several years I was in such wretched
health that life was almost a burden.
I could hardly walk across the floor,
was so feeble. Several of our best

help. I concluded to write to you for
advice. In a few days I received such
a kind, motherly letter. I followed your

THREE DAILY TRAINS BETWEEN
OGDEN AND DENVER.
The increase in transcontinental
travel by way of Salt Lake City in con
sequence of the scenic and other attrac
tions of the route, has recently justified
the Rio Grande Western Railway in
connection with the Denver Rio
Grande and Colorado Midland Railroads
says the Salt Lake Tribune, in estab
lishing a triple daily last passenger
service between Ogden and Denver.
All of these trains are equipped with
the latent appliances, improvements and
cars. This road now operates through
sleepers between Chicago, Ogden snj
Kan Francisco, also a perfect dining car

THE OTHER FELLOW.
H IS NOW HOLOINQ THE JOB
YOU WANT.
Dev. She Advice to the Collerre Ora4
Htw If Ton Htmmt the Poaitioa Tow
Moot Do the Work Better thaw the
Uneducated Most Ahead of Tow.
"When you go out from school said
Gov. Leslie M. Shaw, of Iowa, in re
cent address to the students ot North
western University at Evanstou, 111.,
"you will find the other fellow,' aa Sato
Jones says. He has aot been to college,
but he Is occupying the place which
you want, and he Is four years ahead ot
you. He will stay there, toot unless the
training you get In college better pre
pares you for his place." ,
This Is a plain statement of an indis
putable fact, and one whjch jrollege stu;
dents should commit to memory. A
mere college training will not enable
iny one of them to get "the other fel
low's Job unless the training the grad
uate has secured is of the practical
kind, which makes him better fitted for
the place than the man Without. a col
lege education, who holds- It. He will
not be able to secure the place on his'
ulploma, on his standing In his -class, on
his fraternity affiliations, on bis good
looks, his good clothes, or even his good
recommendations, and If by chance he
ihall obtain a position on the strength
ot these he will not be able to hoM It It
he does not possess In an equal dOgree
the merit which enabled 'the other fel
low to make his way without any of
these advantages.
Everything else being equal, the
young man who Is fortunate enough to
inter upon a career in these days with
1 college education has an advantage j
ever the other fellow, but he. cannot
tfford to rest or play upon that advant
age tor a moment If be .depended
upon It to carry him through, the other
fellow wUl pass him In the race., If
a person can do one thing and do It wetl
he will be worth something" said Gov.
Shaw. "It makes no difference what
you do, as long as you do it better tbsn
It has ever been done before. There is
10 risible opening in any line yob might
elect On the other hand, there Is a
splendid opening If yon can try a case
better than any other attorney. There
sre many attorneys, but not so many
lawyers; many pedagogues, but few
teachers; many medical men, but few
Sectors. One-fourth of the lawyers In
Chicago can try a case no better now
than when they began,, and all through
Wisconsin there are women who can
cook no better than they could the day
they were married, and they are told so
three times a day. The world Is ready
to pay any price for excellence. The
lifflculty with the average man and
the rest of them Is that they do not pay
enough attention to detail No matter
what profession you master, you must
also master detail
All this is true. It is so demonstra
bly and palpably true that recognition
f its truth has revolutionised the sys
tem of higher education In this country
within the past twenty-five years. It
was In response to the demand that the
Mlleges should turn out graduates' with
tome fixed purpose In mind, with some
special training, with something like
in equipment that would enable them
to compete with the other fellow, and,
possible, excel him,' that Harvard,
fale, Princeton, Williams, Cornell and
)ur Western universities adopted whol
ly or in part the principles which ob
tained exclusively In purely technologi
cal Institutions only a few years ago.
The danger for a time was that the
reaction In favor of the practical
branches of education as against the
cultural might go too far, and it Is to
the credit of the faculties of the Massa
chusetts Institute of Technology In
Boston and Armour Institute of Tech
nology In Chicago that the danger was
svolded. As the purely cultural col
leges have exhibited a tendency to be
come more practical the purely tech.
steal Institutions have exhibited even
t stronger tendency to' become' taore
jultursJ, so that the latter are equip
ping their students to-day, not only for
the inevitable hand-to-hand encounters
with the other fellows, but for the
Higher places in life for which their
;ollege training qualifies them.
The college students of our times. It
s cheerful to know, are having the doc
Brines enunciated by Gov. Shaw ground
Into them on all sides. They are made
to realize now that they cannot step
jut of a university Into a big legal or
medical practice. Into a dally newspa
per editorial chair, into the presidency
of a bank, or to the forefront Id any
walk of life, Just because they gradu
ate with honors. They are being taught
now that, while education gives them a
tremendous advantage, nothing short
of actual contact with the sharp cor
ners and actual experiences In the hurly-burly
of life will finally enable them
to compete with the other fellow. He
Is npt only four years ahead of them
he may be twenty he often Is In prac
tical knowledge, and he will always re
main about that far In advance of the
man who thinks he has nothing more to
learn when he bids good-by to bis alma
mater, Chicago Inter Ocean.

