How Widow Made Use of what She
Heard Railroad Directors Say.

How n widow Made Use of What She
Heard Railroad Directors Say.
\ few years ago a widow and her
daughter were occupying a section in a
Pullman sleeper on the Missouri Pacific
railroad. The section next to this lady
happened to be occupied by a couple Of
the directors of that railroad. The par
tition between the two sections was so
thin that it was not difficult for a con-
versation carried on in one section to be
heard in the other. The lady traveller
heard the two directors discussing a plan
Of consolidation whereby the stock of the
Missouri Pacific was bound to be greatly
enhanced iii value.
1t was then worth but or 3 cents on
the dollar She was on her return trip
to her home in Hartford The conver-
sation of the two directors proved on her
mind. She revolved it over and over
again until her home was reached. about
which time a $1,000 note due her was re
deemed. She sent for her attorney, de
tailed to him the conversation she had
heard and said she was almost resolved
to invest the s., 900 in Missouri Pacific
The attorney, mistaking her announced
resolution for irony, laughed, but the
woman of wealth persisted.
at is but $1,000" she said, land if |
lose shall have just as much to eat as
have always had and just as much to
wear. If the plans betrayed by these
two directors work out, shall make a
good deal of money buying Missouri Pa
cifc."
The attorney obeyed the instructions
of his client, invested the s., 600, and in
less than month the proposed consoli
dation was consummated, and the Hart
ford widow realized for her s., 600 invest
ment $2J0,O00. AT the first blush this in
cident is set down as proof of luck.
1t was simply an unexpected eXhibi
ton of what in Wall street vernacular is
termed nerve" on the part Of u quick
cared and quicker witted woman. Not
one person in 10000 would have given
any heed to the conversation referred to,
and not one of thousand who might
have heard and needed and who hap
pened to have the money, as the widow
had it, would have dared invest it,
These incidents and illustrations might
be expanded until volumes were filed.
The evidence would be cumulative that
eyes and ears and brain make what
the thoughtless term luck. k.-Cincinnati

There is one lawyer in the city who
will never again make use Of Latin
phrases in writing business letters. A
short time ago he had to write a letter TO
a client in u neighboring city regarding
an important lawsuit that was to come
up before the court in the course of a
few days The information he solicited
was highly essential to his case. In writ
ing this epistle he made use of letter
head with his printed address at the top
In closing his letter he signed himself
thus: John Langdon, Address ut supra. "
After waiting several days for the re
ply, which did not come, he again wrote
his procrastinating client and asked why
he had not sooner answered his first let
ter. The next day he received a reply in
which the client said that he had an
swered the letter and addressed il TO

Wilson'S Neglect of Facts.

When Mr.. Wilson was telling those
London merchants how pleased he
was to be able to win their gratitude
at the expense, he forgot to mention,
of the American people--facts at home
were strongly refuting his fallacious
argument. Professor Wilson, it will
be remembered, told the Britishers
that protection in America had helped
England's trade. What is the truth?
According to Mulhall for the fiscal
year Of 1890 the aggregate exports and
imports of the United Kingdom were
So, 3,644, 1868 That included an in
crease of exports to the United Ste es
because of the prospective passage OF
the Mckinley act. For the year 1892.
after the Mckinley act had taken full
effect, the aggregate of Great Britain's
trade was $3,4s1, 1853, ,795, a decline Of
$l63, 3,076,740. Does that look as if Eng
land had profited by American pro
lection?
But close study of the trade statiA-
tics shows other proofs of the profess
sor's inaccuracy. In 1889 the total
foreign trade of the United States wa,
81 7632,s81. In 1891 it was $l,79S,,
$50, ,5S9, or an increase under the Nc
