L—The sale of certain railroads in the Mississippi and | valleys to the Burlington is said brought John W. Gates a profit | llion or more, according to the | Tribune. The deal, in which the Morgan-Hill pool is the purchaser, is said to involve not less than $10,000,000, and the Kansas City, Pe- oria and Chicago Railway is-thereby ab- sorbed into the Northern Securities Com- pany. The lines, Gates .says, were incorpor- ated into 2 minor railroad system only a | few weeks ago, but it became important to the Burlington to obtain that system to fill up a through line from Kansas City to the Atlantic coast. Gates got into the deal by accident. He | bought $100,000 worth of stock in the Guardian Trust Company, an institution promoted by A. E. Stillwell, who then controlled the Kansas City, Pittsburg and Gulf. Gates did not like the manage- ment of the Guardian Trust Company and he was successful in his application for a receiver.

MAKING CHOICE WINES BY MEANS OF MICROBES Germs Obtained From the Dregs of Casks Used for the Genuine Wine. Wine germs which make it possible to duplicate exactly the famous wines of Bordeaux, Burgundy or the Rhine, in New York, Chicago or any other place, are among the latest pets of science, And considering that the wine germ, when carefully handled, has actually been doing the work required of him it is safe say that he has come to stay. ench Sauterne wines, the Rudes- helmer white wine and the Lauciro, made hundreds of miles away from the home of the genuine article and toned up through the “instrumentality of the re- spective. wine ger: have deceived the most expert connoisseurs. Professor Alwood, head of the Myco- logical Laboratory of the Virginia Agri- cuitural Experiment Station, at Blacks- burg, Va., has been conducting some in- teresting ‘experiments with these germs, and has succeeded in thoroughly estab- lishing their umng. ¢ germs are obtained from the dregs of casks which have contained the gen- uine wine, and those of each particular brand are placed for safe keeping in a substance prepared from Japanese isin- glass and fruit julce. In this jelly-like mass the germs soon establish a colony. When needed, sufficient germs may be removed with the tip of a sterflized inum wire into a tube of sterilized fruit | juice. After two or three days the juice will be in full fermentation with plenti- ful effervescence. This process imparts to the wine the exact flavor, houquet and characteristics of the wine from which the girms originally came. In France and Germany these germs are beginning to be cultivated extensive- ly. They can be packed and shipped by mail to any part of the Continent, or even to far distant countries, by putting them into liquid solution in atightly -sealed bottle. Professor Alwood hopes to induce the United States Degarunent of Agricul- ture tc establish a laboratory for the cul- ture and dissemination rted wine germs of rands. lat- of thege im- world-famous % ——— GENTLEMEN OF LEISURE - IN GREATEST DANGER Their Death Rate Exceeds the Aver- age by 132 Per Cent. The mortality of donothingism, accord- ing to insurance statistics, is much higher than that of men with serious oceupa- tions. 1t is well known that in certain ocupations the deathrate is very high, brewers and saloon-keepers, e, g., dying about twice as fast ag the average; and butchers, workers in the building trades, glassworkers, miners, chemists @nd drug- gists being much above the average. Yet, take these and those of all occupations together, and the occupation of the “‘gen- tlemen of liesure” is the hardest on life, reported to exceed that of the average bv 132 per cent.

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 1.—The Grand Jury, Which has been investigating the facts in connection with the attempt to pass a bill through the Municipal Assembly sranting certain franchises to the Subur- ban Street Rallway Company by the al- lcged use of a corruption fund of $135,000, this evening returned its final report and adjourned. Two hours before the report of the Grand Jury was submitted a bench war- rant was issued for Henry Nicolaus, a di- tector of the Suburban Street Raliway Company. It was ordered by the retiring body, which returned an indictment against Nicholaus, charging him with bribery in connection with the Suburban case. Up to a late hour to-night Nico- laus had not been arrested. The indictments which resulted from the Suburban investigation were against ex-Delegate John K. Murrell, ex-Council- man Charles Kratz and Emil Ameysen- burg and Ellis Wainwright, director of the Suburban Company, for bribery, and ex-Delegate Julius Lehmann and Dele- gate Harry Faulkner for perjury. The Grand Jury’s report referring to the sub- Ject of municipal corruption says: Investigation which ade into_the | corrupt wiihod by 3 obtaiued trom L . has proved to us that this form of cocruption is much more genvial then has been supposed, although the Tesort to such practiccs with more or less fre- quency hus been known.

Yet, if the presen: system is to be continued, much can be done to improve the conditions. As the first object of all criminal law is the prevention of crime rather than vengeance upon the criminal, and as it seems that crime of this character can- not be eradicated until the conditions which make it profitable are removed, we suggest that laws be enacted which will' provide that where a municipal legislature is bribed by the party or parties seeking the franchise, to ald in the grant of the franchise, upon his or any one else turning informant and securing the tion would render it that few would engage tion, and none w! - b R otlthont r{rflt risk of punish. e £00d many courtships are by moonshine—and the matrimonial re- sults are apt to be mostly' moonshine.

