"I wish you could have seen Will;am H. Vanderbilt upon one occasion when he thought he was compelled to de ride whether he would spend several millions in the purchase of a railroad or let it go.'' said the late Charles C. Clarke, who was for many years one of the most intimate persona! friends of Mr. Vanderbilt and a vice-president of the Vanderbilt lines. "In order the better to understand the description, I am going to give you, I ought to remind you.” contin ued Mr Clarke, "of the manner in which the Nickel Plate railroad was built. It was promoted chiefly by Gen. Sam Thomas and Cal Brice— we always called him Cal—and we suspected from the beginning that it was buiit with the intent, by a sort of genteel blackmail, to compel Vanderbilt to buy it. It ran from Buf falo to Chicago and practically paral leled the Lake Shore railroad. There did not appear to be the slightest ne cessity for building a railroad there, since the Lake Shore could take care of all the business that was offered. That was the reason why we sus pected that the chief object Brice and Thomas had in promoting the rail road was to unload it at a fat profit upon the Vanderbilts. Just about that time Mr. Vander bilt was having a good deal of per plexity on account of the building of the West Shore railroad, which prac tically parallels the New York Central trom New York city to Buffalo; and he was accustomed to declare that j he'd be hanged if he'd buy the West Shore, and he'd be d—d If he'd buy the Nickel Plate. Yet he bought the Nickel Plate, almost in the twinkling of an eye; and I'll tell you exactly hew it happened, although a part of the anecdote has already been pub lished. "One day I was with Mr. Vanderbilt n his office when some one brought to him a telegram that had come over the company's wires from Buffa lo. He opened it and read it, and then handed it to me. As nearly as I can recollect, the telegram stated that Gen. Thomas and Cal Brice had just left Buffalo in a private car with Jay Gould as a guest, and that they were going to take him on a tour of inspec tion over the Nickel Plate. ” 'What do you think of that, Char .ief asked Mr. Vanderbilt, excitedly. ” ‘I don't know what to think of it.' I replied. ' Well. I know." Mr. Vanderbilt Tried, as he jumped out of his chair and began walking excitedly back and forth. 'They’ve got tired fishing for me and they're going to have Gould make an offer to buy the Nickel Plate and do what he wants to with it. That must be stopped.' "It seemed to me that Mr. Vander bilt was in a good deal of a hurry; so I said that if Gould bought it he w ould only get a roadbed and a streak of rust. " That doesn't make any difference.' he retorted vehemently. ’He mustn't have it. We don't want any more trouble with Gould. I am going to ac cept Thomas' offer instantly, and per haps Gould will learn before he gets through the tour of Inspection that Vanderbilt's got control cf the road.' "Cautious a man as William H. Vanderbilt was. and though wonder fully accurate in his forecasts and judgments, as I almost always found him to be. he yet seemed to be car ded away by this impulse to buy, and as he did not ask my advice. 1 did not give it. But I felt there was some Layman Taught Head of Yale - * M. C. D. Borden Showed Arthur Twining Hadley How to Raise the Bicentennial Alumni Fund cf a Million Dollars. When Arthur Twining Hadley be came president of Yale university, being elected to that office at a young er age than any of his predecessors, he knew that one of the most im portant of the duties that lay imme diately to hand was the raising of the bicentennial alumni fund of one mil lion dollars. For it was hoped and ex pected that Yale would be able to cel ebrate its two hundredth anniversary cot only with formal ceremonies, but by the announcement that a fund of one million dollars had been raised. The young president started out to secure this fund. What was at first enthusiasm on his part was followed by something like despair, until at last he called upon one of the most enthusiastic of the alumni of Yale, M. C. D. Borden of Fall River, Mass the largest cotton manufacturer in the United States. Mr. Borden heard pa tiently the young president's narra tion of the difficulty he had met with in securing pledges. “Arthur,” he said, at last “you are expert authority on economcs and on railroad management and accounting. But you have got something to learn about the way to collect a big fund of money. You never will get vour mil lion dollars if you continue in the way