-:O:-
Ii the reader will take the trouble to
examine Treasury note from his ''pilc, +"
he will find the Trcasurer's name at
the time of its issue from Washington,
legibly written ON it. This duty of
giving the whole country his signature
now falls on Conrad n Jordan, one Of
President Clevcland's appointecs, whose
Office is highly responsible one. in
It's incumbent is accompanied 10y the by
no means cx,rayagAut salary of six
thousand dollars !, year for the perform
ance Of duties requiring all ability
gained 10y long experience and natural
adaptation.
Mr.. Jordan has both. The greater
part Of the fifty three years Of his life has
been spent in banks or other financial
centres. He began at the foot of the
ladder in New York City, rising in his
first place, namely, the Hanover Bank,
to be general bookkeeper of that insti-
tuition. His next engagement was at a
bank in Fishkill. The Third National
Bank, New York, was started in 1864,
with Mr.. Jordan as cashier. In 1880
Mr.. Jordan became Treasurer of the
New York, Ontario and Western Rail-
road, which position he resigned in 1854.
After thai time he worked hard OH n
scheme, rs yet unsuccessful, looking to
the establishment Of a Clearing House,
with operations covering the whole
country. He was busy with this
scheme when the President gave him
the appointment he now holds with
such credit.
Mr.. Jordan has exhibited great abil-
ity in finance. His ambition is SO to
present the affairs Of the Treasurer's
Office to the public, that the average
citizen will apprehend them clearly,
and without difficulty.
The Treasurer is strongly-bnilt
man. active and energetic. His bearing
is somewhat brusque, and he is no waster
ofworls; but he talks we'll and interest.
ingly, and people who know him best
like him the most.

Tho ''Eresh Air Fund" Children.

We have heard a great deal in the city
about the Fresh Air Fund, and what !,
fine charity it is to take the city children
from their homes in the great tenement
houses to roam awhile and pick flowers in
the green fields and broad pastures Of tho
country. Most poetical do the agents
grow when soliciting the farmers to take

who have never breathed anything but
