of the United States, on May 1st sue
ceeded A. L. Wyman, who had been
connected with the department for twen-
tytwo years. Mr.. Jordan began bust
ness life as clerk in the Hanover Bank
of New York. He rose in the estimation
of the directors of that institution
through al! the grades of clerk until he
became general bookkteper. Leaving
the Hanover Bank, he entered bank at
Fishkill. where he remained Only short
time. When in 1864 the Third National
Bank of New York was started, he was
made cashier. which position he retained
until four years ago. His administration
of the bank was very successful. When
the gold panic Of 1869 brought the Gold
Exchange Bank to ruin, its affairs were
found to be so completely tangled that
no progress was made in the settleme rent.
At this juncture Mr.. ,Jordan's services
were called in, and he was made auditor
TO the receiver. He at once began a
painstaking and careful investigation of
the banks affairs. and quickly straight
ened them out t. the satisfaction of the
Gold Board and all concerned in the
matter.
In 1880 Mr. Jordan became Treasurer
of the New York, Ontario and Western
Railroad, a position which he resigned
about year ago. Subsequently he
bus sled himself AT Albany in endeavoring
to secure the passage of bill incorpor-
ating the United States Exchange and
Transportation Company, the object of
which was the establishment of a clear
ng-house, with operations extending
throughout the country. This bill did
not pass, and Mr.. jordan remained mac
during VIII CHI he did effective service.
He has been familiar with the financial
operations of the Treasury Department
for years. Secretary Manning chose him
to look into the methods of the Treas
urer's Office, and the change in the form
of the debt statement and the presenta-
ton of the assets and liabilities was a le-
salt of his investigation. 1t is said that
| he has great liking for figures, and that
it is his ambition to make the affairs of
. the Treasurer's office so plain that they
m ~ be comprehendcd by all who under
stand bookkeeping. The account of the
cash in the Treasury consequent upon
, Mr.. ,Jordan's assumption of the office
showed that the great total only varied
: two cents from the amount on the books.
The newly appointed Treasurer of the
: United States is about 80 years old. He
has gray hair and mustache, but looks
younger than he is, Notwithstanding
) this. His figure is compact and muscu.
lar, his complexion ruddy, his eyes are
gray. and their snap is expressive of the
) fearlessness and vigor which are the
leading characteristics of their owner.
1t is related of Mr.. Jordan that upon an
, occasion when he was crossing the North
river, New York, young woman pas
senger fell into the river. Quick as d
flash he jumped in after her, and, being
good swimmer, succeeded in saving hel
5 life. Then he quietly went his way tt
: the bank and never told anybody how il
was he appeared in wet clothes.

SEEDS AND THE SOIL.

Important Statistics Concerning Farm
Labor-The Chiefs of the Bureau of Ag-
ricu,ture and Their Work.
The new Commissioner of Agriculture
is Norman J. Colman, Of Missouri, and
in experience and qualifications he is
well fitted to make the department of
practical benefit to agriculturists. A
useful and interesting report came from
the depal tment recently in the shape of
a statement of wages paid farm laborers
in all parts of the country, which is
usually made once in three years. In
1866 the average for white labor was $2S
per month without board and $3.50
with board In 1869 the rate paid fully
in clsii was $50 10. In 1915 IA further
decline had occurred. the reduction in
six years being from S32 Us to 500 96 in
the East, from s270l to $23 GO in the
| West
The following statement shows by sec
tions the cash rates where board is not
furnished, showing the gradual decline
of Inflated values of the speculative
period, the undue depression Of the era
of panic and the ultimate recovery in
1892, with the changes indicated by the
present returns Of May 1, 1855:

On the Paris Bourse.
Is Letter 10 San Francisco Chronicle.

Paris Letter TO San Francisco Chronicle.
Gamblers at the Paris Bourse are
divided into two classcs-those who
have guirhrk, and those who have
not. A enirhcf is paying-teller' 5
window, where notes can be pre-
scented. Those who have them are
bankers, corporations and heavy
spectators. These people pay their
differences on settlement day with
promptness, and, while it is perfe city
true that shameful rascality is not in
frequent, instances of upright, honest
dealing on the bourse are equally
numerous. The spectators without
a .guirhef are known as amateurs and
as h0UlMcS dN monde, and in ninety
five cases out of 100 both sort end
by "6n7uH IN boniX0N,' which is a
very pretty French way of sayin that
they are bound to "peter OUT in the
long run. In the last crash there
were about 1000 hoWWcs au monde
ruined on the bourse, but very few
of them avoided their losses, and
those that did have been tabooed
there and in social circles ever since.
If you desire to take flyer in rentes,
Suez, Egypt, Panama, or Portuguese
railways, you step into the bourse
and hunt up your brokers' clerk.
There is an awful row going on; 500
or 600 men are yelling at the tops of
their voices and everybody is push
ing, crowding and rushing around as
if mad. When you have found the
clerk whisper your order. "All right"
says he, and he scribbles on a scrap
that he tears out OF a note book and
hands it to you. On this scraD there
is an A or V. The first (achete),
signifies that you have purchased;
the other (aendu), that you have sold
the amount of the stock, etc, indl-
Gated below. Since the existence of
the bourse there has not been a soil
tary instance of such memorandum
being disputed, although there are
no witnesses to the transaction, and
simply because it is one out of which
no lawsuit could possibly arise.
