DON'T BE MISLED: THREE-CENT
FARE ABSOLUTE SUCCESS.

Look out. everybody, for mislead
ing headings in certain newspapers on
the three-cent fare situation in Cleve-
land. Traction Company and City

one, a sample of many.
Here are the facts:
Recently an old power house and
some old cars were scrapped This
meant an over-draft of about a mil
lion dollars-a legacy from the fight
ing days when the company let its
plant run down.
Fares are now three cents each,
with a penny extra for a transfer,
is used. To make up the Over-draft.
the plan is 10 give the penny to the
company. yielding S75O,O0O extra in a
year. But persons who don't need
transfers-the great majOrity-will
continue 10 ride for three cents. When
the over-draft is made up. the trans
fer will again become free.
This was all foreseen and provided
for in the so-called Tayler settlement

You can't keep a good man down"
Maybe you've heard this and felt some
personal satisfaction over the likeli-
hood OF its being true. But wouldn't
il be much better II it were true that
you can't Keep a bad man DOWN. The
good men are expected TO get up and
can be left 20 their task of getting up.
Bat. when a bad fellow is down and
gets up, isn't that the real occasion for
jollihcation.
There's Hi Gill. notorious the
country over as SeattIe's bad mayor
and recalled By the people of Seattle.
Iii says he has reformed and would
like to be mayor again. lie tells why
thus:
i've got couple Of boys out at my
house. The older one knows 1 was re-
called. He knows what that means
The younger boy will know before
long. Once in while my older boy
comes home from school looking queer
and hurt. And I know that some
little sprig has taken a shot at him
because his dad tried to be mayor and
couldn't make good.
THE boy won't say so, but / know
him we'll enough TO know that he's
just a little ashamed Of the old man.
And 1 tell you IL hurts. I've got sis
tiers, too, good women. and proud,
that are married to good men.
And they aren't exactly proud of
their brother. And I've got friends
good God. how they've stuck TO me-
when 10 be friend Of HI Gill isn't
fashionable
When I'm dead and my boys nave
sons of their own. / want them to be
able TO say: Your grandfather was
mayor of Seattle-twice. The first
time he wasn't much of a mayor be
cause he made mistakes. But the
second time he was the best mayor
Seattle ever had"
We're not saying that Hi ever could
or should be mayor of Seattle once
more. but II he is sincere in what ne
now says he feels. he surely has got
hold of a strong rope in helping him
self get up" There are lots OF finer
things than being an acceptable mayor.
one of them is being a first class
father a fine example of good citizen
ship 10 two growing sons. for instance.
All boys may not be born equal, but
every boy is entitled to a good father
and a good mother and the father who
SO behaves as 10 bring public shame
upon his son commits about the
heaviest sin on the whole list Of sins.
II a father SO down, gets up, through
reform and atonement he accom-
plishes that which is better than any
political Job that politics ever bred.
Let not Iii Gill despair and back
slide! He may never again be looked
up to" as a mayor, but his boys may
look up TO him as a good father.

THE COAL DISCOVERY.

If il is natures plan to provide no
one thing without the means of max
ing that thing available it is possible
the discovery of coal north Of Misha
waza may not prove to be merely
chunk brought down from the far
north by the glacier which eXcavated
the st. Joseph valley
When the boys which once notified
the landscape south of Mishawaka and
which provided the material for the
first and founding industry of the place
were impregnated with iron il may
have been part of natures plan to
plant near by coal with which to re-
duce it to merchantable metal. The
fact that the coal was not discovered
concurrently with the bog iron proves
nothing to the contrary.
Nature carries out her plans with
sublime Indifference to time and con-
currence. These elements are left to
the intelligence. the discerning power
and the enterprise of man. If he fails
to put this and that together and
come to logical conclusions it is no
concern of nature. That is his own
affair. The plans of nature can wait.
They were made for no generation, no
century. no age Of the world
Deductions from the same premises,
however. do not encourage the hope
that coal will be found in large guam
titles. 1t will be remembered that the
deposit OF bog ore was early exhaust
ed and that the industry died. If the
coal deposit was in proportion st. Jo-
seph county is not likely to become a
rival of Vigo as a producer of fuel.

ADAM PHULE.
BY inference we take it. according
to Prof. Willis, the New York physi-
ognomist, no man can get to heaven
unless he is good looking: that if he
eats pork he will look like a hog, and
that if he eats oysters he will be a
clam.
THE deduction does not convince
us. If a strip or two of bacon for
breakfast or a few bluepOints are 60
ing to keep us out of heaven, so be it.
This is projecting physiognomy into
eternity, where there isn't any.

