TNsu Tcrk Start
On Nay 10, 1919, there occurred the
Astor Place opera house riot, one Of
the most sanguinary Of the street
rows that have distracted and terri

Of wild terror prevailed In the house,
while outside q mob bOmbarded the
building with paving stones, which

Some of the railroads have increased
their stocks, in the aggregate about
$40, 100000, but taking the present

it is shown that the par value Of the

1881. on the basis of the present capital

per cent. above par. These had depre-
ciated in May, this year, to $647 ,O96,-

take the lowest prices made during
the panic last week the depreciation
would be still greater, but that would

VANDERBHT'S STRONG BOX.
The Rock-Wa1led and Iron Ribbed Vault
In Which he Keeps His W alth.
From John Swinton's Paper

From John Swinton's Paper
I stood the other day in the vault of
the formidable fortress of iron and
masonry on Forty-second street, where
last year the richest nabo in the world
locked up his 5000, 00O,0 in stocks,
bonds and other securities. It is one
of the most redoubtable works of de-
tense on the American continent. though
you may not be entirely certain of that
by surveying the building from the out
side. Its foundations were blasted out
of the rock, the front wall is five feet in
thickness, and the side and rear walls
are three feet, the materials used being
pressed brick with brown stone trim
mings. The beams, Orders and main
pillars are iron, incased in fire proof
material. The doors, window frames
and minor partitions are iron,
marble and glass. No wood is
to be found in the structure.
The great vault is 36x42 feet, of
wrought iron, steel and Franklinite
iron, is imposing in strength and pro-
portions, and is situated on the ground
floor. Its four outer doors weigh s. 200
pounds each, and have every effective
and known improvement in defensive
devices. A massive wall of masonry
surrounds the iron work. The vault,
which is burglar, fire and waterproof,
constitutes distinct building in itself.
The armed watchmen who guard the
building day and night are under the
strictest discipline, their hourly move
ments being recorded by an electric
clock, connecting with various points
on each floor of the structure. and there
are also wires running to police head
quarters and the offices of the District
telegraph. In one corner of this great
vault, behind heavy iron bars, are the
heavier iron doors of the works contain
ing the Vanderbilt securities, which
can be opened only by skeleton keys
held by the owner alone.
l suppose that 100 men in this build
ing with Gatling guns could easily de-
fend it against q mob of 100. 900 assail-
ants; it could be reduced by nothing less
than the continued play of heavy artilJ
lery. Itmay be year since Vanderbilt,
then worth" 5000, 100000, put the
largest part Of his possessions in the
vault He could not, perhaps, put more
than 5000, 100000 under guard here at
that time; but he has added over $12,-
100000 to his fortune within the year,
though it has been poor year. Thus
rapidly does the stupendous volume of
his unparalleled pile enlarge. Nothing
like such growth of any mans wealth
was ever before known in the world.
Every year, in the nature of things, the
growth increases, SO that the estimate
of the best informed men is, that by the
year 1890 he will be able to pile up not
less than $500, 100000 in his great iron
vault behind walls five feet thick.

Southwark Flow of CAPITAL.

The flow of capital into the southern
states continues at tremendous rate,
and if there is no check to the move
ment the next census will reveal some
wonderful changes in that section of the
republic. According to the Baltimore
Manufacturers Record, the money in
vested in new mining and manufactur-
ing enterprises in the south since the
LIST of January this year amounts to the
great sum of $55, 5O4, 900. The most of
this has gone in the states of Alabama;
Virginia, Kentucky, Texas, Tennessee
and Florida, in the order named. The
heaviest investments of capital have been
in coal mining and iron manufacturing
companies, though considerable por-
ton of this capital has, of course, gone
into various other industries, such as
cotton and wollen mills, -four mills, saw
mills, machine shops, sc. In Alabama,
more than in any other State, mining
and iron making have been the favorite
investments. The apparent fondness
of North Carolinians for small enter
prises is remarkable. There are more
cotton mills in that State then in any
other in the South, and yet, with two ex
captions, they are small as compared with
Georgia and South Carolina mills; and
so it is in other branches of manufac-
lures. Factories are increasing by the
dozen, butmost of them are of moder-
ate dcapacity.

Judge Black and Shakespeare.

