Short la the memory of Broadway.
iNo matter how bright the glare of the
Spotlight as soon as the one on whom
It shines steps out of its brilliant
rays, he Is forgotten. There was Dsn
the Dude. Reputed to be wot-th at
least a half million dollars, he was
known from one end to the other of
that thoroughfare that has been called
the gay white way. Hat check girls,
waiters, ctgarette and flower girls,
Musicians and others of the hot spots
balled his frequent appearances with
Joy. So did the parasites, since Dan
the Dude's pockets bad no fish hooka

paved the way with the long green,

of whom many sleep In underground

It Is the long abandoned Tillage of

was a thriving community, with 900
Inhabitants, all engaged In the lum-

That the source of the wealth of

Broadway, the Important question is
not, “How did he get it?” but “Has
he got it?” The having of it is suf-

once questioned as to the origin of
that which he seemed to regard so
lightly. He replied that he bet on
horses’that ran flist. That apparently
was his sole occupation. He was seen
not only at the local tracks but also
at other well known tracks about the
country. But he always came back

Something happened to Dan the
Dude. Maybe It was the depression.
Maybe his Judgment as to which horse
was the fastest of the field lost its
keenness. At any rate, places where
be had been well known saw him no
more. He wasn’t missed. News that
hla money had gone had spread. It
seemed that occasionally he stopped

gold has disappeared, as well os the

Morand, In Vanity Fair. So many
years have passed and gold is to this
day master of the world. The Fed-
eral Reserve bank and the Bank of
France have inherited the wealth of
the Jnca, for gold Is a widely traveled
metal. Two million three hundred
thousand kilograms were sent from
Peru to Madrid, yet this prodigious
drain was not destined to enrich
Spain.. The wars ngalnst the popes,
the Moors, Louis XIV and the Dutch
quickly exhausted It, because all gold
gained by arms has never served any
purpose other than to support the
arms destined to preserve it.

The±Secret \
j
Will Breed Goldenrod
to Yield More Rubber
The United States Department- of
Agriculture is trying to Increase, the
amount of rubber in goldenrod.
Believing that goldenrod has possi-
bilities as an emergency source of rub-
ber for the nation, the department has
planted several native species of th*
plant at Its experimental stntion near
Charleston, S. C., nnd will select and
breed promising vnrlties. Rubber spe-
cialists of the department believe th*
rubber content of goldenrod may b*
Increased Just as the sugar content of
sugar beets was Increased by breeding
and selection.
In the last two years the department
analyzed more than 30 species of gold-
enrod gathered in the vicinity of
Washington, D. C., and at Charleston,
finding some in which the leaves,
which contain most of the rubber In
goldenrod, yielded as much as 7.91 per
cent rubber.
The Charleston plots have plant*
contributed by the Edison laboratories
In Florida, plants collected in the vi-
cinity of Charleston, and plants from
Washington, D. C\, and nearby regions.

Crows Damage Pheasant Nests
In a report from one observed area
In tile northern part of Iowa comes
Information that the crow Is one of the
worst enemies of the pheasant. Ac-
cording to the observations made, sev-
en nests out f twelve pheasant nests
were destroyer by crows. It was also
found that the number of crows has
doubled In the observed area in the
past three years. During the same
three years the pheasant population
has decreased from approximately 25
birds to only twelve, according to the
report.

Gave Liberty for Love
Liberty wus surrendered by Don
Antonio Goicoechea, a former minis-

Rivero, In Spain, for the love of his

to the government to be allowed to
enter the country to see his wife, who
was seriously ill. Permission was
granted on condition that he should
surrender himself to the authorities.
The ex-minister arrived in Madrid too
late. Ilis wife had already .died as
the result of an operation. Neverthe-
less lie was obliged to carry out his
bargain.—-Montreal Herald.