you have begun." President Who Was Forgiving William McKinley’s Unfailing Kindll ress and Tenderness of Heart Il lustrated by an Incident at a Cabinet Meeting. During the entire period that Wil liam McKinley was president of the I'ni'ed States. Lyman J. Gage was sec retary of the treasury, and as such was irought into close official and personal -elations with McKinley. "With the exception of Abraham Lincoln. McKinley, in all probability, had a greater tenderness cf heart than any man who has been president," said Mr. Gage, "and his nobility of mind was the equal of that of any of his predecessors. Let me illustrate by an incident that occurred in a cabinet meeting, and for the occurrence of which I was primarily responsible. "After I had been in the treasury department for some time it was brought to my attention that one of he department's subordinate officials had dared to write for publication an article that, to my mind, breathed in subordination of the highest degree. Quite naturally. I was offended and in dignant. so much so, in fnct. that I i took the first opportunity to call the mention of President McKinley and the cabinet to the breach of discipline. I minced no words in declaring to tbe president that peremptory removal of the off.rial in question was Justified by his disloyalty and the studied insult he had placed in his communication. Then I read in full what the subordinate bad written, observing all the while the president seemed greatly interested When I had finished, the president was silent for a moment, then he said: " ‘Mr. Secretary, it seems to me that if this communication is written in a — * spirit of disloyalty, and if it contains a studied insult, as you believe and de clare, then that disloyalty and that in sult affiects the president of the United States quite as much as they do the secretary of the treasury.’ " ‘That is precisely my view of the matter. Mr. President,' I replied. ‘That i is why I have brought this communi cation to the attention of yourself and the cabinet. I do not believe that It is right, nor for the best interests of the department, to retain in it anyone who is so disloyal and so insulting to the president of the United States. So I desire to receive from you au thority for the prompt and peremptory removal of this insubordinate official.' ‘The president locked at me thoughtfully for perhaps half a minute, and then directed his glance at the other members of the cabinet, one after another. So far as I could fath om their opinions with respect to the situation, they accorded with mine, and it seemed to me that the presi dent also reached that conclusion after he had locked searchingiy at each of his advisers. At last he spcke: “ 'Mr. Secretary.' he said, slowly, ’if It appears to you that this communica tion involves the president as well as yourself, I wish you would let me take it. I will read it carefuily, and then, if I find that your opinion of it is Justi fied. I think I will keep it and forgive the official who wrote it." "With that." concluded Mr. Gage. 1 handed the letter to the president, who put it upon his desk, turned serenely to other affairs of govern ment. and afterwards, to my own per sonal knowledge, actually forgave the man who had dared to be insubordi nate and to insult him.” ' Copyright.

But a few days later he came to me with a woeful face. " ‘Charlie,’ he said, ’that was all a trap. They set it for Gou’.d and for me. and they caught us both. Gould had no intention of buying the road: he was perfectly innocent in the mat ter. New that we have got it, we must make the best of it. but I am sure that if we had waited we | could have got it on our terms, and saved several million dollars.' "Had Mr. Vanderbilt lived a few years longer than he did," concluded Mr. Clarke, whose death occurred a few months ago. "he would have been gratified to know that, after all, his purchase of the Nickel Plate was a wise venture, for it has proved a most valuable subsidiary to our Lake Shore system." “.Copyright. tSiO. by E. J. Edwards. Ail Rights Reserved.) “What. then, shall I do?” the presi dent of Tale asked. “That's exactly what I am going to tell you." Mr. Borden replied. “There's ■ a good deal of human nature to he studied if you're going to raise a large fund of money. Now, what you must do first is to get four or five or even six men to say they will contribute the larger part of the fund. When you have got pledges of that kind, you will be astonished to see how quickly other rich men will fall Into line. That's