Judge John f. Hylan, who Is ex-
pected to receive the Democratic nom
nation for mayor of New York City
In today's primaries, has for some
years been a picturesque figure in To-
cal politics in New York. He was
born on a farm near Hunter, N. Y, in
1858, and In early life was employed
as a railroad section hand. At the
age of 81 he decided to seek his for
tune in the metropolis. His first en-
ployment after reaching New York
was as a fireman on the elevated rail-
road. Later he became an engineer.
Wills thus employed he found time to
take the law course at New York Uni
versity. When he got his degree he
went into practice in Brooklyn. AT
about the same time he began to take
an active interest in politics, and
eventually was elected county Judge.
