A CHICAGO WOMAN.
ONE OF THE'rMOST' BRILLIANT OF
HER sex EAST on weer. .
Mrs. Potter Palmerflas Tact and is in
Nowlse “New.” She Was Large'ly In-
strumental in Ito-establishing Her Hus-
band’s Fortunes After the Great Fire.
In a time when most of the conspicu-
ous Women of the country have been
trying to shape for themselves man-
like careers, Mrs. Potter Palmer’s ca-
reer has been being first a woman and
everything womanly.
She has approached every problem .
from the woman’s point of view, she
has fought her battles .with Woman’s
weapons. Her signal successes have
made her the great stumbling-block in
the way of the “advanced” members
of 'her sex, who urge discarding their"
natural tools to make a shift with the
methods and weapons of men.
Before this remarkable woman mar-
ried Potter Palmer, in 1871, her name
was Bertha Honors. She came of a
distinguished French' Creole family
that had settled in Kentucky.
[(71 r
’/ \Kl'“ ~- :
I @333?! /
MRS. POTTER PALMER.
Mrs. Palmer first showed evidence of
her commanding spirit, it is said, in the
case of her husband, who was pros-
trated by his loss in the Chicago
fire. When the great blaze began
shew the wife of a man with a rent-
roll of $200,000 a year. When it had
burned itself out Potter Palmer owed
$15,000 for taxes which he couldn’t
pay. _
Thosewho claim to know say that it
was Mrs. Palmer, then hardly more
than a girl, who succeeded in mort-
gaging the ash-covered real estate for
enough to begin the fight over again.
As soon as Potter Palmer took heart
once more it did not take him long to
pile up another great fortune, and
much of the new Chicago is a monu-
ment to his energy.
Mrs. Palmer’s unerring tact, her
woman’s shrewdness and quickness of
intuition, her keen and well-balanced
mind, her personal charm as much as
her great wealth have made her for
many years the leader in the develop-
ment of a polite and plutocratic so-
ciety in Chicago. Her marked ability
in the management of charities "and
whatever kind of woman’s work
she took hold of, united with the
wealth and prominence of her husband,
made her selection as President of the
Board of Lady Managers of the CO-
lumbian Exhibition a natural one.
Her success in shedding sweetness
and light upon the ofttimes cloudy
sessions of an executive council of rep-
resentative “ advanced” women gave
her a national prominence at once.
But that was not all. She entertained
that difficult and uncompromising
royal personage, the Spanish Infanta'
Eu-lalia, and gained the distinction of
being the only woman in America who
could get on with her.-
Since the fair she has travelled much
abroad, and has been received with
distinction at the Court of Italy and at
the Vatican as representative in an
almost official sense of the woman of
America. '
Lack of Precise Knowledge.
We laugh at rthe vague ideas of
America entertained by our English
cousins; but how many bright Ameri-
can youth, who are fresh from their
geographies, could name rthe different
counties in England; or could tell
whether Leeds and Birmingham were .
in York or Lincolnshire, Herbs or
Kent? Yet very likely these very same
youth would laugh longand loud it an
English cousin should locate Boston
in Missouri or St. , Louis in Texas.
When we reach the Antipodes, many.
Americans carry a still more startling
and varied stock of misinformation.
How many realize that it is a five
days’ journey across the channel that
separates New Zealand from Austra-
lia, the two great islands of the Aus
tralasian empiré? How many know
much about the political situation of
Victoria and New South .Wales, of
Queensland and South Australia?
How many realize that it is a rail-
way journey of two thousand miles
between Adelaide and Brisbane, and
that this little strip of coast constitutes
largely the inhabited portion of the
island continent? '
How a Ship’s Speed 13' Found.
'A ship’s rate is found by 21 line
about nine hundred feet long, on a
reel having one end fastened to arthin,
setor-shaped piece of wood called a
log. The sweet the log is loaded to
make it stay vertical when tossed into
the see. It then remains in the same
place in the water. while the line is
unwinding from the reel. The line is
divided into equal parts of fifty feet
each, called knots, or one one-hundred
and twentieth of 9. nautical mile, Since - »
a. half minute has the same ratio to
an hour that a knot has to a nautical
mile, the ship runs an hour as it runs
knots in half «a minute. If, say, nine
teen knots pass in half a minute, the
vessel is then running at the rate of
nineteen miles an hour. ‘

