The youngsters at the sea wall by the
Aquarium in Battery park derive great
pleasure in watching the wash from pass
ing ferries and tugs In the noon hour
many passersby see thu pillars and chains
ut the edge of the wall and lean against
them. The youngsters watch eagerly, and
presently a big wave comes up with a
slap and dashes sprays over one of the
Ioungers. While the others are wstching
his discontinue following wave hits
the wall somewhere else and drenches
watcher. Then the youngsters howl in
glee. In a few moments the wall is
deserted and the game begins again when
the next tug passes.

teacher In an East Side public school
tells this story: A small Jew was being
tormented by some OF his schoolmates be-
cause he was a foreigner; did not belong
to this country; had no rights here, ETC.
He argued awhile and burst into tears.
He then rushed upstairs to his tenement
home, and in q few minutes was back
carrying a small American flag. Waving
It in the faces OF his tormentors, he
yelled:
''See dot? Amt l it?"
''You is" said one of the boys, and the
subject was dropped Immediately.
Sally Cam, a salesman in New York,

Sally is a "fanciful name for man to

country It leads persons to write him as

has a good deal Of trouble explaining that
he Is man.

Settlements Of lawsuits in court by the
toss Of coin have not as yet come into
common practice, but they may, judging
from a precedent established at New York
last week. Two race-track and stock
market operators were involved in this
suit-the redoubtable John w, Gates and
John E. Madden. Gates had won some
money at the races on a tip from Mad
den, and in return the latter was let into
some stock Gates was interested in, but
he refused at the last to take 1t. Madden
was sued and the case was referred to
a master to take testimony. After Mad
den had testified, Gates proposed that they
toss pennies to see who should pay the
costs OF the reference, and this was done.
Gates won. Then they tossed to deter
mine whether Gates should be paid 50,
to settle the case or should receive nothing,
and Gates won again, the case was closed
and will be so reported to the court.

Bankers, brokers and others are watch
ing with wonder the demolition OF the
twenty two-story building at Wall and
Nassau streets. Stones weighing from 500
to 800 pounds are being lowered from the
upper floors and loads OF bricks are being
sent down. The building is the largest
structure in the world that has ever been
deliberately wrecked in order to have a
larger building erected upon the property.
1t was twenty-five stories high and of
solid structure. 1t would have stood for
100 years, but the Bankers Trust company
obtained the property and two small prop
critics adjoining on both the Wall and
Nassau street sides and decided to erect
thirty-two. story building on the corner.
The great trouble is in removing the stone
covering and the brick walls.

Near the entrance of one of the fashion

there is usually a large crowd at luncheon
time on Saturday, feeble old man in tat

were on their way to their midday meal.
Hating the old man, one of the others
said, Come in and wen blow you off to a

by the Slipping of props supporting an

cut thru the east wall in the basement
which William Lerch. owner of the
building, was having made ready for

"One claim advanced by the COM

two long lists Of representative pub

all street railway companies in the

1910 Railroad Manual. and the other
list including the bonds OF such COM

the New York Commercial and Finan-
c.al Chronicle; and I And that none Of
these gas, electric light, street railway
or other public service corporations

since the year 1907. Even the L. s.

Nevada. Dec. 14.-Iowa people are
more or less familiar with the case Of
Chester w. Rowe, the defaulting treas
urer Of Poweshiek county who left the
country about thirteen years ago. taxi
ing with him $4,000 OF the funds OF
that county. In order to escape pun
ishment he became a citizen of Mex
leo but his heart yearns for the privi-
lege of returning to the states and
viewing the scene of his earlier career
! He is pleading with the authorities OF
the county to have the indictments
against him quashed but is. receiving
but little satisfaction at their hands
1t will be remembered that several
months after he skipped he was To-
Gated by a Pinkerton detective in the
City of Mexico, where he had taken
out naturalization papers. He was en-
gagged in the saloon and restaurant
business. When placed under arrest
he dug up his naturalization papers
and defled the United States author
tiles.
Rowe Served Sentence.
The matter was taken up with the
department at Washington and they
in turn took it up with the Mexican ana
Rowe was eventually arrested under
Mexican law making 1t an of1ence 10
take stolen money or property into
that country. He was found guilty OF
this crime and he was sentenced 10
serve thirteen years in prison az
Bleen.
Rowe served his sentence but by
good behavior managed TO shorten MS
time considerably While in prison ms
meals were brought to him from res
taurant and he received other conslo-
erations and privileges not enjoyed Wy
the common herd OF criminals. Ihese
were secured for him thru the inter-
ventiun Of d railway organization VI
which he was member.
Soon after his release from prison
Rowe went into the employ OF the
Mexican Southern railway and received
rapid promotion until he is now super
intendent of the road and rides about
the country in a private car.
Longs to Return to Iowa.
Upon a recent visit of a party of
Iowans to the City of Mexico Rowe was
found 10 be living in magnificent cas-
tie that had been occupied by Maximil-
liam in his palmy days. These Iowans
were entertained by the Rowes during
that visit and it was then that Rowe
indicated his desire and outlined his
plans for getting the indictments
quashed that he might return TO Iowa.
There are two indictments against
Rowe in Poweshiek and recently the
county attorney received letter from
Rowe in which he offered him $4,000 If
ne would he instrumental in having the
matter quashed. He promptly answer
ed Rowe stating that he had no price
and that as he had violated sacred
trust and voluntarily became a citizen
of Mexico. il was up to him to stay
there or receive the punishment that he
go richly deserves.

EVIDENCE MADE HIM SICK.
Testimony in Bad Egg Case Turns
Stomach Of Magistrate.

Washington, Iowa, Dec. IA very
strange and unusual thing occurred in
the justice court Of J. w. Riley. Will
liam Chapek was made defendant for
violating the Iowa pure food laws by
selling rotten eggs. Schuyler Living
ston, the defendants attorney, was en-
gagged in the discussion of the rotten
egg question with Inspector n. E.
Flynn. The arguments were success
full in bringing out nearly all the tricks
OF the bad egg trade. as well as bring
ing out nearly everything bad tina,
there was in a bad egg.
The story of bad eggs had not been
quite all told when Justice Riley began
to turn pale and became very i'll. He
collapsed and had to be carried from
the court room. After an intermission
he returned, still pale, however, but
able to assess a fine OF SIS and costs
against the defendant. Even the
thought Of rotten eggs is enough to
make some people very i'll.

These men have stated In the market
places Of tho country that in spite Of
the fact that commodities have adj
vanced in price, yet railroad stocks
have advanced even more rapidly than
the prices OF commodities, and far
more rapidly than the stocks OF ex-

tory 1t is interesting and instructive
to learn new methods of economy IN
operation. Mr.. Brandeis has performed
a great service to the American peo-
pie in challenging attention to mod
ern scientific methods Of management
which have recently been adopted by
few large industrial companies IN the
United States. but it Is not necessary
to prove what Mr.. Brandeis has un-
dertaken to establish. It IS not nee
essary for the railways to revolution
lie their methods Of operation. Even
under present conditions. we find this
remarkable increase In net earnings
which have just stated. I find that
the net earnings Of American railways
have not only increased in gross, but
they have increased for every train
hauled one mile. and for every mile
of railroad These figures tell in more
tangible. concrete, and conclusive form
than any broad congratulations or ex-
pressions OF opinion can possibly DO
that railroading in the United states
has been growing more profitable dur
ing recent years than ever before IN
the history of our country.
In the face Of such a record as that
it takes lots of nerve to ask for
higher rates. But l suppose any OF
US are willing to get all We can.
