PAGE TWO ANDREW CARNEGIE’S SON-IN-LAW. : DOWN ke By NEA Service. New York, March 29.—Andrew Car- negie’s son-in-law is sick from over- work. Roswell (Miller, who shares the ad- vantages: of the late ironmaster’s mil- lions with his: wife, Carnegie’s only daughter, has taken a $2,000-a-year job so seriously that he broke down under the train, finally being stricken with influenza. Now he is at Palm Beach, Fla., with his wife, recuperat- ing and hopes soon to be back at work. Miller's job is instructing New York university students in the mys- teries of mechanical drawing and in- ternal combustion engines. Besides his work in the classroom he assists in laboratory experiments. Miller’s Motives. ‘More interesting than Miller’s choice of his vocation is the inside reason of motives that dictated’ his decision. Immediately after his marriage to the girl who was one of the world’s heiresses despite the ambition of her father to give away all his wealth for philanthropic purposes before his death, (Miller was offered several op- portunities for a business career. ‘Charles Schwab, J. Pierpent Mor- gan and other captains of industry and finance invited him to associate himself with them. Mr. Miller, ac- cording to close friends, took this at- titude: = “These offers are generous and well meant, but they never were made to Roswell Miller, before his marriage to Margaret Carnegie, and therefore Imust believe they would not be made to him now if it were not for his marriage.’ a Future Embarrassment. “If I were to enter into such asso- ciations, the time inevitably would come when I would be embarrassed by passing in some manner on my wife's investments, through influence, advice or otherwise. j “I never was a fortune hunter. I married Miss Carnegie for love, not for money. Her father with his great foresight placed sufficient safeguards around his daughtetr’s inheritance. And I am content to be my. wife’s husband, without’ being ‘her business Manager.” + Teaching Ambition. Besides, Miller’s lifelong ambition has been to teach. “Teaching,” he has said, “is one of the greatest service a-man can per- form. Mr. Carnegie was a great or- ganizer of industry, a great philan- thropist, but his greatest work war in the teaching he did indirectly through the establishment of libraries and directly. through his own writ- ings.” st oe E So he applied for a position at New York university. s ‘No title ‘goes with: that job. He has a flat-top desk in the room of a professor. ach morning he drives to work in a roadster from the $250,- 000 mansion off Fitth avenue in whick the Millers and Mrs. Carnegie live. Students Like Him. “He's a humdinger,” says one of his’ students. “When we see him coming along, we pile on the running board of his car, and he’s glad to give us a lift. He’s surely popular-with all the fellows.” 4 Miller is not much older than some of his students, being 27. He is the son of the late president of the Chi- cago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad, who left $700,000 to his wife and three children. The war interrupted his studies at Princeton. Her served in-the ambu- lance service in France and later as an ensign in the navy. After the war he resumed his studies, receiving his degree last June. Influenza, Malaria and Tuberculosis Raging In Albania Triana, Albania, March 29.—Tuber- culosis, malaria and influenza are in- creasing alarmingly in Albania. The death-rate is mounting daily. Waole towns and villages are affected. There is little medicine to be had. There are only a dozen doctors to minister to several hundred thousand persons. The Italians and the members of the American Red Cross are assisting the - local’ authorities in fighting the epi- demic, There ate neither hospitals nor nurses in Albania. Those who prac- tice medicine are principally pharma- cists and druggists with little or no medical training. When the Moham- medan members of the communty fall ill, little effort is made at treatment. “It is the will of Allah,” says the fa- talistie Moslem and he calmly awaits the end.

AR eee, leys, is rank with malaria and infec- tious diseases. The damp, cold win- ter, poorly constructed houses and bad, food have given tuberculpsis a firm foothold throughout the country. Diseases incident to malnutrition, filth neglect and bad water are everywhere prevalent. ‘Much of all this is the result: of ten years of continuous war.’ ‘The Al- banians were poor in 1913. They have grown poorer with each passing year. Tong privation, lack of nourishment, medicine and care have brought them to @ point of great misery and im- poverishment. : LEGION POSTS TO: TAKE CHARGE OF MEMORIAL DAY Indianapolis, .Ind.,.. March 29.—- Graves .of American soldiers, sailors and: marines, who died in the world war, will be visited on Memorial Day by comrades in the American Legion both at home and abroad, according to plans announced at Legion na- tional headquarters. Legion posts in every community in America will take charge of Memorial Day ceremonies and decorate the graves of all veterans, it was said. While ‘thousands of communities throughout this country are honoring the soldier dead in their midst, the distant graves in France, England, Italy and Russia\will not he neglected. It has been the custom of Legion national headquarters for the last two years to collect a fund from the 11,000 posts for this purpose. .Com- ,mittees are established to take charge of the funds in France and England, composed largely of Legion men, act- ing in conjunction with similar bodies of officials and citizens of the various foreign countries. Posts in all Buro- pean countries, cooperating with these committees, will see that the grave of every American who per- ished overseas while in the service is decorated, it was said. In order to prevent confusion and duplication of effort in decorating graves in this country on Memorial Day, the Legion has asked all pésts to oragnize a Central Graves Registra- tion Bureau in every county for the purpose~of properly recording graves of veterans of all wars and assigning such graves to the individual posts for proper decoration: Rocks Ahead For South Australia? | Sidney, N.

VIENNA GIRLS SHOULDN’T READ MARRIAGE ADS * Vienna, Mar., 29.—Vienna girls are being warned not to be misled by mar- riage advertisements from America. Half dozen alleged cases of deception that are cited by Der Morgan which asserts tltey are “but few out of hun dreds” in which Austrian women have gone to America to marry. ° One ‘case described is that of a daughter of a “high official” who an- swered an advertisement in a Vienna paper stating that an engineer in Chi- cago desired to.wed a pretty educated Viennese. In German the word engi- ‘neey always means a professional title and is never applicd, to mechanics. When she arrived she found the man job artd the girl’s parents had ‘to sacri- fice even their Lousehold goods to send her money to return. Another instance is recited in which the. advertisement contained the phrase “An American (dark) wishes to marry, etc.” The prospective groom was a negro. Usually, says the paper, the adver- tisements describe the man as earn- ing so many million crowns a month which the woman finds to mean vir- tually nothing in American standards. ~ | 113304 © DARE LOVED WANTS GON ROVHER-BETER * : @ SED JAR MEE’ @® SONWILROW WOOD © I RANSOM JOHHN © WHEN ALLY RACE ing, Andrew Volstead, Gilbert paper to five of your, friends. ont’s name, Warren Harding.
