The hoard of public lands and buildings accordingly will not peimtt the ball to he held there and It will probably be in the senate hal! or some other safe j.lace. ' I 1 - .?s DRAKE OIL, WL'LL i'lONUMLfir. There Is nolhlng found in fiction to equal the wonderful story of the mar velous development of the petroleum industry in this country. Perhaps the nearest one might come to It would be found In Scheherzade'a tale of Aladdin's lamp, the magic power thut produced wealth and luxury beyond coniputaiiou. The lamp of Aladdin was no more marvelous than that which burns "Standard, water white, 130 degrees test." It Is not yet a half century Hinco this Industry began. To be accurate. It will be B0 years on August ID, 1909, since Col. Kdwln A. F. Druke com pleted that famous first oil weli r.our the banks of Oil creek, a short dis tance below the present city of Titus Villi. The 49 years since that event have been of the busiest In oil devel opment. The history of the industry Is an aggregation of romances unpar alleled; it is one great romance of vital and Intense interest. . "Progressive Pennsylvania" has been accused of a lack of civic pride. Its monuments are few, though its notable achievements have been many and Its great men leglou. Oildom promises a better record. . A magnificent monu ment, to Col. 10. A. F. Drake stands iu VVoodlawn cemetery. Tltusvllle. Now. a beautiful monument, com memorating the foundation of the In dustry, is planned by Caundota chap ter, Daughters of the American Revo lution, to be erected at the site of the Drake well. It Is desired to have this monument unveiled on the fiftieth an niversary of the discovery that gave to the world a new industry un in dustry that has done much or more to advance civilization as the appli cation of steam. The design of this monument Is shown in our illustra tion and it Is to be provided by the voluntary contributions of the giuie ful "sons and daughters of the oil country." The crowning feature of the monu ment Is to be a flaming torch, illumin ating the globe. What a wealth of suggestion! It tells the story of how the cheap mineral oil from the earth carried the light of Intelligence into the dark corners of earth! Since Drake's dlscoverv the obscure Lin coins of the world have not been com pelled to read by the light of blazing pine knots on the hearth; our Frank lins have not been forced to study philosophy by the feeble Dicker of sputtering tallow candles. Humiliation, however, Is not the whole story of this Industry. From crude oil more than ..'PO porducts are extracted. The pnraflnc wax. familiar to every household, the equally uni versal vaseline, the gasoline that has introduced a new era of power;- the lubricants that make the machinery run smoothly; the naphtha that en riches to brilliancy, all manufactured gas. Iirilliant color dyes, photographic developments, many medical, drugs, come from the compounded fluid call ed petroleum. Natural gas, the perfect fuel. Its supply now an Industry In itself, Is but a branch of the new world opened by Drake's discovery; a world of effort and wealth developed by other geni uses, who followed after. This monu ment will pay tribute to every one of them, becnuse It will be dedicated to the vast and marvelous mining and manufacturing industries of which the Drake well was the foundation. It will be a monument to the race of men who have solved more gigantic prob lems and met more emergencies in 50 years than were ever given In the same space of time to any other race of men to solve. In this short time the men of "oil dom" have discovered a new product, dissolved It Into lis constituent ele ments, devised means for storage, .cre ated vast systems of transportation, delivered the product to the uttormout ends of Iho earth, devised new. ma chinery, conquered physical obstacles and read the book of the rocky strata as ho other men have done. ' From that little beginning of Col. Drake on Oil creek-, a sruaM hole of 150 fert deep, und a' few barrels' of greasy fluid,, has grown, a-world-wide industry. It employs, a million man; walking beams creak lu every cllnu; oil, flows from the Gulf of .Mexico ,'to the Caspian and Lack again; the driller is at work In the cradle-of the Aryan race, In Japan, in the haunt of the wild man of liomeov (This indus try has added' hi Woim. of dollars .of new, clnn wealth to tlm world's toKt In this marvelous half century within, tho life span of men whose hearts are yet young. It well deserves a monument und one built by the men who havo holp-id j " : jw lo create the Industry the men who have rubbed the wonderlel lamp and found gold In tilt h- hands. This duty should not be left to another genera tion. Already there are thousands en listed in this army of modern grease who never saw Hie site on which the old Drake well was drilled with so much pains and patience. Annually hundreds of travelers puss the magic spot and have naught to attract their glance from the car window. Put next year they may see the tall shaft and the torch that, hand in hand with Lib erty, has lighted the world, literally. The following description is given of the design of the Petroleum Me morial: "The monument is In the form of a utoiiollthic Poiio shaft healing ulol't a bronze lantern In the form of a globe. The shaft rests upon n single block of stone, upon the four faces of which are bas-reliefs symbolical of the . departments of ' human activity which have been most affected by (he discovery of oil heitf, light, power and locomotion.