Dlsauisition on Luck.

There is no doubt that what men
call bad luck is often the result Of
bad conduct" said Capt. Charles r.
Tully Of Abilene, Kan, at the New
Howard Men suffer for violations
Of the moral law, but, instead Of
mending their ways, they rail at their
I'll fortune.
aside from this, however, I am
positive that some few of the human
race are favorites of fortune. One
Of the most prosperous men Of my &C
Quaintance won $4,000 in a lottery,
and it was the foundation OF big
fortune made In the mercantile bust
ness. After that one big coup he
never bought another lottery ticket.
Years ago was in the cattle rails
Ing business, and the owner of big
ranch that adjoined mine, a capital
fellow of the name of O'Brien, was, l
think, the recipient of luck that was
simply marvellous. Many a time when
the whole surrounding country would
be bllstered and scorched by long
continued drought showers would fall
in O'Brien's pasture, filing the water
holes and reviVing the range, but not
drop would descend on mine. The
truth is that I have seen it raining
on his ranch while praying with anx-
fous heart for the moisture to reach
me, only to note that when the line
of my pasture fence was reached the
downpour would cease"

COST OF LIVING is TARGET
Arbor Day Annual Shows How to
Cut Expenses by Observance
of Conservation Rules.

Madison.-How Arbor and Bird
day and Fire Prevention day may
help reduce the high cost of living
is the lesson sought TO be brought
home TO Wisconsin school children
and others in the Arbor day annual
issued by the department of public
instruction The annual is for the
first time Joined with the fire pre-
vention cause
If we knew the amount savable
annually by a wise forestry policy in
reducing the cost Of wood as a raw
material in manufacturing indus
tries, says the editor, o. S. Rice,
in lessening the cost of water pow
er, and in lowering transportation
charges on bulky commodities; if we
knew the amount of annual loss to
agriculture by insect pests which viii
be prevented by protection of bird
life; and if we then were able to
add to these amounts the 100000
GEO of preventable fire loss, We
should have a total annual saving of
certainly not less than S1,00O,000,-
600 and possibly several times that
amount.
If this saving were equitably dis
tributed, there would be substan-
tial reduction in the cost of living
for all

MEXICAN REBELS
EXECUTE AMERICAN
Captain Fountain of Federal
Army Put to Death.
TRIED BY COURT MARTIAL
Slain Because He Removed and Sc
GREETED Part of Gun When Gen.
Villa Was Forced TO
Retreat.

Ell Paso. Tex. - Thomas FOun-
tain Of Las Cruces, n. NJ, captain
Of a federal gun under Gen. Pancho
Villa, was executed by Mexican rebels,
according to the news brought here
by an American newspaper man who
has Just returned from Parral, Next
co, with 184 American and other for
eign refugees
When Villa retreated last Thursday
night Fountain removed parts OF the
piece and concealed himself in pri-
vate residence. The occupants were
ignorant that they had guest in a
part Of the house seldom visited.
The American was driven by thirst
and hunger to reveal his presence
Sunday, after z hours OF sefimposed
torture. He was armed with a revolt
yer, but made no resistance. Monday
he was compelled to show the rebels
where he had secreted the missing
parts Of his rapid-fre gun, was tried
by court-martial and condemned to
death, apparently for having disabled
the gun.
American residents made every ef.
fort to get a modification Of the SEN
tence, but without avail American
Consul Letcher at Chihuahua sent TO
General Salazar what is believed to
have been an appeal from Washington
that his life be spared.
In Mexico they have recourse to
what is known as the law OF flight,
under which a prisoner who has been
condemned but where there exists a
doubt as to the legality of the SEN
tence, is allowed his freedom within
certain limits. The prisoner knows
that his fate is sealed. Even If he does
not walk a step, from some unexpect-
ed quarter the fatal bullet will come,
and the report will be made that he
was shot while in flight"
1t was thus in Fountains case He
told the correspondent that there was
no hope, but stroIled about the streets
awaiting death. When his body was
brought in it contained four bullet
wounds, made by shots fred from be
hind.
Fountain was a son of Col. Albert
Fountain, a noted lawyer of New Mex
leo. who was mysteriously murdered
many years ago.

SCORES UNIVERSITY POLICY
Supt. Cary Makes Another Attack,
Declaring That Post Graduate
Work Is Magnifled.

Madison. 1T Universities generally
and the University of Wisconsin in
particular, are severely criticised in
a statement by State Supt of Schools
G. P. Cary, for alleged failure to give
proper attention to the students in
the regular college courses.
Cur own state university" says
Mr.. Cary, is more fully committed
to the theory of looking after the
interests of the one in ten or fifteen
who already have college diplomas
than is any other state institution
with which am acquainted Univer-
stiles generally unduly magnify the
importance of post graduate study
and. research work.
The curse of American educa-
tion," he continues, "is the Phi. D.,
which may be secured by a student
only by remaining at university
three years beyond the regular four
years course. These graduates are
being called Specialists But the
world is not eager for their services.
As the president of a great univer-
sity remarked a few years ago, you
can get such men by the carload for
$1,000 a year.

All his listeners began to protest
violently
Hold on" he said. 81 don't mean
that kind I mean the machines"
There was chorus Of "Ohs" Of relief.
and he went on Now, If you viii
look over all the makes Of writing ma
chimes you viii see that beauty has
been invariably sacrificed for utility,
or the exigencies of machinery. Other
machines are not entirely lacking in
lines Of beauty, but the typewriter.
which is one Of the most intellectual Of
machines, as l might say, seeing that
only educated people use it, Is home
Her than any girl that ever pounded
1t.
Several years ago one was put on
the market which did have some lines
Of beauty, but it has dropped out Of
sight, from which I conclude that
beauty in typewriters is not popular
Whether one could be made which
would be both useful and ornamental
I don't know, but I do know that no
manufacturer is turning out that kind
now. There Is no pretty typewriter,
but some are less homeIy than others,
which counts for a little to the good,
maybe"

RECEIVER FOR BIG CONCERN
Romadka Trunk Company, Mi.wau-
kee, Tied Up by Creditors Fac
tory and Stores Closed.

waukee leather goods manufacturing
concern with a factory and two re-
tail stores in Milwaukee and ore re
tail store in Cleveland, o.
According to the attorneys for the
creditors, liabilities of concern are
approximately 100000, while the
involuntary bankruptcy petition filed

chiefly of manufactured goods and
raw materials.
The order signed by Judge Geiger
closes the plant and retail stores i'm
mediately, and they will not be per-
mitted to operate except upon spe-
ciaI application of the receiver.
