AN emaciated old man, aged go, died in
Bellevue Hospital, New York city, last
week, who gave his name as John Russell.
He said he was native of England, and
had no home and no friends He was a
printer by trade, and had been setting
type on the daily papers and in job Off
ces in New York for over 80 years. After
his death $50 in bills and a package done
up in paper we're found in his clothing.
The package proved to be collection of
bank books, twelve in all, showing de-
posts in the Blocker street, Citizens,
Bowery and other savings banks to the
amount of $40, 900. He is remembered by
a number of old printers to whom the
discovery of his heard was revelation.
They said he always lived on the poorest
and cheapest fare, and generally kept
aloof from his fellow workmen. The
bank books have been placed in the custo-
dy of the Secretary of the board of char
tiles and correction who will turn them
over to the public administrator. Accord
ing 10 law, IL TIC money IL uOI clalmeu
within eighteen months, it will be added
to the sinking fund for the payment of
the state debt. This misery printer must
have relatives in England whe will claim
the results of his long years of toll. He
must have lived a miserable life, with no
one to love him or care for him. It is to
be hoped that his nice little cash fortune
will be claimed by some relative who will
be benefited by it.

The success in business is to meet

who live on credit without payment. If
small debts were paid, there would be no
large ones to pay. The trouble with peo-

persons to whom he is indebted.-Er.

THE veteran Senator from Rhode Island
is III poor health. Mary Clemmer, in the
Independent of last week, in her very
pleasant style, thus refers to the distin-
guished senator's long term of public SER
vice:
There is reality in the kilograms daily
reaching the capital concerning the actual
condition of Senator Anthony. Not two
years have passed since his bosom friend
Land, and already its outreaching shadow
seems to have fallen on his comradc. The
Oldest in consecutive Office of all the Sena
tors, he has served for twenty four years
in the Senate of the United States, and
has just been elected for his fifth term,
which, could he live to serve it out, would
bear him on to 1989-full thirty years Of
service in the Senate. Already an his
torical figure, he has mellowed from a
prime OF surprising mani beauty to an
old age full of benignity and gentleness
Profoundly beloved by his associates of
both parties, he would have had that uni
versal franchise as President of the Sen
ate had not his senatorial term expired on
the 4th OF March. Only sixty-eight years
old, he should have had Gladstone's add
ed years; or, better still, the near two de-
cades Of William of Prussia. But with
him already the fountain Of life runs low
and the last ebb of its stream is near at
hand. a steadfastly party man, he man
aged to maintain his allegiance to his own
political creed without arousing the ami
mostly of his opponents. True to his Re-
publicanism through the whole war, such
was the equablcncss of his temperament
and urbanity of his bearing friend and
foe alike liked Anthony. He was never
the chairman Of any important Senatorial
political committee, but for many years
he was Chairman of the Joint Committee
on Printing, which, in its way, was the
Literary Committee of the Senate. For
this certain grace of thought and elegance
of speech made Anthony especially adart-
ed. A journalist by profession, he was
master Of a certain finish of style that
might, in its way, have decorated litera
ture. His eulogies on dead colleagues in
the Senate were gems of their kind, often
perfect examples of both elegance, elo-
quence, and loving devotion. A kind
hearted, true-heartcd, gentle gentleman;
faithful friend, true patriot; would
that his benignant days might be longer.

1T is now claimed that the great North

within the next three months. The rapid
ity with which the work has been pushed
the past two or three years is wonderful.
1t is probable, however, that several
months more will elapse before traffic
over it is regularly begun, for so large a
piece of work must require some per-
fecting before everything can go forward
tremendously. 1t is expected that it will
be in readiness by the middle of Septem-

grain for the fall market
