the Idea of u big titlst of two billions

Pan-American Financial Failure.
T1IIC announcement that the
dellclt In the lluanLS of the
Pan - Ameiiean i:piwltion
will be in the neighborhood
of $1,000,000, Mill no doubt be a sur
prise to many who have mingled in the

TlK' hitter natiu.ill do not iclish the
Idea of doing without the laiger por

leiuly begun lo institute suits against

incorporating the stuikholdeis pio
vldes that they should not be liable lor

I'ven moie important than this is the
adveitlsemeiit which Uuli'alo has te

Connecticut's plan Is to appoint a
state foi osier, who must ho tiualllled
for his duties by sclentllie tiainlng ami
expel ionce lie Is authoiUed to buy
land suitable for tho giowth of oak,
plno and chestnut tiees. The utatu has
not provided him with much money,
and when he goes maiketlng tor waste
lands he must not pay more than $1
an aeie. Theie is said to be a gteat
deal of land In Connecticut ninth even
lo-s than Unit small sum, mid if the
state llnds that the money is well In
vested, with a pi utilise of prolltable ie
nirns, the ptesent iippiopilatlun of
$L',000 will he tollowed by giants moie
liberal. It Is ,i small beginning that
Connecticut has made, but better a
small one than none at all.
The anti-tobacco people, says the

the way of a compliment to u political

It should be won by majorities that
leave no doubt, that the sentiment of

opposed to the dlsieputuble methods

A number of Rending school boys,

tuics pi luted In a Philadelphia yellow
paper as leadeis of a "refurtn" move

little boys grow up they will probably
admit that the blich would have been
