Thn Philadelphia correspondent of the
St. Louis Globe-Democrat says that tlicro
arc 1,600 building societies In Pennsylva-
iiia , and COO of them arc In Philadelphia.
Of the GOO.nt least COO are in uctivo opera
tions the others are being closed up. The
first of those societies was organised in
ti suburb Frankfort in 1831. To-day
the ownership of 60,000 homes is the
practical result in Philadelphia. Fifty
thousand householders In this city payne
no rent because of thcso societies.
A visit is suggested to tlio city of homes ,
nml a study of the practical operations of
the plan. Where can n better beginning
1)0 ) nmilo than Catnong the no\vsnup'r
men ? Tlicro are more provident workers
than those who win bread between the
mansard and the basement of the print
ing hotiso. There may bo some who are
less provident than thcso. At any rate ,
an id < m which has put his own roof-lrco
over the head of the edltor.of the reporter ,
of the compositor and of the pressman
may bo said to have stood a pretty good
tust.
SIXTY1 HOJtr.S AND ? l)9,000. )
And what docs the inquiry show ? Jlio
unanimous opinion of the newspaper
men of Philadelphia is that the building
pocioly is n good thing. Two out of over y
three men employed in various capacities
about the printing houses speak from
actual experience as shareholders in
thcso organizations. The employes P *
the Public Ledger have had two of th > c
societies limited in membership to tnat
oillco. Ono was Public Ledger No. 1 , the
other Public Ledger No. 3. Uoth were
worked out to a successful conclusion in
about ulovon years. Those who put in
§ 1150 lit the rat of a dollar a month drew
out $200 in cash. Those who borrowed
on their shares paid C per cent for the
money and received their mortgages can
celed at the expiration of the eleven
Veara. When the shares matured , that
is became worth $200 each , the Ledger
No. 1 was wound up and whole business
was closed out in twenty-four hours.
Sixty men of this society received back
canceled mortgages and held their homes
clear. Sixty others who had made their
monthly deposits and had not borrowed
on their shares received in bank bills
some $00,000 , in sums varying with the
number of shares they had carried. The
man who had put up n dollar a month
received I' OO , and the man who had put
in ? 10 u month received $2,000.
To-day every married man on what is
known as the editorial lloor , where are
located the editorial , financial and com
mercial departments of the paper , owns
tin ) house he lives in. Six of the local
( tail * own their homes. Not one-third of
the compositors and pressmen and
other employes of the paper pay rent.
JOllNUWlJ.UAJt , ItliTllCKIl GAlinir.K.
Hut the most notable case is that of
John Gwillhun , who writes himself down
"retired earner of the Ledger. " lie had
a route and was delivering ledgers when
ho went into his first building society ,
and ho was one of the pioneers in the co
operative movement. Gwilham's faith
extended beyond the experiment of half
a dozen shares taken anil carried through
to maturity. As fast as ho saved , his
money wont into building societies.
\Vhcncvcr , in his tramps over his route ,
lie saw ! i house which was real clicap , lie
bouglil , borrowing the money from ono
of his building societies , giving a mort
gage on the property , and making the
rent olVsct as nearly as possible the dues
and interest to the building society.
Sometimes Gwilliam made so good a
bargain that the rent more than paid the
dues and interest- . Sometimes the
rent fell : i little r.hort of
the dues and interest and
Gwilliam had to go into his pocket for
the small difference monthly , lint just
assure as maturity came round , in from
eight to eleven years , John Gwilliam
gathered in the property , sometimes
wholly paid for by the rent , sometimes
at a cost to himself of a fourtti or a liftli
of the wliolo value. Ho carried the
Ledger year after year and ho bought
houses persistently , but shrewdly. The
time came a few years ago when Gwil
liam stopped delivering the paper anil
now ho is tlio "retired carried , " witii
itOO,000 , in real estate , all acquired
through the building societies and his
native shrewdness. Of course such a
man would have made some headway in
tlio world if there had been no building
locioties , but he would never have been
Where ho is.
ADUISON u. nrnic.
Newspaper men of Philadelphia quite
generally look to Addison 15. llnrk , of the
Public Ledger , as the ono among them
best qualified to give information about
building societies. Mr. Bnrk has made iv
Study of the philosophy of the plan. Ho
bus hud practical experience In various
. societies. Ho is to-day thu vice-president
of tlio Pennsylvania league of building
societies , a combination managed upon
purely business principles , but one upon
which the Keystone legislators look with
great respect.
