MlLLIoNAIREs OF FUTURE.

Andrew Carnegie remarked the other
day that there would be fewer oppor-
tuuities for making milionaires over
night I'm the future than there were i'm
the old unregenerate, unreformed. un-
regulated days lie probably knew
whereof he spoke. This particular
millionaire must have had in mind GER
tain episodes in which he himself fig
ured. He also no doubt knew of how
some OF his friends blossomed into
multi millionaires as a result of n few
conferences and subsequent deals"
The public have learned since then
how one millionaire, now deceased. re-
ceived huge fortune, Such revela-
tions are, IL is true, not calculated TO
hasten the establishment of confiden-
tial relations between the average cit
izen and the banking fraternity un-
less II be clearly pointed out that such
episodes are not nearly so feasible to-
day as they were when each capitalist
looked upon the corporation which he
controlled asshis own personal appan-
age. We have Travelled n long way
since then. Even those who made the
bulk of their fortunes by maneuvers
which would not be tolerated at this
time Of day are not now proud Of theil
achievement. More than one multi.

not been savory would be willing {,

SUGAR TRUST" METHODS.

According 10 Claus Augustus Spreck
les. the methods OF the sugar trust
in its attempts 10 eliminate competi-
ton were neither wholesome nor hon
est. In other words. they were Grimm
al. and viciously criminal Dead rats
were placed in barrels Of sugar, and
sugar liquor was siphoned at night
into wastepipes.
Spreckles testified that he discharged
the men whom he held responsible for
those orenses in his refinery ut Yon-
kers. n. Y. hoping that they would
sue for the wages that were due. but
they never sued. Machinery was my
steriousIy crippled i'm the Phihdel-
phia refinery. but all trouble of that
kind ceased as soon as the refinery
passed into the hands Of the trust.
Spreckles hasn't any doubt that there
is a combination of the sugar inter-
ests, and he hasn't any doubt that
il the tax should be taken off sugar
it would mean at least $150.OOOOOO a
year to the consumer. lie has had an
intimate acquaintance with sugar trus
methods for twenty years, and his
testimony before the House investi-
eating committee should be Of gen
uine assistance 10 the committee.
The sugar trust has had a strong
grip on the machinery of tariff legis-
lation. The indications point to a
new deal in the interest Of the people.

Singular. Isn't L, the Way Nature
Preserves the Equilibrium

Singular, Isn't Z. the Way Nature
Preserves the Equilibrium
One of the most subtle and interest
ing problems of life. according to the
eminent statisticlan and student of
heredity, Professor Il. j. Ewart. is the
numerical relationship OF sex and its
influence upon the body polite. The
woman's rights movement Is In essence
a mathenatiCsila and statistical problem
according TO him. There is not Il gen
eral advance of woman. ns some sociol
ogists assert. There is n sudden mani
festation of her power, period of SUI
premacy aud then decline of her
status.
The explanation Is statistical mainly.
True. II has always been something OF
n puzzle why the proportion or each
kind. apparently with little or no un.
DERIVING reason, IL produced In the
right numbers. The argument that II
such were not the case the particular
species would not survive does not re.
veal TO us the methods by which this
object has been achieved. That some
mechanism must exist by means OF
which within certain limits the number
OF males and females born is regulated
Is proved by the facts of history.
where we have numerous examples OF
wars and other social upheavals where
males have largely suffered. and yet
within an apparently short period Of
time, as measured by such events, u
balance has again been established.
The sex equilibrium may be com.
pared to that of Il gyroscope. where the
greater the disturbance of position
the greater is the force tending to re-
establish its natural stand while In
motion.-Current Literature.

All hearts go out in sympathy to Il. K.
Hsmor and family in the great sorrow
which has visited them. After several
months of throat trouble, which caused
tuberculosis, their daughter, Mrs. Charles
c. Strout, died Feb. 2, at the home Of her
sister in Standish. Being in poor health
Mrs. Strout came home to her parents last
May, and since that time everything has
been done to restore her to health that
skilled specialists could do. As a last re-
sort she went to the Maine general hos
pital After a careful examination, they
decided an operation on her throat impos-
sible, and she left the hospital, going to
her sisters, thinking the change might
give her strength to reach home, but she
gradually failed. She bore her suffering
with wonderful patience and courage,
keeping cheerful heart though praying
for quick release. Her mind was clear to
the last. She was a member OF the Epis-
copal church in Ipswich, Mass, and
wished to be buried from the Church OF
Our Father at Hull's Cove. Rev. Samuel
lobe spoke words of comfort to the sor-
rowing parents and friends. The beauti-
full flowers brought messages OF love. The
interment was at Hillside cemetery.
