Peculiarities as to Beard.
IN. Y. Journal.
Jay Gould's beard reveals. IA plainly az

money maker II extends from one ear
clear down around his chin 10 the other.
IL helps him 10 think out various new
financial schemes. Without it he would
be like Samson without his locks-utterly
shorn of his strength When in medita-
ton he strikes II with his thumb on one
side of his face and his fingers on the other.
There never was a man whose money
getting trait overtopped all others but
wore beard like Mr.. Gould's.
Russell Sage, Mr.. Gould's Wall street
ally. haf n chin whiskcr, dencting frugal,
saving nature. Mr.. Sage has never as
pircd to magnificent financial moves. but
he has satisfied himself with making his
dollars double thcmsclves-the thrifty and
unceasing use Of them in the recognized
methods Of money changing
Cyrus ". Field. anu;iSc Of Mr.. Gould's
allies, has chin and sidc-whskcrs. but
they look moth ing like the latter's. They
arc not trimmed with the precision that
indicates an exclusive business nature.
They are rather full and gray and show
not sign Of dropping tendency. The way
they stick from the face Indicates ambi.
ton for distinction. They reflect clearly
two enterprises which Mr.. Field is very
proud of-thc laying OF the Atlantic cable
and the construction Of the elevated rail.
ways in New York. Mr.. Fields name is
inseparably associated with both.
Roscoe COnkliag wears his beard cut in
the pronounced Van Dyclk style. IL ia
trimmed down on either side of his face 70
n sharp point at tho chin.
General Horace Porter. the after-linncr
speaker. wears a moustachc and imperial.
The latter indicates his military nature as
plainly rs epaulets on his shoulders or a
sabcr clanking at his heels would. IL also
tells Of an ambitious, intrepid nature.
aud is in keeping with his brilliant speech
and manners.
George VI. Pullman wears chin-whiskcr1
that reveal pushing element in his com.
position. and at the same time bctrays in
ventivc qualities and resourccful WAYS.