It Is In Sicily that both poverty and
crime have reached their most porten

diverse strains of blood, language and
tradition, and an Unfortunate historic
development We cannot, Indeed, ex
plain the social facts of Sicily in our
time without reference to" the 'past.
Centuries of turbulence and misgovern
rtwnt produced a condition, of attain la

the rude Justice of revenge became
widespread, la our dny. with the pos
sible exception of some of the outlying
districts of European Russia. Sicily Is
t,b poorest part of Europe. The ages
earned In the sulphur mines and the
horrible condition of the people em
ployed therein have been so compli-t-ly
exposed that it la not necessary to
dwell thereon. SuhVe It to say that
with the factors of wretched poverty
and a long historical tra'n'ng lu crime,
superadded to a quick Moodetl, violent
people, we may understand the growth
and power lu Sicily of that murderous
soctHty, the Mafia, which the Ita'lan
government Is now attacking In ear
nest at Measlna. The Mafia Is to all In
tents and purposes a murderous organ
isation, which sticks at nothing to se
cure its ends. But formally, and on
one side. It Is a klud of mutual benefit
society. Its members sre bound to pro
tect and benefit one another under giv

about an advance agent tor the Thomas
Orchestra who recently went to New
Orlesns to book dates for concerts. He
was told that It would be well for htm

at her residence, and a ring brought
out an old negro, who took the caller's
card, on which printed the legend,
"Representing the Thomas Orchestra."
Presently a young woman came to the
door holding the card In her band. She

young woman, who said: "I don't think

three hundred dollars. A catalogue was
inclosed, which would give him an idea
of the plant, and the firm hoped to be
favored with bis order. The firm bad

Many years ago, when President
Kmgi-r was In England, lie was ap
proached concerning some concession,
railway , or otherwise, by a buslue s
ma a In London. Tin negotiations last
ed for some time. One evening the
Londoner, wbo war staying at the
same hotel having spent many hours
with Mr. Kruger and his companion,
went to bed much exhausted, and feel
ing he had not got quite all he wanted.
Next morning he arose at nine o'clock,
and went along the corridor to Mr.
Kruger's bedroom. To bis astonish
ment It was empty, and all the luggage
was gone. "Oh, sir," said the cham
bermaid, "Mr. Kruger and his friend
left at six this morning." Then, with
a giggle of amused reminiscence, the
girl added: "They was a queer couple,
sir, and no mistake. When 'e passed
your door, .sir, Mr. Kruger, 'e started
dancln' right outside your door, sir, e
and his friend. They didn't know as
any one saw them, sir, but Bessie and

During ail advance In Manila recent
ly, says the Chicago Tribune, one com
pany had to lie down at the side of the
road for shelter from the well-directed
volleys of the Insurgents. One of the
privates had dropped his haversack In
the middle of the road away back, and,
after the company bad laid 'down, be
calmly stood up and walked down the
road toward the loHt ' haversack. He
made a fine target for the Insurgents,
and the bullets rattled around him
pretty lively. "Here, come back here,
O'Melley," yelled the lieutenant of the
company; ."you'll be killed." "Well"
replied O'Malley over bis ffhoulder, "I
might Jest as well be killed as have

down dale and comln' over to me bouse
Ivery mornin' aud a-snyln', 'O'Malley,
why don't you pny the government for
that haveysack?' " Then he calmly
walked on and got the lost piece of
property, and as be came back and sat
down Just In time to escape a volley of
Mausers, he threw the haversack on
the ground and said: "And when he
does come to-morrow mornin' to me
house I'll say, 'Otis, me little man,
you're dead wrong. I never lost no
haveysack. There's your bloody old

acter will be set up, so that there may
be no possible dispute at these points
as to the exact location of the line.
"We are simply to ascertain the lo

Mr. Tilmau expects to begin sctive
work in the field about June 15. He

BRADSTREET'S REVIEW.
Readjueimenl ef Ulatlee the lead
InS Sealuie, e( Trode.
Brnditreai'a says; Readjustments of
price quotations to meet the changed
condition of supply aud demand are
till the leading features of ths general
trade. In volume the busluess doing
is ot a between -season character, im
provement in some lines being counter
balanced by increased dullness lu other
tiranohes. That the basic conditions of
the trade are in the main of a favorable
nature, however, is proved by the oou
tinned good railroad earnings returns
which come to baud. The fact seems
to be that the volume ot business offer
ed the transportation interests of the
country continues considerably in ex
cess of a year ago. Crop reports are
relatively nut favorable aa regards
corn aud oats. In the Southwest,
wheat crop prospects are still main
tained at a high average. In tin)
Northwest wheat has beeti helped by
late rains, but owing to their late ar
rival it is uol cvrtniu bow much bene
fit was obtained thereby.
The liund-to nioutli domestic demand
for imn and steel continues, but tbu
number of small orders received
riuuthnru pig and steel rails note
most inquiry. The situation In the
pipe market is no better, aud plates are
weaker. Concessions of fractious of a
dollar are apparently easily obtained
for pig Iron, but throughout the trade
the feeding is rather mote cheerful, the
feeling being that lower prices will on
the one hand encourage consumptive
demands, aud, on the other hand, tend
to restrict pnuluvtlou by less economi
cal plants.
