Burnham, who bids fair to go down into history as the city build CT of the New World. In Brooklyn the new movement all came about simply enough. It was mere matter of the Hills imagina tion and the gatling fire of Hil1is rhetoric. The doctor was preaching a series of sermons on great cities and in the course came to the home city, whereupon, with some as-1 surance 1t must be confessed, he took for his text Johns vision of the New Jerusalem coming down out of heaven. Upon this text the doctor waxed very eloquent. He managed his appeal to civic pride skillfully. He told them Manhattan could never grow any more; that 1t was a beautiful little cherry stone; but while you might carve cherry stone 1t remained a cherry stone still. Brooklyn, now, the doctor eA- plained, had room to grow-it could expand clear to Montauk Point, some 40 miles or SO; and backed this up with quotation from Sir Charles Dilke. who. after traveling the whole United States over, had predicted that Brook lyn would be the largest city In the world, with the arch and entrance to the country on the eastern end of Long Island"

Distinsuished Railroad Man Dead

Henry Fink, who died at his apart ments in the Hotel Plaza, New York, last Monday, was an exceptionally able railroad man." said member of the Chamber of Commerce. "He was in his eighty-first or eighty-second year-the newspapers differ-but he was in active service to the last, being at the time of his death chairman of the board of di- rectors of the Norfolk and Western. He was for several years president of the Norfolk and Western.
 MT. Fink was born in Germany ana was educated at the polytechnic schooi at Damstadt. On coming to this country his first railroad work was as a rod man and transit man for the Western Mary land For three years he was resident engineer of construction for the Parkers- burg branch of the Baltimore and Ohio. Later on he became resident engineer of construction on the old Norfolk and Pe- tersburg road. He was master of trans portation of the same road until 1851. when he became superintendent of the Soutlside and Virginia and Tennessee roads Those names must sound familiar to the older Virginians hereabouts.
 'From 1s71-76 MT. Fink was superintend- ent of transportation of the Atlantic, Mis- sissippi and Ohio, now the Norfolk and Western, and was receiver and general manager of the same system and for two years thereafter was vice president and general manager of the Norfolk and Western.
 Tn the sos he was vice president and general manager of the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia. For a short time he was vice president of the Richmond and Danville, now the Southern railway. From 1S9O-93 he was vice president of the Cincinnati, New Orleans and Texas Pa cinc, popularly known as the Cincinnati Southern (Queen and Crescent Route), and he was at the same time vice presi- dent of the Alabama Great. Southern.
 When I was in close touch with the railroads in the sos, MT. Fink was re- garded as the best all round railroad en- gineer and transportation man in Amer ica, He was also regarded as an expert in traffic business. Few men in that day combined a familiar knowledge of all de- partments of railroading as did MT. Fink His education in the old country had been thorough. Personally he was very pleasant gentleman"

SUPERIOR TO CALIFORNIA

Los Angeles, March 7.-"The AL
mighty left this corner of the earth
until the very last when he was build
ing the universe, and when he got
around to it all he had left was sand
and climate, so he just threw these
together and called it California, :"
said Col. Lee Slower of WATERFOWL,
S. D., in the course of an address at
the annual picnic snd reunion of the
South Dakota society here. Some of
the colonel's hearers were radical
champions of California, and they
are debating with themselves whether
to resent his caustic illusions or
laugh at them.
"They blast out a wheelborrowful
of sun baked adobe, mix it with phos-
phate and potash, pour water on it,
then brag of their soil, their irriga-
ton systems and their ability to pro-
duce great crops. Think of Cali
fornian with sprinkling can on one
arm and a basket of fertilizer on the
other, approaching man from South
| Dakota to talk about irrigation and
soil. Sand and climate were all you
had out here in the beginning, and
climate and sand are all you have
here now.
"For heavens sake, stop trying to
tell us about soil and crops. You
can afford to let us talk to you about
those subjects. And our climate is
what produces that greatest of all
crops-healthy, earnest, active, loyal
men and wonderland they are not
produced at their best in any other
climate on earth. Why, your Cali
fornians had to wait until a snappy
lot of fellows from our climate came
along and taught them how to utilize
the few good things they had here
