| planned to do wrong When they l have done SD one finds that they usually are moral perverts anyway and that the evil impulse in them was the strongest thing in their na- 1 lures.
 Few men who nave loDtid hanks or utaer financial institutions have de- | liherauely planned their rDbberies First there has come ths desire 70 D. s:;e ss-covetousness. An impIlse tD use a little of the banks money m order to increase his iuccme by spec ulation, overcomes the trusted man who has handled money for years without allowing a single penny to stick to his fingers. Then more helping until one day the world is startled by the report of another de- falcation.
 Another man becores a prodiSal through mistaken notion of gener- osity He gets a distorted idea of the one without having any notice of nle othcr and SD in time he comes to want snd beggary.
 And so all through society we find honest folk wearing masks of which they would be ashamed could they but behold themselves as others see them. The ambitious social leader because she envies the success of an other. does the reprehensible thing and continues to do it until some day the mask is ruthlessly ,torn away.
 The man in business looks longing Iy towards the success of a rival and he. too. does the reprehensible hing and keeps on repeating it until one day the mask is torn away and he. too. stands revealed in his true as pect.
 The veneer of falsehood lies so thicklv over people and their hab- it's that one sometimes wonders at the survival of truth and yet truth does live. for truth is immortal The other is pcrishabe. It must flee away the moment the first beam from the glowing presence of the Spirit of Truth touches 10.
 Only truth survives. Falsehood, death and all other evils must be gathered together and taken away just as we are told that in the end the earth will be gathered up and like d scroll rolled up and made to disappear from the sight of men. As the world grows older and better. sham begins to disappear and the universal masquerade draws nearer to its close.

Finances and Markets

New York. Jan. 20-The market opened irregular with lower ten dency. made some recovery. sold back again. relapsed into stagnation. and in the final operations recovered d large part of the loss and made a few substantial gains.
 Trade was palpably professional A majority of the standard issues gave a fairly good account of themselves. There was some baCkwardness in Steel. Union Pacific, Canadian Pacific and Northwestern. Steel preferred was an active issue with a smart advance on the day. Coal shares, Southern Pacific. St Paul. and the Hill issues were a feature in the strength of railroads. while metal stocks and gas and telephone issues held much of their gains of the early week
 The strength in Smelling and other copper stock was attended by cir cumstantial reports of a better de- mand for the metal. but these were accepted with some reservation in view of advices received by an inn partial authority which offer little en- couragement for the immediate out look in that industry.
 Bonds were steady; sales. s3.25t.- OOO United States bonds were un- changed.

Paul Morton.

The news of the sudden death of Paul Morton. president of the Equit- able Life Assurance society. comes as a shock to the numerous western friends and acquaintances of that notable man. He was sum young man. and was thought to be in the best of health.
 As a high officer of the Santa Fe Railway company he made occasional trips to and through Arizona, and made many friends in the territory. He had unbounded confidence in the future of Phoenix and the Salt River Valley and of the whole territory. in fact, and in many ways he demonstrated his friendship for Arizona Projects looking to railway extensions and the industrial development of the territory always had his hearty support His the navy in President Roosevelts cabinet and as president of the Equitable. was. therefore, followed with interest by many citizens of the territory. That he still retained his kindly interest in Phoenix was shown only a few months ago. Immediately following the destruction of the Adams hotel by fire. and when it was feared that serious difficulty would be encountered in finding all the money necessary for building in its place a strictly modern hotel. telegram was sent to MT. Morton by The Republican asking him to make to the hotel company. He replied by wire at length, and explained that on account of the outlay of many millions which the society had just made for the extinguishment of leases made by the former management, no new loans could be made for the time being; but if the hotel project could wait until about the first of the year. he felt sure the loan could be arranged He expressed his great confidence in the future of Phoenix. and stated in sin cere words his sympathy for our citi- zens in the loss and inconvenience which they must suffer through lack of a commodious hotel.
 In the death of MT. Morton the country has lost one of its foremost men. one of the cleanest men in the great business life of the nation. The insurance scandals of a few years ago threatened to bring the business of the whole country down with a crash. through the destruction of con- fidence in New York's financial lead CTS It was a fine tribute to Paul Nor tons record for integrity when his election as president of the Equitable was acclaimed everywhere as the best selection that could have been made It was he and Grover Cleveland who. by taking hold of the Equitable's affairs. restored the confidence of the country in that great company's sta bility.

