New rules to tiag aacoee to man ir woman were given by Dr. Add! son Mi lore, leader of tbt Rockefeller Bible Class, is the Fifth Avenue Baptist Church. Incidentally "tack" was declared to be something that never did and never will exist. "There is no sach thing as luck," Dr. Moore said, "What seems like a piece of chance good fortune is inva riab'y the result of conscious or un ymscions preparation, frequently go ng back fir years." A simple rule for socces and on hicb Dr. Moore declares la Infalti ble, waa given hy him aa follow?: "To be a success is to so live your iife that it shall cause no one to lose f-iith in yon or in the world." Ir. Moore then said that there is no sex in success " "Soccess, real success,' be said "Is almost a purely ideal thing. Nobody ?oes so high that he desires to go nr ugher. Men are like the skyscraper s-chitects they build op a twenty story success and immediately set tr work on a firty-story structure. "Fame and prosperity are only in 'Mental, not the essential acoompani inent of success. If I were to for- nnlate a single rule for succeeding io life I should say 'Find the work rou like best and then do it with all your might.' " Dr. Moore declared that the person loing work that he dislikes is bound to (ail. "A rich man who made hts mor y in business, when a thousand tifled impulses were crying to him o become an artiet if he starved," aid Dr. Moore, "is infinitely more ol t failure than some poor painter who makes a bare living and perhaps never will do any better. Success In married life. Dr. Moore aid, was all based on the element of rust that must exist between hus band and wife. "The nnhappiness of married life ail goes back to e lack of trust on tlx part of either husband or wife," bf aid. "The woman who, even ii oe does nothing technically wrong icts In such a way as to shake bei husband'i faith in her, foils aa wife. "The man whose comings and go ings lay him open to suspicion, evei f there is actually no faot to justify tbe suspicion, fails as a husband. "Married people live successful l when each can look back at the end it the day and test that no deed ol his has injured the ftith or feeling of the other. "The qualities essential fot attain ing the successful life are honor, loy alty, unselfishness, love of work and cheerfulness.' The President's Message. President Taft sent bis annual message to Congress Tuesday. Its principal features are as follows : Bi .-ine.ss Laws He does "not now recommend any amendment to the anti-trust law. It seems to me that the existing legislation with reference to the regulation of corpor ations and tbe restraint of their buei ness has reached a point where vce can stop for a while and witness the effect of tbe vigorous execution of tl e laws." The president says supreme court decisions iu pending cases will show tbe exact limitations placed on business by the law. Tabiff General revision is oppos ed. Permanent tariff commission and non-partisan revision by ached ule on a scientific basis is recom mended. Kailkoaim An appropriation is urged fur tbe interstate commission to make a valuation of all railroads as important "if we ultimately enact any limitations upon the power to Is sue stocks and bonds." Cukskkvatioh Leasing ol govern ment coal lands, with royalties and conditiuns to prevent monopoly, is lecom mended. Leasing of water power sites is likewise favored. Postal Laws Gradual extension ot postal savings banks recommend ed; also establishing a parcels post on rural delivery routes. Increased post age on maguxines strongly urged. Meucuant Mabine Ship suuti dy, especially to South America, is favored. Col'hts Reform of judicial pro cedure, to lexseu delay and cost of ! litigation, is recommended. Laiiob Mr. Taft asks that the eigbt-hour day bill be amended to iucluJe work on ships, armor and j heavy guns. Moon injunction bill i a'aiu urged. Co ocrete blocks made in any quan tity by B. E.

On his ad mission to the bar in 1S67 he entered into partnership with his preceptor, who wrs then in Congress, whicb Association he continued uatil 1871. Naturally during the absence of Mr. Van Auken tbe responsibility of bib large practice fell mostly to the care of Mr. Bull which gave him wide experience and broadened his knowl edge of the law. When he opened a office for himself he was well equipped to take a leading position at the bar, and which he has since sus tained. Be was methodical In hab its,,studious in preparing bis cases. tenacious in his positions and able in presenting his evidence He bad a good legal mind and keen acumen in discerning what was strong on his side and weak on the part of his ad versary. He was pleasant socially, a good conversationalist, abounding in reminiscence and bad an excellent memory. Upright in his dealings, scrupulously honest, he was faithful to the interests of bis clients and made them bis friends. He was not ambitious politically and was content with local offices though at times those of a wider scope were within bis grasp.

