Whenever he travelled by rail
road he hired special trains and
cars. In this way he spent several
million dollars. In 1911 he travelled
all the way from Yuma, Ariz., to New
York by special. The section Of
the journey from Chicago to New
York he made in sixteen hours ana
fortynine minutes, a speed record
for special trains. At one part OF
the journey he worked the speed up
as high as nine-twc miles an
hour
In September last he came all the
way from Minneapolis to New York

he was coming East to be treated

Then he took another special back

This year It became apparent that
poor Charlie Gates's race was rapid
" coming to an end. His mind and
body were wearing out under the
terrible strain OF his reckless life.
He acquired blood poisoning by hurt
ing his knee while cranking his au-
tomobile. His ninety-mile-a
train bumped his head against the
roof OF the car. He ate inOrdinately
Of the richest kind Of food In too
great a hurry. Wine and other
drinks added to his troubles, al
though he was not what is sordinar-
ily called a drunkaTd
Charlie Gates died without leaving
any children, and the family Of John
W Gates has come to an end.
z Charlie Gates was not an alto
gether wicked man. There have been
young miIlionaires whose influence
has been much worse. But the IN
timely death Of young Gates serves
to teach an impressive moral lesson,
as the Rev. Dr.. Peters truly points
out And It is q double lesson for T.
includes a lesson for parents. Young
Gates was the result OF the inspira-
ton and the influence OF his father
from the father the son learned to
value all the things Of this world
which are not worth while.

Not infrequently Gates became in
volved in some nocturnal fight al
though his lavishness with his
money tended to avert these affairs
One night he persistently criticised
the pool playing OF W. J. de Aguero,
a prominent member Of the New
York Athletic Club. When Mr..
Aguero requested him to be quiet he
hit the prominent member on the
nose. For this he was suspended for
a time.
Gates was married at twenty-five
to Miss Mary W Martin, Of Chicago,
who was even younger. Her life
was inevitably made unhappy by
Gates's reckless living, in spite OF
his generosity and good nature. In
1911 his wife obtained a divorce
from him In New York. mentioning
a prominent musical comedy star.
When the suit was begun Gates
was In California nursing his al
ready shattered health. He immedi-
ately took a special train back to
New York, sending his wife hourly
kilograms saying that he was get
ting better. They did nothing to
stop the divorce.
Two months later he married Miss
Florence HopwOod, a daughter Of r.

was a remarkably pretty girl. "a

tial report reached New York that
Mr.. Hopwood had thrashed his SON

IduuOr Question.

Editor Of the Richmond Virgnian:
Sir.--l do not wish to be too sarcastic, but
who gives so per cent of their earnings to the
government but the dstiler. And why does he
give it? Because congress says he must; and
why doesnt congress make the lawyer, preacher,
doctor and publisher give one-half of their
remuneration to the government? 1t is gen.
orally accepted that nine-tenths OF all crimes is
attributed to whiskey: and that 1t takes more
than the revenue to avenge these crimes; then
what profit is the revenue?
The distiller Will make all that he can sell at
profit. and men will drink all they can
get unless you stop them by might, spite. or
fright. drunkard was stopped entirely while

cause his relatives wished he was dead; another

eminent service, he became the city
engineer of Petersburg. He built the
city water works, laid ont Central

ways upon the physical character of

he has been practicing his profession
over a broad area of country, and

THE REAL ISSUE.

The contention of the Norfolk TtrgintdnP Plot
that 1T is as much tho duty and to the interest
of the State to furnish the educational facilities
Of these institutes (summer normal schools)
without charge as 1t was in the first instance
to provide free the schooling which prepared
scholars to pass examinations to become teach
ers" is exactly the contention held by The Vir-
gipian and by the State school authorities, with
the exception that both would 60 further and In.
crease salaries. The Ttrginian-Pilot and The
Tirginidu are so nearly in accord on this ques,
ton however. that We take the liberty TO set our
Norfolk contemporary Alright on one OF two
points.
No denial is made that the cost OF the summer
normals Is largely in excess of the appropria
lion made by the State for the reason that the
fact was thought well known. Had the school
board confined itself to the use OF the State APP
preparation there would be only FIVE white and
TWO colored normal schools and these anything
but efficient. It is not true, however. that the
bulk Of the excess of the cost over the State
appropriation is borne by the teachers unless
onehalf he called the bulk. Denial has been

Moreover, attendance is necessary only once
during the life Of teachers certificates, which
tuition. then would mean about dollar year
TO those teachers who attend the schools.
The position of The Vir0inan is this:
Why raise q furore about the action of the
board in charging teachers a dollar year so
that normal schools can be made 80 1-3 per cent
more efficient, when the need Of larger salaries
IS crying evil?
Why waste good ink and white paper and
raise excitement to save teachers dollar year
at the expense OF their opportunities for training
when the same agitation would result in in.
creasng the salaries of those teachers. and in
making them better able TO bear the expense
of attendance upon the normal schools even
though they had to pay many times the present
tuition fees?
Why offer the teachers aims when they are
not receiving justice?
To our mind there is the real issue,