THE MASQUERADE

''Is it not wonderful to see how few sins are done flatly. fairly. blankly as sins? Covetousness dresses itself in the decent robes of prudence: prodigality goes garbed as generosity: they all masquerade through society, and trap the souls of men. What if He came-the Spirit of Truth. and wiped out every false name and wrote up every true One?" asked Phillips Brooks
 True it is that few sins are ever deliberately committed. Most of them are the result of an impulse that pro- pels like the motor of d boat or ve- hicle. and when passion sits at the wheel any and all sorts of evils are likely to result. Few men who have sinned in any way have deliberately

st. Paul, June 28-Complaints are
being received by the state board of
health showing deplorable sanitary
conditions in connection with some
Minnesota rural schools. Employees
of the health board have made ex-
aminatiOns into the schools sanitary
conditions and they are convinced
that these conditions are inimical to
the health of the pupils and to the
residents of the districts.
The board received vigorous
complaint yesterday from man liv-
ing near the outbuildings of rural
school. He said that conditions were
unbearable and implored the board
to take immediate steps to have
them rectified. The board however,
is powerless to act. There is also
an absence of authority i'm the de-
partment of public instruction to
condemn or clean insanitary school
premises. At the last legislature a
bill was proposed authorizing the
board of health to inspect rural
schools. 1t was not passed.
There are laws providing for an
inspection into sanitary and other
conditions of the jails and hospitals,
but there is no law compelling local

st. Paul, June 2S.-Henry Parker,
assistant engineer at the old CAPT
toll, while removing an old picture
from the walls of the engine room
dropped it and nugget of pure
African gold rolled out upon the
floor.
The picture, which was an ancient
chrome, had been hanging on the
wall since the erection of the engine
room building twenty-eight years
ago. The nugget must have been
long tucked behind the joint of the
frame at the upper right hand cor
ner. 1t is worth SIG or SIT.
Parker notified Edward Koke, chief
engineer of the old capitol, and a
brother-in-law of Governor Eberhart,
of the find and turned the nugget
over to him. Mr.. Koke believes that
the nugget may have been stolen by
someone years ago and hastily push
ed behind the joint of the picture
frame in default of better place
of concealment.

President Lorenzo D. Harvey of
Stout institute, Menomonie, Wis, in
the first of series of lectures and
recitals before the Minnesota sum-
mer schools at Mankato normal, to-
day discussed the purpose of the
teachers work. He suggested only
disable knowledge should be taught,
that making a living must necessar-
lily engage the attention Of parents
and pupils, and that upon the foun-
dation of disable knowledge there
may later be built the culture which
is desired for leisure and pleasure.
But in addition to disable knowledge
the teacher must see that the pupil
procures ability to use the knowledge
he acquires. He showed how the
course of study is being modified
under the demands of an education
that shall hit for service, and that
the usefulness of knowledge is in no
way detrimental to it's culture value.
President Harvey is an able educa-
tor and his addresses to the teach
ers cannot but be helpful to them
in their work of instructing the
young.

Beverly, Mass, June 28.-While
the citizens of Beverly have given
UP all hope of breaking into the
Oyster Bay class, so far as publicity
is concerned, the summer capital of
the Taft regime is beginning to
brighten up Paramatta, the beautiful
home of Mrs. Henry w. Peabody on
Corning street, which is the summer
White House this year, has been
put into first class shape for it's dis
tinguished occupants.
The house has been thoroughly
renovated throughout, new decora-
tions installed in the interior and
an addition made in the way of a
new porte cuchere. A cottage across
the street has been engaged for the
executive officers and all business
will be transacted there.
The president will not lack for
sport to occupy whatever idle hours
he may have. The grounds in the
rear of the house are most spacious
and afford ample opportunity for
tennis and golf, the presidents ia:
vOrite games. A trout brook runs
through the estate, where, if he
wishes, Mr.. Taft may lure the finny
tribe. While the house is inland,
the president and his family have
the use of landing on the shore.
The presidents tastes, however, in
cline more to pastimes of the field
than those of the sea-.

Walter r. Mason, sentenced to

state penitentiary, seems to be rec

He is buoyed up by the thought that
there is one person in this wide,
wide world who loves him, and that
person is Miss Anna Cole, who con-
tinues to pay him visits at the Jail.
Miss Cole has, so it is said, init
mated to Mason that she will wait
until he has served his term and
once more he breathes the air of
freedom, Cupid will be the keeper
of their hearts and loves locksmith
will unite them in marriage.
Mason has limited to the Jail Off

Meanwhile Mason is cheerful.

Omsk, Siberia, June 2S.-Those
who conceive of Siberia as an arid
waste inhabited only by soldiers
and convicts and producing little
but salt would be startled at the
wealth of agricultural, horticultural,
industrial and mineral displays on
view at the opening today of the
first Western Siberian Exposition.
The object of the big show, on
which millions of dollars have been
expended, is to acquaint the world
with the actual situation of the
economic and industrial develop
ment of this part of the great white
cars dominions. A number of
American manufacturers have en-
gagged space in the exhibition build
ings, and all of the leading nations
of Europe are represented. The ,ex-
position will remain open to Au-
