"Many a man who has Inherited mil lions," once said Frederic Harrison, "la gnawed with envy as he watches a practical man turning an honest penny. How he would like to earn an honest penny! He never did; he nev er will; and he feels like a dyspeptic invalid watching a hearty beggar en joying a bone or a crust. Many' a rich man is capable of better things; but he does not know how to begin!" The ancient law suggests a restoration of the liturgies, the public services of rich men as they were organized In the model Greek republics. "At Ath ens the liturgies were legal and con stitutional offices Imposed periodically and according to a regular order by each local community on citizens rat ed as having capital of more than a given amount. ... It always re mained a public office, a duty to be filled by taste, skill, personal effort and public spirit. Rich men contend ed for the office. The chief ambition of a rich man came to be that of mak ing splendid girts to his fellow citi zens, and theaters, stadiums, colon nades, aqueducts, gardens, libraries, museums, pictures, statues all were showered upon favorite cities by wealthy men who possessed or covet ed the name of citizen." A few mul timillionaires In our American repub lic have made public benefactions. May their tribe increase! The gift of a public hospital or a school build ing Is always In order.

How to save a nickel and lose a thousand dollars is a lesson learned by a Bronx contractor. He was at the Fordham station of the Third ave nue elevated and be wanted to go to West Farms, at the end of the Lenox subway, to submit a bid on a contract. The ordinary way to make such a trip would be to pay two car ares, but this careful contractor saw a way to complete the journey for a single fare, but be says he will never do It again. He bought an elevated ticket and rode down town to Third avenue and One Hundred and Forty-ninth street, where he got a transfer to the down town subway train. He intended to ride down to the next station, Mott avenue, get off there and cross to the uptown side and ride back to hla des tination, thus saving five cents. Un fortunately that day there was an ac cident In the subway, the trains were blocked for nearly an hour and he was in a train that was stalled halt way between two stations. When ne finally did arrive at the office be found all the bids bad been opened and the contract awarded. His bid, however, was lower than the one accepted, yet It was for a sum sufficiently large to have shown him a cool profit of 11,000. Then he went out and spent about $20 in drinks to drown his sorrow, New York Times. Generous Offer. The money In circulation in this country amounts to $34.61 per capita.

ASKS POWERS TO STOP WAR Turkey Wants to Quit Fighting, Admitting Defeat BULGARS CONTINUE TO ADVANCE Rout of Turks In Big Battle Described as "Scarcely Paralleled In History;" Loss of Turks Estimated at 40,000. A dispatch from Constantinople says that the Turks have turned to the powers with an admission that they have been beaten and a plea for mediation. This application Is said to have been made to the foreign ambassadors In Constantinople and to the powers through the porte's representatives In the chancellories of Europe. Mediation with a view to the cessa tion of hostilities and the opening of ppaoe negotiations with the Balkan allies Is said to be the request of the porte. The correspondent of the Dally Chronicle wlrh the Turkish army writing from Chortu on Nov. 1 con firms the previous reports of the de feat of the Turks In the big battle with the Bulgarians, which he says was "terrible and appalling." He says It was followed by a rout "scarcely paralleled in history." Forty thousand of the Turkish troops have fallen and 75 per cent of the artillery was captured. Abdullah Pasha had a narrow escape from cap ture. The army found its way back to Chortu by handfuls. The Bulgarian artillery mowed down thousands of Turks during the battle. The Bulgars' artillery was much superior to that of the Turks. It appears from this correspondent'! story that the Bulgarians had a bad quarter of an hour's battle after cap turing the town of Lule Burgas. They advanced from the railroad a distance of four miles and during this time passed through a depression between the hills. Here the Bulgars .wero tremendously mauled' by Turkish shrapnel from the heights and -when the confusion among them was at the worst Turkish cavalry swept like a tornado on the remnant of the Bulgars. But the Turkish cavalry rode too far and came within range of the Bul garian machine guns which brought horses and riders to the ground In a torn and mangled mass from which few issued alive.
