So said the late Frederick D. Tap
per, who was for many years one OF
the leading banking authorities OF
the United States and chairman of
the clearing house association of
New York during the very trying
panic days of the summer Of 1898.
II don't think the country on the
whole realized what the feeling of
leading bankers of the United States
was when President Harrison called
Governor Foster TO the treasury de-
partment as the successor of Secre-
tary Window" said Mr. Happen.
Foster had been out of public life
for some ten or fifteen years. 1t is
my impression that he had been
himself in some financial embarrass-
ment. due, however. to no fault of
his Window had the confidence of
the bankers of the United States,
who were glad that President Harri-
son named him as secretary of the
treasury in 1889, for Window had
done one of the most brilliant strokes
of modern financing when he was
secretary of the treasury in Gar
fields cabinet eight years earlier. He
had, almost by a stroke of the pen,
refunded a very large amount of
government bonds bearing per cent.
interest by the simple expedient of
extending these old bonds on a 3
per cent. interest basis. 1t as mag
nificent piece of work and it was done
under his own discretion. when sec
rotary of the treasury.
Bankers all over the United
States were wondering what Win
dom would do nine years later. when
during his second service as secre-
tary of the treasury he was con-
fronted by the necessity of taking

cessful. He actually extended twenty
four millions of these bonds on 2
per cent. interest basis and he paid
off twenty-six millions.
This exploit gave him a high rep
utation, although I was afterwards
understood that this was a plan which
Secretary Window had in mind.
And il was for this reason that
when. in the early winter of 1885, Sec
rotary Foster said in a public address
that it might be necessary for the
government to sell bonds IN order to
replenish the treasury gold. his warn
ing was taken very seriously, for he
had justified our confidence in him as
a man of very great governmental
financing ability"

Virtually he was the real head of the
Morgan enterprises for some time pre-
ceding the elder mans death.
He is five feet ten inches in height,
is broad OF shoulder and of massive
build. having lines suggestive of great
physical strength. He is quiet and di-
rect in his manner of speech. He has
the large Morgan head. small deep set
eyes, heavy under jaw. prominent
nose and calm. quizzical expression.
Jack Morgan was born in New York
city in 1867. He was the only boy in
the family. AS a student in Harvard
he exhibited quiet, studious habits.
with thorough proficiency in various
sports and Il democratic spirit. His
classmates say lie did not seem over
burdened with thoughts of his impor-
lance as heir to p%rodigious wealth. He
graduated in 1889. In 1890 he married
Jane Norton Drew. They have two
sons and two daughters-Junius Spen-
Ger, Henry Sturgis. Jane Norton and
Frances Tracy. Junius Morgan is now
in Harvard.
Mr.. Morgan was with the London
firm in which his father was interest
ed. which had the name of J. S. Nor

his grandfather. During those years
in London he showed his fine ability.

1t was during the trying times of the
panic that Mr.. Morgan exhibited his
worth. acting as aid to his father and
offering judgment which the elder Nor
gan dared not accept from wen more

Morgan had any of the frivoli-
ties that are generally expected of sons
of the very rich. Though football, golf
ing and kindred sports engaged his at
tentiOn. he never carried his exploits
in them to the point of the enthusiast.
He took up yachting as his principal
hobby in recent years and has given
attention also in the search for treas

young Morgan is even a greater judge
of art than his parent was.

Green on the SpIeen.


Matthew Green. an English poet, was
subject to attacks of spleen. After
trying almost numberless remedies he
at length conceived himself able to
treat it in Il philosophical spirit and
therefore wrote THE Spleen" a poem
which advertS to all its forms and
their opposite remedies in a style Of
comic verse resembling Hudibras and
yet eminently original. 1t abounds in
spirited couplets. of which the follow
ing are fair samples:
Experience, Joined to common sense,
To mortals is a providence.
Happy the man who, innocent,
GrieVeS not at ills he can't prevent.
Sufficient wrecks appear each day,
And yet fresh fools ire cast away.

pont Morgan, Jr., is looked upon as Il
thoroughly capable successor to that
great money king.
MI. Morgan the elder was seventy
six at his death. The younger man is
forty-siX, and but for the difference
that the thirty years of age had con-
tributed in the guise of a stoop to the
figure Of the father and the indefinable
other marks of time the two might
have been mistaken one for the other.
1t is a matter of unanimous opinion
among the %tinanciers of Wall street
that Jack Morgan. or Young j. P
as the successor is called, has other
personal attributes than looks identical
with those of his illustrious sire. He's
a chip from the old block" is the con-
sensus of opinion.
Mr.. Morgan has had a long expert
ence in the active direction Of many
of his fathers great interests and has
learned and displayed prodigious knowl-
edge in the ways of finance.
For years the question in the street"
had been would the younger man de-
velop the ability of the elder, but al
ways the figure of the elder so COM
pletely dominated all others in the
great banking enterprise of their name
that no adequate estimate could be
made. Finally. however. there came

A Fishing Spider.

A peculiar spider that is found in
parts of South America. principally in
the vicinity Of Buenos Aires, catches
fish at certain seasons of the year. In
a shallow part of the stream it weaves
between the stones a double sided or
funnel shaped net, into which. running
upon the water. it drives little tad

"PAMTAskIRTW o, VAIN . WOMAN, WHAT IS NEXT?

Chicago.--Trousers that are not trousers, skirts, but a com- binatiOn of both--the trOuser- ine--will be offered by Chicago dressmakers as the "cure" for that naughty, naughty but pop ular slash skirt.
 Hereafter modern woman will pull on her ''pantaskirt" over her feet, not over her head. The dreams of many decades are coming true. The woman is go- Ing to wear the trousers. The modistes say "let her have 'em and that settles it."
 E' When the Chicago Dressmak- CTS association, which is deter- mined to make Chicago styles THE styles of the nation, opened warfare upon the little slash that first disclosed only an instep, then an ankle and finally--well, some are covered by lace inser- tion--its members began to search for a respectable, yet sat- isfying substitute.
 Everyone knows that trousers are respectable and, if on the man, why not on the woman?
 The newest in feminine limb coverings is just a great faring ankle length pair of pantaloons so covered with dcapery that, on the street, one would never mo- tice them at all. Trousers and drapery are all one, and there is no Mexican slash in the trousers, either.
