Greatest fools.

A great many men, particularly
young men. believe that the quick
est. surest road to wealth is found
in trickery and dishonest dealing:
in stealing by one means or an
other. OF course. nothing could
be further from the truth. If
further proof were needed than
the number of honest and remark
ably successful men, it can be
found on the other side of the
ledger: in the careers of other men
who have tried dishonest methods.
The accounts OF suicides. not very
cheerful reading in themselves,
still contain a strong argument for
decency and honesty. Have you

Weight win Again Be Wanted.

Hardly has the recent complaint
of excessive weight died away in
the cattle market than buyers are
criticising lack of quality. Weigh
ty bullocks are still present in
market circles, but they are mere

made during the fall and early
winter, and their proportion in
the run will soon be meager.

cattle are entitled to a premium,

strong weight and high cost last
summer will not soon he effaced.
The obvious policy of the finish

WANING EVIL.
DanyiIIe Advocate Discusses The
Damage Suit Practice in Ken
lucky and Declares it is In
juring the State.

The Daily Advocate at Danville,
Kentucky, for a number Of years
has been making a strenuous fight
against the bringing Of what is
termed ''snide" damage suits
against railway companies. In
Circuit Court in Danville last week.
Judge l.. l.. Walker threw out
on peremptory instructions the
case Of Shorty Jones against the
Queen and Crescent Route. In
the first place Brady Harlan con-
tracted with the railway company
to carry a car load Of cross ties
from one point 70 another in the
Danville wards. Harlan then
hired Jones 70 assist in the work.
o. the first trip, Jones let tie
fall and mash his great toe.
Forthwith. through his attorneys,
he sued the railway company for
$1,000 damages. Judge Walker
promptly threw this as we'll as
other similar cases cut Of court.
In referring 70 this particular
case, the Advocate seys editorially
in a current issue:
The legislature ought to pass
law prohibiting the filing Of such
damage suits as this one. The
+eayy burdens occasioned by
court costs must be paid by the
payers and taxes are already
too high. This promiscuous dam
age suit practice is one Of the
paramount causes for Kentucky
lack of growth, as shown by the
last census. In the first place
such methods prevent capital from
coming into the State and on th'
other hand the enormous jury am
court costs make high taxes. IL

where the railway company IS FIRE

companies have fixed policy q

that have little or no merit al

CALDWELL TO MEXICO.
Topeka Veteran General Will Make
Home With Son.

Kansas City, June 12.-One of the
three surviving major generals of the
civil war left Kansas City for Mexico
last night. He is General ]. c. Cald-
wen of Topeka. who was at the
Coateshouse yesterday with his son,
aHrry G. Caldwells general agent for
Mexico of the Missouri, Kansas &
Texas railroad. In his room yester-
day afternoon the aged soldier told,
with emotion that welled up again
and again, the homely circumstances
that We're taking him to- the south. His
wife of fifty-four years died last Mon
da yin Topeka, and he will spend the
remaining years of his life between
the homes of his son in Mexico and
his daughter in Calais, Me. He eX

Caldwell served with distinction
through the war, commanding a di-
vision at Gettysburg and temporarily
an eltlre army corps, when his COM
mand caught part of the weight Of
Pickett's famous charge. as it held
Round Top. Following the war; in
1867, he was appointed consul to VAL
paraiso, Chile, where he served until
1870, when he was appointed minister
to Uruguay and Paraguay, with resi-
dence at Montevideo, Uruguay. He
served there IL years, retiring in 1882.
From then until 1897, General CaId-
well was president of the Kansas state
board of pardons at Topeka. In 1897
he was sent to San Jose, Costa Rica,
as consul general. He retired finally
to private life in 1907, shortly after
the great earthquake which laid low
whole villages in Costa Rica, RACED the
Carnegie peace temple, which never
has been rebuilt.