"Nearly all tlio newspaper men of
Philadelphia have been in these socie
ties , " Air. Hurk said in reply to an in-
imiry , and I suppose that two-thirds of
them are now shareholders. When I
bought my llrst house 1 was getting $20
week. The price of the place was $ ; i,400.
1 bought it on $25 cash und my faith in
thn building societies.11
The editor smiled at the recollection of
his onrly zeal , and went on to say : "To
buy that house I undertook to run twen
ty-live shares , which made my dues and
interc'St to tlio society $00 a month. Of
course 1 got possession of the house anil
hail the saving on rent to help meout. *
What made the venture worse for me , 1
bought when times were Hush and prices
high. A few weeks afloi my investment
Jay Cooke failed and everything turn-
blud. 1 should have probably have failed
in trying to carry so much if I hadn't
bettered my condition lluancially soon af
terward. "
"You believe in tlio societies and their
futureV"
"Oh , ycsJITho central idea is that u
man who goes in is compelled to save.
Of course it depends on the character of
the man how important this idea is to
him. Some are so constituted they will
pave anyway , Hut the most of us need a
prod to make us lay by , and that incon-
t vo this plan supplies. Then tlioro is
more profit in this method of saving than
in any other. Most of these societies
pay u profit of at least 7 per cent. I don't
know any that divide less than 5 per
cent. Our havings banks have now
dropped to 3 per cent on deposits. When
first started thcso societies were generally
fio-nporntlve associations , to enable
JvoiTdngmen to own their own homes.
J'hoy were so prosperous that they at
tracted capitalists , who wont into them
because of the big returns and the safe
character of the investments. Our so
cieties now make loss percentages of pro
fit than In former years , but they are
equally as .safe. I Know of no reason
why they will not cpotinuo hi popular
ity. "
"Now , Mr. Hurk. begin at the begin
ning , please , and show the development
of this idea of building societies , Make
it a first lesson so easy that ovr.ry reader
will j ; 't the hang of it ut once. "
" \ \ nil. " .
Well,1 o editor , fiooduatureJlj
"in the first place thr o tire not building
societies. They don't build ntnll. The
tinmo Is a misnomer. They nro co-opcr-
ntive savincs nnd lonn nssoehitlons. That
would bo the correct title for thorn. "
FIKST 1'IHNTIW.ia.
"Now , " continued Mr. Hurk , "Iho sys
tem in the simpler forms may bo ni.itlo
plftin In this way. One hundred men ,
each able to snvo ? 1 a month , fierce , in
order to strengthen each other in their
purpose to save , to put their money to-
uothur at lixcit periods and lock it up in
n strong box until each shall have accu
mulated $ ' . ' 00. It is easy cnonchtosco
that if each man is prompt in his pay
ments the strong box will be ready to bo
opened for a division of savings tit the
end of 200 months. If each monthly payment -
ment stands for a share of Mock , then
cnch share will bo worth ? 'JOO at the cud
of i-'OO months.
"Hut wo will suppose. " Mr. Imrk went
on , "that as soon us this nijreoment has
been entered into by which the 100 men
come together monthly and put a dollar
each into n common fund , one of the
members sitgijesls that instead of allow
ing the money to lie Idle In the box they
had better put it out at interest as they
gather it each month , putting the secur
ities for its return into the box and the
intcrestalso asfast as earned. At a glance
the other members see that by acting on
thin suggestion they will accumulate the
Sv'OO ' on eachsharo ! u less than 200 mouths ,
perhaps in IbO months , when they will
will have paid only -180 each. Tlio sug
gestion is adopted and now wo have u
purely co-oporativo savings fund with
only ono distinguishing feature , and that
one of great value tlio savings are com
pulsory , anil made at staled period ? . The
member does not lay aside in this fund
his spare cash as humor to save prompt *
him , but enters into an obligation to pay
so much per month. INTOW , you have m
this fcohcmo as thus far developed , the
essential features of our so-called mis
named building and loan associations.
The other branches of business in which
they engagn , although they giro char
acter and name to the societies , nro
really incidental to the accomplLshmont
of the ono grand purpose , that of saving
uoney by co-operation and by compulsory
mvment into the treasury. "
"Your philosophy is all nghtMr. Btirlc.
