death she preserves the life of the
artist. after helping him to achieve the
ambition of his life--a sublime por-

DEMAND IS FOR SERVICE.
Public Ideas Have Had a Significant
Change in Comparatively Few
Years.

When the French aristocrat before
the great revolution was asked as to
his chief service to society, he replied
''To have been born" He felt that his
mere presence an honor on his coun-
try. That has been the attitude of
privileged classes of all time.
But new ideal has come into mems
minds-the ideal Of labor, of service
to the community. Today the public
is constantly asking them to justify
their income. what have you done to
deserve it?" ts the question. by
what service to society you have earn
ed your money!
1t used to be considered perfectly
proper TO water the stock Of great
public service corporations. But now
people have come tC see this means to
get an income without working for It,
and public sentiment is shutting of
the practice. Melon cutting in connec-
tion with franchise grabs was once
popular But Il became apparent
that this was merely one way Of get
ting something for nothing, and the
day of melon cutting done.
So. all up and down the line the de-
mand has come for service in return
for income. Society is willing to write
its note for pretty nearly any amount
to the energetic man,bu it insists that
the payment shall be for value re-
ceived.

Too Much Tobacco For the
MARYLAND WarehOus

Maryland Warehouses;
The food Of shipments OF Maryland
tobacco in the State tobacco ware
houses in Baltimore has been 50 great
that Inspector wilkinson has serious
" considered the placing Of an omgar-
go in shipments for the present. After
talking over the situation with a num-
Der Of men interested. he decided to
hold of any orders looking to an en-
barge for the present and to do tho
best he can with the tobacco as it
comes 10 the warehouses.
The weather all summer has been
ideal for the packing Of tohacco,in thta
there has been so much rain and the
moisture I'm the atmosphere has been
abundant. Tobacco cannot be hand
led in dry weather, as il VIII crumble
to pieces, and the only time the grow
ers can handle It and pack It I'm hogs
heads after it has been cured is when
the weather IS soft" as they call It.
There has been so much soft" wealth
er recently that nearly all the tobacco
In the State has been packed and tho
growers have been piling It into the
warehouses IN Baltimore city at tho
rate that has not been equaled.
The result has been that the ware
houses, both those Of the State and Of
the Baltimore G. Ohio Railroad, have
had all their available space taken up.
There is some space left I'm the Balti-
more & Ohio warehouse, but that space
is being reserved for the Ohio tobacco
which that road handles,and for which
il has been accustomed to provide
warehouse facilities.
The congestion Of tobacco in the
warehouses Is said to be due to the
lack OF shipping facilities TO the other
side Of the ocean. Practically all OF
the tobacco grown in Maryland and
much OF that grown in Ohio is pur-
chased by the French Government The
/ buyers, u is said, have bought liber-
ally, but have been unable to take the
tobacco away because of the difficulty
OF getting ships 10 take IT, To meet
the warehouse situation, the practice
Of 'skidding" will be resOrted tO-that
/ is, the hogsheads OF tobacco will be
"skidded" up one on top Of the other.
This has rarely been necessary, and #
I is being practiced 70 some extent now.
Il is Objectionable I'm that it involves
a great deal Of extra work, is some
/ times dangerous because the men who
work among the "skidded' tobacco are
liable to get crushed il anything
should slip, and It puts the man whose
tobacco is on the bottom Of the pile at
a disadvantage in getting his tobacco
out OF the warehouse when sold. Not
since the time Of Governor Brown
have the warehouses been as full Of
tobacco as they are now.

Late to'See Parents

MADISON, wis, March 2l.-Another
case of the pardon that came too late
was disclosed at the governors office,
when it was learned that Arno
Schmitz, sentenced to the workhouse
for six months for burglary, was in
nocent, and that his parents died with
in a week, his mother the day before
the pardon really reached him, and just
in time for him to go to the funeral.
Schmitz was sent up on circumstan-
tial evidence. and though there was an
appeal for mercy because OF the age of
his parents, and the illness of his wife.
II did not bring a suspension of SEN
tence. The errors in the application

don, which reached him too late for his
fathers funeral, and too late TO see

Holland has consented to handle
the United States mails to Germany
provided they do not contain contra
band. and in view Of this fact the
Postmaster General wants a ruling.
The Issue was brought by q German
newspaper man in Washington who
mailed an eleven-pound parcel Of
flour to a friend in Germany as a test.
This shipment went through without
question, and the Postoffice Depart
