THE NEWSPAPER REPORTER
The Men Who Interest, Entertain,
and Instruct-A Tribute to
the Profession

Reporters differ in many ways says
10 Howard in the Boston Herald.
Some are purely descriptive, in some
a bump of humor is magnifcently de-
veloped, some permeate story, short
or long, with indices of personality.
Others are cast iron in recital, and
make their stories as piquant as an
algebraic problem. A good reporter,
gifted with normal spirits and health
is thing of beauty and a joy forever
in any well-regulated newspaper Office.
Every door is open to him, and the
field of life is spread before him with
its sunshine and its shadow. In the
course of an evening he talks with
presidents and walks with princes. he
sits with The sorrowfui and mourns
with the humble. In church to-day,
in Jail tomorrow. merrily dancing
with Arion this evening, deep down
10 coal pits with striking miners some
other evening Now he interviews
magna'e of the land and
now takes the dying deposition of
butchered thief. Part of an evening
is spent in the cathedral fair, part in
political meeting, part in police
headquarters part in the debris Of
railroad collision. No place is too
sacred, none too lowly, no man is too
high. too great for him to approach,
none too poor, TOO humble for him to
serve. He is As much at home i'm the
palace of a millionaire as in a hospital
ward of a prison. He writes with
equal readiness the glib utterances of
a betrillei bishop and the narrowing
confession of poor devil in the
Tombs. A good reporter must be
discreet. How much he hears be cam
not tell. how much he knows it would
not be fair for him to reveal. He sees
the best and worst types of society and
has his hand more constantly upon
the pulse of affairs than any minister,
lawyer. doctor or merchant. The
work of the American reporter speaks
volumes daily for itself. Now and
then one is deceived and misled,
fooled; but by men at large, from
Name to Georgia, from New York to
Oregon, the American reporter holds
his own in the interesting, the instruc-
tive and the entertaining.

will be the most costly one, probably.
in the world. LIS dipensions are 35x-
&c feet and finished IN solid oak and

manner, the frescoing on the ceiling
alone costing upward of $4,000 and
the chandeliers 81, 500. The tables
are to be made of solid oak and mahog-
any and entirely covered with the most
elaborate carvings. The beds are to
be of one solid piece of slate for each
table. The cushion rails will be fast
ened on by a new device, which effect
ually does away with boring and run
ming cushion holes through the rails,
thereby destroying the effect of the
carvings The cost of the two tables
when completed will be 5000.

Gen. Grants Cook Luck

Gath writes to the Philadelphia
Times The friends of Gen Grant
throughout the country NAV he inter-
ested TO know that his private affairs
are in Furnishing condi ion. He has
one-fourth interest in the banking firm
Of Grant d Ward. which had an or
iginal capital of 100000 paid in.
Ulysses s. Grant, jr., put In 500. 600,
aud James ID. Fish. the silent partner
500, 900. The firm, chiefly man.
aged by Mr.. Ward, did very well,
and Gen Grant desired to come in.
He first put in $4,000, and AFTER
ward desiring his son Jesse to enter
the firm his associates allowed him to
put In $50, 600 more, but in his own
name, so as not to increase the number
of partners. While Gen. Grant
takes no part in making CONTRACTS.
signing checks. or in the executive de-
tails of the bushes, he is a valuable
man through his character and con-
nections, both for credit and for diplo-
matte work. Besides making large
divisions of prd&ts, this firm has
about 100000 of securities belong
ing to il.
Mr.. Ferdinand Ward, Gen. Grants
partner, is worth 81 800, 900, and was
80 years Old last week. He began
iIfe as a Presbyterian missionary's son.
Buying and selling certificates of
membership in the New York Pro-
duce exchange, he predicted that these
certificates would go unto $4,000
apiece. They can be borrowed for
temporary Use by any person desiring
to do business in the exchange Mr..
Ward has fine villa at Stamford,
Conn, and there made the acquaint-
anse of Gen. Grants son, which led
up TO the Connection with the father.
He is one of the phenomenal young
men in this city. He came from Gen
esee, and among his earliest transact
ions Was selling to that region job lots
of flour left over at the pro luce ex-
change.
Mr.. Ward, as L have Intlmated, is a
son of the Rev. DIR. Ward, Presbyter-
ian minister at Genesee, who was for
many years a missionary to India
The Rev. Mr.. Ward was afterward
consul thele. His son never went
with him to the Indias, but came to
New York with the intention of enter
ing Princeton college, but found that
his instincts were toward business, and
he became the clerk of the Produce
exchange under our present Comp
tOller Grant. He has kept the con-
fidence of every employer, and friend
he began with. The mayor has pu:-
into the hands of his banking firm tie
negotiation of the $4,000 600 of
aqueduct bonds, and Mr.. Fish, his
first friend of wealth, takes break fast
and dinner with MIN in Brooklyn every
day.
