These men are in the ma­ jority of cases, giaduates of business colleges, and started out in life with nothing but their business education and their integrity as their only capi­ tal.

He lias had frequent conference JVIIII Gen. Stone, Engluet r- In <'hlef of the Pedestal of the Statue of Ll erty, and has mnde his final sug­ gestions as to the erection of the statue. |r is not probable that the pe­ destal will be completed for two m. n'lis yet. and will not be rea 'v to receive the statue till late this winter. He says the entire work cannot be completed before the close of next sit mer; tiiat the statu* is of such great size that it must he put up.slow­ ly and with the greatest care. He thl'iks it will take five.months to get. it securely pi <cerl oi the pedestal. His plan Is to have the dedication on the 3•» of next September, the anniversary of the signing of the treaty of Ver- aallle*, which eecured peace after the Revolutionary war and guaranteed the recognition of the A ner can Republic. 'The New York World popular sub­ set iptlou from the people completes the pedestal. A large amount of money is still required for the erection or putting together of the great sia'ue, which, when completed, will be thirly- flve feet higher than the towers of the great Brooklyn Bridge. The committee by the sale of the miniature statiif ttes, expect to raise the balance of the m >ney required or statue purposes, and Ou receipt of Une Dollar will deliver ar anv place In the United States, a handsome i-ouveiilr of Bartholdi's great work, or a larger representation twelve Inches high and very handsomely finished, al Five Dol- I »rp. For Ten D »llars the committee will deliver a magnificent work of art. same height as the rive dollar slse statue, finely chased, pedestal heavily silvered, with plu>h stand, These souvenir* will make a very de­ sirable holiday gilt, and the giver will surely be remembered, as his gift will have a prominent place in the home and will also be doing a patriotic act by aiding the committee to complete this great work of art.

I saw, says a writer In the Minneap(> lis Tribune a practical joke played the other day which was worthy of Sidney Smith In his happiest days. A well- known gentleman of this city, who has something of a reputation as a wag. was my coiApsnion, and we were pass­ ing a large dry goods store which fronts on Nicollet avenue. There, drawn up, were three-or (our teams, and among tliem a closed brougham, with the driver fast asleep on the box. Evidently the mistress was inside the More Without a word the wag stole quickly up, and opening the carriage 'oor carefully, slammed It suddenly to. In a ii oment tl e coachman straight­ ened up and gazed down the avenue at the elecrric light mast as if he had never seen anything so interesting In his life. Then lie stole a look over his shoulder -ind saw the vag standing, hat In hand, apparently talking to some one lus!de the carriage. "Thank you; yes; good day," said the wag. and bowed h<mself gracefully away from the door, turning as he did so t> look up at the driver and say one wori: "Home!" "Yes, sir! tchf'get up!** and off went the brougham--"home!' Where that "home" was, or who the mistresf* of the carriage was, or what she did wherr she came out of the store or what the coachman did when he stopped at the door of "home" and fouud the carriage empty--sll that only the coachmui and lady know.
