"No, you don't see my children
loafing around the streets at night,"
said the janitor of
Street Tomer •*
a city apartinent-
Urailiintra. , ~ .
house,according to
a writer for the Youth's Companion.
"It costs me something to keep them
away from the gangs, but it's worth
the money. They're all respectable
people here on the street, you know,
and some pretty well to do. Doesn't
seem to be any need of their boys
going wrong, does there? Well, the
trouble started with letting the boys
run wild in the evenings. The janitor
of this next house didn't attend to
his business. The boys learned he
wasn't around at night, so they used
to take their boxing-gloves into his
basement and light the gas and have
great times—regular prize-fights.
Now, that was only a boy's caper,
and needn't have led to any serious
harm, if the young fellows had been
taken hold of right then and there,
and handled right. When the police
man found 'em and drove 'em, pos
sibly one or two of the boys did get
a-wlialing; but they went right back
to their hang-out at the corner, and
kept on scheming how. to have fun.
Come warm weather, vacation time,
and the leader took a notion to jump
on a train one day and have a ride,
lie got out in the country and begged
his living for a day or two. and then
he hopped on another train and came
back. He had a regular picnic, he
thought. All the other boys were
wild to try it. Well, one of 'em did.
He. got thrown off the first time,
so he had to do it all over again.
The second time he got under the
wheels, and that was the end of
him. Mind you, all these fellows
had been picking tip lots of accom
plishments while they hung around
the corner. In the course of a year
they knew how to smoke, they were
good, hard swearers, and could lie
pretty well, and because they could
do mischief all around the neighbor
hood and dodge the policeman, they
thought they were about as smart
as the next one. It happened one
day that the leader of the gang
was suffering for cigarettes, so, what
does he do but steal a pair of trousers
and pawn 'em. He stole from the
wrong man, as it turned out, and his
folks couldn't settle the case. The
officers on this beat pave the boy a
bad name —and there's no denying
he was the worst of the bunch—and
the judge sent him to jail for 30
days. Well, there you have the year's
record of six sons of decent people.
One of them killed while trying to
play 'hobo,' one graduated to jail,
four of 'em "on the ragged edge of
worthlessness, and all of 'em under
17 years old. I bought my boys
gymnasium tickets last winter," the
janitor added. "They're playing
baseball now, and in the fall they'll
join a football team, if I have to
start one myself. They've got to
have company, and they need some
way to work off their animal spirits,
and I calculate decent company and
decent sports in decent places are
the cheapest kind."

THE PRESIDENT'S SUCCESS.
.Satisfactory Iti-nnlts of Ills KfTttrla to
Secure' Legislation on
Trusts.
When President Roosevelt began his
speeches on "Trusts" last summer fill
felt a grave risk had been courageously
assumed. The- feeling was equally
shared by those who opposed and by
those who supported his course, by
those who approved and those who dis
approved the regulation of trusts by
federal legislation.
If much were accomplished great
business interests might be injured. If
nothing' were done the prestige and
position of the president, his adminis
tration and the republican party might
be imperiled, says the Philadelphia
PresSs
Six months have passed. A measure
regulating trusts is now certain to pass
congress. It will be conservative. If
will not disturb business. Solvent and
well-managed enterprises it will not
affect. Others need small considera
tion. It is accepted, however, unwill
ingly, ns necessary and inevitable by
the ablest and most powerful capital
ists in charge of these great corpora
tions. It is drawn by the congressmen
who have beien most conspicuous in de
manding the regulation of trusts. A
contest which might, it once seemed
probable, either inflict injury on busi
ness if a law were passed and if none
were enacted might arouse public
opinion to demand extreme measures,
has,been brought to a healthy compro
mise.
Publicity will be secured, but with
out vexatious interference with busi
ness secrets. The long litigat ion under
the Sherman anti-trust act will be
brought to an early decision. Railroad
rebates, on which trusts have thrived,
will be made more difficult by making
it as dangerous to accept a rebate as
to grant, one. Secret contracts as to
price will be regulated.
This legislation, which promises to
pass wit hout serious opposition, brings
these great corporations under the
purview of the law. It begins the diffi
cult fask of government supervision in
a new field. What President Roose
velt demanded last, summer is begun,
and begrin with a measure which
| changes all the outlook for trusts,
i Their freedom from all regulation
! ends. Their reports will be public,
j Their special railroad favors will be
J curtailed. Competition will have the
support of law against secret discrim
ination.
| It is a great victory of a newtnation
al policy, boldly launched, wisely
urged and brought to a conclusion
which satisfies the country as the first
step in a difficult problem, without dis
turbing business, endangering credit
or alarming capital.
QUEER STATE OF THINGS.
DemocrntN Votlnjc AjinHiist n Sliver
Currency for tli-e Phil
ippines.
The republican leaders in the house
were probably astonished at their
complete defeat in the matter of the
Philippine currency bill. Twenty
eight republicans bolted and joined
' the democrats in adopting the substi-
I tute offered by the democratic minor
■ ity of the committee on insular af
fairs. The situation is not without
comical features when we consider
, that the republican measure provided
for a silver legal tender currency
maintained at a ratio of 16 to % with
gold, while the democratic substitute
was the American gold standard pure
| and simple. Surely times have
changed since the age of William ,T.
1 Bryan, says the San Francisco Chron
; icle.
This currency bill should never have
been made a party measure, for the
J silver issue is as dead as Pharaoh's
: mummy and there is really a good deal
| to be said from an economic stand
| point on both sides of the Philippine
money question. It became political
for the reason that those favoring the
' extension of the United States coinage
laws to the Philippines do so mainly
rk an incident of their contention that
all general laws of the United States
should be spredily extended to the
islands, with the object, as soon as
may lw, of completely incorporating
j the islands within the limits of our
body politic. A uniform currency is
one of the important agencies of pro
moting trade, and the legend of"the
United States of North America"on
I the cum nt coin is an agency in de
veloping patriotism in our people. It
was tin se considerations, rather than
economic views, which prompted ~S
1 republicans, under the lead of some
• who have nlway- favored free trade
with the Philippine*, to join thedem-
I ocrats in voting for a measure be
lli \i d to tend in that din ction. What
will hnp|ien to the bill in the senate is
an altogether different question. It
j is ess# ii tin I that some currency bill be.
passed, but it may lie safely predict
ed that the house bill will hate a hot
time in the other wing of the capltol,