-, 'Jiuv base rests upon a. Btylobate of' three high steps. Tho stylubate is in the-center of a paved area siiiitiitpded by a" parapet having at the four corners salient masses, upon the outer surface of which are to be cut ,ltis'iiplfon telllnif of the history of the discovery of oil by Col. Drake and of the evolution of tho In dustry. The whole monument Is to be raised upon a sodded plateau and is to be approached on all four sides by flights of Ft steps. The dimensions of tho monument are as follows: Plateau, 1)4 feet square; platform at parapet line, fi2 feet square; diameter of shaft, 5 feet C Inches; pedestal, 8 feet square; stylobate, 20 feet square; height of plateau, 8 feet; height of monument, fal feet; total height of monument and plateau, til feet. The locution of the old Drake well Is on a sightly spot near the line of the Pennsylvania railroad, so that tho monument when completed can bo viewed by all travelers between Pitts burg and Ituffalo. HIS LIFE A LUCKY ONE. Youngster at Least Had the Great Virtue of Cheerfulness. The following is a genuine essay by a ten-year-old boy: "My life has been a very lucky one. When I was three years old 1 fell downstairs and cut my head. When I was live years old 1 was looking ut some hens and a dog bit my leg. When I was eight I went with my brother lu the trap and the horse fell and threw us out of llie trap; my brother lit on his feet and I lit on the horse's back. Last year 1 was playing, and I ran Into a surrey and cut my eyebrow, and it bus left a mark. One day I went Into the slaughter house and a big sheep ran after me and knocked me down. I have had a happy life." This cheerful acceptance of what, are usually regarded as the ills of life reminds the writer of an old school fellow who took part in the fight at Klandslaagte at the beginning of the South African war. After the engage ment he was taken to the hospital at Pietermarltzbiirg. As soon as he was able he wrote home and sent his peo ple the tunic he had worn in tho bat tle. "You will see," he wrote, "that there are 11 bullet holes in it. but I was awfully lucky, only six of them hit me." Sexes in Antagonism. Woman suffrage has been carried to nji extreme In liuenos Ayres. An Ital ian woman describes the situation In the Argentine city: "A Bon of recip rocal fear seems to raise an Insur mountable barrier between the men und women. Whether at home, In the .street, at banquets and public prom enades, in the theaterg. or schools, the two sexes, as If by a tacit understand ing, keep each other at a respectful distance. What most strikes tho for eigner who walks in Uuenos Ayres, whether he traverse the narrow street where the. . traffic of foot pussengers Is more crowded than In either Imdoja or Pails, or saunter through the broad u venues whore 'train -'eura, cnrrla'grn, automobiles pass and rejiass each other,' Is the ubsence of. woman. . . . Site acts, not as an associate of man, but us a rival, and In llie same house w0 find 'oh antatfonlsfu 'existing be tween husband ami. wife, mother and son." The social reformers of Argen tina are beginning to think that wom en are being too highly educated. They neglect their children nnd household duties. METEORIC CAREER CF NEW MEM BER OF DAMKING FIRM. Why Famous Financier Hat Choien Henry P. Davison for an Aid Suc cess Won by Energy, Integ rity and Brains. New York Among the men who have won their way to fortune and a commanding place In the financial world will have to be written the name of Henry P. Davidson, late vice presi dent of the Firsl National bank, but who on January 1 became IV partner lit the banking house of J. P. Morgan & Co. ' To men of finance lie name of Henry P. Davison Is very . familiar, and stands fur all l hut goes to make up the successful banker and man of affairs, for although but, 41 years of age, Davidson has made himself fell as a power in the money merd. Ilenry P. Davison Is strictly a self made man. Fvery dollar he possesses he made from the raw material of en ergy, hard work, application, honesty and quick intelligence. When about 19 years ago ho came to New York from Itrldgepoit, Conn., he was merely a bright, active, enthusiastic young fel low, who had had a little experience as a bank clerk In his native town of Troy, Pa., and in Itridgeport. He had a few hundred dollars, but his real capital was In his head. The little money he had then can not be considered as even the nucleus of the fortune w has acquired since, for Mr. Davison does not own his suc cess to frugality and saving; ho owes It. to keen business foresight and knowledge of finance, and to the confi dence of moneyed men he has won. lie was born In Troy, Pa., a little town near the northern border of tho state, not very far from lilmira, N. Y. Ills father was a biminess man, and his uncles were the local bankers. Young Davison was graduated from the Troy high school at the age of 15 years, and when he was 10 ho was teaching school, having In his class soino boys older than himself. He kept at this work for a term or two, nnd then entered his uncle's bank as a clerk. There ho got a fairly good knowledge of tho banking busi ness and widened his acquaintance so that In a year or so he got fin offer of a bookkeepershlp from the Poquen nock National bank, of llridgeport, Conn. He gavo perfect satisfaction there, but he himself was not satisfied, for he wanted to get Inlo the larger game and become a New York hanking man. So he sought nnd obtained a position In the Astor Place hank in this city. Ho was only 22 years old, but ho soon became receiving oilier. The Astor Place bank became a branch of the Corn Exchange bank and Davison went to the Liberty National and In. six years worked up from one position to nliother until ho became president of that institution. He resigned to become vice-president of the First National, ami ho ha8 held that Important position for six years, taking ever a more and more active and prominent purt in general banking affairs and having his advice more and more sought by the big men of the financial world. During the business depression and financial disturbances last year Mr. Davidson was a member of tho speclul clearing house committee which mado a searching Investigation Into the af fairs of many financial Institutions, and ho took part In all the Important meetings of the big men of Wall street, notably those called by J. Pier pent Morgan. .' ' Mr. Davison Is also what President Roosevelt would call an outdoor man. He is fond of all; athletic' sports, is a good shot, good rider, good billiard player. What ho does ho doeg with all his heart, and he displays the same energy In his umiibcmontg as in his business. , Ho Is yoftiiger ('lok'fng'lh'ari he Is, al though hlS'SUjoWerleivem facv has a soriotiB cast. I lis. rather determined 'mouth stili shoAvs thofturnor his more Intimate frlpdp kno,y.,htiir, to possess iu largo measure. And J. Iierpont Morgan, as keen a judge of men as may be, having watched Mr. Davison's career and studied his , character ,and. methods closely for, jeaiis, ;1ia,vji(sen hlin for a partner In his big banking house. To Wall street men that is tho highest indorsement which could be given, for they know that it would not be ob tained save by the display of ublllty which but few men possess. 4 U Kidneys Dadly Injured and Health Se riously Impaired.
