INSPIRING, STORY OF
FRANK A. VANDERBILT
How He Rose From Machinists
Apprentice to Presidency of
a Great Bank.

The election. just announced, OF
Frank a. Nanderlip as president of
the National City bank, OF New York,
recalls one of the most picturesque
stories of perseverng uphill work ever
related to a poor American boy. Thirty
wears ago, Vanderlip was plodding
away in Il machine shop out West, at
IS cents u day. His father had just
died In Indiana, leaving widow and
he's. family with nothing but farm and
a few hundred dollars. The farm could
not be worked to advantage, so the
young man took the place In the ma
chine shop as the only means of sup-
porting the family. He went at it like
n Trojan--he still works that way
and. after a 10-hour day. came home
to pod a portion of the night over

| That made him complement Stenog-
rapher and soon gave him n position
with Chicago investment house at
\ $40 a week. In the days when his COM
panlons OF after life We're enjoying the
| football matches of Harvard and Yale.
| young Nanderlip was digging away at
| dry old railroad reports. In that way
| he acquired statistical knowledge and
| learned how to go to the bottom of the
| things which most men are content tG
! take for granted. After saving 4 little
money he took a years course at the
| University of Illinois. and later, when
! serving as newspaper reporter in Chi
cago he supplemented this course by
attending lectures at the University of
| Chicago. Most of his education, how
ever. was acquired in the university OF
| the wide. wide world, where hard
knocks are the only athletics that the
! students are treated 10.
Finally, young Nanderip became
financial editor of the Chicago Tribune.
/ and soon took rank as one OF the best
/ financial writer's in the country. lie

associate editor of that journal until
March /, 1897, when Lyman j. Gage,
! who was then president of the First
National Bank of Chicago. was ap-
pointed secretary of the treasury Mr..
Gage asked MIR. Nanderlip to SO to
washington as his private secretary.
This position he retained for only three
months, after which he became assist
ant secretary of the treasury on June
]. 1897.
The next year he distinguished him
self by his organization of the treasury
forces for the great work connected
with the war loan of 1898, when 325, 000
separate bids We're received for the
5000 900, 900 popular issue. The treasury
had to take on 600 extra employees j
the task, which was handled with
great dispatch. MIR. Gage, speaking
later of Mr. Nanderlip's work in the
treasury department. said: lie has
great initiative, possesses the power OF
action beyond anything i have ever
seen In any man. He works quietly and
with great speed. He handles 'nen adj
q lnirably, and seems to know what to
do every time No one knows how he
does things, for Nanderlip has a way
OF simply going and doing what he has
Ia do quietly, without letting anyone
know about 1T until it's all done. He
has the sort of force that counts Their

If Battles Mere Aerial.

From Henry b. Hersey's The Menace of
Aerial Warfare In the February Cen
fury.
Let us consider for moment tho
possibilities of an attack on New York
city by Il war fleet superior in strength
to any which we would have available
for defense at the time. 1t would then
be necessary to rely largely OH land
defenses. If the attacking fleet was
accompanied by thoroughly equipped
aeronautic transports. dirlgibles might
be inflated and sent in over our fort1ti-
cations, dropping torpedoes into them
from the sky at the same time that the
fleet would be making an attack from
the water. Due notice having been
given Of bombardnent. these same dir
igibles might sail over the skYscrapers
of New York. dropping bombs or tor
pedoes into the very light shafts of the
proud structures and wrecking them
completely. IL the dirigibles should he
disabled by shots from the land and de-
stroyed on captured, we should thereby
inhict on the enemy loss OF perhaps
five men and possibly Sl00.000-a loss
trivial as compared with tho damage
done by one explosive dropped from the
SKY. What Is true of New York APP
plies with greater force to San Fran
| cisco or Seattle.
All these possibilities are based part
Nv on the slppositlon that this country
would not be prepared for serious aerial
| warfare. H. however we were az well
prepared as we ought to be within the
| next few years, the possibilities would
/ be different AT the approach OF a
| hostile fleet our air cruisers would be
on the alert. Every move of the enemy
would be reported and as night drew
/ on our air craft would hover near and
/ under cover of darkness make a sudden
attack. dropping torDedoes on their
ships, perhaps down the smokestacks
into the very vitals of the ships. de-
stroying it instantly Or if both sides
were equipped for aerial battle, the
ships of the air might meet in
the sky for the death struggle-and q
battle royal it would be. Each would
be armed with light guns carrying q
bullet or shell which would explode on
| striking even the silk of the gasbag
and throw fire in all directions.
This would ignite the gas In the bal

ljncolr's Birthday.

From the New York Tribune.
The movement in congress to make Lin
coins birthday a federal holiday has been
misinterpreted in many quarters. The
erroneous impression prevails that con-
gress is trying to make February u a
national holiday, and to require its OBJ
servance In all the states. Congress can
decree holidays only for the District of
Columbia the territories and the federal
reservations, and can require their OBJ
servance elsewhere only by military and
civil employees of the government. The
states make their own holidays. Some of
our established holidays, like the Fourth
of July. Washingtons birthday, Christ
mas day and New Years Gay, are so gen
orally celebrated that they may be loosely
referred to as national holidays. But they
are not national and not even general in
the sense of being established by statue
In the federal jurisdiction and in every
state Congress will recognize wide
spread desire to make Lincoln's birthday
a holiday of general observance by adding
it to the federal governments list. which
now includes New Year day, Washington
birthday, Memorial day. July 4, Labor
day, Thanksgiving day and Christmas
day. Eight of the 46 states now observe
Lncoln's birthday. No southern state has
yet accepted IT. But as time goes on the
whole country will be more and more dis
posed to DAY to Lincoln the tribute which

Breaking the News Gently.

On a recent trip of the Mauretania
Captain Pritchard was asked for a sea
tale. Here is the yarn he spun:
"Once upon u time an old lady was
returning from abroad with q parrot,
of which she was very fond. She in
trusted the bird. with many adrnonI-
tons. to a sailor for the voyage.
"Scasickness or something killed the
parrot the third day out. The sailor,
knowing how upset the old lady would
be. could not bring himself to tell her
the sad tidings. but asked companion.
famous for his skill in such matters, to
break the bad news to her very, very
gently. The man agreed to do it,
Approaching the old lady with a
tragical face, the famous newsbreaker
touched his cap and said:
Pm afraid that ere bird o. ycurn
amt goin' to live long. ma'am.'
"'Oh, dear!' exclaimed the old lady
in alarm. Why?
""Cause he's dead!' was the reply"

The Birds Free Breakfast.

"All the birds get free breakfast,
thanks TO the electric light" said Il
lincsman. as he Fastened on his climb

get a free and certain breakfast with

millionairr's daughter, without amy
work or WORRY or uncertainty. comes
down at 10 and finds her grape fruit

The cause is the attraction an cleo
tric light has for bugs. Never a night
but a thousand or more bugs and in
scots kill themselves in the attempt to

electric street lamp Never Il lamp, no
matter how humble, but it has each
dawn a great heap or eorpses at its
feet, insect victims OF love or hunger
