Incompetency is the fatal defect
that must bring shipwreck to men and
enterprises, and incompetency is usu-
ally inexcusable, the result of a self
conceited attempt to perform things
which a person doesn't know how to
do, without exercising the industry
and application to learn.

The effect of the new tariff is strik-
ingly shown in the case Of meat i'm.
ports. According to the foreign COM
MERGE returns Of the United States,
the total imports of fresh meat from
October 3, 1918, the date when meat
became duty free, until the end of
April was $1O,55O,914. OF this amount
$9,70O,OOO represented beef and $780,.
900 mutton and lamb. In the pre-
vious year there were no imports Of
fresh meat, the duty being prohibi.
tive. These figures cover period OF
seven months only.
1t is generally better plan, so far
as self-interest is concerned, to decline
to do customer a favor altogether
than to do it hesitatingly and grudg
ingly. A frank, business-like refusal
does not rankle as deeply as conces
sion that has the earmarks of carry
ing with it either ill-will or suspicion

Henry McAdams, IS, a fisherman, Is
in a serious condition at the st.
Joseph's hospital today as a result o. =
gunshot wound over the heart which
McAdams says was accidentally self In
ficted in q shack along the river
front between Main street and the
bridge at 10 o'clock last night.
His physician DR.. Lee M. Cohey.
fears he may not live although II
probably will be two or three days
before HIS exact condition can be de.
termined.
The wound was inflicted with a shot
gun. The charge entering his breast
a little to the right Of his heart, took
q glancing course to the left side
tearing away the flesh from his ribs
in q path two or three inches wide
It is feared a stray shot may have
entered his lung and will U his
death.
Omcer LeFeber who heard the shot,
entered the shack and found Nc.
Adams, fully dressed, lying on the
bed. The gun was resting with the
butt on the floor and the barrel
against the edge OF the bed. The OH
Ger called the patrol wagon and Nc
Adams was taken at once to the st.
Joseph hospital where Dr.. Coffey at
tended him.
In telling OF the accident McAdams
said that some men had been stealing
fish from his lines and that he had
loaded the gun with n shell, intend
ing to fire 1t over the river In the
hope OF soaring the men away. He
had fallen asleep on the bed n IN
his sleep accidentally discharged the
gun.
The police today were Inclined to
believe McAdams may have attempted
suicide. It Is said that two weeks ago
he threatened to drown himself In
the lake. From the course OF the
wound in the mans side and the
position of the gun when McAdams
was found, the theory Of suicide is
claimed to be substantiated.

ers live in the city. He has q wife

tempting to take his own life, but 1t
is said he had been drinking Just
