west as civil engineer at q salary that
would be worth having. He gave It up
and told his father he would stay by the
old farm and try to save 1t.
He used his college education.
He used his brains az well as his
hands.
He settled up the law suits as best he
could
He applied modern methods to the old
farm,
He raised his own corn instead Of buy

sponded nobly TO his efforts

made more money than he could had he

THE WOMAN OF THE FUTURE.

Those who think that the freedom,
independence and educational advan-
tages Of the woman of today are
detrimental to her best development
should take a long look backward
and then, in the light of what he
sees, a long look forward, and, we
think, he will decide that the woman
of the future will be a vast improve
ment over the woman of the past
With men, for instance, compari-
son of the uneduoated, uncultured
cracker" of some backwoods region
with some foremost scientist of ~
center of civilization gives a vivid
picture of what advancement means.
The Cracker" is simply the product
of his environment. Give him gener-
ations of education, culture, associa-
ton with the best civilization offers,
and he VIII becme re cultured, use.
full member of society the scientist
is. And, looking ahead, the scientist
of today will fall far short of what
the same type will be hundreds of
years hence.
The same conditions are true of
women And yet the scientist is of
more value to the world and more
truly what a man should be than is
the Cracker" so viii the developed
woman be more useful and happier
For anyone who hnds his powers
and uses them is more truly fulfilling
the purpose of living. AS all prog
ress is from the material to the
mental and spiritual the path ahead
of women is inspiriting.
The women of the ruture will be
able to leave behind her the purely
practical burdens that ilave kept
her eyes down to earth. She can
straighten up her back, bowed by
centuries of the hardest toll, look up
and see the sky. Not that these tasks
will be neglected, out science and
Invention are doing these
better than she can. Already she NJ

purpose of securing more Portuguese
laborers for the sugar plantations.
President Ivers stated this morn

over a week ago to make another trip
to bring as many laborers as he
could with the money available but,
so far he had not given any definite
answer.
Mr.. Campbell remarked that it was
true that he had been offered the po-
sition as special agent for the board

BLACKMAIL BY BOYS
Two Youths Write "Biack Hand"

NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-Two boys
were arrested tonight in Central Park
in connection with black hand let
ter received recently by Mrs. Louisine
Havemeyer, widow Of Henry o. Have
meyer, sugar magnate.
The letter was written in boyish
scrawl signed BLACK Hand" and en-
bellished with a dagger pierced heart,
a revolver and a bottle marked poison.
1t reads in part:
I'VE demand $4,000 of you as a
contribution to the black hand or
ganization If it is not forthcoming
we will blow up your house or kill
your family. You cannot escape.
Don't tell the police or your family
will suffer. Rich people pay our de-
mands and they have no more trouble
and we protect them. With revolver
or dagger. or poison in your food, We
will reach you"
Explicit directions were given to
place the money in tin box Feb
ruary "a behind the park wall opposite
Mrs. Havemeyer's Fifth avenue house.
Tonight Mrs. Havemeyer, accompanied
by two detectives, carried out the in
structions. They found the box and
placed in it a roll Of paper wrapped
in a 81 bill. Mrs. Havemeyer returned
home and the detectives arrested the
BOYS when they came for the box an
hour later. The boys say they were
paid by an Italian to get the box.