Sow let us sec you develop your ideal
society. "
EVOLUTION OP TIIH VI.AJT.
Tlio editor smiled and proceeded : "Tho
first problem that presents itself to the
director is , how to use the money col
lected the first month. The purpose of
the society will bo destroyed if it is not
safely invested. Shall it bo put in gov
ernment bonds at a low rate of interest ,
or invested in bond and mortgage , with
real cstato security at a Ingh rate ? If the
latter course is adopted , to whom shall it
bo loaned ? John Smith , who is not n
member of the sooietv. desires to borrow ,
but so also does I'etor lirown , who is a
member. If the society lends to Peter
Urown , it will have security additional to
that represented by his bond nnd mort
gage in his stock growing in value
month by month. To get this additional
security for all the mon y it lends , and at
the same time secure a higher rate of in
terest for its money than could be ob
tained from government bonds , the so
ciety determines to lentl only to its mem
bers. Now it appears that other mem
bers besides Peter lirown want to borrow
the first month's collections. How shall
it bo decided between thorn ? Obviously ,
the fairest plan is to let them bid one
against the other , and lend it to the man
who is willing to civo the liinhost prem
ium over and above the fixed or legal rate
of interest. This course is adopted , nnd
the society finds itself in possession of
two sources of profit , interests on loans
to its own members und premiums for
the iirior use of money collected. It is
manifest now that instead of requiriiig
200 or ISO months in which to accumulate
in tlio strong box enough money aid se
curities to divide $ ' , ' 00 per share , it will
only take say 100 mouths. "
"Good ! Your ideal is beginning to de
velop certainly. "
" course-of time " Jlr. Burk
"In the - , re
sumed , "some one of the members fails to
pay his installment. If this is permitted
it is manifest that the member withhold
ing his deposit nnd depriving the society
of its use will in the end have an Ml-
vantage over his follow members. To
check this a line is imposed when install
ments are delayed , so the line may servo
as a penally as well as reimburse the so
ciety for the loss of the use ot the money.
Another member finds that ho cannot
keep up his payments , or ho desires to
move to mioincr part of the country. To
accommodate him , the society agrees to
unlock its.strong box belore the appointed
time , give him what ho ha.s put in , with
some portion oi tlio profit already ac
cumulated , nnd cancel his stock. Now it
is seen that there are , besides savins
money and getting interest upon it , three
sources of prolit , namely : Premiums
arising from competition 1'or the Jeans ,
penalties for non-payment of dues , and
n portion of the profits withheld from
members who fnil to remain in the asso
ciation and whoso stock is canceled.
And so wo develop the features of a
Philadelphia building society. "
"And what is the outcome * "
THE UAV OK SKTTI.KMEKT.
"At last , somewhere between the tenth
nnd tlio eleventh years , when from $120
to $130 have been paid in on each share ,
the strong box is found to contain securi
ties or monev suuicient to divide to all
the shares , tlio borrowers and the non
borrowers , ifiOO each. The time hns como
for llio society to bo 'wound up,1 techni
cally speaking. Each holder of un tin.
borrowed or free share gets $200 in cash-
Kacli borrower is entitled to ? 200 , but ho
owes $200 , for which the society hold hjs
bond nnd mortgage , so the account is
squared by the cancellation of the mort
gage. "
"That looks like a pretty fair per cent
for the non-borrower ? "
"Tho investor or non-borrower has
made 10 or 12 per cent on his money.
Ho has paid iu ? 120 to $130 and received
$200. "
"But what about the borrowers ? "
"He has paid perhaps 8 or ID per cont.
for the use of his moiioy , when the nomi
nal market price is only 0 per cont. But
If a fair comparison is made between
loaus obtained in the open market and
loans from building societies the dill'or-
once will be found to bo more apparent
than real. Agents for capitalists gener
ally demand a bonus for pelting a loan.
The loan it.solf is generally not granted
for moro than three years , and , if the
market warrants it , a fresh bonus will bo
demanded for a continuance of the leaner
or the borrower will bo compelled to go
again to the market to pay the firs
lender , and will have fresh conveyancer *
fees to pny. This may occur twlcn in the
lifetime ot a building society loan , am
when the accounts of the two loans are
compared the dill'orencois vcrylrcquontly
In fnvor ot the society loan as a matter o
dollars and cents , andlahvnys in its favor
when thu convenience of getting tin
money , of paying the interest nnd dues In
monthly installments and the freedom
from worriment about a possible fore
closure are taken into consideration- "
TUB MOltAI. ADOIINCU.
