X IMIVi Till-; ATHKKTI. The propoaitlon to change the name* of the rtreels south of Andenaut street comes th#* OHy Council to-night In the r*>rm of an ordSMUirs, and It is to be hoped that (1m onhname will )>e adoptsd. Xt Is ir.*. ly n !*Miry to give the many good reasons why the nam*a of these at recta >nould be oh inged. They must Im appur rt to every one who has given the mat ter < onffthleTMtlon. First, counting from R.y street. I* the thlriy-flnit street of the city, and It should bo no railed The next street south of it should Ih* i sliel Thlrty-secomt sreW. and so on. First street, or rather First avenue, which Is its pro|* r name, waa ao oalUd because *t was th first street out side of the *'ity limits. There Is rvn rea son for *'a IMIt First street now. how ever (i|iprßprittro the name might have been when th*- street was In th© suburbs, and this reason holds good with most of ihe other streets, the names of which it Is proposed to change. Obj ton ha* b* en muds to changing Ihe nano's of certain short streets to con firm to the* n.im*M of tho*© streets of whloh they are th© connections or contin uations. For Instance, It U pro|*osed to muk© "Grapevine Avenue" a part of Third street, or Thlrty-thlr*l street, as it will |e If the ordinance should be pused. How ninny people are there In this city u ho could find "Grapevine avenue?" Hut if it were made a part of Thirty-third street It couHl tie found ejudly by any one having sufficient Intelligence to g#* about ulone. Then wo have those saintly ntmed thor ougbfares. Ht.

This objection is without force. Inasmuch as all of the bio ks arc not given a hundred ra h Al though there urv thirty streets between Hay and Anderson street■ there are only l.A> numleri. However, be that a* It may. It will b© b©tter to hav© the houst# numbering kick iMilformlty than that th© Mreota should have names that are mis leading. ■■ • ■ . .—Hi A Ivor* I #h© defaulting note teller of the First National Hank of N*w York.

There have ! from tlm© to time bean unkind Inskiua- I tlons touching the ©Rirr© of Mr Bh©r | man’s wealth, and th© filing of the will has tended to revive such Insinuation* i and various •■••mm* ts A common way jof stating tho ease, hy critics, Is this; "John Ktirrn.in was t public office-holder ' th© greater purl of his life, on a salary of ! |s.tjno to 9k,Qoi> n year; hfw couM a man j possibly accumulate a fortune of |3,(k)n.ofto lon such an Income?" And th conclu sion always reached Is that h© couldn't *k> It. and that Mr. Hherman must h ive mad© u*‘ of his official position to ad vance his private fortune*. Most m©n who hv© mad© a financial success In llf are assailed hy Just such criticisms. There Is a very large - !ass of persona who, larking the ability to ac cumulate money, look upen those who do it ar.*l nutk*- use. of it a* t©inß necessarily dishonest. They de Ight to 1 hug th© a- luslon to their hr© i-te that the sp*iti of human Uf*- Is too short for the honest acquisition of a mlliksi doddr*. Th© foundation of John Hharman's for tune !;>}•> ir* to have b*-#n laid by hh own h.in*l< In his youth. Kctng • poor hoy. he early lnrn©d the value of a dollar, nnd how to tuk© * are of one wh* n It came Into his poae*-dtn. Even as a lorefoo(ed lad he was a worker arul n saver. Ona of hi© early trails was his persistant*©, and l>efore h© was twenty years oil he was known as on© of the nust suoceaafu! <olector* of hills from "poor pay" debtors in tho stute. Ho was employe*! by merchants and others to collect for them, arul h© ©el lom returned , from a visit to q debtor without the i money. By close application to business and th© piactir * of frugality, he liad ac umul.it*d 110.000 when hu was twenty ■ four years old. A jurt of thU money ( want Into a sash hiul Uinds factory, which was very prosperous, and other l*arts of It into other budding mmi far lur ing enterprises. Thus before Mr. Mherman entered t'ongresa he had b* gun building i his fortune. As hls early Investment* j paid htm dividends, he Invested In real | estate In the then small city of Ctndn ! natl, nnd lAier In real estate In Washing ton. ’i*tiere real ©stsM*- transaclions prob ably gave him the greater port of hls fortune, since he bought wh*n the lands were very chip and sold when they wer* very high, owing to the growth of the elite*. It has been generally supposed that Mr Sherman bought government bond* largely during the refunding period; but, if so, ac -ordlng to the Washington < orr**- spomlent of th© N©w York Kv* rung *oet, who has made diligent search the matter, there are no r**ords In the Treasury Department to Indicate it. an*l the auhordlntfta officers who served under his secretaryship are generally of th© opinion that he made no such purchases at that tlm* . and hi* lose friends are positive In ihelr ns*riim that he i\*vcr mode anything through spv<ulat|on in the ordinary *-n*e. Mr Hhcrman's red ©r -1 tate and other transactions nfp*.*r to have been always of the ’lucky *' order lie bought land in n suburb of Ctncln. tati for a few dollars an acre, and sold | It at dollar* per foot, he did th© earn© *ort of thing in Washington, in Mansfield, and prolMhiy elsewhere, and own*| intrr ©sts in various m.mufacturtng enterprise**. It Is not difficult to understand, therefore, that hi* fortune might easily have grown to its g* n©rou proportion* without one dishonettl dollar going Info it. Levi Z. Latter declined to give on© dollar to the Republican Campaign Com mittee this year. "Prosperity,** he said, when wpproachfd by th© Republican "toucher.'* "I* the Republican party's winning card this year, and Id like tn know who has done mor© to bring about th© existing state of affair* than I have.
