Jones Special Correspondent Washington, D. C.) A man named Ponzi lives in Boston. He surly never got that name wished on him anywhere near Boston harbor. Ponzi was long-heade- d enough to plant large sums of money in different Eureopen countries, and after he had established hi8 banking connections abroad he began to deal in foreign exchange. American dollars are of full value. These he converted into depreciated foreThen by switching ign currency. his credits from- one country to another he finally worked out the problem so that the money that he had dealt in abroad for himself and customers finally got back to the United States through a clever process of manipulating worth par. Ponzi agreed to pay fifty per cent profit to his investors for the use of their money for three months. The surprising part of the performance developed by an investigation was the apparent proof that Ponzi was making good. At the same time he cleared up several million dollars for himself in a few months. . About a dozen years ago the United States Government wished to float a big bond issue. Everyone was invited to bid and a Boston man was the lowest bidder. The astonished bankers of the' country found that the Bostonian had no other capital invested in the bond enterprize than a two cent stamp which he had .used to mail his bid to Washington. Nevertheless the lowest bidder got the job, and almost before the Government could notify him to that effect the big banking houses got behind the Boston postage stamp The result was that the farbid. sighted Bostonian made a lot of money. But why shouldnt Boston lead? Didn't it have the first big AmeriWasnt , it the origcan inal Hub of the Universe; and hasnt it the only State House that is decorated with a Lion and a Unicorn to signify the ancient heritage of England? Boston has its Bunker Hill, its old North Church; and Lexington and Concord hard by. Why, even Henry Cabot Lodge and Calvin - American republic. Now every Ohio editor expects $100,000 a year to do he job. There are more prequisi-te- s to garnish the position than the whole undertaking cost in the Hays of our fathers. But with ordinary Government clerkships in Washington it is different. These places are looked upon in the Capital as great jobs for and widows. When viewed girls as a "career for men they hold very little in the perspective. What the Government has recently done for its superannuated employes and in supplying a retirement fund for the future is very similar to the plans put into effect by the International Harvestor Company and some of the other corporations several years ago. The fact that the Government has become a party to the scheme for retiring its employes after long and faithful service is regarded as showing the tendency of the age toward the recognition of individual efforts in every walk of life, no matter how insignificant a part the individual may have performed ' in humanitys workshop. tea-part- y? - HYRUM, UTAH BERANGERS HEART TOO KIND Great French Poet Continually Preyed On by a Host of Ingrates Who Plucked Him. FOR GOVERNOR Interesting anecdotes are told of the grent French poet, Uerunger, who died In 1857. The poet was as poor as he was generous. All he had he gave away, and when there was nothing left he sent the beggars who haunted his house to call on his numerous friends. One of the characteristics of this unfortunate benefactor, who was always surrounded by a host of Ingrates, was his tolerant spirit. Since there In his modest was no home, the beggars who knew the house stayed outside on the staircase ; It was Impossible to see him without finding a of them on the stairs. There they used to wait like ravens for the small change, old clothes, and sometimes new clothes, that Llsette was the first to distribute to them.
