Among all the buildings in New York
city to- day there is not another that has
so ancient and eventful a history as the
hall of records, or registers office, in the
City Hall park. 1t Yves about the middle
Of the last century, when Broadway was
country road, when the only theater
stood on the site of the present world es-
adjustment when center street was a lake,
william street was q swamp, Canal street
p river. and the Bowery n lonely lane,
running up through huckleberry bushes.
During the Revolutionary war this
building was the chief British prison for
distinguished patriots. Here Capt Nath-
am Hale the intrepid Yankee, was con
fined after his capture with plan of the
British defenses of Long island in his
SHOES, and in the public common adjoiu-
ing, exactly where the city hall now
stands he was hanged as a spy. Here
that tough old rebel, Ethan Allen Ticon-
deroga fame, was imprisoned after his
capture while trying to take Montreal
with thirty men, and his treatment and
that of others caused the building, which
now stands near the city hall station OF
the elevated road, to be regarded by the
patriots with about the same adherence
as attached to AndersOnville after the late
war.
When the British eyacua ed New York
in November 1888, the iailer, Cunning
ham, having won the same infamous rep
utation as the confederate iailer Wirz,
was asked 10y his patriot prisoners,

An unsolyed Problem.

ers of partisan republican newspapers;
II is said that up TO the 10th of this
month 1906 presidential appointments
have been made 10y Cleveland and acted
on by the senate. So much has been
seen in the papers about the thieves,
murderc,s, forgers, and conyicts gener-
ally, appointed by the present admins
tration, that it might have been expected
that from one-third TO One-half of these
would fail TO be confirmed by the senate,
especially ms the senate has republican
majority. It seems however, that all
were confirmed but six 1t surely cannot
be that the newspapers have been lying
about the men appointed, and slandering
them. Yet if they have not, are APP
pointments that come under the above
classes the kind To suit our republican

The Road to Prosperity.
From the Manufactures Record.

From the Manufactures Record.
The history OF the last fifty years OF
business in the United States teens
with the same lessons. There is no
royal road to prosperity. The
heights of permanent success can
be attained only by steady climbing,
step by step, over toilsome and often
very rugged paths. There are very
few strong business concerns in this
country that began on large scale.
Nearly all started with but little CAPT.
tai and worked their way to their
present dimensions and power by
thrift, industry and perseverance. In
the days of their weakness the found
ers of these houses we're taught by ex-
perience how to overcome the difficult
ties they encountered. Even the few
enterprises that started in q large way
that have proved successful have been
founded and managed by men who
gained their wisdom and skill by long
service in building up similar und err
takings from very small beginnings.
AS a rule men OF this kind succeed in
what they undertake, because they
combine prudence with enterprise, and
never venture beyo nd their depth.
