afternoon and the early part of the

Trust company was made the depos'
tory of the Presbyterian church, from
the general assembly down to tne

convenient to make deposits there
1t is not suggested that Mr.. Hippe
maintained these associations for fraud

were dishonest. But it is certain that
after these affiliations had gained Tor
him a great financial power his relg,
ious professions did not intervene De-
tween himself and the temptation to in
vest trust funds in wildcat speculation
nor to practice fraud to enable him 10
carry out his schemes. Whether re-
morse, the belief that he could not re-
cover his losses or the fear Of discovery
and disgrace led him to take his LIE

that there was no suspicion agalns'
him until after his death.

If Frank K. Nipple, president OF the
Philadelphia Real Estate Trust COM
pany, had not been so conspicuous in
church work his wrecking of that con-
Germ would have been no less serious
blow to one of the leading financial in
situations of the city and would have
caused no less distress. But had he not
been so prominently identified with re-
ligious affairs he could scarcely have
acquired such confidence as placed him
in a position where it was possible for
him to misinvest, by a system amount
the institution Of which he was the
head. The downfall Of no other man
in Philadelphia, save John Wanamaker,
could have created such a sensation as
the crash which followed the suicide
Of Mr.. Nipple. So carefully were the
circumstances Of his death concealed by
his family that it was not until after
the exposure Of his financial misdeeds
that it became known how he died. He
took laudanum and then lay down in
his bathtub and turned on the water.
For years Mr.. Nipple had been
prominent figuer in charitable, relig-
ious and financial circles. He was su-
perintendent of the Sunday school of
the Tenth Presbyterian church, as well
as one Of the trustees Of Bryn Mawr
Presbyterian church. He was also
treasurer of church institutions. among
them the Presbyterian General Assem-
bly,. In several financial institutions
he was a director. Nipple had an alb
florence for tobacco and liquor. His
Sundays were spent in church or in
religious meditation. Sunday newspa
pers he would not read, nor would he
ride in street cars, unless the necessity
was most urgent. He could not be in
;luced to discuss matters of a business
nature on the Sabbath. His charities
were large and every one who appealed
to him was generously helped. Einn1e
acquitted himself we'll in all positions
He was deemed by all men as of nm
questioned probity.
Since its organization, twentyone
years ago, he had been president Of the
Real Estate Trust company, and a di-
rector in the Franklin National bank.
He was also treasurer of the general
assembly of the Presbyterian church.
treasurer of the sustenance committee
of the Synod of Pennsylvania, treasurer
of the Presbyterian hospital, and Amer
lean treasurer Of the western section
of the Reformed church holding the

Dizziness, or vertigo-scientific writ

All stocks, soup and gravy should
be boiled up each day or they will turn
sour.
If lemons are kept in cold water their
freshness will remain unimpaired for
several weeks.

Best Part of Americas Navy he
viewed by the President.

viewed by the President.
The most imposing naval pageant
ever seen in American waters passed
in review recently before President
Roosevelt in Long Island sound. A
combined fleet of siXty-one naval YES
sells, representing every type OF ship III
use in the navy except a hospital snip
and a marine ship, greeted the Presl-
dent and a vast throng Of sightseers on
hundreds Of yachts, excursion boats,
launches and rowboats. There were
forty three fighting ships, ranging from
the massive battleships, like the Rhode
Island, Of 10000 tons, costing $5,OOO,-
900, and from the powerful and fast
armored cruiser, like the West Vir-
ginia, of $4,000 tons, costing $5,SOOOOO,
down to the submarine Shark, of 12O
tons, costing probably $150,O00. The
combined cost Of the ships, so far as
construction was concerned, was prob
ably more than $125,OOO,00O
There were 1926 men on the feet,
including 800 officers, if each ship had
it's full complement, and most of them
did. This means that there were
enough men afioat on the warships to
supply city of 10000 people with men.
There were something like LOO guns
on the combined fleet Three-fourths
of the feet upon which the President
gazed has been built since the war
with Spain.
Yhe President, On board the May
flower, passed through and around the
line of ships anchored In three lines,
each $50 yards apart. Then the May
flower anchored and the three admirals
of the fleet and all the commanding
officers called on him and had lunch
con. Then the President visited the
three fiagships and troopship Yankee,
