known as an expert in the culture of
fresh-water pearls. She is an example
of that type of ability that discerns the
business opportunity hat lies close at
hand.
From her early childhood Miss White
has been familiar with pearl fishing
The Clinch river flows among the
mountains of East Tennessee. For part
of the year it is a slow, dull stream.
full of shadows, in which the pearl
bearing mussels live. 1t is one of the
sports of the section for the boys and
men to go pearl fishing. Though some
highly valuable pearls have been taken
from the river, it has always been
viewed in the light of a pastime, prob
ably because the original finders sell
dom realize their worth, and it has
taken a young woman to put it upon a
business basis.
While making the journey home for
a college vacation Miss White saw in
"a jewelers. window at Knoxville a
beautiful solitaire pearl ring. Behind
it was a placard which read "Clinch
River Pearl. Three hundred dollars"
Miss White instantly discerned her OPP
portunity. She says hat all her subse-
quent work is merely an elaboration of
the plan hat came to her while she
stood gazing in through the window at
this jewel that had been taken out of
her home river,
But success depends not only on per-
ceiving ones chance, but on the grit to
develop it.
Miss White began in a small way
buying up the pearls found in her
neighborhood and disposing of these to
dealers. In order to do this she under
took a thorough study of the COM
mercial grading of pearls. Her stock
goes to wholesale dealers and to art
and craft studios where Jewels of this
type are used.
! 'alizing that the fishers methods
were wasteful both of time and of the
lives of the mussels, Miss White is
undertaking the care of certain beds
over which she has jurisdiction. Pearl
fishing cannot be pursued without des-
troying the mussels. AS they are rarely
found in the young mussel, the de-
pletion of the beds is prevented by
only those of medium or large
size.
Miss White is a type of modern
young woman who possesses among
her other charms the gift of en-
thusiasm and efficiency.

CHOOSING A PRESIDENT
EARLY METHODS THAT PAVED The
WAY TO NATIONAL CONVENTIONS.

History records that George Wash
ington was chosen president Of the
United States without first having
been nominated and even without an
opposing candidate. 90 was his sue
cessor in Office, John Adams. In the
language of the street the presidency
was III the case OF each OF these dis
tinguished patriots handed to him
on a silver platter" The presidency
went, as it were, by common consent
to the founders of the republic, to
whom a grateful people looked for
continued service and guidance.
In the early days president choos-
ing, according to the primitive way,
was as simple compared to modern
methods as a kindergarten exercise
beside a course in four dimension
mathematics. Since then the chang
es, though gradual, nave been mark
ed and have led up to our present
complicated convention nominations
that make the electoral college but
"a mechanical device for registering
the popular decision as between rival
party organizations. 1t was the
fluke that almost installed Aaron
Burr as president instead Of Thomas
Jefferson that forced the initial mod
if1cations OF the plan Of president
choosing agreed upon by the trainers
OF the constitution.
Originally members of the elector-
al college were to vote for two per
sons, the one receiving the highest
number of votes to be president and
the next highest to be vice president.
The danger Of succession that
would pull the political lever each
time from one side to the other made
imperative the change by which the
electors should vote for only one
person for president and for another
for vice president Two or three OBJ
feet lessons, too, OF irresponsible and
haphazard action by the electoral
college. throwing the choice OF pres
ident to the house or OF vice presi-
dent to the senate, because no one
had a majority OF the votes cast,
showed the necessity of centering
the efforts of the newly aligned pres
idential ticket and of imposing on the
members OF the electoral college a
moral obligation to cast their ballots
uniformly for the nominees for the
party which had elected them.
The forerunner Of our national
nominating convention was the eau
Gus or conference OF members OF con
gress of the same political faith who
got together on their own initiative
and without any mandate from their
constituents assumed to advise as to
who, in their judgment, was entitled
to be recognized as the party stand
ard bearer. This caucus must neces-
sarily have proved to be too crude
and unsatisfactory to serve long as
the president choosing machinery. In
such an assemblage only those states
and districts represented i'm congress
by members OF one and the same po-
ltical party had voice, and all the
others were left without representa-
ton. 1t was to- remedy these defects
and to enable the rank and file of
the parties, wherever they might be,
to exercise at least nominal control
OF the presidential nomination that
the national convention, meeting ev-
cry four years, came to be evolved,
as we know it.-Victor Rosewater in
American Review of Reviews.

