Al 425 600 for the Fragonards. Henry
c. Frick bought them. and they were
soon removed to his home.
These pictures came into the pos
session Of the elder Morgan in lsOz'
and were exhibited in the London
Guildhall for a time, whore they caused
an artistic sensation. Then they were
placed in the Morgan home at Princes
Gate. London. At his death they were
removed to the Metropolitan Museum
The third shock to art lovers came
I
tion Of miniatures had been sold. This
comprised more than 300 examples and
was especially rich in Holbein's vorks.
However, Mr.. Morgans decision to
rid himself OF some Of his treasures
was corfned only to the works OF art.
for he announced that his librery, at
AZ East Thirty-sixth Street, would not
be sold. In IL are such treasures as
the Ashburnham Gospels and many il
Illuminated manuscripts Of great value.
Furniture and Sculptures Go.
The third purchase, made public by
Duveen Brothers on April 10 of this
year, was that Mr.. Morgan had dis
posed of his eighteenth century fur
niture and sculptures in the loan col
lection at the museum for about S4,-
100000 This occupied almost two en-
tire galleries, and was begun in 1895,
when Mr.. Morgan's father had laid the
foundation for the group that was to
include Louis XVI tapestry suite and
the Louis XIV suite of Rose du Barry
gobelins, the panels woven from the
/ finest silk thread to represent the
/ Fables de la Fontaine.
! Although a member Of many clubs,
Mr.. Morgan has kept well to the rear
in society matters. His New York
homo is at the corner Of Madison Ave-
nue and Thirty-seventh Street, on the
Same block as his fathers. This is
filed with art treasures, in spite Of
the sales of most Of his collections.
He has his country home at Glen Cove,
Long Island, and besides town house
at IL Grosvenor Square, London, he
purchased in 1911 from Colonel Will

how much Il was In the younger Nor
gan's debt. His control of j. P. Nor
gan & Co. was built up gradually, and
when the senior partner died, his son
was ready to step into his place.
Mr. Morgan was elected to succeed
the late H. II. Rogers in the direct
rate of the United States Steel Corpora
tion in May, 1909, and few months
later was chosen as a director of the
National City Bank after the death of
F. H. Hartman. When four years
later his father died, he quietly stepped
in, and there was no change In the
policy Of the banking house. The Sc.
Nor Morgan's vacations had increased
percepti6ly each year and the son was
left in control in his absence. He
was then heralded as a worthy sue
cessor to his father.
The fnancier gave one Of his terse
replies in September, 1913, when his
firm announced that it had withdrawn
as financial agent for the New Haven.
Asked who would succeed his concern,
he replied, simply, 1--WE are through"
But he retained his place in the roads
directorate, it was announced a day
later.
The decision to retire from the New
Haven was followed four months later
by an announcement provoked by the
change that had come over public sem
timent regarding interlocking directo-
rates. This stated that Mr.. Morgan
and four members Of his firm had
left the directories of more than
thirty corporations in which the com
pany had been interested. Included
In these were the New York Central,
the Steel Corporation. the American
Telegraph and Telephone Company and
several banking concerns. OF the thir-
ty, Mr.. Morgan himself had been a
director of eighteen.
Quit Other Directorates.
This move was commented upon as
victory for the policies IF President
Wilson, and Democrats hailed with JOY
the surrender of the money trust" TO
his doctrines. Soon there followed his
resignation from the Western Union
board, which Mr. Morgan said was in
line with his plan TO limit the directo-
rates of which he had been member.
Just = little more than a year ago
Charles S. Melen came forth with
charges against the elder Morgan with
respect 10 his connection with the New
Haven road. The former president of
the railroad system alleged that the
elder Morgan had concealed certain
facts that he, Mellen. should have
known. The son stoutly denied the
statement and said: Every one who
knew my father knows this to be I'M
true"
He also volunteered 20 face an eK-
animation on New Haven matters, and
offered TO waive immunity and present
the facts as he had become acquainted
with them. Within a month after his
reply 10 Mellen, two of the roads di-
rectors cana out for the banker and

BRADLEY THEATRE, PUTNAM.
Birth of a Nation,

In motion pictures one always gets the original cast, which is one point worth considering when The Birth of a Nation comes here Jan. 3, 1, 5, mati- nees daily at 2.15, evenings at s.
 1n producing The Birth of Nation, at present doing sensational business all over the country. the selection of play CTS must have been a most trying and serious problem for MT. Griffith, as the range of players and characters and the work they had to perform covered a multitude of things that could not have been imposed upon ordinary workers in drama and musical com edy.
 The Birth of a Nation is the greatest sensational success in stage annals of the world. For the first time in film specacles one sees in a single master piece 5000 scenes of gigantic magni- tUde, 18,000 characters, 5000 horses, all in a production which cost a little over $500,000 to produce.
 Cities were built up and then de- stroyed by fire. The biggest battle of the Civil war is re-enacted. Ford's theatre. Washington, is reproduced to the smallest detail of the Lincoln tragedy. A series of wild Ku Klux rides are shown that commandeered a county for a day and cost $10,000. Women's dresses used 12,O0O yards and ku Klux costumes 25,00O yards of cloth. Wonderful artillery duels in which real shells, costing $SO apiece, were used; miles of trenches; thou sands of fighters show war as it real ly fs." Night photography of battle scenes, invented and perfected at a cost of $5,000, is shown. A musical score for an enlarged orchestra, per eectly synchronized to the thousands of distinct and individual sounds, per feet to the instant, adds still more to the production, making altogether the most stupendous dramatic and spec tacular enterprise ever conceived by the brain of man.
 When The Birth of a Nation comes to the Bradley theatre for its engage ment of three days. every man, woman and child should be permitted to view this phenomenal triumph, which may never be duplicated, and certainly will not for a number of years.

DAVIS THEATRE.
Three New Vaudeville Acts Today and Triangle Supreme Photo Plays.

Notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather the Davis theatre has been packed to capacity at every per formance this week and the reason is not hard to find. The Triangle photo plays have made a hit with the local theatre goers from the start and have proven that they are the great est and best pictures on the market today. In offering this programme to the people of Norwich the manage ment feel sure that they were giving the public something that was worth While at prices that cannot be euualI- ed anywhere; and the result has been very satisfactory to everyone The feature. today is The Irish Strain, a six reel Ince production, featuring Dus- tin Farnum, and the two reel Key stone comedy, called A Game Old Knight, featuring Charles Murray and a great cast of Keystone favorites.
 There will be three new vaudeville acts today and the headline attraction is Mason, Wilbur and Jordan, three men, in Q novel comedy pantomine acrobatic offering called A Soldiers Dream. Another good act is Heine Wasnhurn and Goar, two men and a and comedy act introducing some old time minstrelsy. The third act is NaGeIyn Shone and Co.,, a comedy singing and talking act that is differ cnt from anything ever seen or heard here. With the vaudeville and Tri- arys@ Photoplays this makes a show that cannot be seen anywhere in the country for the money. There will be e change oc pictures tomorrow and tl.e fsosIF+s is Theoda Eara the famous vampire woman, in her greatest tri- unph, Carmen, Q i've reel Fox produc- tion, and conceded by the critics to be the finest photo play achievement ever seen on g picture screen.
