SHOULD PITY RICH
Dr. Hirsch Says Rich Mtn's Sons
Arc Failures.
SUCCESSFUL ONE IS RARE
flfcted Speaker Asserts That Majority
of Millionaire's Sons Are Failures
i and Should, Without Excep-
tion, Be Pitied.
CHICAGO, Feb. 20.-" Along with the
ether social settlement in Chicago, let
us orea a settlement on the South Side
for the benefit of the millionaires' sons.
Most of these rich young men are fail
ure. The successful one. as we count
isueceas, is the exception. It seems to
me that the rich are to be pitied."
Thus spoke Dr- Emil G liirn' of
Sinai temple in an address las-t night
at the dedicatory exercises of the New
Maxwell street Jewish settlement, at
Twelfth and Clinton streets. Dr. Hirsch
asserted that the charitable acts 'of
rich men were effort in many ces
to compel the administration of their
friends. He emphasized the necessity
of true philanthropy in settlement work
nd not mere charity on the part of
the rich who sek to secure praise fori
. . i
their own selfish enjoyment.
It is a privilege for the rich to have
the chance to contribute to an inti
tution of this kind." said Dr. Hirsch.
"and when the founders of it allowed
men to turn over to it dead money to
become a power for good they were do
ing those rich men a favor. Charity as
the word is known today, is only a
bribe on moneyed men to make a com
munity forget the wrongs heaped upon
it Charitable people give money so
that they may appear in the guise of
benefactor.
In place of the word charity let us
substitute the word philanthropy. This
is the better word. It means the love
of mankind, not simply charity for
mankind. It is this spirit that has
moved the founders of all settlements.
As a matter of fact, the people of the
Ghetto here are often superior to the
residents of the avenues and boule
vards. READING CLTJB ENTERTAINS.
The Reading Club entertained about
fifty guests last evening at the resi

JOHN SEGALOS: HERO!
The Railway and Murine News has
the. following editorial regarding the
latest stunt of John Slgaloa, "Hero of
the Valencia," who lias entered the
rank of vaudeville performer i
Webster gives this definition of a
hew: "A person of distinguished or
extraordinary valor or enterprise t a
kind of demi god, offspring of a divlue
and a human being. The heroes were
mortal, but after death were admitted
snung the gods."
Does John Segalo. Oicek fireman,
come under this interpretation t Hardly.
If he were a real hero he would act
like one, notwihstanding the fact that
nature did not endow him wih the
brain of hi illimtrloiu race. In
agreeing to swim ashore from the Va
lencia he thought only of saving hla
own life, and it was not until someone
aboard the doomed ship suggested that
he take a line in his attempt to reach
shore that his dull brain evolved the
thought that he would he pulled bek
hould the attempt fail. He jumeJ
overboard -nd struck boldly out. He I
a strong swimmer, the greater portion
of his life having been passed, and
it is there he has risen by degree until
he has attained the proud position of
fireman and hero. He was a pigmy in
the arms of thoe mighty wave, and
when he realized he could not make
shore, he remembered the line that
would drww him back to the ship a live
hero, and give him another opportunity
in urnni whifh he did later on tiir
raft, and was picked up by the Tope.
