faost' was what he would give to own the
books OF autographs. In June the monu.
ment, admittedly one OF the finest in the
united states, was unveiled in Milwaukee,
and not long since a huge pigskin bound
silyer-clasped volume containing $50 pounds
OF precious autographs, was delivered Cap.
tain Pabst by the bookbinder.
Aside from the almost romantic patriotic
zeal displayed by the collector OF the tones
invaluable contents and the not less pa
triotic generosity OF its purchaser and
owner, the book itself, aside from all its
associations, is a unique wonder. Captains,
generals, admirals. presidents, judges, actors,
authors, artists and musicians all responded
to Mrs. Ely's request when her motive was
explained, and though here and there rather
aimless and inappropriate quotations are
given, in the majority the signatures are
accompanied by gracefully fitting sentiments.
"a soldiers monument would be like a
soldiers fortune were his only tool the
sword" Enthusiastically writes Captain
Charles King. Fighting Bob Evans
charmingly describes above his name that
"a patriotic woman ie the best thing In
the world and from his poem, THE Ad-
vance Guard" Secretary OF State John Hay
quotes a verse.

tions and dozens of ingenious devices, known
to an enterprising, energetic, tactful FEM
intue mind. she had accumulated a sum that
1t nSkes many men a lifetime to hoard.
Armed with a knowledge of the sacredness
of her cause and with a collection of auto
graphs OF the most prominent men and
women of the day. she laid her project be-
fore Captain Pabst. Those carefully gath
cred autographs she proposed to bind in
one volume and from the sale of 1t add to
her big monument fund. That Mrs. Ely
expected a snug sum for this quite unpar-
alleled collection OF most valuable human
documents was natural enough, but the re-
ply she got to her proposition was charac-
teristic OF the man she had approached. He
did not ask at what the book was valued,
how much she hoped for. nor his own esti.
mate of 1t.
What is needed to complete the fund
for the monument" inquired this gentle
man, who once, from sheer love of and be-
lief in the American soldier. bought UP

rosch writes a bit of the sword music, Jean
de Reszke words Of the sword song and his
brother a martial exclamation of the Wan

Few OF the authors who answered Mrs.
Ely's request complied with particularly apt
sentences. Kipling, who has had war for
his theme SO often, gave only his name. and
rare, curiously rare, are any selections from
the bible. ~Strangest OF the pages Is that
written on here, there and everywhere by
George Francis Train, and should an ex-
pert be called in. he would have, OF all the
signatures, the greatest difficulty in I'M
raveling that of Charles Dana Gibson were
not the very curve OF his capitals so familiar

women who lent their pens to this cause,
Mary Il. wilkins acquits herself with the
most becoming grace. "All honorable death
Is the knighthood OF life" she writes, and
to show how thoroughly Mrs. Ely pursued
her task and how far aheld she went for
some OF them. may be mentioned the auto

partments. One of these, in the case Of the
larger universities employing half a dozen
clerks, looks after the collection of tuition
and other fees from students. Another and
larger force of clerks looks after the renting
of rooms in the college dormitories, and, in
cases where a m is maintained, the
supply Of food to the college dining rooms.
AS many as 100 men are employed in this
branch Of the business office Of a university
like Harvard. Still a third department Is
that which looks after the university's in
vestments and the collection Of its income
from these investments. In institutions like
Cornell, which are large owners Of real es-
tate, this may be the largest and most i'm
portant department of all. Cornell, for
example, has a force Of farm loan inspectors,
woodsmen and mapmakers and maintains a
land Office at Eau Claire, Wis, to look after
its western properties.
The modern university, therefore, in ad-
dition to giving instruction, carries on in
some Instances the businesses of a bank, a
real estate and investment office, a hotel and
a collecting agency. In these multiform
operations a great university employs sew
eral hundred men.
