Joseph Jefferson" said A. L.. Erlan-
ger. "To be sure the immense earn
ings from his many seasons in RIP
Van Wrinkle and his keen sense or
business led the public to believe that
there would be millions of dollars left
when the great old man of the Amer
lean stage died; but to those who
knew of the charitable side Of his per-
sonality, and the free hand with which
he gave money away to members OF
the profession who needed it there
should be no surprise that this is
not the case.

thousands of dollars every year for

up this fellow-I used to know him
and If he needs the money let him
have it; only he's kind of proud, so
don't let him think that it's charity"
eff | wanted to | could tell you the

ceived regular weekly amounts from
Mr.. Jefferson, ranging from $25 up to
hundred. The late c. w. Couldock

was Mr.. Jefferson's orders that Coul-
dock should never want for anything.
"Couldock was peculiar old man,
honest and candid, and a little thing
like $500 week did not pre-
vent him from saying what he thought
of Mr.. Jefferson. Once Jefferson
bought an apartment house up in Har-
lem, fine, new building, then very
fashionable and well apportioned.
"Couldock needs a good place to
live" he said to me. furnish a nice
apartment in the house for him and
tell him to occupy it, rent free, with

The picture in to-day's Journal and Courier which is connected with the Hirsh advertisement is a significant one. and to the reflecting mind it opens up "a train of thoughts The picture is fine portraiture of a modern loco motive under full headway. The splen- did engine is instinct with life and en- ergy, and as it appears to round a curve it clearly indicates that ''it is not letting any grass grow under it. Near the headlight, surrounded by a wreath, is the letter "H."
 Now, it is easy to draw many lessons from the picture. It is similar in many respects to the famous Hirsh Brothers, who designed it. Here are a few: Hirsh Brothers are in this community like d mighty engine. They keep moving. They don't let any grass grow under their feet. They always ''get there" They carry valuable freight which neV CT fails to receive the appreciation of the public When they start off the crowds gather to see them and wonder at the speed they make. They are not only an accommodation train, but also an express.
