NEW TURK DDI Uf?f. ~r Some of the Things Done Daily in the Metropolis. Maxim- For Knwd Couples. If a young man allows hi* sweet heart to go to places of amusement with other men, he Is a foolish fel low. If a young woman who Is engaged to be married accepts the attention of other men. she is a silly girl. It makes no difference whether the "other men" referred to are friends of either party. Sweethearts' attention Is directed to the judicial wisdom, which was handed out by Magistrate Crane The Magistrate's advice was directed particularly to Tlllte Kosenbaum and Arthur Samuels. They, who are sweethearts, had caused the arrest of Nathan Davis on a charge of cir culating reports that reflected upon the good name of the girl. A fort night ago Samuels, being obliged to work, permitted Davis to take his <weetheart to a dance. It is charged that ever since that night Davis has been saving things about Miss Rosen baam. Samuels and the girl both wanted Davis sent to prison, but the magistrate dismissed the case after Davis signed a written retraction. "Little Tim" Gives Ills Views. A resolution to pay William M. Ivlns $12,500 for his services as counsel to the committee of Alder men which Investigated the Street Cleaning Department last spring took up the time of Aldermen Thurs day and elicted a notable speech front Alderman Sullivan. Alderman Sulli van asked that the resolution go over so that he could look Into the mat ?fw. He said that Mr. Ivlns had spent only 20 working days on the Inves tigation and that the proposed com pensation was exorbitant. "From what Mr. Ivlns told me," said Alder man Peters, "I thought he was going to do the work for nothing." "When Alderman PeterB Is a few years old er," said Alderman Sullivan, "he'll discover that reformers like me and Ivlns never does nothing for noth ing for anything." IIIn "Man" Client A Woman. As action against the Inter Borough Street Railway was with drawn by Lawyer Emmanuel L. Mil bersteln because he found that Ills client, the plaintiff. who had appeared as a man. was a woman. The sup posed "man" wore her hair cropped short, shaved her chin, and wore a black sack suit which fitted her well The lawyer himself was mystified over the revelation. "I first became aware that there was something queer about my client," he said, "when she refused to he examined by my physician I had had an offer of a settlement of the case from the Railroad Company. She had refused It, 1 had then told her that she would have to be examined by my physlrlan, who would bo called to testify In the suit. When 1 told her this she grew pale and bolted from my office. 1 have not seen her since nor have 1 been able to find her." Wouldn't Tell Who He Was. It was about 3 o'clock A. M., when Mrs. E. Frank-(lalloway was awaken ed by the opening of a door of her room. Abe saw a man of heavy build, medium height and fairly well dressed. Mrs. (lalloway asked him who he was and what he wanted. The burglar made no reply but coolly picked up a bundle of things he had gathered together from the table, with Mrs. (lalloway looking on and still demanding to know who he was, but the burglar paid no attention to her and climbed out a rear window through which he forced his entrance to the house. After the thief had me she gave an alarm. Cliancr- For ,V><? School Ma'am*. Five hundred teachers are needed In New York's public schools be cause the course of instruction at the Normal College has been lengthened to seven years. This was the ex planation of tho great number of vacancies in Manhattan given by Superintendent Maxwell at the meet ing of the Board of Education yes terday. Another reason for the shortage in teachers, he satd, was the rule of keeping the elementary grades in the schools free from over age pupils. This rule necessitated separate classes for these larger pu pils. and there weren't enough teach ers to take charge of them. To Fight An Chicken Diet. The women of the Brownsville section of Brooklyn held a mass-meet lnR the other night and resolved to eat ehlckens In the future, that they might boycott the Beef Trust. The meeting was called to order by Is rael Kelchman, who Informed them that the women pickets sent out dur ing the day had succeeded In closing several more butchers' shops In Brownsville. The resolution to eat chickens Instead of beef was adopted by a vote of 320 to 4. Chief Of Terrorists Here. Almost direct from Siberia, whence he escaped In a barrel of sauerkraut, Gregory Gerschunln. most famous of the Russian terrorists and chief of their fighting committee, arrived in tbls city Wednesday. ODDS AND ENDS. The population of Rangoon Is 250, 000, of which 3,200 are Europeans and Americans. In the city and dis trict are 80 rice mills, 32 sawmills, 2 oil works, 4 iron works, 2 ship building yards and 12 Ice factories An old woman who has just died at Wisbech, Germany, at the oge ol 84, wrote her own obituary notice on the day before her death, and alsc made a list of all the friends t< whom she wished memorial cardi to be sent.