"The late Judge Black" says a writer
in The Philadelphia Press, twas a
Shakespearean critic and authority, and
nothing grated on his ear more harshly
than misquotation. During the last
constitutional convention, of which he
was a member, the county delegates
could scarcely make speech without
dragging in some poetical except which
they usually butchered, and the
Judge, who never knew whether
he was in or out of order,
would interrupt them with his correc-
tons, or would 60 to the clerks desk
and see that the lines were printed right.
One day there had been an unusual
number of mishaps of this kind, and
the Judge had secured lave of absence
to go home. Just before leaving he
walked over to Mr.. George W. Biddle's
seat and said: 'Biddle, I am going
away, and if in my absence, you allow
any injustice to be done to the memory
of William Shakespeare I will hold you
personally responsible

An Heroic Deed.
New York Tribune

NEW lOfK tribune.
Greater love hath no man than this,
that man lay down his life for his
friends" This is what Chief Engineer
Balm, of the steamer State of Florida,
did. The only woman saved from the
wreck of that vessel was Stewardess
Jane MacFarland, of Glasgow, and
she owed her life to the self-sacrifce
of the chief engineer. He was in one
of the boats when he saw that this wom7
an was left on the sinking steamer. He
gave her his place, returned to the
Florida and went down with her. Such
a deed recalls that thrilling scene on
the sinking Birkenhead many years
ago. There was only room in the boats
for the women and children, and there
were many British troops on board At
the command of their officers these
brave men put all the women and little
ones in the boats; then drew up with
parade steadiness on the deck, and as the
vessel sank they fired volley and went
down with her, their ranks unbroken to
the last. That was collective heroism,
but it was not nobler than the perfect
self-devotion and manliness which the
Scotch engineer displayed when he de-
hberately gave up his own life that a
helpless woman might be saved.

MUSCULAR CHRISTIANITY.


Peter Cartwright was the name of a
we'll known Methodist pioneer. He
was sort of peregrinating pigeon,
who flew over the hills and swamps up
on his apostolic wings. He feared moth
ing, and was as strong as he was brave.
At a certain camp meeting he got into
trouble with a set of roughs who had
tried to break up the services. Maj. L.,
who was a prominent citizen, though a
great ''sinner," identified himself with
the roughs, and, flying into desperate
rage, said if he thought Cartwright
would fight him duel he would chal-
lenge him.
Major" the preacher answered, "if
you challenge me [ will accept it."
"Well. sir, Idare you to mortal COM
bat"
Cali right, sir; I'll fight you. And,
sir, according to the laws of honor I
suppose it is my right to choose the weap-
ons with which we are to fight"
Certainly" the Major replied.
we'll uHou, we WILL Step over mere
into this lot and get some cornstalks. 7
think I can finish you with one."
The Major waxed hotter. He
clenched his fists and foamed with rage,
saying: eff I thought 1 could whip
you [ would smite you in minute"
eyes, yes, Major" the militant minis
ter asserted; but, thank God, you can't
whip me; only don't you at
tempt to strike me, for if you do,
and the devil gets into me, I shall give
you the worst whipping you ever got in
all your life." That ended IT.
Another bully threatened to whip the
Rev. Cartwright, who answered, "Sir,
I never like to live in dread. If you
really intend to whip me, come and do
it now"
The bully continued his curses and
threats, and the minister jumped off his
horse, and going to him, said, "Look
here, you have to whip me as you threat
ened, or you will have to stop that Ours
ing, or will put you in the river and
baptize you in the name of the devil,
for surely you belong to him."
The bully repented, and afterwards,
became one of the preachers best
friends.

Confederate Army Yarn.

General Forrest was approached by
IN Arkansas man, who asked:
General, when do you reckin' we're
going to get something to eat?"
"Eat!" exclaimed the general; "did
you join the army merely to get some
thing to eat?"
"Wall, that's about the size of it,"
"Here," calling to an officer, "give
this man something to eat, and then
have him shot"
The officer understood the Joke, and
replied:
"All right, general"
The Arkansas man, exhibiting no
alarm, said:
"Bile me ham, cap'n, stew couple

Charles o. Conor's Modesty.

A Nantucket correspondent of the
Boston Globe says of Charles O'Conor:
On one occasion he laid $40 bill on
the plate at the Roman Catholic church.
At the next service the priest mentioned
the circumstance, and warmly praised
the donor. O'Conor was very angry.
"They will get no more from me-" he
said, and they did not. O'Conor gave
with a liberal hand where he believed
the object worthy one. "He has dis
tributed 5000, 900 in Nantucket" said
one who knew something of his acts.
Owing to his peculiar methods it is diff
ficult to learn the extent of his charities.
Within the past two months some un-
known person paid the debt of the
town, amounting to over $1,000. No
one can cay who did it, but every one
believes it was O. Conor."