Then Mr. Bttrk , to illustrate the ad
vantages of borrowing from a building
society , told of un actual case within Ins
own observation , A little house , whicl
rented for $12.50 n month , was put up foi
sale. The occupant , who liked the plnco
well cnouuh to IIKIKO it his homo , was
urged to buy it through a building
society loan , Ho knew just enough o
finances , as the editor put it , "to bo ii
tlio provurblnl condition of a man will
little learning. " He would not bo sue !
a tool us lo borrow money nt a premium
nnd ho denounced the societies and their
system. The friend , seeing that there
was a good investment in the property
bought it. The purchase money wu
borrowed from a building society. The
sumo tenant .continued to occupy tin
house nnd paid his $13.59 a mouth rout to
ho now landlord , his friend. The latter
urned the rent toward the dues and in-
crest for tlio building society. It had
urned out that thn entire outlay for in-
erest , dues , ground rent , taxes nnd
vnter rent has amounted to $16.50 ft
uouth , Thus , by the payment of fl a
month out of his own pocket to the
ociely until tlio aggregate reached
about $ T 00 , the friendly adviser of the
keptical tenant has become the owner of
a property worth $1,500. The same nun
vno refused with scorn the opportunity
, o buy , leu yoatu ace , has really con-
ribtiicd , throtigli his rent , over one-half
of the purchase money which now gives
us friend the property clenr.

Atnerienn Analyst : Some years ago ,
.vlipii . a mail steamship line was estab-
ished between San craticisco and the
\u.slralian islands , enterprising persons
sought to transfer some of llio wild prod-
lets of the latter region to California soil.
One thing attracted the attention of the
idmirers of nature , and that was the
juealyptus tree , which formed IK ) per
; ent of the forest vegetation of Australia.
This tree grows very rapidly in that
country , with n straight stem rcnt'hliig
commonly 250 feet in height , nnd having
n circumference of seventy feet at the
> asc. It was believed that as this tree
produced a great mass of leaves it could
jo utilized for shade as well us or
namentation , if the soil of the 1'acilic
slates should bo found suitable lo
Is growth. The experiment was
.ried , nnd slips of the Australian
forest giant transferred to California ,
where they soon took root and thrived in
.lie prolific soil of the Golden stale. The
tree was found to furnish honey to boos ,
uid in this way alone llio foreigner was
'otind to bo a valuable addition lo llio
lonoy-giving products of that now ex
tensive honey-producing state. It was
ascertained that the eucalypti ! ? rrlobnlus ,
or blue gum , could bo further utili/.ed as
n remedy for marsh and other fevers. So
valuable , indeed , la it that it will destroy
and feed upon the animalcules of marshy
regions nnd help to eradicate mosquitoes
by destroying the food on which Ihey
exist. Us value by being efficacious in
suoh fevers has given lo the Iron among
many persons , especially the Spanish-
Americans , the name of llio "fever Ircc , "
nnd it is , therefore , somewhat revered
by the unlives of Iho Spanish-American
countries along tlio Pacific coast. The
tree produces an essential oil which is
valuable , ami a rosin like thn resin of
cinchona. An extract made from
Iho Iree yields a substance capable of
neutralizing strong acids and forming
crystalline salts. The leaves , dried anil
powdered , have been found useful as n
medicine for certain maladies , and the
bark and wood have been utilized for tlio
ame purpose. 13iit the discovery of the
romarkblo use to which this tree can
bo put was the result of an accident a
couple of years ago. The eucalyptus tree
had nourished on California soil , and Intil
been employed as an ornament and slinde
tree in many of Iho cities and settlements
along the Pacific coast. It will be re
membered for a long time past engineers
all over Iho country suffered from scale
forming in their boilers and from corro
sion. About a couple of years ago Mr.
George Downic , the proprietor of a llonr-
ing milj at Salinos City , Ca ! . , was in lite
habit of filtering water in an old healer ,
in order to free it , as far as possible ,
from the mineral qualities that
formed scale in his boilor. Chemical
compounds supposed lo prevent llio form
ation of scale has been used without
otl'ect , and Mr. Dowmu resorted to thu fil
tering of water as a partial preventive.