DEMOCRATIC PLANS.
Mil}' Take Ip the Cause of "Tine Op*
pressed ( oiimmiuit*' anil Atluek
II IKb I'riees.
"There arc indications," said Secre
tary Shaw before a New York repub
lican club a few days ago, "that un
other campnign is to be waged against
high prices."
High prices are, indeed, the chief
argument for revising the tariff, lr
its destitution of issues the deuio
eratic party is likely again to take up
the cause of"the oppressed consum
er," ignoring, as it always does, that
lower prices mean lower wages and
lower profits and that as producers all
consumers are bound to lose more by
tariff tinkering than they would gain,
as they <1 id in 1893, says the Chicago
Inter Ocean.
This is not. to say, of course, that
particular schedules should not be
changed when concrete advantages
may be gained. Secretary Shaw, in
the same speech, gave a very clear and
accurate test by which to determine
when tariff schedules should be re
vised.
"Our unprecedented prosperity," he
said, "does not imply that the tariff
schedules are perfect, or should never
be revised. It- does imply, however,
that they should not be revised simply
because they are imperfect. Some in
dustry ought to show an actual hard
ship before present conditions are dis
turbed."
Perception of that fact, and the fail
ure of any important industry to show
that hardship, was r-ne of the reasons
that led the American people in the
last election to reject the democratic
clamor for tariff revision and to stand
fast for letting the tariff alone at
present.
The other reason was-that the Amer
ican people are endowed with common
sense and believe thoroughly in doing
one thing at a time. Tlie thing they
wanted done first was the curbing of
the trusts. They agreed with the
president that this was the first task
and that incidental defects in the
tariff should be let alone until that
task was accomplished. And for that
policy they voted.
Indications multiply that thedemoc-
racy, deprived of the trust issue by
republican legislation, will make the
next campaign upon tariff revision.
No one, of course, presumes to say
that conditions might not be improved
by revision. On the other hand, as
Secretary Shaw significantly said, "no
one dare insure against their being
made worse."
I ntil the democratic party dares so
insure it is not likely to be trusted to
revise the tariff. And the republican
party will not touch the tariff until the
trust question is settled, and tlu-n will
change schedules only as some in
dustry shall show actual hardship in
them.
SOMETHING TO REMEMBER.

Alluding to the fears expressed by
some of the Chicago packers that the
new German tariff may play havoc
with their export trade. The Boston
Herald remarks that "they will find
tio difficulty in disposing in the Amer
ican market! of all t,he food stuffs that,
they have been sending to Germany
if they will lower their prices the mer
est trifle." And Ihe Herald adds:
"The American market is the one
which the packers have to depend fin
for their profits, and the more they
cultivate it the better it will be for
them." The admission that the
American market is the one 011 which
the American producer must rely for
profit, coming from a free trade news
paper like the Herald, is noteworthy
and significant, says the Troy Times.
That is the protection argument in a
nutshell. The true protectionist
knows and has always affirmed that
prosperity for home industry depends
on the home market. That does not
prevent or discourage proper effort to
extend our trade to other countries.
Hut sales abroad always have and un
questionably always will be but a
fractional part of those made at home.
The bulk of what we grow and manu
facture is used at home. The surplus I
goes abroad. It Is well to have as |
large a surplus as possible and to sell I
all we can tn foreign lands, e*p< clallv !
when such sales are testimonials to j
the superior < xcellence and cheapness
of the American product. Hut that !
does not change the fundamental
truth that the American market is the
irnatist and lust for American goods. !
It is highly Interesting 10 have free j
trade recognition of that fact put on
record.

