Vanderbilt Father and Vanderbilt
Son.

1t is notorious fact that Cornelius
| Vanderbilt the son of w. H., dropped
q cool 100000 on the late telegraph
job.
A couple of days ago William III
sent for Cornell and said:
"I understand you have been q
heavy loser lately in the telegraph
business ?"
"Well, 1 guess I have" said Cor.
neel. "Just half million, that's ALL
Well, Pm sorry" said w: H.
"But you know can't trust you"
And with that the old man drew
out check for 100000 to his son
that is to say, $500,000 for the actual
loss and 100000 for Services render
ed.n
The son himself stared in astonish-
ment.
"Services rendered" he said, "What
services have rendered ?"
"Wby, my dear boy" answered w.
H., ''you proved invaluable. When
you went down in Wall street and OPP
Grated, everybody said the rumors
must be untrue that was on the other
side, ..and so they followed your ex-
ample and helped me without know
ing it. Every dollar you lost was a
dollar i'm my pocket, so that l lose
nothing by giving you back all that.
At the same time your course must
have influenced a coupe Of millions.
/ know that fool, Rufus Hatch, took
pattern by you, and there Is no man
I'D sooner stick than him. You've
amply earned the 100000. But In
future come to your father and get adj
vice. You might not come cut so lucky
next time"
This story would probably never
have seen light had II not been for
Cornell himself, who went straight
way round to Delmonico's and told
everybody he met all about 1t. w. III.

DIR. Maginn used to say that when
once a man had seen his articles in
print within few hours after their
being written, he was never as good
as he might otherwise have been for
work of a more deliberate kind. Ii
Is certainly true that political journ-
alists have seldom done much In those
departments OF literature for which
their profession might have been sup
posed to be special preparation.
There Is something, perhaps, In the
necessity Of bringing every subject
within the limits Of column and a
quarter, and arranging 1t instructive
ly in three or four paragraphs, that
units man for working on a large
scale. Or It may be that the habit of
dealing with questions Of the moment
makes 1t especially difficult to deal
with larger subjects in the spirit
which benefits them. Even II, from
temper or circumstances, the Journal
list is led TO cultivate impartiality, his
impartiality l. different from that of
the historian or political philosopher.
1t Is the impartiality which strives to
do justice to an adversary-to state
his case fairly-to make allowance for
his prejudices, but to treat him as an
adversary all the same. But no man
is prouder Of his professionalism man
ever strives harder than the conscien-
tious professional journalist to put
his conscience in all that he does.
Personal comfort, pleasure health,
all discarded, until the full claims OF
his professional duties have been full
filled.-Exchange.

Death of John l.. Dyson.


The Lexington Advertiser, OF last
Friday, brings us the sad news Of the
death of John l.. Dyson. one Of the
Oldest and best citizens of that town.
We knew him in the long ago, and
always found him to be every inch
high-toned, warm and true-hearted
man. Many years ago he was a stu
dent at our State University, and his
friends here will receive the announce
ment Of his death with profound
sorrow. He was found dead a few
hundred yards from his own house,
and It is supposed that he committed
suicide while labCring under Temporal
insanity. He leaves wife and two
children, one an infant, and many
friends to mourn his death. Peace to
the ashes Of the friend or our boy-hood,
and in the resurrection morn may the
Gate stand ajar and his spirit find lite
way into the Eternal City.