Admiral. Yacht Club Invitation Is Sent, but Has to 8e Recalled. People of the Capital of Tennesses Enthusiastically Greet the Fam- ° ous Naval Officer and Hear " Numerous Speeches. s Special Dispatch to The Call. HARTFORD, Cona., Feb. 1.—It has just been ,learned that the Hartford Yacht Club, composed of some of the wealthiest men in this vicinity, has indirectly offered an insult to Rear Admiral Winfield Scott Schley. " In March the club is to hold its annual banquet at the Allyn House and the invi- tation committee, it is asserted, had de- cided on Admiral Schley as a guest at din- ner. Negotiations were entered into with the Connecticut Representative in Con- gress to proffer an invitation to the ad- miral. The Representative took the mat- ter up with one of the Maryland Sena- tors, and he in turn was to lay the matter before Admiral Schley when the admiral returned from his trip to Chicago. In the meantime the committee had made known its action to the club mem- bership in general and then trouble be- gan. Governor McLean, it is said, an- nounced he would not receive Admiral Schley if he accepted the committee's in- vitation, and former Governor Bulkley, who is in line to succeed General Haw- ley in the Senate, took the same stand and declared he would refuse to be pres- ent at the dinner if Schley was there. Political Reasons Assigned. The committee, nonplused, immediate- ly went® to work to recall the invitation and communicated with the Connecticut Representative. Although the invitation had not actually reached Admiral Schley’s: hands it was brought to the at- tention of the Maryland Senator, and the insult is considered just as flagrant as though it had been delivered to the admiral. The action of Governor McLean and former Governor Bulkley with other) prominent members, who took the same view of the case, is attributed by those who are familiar with the affair to politi- cal reasons. Governor McLean has just returned from Washington and his visit has been | | | | | | corrupt practically value- RS less and Would be attended by 5o much danger | ¥ARRE, ¥ productive of many rumors, the principal one being to the effect that he is to be- come a member of the Cabinet. In place of the admiral as a guest at the ban- quet, the committee, it is understood, is | considering the names of other naval offi- cers, some of whom have their homes in Hartford and other places in this vicinity. NASHVILLE, Tenn., -Feb. 1.—The first ‘day’s entertainment cf Admiral and Mrs. Bchley in Tennessee's capital culminated to-night in a banquet to the admiral and a brilllamt reception in honor of Mrs, Schley. While the Knights Templar hHad the admiral as their guest at the Duncan Hotel, Mrs. Schley was entertained at the Maxwell Hotel: by the ladies of the patriotic, socleties of the citys: Thousands Give Welcome. At the State Capitol this morning, where the welcome was' formally extended by the State and city, the crush was as great as at the station last night, thou- sands being unable to gain entrance to the Hall of Representatives, where the speeches were delivered. At the State House, Governor and Mrs. McMillin, the Governor's staff, ex-Governor Buchanan and others extended greetings. United States Circuit Judge H. H. Lurton pre- sided in the House of Representatives. Governor McMillin spoke the State's wel- come. Following the Governor were a number of other speakers, Admiral Schley coming last. It was nearly 2 o'clock when Schley concluded his remarks, evoking continued applause, and after a hurried gluncheon at the Duncan the party visited Vander- Lilt University, where Chancellor Kirk- land introduced the admiral, who spoke briefly to the students assembled in the university chapel. From there Fisk Uni- versity, the colored school, was visited. The -admiral spoke at some length and ADVERTISEMENTS.

The woman in authority should study consideration of other people’s feelings. The common scold or the continual fault= finder is, perhaps, the most disagreeable person in the world, not only unhappy herself, but making others so. Scolding, viewed in one light, is really an accomplishment—that is when used for the proper correction of servants and children. If you feel called upon to de- liver a rebuke to a servant make it clear to the offender that y Justified; never lose your temper, calm and dignified, for *‘remember that your bearing much to do with the re- spect that you are held in by those under your authority. Never let a scolding de- generate into nagging, for if you do you lose all claim for respect from the de- Hnquent and the person at fault becomes your critic, and a very scornful eritic at that. - Let all scoldings be gauged by the error, but do not make any one rebuke long drawn out. Give each a hopeful ending. When properly administered a merited scolding quickly bears the fruit of better behavior on the part of the offending one. Many wives have sgolled the good na- ture of their husbands by seizing upon soma fault, trivial perhaps, and constant- ly_dwelling upon it. When a home is made unhappy by a great fault of the husband, if he is worthy of loving and saving, he is more effective- 1y appealed to by tenderness than by de- nunciation or scorn. There are many men fo-day in the wrong path possessed of worthy attributes, who might be saved pany. It was found in a hotel. The by gentle reproof from the error of their thieves were not caught. ways, but are only spurred on their down- ward course by the unrelenting flerceness of a scolding wife. Those who have been saved from evil ways bear witness to the emcacz‘ of the gentle sympathy and loving advice of a true helpmeet. —_—e————— An old Maryland colored man was summoned to court by the controversy over the ownership of a mule. “Who bought the mule?”’ demanded the Judge. “&em Smif en Ah each bought half ob bhim, sah,” responded the old maa. “Where is Smith now?"” “He ain't nebber cum down yit, sah.