One of tin' fianu ConfcKwcN and Telia
How Tiles' Nude Sums of
Muiiey Out of a System of
Fraud that Kx Idled
lor lO Years.
New York. Feb. 12.—An exposure
of the methods qf the conspirators in
the recently discovered Italian life in
surance frauds was made yesterday
by the confession of one of the men
concerned. It appears that the frauds
have been in operation for ten years,
during which time the insurance
companies have been defrauded of
hundreds of thousands of dollars. In
one instance a company paid out $20,-
000 on one fraudulent risk. The head
of the conspiracy, Mr. Krotel says,
was Bartolomeo Cirino, who was re
cently arrested and released under
SO,OOO bail.
The usual plan of operations was
to make an application for insurance
in the. name of some person in a
practically dying condition, a healthy
substitute being presented for med
ical examination. In cases where
the original "risk" lingered too long
to satisfy the conspirators, a substi
tute body was used on which to col
lect. the amount of the policy. These
bodies are said to have been furnished
by Joseph Tripan, an Italian under
taker. who is now awaiting trial in
; the Tombs. In some instances false
: death certificates were presented,
j said to have been signed by Cirino,
! or by two Italian doctors who are
now under heavy bail.
So well organized was the scheme
that there was a regularly appointed
board of directors that used to meet
every week to discuss the payments
of premiums falling due, and pass
upon the matter of the substitution
| nf /bogus bodies in the case of "risks'*
{ that did not die until the payment of
premiums became too heavy.
A MINE DISASTER.

| Diiluth, Minn., Feb. 12.—Two lives
j were lost and ten men had narrow
escapes as a result rsf a Are in Xo. 3
shaft at the Spruce mine, owned by
the I'nited States Steel Corporation,
at Kveleth, Minn., yesterday,
j The fire was caused by the explo
sion of a lantern which was left near
the edge of the shaft on the second
level, 150 feet below the surface,
j Ninety feet deeper In the mine !2 men
! were at work in a drift which was
being put through from Xo. to Xo.
1 shaft. There was no escape for
them except by way of Xo. 3. in
which the fire was raging. There
was no ventilation for them and they
were in total darkness, the lights
from their candles being of little
avail. They groped to the point
where the drift joined the Xo. 1
shaft. When they could no longer see
! fire above they began climbing the
ladder.
Ten of the men reached the second
level. Two, O'Brien and Matthews,
were overcome when about 40 feet
from the point of safety and fell
back to their death. The firemen
fought the fire by carrying their hose
down the Xo. 1 shaft and through to
the point where the blaze originated.
Quick work in extinguishing the fire
saved the lives of at least ten men.
ARSENAL ABLAZE.
A Storehouse at Hock I«taiid lltiriih,
4'anolnsc a Loan of 8 1,500,000.
Rock Island, 111., Feb. 12.—"Shop
A." the principal issue storehouse at
the itock Island arsenal, was de
stroyed by fire last night, with its
contents. The latter included cav
alry and infantry equipments of
every description, and 1,000,000 rounds
of Krag-Jorgensen smokeless ammu
nition. The contents were worth
$1,500,000. The building was a mas
sive structure, three stories high,
erected 20 years ago at a cost of
$400,000.
The flames in the great government
institution endangered property
worth many times the amount lost.
The fire was under control by 1
o'clock this morning, at which hour
Maj. Blunt, the commandant, made
the estimate of the loss given before.
The Hock Island arsenal is the larg

THE PROFESSOR'S DISCOVERY.

Una Itpcncd.
It took the professor a lifetime to master
the intricacies of tlie old Egyptian hiero
glyphics. One day he discovered a roll of
papyrus, containing in one place mysterious
marks too faint to be deciphered, says the
New York .Sun.
It took the professor a week to find out
that the papyrus was in a double layer
with the mysterious marks in between.
It took the professor another week to
separate the layers of the papyrus without
tearing it.
It took the professor practically no time
at all to read the writing, which ran as
follows:
"My name is Blanche Terwilliger. 1 work
in Mctiuire's factory of antiquities at Osh
kosli, Mich. I am a brunette, 18 years
old, and generally considered handsome.
I could make a trusting wife to the right
man and write this note in the hope that
it will fall into the hands of such a man
and so lead to further correspondence."
It took the professor two hours to yield
the objurgations which he felt the situa
tion demanded.
Did the professor marry the girl?
Thunder, no! The professor was already
married. The idea!

a cure for Kidney Trouble. Mr. Gosney
suffered very severely with Kidney Com
plaint and some ten years ago made up his
mind to find a euro if one was to be had.
He has tried and tried and experimented
■with every kidney medicine he could hear

he kept on trying till at last hisperseverence
•was rewarded and he found a complete

He is a well man to-day and explains it
as follows:
"Everything failed to cure me and I was
growing worse and worse till I tried a new
remedy called Dodd's Kidney Pills and I
had not taken many of them before 1
knew that 1 had at last found the right
thing. I am entirely cured and I cannot
