The Thrifty Young Man Found a Prof itable Investment. I T would not take many families of the size of that represented in the picture at the head of the column to make a f tirly popu lous city. Patrick Cavanaugh is the American citizen who is carry ing out the Rooseveit principles as to anti-race suicide by bringing up the family shown. He lives at Alameda, Cal., and has recently pe titioned the legislature to pass a law exempting heads of such large households as his from taxation. In the photograph produced above Cav anaugh stands at the left end of the column, his wife next him, and their children, numbering twelve, form a series of steps, ending with the liti le tot at the extreme right. As Cava naugh and his wife have scarcely yet reached middle age, they have hopes that their family may one day be even larger yet. TLe first thing that attracts the eye of the visitor ts tliat the trees are al ways full of foliage. There being no autumnal changes of climate, the trees remain the same the year round. When Central park, New York, tiegins to look bare and tlie weather bureau Issues warnings for a cold snap and snow the bulletins in the west are pre dicting rain, with warm southerly winds. The exodus from the east begins in early November. Many of the large hotels and popular resorts have their accommodations engaged months in advance by the winter pleasure seek ers who at this time find California all in holiday attire. Nature covers the mountains and highways with a wealth of scarlet manzanlta licrries, a non- edible but very decorative fruit which resembles the English holly. The manzanlta grows o.. a spreading bush about four feet In height, It is large- ly used for Christmas decorations. In the southern part of the state the popular winter resorts for bathing, boating and fishing are Corbnado, Cat alina, Redonda, Santa Monica and the farfamed Long Beach of Los Angeles. The New Year’s festivities of southern California take on quite a different character from those of more northerly communities where snow and ice generally prevail at I this season.

A leading candidate for the post is George T. Oliver of Pittsburg. Mr. Oliver is publisher of tlie Pittsburg Gazette, which he bought in 1900. He was born in Ireland in 1848, came to this country in early life, graduated A millionaire, hoping to encourage his young son in ways of tlirift. prom ised to give him 2 per cent a mouth in terest upon any money that be uiigbt save out of his allowance and deposit iu the paternal treasury. The young man was getting £5 a week for pocket money and promised to show bls ap preciation of bis father's affectionate offer. He began to make deposits without delay and kept the practice up with remarkable regularity. The old gentleman noticed presently that the deposits exceeded the whole of the boy’s allowance, but accounted for this by supposing that he had saved some money previously. Besides this, he received money frequently from his mother. Bo the fond parent rejoiced in the saving disposition that his son was displaying. This continued until the boy’s de posits assumed such dimensions ns to demand an explanation, it tlieu turned out that most of the money he had been depositing had been borrowed. Inasmuch as he was drawing interest on his deposits at 2 per cent per month and was paying only 10 per cent per year for them he had found the busi ness decidedly attractive and profitable. —Pearson's Weekly.

Guthrie of Pitts burg has had the task put up to him i.f upholding tlie credit of his city in I lie face of charges that grafting has been going on upon an extensive scale imong tlie council men of the munlci- lulity. The mayor has appointed a ommlttee of safety to carry out meas ures for unearthing crooked dotngs and punishing tlie guilty. It Is said that Andrew Carnegie has put up $150,000 for use in tlie w-ork of moral regenera tion. The story told in the Duquesne club and the Pitts burg club Is that the man who told of Pittsburg condi tions to President Roosevelt also went to Andrew Carne- gte and laid an ar ray of facts before GF.OIÌGB W. OtrTH- RIE. him. The result, ac- cording to rumor, was the authorized expenditure of $150,000 in detective work. It is said tliat altogether about $1,000,000 is available for use in run ning down grafters and punishing them. The councUmanic upheaval will re sult in the naming of an entire new ticket for mayor and councils before the coming election. The Voters’ league decided to indorse neither of the candidates which the Republicans are putting forward, nor. since Mayor Guthrie cannot be re-elected owing to a city law, do they favor any of the timber the Democrats offer. A new candidate to lie run on the Voters’ league ticket is now what they are looking for. There is to be a candi date for councilman in every ward where there seems to have been graft ing. Tlie Voters’ league announced that it had received assurance of federal help In the forthcoming prosecutions. Mayor Guthrie was chosen executive of Pittsburg in 190«. He is a native of the city and was born In 1848. He was graduated in IMlfl from the West ern University of Pennsylvania and two years later from the law depart ment of Columbian university, Wash ington. He married In 1S8t} Florence T. Howe.
