A number of men were one evening
sitting around the stove in country
store talking about the rapid growth
of certain western towns. Among
them was an old man Of the name Of
Nelson, who was commonly called
''the boomer" since he had made sew
eral fortunes booming towns. Being
called upon to narrate some Of his ex-
periences, he told the following story:
One of the towns l doomed / called
after myself-Neilson. 1t was on the
line of projected railroad that was
to cross another projected railroad
I bought all the property at this cross
ing that had been staked out by the
chief engineers Of the two roads and
started my town.
The trouble with new towns is that
they are composed almost exclusively
of men. For awhile Nelson was the
worst place on the face Of the earth.
1t was full of gambling shanties, and
/ couldn't get the men to work be-
cause they preferred to gamble. l
got them together on several occa-
sions, telling them what bright pros
pect we had before US if they would
only be respectable, but that settlers
wouldn't come in so long as they
made the place uninviting. This
would sober them for awhile, but it
wasn't long before they would drop
back to their former condition.
My right hand man was Swede
named Olaf Hendrickson. I was talk
ing with him lugubriously one day
about the immortality of the town
when he said to me:
"Mr. Nelson, you can never make
community of men respectable with
out fair proportion of the opposite
sex. Women are essential to men just
as men are to women, and children are
essential to both. My advice to you il

A FINANCIAL SCANDAL
OF FORTY YEARS AGO

NEWARK, N. j., May S.-A fin
ancial scandal of nearly 40 years
ago is laid bare by an action
brought in the chancery court here
by j. Nicholson Elberts of San
Francisco. Elberts' testimony tells
how he and other promott
1874 planned to provide fictitious
capital for an enterprise known as
the Central Fire Insurance COM
pany of Pennsylvania by acquiring
certificates of stock in various rail-
roads and raising each certificate
so as to have it represented in
stead of single share, a block of
from 100 to 500 shares. Eberts
says he was indicted for forgery
but escaped by turning states evil
dence. He now seeks to recover
new certificates for the stock i'm
pounded by the court in 1874.
Elberts was visibly embarrassed
as he related the circumstances and
he insisted that his offense was a
youthful indiscretion. and that he
has more than atoned for his mis-
deed long ago.
For "a years l have tried to
forget this horrible matter" he
said, but recently | received let
tiers from railroad company re-
opening the matter
Il have been a resident of San
Francisco for many years and no
one in my home city can point a
finger at me, l am highly respect
ed by everyone"

On Outs With Council
Delaware City Mayor Quits

Mayor William Householder. Of
Delaware City. has resigned and has
been succeeded by City Councilman
Thomas T. Vail. The town is agog
over the change.
Householder says the town Council
paid no heed 20 his suggestions and
as he is Justice Of the Peace for
Red Lion hundred he decided TO at
tend the cases brought in by Con-
stable Bill Oaks and let some one
else look after city affairs.
When the resignation was read be-
fore Council the trio of Councilmen
looked az each other in wonder
Mr.. Baton favored Councillor T.
Bayard Heisel as Mayor Household
er's successor But Mr.. Heisel said
Delaware City had one lawyer mayor
and that was sufficient
Harry Rose suggested Mr.. Baton
but he is miller and sells milk. He
knew there would be grist for the
mayoraity mill but he preferred TO
measure out the milk than to mets
out Justice
Finally Councilman Vail was pre-
vailed upon to accept the position.
