r eaerai omciais mnicago nave caugui me leaders of a ring that ,has mulcted the' foreign born . of, that city, of - millions of dollars. ; The old promise of a fortune" from an investment 'of only

a few dollars. Was the bait that lured the unfortunate Slavs.' Poles and Lithuanians to give up

their hard earned and hard saved dollars' to the

swindlers. ', " '' The" WrT and women' of "Little Bohemia'

who turned overl their savings to them for investment were led to believe that the tax stamps on the back of certain- documents proved that the government was back of all the dealings. ' ,, Ordinarily the public wastes little sympathy on men and women who invest in get rich quick schemes. It believes that a campaign of education waged for many years should have enlightened them sufficiently against expecting something for nothing. ; s But the last expose, in Chicago of Ponzi methods to realize thousands on the investment of a few dollars has another aspect, which .enlists

sympathy for those who were misguided by the oily tongues of the rogues.

Virtually all the victims of the swindlers are foreign born, persons who are just beginning to become acquainted with our institutions and our national life. The effect of the loss of all their savings on their minds will not be a reassuring

one. One Chicago newspaper in describing the reaction says: "From an extreme and childish trust in 'men and things,' the pendulum has swung overly far back, with force. These creditors trust no one; they doubt officials; they. fear to open doors more than half an inch ; they parry question with question, in an incoherent fashion." Or, in other words, their faith in the integrity of men has been shaken to the foundation. They believe every man is a crook and has designs on

their money. They will give no credence to even

an honorable enterprise.

It will be many years before these person-?

will give their confidence to others or believe the

reports of fortunes made honestly and by virtue

of intelligent savings in 'companies that are ably and honestly managed. Besides leaving hundreds with wrong conceptions of the integrity of business institutions, the operations of the Chicago Ponzis have reduced some of them to an abject point of poverty. The little money which they had saved,

dime by dime, to buy provisions in dull seasons )

or to provide for medical attention, is gone for

ever. Many of them say they will have to begin life anew, and that in a season when conditions

are depressed.

Who's Who in the Day's News

THE SNOW STORM . God lifted my eyelids and told me that another day was around. I sat up in bed, looked out of my window and saw nothing out of the ordinary, except that the sun was clothed in a deep gray gown. ' But in an hour, I looked up from my working desk and saw an air so feathered that I could not leave. its spectacle. Waves upon waves of snow-flakes swept before my vision. Buildings became mere shadows nearby, and were entirely blotted $ut in the distance. I glanced to the wide street below. Cars could be seen creeping like huge beetles. Horns sounded. Collars and scarfs hugged the throats of the hurrying multitudes. The whizz of the wind grew keener and its volume broadened. In fifteen minutes that which was so business-like and unconcerned had taken on a new activity and a new dress the day had completely changed its clothes. Denser became the ermine coat in the city relieved by canyons of buildings, and in the country woven together with a magnificent lace-work of naked trees, all whitened with crystal. Then the snow stopped. But the wind kept on with, its music like a distant orchestra, or heavy whispers intensified into the thousands, i Later in the day the sun came out from blue and white clouds a ball of fire which added a new gl'w of beauty to the earth like fresh varnish. Snow plows passed up and do ' r the streets. Thousands of shovels scraped the pavements. Sleds shot down the hills and through the valleys. Snowballs were born. Dogs romped and rubbed their noses in the frozen rain of the sky. And far from the city, sleigh bells jingled their jangling tunes, and railroad trains sped across this sheeted panorama. Why is a Snow Storm? Why is beauty? Why is art in the soul? ,
