THE GREAT CITIES
New York is the Rest situated OF Any
of the Great Cities of the World
New York Herald


OF all the great cities of the world
New York is the least suited to the
wants of vast population And yet,
In point of natural locality, situation,
air, the convenience of sanitary ar
rangement, climate and latitude, New
York has advantages far beyond any of
her rivals. London lies in bleak.
northern latitude, on an island washed
by tempestuous, angry seas, in fiat,
low country, far inland, with no access
to the sea except 10y a narrow, winding,
sluggish river London, too, by the
effect of nature, the unusual humidity
of the climate, and the ever present
fog and cloud which sweep over the
English islands, added to artificial ar
engagements in the way of coal manu-
factLras, is for certain weeks of the
year the most uncomfortable city in
the world. There are days of gloom
when it is impossible to see across a
narrow street; when people walk in
midday with lanterns; when grimv, dis
ease breeding fogs permeate every
home. Paris is III low country, on
the banks of a small river, with an
unusual rainfall, and with more than
the ordinary number of uncomfortable
days IN the year, so far as the weather
is concerned Vienna is very cold in
winter and warm in summer. It's in
habitants have the fierce tempests
from the plains in one month and the
still tiercer blasts of burning air in
other months. Pekin lies in latitude
where people are burned to death in
summer and frozen to death in winter.
Toxic Is, perhaps, the best situated of
all the great cities with the exception
of New York. The sea washes The
outlines of its municipality, there are
large spaces for public recreation, and
were it not for the tendency to earth
quakes, which makes life an excite
ment in Japan, it might be regarded rs
the favored city Of the world.

A. Dunning, of Jefferson. Illinois, who

every year for this and eastern markets
has succeeded in keeping these varieties
from October until year from the

disposed of a carload at $50 per ION.
His entire crop brings him an average

them in a house kept at uniform

ally rs the season advances, the
squashes are examined, and if signs of
decay are observable upon any of
them, such are at once removed. As
may be inferred, Mr.. Dunning finds the
crop very profitable one.

Jubal Early Met His Match.
From the New York Tribune.

Some time ago prominent citizen oil
Southwestern Virginia related to Trib-
une correspondent an incident which
he said happened at Lynchburg few
months before, and which may serve
to illustrate Gen. Earlys intirmities of
temper. 1t appears that an internal
revenue agent had been sent into one
Of the counties of southern Virginia to
arrest "moonshine" distillers, and had
succeeded in his mission. The county
happened to be one Which had former
lv been the home of Gen. Early, who
was furious at this interference with the
freeborn citizens of Virginia. After
com leting his duties the revenue agent
returned to Lyuchburg Taking a seat
on the hotel veranda one day, he found
Gen. Early, whom he knew by sight,
seated near him. The two gentlemen
entered into conversation, as any two
strangers might, and after while Gen.
Eearly began to talk about the arrest
of the "moonshiners, and TO abuse the
internal revenue agent who had made
the arrests. He cursed the agent round
" and with great elaboration. The
agent endured this patiently for some
time, and then his Kentucky blood be-
ing fired, it is said that he replied in
substan :e somewhat as follows: Eyes,
| heard about that, and | also heard
that an old scoundrel down here in
Lynchburg-I think they call him Gen;
Early-said the agent ought to be shot "
1t is reported that the general drew
himself up and exclaimed II am Gen:
Early, sir" "And / am the internal
revenue agent whom you wanted shot,
was the cool response. III nao
known that | would never have spoken
to you, SIR" shouted the rate general.
.sWell. | don't think should have lost
anything by that" replied the Ken
tuckian. And there the conversation
ended.

FLETCHER HARPER.
Career OF the Head OF the Great Pub
fishing House

Fletcher Harper was born in New
town, l.. l., in 1904, and in 1928 was adj
mitted rs q partner with his three elder
brothers in the publishing firm of j. &
j. Harper, the name of which was then
changed to Harper d Brothers The
! four brothers for many years were the
most conspicuous men in the publish
leg trade in this country. The sons Of
poor Long Island farmer, the boys
all learned the printers trade
and the two elder brothers start
cd in the business of printing
for booksellers, The younger brothers
were admitted into the firm when they
had thoroughly learned their trade
until now it has assumed colossal pro-
portions. In 1851 the first number OF
Harper's Ne,o Monthly Magazine WIS is
sued. Two years after the establish
ment was burned to the ground, the
loss being 81 ,500,000 The firm at once
/ cast about for a new site and selected q
lot on Franklin square. There they
built a seven-story, iron, tireproof
building, which stands to day and is
one of the most conspicuous objects on
the liue of the East.side New York ele-
waited railroad The business Of the
firm increased until now it is estimated
that the house employs one thousand
persons in the work of printing, electro
tipping, engraving and binding In
1867 the first number of Hdrper'S
Weekly was issued--a periodical which
the rebellion brought into prominence
and which is now known in the reno
test corners Of the country.
The history Of the house for the last
thirty years is virtually the history Of
the man who has just died, for Fetch
er, though the youngest of the brothers,
was really recognized as the head Of
the firm. He possessed large executive
ability and was an unusually good
Judge Of character. Most of the inno-
vations in the business, including the
issue of the magazine, were due TO his
suggestive mind, and his rare business
foresight seldom proved at fault. Two
generations of sons have grown up and
entered the business, presenting spec
tacle seldom seen in houses in this
country. 1t has been the custom in
the house for the sons to begin work at
the printers case and then master each
department Of the business in success
sion. At the end Of several years.
when the work of training was ended, !
department was given to the new J
conner. No favors were shown; all the |
sons were treated alike, and the result |
is corps Of well-equipped men such !
AZ fey business houses in the country |
can equal.
