Co-Operation Wins

It la to be hoped that In the hurly-burly of the Fall Festival that one thing will not be overlooked by those who coma from the surrounding country. , .' That Is the exhibit from Purdue university. You win remember that we have already mentioned the connection that this Fall Festival has with the Short Coarse for farmers to be held here in February. The same men are behind this movement. '

Today men who are working out the problem of how to raise two ears of corn where their fathers raised one have to find out the way to do it. There is no God-given, fate-Sent way by which a man may deduce from his Inner consciousness the formula for raising good corn and wheat In Indiana the average for corn per acre Is less than forty bushels. Wheat is less than thirteen. Yet you can raise twice the amount you, the average man.

If this Fall Festival does not send new Inspiration Into the minds of those who are raising crops of all sorts we shall be mistaken and disappointed. . , You men. right here In Richmod. merchants, manufacturers and workmen ought to start to find out what tbia means to you. You know, or ought to know that the farmer who is successful Is the producer who puts money Into the banks, this In turn Is loaned to all the businesses in this vicinity. ' ' ' There Is real prosperity. To wander from the question It would be Interesting to know what the banks of this town have given toward the Fall Festival they probably have been generous in their contributions but they will get their money back If the farmer sees his opportunity at thla Fall Festival. And so we are not talking about a thin and ethereal thing when we mention this matter of what cooperation means. Richmond cannot prosper without the farmer and Richmond not only can. but Is helping the farmer recognizing that mutual gain of working together.

In 'this way also the city of Richmond wants to help the whole community. ( Men In small lowns have not found that the Fall Festival has Injured their trade If they have this will be new Information. It It were traced back It would be found that the Fall Festival Richmond does not depend on taking trade away from other towns but that it Is a means of creating wealth by co-operation.

For three years this paper has preached the gospel of co-operation and has worked In and out of the columns of the Palladium . to bring about a general state of good feeling and cooperation. That the thing has succeeded we do not take upon us as our work we hope we have helped but It Is contrary to the object we hoped to see to claim a greater share than others who have done the same thing. This, however gives uS a peculiar Interest In the work which can be done right here in Wayne county. This fall should be a fresh beginning. Tho Short Course for farmers in February Is another but can't we all begin now and keep on getting together for the common good?

Items Gathered In From Far and Near The West Point Silence. From the Jersey City Journal. Those West Point cadets who re sorted to the "silence treatment" are in a good way of learning that the first duty of a soldier Is obedience. From Charleston News and Courier. Of course those West Point cadets are a miserable lot oi villains, ana should "be hanged, drawn and quarter ed, but before they are turned over to the executioner we wish they would tell us how to do it. From the Boston Advertiser. The West Point cadets may now ap ply the "silence" to the foot ball season, le is the newest of the new rules. From the Omaha Bee. Those West Point cadets are showng the force of concerted action. which is one of the points in army efficiency. From the Boston Herald. The sulky West Point cadets win hardly carry their contumacy beyond the line of foot ball prohibition. From the Syracuse 'Herald. Insurgency certainly is in the air. Now the entire, corps of West Point cadets is under arrest for administering the "silence" to an instructor. The Sultan of Sulu. From the Chicago News. In the circumstances the Sultan of Sulu will not have to stop off In Ne vada and lose half a dosen wives. From the Buffalo Express. As the 8ultan of Sulu did not bring his pearls here to be sold, the pur pose of his visit may be to aak an In crease of salary. From Columbus Evening Dispatach. The esteemed Sultan of Sulu took pains soon after landing to declare with emphasis that he now has but one wife and that he has come to the conclusion that more than that Is too much trouble. The sultan might have put the matter a little more dlplomt ically, don't you think. From the Augusta Herald. ' The Sultan of Sulu told New York reporters that he now has but one wife, but he refused to tell them what disposition he had made of the rest. Wonder If they practice cannibalism la his country? From the Milwaukee Journal The 8ultan of Sulu has paid his re spects to his overlord, the president. Westward the course of empire takes Us way.

