Town Clock That Has
a Peculiar History
Perhaps no clock in America hae a
Qore interesting history than the
m in the steeple of the city hall and
narkot house at Alexandria Va It
fas installed as the purchase price of
gambler
In the days befqre the war Alexarv
Iria was known by the sporting fra
ernity as a pretty rapid place But
n those good old days it was square
am os and no cheating in the town
5nce however Alexandria was vlsitod
y Beveral professional gamblers from
he Southwest in search for dupes
md a respectable citizen in an evil
iour fell into the snare they set for
ilm After a series of adverse games
ye found himself fleeced out of Bome
hing like 3000
He paid without any bickering but
lot very willingly Then a lucky
bought enabled him to take his re
venge on the chief blackleg Somo
aow or other he learned that there
was an old law in Virginia estab
lished while she was yet a colony In
jvhich It was provided that if any man
ould not show that he was pursuing
jome lawful means of obtaining a
livelihood he should be sold or hired
jut at auction to prevent his main
tenance becoming chargeable to tho
town
Going before a Justice of the peace
He citizen entered a complaint against
he gamester The man was arrested
tried and condemned to be sold at
public auction At first he was dis
posed to treat the matter as a huge
There was a president of a western
concern who was asked to come to
New York and see J Pierpont Mor
gan Mr Morgan and his associates
in a large deal which he was en
gineering desired control of the con
cern of which the Western man was
the executive head This gentleman
whom we may call Thompson was a
large man in his state the thing he
was running was immense from the
local point of view
Mr Thompson arranged to come
East It was an occasion of moment
He spent a week in studying details
had all his heads of departments pre
pare voluminous reports which he
went over and over again and which
he thrust into his trunk ready to
flash on Mr Morgan at that point of
the long drawn negotiations where he j
was sure they would have an oveiv
powering effect
When the fated hour of departure
arrived Mr Thompson said to his
manager This business will take at
least a week perhaps more You
can always reach me at the Waldorf
but if it is a matter of importance
you can telegraph me at Morgans
office
gotiating for a couple of hours each
day
On the appointed hour Mr Thomp
son left his cab and climbed the short
flight of stairs at Wall and Broad
streets up which so many money men
have gone He had left hia docu
ments at the hotel as he did not sup-
5do but he found out his mistake
whn he was taken to a public stand
and put up for sale
The victim started the bid with
Ono hundred dollars
Xsro hundred said the gambler
And so gamester and victim went
on bidding until the amount had
reached 2000 Then the gambler
begged to be let off pleading poverty
but he pleaded in vain
There was no alternative The gam
bles must either be forced to labor
under the supervision of the man who
had small cause to love him or he
must go on bidding for himself He
was actually compelled to do this un
tfi the sum had reached 3500 Then
he was knocked down to himself and
permitted to leave the town The clt
iaen gave the proceeds of the sale to
tho city to be used for putting a clock
in tbe town hall
The building was torn down a few
years ago to make room for a larger
and more impressing one Not
many of the citizens knew the
peculiar history of the clock and
steeple but Capt Edward Dan
gerfleld was one who did He told
the building committee that he was
particularly desirous of having the
old clock which had done faithful
service so many years repaired and
placed in the steeple of the new build
ing and he was willing to foot the ex
pense His wishes were carried out
and to day the peoplo of Alexandria
still have their famous clock
How Pierpont Morgan
Accomplishes a Deal
pose they would be needed on the
first- day
He sent in his card Mr Morgan
would see him immediately
Glad to see you Mr Thompson
How about this business said the
boss of financial America We have
made up our minds what we can da
We will give so much for the con
cern payable so-and-so We wani
you to remain where you are at so
nMich per year We will keep B and
L and D We wont need X P and
J You may want some time to
think this over Will you let me
know by 11 oclock to day
But I had expected began Mr
Thompson I had thought I have
some documents I would like
Thats all right Mr Thompson
We have all the facts we need I have
told you what we will do we will dc
no more I dont want to be abrupt
but It will save time to come righi
down to business Can you come in
at 11
Me Thompson thought he could in
fact that was about all he could cali
up to say at that moment Like a
wise man he went away like a wiser
one he walked in at 11 and said 1
I will probably be there fc q 0ffer Mr Morgan especially
as it was nearly 2uuuu more tnan
he aad his associates had set as theii
eeHlng price
Tbe next morning he started foi
homo and his board of directors
nearly shook his arm off in congratu
lattng him on his brilliant financial
success
Chase for Lost Bill
Was Well Rewarded
ne was portly and prosperous an
alliterative state of affairs that
seemed to give weight to his words
Therefore the little band gathered in
front of an up town hotel and which
aad watched with interest and
laughed with mean delight at the
man who chased his hat two blocks
in one of those sudden gales listened
with respectful attention to tbe port
ly man who had laughed louder than
the others and who led the way to
the cafe bar
-That hat chasing game reminds me
of a peculiar thing which happened to
me when a boy he began T was
brought up on a farm in this state
and was one of those happy-go-lucky
youngsters always in trouble and
with a happy faculty of getting out of
scrapes
One day my father gave me a 8
bill to go down to the village and
buy some things for the farm Boy
like I started off holding the biH by
the corner and letting the wind flap
it about my fingers There camera
sudden puff and the bill was torn from
my grasp I saw it fly over a bush
Limit to All Things
During the excitement of Peace
Night at Oxford England four or
five undergraduates surrounded a
young fellow and a girl and in the
excess of their patriotic fervor be
stowed upon the damsel one by one
innumerable and enthusiastic kisses
When it came to the last mans turn
for a second round the girls com
panion opened his mouth for the first
time and with Bacchanalian affability
and exceeding slowness exclaimed
When youve quite--done thats