He was a guide and counsellor to his children ever regarding their welfare with the keenest interest, and lavished upon tiiecn a wealth of ten der solicitude. In tbe community be was highly respected and his counsel wag soagbt as being conser vative and safe.

NEWS FROM WASHINGTON A''tv a ret ami an election eventful in AmTieaa politics, the national legislature again in session in Washington. It will be a full year, however, before the re It of the recent elections can he fully felt in iegilation, and by that time there may be sach changes in commercial, in-Iostrial and political condition that tbe intention of tbe voters as xpre9ed a few weeks ago will b modified or in un instances nulli 3ed. It is an unfortunate condition hat twelve months must elapse and session of Congress intervene beforn tbe w ill of the country as expressed at the pjlls can be carried into ef f'-ct, and when it is remembered that hi- c .ndition ts fixed in the Consti tution, that fet!.-h of the Americ-in !. jer and statesman, it is difficult o see how reform can be effected. It is expected tbat the present se -aoa wi.l address itself to routii.e business, the psssag4 of appropria tion bi'ls and necessary non-politiral measures. The President's proola oiatiun has recommended as a ma iter if coarse important new legislation, "iut there is little prospect of its !-e ing carried out. Nothing much will be d ;ne until after the Chiis'tuai holiday, and then barely two tin nth. of the Congressional session will re tnaui before this Congress, on the 4:h of March, xill be ex olficio, and, as has been Slid, the new Coagress just elected to do and nndo so much will not have its chance for one year. Among the measures that will surely have a bearing in tbe di.-cos sions under the appropriations bill- will be the subject of the fortification of tbe Panama Canal and there will be a confusion of party lines io tbe debate on this question. Some Re publicans and some Democrats will oppose the military program pro posed by the Presideut, while other Republicans and Democrats will ap prove it. Mr. Tawney. Chairman ot the Appropriations Committee, who failed of reelection, will urge that the Canal shall be made a free waterway unguarded by fortresses or cannon while those of the Roosevelt and Taft school politics will insist that a property costing nearly half a billion of dollars and essential to the defense of our extensive western coast Hue shall not be left without adequate military protection, always, of course "in the interest of peace," as Mr. Roosevelt would express it. To Reduce Postage It Is said that an eff ort will be made by - tbe Postmaster General backed by the administration, to pass a bill reducing postage on sealed letters to one cent and also to carry intn effect the long opposed parcels post privileges enjoyed by nil foreign peoples, but through the influence of the express companies withheld from the citiaens of the United States. The American citizen livinc in Washington may set d a ten pound package by mail to London, Paris, Berlin or Vienna, but he can not send the same package to Balti more, only one hour distant, or to Philadelphia or New York, four aud five hours distant. If the package should weigh only four pounds he can send It by mail lor 64o to any of these cities, but the four pounds to the European destination costs onl itfo. The Postofflee Department is not responsible for these outrages. They are tbe result of the monopolj which tbe express companies through their influence in the Senate and House have been able to maintain in the distribution of packages by mail. Iu other words, the exptess compan ies will not be able to nn.ke so much money if the people of the United States shall insist upon having as ood a arcels-poat service between Philadelphia and Cincinnati, for ex ample, as they have to Berlin or Paris.

