Holding Up America.

JAMES ]. HILL, on the occasion of his
J seventy-fifth birthday, talked or the
marvellous speed of American trains.
Three men," he said. "a Frenchman,
an Englishman and an American, were
once praising their respective railroads
for an American will praise his railr Dads
abroad, though at home it's usually a
different story
well, the Englishman said:
"Our express trains go SO fast that
the telegraph poles along the line look
like high board fence
"'Our rapides,' said the Frenchman,
go so fast that the stations along the
line seem continuous. like a city block
1.-The American pulled at his cigar
thoughtfully.
"Once. on an American express he
said Il passed a field of carrots, a field
of potatoes. a field of cabbages and a
COW. and the train, gents, was going SO
fast-so very fast-I thought l saw an
Irish stew"

any one British statesman or any Ia
nous man of any other country. wash
ington became famous when very young,
and he was a prolific letter writer. From
111J on people began to save his letters,
so that now new Washington letters are
always appearing and almost any col
lector of consequence has one or more
Washington letters. He wrote the most
of his correspondence with his own hand,
and he was SO methodical that he ac-
complished great lot OF work. 1t was
his habit to rise at ) o clock every morn
ing and to write until breakfast time.
We have ourselves here. in the manu-
script division. about 5000 letters of
Washington, and the collection, 1nclud-
ing the letters to him. numbers consider
ably over 100000
Where did these papers come from?
From various sources. A great many
came from his heirs. When Washington
died his estate at Mount Vernon came
to Gen Bushrod Washington. Later on
a number of the heirs sold the papers
which they had inherited to the govern
ment. Others of the heirs kept theirs
and left them at Mount Vernon. and
when Mount Vernon was sold by Col
Washington, the father of Lawrence
Washington, the papers were taken 10
Alexandria and were deposited in bank.
There must have been about a dozen
barrels of them. At the opening of the
civil war the papers were still there.
but soon after that the bank was burned
down and the papers were burned with
it, This left as the only group OF WASH
ington papers the one which the govern
IT ent had bought 1t formed about two
thirds of the whole.
where are the papers of John
Adams?"
They are in the hands of the Massa-
chusetts Historical Society at Boston,
where are also the papers of John Quincy
Adams They have been deposited there,
and will probably never leave Boston,
although they really ought to be In our
liable They are in the special charge
of Mr. Worthington Ford. who was form
erly. chief of the division. They are
very carefully guarded"
Have you many of the Jefferson
papers,"
Yes. Our collection is numbered by
tens of thousands. Jefferson was very
methodical and his private papers were
almost as volun nous as those of Wash
ington. He was one of the first Ameri-
cans to use press copy, and there are
him. Congress bought Jeffersbn's library,
and it was carried in wagons from Mon
ticello to Washington. The Jefferson
papers were not a part of the library.
They were acquired after Jeffersons
death, and were bought of his descend

DAYS That Are Past.

COUNSEL for one of the railroads In

in New York said at luncheon:
We'll. the poor railroads, at any rate

about that.
''Mr. Vanderbilt said that a man once
called and asked him for "a pass over
the New York Central to Albany.
why do you ask for pass?' said
Mr.. Vanderbilt.
Because I'm SO sensitive the man
answered.
$50 sensitive? What's that got to
do with the matter?
"'Well. I'll tell you. Mr.. Vanderbilt,

and not one of them knows as to what
IL has and what IL has lost. An in
ventory has never been taken. In
deed, there is not country OF Europe
that does not keep its official docu-
ments in better shape than we do.
What is the oldest Official document
in existence
1T is not so very. very old. People
did not begin to write until modern
times. and the earliest written English
document dates back only to the thir-
teenth century. The first English author
who wrote was Chaucer. lie lived in
the fourteenth century. and that Is not
long ago. The earliest modern official
document in any language is in the
archives at Milan. Italy. This was writ
ten on parchment paper about A. ID. 81,
by King Ohio and Queen Agatha There
Is another document written just little
later In the archives OF Dresden. and
another in those of Magdeburg.
Tell me something about the Vatican
collection"
The Vatican is library of itself. II
is composed exclusively of manuscripts
that Is. Of manuscript books written
mostly before the age OF printing. These
books are chiefly religious and are not
individual manuscripts. The Vatican has
the oldest written manuscript. IL long
antedates the oldest official document
which, as l have said, was of the ninth
century. The Oldest piece of writing on
paper dates back TO the second century.
and there is one from the third century.
Both of these are In a perfect state OF
preservation. One OF them Is a copy or
some of virgil's poems. and the other is
a transcript of a prayer"
I'm addition to the Vatican library.
Italy has a number of other valuable
manuscript collections The Library Of
Florence has the papers of Calico. most
of which were written before he went
blind and a few afterward. In the
archives there they have also the papers
of Dante i have seen them all and
they are wonderfully preserved

of luxury as costly wines. Accordingly
I was at loss to account for this re-
markable falling off in their importation.
II could not be that the rich We're getting
more economical with increasing wealth;
1t could only be that they were lavishing
their spending money on some costly
articles other than costly wines.
Then I got hold of the automobile
figures. They are too large and startling
to quote here. but they offered a plain
solution to this matter of the decrease
in drinking wine at S. quart. OF course.
i have no mathematical demonstration
of this conclusion, but TO my mind IL Is
clear that the rich man prefers TO put
his surplus in his garage rather than
his wines cellar There Is another fact
that induces me TO this belief. Drinking
champagne Is the amusement of those
who idle away their time Indoors The
man bitten by the automobile bug, how
ever, doesn't want to spend his time
twisting the stem or a wine glass at "A
club table. He wants TO be out speeding
through the country-and that makes
bottle of champagne less, You see.
Furthermore. he finds BY experience that
any considerable indulgence in liquors
as strong as champagne and its costly
cousins detracts woefuliy from his pleas
ure in handling his car-and also in in
creasing the danger to himself and his
ten-thousand-dollarm machine.
And IL, after a long spin through the
brisk air he feels tired and thirsty on
his return he does not crave a drink OF
the strong and exhilarating effect of
champagne; the fresh air has furnished
him all that he wants If he then in

moisture-supplying type .iike beer or the
mild white wines. He doesn't take this
from any temperance motive, but because
the spin in his car makes him prefer IL
TO TIN stronger kinds.
And so I am certain that ii Is the
that has worked this great
reduction i'm our drinking of costly wines.
That IL must make strongly for temper

the United States and Germany are the

England has adopted this method of

II have been familiar with the patent
