strange town where Il Pagliacci' was

joke, to criticize the work unmerci-
fully. Next morning he found in the

Philippine Independence

From the National Monthly!
 While we point to the increase of ex- ports and imports since the removal of the Philippine tariff as an indication of pros pe.ity what efforts have been mst,c anG with what success to build up the pros perity and happiness of the Filipino peo- pie? Because the lands have not been rapidly taken up by the F'ilipinos, Gov ernor General Forbes now says that it is useless to wait. that it might take sew eral generations to develop the latent re sources of the islands without the assist ance of outside capital But the govern nent has merely published favorable laws and has taken no pains to acquaint the poorer classes with the opportunity to acquire lands. and has done nothing to encourage it's clients by supplying sur veyors and land agents to assure. the cor rect location of settlers. The only sue cessful result to which the Secretary of War oall point in his recent report, is lthe penal colony of lwahig. where thou sands of criminals carry on industrial and agricultural pursuits under anvadmnis- tratlon largely controlled by themselves T very str;kIng object lesson of what real Filipino independence might be.

To Courage Add a Bluff

From the New ork EVenlng World.
 New Workers are made up of fifty seven varities of courage and just a dash of bluff" This is Miss Septa Sorn's estimate of the men and women who so proudly sign New York after their names when I1traveIing' Miss Sorin, a southern so- ciety woman and author. often has vis- ited this city.
 You see," this young woman said my opinion of the people of this great little world of it's own has been formed from studies made for some time, and Whenever: l think of a New Yorker that Is a person who has come to the city to make livelihood and has won cut and made good--I can only picture creature of the most wonderful brav- cry in the world, for to merely exist, let alone work, in this place, one must have unlimited courage.
 Tn a great place like New York no sipshod work is permitted, and when one contempla tes the number of young men and women who come here to work every year without experience, with out talent with only a good will to do their best it is courage almost beyond my understanding. They are entering 2 fields of work and endeavor which are now nearly filled with experienced peo- pie; they are entering in the greatest competition imaginable, that of win ming bread in a big, overcrowded city, in which everyone is interestedNin him. self and little thought is given to the other person.
 But the dear New Workers are the funniest buffers in the world. They are not maliciously so, but in every business, in every home. in all plea : ures, there is just a little dash of bluff that adds to piquancy that you don't find in other people They do know a good deal in many ways, but they a!- ways want one to think that they know just a triffle more.
 "The bluff that always amuses me Is the love of the New Yorker for his United States. Come to the point what does he know about his United States Not thing except what he has read and heard. for a New Yorker won't travel over his own country; but the moment herhas the money he will sail for Europe, just as the man out West or in the smaller cities will come to New York when he can afford it.''

An Insect Menagerie

From the Kansas City Star.
 A menagerie of insects will soon be in stalled in the museum of natural history in Paris. Cages of glass, instead of steel, will be occupied by spiders, ants, bees, caterpillars and beetles, instead of lions, tigers, wolves and hyenas. Then it will be possible for the public to study the lives of ants underground and of bees in their hives. The idea is due to J. H. Fabre, an old and celebrated French en- tomologst. who keeps privately a similar insectarium.
 We hope to do on large scale what M. Fabre has done in miniature, and re- veal new world to the public" said the director of the museum to the corre- spondent of the Daily News. Tt will be of inestimable benefit to students and also to artists, decorators and modistes seek ing original forms and colors, as they can copy the living insects. Our collection will prepare students for examination of the higher vetebrae and will er1able chem ists to search for the acids and poisons secreted by unknown members of the inn nense family of insects. The biologist will also be enabled to follow every pro cess of insect metamorphoss. Why, there is an entire world to discover and reveal by means of the insect menagerie."

 In these 50 years we have grown to hs the wealthiest and most powerful nation

How To Win in Wall Street

There are a good many false starts in Wall street and those that get in the race after sucb start tfind that they are left. Experience teaches them the lesson of patience. As I have often said, the pa tient man is the winner in Wall street. Hartman was patient when he bought Union Pacific at from $l5 to s20 share. Nobody thought the common stock was anything but a speculation, but Hartman lived. to see it pay 10 per cent dividends anc sell at S204 a share. The late Russell Sage, one of the most cautious and sue cossful operators Wall street has ever known. told me he never sold anything a a loss. He said this at time when Northern Pacific, which he had bought for a song, was suddenly developing strength and approaching the era of div idends which ultimately crowned that en- terprise. I know another very wealthy and eminent specuator. one of the richest on Wall street. who never sells anything excepting at a profit That is his reputa- tion, and he is not ashamed of it.

Two Famous Kentuckians
m the Chicago Inter Ocean.

l from the lnlcago Inter ocean. Morgan, the raider along about 1863 | swooped down upon the federaI garrison I at Hartsville Tenn. Morgan had only II bout 12C0 men, while the Union forces II numbered about POGO. Still, Morgan usual Ny knew what he was about-result: Sev-

 Among the rear guard was Private Llir-
 lton of the Third Kentucky cavalry. He
 Twas the last man to recfoss tre river and
 Ijust ahead of him was the last Confed- derate wagon, loaded with federal mus Vkets, and other captured articles. A In the meantime the sound of Morgan s ! guns had disturbed the sslumbers of an riother Kentuckian. This one was q Union isodier Harlan by name, and he was Alcoonel of the Tenth Kentucky Infantry Hat Castalian Springs.55 miles from Harts- lville. He immediately started with his |lregiment to the relief of the garrison at 8Iartsvils. ii1E ilyi NflU | Harlan and his regiment reached the Ntop of Stuff back from the river just as 0Lurton and the last wagon of the Con- 'jfederates was in the middle of the Cum 'lberland.

The man who undertakes the ignorant and excitable into feelings of hostility to them is the most danger ous foe of his country and should be ex- patriated-he and nis yellow rake with him.
 Our people should study the new forces of their new times and the men who are moving forward with them. If our courts could be assembled before them, if they could look into the faces of our railway presidents, from the Boston and Maine on the east to the Southern Pacific on the west; if they could see the men at the head of the great industrial corporations and the banks of the country, they would turn back to their own callings and say: To the jungle whence they came with the nluckrakers, l believe in the men who are building our country.