MAIDS REPLACING WALLETS.

Mems maids are gradually taking
the place of the valet. The stringent
money market has brought about the
change. "There's more mems maids
than mems men or valets," asserts a
New York employment agent. 'eVisit
any Of the fashionable hotels and you
will see maids changing the studs in
evening shirts, pressing trousers with
patent alcohol irons, brushing the
coats and putting fresh laces in
boots. The average wel-to-do couple
travels with a maid, but not with a
maid and valet. For, after all, a
valet is very expensive and his duties
occupy only few hours a day, and a
maid can get through all of them
just as well. So the average lady's
maid is a mans maid as well-maid
to the wife, valet to the husband.
She Likes her latter duties. They
are, you see, simple and easy, and
they draw forth the most generous
tips"

JUST WHY NEED HE WORRY?
Lighthouse Keeper Seems to Have tho
Laugh on the Respected Courts
Of California.

Living a solitary existence on a
barren island, far removed from all
the pleasures and gayeties of the
great throbbing city Of San Fran
cisco, does not keep one George w.
Graves from whistling merrily, "This
Is the Life"
Graves, who is the chief lighthouse
keeper at the Farallones of San
francisco, was made a member of
the Alimony club by Judge Morgan
in December, 1913. In granting an
interlocutory decree of divorce to
Mrs. Isabel Graves, the court at tnat
time ordered Graves to pay his wife
$50 month.
Swallowing this medicine smiling
ly. Graves repaired to his lonely sta
ton, where, according to Mrs.
Graves, he forgot all about alimony.
Last January Judge Morgan is
sued an order citing Graves to appear
and show cause why he had not
obeyed the mandate Of the court. The
order could not be served, however,
for the reason that the federal gov.
ernment will not permit anybody to
land on the islands unless on govern
msnt business.
On The other hand, Graves, when
he did visit the mainland, failed to
mention his trips in advance notices.
When Mrs. Graves called on Judge
Morgan the judge had to admit that
ne was pewerlcss in the circum-
stances. The woman declared that
she would appeal to President Will
So.
Meanwhile Graves, in the security
OF his island stronghold, is politely
telling the superior court of Cali
fognia that 1t should worry-not he.

WARNING TO vAcATIoNISTs.

The state commissioner of health
calls typhoid can inevitable accom-
paniment of the vacation season" and
tells how and why the vacationist
renders himself vulnerable to this
dread disease. "There is a common
but erroneous idea," says the COM
missioner, "that clear water is pure
water. Many stream
which to all appearances is uncon-
taminated carries the germs of
typhoid and dysentery." Whether he
chooses a country hotel, farmhouse
or a summer camp the vacationist
invariably prefers to be near a
stream of water. Sometimes he
drinks from such stream without
the slightest concern as to the purity
Of its source or as to the contamina-
ton to which it may be subjected
along its course. Almost invariably
he bathes in it. Bathing in polluted
water has been found to be almost "a
dangerous as drinking.-Philadel-

MARKS WORLDS PROGRESS
Evolution of MatabeIe Territory From
Savagery to Civilization 10
Good Example.

1t is a little more than twenty
years since Lobengrla, the Matabele
chief, died obscurely few months
after the complete destruction of his
military force. The stay-at-home
Englishman scarcely realizes the
rapidity and completeness of the
change that has taken place in
quarter of century, says the Lon
don Standard. Bulawayo, where
bloody sacriicial rites were per-
formed little over twenty years ago,
is one of the most perfectly equipped
towns in the world. 1t has a mag
nificent railway station, many
schools, churches, chapels, a mu-
scum, public library, learned and
other societies, parks, geological gar
dens, frst-class hotels, daily and
weekly papers. There is a theater
continuously open throughout the
year; race meetings and gymkhanas
are held frequently; and here, where
the Matebele name was once heard
with shudder, learned anthropolo-
gists discuss at scientific meetings
the habits and customs of that fierce
race. 1t is hard to realize that 21
years ago not stone of the modern
city had been laid. Rhodosia has
made marvellous progress during the
quarter of century to be completed
this year. But it has been sound
and sober progress, auguring well for
the prosperity of the country in that
, not far distant time when many mil
lions of white men will exist in
health and comfort in one Of the few
tropical countries where, owing to
peculiar conditions, the climate is
not inimical to the health and vigor
of men of European race.
