Kverv dollar John got he put into real nhiaup thero where the Metropolitan is now. Them days you could bU3r property up thero for almost nothing, and ii was in real estate that the Astor property was made."

It is pleasing face in spite of the air of shrewdness that overspreads it. Hi* manner is somewhat abrupt, tmt ill prepossessing with young men it becomes almost latherly. "With us Americans, the father makes the money and the son spends it but the Germans aro different. 'Xhev always atig oil to what they get in:d try'to make it more but HU American heir begins at once to sqii'oi dor, nnd tho savings of his lather is soon used up.

He used to go to the club nights, and he left that off niter his marriage, aod it done him good."

At ih point Mr. Drew placed 1ns finsr'r on a psr^raph in the paper on hi# lap, and d: "I seo here a report that tho Commo dore is going to retire from the Lake Shore lload and make Eugene Robinson President ol it. I can't hardly bo licvo that, still it may be trim. Ku gene is a mighty bright youna man. TI.ey say ho's out west somewhere."

The same piper suggested the theme of railroad)ns in general, aud Mr. Drew discussed the subject in all lis bearings, showing a wonderful knowledge ot the topography of the different pai'tHof tiie oouutry, the lengths of o!'roads, lr cost, their value and their management.

HI3 OWN FINANCES.

"Everything I have is signed over to mv creditors. Thi-s bouse belongs to the five heirs of my son-in-law, Mr. Kf-lley. I am their guardian, and secured them five years a^o. I always thought," after a meditative pause, "that I could stop when I wanted to but some how or other I didn do it. Kfl bad drawn out five years ago I would have had all a man could possibly need, or even a year aud a ball *go would have done. Then I didn owe nothing but tho college endowments, and them wasn much. But you see I must be up aud doiu something all the time. I can't he idle. "The newsp.'ip'-rs reported you sick i4 week, Mr. Drew?" "Did the\?" Then they were wrong. I never wai sick. All my troubles are m»ntal." ... "Do you think your assets will cover your liabili1 ief, s'r?" "I can't t-dl. They nuy or m*y not. I iran't.toll until after li« meeting ol imv creditors." "Mav I ask whether you inten.l entorimr'Wall stroet again?" I "Ali! now you ask me a question I enn'r. answer I a in g-tting old. but wno knows?''

Then thoro was along pause, which was eventually broken by theex-mil-llo"«ire. "You knew Fisk, d'dn you, he asked suddenly.

The reporter replied that he had tliat honor. "Well. Fisk was a mighty smart man, but a mighty queer man. You remember the time bim and me .ved tho

troasury over to Jersey, don't

you? Weil, just aUout that timo the Commodore lie was a trying his best to corner Erie, aud was buvibg risbt and left. He must have bought as much as $10,000,000 worth, and still the market wasn't dreened. Fisk was sellin' him stock right along, and when it was called for ir, was always ready for do livery. Then the commodore b««an to suspect something, «nd when the deliveries was made the next day be was certain thero was a screw loose."

The reporter ventured t» suggost that the "screw loose" could not have Iwen in tho Erie printing press, but Uncle Dan'l, smiling placidly, continued without a replv. "Well, when tho Commodore how things was li« wont to law, poured in injunctions and things, was then Treasurer of the road. day our lawyer, he come to me says: "Mr. Drew, that money ain't safe in New York, an I Fisk, tie says the same thing." At first I refused to move, but aftt-r a while I seen we hud no chance to hold our money—live millions,! think it was, mostly in Gov ernments and first-closs securitiesand 1 give in. Well we went over into Jersey and staid at a hotel tor a long time. Here Kick's queerness came in lie had the house watched by half of tho police force of Jersey City. He was restless and uneasy, and aoemed to dread a seizure. Toe money was in my charge, but I had no fear that anybody would get it. The Commodore came out all right, for after his compromise Fisk and Gould took half his slock, and a call (or tbe balance."

seen and I One and

AN oriNlUN OF GOULD.