days when he was state and nation

general officers who acted as guard
of honor. All of the others are dead,
and when the keen memory of the old
man who talked yesterday is gone
there will be no man living who rode
on that famous trai nfrom Washington
to Springfield.
General Caldwell knew Lincoln in
and Meade and Hancock and McClel-
Ian. Incident and anecdote he relates
of each, characterizing them with a
word or a phrase that illumines them
to the mind of the casual observer of
the present. There is no man living
today who knew the public men Of his
time as has General Caldwell. Sena-

campaigned with Roscoe Conkling
and stumped the country for Blaine.
Amongst the toher old fighters he
mentioned yesterday was Admiral
Farragut.
IAN old-fashioned hero was he"
the general said. "a charming man,
g prince of seamen, yet with an in
domable faith in the force of brute
human strength. He believed in his
wooden ship, the Hartford. and to the
day of his death believed he could
take that ship and do mighty battle
with any ironc1ad. Were he alive to-
day he would sail into fight with

FIVE MINUTE SPEECHES.
Congressman Madison Makes Himself
Unpopular in Congress.

Washington, June 12.-RepresentatiVe
Madison of Kansas, who made the first
move one day last week to do away
with the time killing speeches in the
house and was stepped on for his pains,
does not intend to let his failure dis
courage him. In fact, he would have
been surprised had his suggestion met
with favor. The only way to bring
about a reform Of that kind is to keep
hammering at it, the Seventh district
man says, and that is what he purposes
TO do.
Mr.. Madison objected to set speeches
in the wool bill because, he said, no
body listened to them and hence they.
did no good. He would have the Ce-a
late carried on under what is known
as the 5-minute rule. Among the first
TO object to the Kansan's suggestion
to curtaiI the speeches delivered for
local effect was southern member
who got the floor day or two later ana
spoke two hours. There were just 10
members on the floor while he talked.
Yet that members speech will be print
ed in the records and probably will go
TO thousands of his constituents Cat the
expense of the public and it will be
plentifully interested with (applause)
Qaughter) and prolonged applause).
Under the 6-minute rule bill is read
section by section or paragraph by par
agraph. AS each section is read o.
portunity is given to amend it. If an
amendment is offered the member Of
fering it is given five minutes to dis
cuss his amendment. If he asks more
time it is given him, and the same
privilege IS accorded any other mem
Der.
AS votes are being taken at all times
under this rule there always is a large
attendance, and the discussion is heard
and participated in by many. This kind
of debate is dreaded by members who
are trying to slip ''jokers'' into tariff
bill. And herein lies one reason for
the unlimited time usually given for the
general debate. After three or four
weeks of set speeches the house usually
is so weary of the subject in hand that
it is glad to adopt a rule limiting de-
bate. Then only a few sections of the
bill are read and the rest is Jumped
and passed without the members hav-
ing had any real discussion of the
1neaS nre.

ISOLATION, gave out the following state
ment today before leaving for his home
in Milwaukee, Wis:
THE most important work the
new officers of the association will pur-
sue is an effort to. secure a service
promotion, such as is now in vogue
among postoffice clerks and letter car
riers. By this change the men will be
advanced according to length of SER
vice and work done until the maximum
salary is paid. In addition to this, eff
forts will be made to increase. the
travelling expense allowance and to Sc
cure federal appropriations by con-
gress to pay the allowances
'As to the affiliation of the Railway
Mail Clerks association with the Amer
lean Federation of Labor, the conven-
ton declared that the railway clerks
have no hostility towards organized la
Dor, but that at present we can gain
nothing by affiliation with such organ

SCATTER BODY IN STREETS.
Students Prank Believed to Have
Caused Grewsome Find

Washington, June I'm conse-
quence of the finding of parts of hu-
man bodies in the streets. Corporation
Counsel E. H. Thomas has instituted
an investigation for the purpose of de-
termining who is responsible.
Suspicion points strongly to medi-
cal students, as heart found in a
back alley and leg in a sewer trap
showed trace of having been dismem-
bered by skilled hand.
DIR. G. w. Kober, dean of the med
icaI department of Georgetown uni
versity, and DIR. Cline Borden, who
holds similar position in the medi-
cal department of George Washing
ton university, as we'll as the officers
of local hospitals, will cooperate with
Corporation Counsel Thomas.
The authorities believe those who
left the portions of the bodies where
they were found had some impression
that they were playing jokes.
