May Do Onld to Have Started From "a Well of Water," Though It Had tho Genius of Aaron Durr Behind It. Tho uncovering of an old Iron tank (l)i Contor Rlreut rccnllod ft ploco of ancient history In connection with the ,Uank of tho Manhattan Company, the Wall Street Journal states. A nprlng Well 35 foot deep, covered by tho iron tank rororrod to and tho present site of tho bank, 40 Wall street, constl luted tho llrst proporty owned by tho Manhattan company, pa rout of tho Wnk now bearing that namo. Tho Dank of tho Manhattan Com pany sprang from a little wnlcr com pany which commenced buslnosH with "a well of water." The charter of tho company wus drawn by Aaron Uurr, and its granting wan opposed by Alex ander Hamilton becauso It contained u clauso permitting tho company "to employ alt surplus capital In tho pur cluiso of public or other stock or In any other monoy transactions or op erations not inconsistent with the con stitution and lawB of Now York or of tho United Staton." This clauso wan tho Joker In tho charter of a company started for tho purpono of "supplying the city of Now York with puro and wholesomo wa ter." In 1708 Now York city suffered from an epidemic of yellow fever which was attributed to an Inadequate and inferior water supply. Here was Aaron Htirr'B opportunity for start ing it bank. In which effort ho had, for many years, been opposed by his political enemy, Alcxunder Hamilton, who had a monopoly of tho banking business lit New York state until tho charter was granted tho Manhattan company. Upon tho nsHombling of tho legisla ture In 1709 an association of indi viduals, among whom Aaron Uurr was a moving spirit, applied for tho wa tor company's charter with a capital of $2,000,000. Tho project waa nn am bitious ono for thoso days, and us thoro wa considerable uncertainty about tho probablo cost of tho wator Mystom tho clause for tho employment of idlo capital was Inserted. A great effort woa made by Alexandor Hamil ton and tho federals to defeat tho charter on account of tho clause grant ing the company banking privileges. Tho necessity for a propor water oys torn which could only bo procured by tho organization of n responsible com pany with largo capital carried It through tho legislature on April 2, 179D, and it roceivod tho governor's signature. l)y April 22 books wero opened for public subscription of tho $2,000,000 capital stock (par G0 per Bharo), and by May 1C tho cntlro amount had boon subscribed, tho city of Now York hav ing taken 2,000 shares. This was tho llrst llnanclnl victory of Aaron Durr over his political enemy. Tho bank is tho oldest in tho state, savo ono. Its capital waB raised to $2,050,000 In 1808, to permit of tho stato purchas ing 1,000 shares. Both tho stato and city aro stockholders in tho Uank of Manhattan company, this being tho only bank stock owned by tho stato of Now York. Companion of Medicine.

Although tho chanccB of being able to do so aro considered doubtful, nlnco who lieu in 17 fnthomn of water, tho Canadian Pacific railway has not libandoncd all hopo of refloating tho Empress of Ireland. At any rate, every Effort will bo mode to recover tho X200.000 worth of silver, in 103 hagB, which In still in tho specio room of tho liunken liner. . Tho most notnblo salvage of silver during recent years woh mado after tho Oceana Bank in tho channel in March, 1012, through collision -with the 'lifogua. Tho work was hindered by jttrong currents and tides, but during tho succeeding threo months silver Worth over 500,000 was recovered at t very low cost Tho Oceana was ly- tig qulto upright; tho Empress of Iro and turned turtle obviously a very much moro difficult position for sal vage work. Tho 200,000 worth of silver, how t.vor, rcprcsontn but a small portion ff tho money which went down with llio ill-fated vobhoI; for thousands of hounds belonging to the passengers ihomselves must have beon lost. The i.verago pansenger on ono of thono InorB usually carrion a plentiful bud ly of loose cash and bank notes with lim, and it is cslimnted, as in tho caso bf tho Tltunlc, that tho loss of paper Inonoy belonging to passengers them IioIvcb must have boen enormoun. Tho bunks, it might bo mentioned, uro tho gainers in such cases. The DhuuI procedure whop bank notes are tost Is to' ut onco Inform tho Bank of pigland, giving tho numbers. Then it in nccconary to wait 12 months. If by ihat time tho notes bavo not been re turned to tho bank, you may obtain Ihe cash on again presenting tho num bers and giving tho bank a letter of Indemnity, guaranteed by your bank ers, to refund the money should tho Jtotea ever bo presented, In which caBe the bank is bound to pay again. If tho numbers on tho bank notes jtro unknown, and tho notes aro never found, tho monoy goes to the "un claimed bank balances, in which there aro always huge amounts of other peo ple's money. London Tlt-Blts. Light Humor. In the latter half of tho eighteenth contury ono of tho members of a Httlo scientific society In Liverpool, Eng land, laid a curious wager. He bet a brother scientist that ho would read a nowapnper by the light of a farthing dip at a dlstanco of 30 feeL Tho B. 8., finding tho feat difficult at even a sixth of tho diatanco, cheerfully ac cepted tho wager. Tho layer merely coated tho insldo of a Bhallow wooden box with sloping pieces of looking glass, bo as to form a concave lens, placed it behind his farthing ,dlp, and readily deciphered tho small print at tho stipulated dls tanco. Tho experiment was witnessed by a Liverpool dock-moater. Ho waa a thinking man, and saw great possibili ties In this learned Jest. Ho straight wuy adapted tho prlnciplo to light houso requirements, and forthwith the 'modern roflected light, with its miles of reflected range and untold lifo-Bav-Ing powers, sprang into being.

He Would Find Out. Henry Irving, in his early days, onco played a part which in the first act called for a dark stage. In this dark ness he fought with an old earl, threw him heavily and, when he did not riao after the loud thud of his fall, Irving' would cry out: I "Great heavens! Wliat have I I done?" One night he played the part In a small English town. A stage hand was very much impressed with' tho play and to him the scenes quickly became real. So that when Irving reached the climax, felled the old earl j to the ground and spoke the line, "Great heavens! What have I done?" ; he was startled to hear the stage hand aay In a loud voice: "Strike a match and we'll have a look." New York Globe. A Vain Hope.
