had two stores, a railway station, black smith shop and four dwellings Obviously it was too small for James w. Scott. Peo- pie who know about these things say MT. Scott is now the most popular newspaper man in America, and tho best of itsis so much betting doesn't spoil him.
 Pens That May Be Feared.
 Wherever one turns in this gallery, strong faces and brilliant careers are before his eyes. Take Frank Hatton of the Washing ton Post. Country newspaper man, orig inator of Bob Burdette, politician, member of Arthur's cabinet-shifting about there after from pillar to post, he bobs up in Washington one day without cent and buys the only morning paper in the town. Now he moves into q splendid new build ing, almost out of debt, and with his wick ed partner, Wilkins, who knows more things than he tells, is prepared to enjoy life and cut coupons. Hatton is about as popular a man as one could find in a days search. He is president of the famous Gridiron club. The biggest public men of the day are afraid of his trenchant pen, and they all call him Frank" partly for this reason, but more because they like him.
 Near by is the face of another Washing ton newspaper editor, one not so well known throughout the country, but which
 
 that is ideal and prosperous in the newspa- per line. It is that of MT. Moves, editor of the Washington Star, one of the best news papers in the world and one of the most rapid money makers. There is a tradition that Washington is poor newspaper town, but the 5000 & week clear profits of The Star do not speak in that tone of voice.
 Brilliant and Brainy.
 Here is Will Hearst of the San Francisco Examiner. When he bought that journal, people said he might have a lot of fun, but he surely would never make q success in the newspaper business. Hearst has sur prised the croakers. He has developed managerial traits of the highest type, and his paper would make him a rich man, if he were not one already. MT. Hearst has shown that young man whose dad is rich needn't by any manner of means succumb to general and opulent worthlessness. Next to Hearst is the handsome face of Walter Phillips, who started out as telegraph operator, and who has worked more than one presidents message off on the Wash ington wire at speed faster than any one could take at the other end. Phillips was a fast sender, and he has been sending fast ever since he became manager of the big press association. Another young man who has a worthy place in this collection is Clark Howell, the brilliant editor of the Atlanta Constitution. Here is the shrewd face of John R. Mclean of the Cincinnati Enquir- CT, one of the richest newspaper men in the country, who lives in Washington and has fine social position here. A few days ago MT. Mclean gave 5000 outright to the poor of Cincinnati.
 From the Quaker City.
 Philadelphia has four portraits here George William Childs, who is loved by every newspaper man and printer in the land; Charles Emory Smith of The Press late minister to Russia, noted for his great ability and equal modesty: William M. Singerly of The Record, and w. R. Mckean of The Ledger, who was General Harrison's great friend and originator of the Cape May cottage scheme The Ledger people have a penchant for presidents. Mir. Childs was Grants intimate friend, Mckean pinned his faith to Harrison, while Clark Davis gets in line with Cleveland and is a favorite at the White House.

Stone of New York, who retired from the harness recently after a half century of arduous work; General Agnus of Balti
