pRoFlTeo BY WATERLOO.
Nathan Rothschild Made tx Millior
Dollars as Resnit of Battle.

NHinan hOtnStntlu Dduc : TX NillllOu
Dollars as Resnit of Battle.
There is probably no more plctur-
esque and unique bit of financiering In
history than that by which Nathan
Rothschild made 100000 as result
Of the battle of Waterloo. The story
Is told by Henry Clews In his book,
"Twenty-elght Years In Wall Street.
Rothschild had followed Wellington
during his campaign against Napoleon,
and at Waterloo the man of money"
sat like soldier In shower Of rain
and bullets, watching the battle. AS
soon as he observed the arrival of
Blucher and the rout of the Wrench,
Rothschild set spurs TO his horse and
rode swiftly to Brussels. A carriage
whrled him TO Ostend, and the next
morning he was at the Belgian coast.
The sea was so rough that he had to
pay 5000 to boatman to carry him
across the channel, and he landed at
Dover In the evening. The next morn
Ing he was In London before the open
ing of the Stock Exchange. 1t was
known that he had come direct from
anu ihuSl tue ihIeSt
news He had outstripped all the cou-
rlers and messengers of the nation.
There was no telegraph then. In an
swer TO the anxious Inquiries for the
news of Wellington, Rothschild dis
creetly said nothing of the battle of
Waterloo.
Instead, he sighed, and told of
Blucher's previous defeat at Ligny, and
said that as a result there could be lit
tie hope for Wellington. The gloomy
report caused panic on the exchange.
and when the market had reached the
bottom Nathan Rothschild bought ev-
erythlng that he could find money for
all being done quietly through his
brokers. Then came the news Of the
battle Of Waterloo, England's victory,
! the final defeat of Napoleon. Securities

public health.
In 1870 process for extracting oil
from cotton seed had been discovered

One thing that the census tells us is
that the Indians are not only not dis
appearing, but that they actually have
Increased 10000 since 1890. Those who
juggle with figures say, also, that there
are quite as many Indians In the coun-
try to-day as there were when It was
discovered. Taking this into considera-
ton with the wars they have gone
through, not only with the white men,
but between themselves, we shall have
to readjust our previous opinions and
acknowledge that after all they are n

expert to be equal to four or five cents

fuel. When fines for exceeding the

to the cost of the sport, 1t will be seen
that the ordinary citizen must still con-
tent himself with a special train.

A correspondent of the Booknan
calls attention to the remarkable I'M
proyement in the mechanical and arts
tic makeup of American books In the
last decade or two, especially in JuNe-
nile works. The illustrations in the
children's books of twenty years ago
were indeed something fearful and
wonderful to behold" as compared with
the average juvenile volume OF the
present year. In spite of the enormous
increase In the number and variety OF
childrens books. the illustrations in
most Of them are highly creditable
Many of the best artists In the country

of work. The fact is one Of happy an

ing generation. Even the improvement
I'm Illustrations and binding. however,
Is not so remarkable as the Increase
in the number of juvenile books annu-
ally put upon the market. An exam
nation of the publishers announce
ments shows that the list of new juye-
nile books is considerably larger than
that of new fiction for adults. Most Of
these volumes find a profitable market,
for the publishing of chlldren's books
has proved to be profitable branch of
the trade The next generation Will
be a generation of omnivorous readers,
if a multiplicity of Juvenile books can
educate them into that habit. Wheth-
err this is desirable contamination is
another question. 1t Is by no means
certain that the phenomenal Increase
in the amount OF Juvenile fiction is a
matter for congratulation. The aver
age story for boys or girls Is fully as
ephemeral as the average adult novel.
Happily there is every reason to be
lieve that the boys and girls do not ac-
tually read as much as the large sales
Of juvenile books would indicate. The
sales Indicate the gift-giylng propensl-
ties of prosperous parents and friends
