FORTY SECOND YEAR.
BoUNDLESS WEALTH.

Mr.. Morgan has his millions
/ haven't got cent,
He has mansions built of marble
1 toll to pay my rent.
But I've more than Mr.. Morgan
When the day of toll is DER,
For know true love is waiting
Just inside my cottage door,
then hear what never greets him
Underneath his marble dome;
IT'S a baby's happy greeting;
''Hello, popl Has 90 t'um homer
Rockefeller has full Golfers
But mine are empty quite.
He has private yatchts and such things,
All mine are ''out of sight
But I've more than Rockfeller's
Wondrous wealth of gold commands,
1 have dainty, wee caresses
From a baby's loving hands.
And when ev'ning stars are peeping
Overhead heavens dome
/ can hear a childish welcome;
''Hello, pop Has 200 t'um home?''
Let them have their untold millions,
1 envy not their store,
They are worth colossal fortunes
am worth whole lot more,
For have grander, treasure
Than their boarded wealth can buy
'Tis the love light see glisten
In my little darhngs eye.
They can ride in private coaches
And can plow the oceans foam
But they never hear the welcome;
Hello, pop Has 'oo tum home?"

At the age Of 10 he obtained posi-

system which now operates hundreds
of miles OF road. and has done 50 much
for the development of Western Mary
land. West Virginia, Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania. and the other states of that
section, then operated only a single
line of track between Baltimore aud
Cumberland. It was thought to be a
wonderful enterprise, as indeed it was
in those days, but Insignificant as
compared with its great operations OF
today. Yet that line was the begin
ming of railroad building IN America,
and the Job Of freight brakeman which
Henry G. Davis held upon the line
was the beguning of his remarkable
career and Of his enormous fortune.

Didn't Want Vice Presidency.
In the Democratic national conven.
tion Of 1891 Senator Davis was one of
the foremost candidates for vice pres
ident. and doubtless could have had
the nomination had he consented to
accept It. It was believed that the
late Thomas A. Hendricks, who had
been a candidate for president, would
no. accept the nomination for vice
president. and that Il would go to Sen
ator Davis. Senator Davis himself re-
fused, however, to allow his name to
be considered and threw his strength
to Mr.. Hendricks, VINO was nominate9
on the ticket with Cleveland and
elected. Senator Davis was called
into consultation with the Democratic
