Million a Night for Fun.
A million dollars a night. That’s
,what a proprietor of a Broadway hotel
;ln New York figures that the natives
and visitors spend for revel and pleas
ure. It sounds fanciful, true. But
।here's how he spends the million:
Dinners, $125,000; suppers and wine,
$125,000; theaters, $175,000; cases, flow
,ers and other Incidentals, $300,000.
^lf there isn’t a million spent in the
Broadway district in a night,” he
adds, “what Is left wouldn’t enable a
man to have a steam yacht and a
country home.”

HAIR CAME OUT IN BUNCHES
Route No. 3, Box 20A, Broken Ar
row, Okla. —“My trouble began with
an itching of the scalp of my head.
My scalp at first became covered with
flakes of dandruff which caused me to
scratch and this caused a breaking
out here and there on the scalp. It
became so irritated until I could not
rest at night and my hair would come
out in bunches and became short and
rough.
“Everything I used would cause It
to grow worse and It continued that
way for about three or four years.
While reading the paper I saw the
advertisement of Cuticura Soap and
Ointment and sent for a sample. It
proved so good that I decided to get
some more. I used them as directed
and in two weeks I saw a good ef

it to be. I give all the credit of my

WEAKNESS OF THE UNITED STITES
IN COUNTRIESOFSOUTH AMERICA
John T. Lenfestey Tells of American Commerce on the Southern
Continent—European Nations, Germany, England and
France, Now Get Lion’s Share of the Business-
Three Causes for This Are Named.
Chicago.—John T. Lenfestey has re
turned to Chicago from his tour of the
principal states of South America,
with numberless vivid stories of his
experiences, as shown by his com
ments made to the London correspond
ent of The Daily News and reiterated
here. He was deeply impressed by
the mental alertness and the proud
spirit of the peoples among whom
he traveled. “It is high time,” said
Mr. Lenfestey, “that we people in the
north disabused our minds of the
foolish notion that we can treat South
Americans with indifferent courtesy
and have their friendship. They are
wonderfully responsive to respectful
and cordial treatment. I hope the
American people will grasp this fact
quickly, and I hope that In future no
citizen of the United States, distin
guished or undistinguished, will come
to Central or South America and be
have otherwise than he would behave
if he were traveling among the most
civilized and powerful people of the
world.
“Enough on that point. England has
the same spirit in commerce that ‘No
Flint' Gen. Grey displayed in the con
quest of the West Indies for England.
British capitalists have scouts all over
South America placing money with
South American republics, and English
contractors are on the ground to bring
it back home for railroads, docks, har
bors, battleships, explosives, guns and
factories of all kinds. The Belgians,
French and Germans are not far be
hind, ‘gumshoeing’ around for govern
ments, corporations and individuals
who need money and have security to
offer for its use. In this way they
remove resistance and make it easy
for the manufacturers of their nations
to sell the products they desire to
move.
“Many Americans, looking around
for openings without money, return
home disappointed. North American
salesmen in South America who speak
Spanish are well satisfied with the
success they are enjoying, and North
American goods are given the pref
erence more than ever before. There
are three elements of weakness in the
development of North American com
merce. First, the absence of banking
facilities under North American in
fluence; second, ignorance of the geo-

