CARNIVAL SEASON BEGINS
German Singing Societies Plan
Many Novel Entertainments.

The carnival season begins to-day among
the German societies Of Brooklyn. The
celebration Is not only a survival Of the
customs Of the "Vaterand." but Is also a
survival of customs that sprang up in the
Middle Ages. Carnival IN its original
meaning has no significance for most
Americans. With the German Americans
it means much. and the significance Is in
the original sense. The word comes from
the Latin, meaning farewell 10 flesh"
Noted among the cities which give en-
thusiastic "farewels' 10 pleasure are Co
logre. Main7 and Munich. At Cologne es-
peciaIly the festivities attract wide in
terest For three DAYS before Ash Wednes-
day man and beast appear only in mas
auerade Thousands OF visitors are on
hand TO enjoy the spectacles and partici-
pate in the merrymaking. on Rose Mon
day. particularly, the people enjoy them
selves That is the day Of the carnival
parade. during which roses fly about as
promiscuously as confetti at Coney Island
I'm its so-called "Mardi Gras" celebration.
At Cologne merrymaking ceases with
Shrove Tuesday, and on Ash Wednesday
the people flock 10 the Cathedral, where
the priests decorate their foreheads with
crosses OF deLeSs lIbubull'lllS III ~ A'Ai'5
the words: Ashes to ashes
II IS with memories OF this sort that the
Germans go about the preparation OF their
carnivals Each Of the big singing socie-
ties has its "Kleiner Rath," or fools coun-
eli, to make arrangements. The great day
of the carnival is known among the Ger
mans as "Narren Sitzung,' or fools meet
ing The affairs are held at the headquar-
ters of the singing organizations, and the
societies vie with one another IN choosing
original and amusing subjects. The halls
Of the organizations are appropriately
decorated, and each guest receives fools
cap as he enters. Presiding is the carnival
president. The rostrum, or huett Is al
ways unique From the buett the speakers
make their humorous addresses. Between
speeches the crowds sing comic songs.
The subject chosen by the Arion Society
for its carnival this evening is The Apos-
tie Of Water" To a German the tenn
perance movement is about as funny as
anything that could we'll be imagined. The
buett of the Arions will be water wagon,
and from it the speakers will give their
views of the use that should be made Of
water and the folly Of substituting it for
beverages much dearer to the TeutoniC
heart.
The other societies will celebrate their
carnivals next Sunday. The Brooklyn
Saengerbund will have Day at Belmont
Park with the Aviators' and will listen
to speeches delivered from representa-
ton Of the Statue of Liberty. The Schwa-
blscher Sangerbund will take "Trip on
a Swabian Railroad" It's buett will be
car. The Williamsburg Sangerbund has
chosen German Unity" as It's topic, and
its buett will be a fortress, guarded by a
Prussian and g. Bavarian soldier. In a
couple OF weeks the Germans Will conclude
taking leave Of the pleasures of the flesh
with a series Of masquerade balls.

MR. FARRELL's POLICIES.

AIr Farrell has declared himself I'm favor
OF two Industrial policies-giving the work
ingman an interest in the company that
employs him by some form Of cooperative
ownership. and solving the problem OF un-
stable prices and markets by conciliation
and compromise between steel producers.
In a recent interview he said.
"The problem Of how 10 dispose Of our
products without denoralizing the markets
Of our competitors will. I believe, pracu-
cally be solved by a policy OF concillatlon
and consideration. II has often been said
that steel IS either a prince or a paupcr.
Under conditions Of extreme competition
the latter is inevitable, but experience has
proved that with cooperation as the guild

He went 10 his complaint files and he
talked with men who had had experience
In tropical climates, and he found that this
lot would be especially liable 10 rust from
the dampness Of the Central American eli

The wire which he would ordinarily make
IN accordance with the specifications given

eraoly better able to stand rust. There

lie suggested the change 10 the manager
OF the mill. and called upon the Central
American engineer. who was greatly
pleased. 1t was a small Job. but 1t showed
tie officers of the company what sort Of
superintendent they had. So when a new
wire company with a large capital and an
enormous plant was organized as the Pitts
burg Wire Company. Farrell was the man
chosen for its secretary and general man
aEer. His advice as to the very location
Of the plant showed that he knew his busl-
ness as few men know theirs He urged
strongly against building in Pittsburg.
It's bad thing for work.ngmen 20 live
in big city" he said They can't bring
up their children properly and they can't
enjoy their leisure. The best types OF
vCrkmen stay out Of the city for that very
reason. Go to a small town The land is
cheaper and it's worth the difference in
delays Of freight"
So the new company built its plant at
Braddock. a town Of 1900 people. some
ten miles from Pittsburg. The mills were
started early in 1892. Again Farrell was set
to tasks Of a new sort. and again he de-
veloped a new set Of capabilities TO meet
them. His mastery Of tools and his mas
terry Of workmen still stood him in good
stead. but only part OF his responsibility
lay inside the mill. He had 10 buy and sell,
70 study markets, to concilate cranky GUS
toners, 10 study economy in big and little
things. He had to deal now not only with
pliahle metal and with piable men, over
whom he had definite authority but also
with men over whom he had no authority
at all. II was a different sort Of work,
but his success vas even more brilliant here
than il had been before