MlLLlONAlRE HUNTINGTON TELLS,
WHAT HE WOULD 00.
He Would Spend Less Than He Earned.
No Matter 'What His Seeming Necessi-
ties Were, “And Before Long I Would
Be Ahead Again."
The New York Journal recently in-
terviewed a laborer and a rich man to
ascertain what each would do were he
in the financial position of the other.
Collie P. Huntington, millionaire and
railroad magnate, told what he did
.when he was poor and what he would
do a sin.
“ hat would I do if I were a laborer
at $1.75 a day,” queried Mr. Hunting-
ton.
little lessthan I made. “If_.I only made
fifty cents a. day I wouldn’t spend it all,
no matter what my necessities were.
That is the foundation on which every
man’s life should be built. I have never
spent as much as I made. Even when
I worked on a farm at wages aggregat-
man you tell me of makes in a day. I
didn’t spend it all, I put by something.
Today it is the same, and if to-morrow
I should lose every dollar I have in the
world I’d begin on that basis again, and
before very long, I .would be ahead
again- ThemI. wouldn’t give up at -42.
I have lived about three quarters of a
century to-day, but if tomorrow I had
to start all over again I shouldn’t let
myself feel that my age was a bar to
success. Thatisthe trouble with most
men; they dust with the tide, and after
a time they get so strongly into the
habit of doing this that they think they
have no chance—they are too old! No-
body is ever too old to strive for success
and independence. '
“Of coure,” Mr. Huntington went on,
“it is a. difficult matter to put yourself
in another man’s place. but there are
certain fundamental rules that I would
follow whether I were making $1.75 a
day or a thousand times that much. I
would out 01f my small vices. If 'I
could 'not get the pleasure that Icraved
with my income, I’d take what I could
get. I’ll live plainly; in fact, [do live
today as plainly as any man can. I
could live on fifty cents a. day and not
starve or feel the want of food.
.“I would always hold on one job un-
til I saw another and a better one ahead,
and I would do the best that I could
whenever the place in which I found
myself. I would never be content to
remain anywhere except at the t0p or
near it, but at the same time I would
keep my head steady and not run after
shadows. It is not much money—$1.75
a day—but if a man is only constituted
that way he may get as much satisfac-.
tion out of it as many men get out of
millions. After all, money is not every-
thing, though many people think other-
wise. Money Iis the only thing that you
can do nothing with by itself.
“I would seek to get as much content-
ment out of life on $1.75 a. day as I do
now. My pleasures would be in pro-
portion. What they would be I cannot
say. But, above all, I would never get
out of work or money. In all my work-
and very poor—I have never known the
want of money, because I have always
had more than I spent,~and I always
made it a rule not to want anything I
could not afford. In that way I got a.
little worry—financial worry.
“Any man can succeed,” insisted Mr.
Huntington, “who makes up his mind
to. This $1.75 workingman can suc-
ceed, even now, if he will go about it
right, and I would go about it right
were I in his place}?
He then told a. story.
trate this point.
“Away back in ’49," he said, “I knew
a man who had every prospect of suc-
‘cess. To. day he is a barkeeper in San
Francisco, or he was when I was there
last. We were pretty friendly, and I
used to let him have 81,000, then $2,000
and up to $5,000 a. month to clear up his
It was to illus-
tired of that, and refused to let him
have any more. He failed, as I felt he
would do sooner or later. Then he said
to me: I
“How is it that I, who works as hard
and perhaps harder than you, can’t suc-
seed. while you are reputed to be worth
millions?”
"Well,” I said, “I see you going into
:ertain places where they sell wine at
810 or $20 a bottle. You take your cus-
tomers there. Well, I don’t do that sort
of thing, and, moreover, I wOuldn’t
have customers who did. I wouldn’t
trust them.
“That man,” he continued, “didn’t
agree with me, and to-day, he keeps
bar. If I were in Mr. Davis’s shoes‘ I’d
do in my small way just as I advised.
the San Francisco man. I would leada
decent, straight, moral, honest life, do
what was right, right in my own mind,
and I’d soonstopichipping bricks.”

LEADVILLE, Colo~., . Sept. ‘26.—Under the
latest orders of General Brooks thls'city
was today placed under'the control (if a
provost guard or military police force.
The miners from Joplin, MO” numbering
about 100 men, who arrived here have
been engaged to work in the Marian,

Small Hopes company, of which S. W.
Mudd is manager. The Emmet Ihtfibeeu
working right along with a small-force of
nonunion men. The other two mines
named will be started up at once under a
strong guard.
Great pressure has been brought to bear-
upon Edward Boyce, president of the Fed-
oration of Miners, to induce him to‘ use
his influence with the Leadville Miners’
union to call the strike off. ‘He refused
and said that not 5 per cent of the mem-
bers ’of the union would vote to call the
strike off. .
An attempt will be made to have the ac
cused men admitted to bail. Judge Owens
will probably grant the application. It is
expected that General Brooks will have
them immediately rearrestcd. They may
then maintain open writs of habeas corpus.
Should General Brooks ignore such writs
he will~be cited for contempt of court, and
the governor’s report to place the com-
munity und'er military rule will be re-
viewed in court. The case is likely to
reach the supreme court on a writ of error.