H Bailey. ^ 0TIK character of farming is changing rapidly. Il is coming 1 more and more to be an efficient, profitable, and attractive business. With here and there an exception, in the past we have not given much consecutive thought to the business? nothing like as much as the merchant gives to his business . or the doctor to his. It has been so "easy" a business that , untrained men could succeed In It. The change In economic and social conditions is breaking up the tradition. Farming < is becoming more difficult, and the old methods must go. In 1 the future only the well-informed and efficient thinking man can succeed; that Is, only the educated man. The country is to offer other advantages to the educated man than merely , to be a good farmer. There are good opi>ortunities for leadership on public questions?probably better opportunity and with less competition than in the , great cities. The very fact that city .representation is Increasing in the legis , latures should make the able country representative more of a marked man , The growth of the Institute movement, of the grange and other rural organiza tions, gives fresh opportunity to develop leadership of a high order. It seems to me that, by the very nature of the progress we are making, the college man must go to the farm. In fact, college men have been going I back from the beginning of the agricultural education movement. Statistics i show that a very large percentage actually have returned to farming, and this I In spite of the fact that cities have been growing with marvelous rapidity, and I that the whole system of agricultural colleges and experiment stations has | i been developing ami calling for men. Consldt ting the limitations under w hich the agricultural colleges have developed, without sympathy, with the indiffer enco antl sometimes the opposition of educators the very men who should have known better?with wholly inadequate funds, it iB little less than marvel- i ous what they have accomplished within a generation It is probable that the proportion of students of the leading agricultural colleges who now engage In j agricultural pursuits is greater than students of that of colleges of law or of ! other professional colleges who follow their chosen profession. No one now questions the value of education to a lawyer or physician; why question Its value to a farmer? The educated man will go back to the farm if he is fitted to be a farmer.?The Century. ^ ^ ? ?? ?? . Ilr1 ^ i i I^iw > ? ng 77ie Wall Street Gambler if ..or.. : | Sweatshop Oppressor Worse than Petty Thief \ By Dr. Lyman Jtbbott. ^ ????MMHK portraits of nil the pickpockets of our country do not z X hang In the Rogues' t;allcr>; the pictures of the biggest X r I ? X pickpockets Ol the country are not to be found th< n. fit The man who takes money which he has not honestly X * ? earned from the pockets of the people at the gambling IIIMUMI table, or In the speculator s shop, or in industry in which ? young childn a are ground up in the sweatshop in order to supply cheap goods, is far more a robber than the petty thief on the streets. In the life of the baby, the child and the young man in college, we recog nize that things are made for the baby, the child and the collegian; but when the young man leaves college and enters business, this whole order is re versed and our American people seem to accept it as a truth that man was made for things, not things for man, and that the measure of a man is the amount of money that he can make. What a curious phenomenon this is, but that it is true of many, many of our people no one of you can doubt. If we as a people are to accept It as true, let us change the stars in our flag to dollar marks, and our motto from "in God we trust," to "Be successful honesly, if you can, but be successful." I was recently talking with a noted lawyer in New York who told me that for a large number of wrongs and immoral methods of business practiced in New Y'ork city to a large extent there was no punishment in the statutes of that place. The law was codified years ago, and since then both the law and crime have increased, but crime has outstripped the laws, fan it be said that money?the badge of ability to discern between the dishonesty that is il legal and that not illegal?is a sign of character? I have heard temperance orators say that the saddest tragedy of life was |hat offered by a bright young man going forth into the world, and blasting his hopes by drunkenness. But it seems to me that the picture of a young man leaving college with high ideals of manhood and life, entering business and there learning to conform to business standards, losing his conscience and moral discernment, is a far sadder tragedy and one as frequently