THE WASHINGTON BEb, COMMERCIAL PROFESSIONS. Bea of Money Who Labor to Tarr Thtir Business into Institutions of Usefalness. The truth is, we hear too about the comm fessions. There are men who vulgar- ize them all, no doubt, and who sell their craft t for a mess-of mil- lions, for there have always been such men, says World’s Work. But there is another tendency of our time that is far stronger than the tendency to get we it is the ten- dency to e to build, and much reialism of the pro- to maintain institutions—institu- tions of any wu ul and honorable kind. Men give themselves in the most unselfish way to build up colleges and universities, hospitals, museums, clubs, associations for the advance- ment of trades and professions, libra- ries—there is no end of the list. Men labor to turn their business into insti- tutions. Many founders of great com- mercial houses work for their honor- able perpetuity. Many manufacturers plan their fac- tories so as to give them an institu- tional character and valme. The naturally conservative tendency of an active people is toward institution building. Strong men in almost every department of work show such a ten- dency, often as a dominant trait of character, and this is a stronger mo- tive than the mere wish to be rich. The rich man who stands alone, who has not established something, who is not identified with some great in- stitution, commercial or public, is not envied. ikely to be pitied. He is more PERILS OF THE TRAPPERS. How the Famous Scott and Many Oth- ers Weut to Their Deaths on the Platte Rivee. In the United States the free hunt- ers approach the mountains by three | main routes. It was coming down the Platte that poor Scott’s canoe was overturned, his powder lost and his rifle rendered useless, relates Outing. Game had retreated to the mountains with spring’s advance. not ripe by the time trappers were descending with their winter’s hunt. Scott and his famishing men could not find edible roots. Each day Scott weakened. There was no food. Final- ly Seott had strength to go no further. His men had found tracks of some other hunting party far to the fore. They thought that in any case he could not live. What ought they to do? Hang back and starve with him, or hasten forwerd while they had strength to the party whose tracks they had espied. On pretense of seek- ing roots, they deserted the helpless man. ‘he next spring when these same hunters went up the Platte they found the skeletor of poor Scott 60 miles from the place where they had left him. The terror that spurred the emaciated man to drag himself all this weary distance can barely be con- ceived; but such were the fearful odds taken by every free trapper who went up the Platte, aeross the parched plains or to the headwaters of the Missouri. VENEZUELA IS DECAYING. German Traveler States That Mixed Negroes and Indians Are Get- ting an Upper Hand. Dr. Passarge, the noted traveler, who has just returned from Vene- zuela, says, according to a Berlin re- port: “President Castro is a full-blooded Indian and an energetic man without political wisdom. He rose suddenly from magistrate of a remote village at the foot of the Andes to the presi- dency, and his rapid rise made him overconfident. “The present situation is due to two facts: Germany suddenly sus- pended the pressure of the early part of the war, which diminished the re- spect in which she was held by Presi- dent Castro; secondly, the attitude of the officials of the great Venezue- lan railroad President Cas- tro. Germ: t principle must be not tor ‘le in the internal af- fairs of Vene But the railroad officials forgot t toward Dr. Passarge d drifting to cer lowir n decay and as fol- dily downward course since Gen. Blanco’s presidency. The color question plays an important role in political tendencies. The mixed negroes and. Indians, ete., are getting an upper hand in society and polities.

In short, they continue to know what they are sbout. The dark chil- dren are probably of Celtic—that is to say, Gallie—origin. The blood comes with a rush to their brains, and they grow confused, splutter and break down. If they could only. be aught to remain silent for a few moments they would be al! the better for this rush, as the confusion would have passed away, leaving only stimulated mental organs. Finally, on the subject of hair, says’ a writer in Truth, I am sorry to say that the red-headed boys and girls ia the Lille schools are at the bottomin everything, save in good conduct, marks. Nor are they remarkable for good health. The dark boys behave better than the auburn or the fair, and are more sensitive to praise or blame, CAMEL A CURIOSITY. One with Two Humps Creates a Sen- aation Among the People of Cairo, Egypt. phlegmatic—race not grow at once stand up to re One would hardly expect to hear of a camel being an object of public at- { traction in Egypt. That such is the case, however, is vouched for by the Egyptian Gazette. “The ship of the desert,” or the one-humped drome- dary, is very common in the streets of Cairo and other parts of the Nile country, but when the zoological gar- den at Ghizeh secured a specimen of the two-humped Bactrian camel there | was indeed a sensation. The double-decked ship of the des- ert was the most interesting animal in the menagerie to the native Egyp- tian who had been familiar all his life with the one-humped variety. Strange as it may seem, this particu- lar specimen was bred and secured from the Rotterdam zoological gar- dens, where the well-known Swiss nav- uralist, Dr. Buettikofer, is rearing the species with success. What the dromedary is to Sahara’s parched sands, says the Philadelphia Record, the Bactrian camel is te the dreary stretches of Asia. As e dromedary may be likened to the swift and safe passenger ship, so may the patient Bactrian beast be referrerd to as the slower but al! the more impor- tant deeply laden merchantman, for eenturies on generation after generation, these patient crea- tures have been transporting the | wealth of China, farther India and the orient generally to Russia and thence throughout the occident. ENGLAND’S GREAT BACHELORS, centuries, Four Leading Men of the British Kingdom Are Unmarried at Middle Age. This is the age of bachelors in Eng- tand. The women are discussing with seen interest the fact that four of their great men are unmarried. Arthur Bal- our is a bachelor, and indeed the first bache'or to become premier since the time of William Pitt. Lord K ener, England’s most not- able soldier, and Lord Milner, her most prominent administrator, are both un- married. Completing the notable four is the bishop of London, who is not far from being the most prominent man in the cbureh. a The men on the other side, says the Philadelphia North Amer! , are de- | claring that France “has long been cursed with petticoat influence in poli- ! has had some ex- ue of women be- the war office.” They believe t he triumph of the fou t bac points to a quiet and effective revolt of man.” hind the scene Exeyptian Papyri.
