fields of West Virginia; the cotton
mill districts of the south and north;
at the navy yards and army and
marine barracks.
The railroads have given buildings,
building funds and maintenance funds,
to associations in all of their lardge
cities. There are over PA railroad
mems associations. with a member
ship of $4,000. Special rooms are pro-
vided for the association in many
large railroad stations; and new
buildings are put up where other pro
vision is not at hand.
The whole history of the develop
ment OF the association which has
grown to such proportions and i'm
portance goes back to George VIII
liams. the 3raper's clerk. who con-
ceived the idea of Thu organization in
his upstairs room in the dry goods
store. The Y. NJ. c. A. was started
purely from religious motives. Much
of its prosperity has undoubtedly
been due to the fact that II came
from within the heart of one young
man, less than "a years old; 1t was
not a reaGy-made movement, offered
to such young men as cared to &c,
cept it.
Williams was a Christian OF the
Martin Luther character. He went
to London at twenty. fell into the
Company Of 40 young clerks in the
dry goods establishment of Hitchcock
& Rogers. and in three years had
practically converted the establish
ment. fro the head of the firm down.
By 1S43 he had organized a mission.
airy society and a young mems So
ciety within the store. In those days
the clerks of n Diapers store lived In
dormitories provided for them. His
work was so phenomenal that IL at.
tracted general notice throughout
London. and 1t was for the purpose OF
spreading the movement among the
clerks Of other like establishments
that the Diapers Evangelical associa.
ton, shortly after named the Young
Mems Christian association. was or.
gained by Williams and some earn,
est friends.
1t was not until 1891 that the move.
ment spread outside London. vii.
liams himself carried IL to Paris, on q
business trip. A commercial traveller
took the idea from Paris to Holland:
a clerk from one of the London stores
started society in Adelaide, Aus.
tralia. and associations sprung up
shortly afterward in Boston. Mon.
treal, Calcutta and other cities of the
world.
Today the Y. NJ. c. A. Is furnishing
education for thousands of men. II
keeps IA secretaries at work In
American and European ports to take
care Of immigrants and emigrants; Il
has immigrant secretaries in four as.
sociations in the United States. In
Osaka. Japan. the night classes have
745 students; in st. Peters burg there
are nearly 1000 students.
1t operates employme nt bureaus
through which over $4,000 men In the
United States and Canada secured
positions in the last year. It provides
lists of boarding places and hotels;
furnishes a home to which wanderina
young men are always welcome. and
adorns its walls with legends like:
Write Home to Mother" which heir

track.

EXTREME COLOR SCHEME.

who wish to have dogs to complete
"the color scheme" of their gowns,
OF wish to appear to own valuable
dogs and yet not have the bother of
caring for them. A dog lover could
never find words to express his con-
tempt for these freakish women, for,
while he may pardon them for cod
ding lapdogs on the ground that
they may really be fond of them
for these dogs have more intelligence
than is generally attributed to them
he can never excuse the women
for carrying a dog with them for

MAKING SCIENCE FIT ART
Critical Letter Of a Mathematician
Tersely Contrasts the Scientific
and Literary Temperaments.

Thomas Nelson Page, in the smo-
king room of the Baltic, contrasted
the literary and scientific tempera-
ments.
"But a letter will best bring out
my point" said the famous author.
"You'ye heard, of course, of Tenny-
sons poem, THE Vision of Sim
Well, an eminent mathematician
wrote to Tennyson, on the appear
ance Of this poem, a letter that ran
like this:
"Dear Sir find in a recent
poem Of yours, entitled ''The Vision
of SIM" the following unwarranted
statement 'Every moment dies a
man, and every moment one is
born" l need hardly point out that
this calculation, if correct, would
tend to keep the sum total Of the
worlds population in a state Of per-
petual equipoise, whereas it is an es-
tablished fact that the said popula-
ton is constantly on the increase.
| would therefore suggest that in
the next edition Of this poem the er.
roneous calculation to which l re-
fer shou'! be corrected as follows:
"Every moment dies a man, and
one and a sixteenth is born" l may
add that the exact figures are 1.167,
but something must of course be
conceded to the laws Of rhythm"

GOULD MAY QUIT
Negotiations for Community of
Pacific Road Interests.
From the Sun.


From the Sun.
Important plans are under con-
sideration for changes in the
management Of the Western
Gould roads, Missouri Pacific,
Denver and Rio Grande and
Western Pacific. In the course
of the development of these plans
it is expected that George j.
Gould Will resign as president
of the Missouri Pacific, a po-
sition which he has held since the
death Of his father, Jay Gould.
Mr.. Gould's retirement, in
case it comes, will be entirely
voluntary. He and his relatives
and associates have a controlling
influence in Missouri Pacific, and
since Missouri Pacific controls
Denver and Rio Grande, which in
turn controls Western Pacific,
the plans for Improvement in the
workings Of the system cannot
he carried out without his con
sent. He has given serious con
sideration to retirement from the
presidency for some time. AT
times in the past also he has ex-
pressed a desire to be relieved
of the work Of the office, but it
is known that latterly he has
come nearer to a definite decis-
ion than ever before.

road over the construction of
which Mr.. Gould broke with Mr..
Hartman. The road was opened
for business last August and