Novem- ber 30th, a crowd numbering nearly five tbotmnd flicked to Carnegie 'Hall to pv warm tribute to the memory rf Mark Twain, (Samuel L. Clemen"), America's greatest humor ist. It wa the most dUtirjgUTshed gathering tbat bas come ticether here for many year. The speakers were Mr. Jo-x-ph H. Chate. Kev. Ir Jowph H. Twit-hell, of Hsrtfi rd, Ct Mark Twain's old pvtor, Champ Curk, of Missouri, slated to sucoewl Mr Cannon as Speaker in tbe next Congr.. Gerge W. Cable, Henry Warterwm, Henry nn Dyke, and list but nrt less dear ol I "Uncle Joe" Cannon bun!f. The stage on which these famous men were mm bled was profusely aud indeed artir tical'y decorated with spreading itreen pi. ins and American bunting Thi- -ii!reses were all g-xd and ev ery Si-eaker received his share of hearty applause. Mr. Cannon Md in his droll, drawling, delightful way how Mark : wa n came to Washington to "lot-by" in the interest of the copy r ht law. Mr. Clemens added that he wished to protect his and his children's riehls aeainst pirates.' "Murk Twain,'' said the cheery, old Speaker, with a merry twinkle in Lis pleasant eyes, "cherished an urgent desire to appear on the floor of the Bouse of Rt presentativea and argue his case. Mark came to n e aSout it. I told him that it could n 4 be done as it had never been dene. I said that uone but members and ex members bad the privilege of tht flour of the house. The only pretedeuts in tbe cases of others were when persons received the thanks of Congress. A few days later Mark slipped in, and, without a word, laid on my desk a letter ad dressed to me.1' Here is the letter : Dear Uncle Joseph : Please get me the thanks of Congress; not next week, but ripht away. It is very necessary. Do accomplish this at once, by persuasion, if yon can, by violence if you must, for it ia abso utely necessary that 1 get on the floor fr two or three hours and talk to tbe Congressmen man by man. I have arguments with me; also a bar' rel with liqn'd in it. I have stayed away from Congress and let it alone for seventy-one years and I am en titled to its thanks. Congress knows ibis well and it never has publicly acknowledged its appreciation. Seud me a reply at once with an order ot) the Sergeant-at Arma. With love and benediction. MARK TWAIN. Mr. Watterson spoke of the beauty and purity of Mr. Clemens' charact er and life "His marriage,'' be said, "was the must brilliant success of his life. He got the woman of all the world he moet needed; a truly lovely and v ise helpmate, who kept him in bounds and headed him straight . and right while she lived the best of housewives and mothers, and tbe safest of counselors sod soundest of critics She knew his worth; she understood his genius; she clearly saw bis limitations and angles Her death was a grievous disaster as well as a staggering blow. He never quite survived it." The closing and most effectively impressive feature of the meeting was Dr. Van Dyke's poem read by himself. Here it is : We knew you well, dear Yoriok of the Watt, The very soul nf large aud friendly j-st. That loved and mocked the brood grotesque of things In this New World where all the folk are kings. Yoor breezy humor cleared the air with -ort Of shams that haunt the demoemtio conrt For even w here the sovereign people role, A human, mouarch needs a royal fool. Your native drawl lent flavor to your wit; Your arrows lingered but they al ways bit; Uomerick unrlli around Uie circle ran But left no wound upon the heart of man. We knew you kind in trouble, brake iu pain. We saw you honor kept without a stain; We read this lesson of our Yorick's years True wisdom comes with laughter and with tears. Easy It is easy enough to be pleasant When life flows by like a song, And some other poor cum Is making a fuss Be cause everything's gone wrong.

The man said waiting for a girl. The policeman told Mm to take his hands out of bis overcoat pockets He suddenly look them out ana in one was a revolver which he fired point blank twice at the TM licetnan, who caught the man and a Bht ensued. The policeman fell and the man beat him over the head with his pistol and then ran away With his last remaining strength the officer fired at the re treating form and the man fell shot through the heart The officer died soon after. Every effort waa made to identify the c lininal. but without succe, until bis supposed father oame on from Bcuton, saw the body in tbe morgue and Doaillvelv identi. fled it as that nf his -no Hymen Wie ner, and started back home with it for bnrial. Within an hour alter the real Wiener appeared alive and well and easily established the fact that he was Wiener. We ooint the above to prove how eaaily mistakes are made and how uncertain even the plaiuest cases may be made. Bad young Wiener seen proper to further corneal himself it is possible tbe body would have been buried in Bos ton and the case closed with the Idea tbat be was the. murderer of the policeman.
