We want to have word with the
boys in the families where The Time,
goes, I'm this column today.
We want TO tell them how they can
become successes.
We are going to take the success OF
man who has just been elected
governor of a great state, and anal
we that success.
The girls may read il too.
They of course, cannot hope to be
governors ever. unless the boys we
are going to talk to will promise us
that when they grow up the will honor
their mothers and repay them by Civ
ing women a vote.
We would say to the girls, though,
that men have been successes and
never held office, and many and many
woman has been a success though
denied the privilege Of holding office
We take the success of the man who
has just been elected governor for an
example because that election repre-
sents the browning of life's ambition.
Early in life he made that office his
goal.
He didn't succeed the first time, nor
the second time. but at each reverse
he resolved with added determination
to try again. and he kept on trying
until he got there.
The man is Chase S. Osborn and the
great state whose good fortune IT is
to have him as governor is Michigan

A Word With Boys; Yes, and
the Girls, Too, and Grown-ups
It's About Man Who Once Served Rousabou
and What Where is

He finally went 10 Chicago and be
gan as a reporter on a Chicago dali!
paper.
Later he went TO Milwaukee, where
newspaper jobs not being plentiful III
went 10 work as roustabout in q
lumber yard
Later opportunity presented Itself
and he began his newspaper career
In which he has since continued.
That is enough of his life story tc
make the point we want TO bring out
for our boys, our girls and. yes our
grown-ups.
There were no newspaper jobs to be
had in Milwaukee.
And, instead of cussing his luck and
looking down on the world as being
against him, he went to work in a
lumber yard.
There is the idea!
Grit and determination.
1t finds governors in roustabouts
in lumber yards; IL found a president
once behind a grocer's counter at a
country crossroads.
The other day we read of a man or
party of men who were driving
well for water and struck coal.
That, perhaps you would call luck.
1t was in a way and. again, it wasn't.
The men who struck the coal were
driving a well.
They would have been satisfied with
water. Coal is their reward for driv-
ing.
When Chase S. Osborn could not get
chance at his profession i'm Milwau-
kee, he looked about him for a field
some field in which he could keep driv-
ing.
He was ambitious and real ambi-
ton never stopped at soiled hands.
Get a purpose boys and keep at 1t.
1t won for the man who will be the
next governor of Michigan and it will
for you.
Have that purpose big purpose.
Resolve at the outset that there is
no height OF success that is impossible.

BIG CONVENTION
 COMES TO CLOSE

Washington, September 2s.-What is considered to be the most successful con- vention of its kind ever held under the auspices of the Catholic church in Amer lea came to an end today when President Taft commended the efforts of the 300 delegates to the first annual conference of Catholic charities and wished them success in their nationwide movement.
 Following the closing session of the con- ference the delegates went to the east room of the White House and listened with interest to the laudatory remarks of the President.
 Just before adjournment the conference sent the following cablegram to Pope Plus x:
 "The National Conference of Catholic charities, convened in the Catholic Uni versity of America for the assistance of our poor brethren begs your apostolic blessings on their labors."
 One of the most important actions of the conference was a decision to appoint a committee in every city in the United States which will form network over the country for the protection of girls These committees will be composed of representatives of all Catholic women charity organizations in each city. will work together and constantly keep in touch with the National Conference of Catholic charities
 The committee will draw up plan of study in order to discover the local conditions in each city; construct a gen. eral plan of preventive work; cooperate with other agencies working along sim liar lines, and will develop a policy de-

Views of the Iron Age

New York, September 2s.-(special. .)- The Iron Age will say tomorrow:
 The developments of the past week have not been calculated to stimulate a demand for iron and steel products The uncertainties in the outlook are such as the conference of several large manu- lecturers of steel and the assuring state ment which followed it. were not suffi- lcient to remove. Buying for immediate needs Is the policy of consumers all along the line. and on their part producers are adjusting operations accordingly.
 The heavy lines with which last week S rumors of a price war were chiefly con- cerned have been .quietest. The lighter products are fairly active. More inquiry has appeared for sheets and prices are frmer than in recent weeks, manufac- turers more generally quoting $220 for No. 2S, whereas s2.15 has been considered the market price recently.
 Rail orders include 10000 tons for the Duluth. Rainy Lake and Winnipeg Ex- port rail business continues good Among late contracts is 10000 tons additional for the National Railways of Mexico.
 Pig iron is sagging. More business Is being done for 1911 and the important development here Is that the advance recently asked over prices ruling for early delivery Is fading away. Some northern furnace companies have sold for the first quarter, and even first half of next year, at very close to today's prices.
 The recent low prices on basic iron in the east and the accumulation of stocks in the past two weeks, due to held-up shipments, are bringing further curtailment of output in New Jersey and the Lehigh and Schuylkill valleys.

