stranger" was his governor and long
time friend.
Mr.. Cannon takes considerable pride
in the fact that what wealth he has
came through his confidence in the fu-
ture of tho country, and that the very
agencies which brought him money
also contributed to the development Of
communities and to the establishment
of hundreds of happy homes in a
number Of states.
Mr.. Cannon had q brother Bill who
was considered as a youth not strong
physically. Mother Cannon from his
earliest youth instilled into Zoe" that
he must prepare to care for Brother
Bill, which young Joe proceeded to do.
Just about the time that Joe started
In to be prosecuting attorney. having
won election on the Lincoln ticket, he
came homo one day and Brother Bill
dumfounded him by saying:
"Joe, I've taken you in as partner"
Mr.. Cannon says that he accepted
that taken you In" in all its slang
siKnifcance. Partner in what?" he
asked.
''Oh, I've started . bank" was the
amazing reply.
Brother Bill had started q little farm
back In Tuscola- Gradually Bill and
Joe invested the funds in land. A little
later they started another bank in
Danville. Then ono day Brother Bill
decided that the people Of Danville
ought to have a horse car or two, and
he established . street railway system,
which Senator William b. Mckinley
owns today and which he later extend
ed into an interurban system.
When the street cars got running
In good shape, Brother Bill decided
that the town must have gas and

Joe" Cannon's portrait. l.. White
Busby, "Uncle Joe's" secretary, ex-
planned that Mr.. Cannon was born a
Quaker and named after Joseph Cur
ney, a noted English Quaker, then
visiting in this country. He lived
good Quaker until he married Meth
odist school teacher.
It is customary for the House to
vote an appropriation for a portrait
Of each Speaker. The proposal for
s25, 900 for a portrait of Speaker Can
non was made by Representative
Frederick Hicks of New York, who
is himself a Quaker. Then, when 1t
came time to select an artist, Mr..
Hicks picked C. w. Smedley of New
York. who comes of q famous Quaker
family. So the Cannon portrait Is
of an old Quaker member, secured by
a Young Quaker member and painted
by a Quaker.
Busby pointed out that the best
view Of the picture can be had by
turning your back on it. In this way
you look at it in big mirror on the
opposite wall of the gold room and
get the best light and a mellowed
impression.
'Uncle joe is just cutting himself
of from tho pay roll Of Uncle Sam. on
which he has been for forty-six years,
and Of recent years he has been col
lecting $500 q year. While 1t Is
generally recognised that his services
to the United States government have
for many years been worth several
times that amount, yet it is interest
ing to recall that he started out as
a breadwinner with a salary Of 81 a
week as clerk In q country store.

cial feature Of the Cosmos Club, while
its walls are adorned with master
pieces of art. During it's early his
tory, on many occasions, the club
house was thrown open to the public,
the people of Washington being in
vited to enjoy art exhibitions. Lat
terly, as the membership Of the club
has grown and the daily demands OF
the members keep all the space III
use most of the time, public exhibi-
tions have been discontinued. An in
tcresting feature of the Cosmos Club
is the woman's department., where the
wives and families Of the members
are always welcome. Parlors and
dining room are provided for their
convenience.
0NE of the oldest members of the
~ Cosmos Club told the writer that
visit to the club was a. source OF
constant surprise to him. II am
always meeting there some scientist
whom I have not seen for many
years. Hello, John 1 will cry;
where are you from now And he
may answer that he has just returned
from hunting big game in India or
exploring for precious stones in South
Africa Mayhap he Is an agricultural
explorer who has k>en making a de.
tailed study Of the rare and unusual
fruits and horticultural treasures OF
Japan. Perhaps he has been up near
tho arctic circle engaged in surveys
of tho ice foes which threaten steamer

$50 professional hunters who are rid

people couldn't get coal. Brother Bill
figured out that as a matter OF
economy and conservation the cleo
trio plant ought to sell its surplus
steam to the people for their homes,
and as a result of that central heat
ing system was established.
Occasionally Uncle Joe rather
nroudly tells how Brother Bill, whom
he set out to care for, really did most
of the helping-hand business all his
life. Brother Bill died about twenty
five years ago. He fell in q bank
as he reached to pull down q window
shade and was fatally hurt.
Representative Cannon always has
had a weakness for land. He bought
large tracts in Illinois, Nebraska.
Iowa. Arkansas and Mississippi. He
bought when the states were young.
He had faith in them, and when some
of his friends suggested that they
ought to develop. he would show his
conviction on that point by buying
a large sweep of land. He always
sold at q good profit, but invariably
lived to see the same land sold over
again for much higher figures.
He never went out hunting for land
bareains-they just seemed to present
themselves to him. His having grown
up in the great middle west in the
boom days helped a lot. BY his con-
hdence in buying lands he encouraged
others to buy and develop farms. His
farm banks helped to establish thou
sands Of happy homes on productive
farms in a number of states.

Merrimac and was wounded during
the first days fight. Buchanan had
previously served as an officer in the
United States Navy. Here is the
story of the fight as told by this Won
derful old man, a true product Of the
old south:
"The fight between the ironclads
was a clash of the first armorclad
fighting vessels to travel under their
own steam. During the Crimean war
there were several floating ironclad
batteries. 1t was the Merrimac that
first proved the uselessness of wooden
warships and the value of the iron
clads. the forerunner of the present.
day steel warship.
"Our country is rich in historic
events. but. try as you will. 1t is i'm
possible to find any event or series OF
events to overshadow the two days.
more than sixty years ago, when the
ironclad Merrimac met and destroyed
some of the finest warships then
af1oat and then engaged in combat
with the Monitor, also an ironclad,
and demonstrated to the world that
wooden vessels were doomed as war
ships and that it would be necessary
from that time on for all nations to
build armored ships for their navies.
X X *
seTHE Merrimac was built by the
i United States government as
steam frigate. and placed in commits
sion in 1855. She was considered to
represent the best type of warship
possessed by any nation at that time.
The government thought SO much of
her that she was sent on cruise to
European waters where she was
viewed with admiration by repre-
sentatives of the greatest European
powers. The vessel remained in for
eign waters for four years. and then
returned to this country and to the
navy yard at Portsmouth, Va, where
she was placed out of commission.
soon afterward the bloodiest war
in history was fought-the great civil
war. The federal troops evacuated
Norfolk and Portsmouth. and on April
10 of '61, before evacuation. the Mer-
rimac and other ships were disman-
tied and burned to the waterline by
the federals. Scutt1ed and sunk, the
vessels were thought to be safe from
