avenue, answered the last call.
 Funeral arrangements will be made after hearing from daughter who resides in California, and interment will take place in the city in the fam fly burial plot.
 The death of Captain Price not only removes from active life one of the most prominent figures in ftot Springs. but marks the passing of q man who has had meteoric career in life in other cities. and who twice held fortunes within his grip, only to see the tide turn and have them wrest ed away.
 The last public service Captain Price rendered Het Springs was, pe- culiarly, in the furtheranee of an in terest his brain had inspired and his activity put into execution--the State Fair Captain Price had been s--y- ing as a presiding judge in the stand with Secretary Kennedy until the last day. when he was too i'll to eo to arg track Charley Ellison volunteered his service in the captains stead. and the day marked the beginning of the end of Captain Price.
 While Captain Price was generally known as Harry this was not his name-it was only happy miscalling of his right name taken up by friends. Henry Oscar Price was his full name. He was born in New York in March. 1S41 He resided there until about the time the civil conflict opened. when he became a Union soldier and at the end of the strife had earned the title of captain
 Later Captain Price removed to Pittsburg. where he built up for. tune. Of a speculative nature, Cap tain Price dallied lightly with fortune and twice in his eventful career was
 udependently wealthy When the break of his fortune came in Pitts bury he drifted west. resided awhile in Cleveland and later in Chicago, coming to Hot Springs in 1899 as personal representative of Charles Mckee of Pittsburg. now one of the largesf holders in public utilities in this city.
 Captain Price had all his life been active and identified with sports Tn the history of water contests he has 70 peer for under his supervision in the Allegheny river was pulled off the largest regatta ever held in America.
 When he arrived at Hot Springs he took over inc mana cement Of whittinston Park. which he conduct ed m 10 the time of his death.
