With all the advantages of
youth, education and good looks
and no vocation other than the
EMO yment OF wealth, the hero of
our present story chose rather
to sacrifice his ease and COM
fort on the altar of his duty as a
citizen. His city called him to
save her from spoliation and
corruption, and he responded to
the call. To lure him from the
path of right came the seduc-
tions of love and the claims of a
revered parents memory, allied
with the mighty forces at the
command of political and fInar1-
cial malefactors. The firmness
with which the man of the
hour, singled out for the high
est post in a great municipality
BY those who saw in him only
a weakling and a tool resisted
the very forces that had elevated
him for their own purposes to
official power will be an inspi-
ration to the reader, as it has
been an uplifting force in the
minds of thousands who have
witnessed its theatrical repre-.
Sent0fion.

"HE country house of Charles
Wainwright, financier, topped
the ridge overlooking the water
4 in climax of architectural hid
eousness and extravagant cost. The
grounds of Charles Wainwright, fnan-
cier, stretched out into countless acres
of landscape gardening. The whole es-
tate of Charles Wainwright, fnancier,
eclipsed those of his neighbors in the
fashionable suburb, even as the name
of Charles Wainwright, inancier,
eclipsed almost every other in the city
world where money ruled as undis-
puted and absolute monarch.
Even when he turned from the bus
tie of city and fellow money builders
and sought for space the simple life
on his $2,5O0,000 country place, with
it's modest equipment of forty-one serv-
ants, Mr. Wainwright so far carried
into the wilds the atmosphere Of bust
ness and the burden of other mems
wealth as to have very complete lit
tie stockbroker room fitted up adjoin-
ing his big library and to keep man
night and day at his private wire.
Charles Wainwright, financier, was

aged their affairs, let them go pretty
much as they chose and-as they were
more or less ornamental and enter
tanning and decidedly popular - was
rather fond of them.
The trio had passed a pleasant, I'M
eventful month at the big house on the
hill early in the summer of 49,, when
a day dawned whereon fate booked a
number of decidedly interesting fateful
happenings to occur.
Wainwright himself was up betimes
and at work In his library, porting over
market reports. cipher kilograms and q
dozen other details of deals which his
simple life cult did not prevent him
from operating at long range. With
him was his secretary, Thompson, a
pallid, earnest looking young fellow,
whose unobtrusive efficiency had long
since won the financier's admiration.
| This morning affairs in the financial
world had gone more than ordinarily
to Mr.. Wainwright's liking. Moreover.
a paragraph in one of the city papers
that had caught his eyes had set his
lean gray face to twitching with as
near an approach to smile as the
great man ever permitted. Altogether
he was in an unwontedly genial mood,
and some of his good nature so far ex-
banded as to include his busy secre-
tary.

Wainwright read the message, scrib-

to the secretary, who hurried out
with it.

for your office to take all they can get

my career if l can carry 1t through.
You understand your part perfectly
to take for yourself 20 per cent Of the

The tuberculosis ward at the

B. Dixon has all but completed was
inspected yesterday by Mayor Will
liam E. Thoms, the board of chari.
ties, Fire Chief Snagg and Building
Inspector A. !. Chatfield. The ward
Is an addition to Brookside, being a
part of the building in fact, with all
the modern appliances of hygiene
Ventilation and light without draft
was one of the problems the contract
or spent much time over, for light
and ventilation with draft would
mean danger of contagion, and while
there would be a possibility of such a
menace the building would defeat
the purpose for which it was erected
The ward will therefore be absolutely
isolated from the rest of the building
though actually part OF it. The
board considered the work excellent
and the mayor conceded while the
building inspector and the fire chief
said it complied with the building
and fire protection ordinances in ev-
cry particular. The capacity of the
addition is thirty beds, one bed fol
each patient with plenty of room fol
every modern accommodation.