Ills process was to run the walcr through
the healer and let it drain through straw.
One day lie happened to bo out of straw ,
but as the leaves from ono of the eucalyp
tus trees which stoo 1 near the mill were
handy , ho employed them instead. To
Mr. Downic's surprise , the formation of
scale in the boiler slopped , and that v , hich
was alrcndv there began to bo removed.
Ilo thought it well to conlinue his experi
ence with the eucalyptus leaves , mm , on
proving the result , informed otiiers what
lie had discovered. In a very short time
the leaves of the eucalyptus tree fell into
very general use among llio engineers on
Iho Pacific coast for removing --ealo from
boilers nnd for preventing corrosion.

Chicago Herald : " 1 never like to talk
much about the cnse , " said ono of the
oldest nnd best detectives in llio city's
employ , "although it happened a good
many years ago. I think it was the
most brutal crime that I ever heard of in
all my experience.
"Well , to begin the yarn , there was a
young doctor by the name of K. V. Cool-
ago , who lived in a little town in .Maine.
lie was a dissipated fellow , but came of
a good family , who now and then would
supply him with money when lie became
short , but ho was so extravagant in his
tastes that it would have taken'a national
bank to keep him going. Ho had a prae-
lice , lee , in a way , and ono of the finest
laboratories in the stale.
"Well , to make a long story short , ho
became involved in a little financial dif
ficulty one time , and wont to a friend
named Matthews to borrow $ -100. Now ,
Matthews was u heavy drinker- but ho
had plenty of money. It was fixed , however -
over , so that he could only draw it
through his brother. When Dr. Coolago
went to him nnd asked for the loan ,
Matthews said ho did not have the money
just nt that time , but ho thought he could
get it , nnd would bring it up the next
day to the doctor's oillco. Matthews
wont to his brother , and after explaining
what ho wanted the money for , obtained
it.
"At llio appointed time ho wont lo Dr.
Coolago's otlieo with the $ -100 in his
pocket. The doctor received the money ,
nnd poured his friend out a glass of
brandy. The liquor was drug/jud / and
Matthews full into a stupor , from which
ho never awakened. Dr. Cooiago went
coolly to work to nuirdor him , and
burned tlio body up in a furnace in the
basement.
"Of course Matthews was missed. His
brother told how he had got the $100 for
Coolago , and the detectives searched the
olllce. They found portions of the
charred human bones , and thn doelor
was arrested and placed in jail to await
his trial. In the cell next to him there
was an Irishman locked up for some
minor offense whose term was to expire
in a few days. Coolago became ac
quainted with this man and ihe two
formed a plot to throw the suspicion oi
tlio murdur on a young .student named
Flint , who wns in tlio doctor's
ollice , Coolago fixed up a letter
in which he made Flint confess
to thn murder. This was given
to the Irishman who was to kill Flint ,
leaving the impression that ho had com
mitted t-uk'ido and place the letter on his
person. However , the officers at the jail
got on to thu schqnio , nnd took the letter
away from the irishman , who was afterward -
ward given a term ii | the penitentiary.
"When Dr. Coolago saw that his plot
had failed ho broke completely down ,
nnd as thn time for thu trial drew near IK
became moody and morose.
"On the ilny set for Ins trial 'he turn
key wont into his cell to call him. Ho
found Coolage in Ids cot dead. Ho hai
committed .suicido , but for some timoit
was a mystery how lie had done it. Tlio
post-mortem examination revealed the
fact that he had cut an artery in the roe
of his mouth , 'swallowing the blood , nut
thus blud la death. "

cnso a clannish ouo , tonne-ions in fratcr-
ml affection nnd bountifully loyal to
ionic tics. The father died In I853when
lie president wns only sixteen nnd his
sister Uoso Elizabeth , wns seven years of
ngo. The mother was a singularly strong
character the possessor of intellectual
and moral force and great dignity. She
reared her children to honor her and love
ono another , and In 'their maturer years
they have not departed from her pre
cepts. Though the brolhors nnd sisters
mvo lived apart , they have experienced
\ closer kinship than is generally the
cnsn in united households ,
'Iho love nnd veneration shared by nil
.ho group for their mother , and the doc
: rio ? thuy felt in her death , is n living
joml between them , and ono never to die
while they live. To her Ihoy came as
often ns they could make the journey , t'.io
sons who hadgono out Into the world and
.ho sisters who had established new
ionics for themselves. The Inst time they
net there wns at the funeral of Mrs.
