There is hot wholesome drink

Richmond, Va.--Wall street and the

scure origin. Horace Greeley once
said that If the stream of fresh coun'
try life which each year Is poured into
New York from the rural sections
were stopped, in so years grass would
be growing in Wall street.
Among the men who have thus gone
from the country and attained promi-

Virginia and the south have furnished
more than their shares. or southern
men prominent in financial circles In
New York, Thomas Fortune Ryan.
born in Nelson county, Virginia, and
still q resident of that county, is the
leader. Had the genius of Ryan been
turned to politics, literature or the
law, instead Of money-making, he no
doubt would have obtained promi-
nence in any one Of them. for the
same qualities that have brought him
such a large measure of success In
the financial world also would have

The announcement has recently
been made that Ryan is now making
his preparations 10 retire from active
business life for the purpose of de

Interesting to note that he has hac
under way for several months plans
for the erection of million-dollar res

summers on his Oak Ridge estate in
Nelson county.
A million-dollar office skyscraper for
Richmond also is in contemplation by
the fnancier. Plans for both these
buildings are believed to be now In
the possession Of Ryan. who is ex
pected to come to Richmond in the
early fall for the purpose of looking
over possible sites
Ryan always has taken a deep inter
est in Richmond and in Virginia. Sew
eral years ago he financed the enter
prise that resulted in the erection in
Richmond of one of the most mag
uificent Catholic cathedrals in the
south and in the country.
In this connection it is stated that
Ryan is as fast as possible breaking
his son, Allen A. Ryan, to take his
place in the financial world.
Thomas Fortune Ryan was born In
1851 in a modest brick building, which
still stands at LovingstOn, Va, the
county seat Of Nelson county. The
building is hotel, and is known as
the Virginia house. His father
George Ryan, was a tailor, and at one
time piled his trade at Amherst court
house, in the adjoining county to Mel
son. His mother was a Miss Fortune
A brother, William, died several years
ago. His mother died when he was
IA years old.
Between the ages of IA and II
while he was living with the Fortunes
Ryan worked on farm. One year he
hired out, and the old man for whom
he worked, and to whom he gave &

bought and is now rapidly improving
Here it is that the cattle and STOCK

home.
In 1868, with his clothes and a rail

Berry, of Amherst county, who wa
his guardian, Ryan left Nelson coun

For three days he walked the street
in Baltimore looking for work. A
last he went into the office of John S
Barry, who employed him and after
wards promoted him. He married
Barry's daughter, Miss Ida M. Barry
After several year, in Baltimore, h