Heart to Heart

Talks. By EDWIN A. NYE. . - CopyrttM. 1908. bf Edwtn A. Nyt stuwmrs tail. Rowdy la a mountain dog. He Is lacking the appendage that usually attaches to dogs. His tail sticks straight out from bis body only about two inches all toU. It looks aa if the remainder bad been cut off. when Rowdy wasn't looking in that direction, V The fact Is he was born with the cut-off tall. More than that. Rowdy's tail was cut off before he wss born! Which Is to say. his great-grand' father's and great-grandmother's tails were cut off by irreverent hands for I generations back, so that after a time the docs of Rowdv's tribe got in the habit of being born with two inch tails. And It Is also true that If Rowdy's children's two Inch tails were cut off for several generations his lineal descendants would be born Into the world tailless. And thereby hangs a tale. Nature's ways may be modified my man. Nature is subject to man, who can change the current ot her opera tions.' Use and habit do wonders. Darwin tells us that at first the eagle could not fly, but by the use of its wings and the habit of trying, bequeathing the desire and the habit to its descendants, the day finally came when, through the processes of evo lution, the first eagle flew. So ot man's use and habit. We are told that primitive man aim ed his weapon with his right hand at the left breast of his enemy to reach the heart of bis foe. That habit, long continued and strengthened by use in man's early and crude Industry, made man right handed. The left handed man Is a lapse bf nature. Were we to use only one leg for gen erations by and by babies would be born with "one leg shorter than It really ought to be." And It mothers continue to squeeze their waists some day babies will be born in the shape of wasps. , v And what Is true of the body Is true ot the mind. You can cut off the Imagination, like Rowdy's tall, by long disuse ot It. . You can strengthen any mind faculty by use or let it dwindle by disuse and habit and pass it on to your children's children. Body and soul, you are responsible to the unborn. Which Is a big lesson to hang on to Rowdy?, two .Inch JalL WESTERN EXTRAVAGANCE. The Denver Post has been conduct ing a ballot to find out who is the best dressed man In Denver. Ehleu! And also piffle! - Denver is a virile town where. It any where, men should be distinguished for the brains they use, the things they do. the hearts they carry In their bosoms, rather than for . the clothes they wear. If the ballot were to 'decide who Is the greatest orator, best writer, ablest civil engineer, sanest merchant, most competent architect or the citizen with most civic pride the contest would be worth while. But " O tempore! O mores! The town talk was all about the local Freddie Gebharts and Harry Lehrs, golf and polo habitues who affect mon ogrammed underwear and Imported socks. Has Denver forgotten the guffaw that went the country over when Sen ator Tabor, "who built the opera bouse, you know," showed his eighteen dollar nightgown on a Pullman? His sybaritic splurge was scarcely a circumstance to be compared with the reported costumes of Denver's Bean Brummels. :' Neatness, cleanliness and good taste in dress are not without merit In a man; but, shades of Carlyle, shirts at $100 the half dozen, pajamas at $100 the dozen, silk hose at $144 the dozen, shoes at $26 each and bats at $20 apiece, all Imported or -specially man nfactured, reveal neither good taste nor good sense. Such expenditures spell extrava gance, and extravagance is the crying sin of the day. . Thousand dollar outfits are out ot place In a city where worthy men hare not where to lay their heads, where women walk the streets from poverty and where little children go supperless to bed. Happily for us, the vulgar rich of our cities constitute only the scum and net the substance ot our social fabric. Half of our people take for their Ideal man Abraham Lincoln and the other half Thomas Jefferson.

Three Cardinals to Take Part in Consecration of Cathedral

I (American News Service.) New York. Oct. 5. With princes of 1 the church, bishops, ; monsignorl : and scores of priests as active participants or interested spectators in the impres sive ceremonials of a solemn pontiflclal mass, of which Cardinal Gibbons was the celebrant, the three days' ceremonies attending the consecration of St- Patrick's Cathedral began this morning. The ceremonies brought together an assemblage of prelates of the church only a little less notable than that which marked the sessions of the re cent Eucharistlc congress in Montreal. Heading the list of participants were Cardinal Vannutelli. Papal Legate; Cardinal Logue, Primate of Ireland, and Cardinal Gibbons of Baltimore. Among the many other distinguished prelates were Archbishops Farley of New York, O'Connell of Boston, Ryan ot Philadelphia, Glennon of St. Louie and numerous bishops from various perts of the United States and Can ada. : The ceremonies began with the con secration at 6 o'clock this' morning. One thousand persons composed the procession, which moved around the great cathedral before taking part In the solemn service. The procession was headed by acolytes, choristers and the diocesan clergy, who were followed by the monsignorl, bishops, archbishops and cardinals, all clad in tne gorgeous vestments ot tneir re spective offices. The officers of the mass brought up the rear, headed by the archiespicopal cross bearer. The great cathedral had been elab orately decorated for the exercises of the week. The Fifth avenue front of the stately edifice was made bright by countless yards of bunting of the papal colors, purple and white, which was tastefully festooned above the large entrances. The pulpits, railings and other parts of the Interior were hung with laurel wreaths. The altar itself was draped in red. A detail of one hundred police was required to keep in check the enor mous crowds that congregated in the vicinity of the cathedral almost at dawn of day, anxious to obtain at least a glimpse of the eminent participants in the ceremonies, even though deprived of the opportunity to witness the ceremony Itself. St. Patrick's has a seating capacity ot 15,000, but it Is estimated that nearly 20.000 persons were crowded into the spacious edifice, being admitted only by ticket. In the congregation were many