Cleveland , and when they separated it
was to leave the youngest sister the solo
occupant of llio lonely house , linger
mspilnlity was offered nor in the homes
of her brothers and sisters , but she pre
ferred lo stay in the house which had now
become hers , and in time to renew her
work in her chosen field. There wns an
advantage lo her in IhiH course. She wns
not a stranger m the place , ns lior elder
brothers and sisters had bocou-o by their
long absence from it , but every ouo
know nnd respected her , nnd her few
chosen Iriends were not fnr away. She
liad , too , tlio prestige of her parents'
fame in Holland patent , mid this
was a rich lega'-y. ' Her father
liad died three weeks niter his re-
inovnl there to become pastor of
the Presbyterian church , but his
character ns a minister nnd a man was
well known in all that region , and in his
short acquaintance with the villagers ho
dad endeared himself to them. Mrs.
Cleveland lived there nearly twenty
years after his death , nnd her worth is
fully appreciated by the villagers. She
wns a noble woman , intensely self-reli
ant , courageous , and religious. A south
erner reared in luxury the only child of
a wealthy merchant of Baltimore she
had met disasters of life that followed
her husband's death with such fortitude
mid rare independence as made her life
a marvel to llioso about her. It was only
because she had been bred in the circle
of life that ' .vas hers , and had come from
such a family and home , that she was
able to meet misfortune as she did.
Mr ? . Cleveland's ardent desire often
expressed was to leave lo Iho village
some expression of her goo.l-will nnd ap
reciation of the kindness shown her in
ler days of trouble , and her wish was to
give 'a fund for a libraty. She ex-
peeled that the estate of her sou Fred

after her death , when it wns found that
it would not her son Grover provided the
means for Iho purchase of live

Henry \VatturNon in ' 04.
Atlanta Constllulion : An interesting
story is told about Henry Watter.son's
connection witn the Cincinnati Times ,
which , during war times and just after
ward prided itself on being the most ex
treme union paper in the west.
Ono day in 18H ( , so thdslory goes , Wat-
torson wnnt through the'linos nnd lo Cin-
cinnnli on business connected with a cot
ton claim. Ho also went to the oflicn of
Ihe Chincinnatti Times ,
Mr , Francisco , the business manager ,
was sitting at his desk in the counting-
room on Third street , when a medium-
sized gentleman steppe .up to the counter
and asked to see the business manager.
Ho was dressed in u suit of rebel gray ,
with cavalry jacket tliaf was decidedly
llio worse for wear , being out at the
elbows , and had n close ohsi'rvcr natlccd
Ihe northern portion ns ho wont south a
ling of trncn could have been seen. Ho
was as brown as a berry from exposure
to the southern sun during Iho campaign ,
and possibly thirty years of ngo nt that
time. Substantially the following con
versation look plnco :
" 1 would like to spent : to the business
manager if ho is in. " * *
"I nm t ho person you are inquiring for , "
replied Mr. Francisco : "what can i do for
youJ"
"I was informed Hint you wanted an
editor , and I would like to have the posi
tion. "
"What kind of a position do you desire -
sire ? "
"I would prefer the loading writer , "
Was the reply of Mr , Watlerson.
' Do you know the tone of tiio Times1
"Yes , fcir- rank union.11
"Would ( hat bo consistent with the uni
form yon are now wearing } " referring to
tlio rebel gray clolhing.
"Pt-rfeclly so. 1 write to please you ;
if you like it yon adopt it ; if it coincides
with your vlows you nuopt , publish , and
become rosponsibli for its utterances ,
and if not you consign it to the waste-
basket. There is no reason why a man
should not bo employed to do brain work
the same as lie is to do mnnucl labor. No
ono pretends that mnnuel laborers should
not receive instructions from their em
ployers ns Is how certnin work should bo
done and it is a vagary to assume thnt
brain labor should not bo placed on the
snmo grounds. "
"With this understanding yon can write
n couple of editorials nnd if they nro suit
able you shall have employment. "
Mr. Wntterson left tlio ollleo nnd in n
couple of hours returned with two edit-
orinls that were gems. Ho was employed
nnd held the position for more than n
year , giving general satisfaction.