graphy of South America, and third,
failure to properly fill orders and pack
goods safely so as to insure them
against the rough handling they re
ceive in cargo steamers.
"There are abundant facilities for
carrying freight safely, reasonably and
promptly, if the same care and wis
dom are used in addressing and pack
ing shipments for South America as
for domestic trade in the United
States.
“The commercial instinct for mer
chandising is not very highly devel
oped in South America, but the people
there have much the same nature as
elsewhere, and are reached in much
the same manner, except that they
are more sentimental and like to-be
made love to. The love making they
appreciate most is a display of confi
dence in them manifested by loaning
them money for the purpose of build
ing up and developing the republic
they live under and love.
“South Americans recognize that
public and private debts figure con
spicuously in the older and more suc
cessful countries, and they see no rea
son why the per capita public debt
of their nation and the cities they
live in should not equal that of Eng--
land, Germany or the United States.
Judging by extracts taken from our
North American papers, there are not
so many famous grafters and less
newspaper publicity is given to graft
ing in South America than in the
case with us.
“Spain and Portugal nave sacked
and sapped the Soutn American re
publics for hundreds of years. Last
year 147,000 emigrants from Spain
moved into Argentina to till the soil
thus atoning in part for the injury
wrought by their ancestors to the
South America countries. These poor
people from Spain are mors needed in
Argentina than the rich; they have
succeeded in making ten heads of
wheat grow where one grew before,
and by their labor have been able to
utilize the land, hitherto nonproduc
tive, controlled by the members of the
Buenos Ayres Jockey club.
“Brazil is dominated commercially,
to a great extent, by Germans, who
sit steady in the boat and daily en
large their sphere of influence. They
are ever ready on the ground with
technical knowledge to produce what
ever is wanted, as and when wanted,

packed to arrive in the units wanted,
with customs duty paid and bill ren
dered for delivery where and when
wanted. This is one of the secrets of
their success in Brazil, as they stand
alone among nations for giving such
complete service.
“South American republics are in
much the same position as many un
fortunate manufacturers in North
A,merica who are short of capital,
owing to the inability of their bank
ers to see visions. It is said that In
North America there are only two
bankers who are big enough to rec
ognize good visions and capitalize
them.
“A foreign consul remarked to me
that Europe was supplying the money
and North America was selling the
goods. By that he meant to say that
American influence and commerce
were growing rapidly in South Amer
ica.
"I had a great time wherever I went.
I found the people, native and for
eign, sympathetic and generous of
time, effort and money. I must tell
you about a thrilling ride I had in
Peru. By the way, I found the rail
ways of the west coast, though owned
by the English, operated by Americans
from the top to bottom. It seems to
be clearly recognized that the operat
ing genius oi American railway men,
is unrivaled. At Lima, Peru, express
ing to J. H. Feehan, manager of the
Central railroad of Peru, desire to
gc up the mountain, my request was
immediately granted. For sev
en hours we ascended the grade—a
four per cent one —finally arriving at
our destination, Rio Blancho, 12,300
feet up. The rain clouds were driving
about us and the blue sky gleamed
beautifully through them. The view
was vast and superb. I was ‘tobog
ganed’ back to Lima, 75 miles. That
is to say, a man named Kelley took me
on a handcar and ran down the line
right into the city by gravity. We
made the return trip in two and
a half hours. It w’as rather late when
we started back and for half an hour
at the end of the journey we ran in
HYDROPLANE ATTRACTS SOCIETY WOMEN

Mrs. Payne Whitney of New York is ont of the society women who have
bean attracted by Steve Mac Gordon’s hydroplane, which skims over the water
like a seagull. The picture shows Mrs. Whitney and Mac Gordon just after a
flight