What do you think of Mr. Gould, Mr. Drew? Do you think ho is going to last long on the street?" "I don't know. Gould's a mighty smart man. About bis holdin' out I can't say. Look at Dimmock and S oekwell and Woodward, and tho rest of'em. Still I think a.-uld's a rich man—a very rich man. Somehow or other, lie and Fisk managed to koep tho road in first-class condition It was the Atlantic and Great Western that broke Erie's back. When she leased that it was ruin to her. The thing was arranged by Sir Morton Peto, Mr. McIIenry, and a lot ot Englishmen. .They went junketing through tho couutry, givin' dinners at Delmonico's and everywhere else, and finally thev «ot rid of their whi.e elephant. I believe Erie, properly managed, would be one of tho best paying roads in tho country, but oayin' interest oil :i-hundred odd mi.lions ain't an easy thing, I tell vou." "How about the Central?" "That's the best property in thf country. It pays thirty millions a year and an eigh^ per cent, dividend, and always has uionev lor improvements. When tho Commodore doubled up them two roads (Central and Hudson River), I thought he done a resky thing, Now I see he was right. Wh«n tbe Com mo doro first went into Harlem stock 1 went in too, but after while I began to losa confidence in it, and drawee!I out. Now the stock is 140, ami pays a 12 par ceut. dividend. Do you know the reasou it pays 12 per ceut. instead ot o, like the Central

The reporter confessed bn ignorance, "Well, I'll tell yon. Tho Harlem now owns tho Fourth Avenue Stree. car Line, the ground the Hippodrome stands oil, and considerable other real estate, and that brings in tbe extra 4 pi cent." "Con you tell me any thing Gould's restitution of 000,000 to En some years ago, Mr. Drew

Why, most of that property was property belonging to the road, but held in Gould's name. He was glad to be free ol it." "It is said on Wall street that Mr Vanderbilt has $11,OK),000 worth of Central stock in bis safe." •More'n that. And it's a mighty good investment. You seo be aoa have to pay no taxes on it—the railroad does that—and so he has his 8 per cent clear." "How much do you think Commodore Vanderbilt ia worth? Forty mil lion*?" ,, "Forty Yes. A hundred million?. "And John Jacob Astor?" "I don't know, Nobody knows. All his property is in real estate, and you can't make no stimate of that thes^ times."

So nearly perfect are the recipes is these wonderful pain-soothing and hoaling Centaur Liniments, that we can confidently say they will ALLKVIATK ANY PAIN arnsiog from flesh,bone or muscle derangements. We do not pretend that they will mend a broken leg or EXTERMINATE BOILS, but even in such c»ses they will reduce the infliuiation and stop the pain. Nor can we guarantee the proper results whero tbe body is POISONED BY WMSKT. Temperance is necessary to a proper physical, as mental condition.

THE WHITE CENTAUR LINIMENT fo particularly ndapted t*» all cases of RHEUMATISM, Lumbago, Neuralgia Erysipelas, Itch, Kprineg, ChillUlains, Cuts, Bruises, Stings, Poisons, Scales, Scatica, "Weak Back, Pains in the side Wounds, Weeping Sinows, BURNS, Frost "(1 Feet, PALSY. Ear-ache, Toothache, Head-ache, Ulcers, Old Sirs, Rrokon Breasts, Sore Nipples, More Tin oat. Croup, Diptheria, otc. Tne The most of these complaints the Contaur Liuimeut will cure all ot theui it will benefit. It will EXTRACT the poisou trom bites and stiugs, aud will cure BURNS AND SCALDS without a sc.ir. Tlie following is bu^ a eample ot a thousand similar testimonials: "ANTICCH, III., Deel, 1874. '•My wife hiw for a long timo, been a terrible Mitlerer from llheumatism. She has tried many physcians and many remedies. The only thing which has given her relief is Centaur^ Linim«!ut. I am rejoiced to say this has cured her.

VV. ii£. RING, Postmaster."

It is an indisputable faco that the Oentaur Liuiment etlect performing cures never before ara ed by any preparation in existance,—like Chronic Itheumatiom of thirty years' standing. straightening fingers and joints which had been stiff for six years, takng tho soreness from burns, Ac.

One dollar, or eaven fifty cents, inested in Centaur Liniment will be within reach when au accident occurs, and will do more good than any amount of money paid for medical at endance, When physcians are called they frequently use this Linimeut, and tf course charge several prices for it. The Yellow Centaur Lini»ietf is adapted to the tough skin, muscles and flesh of the animal creation. Its effects upon severe cases of Spavin. Sweeny, Wild-Gall, Big-Head and Poll-Ev.l, are little less than marvelIOUN

Messrs. J. McClure & Co., Druagists, cor. Elm and Front Streets, Cincinnati, O., say: "In our neighborhood a number ol teamsters are using the Centaur Liniment. They pronounce it superior to anything thoy have ever used. We sell as high as four or five dozen bottles per month to owners of horses and mules."

We have volumes of testimonials escribing cures of Sprains, Kicks, Galls, Pool-Evil. Big-head and even Founders, which aro little less than marvels. No owner of an animal can afford to be without a bottle of Centaur Liniment, which any day may prove worth twenty times its coat.
