20. HENRY" FAMOUS
STORY WRITER DIES.
VIM. Sidney Porter Passes Away
in New York HOSPITAL.

NEW YORK, June civilian Sid
ney Porter, one of the most popular
short-story writer's in America under
the name of 20. Henry" died at the
Polytechnic Hospital yesterday. He had
suffered for several years from a COM
~plication of diseases. among them.
cirrhosis of the liver and was removed
to the hospital last Friday.
For the last eight years few con-
tributions to the magazines have been
more welcomed by publishers and pub
lie than 20. Henry's." He was one of
the masters of short story writing in this
country, possessing a gift of fine humor
as well as. an ability for dramatic
narration. Although he could write
a tale in irreproachable English, he was
one of the few who could make slang
coining slang words and slang phrases
that stuck in the mind and became
a part Of our lighter language. He was
essentially a humorist.
1t was while he was in New Orleans.
some ten years ago., that he adopted
the pen name of 20. Henry nomde-
plume which seemed, somehow, to fit
his work perfectly. In later years there
were comparatively few people who
knew what his real name was.
A collection of his stories which had
attracted attention was published In
book form in 1905 under the title Cab
bages and Kings 1.-THE Four MilAon''
came out the next year.. "The Trimmed
Lamp" in 1907 and The Heart of the
West toward the end Of the same
year. The most recent Of his stories
which attracted wide attention and
made people laugh, were In a series
which O Henry called Manhattan
Nights Entertainment"

Misconduct.

n Plea For o Graduated Standard OF
Misconduct.
What is really wanted at the present
time Is a standard of misconduct. We
are constantly doing things in doubt,
as II we hadn't right to do them.
The confusion caused by people do
ing things which in their circumstances
we had no right to expect Is the prin-
cipal cause of our troubles. 1t ought
to be definitely settled, for example,
that any millionaire who has, say,
over hundred millions will there
after lead an honest life. If he has
only fifty millions his life should be
semI-honest, and If he has only a paltry
ten millions then 1t ought to be con-
ceded that he can loot few railroads
or 80 until he gets on his feet.
Up to, say, ten thousand year no
man can afford to be dishonest He
ought to get up In the cars and give
his seat to women under thirty-fiye at
least, and of course he will not take
the chance of robbing any safe. From
ten thousand up to a hundred thou
sand he can engage in little dishonest
fiers by making one Of a pool or put
ting through land deal or SO for
variety.
When he gets fifty millions or more
together, however, every man ought
to ask himself plainly the question
whether from now on he ought not to
be a philanthropist. Doesn't he owe
this to his fellow men?-Life.

Some Of the most remarkable crabs

One Of these marine tramps is little

Scottjsh Caution.

Certainly the cautious Scot spirit
pervaded the opinions Of the Scottish
architect who was called upon to erect
a building in England upon the long
lease system, so common with Angli-
can proprietors, but quite new to our
friend. When he found the proposal
was to build upon the tenure of 900
years he quietly suggested "Could ye
no MAX 1t thousand? Nine hundred
and ninety-nine years III be slippln'
awa'."
But of all the cautious and careful
answers we ever heard Of was one
given by carpenter to an old lady in
Glasgow, for whom he was working,
and the anecdote is well authenticat-
ed. She had offered him dram and
asked him whether he would have 1t
then or wait till his work was done.
Indeed, men," he said, "there's been
sic a power o. sudden deaths lately
that I'll just TAX 1t now."-"Reminis-

CHOOSING A VOCATION.
Follow Common Sense and Conscience
and Do Your Best.

and Do Your Best.
1t is very certain that no man is At
for everything, but 1t is almost as GER
tain, too, that there is scarce any one
man who Is not fit for something,
which something nature plainly points
out to him by giving him tendency
and propensity to 1t.
I look upon common sense to be to
the mind what conscience Is to the
heart-the faithful and constant moni-
tor Of what is right or wrong. And |
am convinced that no man commits
either a crime or folly but against
the manifest and sensible representa-
tions Of the one or the other.
Every man finds in himself, either
from nature or education--for they are
hard to distinguish-a peculiar bent
and disposition to some particular
character, and his struggling against
It Is the fruitless and endless labor OF
Sisyphus. Let him follow and culti-
vate that vocation; he will succeed In
It and be considerable In one way at
least, whereas If he departs from 1t he
will at best be inconsderable, proba'
bly, ridiculous.-Lord Chesterfield.
