WITH A KNIFE
FORMER RESIDENT OF PENSA-

FOR THE PAST SIX YEARS.

Prof. Chas. O. MeuX, a former res
ident Of Pensacola, where he was well
and favorably known, ended his life
in Mobile Sunday afternoon by stab
bling himself with a small pocket knife.
The deceased resided in Pensacola for
a number of years conducting Meux's

Death:
Charles O. Meux, aged so years
proprietor of the Mobile Business Col
lege, and for forty years one of the
most widely known commercial edu-
Gators in the south, ended his life
Sunday shortly after noon, in his
office 216 IL Dauphin street, by stab
hing himself in the heart with small
pearl handled pocketknife. The dead
body was found lying in Professor
Meux's office chair, by Mrs. MeuX
who had come down to see why he
had not gone to the train to meet
Miss Ethel Davis. of Escattawpan a
prospective student in the Mobile
business College.
Professor MeuX was to have met
Miss Davis at the train and escorted
her to his home. When the young
lady saw nothing of him on arriving,
she telephoned Mrs. MeuX and noti-
fed her. Mrs. Meux then came down
to see if her husband was still at the
office, where she was horror stricken
to find his lifeless body.

deed was given by Professor Meux,
and no message was left to tell why
he had killed himself. Dependency,
due to failing health and business
worries, is believed to have been re-
sponsible for the suicide. Investiga-
ton by the police led to no other the
DRY than that of self destruction.
Professor Meux had been proprie-
tor of the Mobile Business College for
the past several years, and had been
in Mobile, engaged in the same bust
ness, about fifteen years previously.
He came to Mobile from Montgomery,
where he had a business college many
years ago, and had also lived in Pen
sacola for a considerable length of
time. He had been identified with
the commercial branches of education
for nearly half a century, and was
well known in many cities of the
south.
He is survived by his widow. Mrs.
Bessie MeuX, who is principal of the
shorthand department in the business
college; one daughter, Mercedes. aged
L., and other relatives in Mobile and
other cities"

is evident that the board has been of
no value to congress whatever.
The board, however, has served a
good purpose. 1t has been worth the
half million dollars it has spent with
out benefitting congress, because it
has served a better purpose, and one
which may result in the enrichment of
the treasury and the saving of millions
of dollars to the people of this country.
The tariff board is composed of friends
of the president and they have, after
celebrating for several months even if
they have not gained any facts they
did not know before, said positively
that the protective tariff fostered by
the Republican party has robbed the
people of this country of millions of
dollars yearly for fifty years.
True, the Democrats have preached
this doctrine for years, but coming
from a board of the presidents friends
this report of the tariff board is enough
to bury the Republican party so deep
in political oblivion that it will meyer
come to light again.
Yes, the tariff board has served a
good purpose.

Two Kinds of
New Year inventories.

In the first few weeks of the new
year, every business house in the land
is engag' in taking measure of its
goods and accounts.
Thus they viii definitely determine
what progress has been made during
the old year, what lines have been
most profitable, and what have brought
losses.
It is custom that is as necessary
in modern business methods as is
bookkeeping.
And, if we but knew it, it is a Gus
tom that is just as beneficial. in our in
dividual lives as it is in business.
Isn't it worth while to pause at least
once a year and find out what pur-
poses have carried us forward in the
world. what endeavors have profited
US, and what lines of conduct have
slackened our hold upon the better
things?
After a few annual inventories the
merchant finds out from the inexorable
figures of his balance sheet that SELL
ing shoddy as good goods doesn't pay
in the long run. The profits may be
large for a while. but they don't last.
And if it is worth annual inventory
of stock and accounts to learn this
rule regarding a few hundreds or
Thousands of dollars, isn't it worth an
nual inventory of character and
achievement. to learn the equally fixed
1.rule regarding the all-important things
of private life?
Shoddy in character and conduct
goes no further, fools people no longer,
and brings no more lasting profit than
It does in business.

UNCLE ISAAC GIvEN A CLEAN BILL

composed Of regulars. insurgents, demo-
Gratis, saints and sinners, which came
to Wisconsin. at the request of our
state legislature, to investigate certain
charges in connection with the election
of Isaac Stephenson to the senate, has
made its report. Its findings coincide
with public opinion that Senator Step
henson transgressed no law of political
expediency not pursued in that race by
saints MeGovern, Hatton and Cook, ex-
cept that his expenditures were in ex-
cess of theirs. Everybody knew as
much, but it appeared to be necessary
to put the state to an expense of $780,
600, and the general government like
amount, to crafty che spite of political
adventurers and prophets. So long as
the people sanction that characted of
waste in the management of their af-
fairs they should not complain at ex-
cessive state taxes and other extraYa-
gances