experience In South America.
“I do not feel 1 that one can too
strongly underline the fact that for
most part the American diplomatic
and consular representatives now In
South America are rendering service
of the highest possible value to the
United States. Undoubtedly the fore
most man among these able public
servants is Ambassador E. V. Mor
gan at Rio de Janeiro. He is an ideal
ambassador. His tact, intelligence,
sympathy and Intimate knowledge of
all classes and conditions of society
mark him off as a diplomatist of ex
traordinary ability. So popular is he
both with the public and Brazilian
government that when it came to be
understood that he was at the point of
retiring from the service, the Bra
zilian government specially requested
the Washington government not to
permit him to retire. I say this about
Mr. Morgan and his confreres of both
services because I realize how im
portant it is that the United States
should have In South America men
thoroughly initiated into the life of
those countries. To change a man
like Mr. Morgan at Rio de Janeiro, or
our ambassadors at Montevideo, Bue
nos Ayres, Santiago or Valparaiso
would be a calamity. They all have
won a position that only tact and time
give one and they have spent a great
deal of money over and above the pit
tance allowed by our government.”
ATTACK OLD CHURCH ABUSE
Prominent Englishmen Join to End
Sale of Life Rectorates in Brit-
ish Isle.
London. —The Duke of Rutland,
Earl Fortescue, Lord Hugh Cecil, Sir
Charles Walpole and other prominent
men have organized, at the sugges
tion of the Westminster Gazette, a
movement to rid the Church of Eng
land of the evil of the sale of “ad
vowsons,” the right of presentation
to a church or other ecclesiastical
benefice.
Os the 13,000 benefices In the
United Kingdom more than eleven
hundred are dispensed by the king,
more than seven hundred by the uni
versities, and the rest by either bish
ops and other ecclesiastics, or else
by the nobles, esquires or other pri
vate individuals who own the “liv
ings” in parishes. For centuries it
has been the prerogative of these pri
vate “owners” of parishes to sell the
post of established preacher, which is
literally a life job.
There still remain in England and
Wales about six hundred parishes
where the right of naming the rec
tors is held by private owners, who
sell it the same way as other prop
erty. In these places the parishion
ers possess little, if any, guarantee
that the requirements of religion or
social well-being will be considered
by the patron. The owner has in the
parish pulpit an asset which pro
duces a certain income and creates a
parson’s freehold, and not even the
bishop can prohibit the sale if cer
tain forms be observed.
The present movement is an at
tempt to preserve the spiritual rights
of villagers. For a living worth $1,500
a year a clergyman pays $6,000 down
and he gets a life post. At his death
the place again is sold. When he is
111 he has to hire a substitute or do
without. There is no way to get rid
of him, so long as he commits no crim
inal act.

Accused Official.
New York. —William R. George,
founder of the George Junior Republic,
was exonerated by the board of direct
ors of the National Association of
Junior Republics of the charges
brought against him recently relating
to his alleged treatment of certain
young women members of the Free
ville Republic, in this state. A board
of judges composed of Joseph H.
Choate, Samuel Seabury and Miss Lil
lian D. Wald, to whom the records
of the case had been submitted, found
recently that George had been guilty
of “willful misconduct,” but had not
been swayed “by a desire t^ injure or
abuse” young women. The report of
the special committee and ,the opin
ion of the board of judges were upheld
by the national directors. .

Ancient Stage to Be Used.
A more than usually Interesting dra
matic revival is announced for April
16, when the “Agamemnon” of Aes
chylus will be performed in the an
cient Greek theater of Syracuse.
Nearly 24 centuries have passed
since Hiero I embellished his city with
the theater which tradition attributes
to the architect Democopor Myrilla.
Aeschylus must have . taken refuge
in the court of Hiero very soon after
its completion, and it may be conjec
tured that the great trilogy, which be
gan with the “Agamemnon,” was
often performed on its stage; it is
known that the “Persae" was per
formed there and a work written for
Hiero by Aeschylus, entitled the “Et
neae,” of which no trace remains.—

Caravaggio Picture Found.
An important find has been made in
the art collections of Marchese della
Stufa at France. It is a painting by
Caravaggio, which had been lost sight
of for many years. The painting was
known to connoisseurs through a print
in the Galleria degli Uflzzi.
Sig di Pietro, the secretary of this
gallery, was determined to find the
picture. It was known that in the
year 1700 it was in possession of the
Cerretani family, which is now ex
tinct.
Sig di Pietro, while examining Mar
chese della Stufa’s collection saw the
painting and immediately identified it.
Jhe Uflzzi print is an exact reproduc
tion’ of the picture, which is a typical
Caravaggio. It depicts six youths, one
of whom is playing a violin, one a lute
and one a flute, w'hile two are singing
and one is listening.—New York Sun.
It Is Still Fashionable.
“Pa, what’s poetic justice?”
“The former president of a bache
lor club being married to a woman
who makes him feel that he would
rather lose his job than be late for
dinner furnishes a pretty fair sample
of it.”
A Change.
“Did Caesar’s disposition change
much during his life?” asked the pro

“Well,” answered the bluffihg stu
