HAD SMALL BEGINNING
ORIGIN OF THE DANK OF THE
MANHATTAN COMPANY.
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.

To Cure a Cold.
Coughs and Colds An ordinary cold
can often bo checked in tho first
Btngcs by Inducing a good perspira
tion. A glass of very hot milk drunk
after you aro In bed, or tho julco of n
lomon added to a tumblor of boiling
wator, will often accomplish this. A
hot bath to which a littlo ammonia

March, 1012, through collision -with the

tho succeeding threo months silver
Worth over 500,000 was recovered at

bers and giving tho bank a letter of
Indemnity, guaranteed by your bank
ers, to refund the money should tho

the bank is bound to pay again.

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

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.
