ADVERTISING MANS
FINE POSITIC N

The Boston Journal of April "a
says: James Taylor Wetherald
whose appointment has just beeen an
nOunced as sinking fund commission
er of Boston, was born in Richmond
Ind, the son Of a Union officer who
lost his life in the war of the Rebel
lion.
Twenty-Five years ago Mr.. Wether-
aid adopted Boston as his permanent
home and entered the field of news
paper and magazine advertising. Hav-
ing met with remarkable success he
is now sole owner Of the largest news
paper advertising agency in New Eng
land, which bears his name.
Largest Advertisers.
He has developed the accounts of
some of the largest advertisers in the
country, and his progressive methods
have contributed to the success of a
number of notable advertising cam
paigns. Besides the newspaper and
magazine advertising business which
he owns, Mr. Wetherald is president
Of Chester Kent & Co., manufacture
ing chemists, whose products are
sold in both this and foreign countries.
Wetherald undoubtedly has a wider
personal acquaintance with the retail
druggists and newspaper publishers
of the United States than any other
one man in the country.
Has Many Friends.
He has the temperament and man.
ners which make friends, and he num-
bers them by the thousands, especial
ly newspaper publishers, among whom
during the last eighteen or twenty
years he has distributed over his own
signature for advertising many mil
lions of dollars, and by whom he is
recognized as standing for everything
that represents honor, integrity and
square deal.
Wetherald owns a good deal of real
estate, and is heavy taxpayer in this
city, residing at so The Fenway, and
with summer home at Swampscott.
He is a member of the New Algonquin
Club, the Boston Club and the Tedes-
co Country Club. He is a compare
lively young man, and as has recently
been said Of him, His success in life
is an excellent illustration Of what
energy, business tact and enterprise
will accomplish"

make a lasting impression, the sense
of proportion which belongs to him
as business man would, If he had
been on the other side ofwhe world
have told him that there was g
colossal calamity. and one calling fol
a generosity passing any ever shown
on a like occasion. Not only in st
Louis, but in many parts of the world
where his private and public bene
licences are known, it need not be
said that he would have responded
as he has because Of what he felt
ana not of what he saw.
Yet the fact that the money sc
contributed is to go to the relief of a
most dirsful situation, all of which
he saw and part of which he was,
must add something to Mr.. Busch'e
pleasure in making this magnificent
donation. Among all of those to
whom the disbursement of this gift
VIII bring pleasure, we may be sure
that that Of the giver is
greater than can be that OF
any one else. Mr. Busch is al
ways a cheerful giver. such as are
beamed upon in the beatitudes, and
IL is safe to say that none of the
commissioner who dispense his
bounty, and none of the unfortunates
who receive 1t, will get as much JOY
out of it as he has in giving it.
This much for the human side OF
the gift. On the practical side, Mr.,
Busch doubtless sees that, with thu
necessary help and support, the
stricken city and section will rise
again and pass on to new ana great
er cOnquests. No man has q
greater faith i'm the boundless and
redounding energy and recuperative
power of the American people than
Mr.. Busch, for no man knows them
better and few as we'll. He helps
those he knows to be worthy of
help, not only for his sympathy and
their relief, but for rehabilitation of
what is lost and reconstruction OF
fallen powers. He has given wisely
and well-as a philanthropist and as
an American with supreme faith in
the gift and enterprise of his fellow
citizens.
This gift is monumental in the
history Of st. Louis giving. Henry
Shaw's requests of land and proper
ties will total more, but this splen-
did offering of cash upon the altars
Of charity makes a record new in ST.
Louis ana of which st. Louis is i'm
mensely and justly proud.

Volunteer Aid IN

streets as follows
The Supreme Court OF the District
of Columbia held, in the case of the
Columbia National SAND Dredging
COMPANY ct al. VS.. The Steamboat
Charles Manchester ct al, that to en-
A1tle a libellsnt to salvage there must
be q contract, express or implied;
that a contract would be implied
where there was benefit received
tsnd risk incurred, provided the as
assistance was rendered to a vessel
oerelict at the time or to one in i'm
minent danger at the request Of the
officers or crew having it in charge;
that where a ship Is manned and in
control of her own officers no merely
volunteer aid will give a right to
salvage; that no salvage can be
rightfully claimed where no assist
ence was needed, ana that the sal
Tor must have contributed in some
6egree at least to save the property
from destruction or from danger OF
destruction, a mere speculative dan
ger not emitting a person to salvage.
in the case before the court, which
WAS to recover for salvage services
rendered by a tOwbOat TO a steam
boat, it appeared that at the time of
the rendition Of the alleged services
which consisted merely Of throwing
g line 10 the latter by means of
v hich she was tOwed a short dis
tence out into the river. the steam
boat was in charge Of her own Off

made by her officers for assistance
from the tOwiboat. The court held
that the claim for salvage was un-
founded.
