New News Of Yesterday
An Appeal Which
Reached Home
pI holland

IL was reminded this morning by
something that happened in my Office
of an incident with which William
.H. Vanderbilt was prominently asso-
ciated and which furnished fairly
good sidelight upon some features of
his character and personality said
the late Charles c. Clarke. who was
for nearly fifty years associated with
the Vanderbilt family in the build
ing up and operation Of the Wander
bilt railroad system.
"One of the several almoners to
whom Mr. Vanderbilt referred each
day the appeals for loans or gifts
that came TO him found one morn
ing a letter dated from a city in the
midwest which contained a new and
lunprofessional begging scheme. AL
most all the appeals which were made

nized as those Of professional beg.
gers. He therefore put this letter
aside, thinking it might amuse Mr..
Vanderbilt to read il.
AT the first convenient moment,
the almoner gave the letter TO Mr..
Vanderbilt. saying: I thought you
might like to see this letter, because
it is out of the usual run
"As soon as MIR. Vanderbilt read
the letter there came a whimsical
smile to his lips and he said. Ask Mr..
Clarke to atep into my office as soon

derbilts office. and had hardly
reached the threshold and closed the
door when he said to me- Didn't
you go with me on an inspection trip
to Chicago six or seven years ago,
when I bought a horse from a Michi-
gan member of congress?'
Il told Mr.. Vanderbilt that I remem-
bered that horse and the importantly
of the congressman who wanted to
sell it.
"Still smiling. Mr Vanderbilt asked
me if he got the best of the bargain,
and in reply | said: What a ques-
toni Did you ever get the worst of
one when you bought a horseg
He then said that the man had
written the letter which he held in his
hand. saying that he had got the best
horse of the kind in the West for at
least one thousand dollars less than
ne was worth. The man complained
bitterly of his lot. He had lost al
most everything he had by going into
politics.
The politicians bled him after they
had nominated him for congress, anC
it would have been cheaper for hin
if he had been defeated because his
single term in congress cost him prac
tically all he possessed.
'Mr. Vanderbilt asked me what
thought o. the letter and l said tina
was sure that the man was tellinl
the truth. l was also sure that tn
horse was worth a thousand dollar
, more than was paid for him
