FROM OTHER PENS
THE SAYINGS OF STUBS.

Former Gov. Stubs of Kansas is
making a tour of Europe He is a very
active creature. is Stubs, and he seems
to have gathered more INSTRUMENTATION
than do most politicians on such Il
voyage. The rivers and canals of Ger
many fill him with delight, and he de-
mands that Uncle Sam buy a similar
set of hand-picked waterways at once.
IF the United States will develop its
internal waterways system. even to
slight extent" writes Gov. Stubs, 1.-The
complaint of high freights will be NJ
longer heard. . A New York to
Chicago canal would pay for itself in
five years." The Journal believes that
in this concept of a New York to Chi
cago canal, Mr.. Stubs has made a
new record in absurdity. He has eX-
tended the limit. A magnificent nat
ural waterway reaches from Chicago
to thirds of the distance
to New York. Why abandon the lakes
for a canal? For the rest of the route,
the old Erie ditch is being deepened and
widened; but the people of the empire
state will be satisfied if this undertak king
pays for itself in so years instead OF
five. The Hon. Stubs speaks of wa
as a cure for high freight
rates. Twenty minutes research would
show him that railroad freight rates
in Germany are almost twice as high
as those in the United States. The av-
eidSe iatc III 'cilidHy Is 10 HllnS per
ton-mile: in America it is about rs
mills. Nor can this be explained by
saying that in Germany, cheap and
bulky commodities are shipped by wa
ter. The entire freightage of all the
rivers in Germany for a year is less
than the amount handled by the Penn
syivania railroad system in two months

CHILDREN NOT IN SCHOOL.

over a million children will not go to
school this month because they are at
work in some two hundred occupa lions.
Owen r. Loveioy, secretary of the ma
tional child labor committee, said yes
terday that statistics indicate that all
the girls and at least nine-tenths of the
boys who leave school under sixteen
years enter low wage industries and re-
main unskilled workers throughout
their lives.
Mr.. Loveioy estimates that about
one-half of those now at work under
sixteen in all occupa tons are white
American children, one or both of
whose parents are native born. Amer
lean families are as ready as foreign
families to let children enter the fac
tory before they are sixteen. The Con-
necticut state commission, in a study
of more than IL ,000 women and girls,
representing fourteen racial groups.
found a larger percentage of Ameri-
cans with American fathers among the
workers under sixteen than among the
older workers.
The latest volume of the Federal
Report on the Condition of Woman and
Child Wage Farmers in the United
States makes a similar showing. OF
the twenty-eight racial groups into
which the $4,000 workers are divided,
only four races, involving less than
one-tenth of the total, had u larger
percentage Of workers under sixteen
than the native white Americans. OF
all the workers of all races studied in
twenty-three industries in seventeen
states, one in twelve was under six
teen years; of the American workers,
in the same Industries and the sa me
states. one in eleven was under six
teen.
The national child labor committee
suggests that in the light of the widely
recognized evils of factory work for
young people, it would be we'll for all
industrial states to consider following
the example of Ohio, which has just
put into operation a law forbidding
employment in factories and several
other occupations to boys under fif-
teen and girls under sixteen wears

INTEREsTING CROP FIGURES.

more money in the cultiva ton of ten
acres than he can from twenty acres.
and more from twenty than he can

from the article:

silver Bill Riley was a gambler, it
is true but he VAS a gentlealan alse,
remarked NJ. p, Franklin, a. business
man of Chicago, and at one time owner
of a string of thoroughbred racers, at
the Shoreham. THE death of Mr.. Riley
will be mourned by hundreds of men
and women whom he had befriended
in his prosperous days. L knew Mr..
Riley intimately. He made business
of laying wagers on horse races and
other sporting events. and he always
was ready to accept or make wager
on the outcome of a political contest.
In the press reports | notice his age
is given as 63. In 1898, 1 was in Chi

BILL He told me then that he was so,
so when he died q few days ago he
must have been 80. although he did not
look more than so, despite his snow
white hair and mustache.
Riley was capable of making a sue
cess in any business he undertook, but,
like other men, he was human. He had
his weaknesses. and if he made a great
deal of money in gambling. he would
lose it back at his own game. L hap
pened to see Riley before he left Chi
cago for New York. 1t was a long time
ago He had accumulated a great
deal of money, and had it in cash. He
told me he was taking with him to
New York $500, 900 in money and he
wanted to go back to the scene of his
birth-Brooklyn-and show the boys
how easy it was to make money. Riley
went to New York and operated for a
number of years. When he got back
to Chicago he was broke. In 1893 he
told me he was working for s25 a week.
His SS00, 900 was gone. Like others, he
had lost it against his own game. He
was smart as a bookmaker, but there
were others equally as smart, and they
got the money.
Zone side of Riley's life perhaps, was
not known to many of his friends. He
was an ardent lodge man. He belonged
to a number of fraternal organizations,
and never failed to visit the lodge
rooms whenever he struck a town or
city that had one. He was nearly al
ways invited to make a speech. and,

solved at last. A Paris scientist DIR.
Xavier, has been experfme nting on
simple process of watching a few. He
states that they practically disappear
into thin air by changing into ferrous
oxide, a brown rust that is soon blown
away in dust.
An ordinary hair pin took only 1874
days to blow away. A steel pin lasted
just fifteen months. A common pin
took eighteen months to vanish. A
polished needle def1ed the rayages of
the atmosphere longest, taking two
and q half years to disappear.
So the reason why the world is not