if not more frequently seen than the other. ^7 $' ' Choice of Friends - ?c 9 By E. S. Martin. ? I-i ITH disparity of means and the other disparities, most of ??? I which (except sex) impinge on it somewhere, comes the II great daily question of associates. The world, luckily, is H full of people of different genders and manners and unequal I -? - ? fortunes and abilities, all of whom are ours to know and j play with if we can. But we cannot play with them all; ^ there are too many. We must choose and be chosen. Some measure of selection becomes inevitable in every society as soon as its numbers increase enough to affopd scope for choice, and of course selection implies some degree of exclusion To cultivate one person or one family more, necessitates cultivating Rome other persons or ! families less That is inevitable. Tastes differ, and a preference for one per son or one lot of people docs not necessarily Imply disparagement of others. Propinquity, associations, relationship, and various circumstances determine w ho our friends shall be. and> the advantage of having desirable and profitable friends is so obvious that the most careless observer cannot fall to discern it. Indeed, suitable acquaintances are so good to have that appreciation of the advantage of having them leads some of us into the serious mistake of be ing over-particular as to whom we shall know. The desire for the company of the best people we can get at?our betters If possible?is an asplrBtion that in itself is creditable to our intelligence, but wo fall into a serious mistake when we let it go so far as to prompt us to limit our acquaintances to Just the right people and no others. An excluslveiyss that shuts us ofT from even an ex perlmental knowledge of varieties of our fellow creatures Is neither conducive to onr profit nor to our popularity.?Harper s Magazine.

The peonage raxes against two tveraeer* of the South and Western Kailroad and the Carolina Company were abruptly ended in the Federal uourt at Charlotte by a plea of {iiiltj on the part of the defendants, who were at once fined a total of |:;.20o. The two overseers, Mjtrk Baxter ind W. W. MeKlroy. were fined (l.oAu each a.id the Carolina Com [>an> $1,200. The eases, which have ittraned widespread interest, origi nated last spring, when scores of Italians, Hungarians and other for eigners were brought Into the State lo work on the South and Western road. The foreigners soon became lis-atisfied, and, claiming that things ind been misrepresented to them, a lumber quit work. it was alleged that a party of for igners esc aped from the surveillance if overseers into the mountains, but were brought hack and put to work, while some were incarcerated in Mc Dowell County Jail for twenty days. In May a riot occurred between the foreigners and some of the over seers. Two Italians were killed and a number wounded. The affair was disposed of in the Slate courts, Js.OOtl being paid to relatives of the dead men The Ital ian government, which had inter ceded, then expressed itself as being satisfied, but the Federal court has been at work on the cqpe ever since. It brought such strong evidence to bear that attorneys for the defend ants decided upon submission, which was entered in court Friday. Judge Phlegar. of Virginia, and ,T. Craw ford Broogs. of Durham, N. C., repre soflfpfl thp flptpiwiuntg Tho L'illlne of the Italians was alleged to have been the result of a conspiracy among persons who attacked the men. Later it was allege! that there was a conspiracy among the for eigners after members of the first attacking posse had been tried and acquitted. The Carolina Company, which was fined, was employed by the South and Western Railroad on construction work. The riot in which the Italians were killed was the indirect cause of the peonage charges which followed. Witnesses, who were on their way to Charlotte to testify in these cases, were telegraphed not to come when it became known that there had been a compromise. After ten minutes' deliberation at Greensboro, the jury returned a ver dict of first degree murder i i the case of Crazier Johnson, colored, charged with killing his wife on Thanksgiving morning at Gibson ville.

The decision was rendered in the case of the state against the Southern Bell Telephone and Telegraph Company. The decision, it is estimated, will cause a loss of (l.'iO.OOO a inually to the state. The decision was based upon a lack of unformityin the opera tion of the law. which required all express, railroad, telephone aud tele graph companies doing business in the state to pay into the state treas ury a sum each year which, added to its regular property and franchise taxes, shall make the entire amount paid equal to 2 Ppr cent. on its gross income.
