Prosperity.

Dun's Review last week says; Bet
ter than all other news the record Of
August commerce shows the relation of
United States bus ness to that of other
countries. Exports were SEQ. 082, 875
larger than ever before in August, and
exceeded imports by s97, 929, 500, partly
because exports of staples were 50, 1885,
97s larger than last year, but also be-
cause exports Of other products, mainly
manufacturing, were $40. 949 900 larger
than last year.
Fears that great advance in prices
might shut off exports Of manufactured
products have not been unnatural, and
it is most gratifying to find that such
exports still continue and expand The
excess Of exports over imports gives fair
promise Of as large balance in foreign
trade to the benefit Of this country dur.
ing the winter as has ever been seen.
That manufactured exports do not fall
off, but are larger than ever. is both
surprising and gratifying.
1.-The volume Of business now in pro-
Rress has never been rivalled. Clearing
house payments in the second week of
September were 1912 per cent. larger
than last year, and 5S per cent. larger
than in 1899. Railroad earnings in the
first week of September were 81 per
cent larger than last year, and ID. per
cent larger than in 1892; returns cover
ing half the mileage Of the country
show earnings in the United States
amounting for August to $52, S6l ,3O9.
exceeding last years by 1877 per cent. I,
and those Of 1892 by 49, per cent, and
the July returns covering all the large
systems show earnings of 500, 1853. 522.
exceeding last years by 10 6 per cent.
and those of 1892 by IA per cent. Tom
mage from Chicago was nearly 60 per
cent. larger than in 1892, and 90 per
cent larger than in 1898. !"

legal execution for this crime that has
ever taken place in Virginia. People
came from many miles around Most

them and ate their midday meal on the
court green. The hanging was in pri-
vate, only the officers and few wit
nesses being present.
A local minister conducted religious
services in the cell He recited the
Lords Prayer and Finley repeated It
after him. The doomed man said ::
'Oh. Lord, to Thee / commend my
spirit. and may this be warning to
all highwaymen, my friends and my
enemies, and may it keep all from
wrongdoing.
Finley was praying when the trsp
was sprung His neck was not broken,
but he died from strangulation in

upon the dead mans features. The

Che pollar Grew to Millions.

New York, Sept. lS-The wonder
full way in which money begets money
was never more wildly shown than by
the history of the Vanderbilt family.
Commodore Vanderbilt began his bust
ness career with 81. This was only
sixty years ago. OF the 800, 900, 600
which he accumulated, he left $50 600,
600 to his eldest son, William Henry, in
1871
William Henry Vanderbilt, dying in
1855, bequeated $4,000. 900 each to
four sons and four daughters, and left
besides SO OOO 900 apiece to his oldest
sons. Cornelius and William X.
Cornelius Vanderbilt inherited 500 =
600. 600 in all. The present estimate of
a close friend of the family is that
Cornelius has left 1925 COO, 600 Will
liam X. Vanderbilt inherited $50 ,OOO,-
600, and it is estimated that he Is
now worth approximately sll5. 900, OOO'
William II. and Cornelius Vanderbilt
doubled their riches
Allowing the same rate Of increase
for the six other children Of William II.
Vanderbilt. and taking account Of the
increase Of the residue Of the estate Of
Commodore Vanderbilt. the present
valuation of the fortune Of the Wander
bilt family is very close to 1925 ,OOO.
600
The Vanderbilt fortune, thus com
pacted. will amount to billion dol
lars before all of the children Of vii.
liam Henry Vanderbilt are dead.
Thus does one dollar grow into one
billion dollars IN three generations.