the human nature of giv ing.” “But where am I to find four or five or six men?” Yale's president asked. “I am going to show you. I will be one of six men to pledge in ail six hundred thousand dollars. You shall have the other pledges within two or three days. Then, when you have them, you will see how quickly others will join the procession, and you shall get your million within a month.” Here was a new philosophy of life for the new president of Yale, But he knew from Mr. Borden's manner that It was a correct philosophy. On the day following Mr. Borden met Frederick W. Yandervilt. an alum nus of Yale. ‘Fred.” he said, “I'd I like to have yon be one of the six who are going to contribute six hun dred thousand dollars for Arthur Had ley’s bicentennial fund.” “It would give me the greatest pleasure." responded Mr. Vanderbilt Mr. Borden next called upon three other graduates of wealth, and he had simply to repeat the request he had made to Mr. Vanderbilt to get their subscriptions. Then, within a few hours, he called upon James J. Hill, whose sons were graduates of Yale “I wont do it.” said Mr. Hill, at first. v/u, jwu lue rrpi j; and after some further conversation, Mr. Hill offered to give twenty-fire thousand dollars. He was told that that wouldn't do. Then he offered to give fifty thousand dollars, but was told that that amount also was too small. Along in the small hours of the morning Mr. Hill yielded, so that within three days the fund of six hun dred thousand was raised. "Take that. Arthur." said Mr. Bor den the next day. "and we'll see if I was not correct." The young president of Yale, going forth with the pledges of six men for six hundred thousand dollars, found that it was ev n as Mr. Borden had said. Other rich men stepped up quickly, so that they might be In time to join the procession: and almost be fore Presider.' Hadley realized it Yale's bicentennial alumni fund o’ a million dollars was secured to the last dollar. (Copyright. IS’.' by E J. Edwards. All Rlgh's Reserved.) __ 1 Benefactor of Mankind.

Anecdotes of French Court 3srrlsters Find Much Difficulty in Keeping Occupants cf the Bench Awake. The centenary of the Paris bar, re cently celebrated at the Palais de Justice, has recalled numerous anec dotes on the humors of the l^w courts. Among others it is told how a well known lawyer, M. Alem Rousseau, was pleading a rather tiresome case and noticing that the judges were paying no attention to him said: "As the court is sleeping I will sus pend my speech." But the judge had just woke up and cried: “And I sus pend you from practicing for six months." Nothing daunted, the law yer retorted: “Well, I suspend my self for ever and ever," and gather ing up his brief and cap he left the court and never appeared again. A Paris barrister, M. Clery, how ever, was more vigorous. Seeing that the president and the assessors were all asleep, he stopped and dealing a tremendous blow on the desk in front of him that woke everybody up with a start, he cried: "Yesterday at this j same hour I was saying—” and the 1 whole bench rubbed their eyes and asked each other if they had really slept through twenty-four hours. The same counsel was pleading at \ ersailles on a cold day and re marked that the judges were all turn ing more and more around toward a stove that gave out a welcome hbat. j The tribunal behind which I have the honor of speaking" brought them all “right about face” at once. On another occasion the judge asked him !b cut his speech short, as the court had made up its mind. Assuming the air of a childlike na tive, M. Clery retorted: “Me right, you good judges, him innocent," and sat down. Though not intended humorously, ! the celebrated criminal advocate Mai tre Henri Robert made a hit when de- 1 fending the matricide Wache de Roo. He produced an act of renunciation signed fcv the prisoner of all benefit from the will of the mother he had murdered and added to the jurv: "Sc if you acquit him he will*go forth miserable and poor, perhaps to Mada gaecar, to repent of an act which he may have committed in a moment of t thoughtlessness.” And the verdict of the jury was 1 typical. They found that he had committed murder, but that he had not killed his mother, although the unfortunate lady was the only person who had been killed. This was in or der to save the prisoner from ten ' years' penal servitude, which is the maximum penalty for parricide, 1 whereas manslaughter with extenuat ing circumstances can be let off with mere confinement. ———— Paradoxical Methods.