MORE F|RMNESS IN
 THE IRON MARKET Demands of Buyers Show That
 Stocks Are Low LARGE SALES ARE MADE In Some Instances Prices Are Slightly Higher for Pig Iron-Finished
 Steel Products Are in
 Good Demand
LARGE SALES ARE MADE

Cleveland, Ohio, September 2S.-(Spe- cial)-The Iron Trade Review tomor- row will say:
 The iron market has weathered the storm of rumors of price reductions and prices show an increased frmness. even in sheets which have been the weakest product on the market for a long time. One of the most encour- aging features of the present condi- tions Is the insistence of many buyers upon prompt delivery of finished mate- rials, their attitude clearly showing that their stocks are low.
 Interest in pig iron is centered large 1y in negotiations for delivery during the first quarter and first half of next year, but buyers and sellers find some difference in reconciling their views In some cases as in that of a New Eng land buyer who purchased 400o tons an advance of 25 cents over this years price was obtained for delivery next year. In other cases furnace interests are asking and occasionally obtaining a 50 per cent advance. A sale of 1900 tons of Bessemer at $15 valley for de- livery the first quarter of next year Is regarded as fixing the price of Val ley Bessemer for that delivery. Pipe makers have been active inquirers and also In making sales in eastern terri tory. The leading cast iron pipe in- terest Is negotiating for pig iron to cover its requirements In making 21.- 300 tons of pipe for Portland, Me. water works. recently awarded. This will probably be made from the com pany's Pennsylvania plants. radiator interest which has been in the market for several weeks for 42,00O tons, Is ex pected to make a purchase soon. Chicago steel company is inquiring for 10000 tons of basic and foundry near Cleveland Is in the market for 4500 tons of northern and southern foundry grades. A car manufacturing company In St. Louis Is inquiring for a round tonnage. Among the contracts for structural material were 30,0OO tons for the Commonwealth Edison company. Chicago, to George w. Jackson, Inc. 2200 tons for the New Jersey Zinc oompany's new buildings, the Lacka- wanna Bridge company, 1900 tons for the Corbett building, Portland, Ore, to the Northwestern Steel company; 200o tons to the American Bridge company for two apartments in New York city: 1000 for a building at Oakland, Cal. to the Judson Iron works.

that line.
DISCRIMINATION of the traffic

Fifty thousand workers and other
Industries are rendered idle through

The loss of perishable goods is
enormous. Whole catches of herring

The Amalgamated Society of RAJ

This attitude on the part of the
society, which embraces the whole
country, will probably prove fatal
to the success of the strike.

MINISTER is FOUND GUILTY.
Rev. J. T. Rivins Then Secedes from
Free Methodist Church.

Salina, July 20.-Guilty on six out
of nine counts on charges of immoral
conduct is the verdict found against
Rev. j. r. Bivins by a committee OF
preachers and laymen of the Free
Methodist church after two days
hearing. As a result of the findings of
the committee Rev Mr.. Bivins, who
protests his innocence, has formally
seeded from the Free Methodist
church. followed by all but three of
his flock. He will remain in Salina
and it is likely that the seeding or
ganization will be formed into a CON
gregation of the Church of the Re-
deemer, a new sect which is now
spreading in Kansas,
The charge brought against Mr..
Bivins was in regard to statements,
alleged to be false and slanderous,
said to have been made by him from
the pulpit and in private as to rela-
tions said to exist between Walter
Scott, an ordained minister Of the
Free Methodist church, residing here,
and Martha Wakefield, PAS North Front
street, wife of Will Wakefield, a
prominent member of the Sanna
church. The charge was preferred on
June "a by Mrs. Lizzie Weaver, $40

as soon following the bringing of the
charge as the laws of the church
would permit.

FOR SUPPOSED MURDERER OF
RAWN WILL BE DROPPED.
FAMILY INSIST UPON MURDER
Members Of the Family Of the Dead
Man Insist That He Was Shot to
Death by Burglar and They Are
Continuing Investigation.

Chicago, H., July 2l-Ira G. Rawn,
the railroad president, committed
suicide, and the Chicago police will
drop the investigation and search
for the murderer, said Herman
Schuttler, acting chief OF police, to-
day.
Despite the withdrawal of the po-
lice, private detectives employed by
the Rawn family continued the in
vestigation and steadfastly declare
that Rawn was killed by bur
glar.
The bullet hole in Rawn's night
garments was carefully examined by
the police and they say that the
appearance of same leads to the
suicide belief.
