Chance TO Move ID.

practically all the most desirable
positions OF the railroads today are
occupied by men who have risen
from the ranks. On my own division
of a railroad | have seer the agent
at a small station work up into the
position of auditor at So or Sc a day.
The young fellow who used 10
drag the chain and figure out angles
and curves on the track Is now the
superintendent of a division. The
boy who used to play round the cars
and twist brakes just for fun in a
small yard up country Is now a res
ponsible trainmaster.
Il often wondered as | watched
him at play what he would one day
do with his earnestness and en-
thusiasm. The telegraph operator at
S1.25 a day, who worked overtime
without a murmur, and held to a
miserable job with grim determine
ton, is now the general manager of
a big system.
Still more interesting is the story
of the water boy who became in time
a passenger brakeman. One day he
made a mistake and derailed a train.
He went right into the Office and
confessed his negligence. Before
long, for his honesty, he was pro-
NOTED. At the age of &c he was gen
eral ticket agent. Today he probably
ranks first in his line of business in
the United States.
All these men work within a few
feet of each other in one railroad
station. The building swarms with
such men, and when you come to
look into the matter closely you will
be told hat in these and all other
but the main characteristic OF these
men has been their strict attention
TO duty and their lifelong devotion

And recite TO me the story OF the

There | knelt beside my mother in the

As the vesper bells were tinkling
from the village chureh's tower,
And repeated as she told me, Nov /

Softly then we'd say together. Il pray
Thee Lord, my soul to keep"
Then, with hat fond love that moth

Gently she would take and rock me in
her dear arms to and fro.
No, the castle in your story could not
be a home to me
When compared with childhood's

Mothers love is not forgotten, though
her counsels are denied;
Though i follow not the pathway that

Mothers kiss upon my forehead
would alleviate all pain
And the sun would shed its radiance
over all the earth again,

And | wish that she were with me

Whaf Is a GenfIeman2

One of the magazines has recently
been making a collection of different
ideas about what is meant by the
word gentleman" The following
are some of the definitions it re,
ceived:
"A gentleman is a manly man
with at least a reasonable degree OF
intelligence, who lives as nearby as
possible a truly Christian life. If he
Is all this, he will possess all the
lesser essentials"
And this: "A gentleman is one who
is as gentle as a woman and as manly
as a man.
Or this one from a oma "Sev.
eral years ago l read in a book of an
old lady, who said, The word gentle.
man. comprises all of the morality
AMI a great deal of religion.
thought the definition perfect and
mean to instill those words into the
training of my two little boys"
A longer one goes more into detail.
"A gentleman is he who is never
mean or little in his disputes. He
never takes an unfair advantage and
never mistakes personalities or sharl
sayings for arguments. He guards
against unreasonable illusions OF
topics which irritate. He never
speaks of himself except when com.
PEELED and never defends himself by
a mere retort."

COrnered,

Five young men went into a shop
recently TO buy a hat each.
Seeing that they were in a joking
mood, the shopman said
Are you married."
They each said Yes"
Then I'll give a hat to the one
who can truthfully say he has not
kissed any other woman but his own
wife since he was married.
Hand over that hat" said one of
the party. I've won it,"
when were you married."
Yesterday" was the reply, and
the hat was handed over.
One of the others was laughing
heartily while telling his wife of the
joke, but suddenly pulled up when
she said
81 say, John. how was II you didn't
bring home one?"

ADMITS he KILLED
AGED PREACHER
AND WIFE
John Sears, Negro, Confesses To
Police That He Committed Crime
To Get Share Of Estate As Pro-
vided BY Will.
Prisoners Mother Had Been En-
ployed As Servant in House
For AZ Years.

TRENTON, n. j.. Nov. 25.-John
Sears confessed today that he killed
Rev AmZi l.. Armstrong to get share
OF his estate that was coming to him
after the preachers death.
Armstrong and his wife. Annie Rue
Armstrong were murdered at their
home at Dutch Neck, nine miles east
of this city Wednesday night. Sears.
who Is a halfbreed Negro, made a
number of damaging statements under
cross-examination. He had been sub
jected to a rigorous third degree"
before he confessed.
Rachel Sears, mother Of the man.
has been a servant in the Armstrong
home for 40 years. The police worked
on the theory that only someone who
knew intimately the habits OF the min
lister and his wife could have commit
ted the crime. This fact, and the dis
covery that Mrs Sears told an entire
ly different story from that OF her son
caused the police to work on Sears.
The fact that the apartments were
not looted and that the gun with
which the shooting was done was one
which Sears had borrowed from q
neighbor on Nov. Ia, were regarded as
telling points against him.