Famous A stor Family Reminded

of Its Quite BY FRANCIS PHILLIPS. New York, Oct. 5. To the members of the Astor family there is an unpleasant suggestion of their humble commercial origin in the recent mi gration of a large number of the wholesale furriers of the city to West 26th street, where the spacious offices of that largest of American landed estates are located. The real estate owned by the Astor family on Man hattan Island is appraised on the tax books of the city at more than $400,000,000, and at a fair market value Is easily worth half as much again.. The foundation of this enormous fortune was laid by the original John Jacob Astor, a German peasant's son. who began by peddling furs from house to bouse in and about New York, and subsequently established the Astoria Fur company. With an intuition which has not been lacking In his progeny. he invested in real estate In what was then the sparsely settled section beyond the city, but which Is now ' in the heart of the business - district This practice of anticipating the northerly development of the city has been consistently followed by eaeh generation of the family, resulting In the acquisition of what is probably the most valuable landed estate in the . world. Through Its immense wealth and its consequent Importance in the community the family has dominated New York society for half a century- Allusion to Its humble orig in is distasteful to its members natur ally. On this subject they are peculiarly sensitive, and nothing quite so much gets on their nerves as the oc casional reference to it by Insurgent society editors and reporters, who find GOLOSOPRO HEARD FROM K Udy VTfc Urn is Gditra Jtfas la tzz ecsres cr fnzz fer toed, Tte Vtesa's Teric Goldsboro.

Cardinal Gibbons officiated at the high pontifical mass, which began at 11 o'clock and was designed to be the most important and imposing of all the functions ot the three days program. Cardinals Vannutelli and Logue were seated in the sanctuary, where episcopal thrones, elaborately draped had been arranged on either side. Archbishop Faiconlo, Archbishop Glennon. who presches the consecration sermon; Bishop Gabriels of. Ogdensburg. Bishop Beaven of Springfield. Mass.. Bi-hop McDonnell of Brooklyn. Bishop Flttmoris of Erie, Bishop Monaghan of Wilmington, and the many other visiting prelates were seated on either side of the two thrones, while the parish priests occupied seats reserved for them in the body of the church. The music at the mass was especially fine, being rendered with orchestral accompaniment and a large choir. The mass music of J. C. Ungerer was given complete for the first time. A first performance was also given of the offertory. "Jerusalem, Surge." by P. A. Yon, organist of St Francis Xavier church in this city. After the pontifical mass the clergy proceeded to the Diocesan House in Madison avenue, where dinner was served. The noted prelates from Europe were guests of honor at this function and were greeted with eloquent addresses delivered by the venerable Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop Faiconlo. Archbishop Farley and others. Solemn pontifical vespers, with Archbishop Faiconlo presiding and Archbishop . Hickey ot Rochester preaching the sermon, close the first day of the celebration this evening. Special stress will be laid upon tomorrow's services, at which a solemn pontifical mass will be given in the cathedral tor all the Roman Catholic children of the metropolis. This mass will take place at 10 o'clock In the morning. The responses of the mass will be sung by 6,000 ot the children of the parochial schools of the diocese and children will fill the pews ot the big cathedral to hear the mass chant ed. This grand mass of thanksgiving for the children will be the only event of tomorrow. The following day the consecration ceremonies will close with religious exercises during the day and a reception at the Catholic club In the evening in honor of the visiting prelates. Humble Origin a relish in advertising the fact from time to time.1 within tne last few months halt a dozen large office buildings have been built in the block on which the estate's office Is maintained, and into them have flocked half of the Russian and Polish merchants of the city engaged in selling furs. These buildings with their large stock of raw skins are the dally lure of hundreds of bewhiskered small manufacturers and peripatetic dealers who stand out on the sidewalk and while gazing speculatively across the street at the Astor office, wonder it Dame Fortune will be as good to them as it was to their distinguished predecessor in the ur vending busi ness, visitors to tne Astor onice, .ob serving the predisposition shown tor the block by this class, cannot help thinking from what this vast estate was evolved. The suggestion forced home on all who trek that way has so jarred the family pride that It Is said it is considering the advisability of movlng'the office elsewhere. Allied by blood and marriage to some of the richest aad best known families in town, Mrs. Alexander Kirkland Taylor : great granddaughter of De Witt Clinton, once governor of New . York, was saved from eviction this week, through the generosity of an unknown Samaritan, said to be a banker, who sent her $50. With two delicate daughters, the woman has been living for several weeks In a furnished room in one of the shabby side streets on the lower west side. Before going there she had been occupying a windowless room in an attic some blocks distant Unable to pay the small rent charged her for this IV
