Mr.. Green is the son Of the famous
Mrs. Hetty Green whose wealth is es-
timated at sOmeih NJ more than SIC, =
10000 and something less than $780,
O0O,OCO. He is said to have an ambi-
tion to be governor Of Texas and is
being generally mentioned among the
memt ers OF his party as he probable
few people who can be persuaded to
believe that il is within the range of
posi- hillity TO- republican to he elect
ed governor of Texas, Mr.. Gre n is
salo to be willing to IN AXE the race as
part of his general plan for organic
ing and building up his party in the
state.
Ned Green, as he is familia-ly
known, Is not the typical son Of rich
parents. His mother had enough money

send him over to buy champagne for
the Prince of Wales. But she didn t.
She preferred to make him g ra' lroad
president, but desired to test him first.
His boy hood days we're spent in a New
York Latin school, and he vas then
sent TO the Jesuits' college at FOrdham
In 1887, when he was g-adua'ed from
that university. he was brig hit boy of
IS, who had seen some OF the gayeties
of New York, but who had o. passed
through college without learning some
thing from his books. He returned to
his mother, and was asked what he
would like TO do.
"Well, mother" said Ned, II think
[ would like. first Of ali, to take a va
cation and have good time. About
three months would be enough l
think"
At the end of these three months he
would be willing to accept whatever
his mother had to make.
How much money did he think be
would need for his expenses whi rest
ing? He fought thai about $1,000 a
week would suit hin. Mrs Green iurned
to her secretary and told him to place
81, 900 TO Mr.. Green's credit, and Ned
out to enjoy his vacation. For
twelve weeks Mrs. Green saw or heard
no. hing of her boy. Ga the last Gay
of the last month young-Green returned
to his mother and reported himself
ready for work. On this occasion Mrs.
Green did not consult her sons wishes
as to just what sort of employment
would suit him.
Il want" she said, turning to her
clerk, ''thOSe papers about the Con-
neticut road.
I he clerk handed her bundle of
folded and backed documents. She
selected one from the bundle and gave
it to her son. When he examined
it be found that it was an appointment
making Z. H. r. Green the foreman of
a raj road section gang in Vermont.
AS compensation for his labor in this
aesthetic occupation Edward was to re-
ceive S45 month. He did not chew
his pill. He gulped it and struck out
like man for his job. A
tough job he found it. His
section was one of the toughest on the
road. The drop from 81 600 a month
spending money to SIS a month wages
was rather difficult matter to adjust
ard the first months end he was $40 in
debt. he wrote to his mother for a re-
mittap ce, but the mother didn't remit.

buckled down, cut his expenses,
and in three months his debt WIS paid.
One day Mrs. Green rolled along
in her private car and stopped for a
chat on the roadside with Ned. She
WIGS favorably impressed with his pro-
gress, and that night prom him
supernten lent of the division at a
salary of 800 month. In this capaci-
ty he labored hard for year and call
ed home to receive his reward. Mrs.
Green, as good q judge of men as Of
stocks and bonds, saw that her son had
the proper stuff in him aud took him
into her confidence. His surroundings

he found himself daily in consul alton
with bank directors and railroad presi-
dents. He was presently made direc-
tor OF the Baltimore & OHIO railroad,
and became the personal friend of
money and railroad magnates.
Mrs. Green bought the Texas Mid
land railroad and sent her son to Texas

ayr. That he is a capable railroad
man is shown by the rapid develop
ment of the Midland since he has had
control of it. Under his wise manage
ment its profits have increased 400 per
cent. He improved the service in all
its branches. He put 10 neg ties, sew
ei ty-pound rails, and made the rOadbed
tt e best in the south. This was the
first road to adopt the use of electri
city for illuminat on purposes. 1t is
now the only road in the south
whose cars are lit by the incandescent
bulb.
Mr.. Green brought new forces to
bear on the development of his road.
the most potent OF which was his con-
duct with the people. He likes 20 meet
the men and women along the line of
his road, and to give them what they
ask for. There is no man in Texas that
has met Ned Green that does not like
him. He is what is called good
fellow in every sense of the word.
His liberality is a proverb, and
wherever he goes those around
him feel the influence of his
money. Like Harry Hotspur, he is
willing to give much to a friend, but
when it comes to a business trans action
he will cavil on the ninth part of

NEW THINGS IN SCIENCE.
Subjects Discussed by the Worlds Men
of Letters

The walking OF a fly on the ceiling is
familiar phenomenon not yet fully
understood. a recent paper by Mr..
d. II. Dierhold ment. ons that the nj
croscope quickly disproves the old
theory that flies hold to smooth sur
faces by means of suckers, and that
Hook s idea that flies stick to glass
by viscous secretion was shown q
dozen years ago to be only partly
sound. DR.. ROmbo has established
the fact that the flies hang on by the
help of capillary adhesion-the
molecular attraction between solid and
liquid bodies 1t is true the foot hairs
are very minute, but, as each fly is SAID
to have 10, 600 or $1,000. we need not
be surprise at what they can do.
ARTIFICIAL DIAMOND PROCESS.
The method proposed by Herr E
Moyat for producing large artificial
diamonds consists e. sentially in seal
ing pulverized coal, iron chips aud
liquid oarbonic acid in a strong sterl
tube and submitting 10 the action of
electric arc. Unlike OF err methods,
this process generates enormous pres

TROLLEY CARS WITHOUT WIRES.

objections are overc me by Herr Rott-

THE WORLDS FUEL SUPPLY,

Few scientific deductions are more
STR king than the recent one OF Lord
Kelvin on the world s underground fuel
supp Y, much Of which is still hidden.
The co Il is the residue of ancient veg
citation and the oxygen of the air was
probably all derived from this vegeta-
ton, which experiment shows must
have furnished three tons of oxygen
consumed in burning coal. The sur
face of the earth has an area of $40,
600, 600 millions of square meters, each
square meter bearing 10 tons of air, of
which two tons is oxygen, and a simple
calculation shows with great prOba BILE
accuracy that the total fuel supply in
the earth is $40, 600, 600 millions of tons.
1t was determined in 1881 that Eng
land, Scotland and Wales had Jag. 900
millions of tons of coal surely availa-
bic, with Sc, 900 millions Of tons more
possibly available. This is more than
Great Brit,in could burn with it's own
air, tnat country having, therefore,
more than An average supply.
HISTORY OF HUMAN HAIR.
Our condition of hairlessness has
been a subject of study by DR.. Exner,
German biologist. Our ancestors, he
holds, We're totally covered with hair,
and its disappearance may be account
ed for by the fact that its absence was

left for a definite purpose. Certain
hairs serve as organs of touch, notably
the eyelashes, and in a less degree the

eyes. In animals the hair serves
to maintain and regulate the body

alone has such purpose.