The nnn,t-RnIfnrora

The new tangled churches that don't
believe things
Aren't the churches that satisfy me,
I'm firm in my notion that angels
wear wings
An heaven is place we shall see.
I'm an old fashioned man, full of old
fashioned ways,
An these up to date doubtings
seem odd;
What they don't believe folks talk
about nowadays,
But I'm still believing in God.
Some don't believe this, an some
don't believe thar,
Some don't believe heaven is a
place;
They don't believe sermons they're
preaching are fiat,
For of old fashioned faith there's
no trace.
What men don't believe doesn't inter-
est me,
I'd far rather learn what they do;
They've torn up the Bible an proved
it's not SO,
They doubt man was made from a
clod,
What they don't believe seems to be
all that they know,
But I'm still believing in God
There isn't much left of religions to-
day,
The thinkers have busily swept
Most of all the faiths that we once
had away,
An few of us know what they've
kept.
It's don't believe this" an it's
don't believe that"
An blinded they'd leave us to plod;
An old fashioned man hardly knows
where he's at,
But I'm still believing in God.
7 believe in the green OF the grass an
the tree,
believe in the sunshine an dew.
I believe in the love that makes liv-
ing worth while,
believe we shall rise from the sod
To mansion in heaven where our
dear ones shall smile,
And I'm believing in God.

NEW ELECTRIC RAILWAY.
viii Run Through Manchester and
Hampstead.

That a project on which John Pierce
Burns and Howard Tebbs, both promi-
nent local lawyers and business men,
have been working tor over two years
will be successfully consummated, 50
far as the necessary financing goes,
before the first of the year now ap-
pears assured.
At the last session of the Maryland
Legislature a charter was granted to
the gentlemen mentioned and associ-
ates to build and operate an electric
railway with Reisterstown as its
Southern terminal, where connection
would be made with the United Rail-
ways and Electric Company's tracks
to a northern terminal on the Penn
sylvania State line, miles from the
town Of Hanover, in that State.
Following the incorporation or the
company, which was named the Bal
timore and Pennsylvania Railway
Company, the work Of procuring
franchises from the Carroll county
authorities and the officials in con
troll of the several municipalities
through which the road was to run
was prosecuted vigorously and with
fair degree Of success. After this
rights OF way were secured over
practically all Of the 20-mile route
which the road was to traverse;
along which are the towns Of Man
chester and Hampstead, besides con-
siderble number OF prosperous vii
lagos.
There followed some little trouble in
financing the construction and equip
ping Of the road, which resulted in
considerable delay; this difficulty has
just been overcome; as the placing
on record yesterday in the clerks
oUce at Towson, OF lnortgase deed
OF trust from the Baltimore and
Pennsylvania Railway Company To
the Baltimore Trust Company, sub
Stimulates
The mortgage Is for 100000, and
there will be issued 1900 bonds of
the par value OF $500 each, which
will bear interest at the rate of 5
per cent, and constitute a first lien
on all the property OF the company.
These bonds will not be underwritten
or offered for sale to private inves-
tors, it is understood, the whole is
sue being taken by Philadelphia cap
italists as an investment This will
bring into the territory mentioned
investors who have never before been
interested there.
The 20 miles of road referred to il
to be known al the first section, and
eventually will be connected up with
Hanover, and will finally afford cleo
trio transportation service through to
Gettysburg.
Incidentally, and at the request of
the new financial interests which
have taken hold of the company the
old corporation Is In the process OF
reorganization, all Of the former di-
rectors having placed their resigna-
tons in the hands Of the new inter-
ests i'm the company, though 1t il ex-
pected that several Of them will be-
come directors of the new corpora
ton.
The actual construction work of the
line will be- done by the Maryland
Construction and Development Com
pany, of which Howard Tebbs Is the
head.
John Pierce Burns is to head the
railway company proper and has had
much to do with financing the propo-
sition.-BaItimore Sun"
