it was full of the very defects and
lacking the high literary qualities
which characterize dictated manu-

with my own hand, and I expect to
complete the entire work without the
assistance of an amanuensis, except

How Hayes Got Rid of Bores

OF say one or two persons who are
received in the library or cabinet
room. When l first came here, this
was one of the most trying of my ex.
periences. Sometimes it was very
difficult to convey hint to the caller
or callers that my time was occupied,
and that / should be glad if they
would depart The president should
be especially careful about hurting
the feelings or wounding the pride
of anybody. But at last I hit upon
plan which has worked admirably"
The president turned in his chair as
though, to look out from the rear win
dows of the White House upon the
broad sweep of lawn, and in the di-
rection of the unconpleted Washing
ton monument.
AFTER think the call has been rea-
sonably long, turn towards the win
dow, as you see me now, and l try to
say in a pleasant way: Have you
seen the Washington monument since
you have been here?' Usually, the
answer is that it has only been seen
from a distance. Then / say: Well,
you should go down, crossing the
White House grounds, If convenient,
to within such distance of the monu-
ment as will give you a very good
idea of it. No one should visit Wash
ington without getting a near view of
the monument. You know, presidents
change, but the monument, when COM
pleted. is to be there for all time
This hint usually has the effect
desired. My callers feel compliment
ed that should take the trouble to
suggest to them some one of the
Washington sights that would interest
them, and within few moments they
rise and bid me good day. I have
rarely known the expedient to fail"
Again the president smiled. And
then, apparently as an afterthought,
he added:
"Of course, you will not make any
mention of this little confessional
least, not until after l have retired
from the presidency"

How the Financier Lost Track Of
$4,000 in Stock which He Had
Deposited as Security for Loan
Year Before.

One of the intimate business asso.
ciates OF Commodore Vanderbilt was
speaking to me one day of the remark
attributed to the Commodore that 1t
was much easier to make fortune
than to keep it.
THE Commodore did say that not
only once, but many times" this friend
said. And he was also fond of say
ing that the first $1,000 was the hard
est to make and keep. Generally,
when that remark is. quoted as having
been made by the Commodore. the i'm
portant part of it is omitted, namely,
that it is hard to keep the first $1,000
after it is made.
''One day the Commodore came into
the office of the finance officer of the
New York Central, and asked that Of
fetal how much money he was car
rying. The latter named a sum.

Them Out to See the Washington
Monument.
Whenever I read of the great nerv-
Gus strain that is put upon modern
president of the United States by
reason of the calls paid to him not
only by Office seekers and their back
ers, but also by the thousands of per-
sons who eimply want to see and
shake hands with the president, am
reminded of the little trick that Pres
ident Hayes confessed to me that he
employed to rid himself of callers.
The afternoon in the latter part OF
his administration that I called on
him he received me in the library OF
the White House. Strangely enough,
he appeared to have some leisure, and
was even disposed to chat little
about matters of common interest.
"Mr. President" said, after a
time, you must often get very weary
on account of demands made upon
you, your time and your strength, by
those who call upon you with no other
purpose Lnan TO pay their IespeClS anu
to go home saying that they have
seen the president"
President Hayes was holding in his
hand a gutta percha penholder, at
the end Of which was gold pen. He
began to tap his desk with it, and at
the same time smile lighted his
countenance, as though my question
had suggested, instead of unpleasant
recollections, some which aroused his
sense of humor.
"Of course, it is sometimes little
exhausting to stand and receive with
q handshake hundreds OF persons
whom you have never met" he con-
fessed. But always recall my own
feeling-at least the feeling had
when I was a young man-that the
president belongs to the whole peo-
pie, and that they have the right to
make his acquaintance. And really,
I do not think public receptions are
so trying as frequently are the visits

Fortune Vanderbilt Forgot

tho Commodore, you've got good
deal more than that. Figure and see II
l am not right
THE report was speedily made, and
1t showed that the Commodore was
within few hundred dollars of the ex.
act amount of money on hand. There
were not many details which escaped
him, and when he mentioned the sum
which was in the company's treasury
or on deposit, he was certain that he
could not be far out of the way. Ii
seemed to please him that he had
caught us mapping. Then, after mo.
ment, he said
THAT is altogether too much money
to be lying idle. You ought to put it
GU. somewhere on short notes or ia
some way, so that it will be earning in
terest instead of lying idle
You see, the Commodore had
learned lesson year or two before.
One of the officers of the company had
said to him: Commodore, the New
York Central doesn't pay dividends
oftener than once in six months. Don't
you see that you are losing the inter-
est on a lot of money on that account
If we paid once in three months, your
dividend would be available for earn
in quite pretty penny"
1.-The Commodore had never thought
Of that, but he saw the point at once
and gave the order that from that time
on the dividend should be quarterly.
He was undoubtedly thinking OF
that experience when he declared that
the railroad treasury was carrying too
iAuch idle money.
Well, Commodore one of us asked,
what use would you suggest that we
make of this money? We will want it
at dividend time
Why, will borrow it of you my
SELF the Commodore replied, provided
you will accept New York Central
stock as collateral security
He chuckled for moment or two,
but we saw that he was in earnest, and
he did borrow the money, and left
block of nearly two thousand shares of
New York Central stock as security.
Nearly year later the Commodore,
plainly greatly puzzled, appeared at
the desk of the finance officer, and
asked how many shares of New York
Central stock he owned. The officer,
after looking at the books, told him
the precise amount.
EYES, admitted the Commodore.
that agrees with my own books. but I
can't find all the stock. There's a
block of nineteen hundred and fifty
shares missing. haven't the remotest
idea of what has become of it.
Immediately there began a search
for the missing stock, which lasted
several days. At last, well, where do
you think we discovered that equiva-
lent OF $4,000? In an inner corner of
the big safe, just where it had been
put when the Commodore gave it as
security for the dividend money that
he had borrowed. There it had re.
NAMED ever since. The Commodore
had clean forgotten to ask for the re-
turn of it when he gave a check for
the entire amount of his loan a few
days before the money was needed to
pay the next quarterly dividend; and
none of us had thought to remind him
that he was neglecting to exercise the
plainest sort of business common
sense"
