One of the Joys ot his Childhood was to get together a Gang of Hicks and throw Stones at the Brakemen. He was a member of a tough Call Team and knew how to play Seven-Up. Across the Street from where Jimmy lived there was a magnificent Brick House with a Mansard Koof. Within this Palace dwelt a Boy who had been handicapped with the Name of F. Lawrence. However, it was hoped that his Money would carry him through. F. Lawrence had been v.crr.ed against Jimmy. His Mama oilen took him on her Knee and told Mm how one of his Ancestors turned the Water into Long Island Sound and that it was his Duty to guard the Fam ily Name and not speak to People who v orked by the Day. So F. Lawrence would stand at the Window and make Faces at Jirnmv rutidr Whereupon Jimmy would double-date him to come into tho Street, but F.

V:.t-F!ty, learning Sanscrit and hew tj Ttihale without choking himself, humble Jimmy wes circulating in the Ward burning the Duties of Citizenship. He developed a Right Swing that was cnl c uiited to put somebody out of the I'.urir.es.s. It was a common saying irr.ong his Admirers that you could r.ot. dent Jimmy with an Ax. And yet, ciily a few Years before, he had been a bare-footed Cub, stealing Rides on the Freight Trains. , He was in Demr.nd r.t all Primary Flections. Whenever he wanted to oe a Delegate to something, his Name went on the Ticket or else there was an Ambulance Call. One Spring, while F. Lawrence was down on the Rivera, tiying to corneal the Fac t that he h id been born in America. Jimmy stacked the Cards on the Pious Element ana Mas dieted Alderman. His real Career now opened up. He feathered about him all the Local Statesmen who were net on E.itth ror their Health. Whenever an Ordinance c: me up, they held it ever a few Weeks vntil they could Investigate and mrr-c rure that the Tax-Payers were being Protected. Jimmy acquired a Reputation as -i Philanthropist and Friend of the Poo:-. Every time a down-trodden Porch Ciimber was taken in by thoe Ene mies of Society who wear the Blue Clothes, Jimmy would go around and Jix up the Bail Bond and explain to the Judge that his Friend was a Working Ley with a Mother dependent on him. -: such unselfish Acts a.s these he per- V ' " fected a l.:s Staff Private Machine and had 011 a great many useful Workers who said that mey were willing to com? to the Front at any time and do any thing for him, up to and including Murder. Jimmy had started out with No Full or Prestige. He had nolhing to carry bun through except his Character. Am: row, at the age of 4J, ho was the P11 c -owned King of the Slate-Makers.

Now, his Jewels Hone figured up $1100 and his Clothes bad Silk Lining. 113 owned a Buffet in which he had to keep four Men be hind the Bar and sometimes the Slot Idochlnes alone gave him a Rake-O.T of ?",0 a Day. And how about F. Lawrence, the pampered Patrician who had been wont to jeer at the Poor Boy and treat him Contempt! He had been leading a lire of Idleness anil Luxury, instead of get ting cut and hustling for the Tax IV.ycr and Workingmv.n. But his PrHc was due to get a hard Fall. Humi:e Jimmy, the- (las-House Boy, ha'd a love ly Dose of Poetic Justice all fixed up for F. Lawrence. 11 appears that F. Iavrenoe, after tt:e Death of his Father, succeeded to the Presidency of ' a Corporation or ganized to trim the Public. This Cor if W FitUN'l'. i poration needed a Renewal of the Fran c ': ise. It had to jjet the renewal or p it up the Green Blinds and that is why I'. Lawrence fret busy. Every ono told him he would have t fee Jimmy. There vcu!d be nothing I ooirg until Jimmy had been Seen an! Seen Proper. And that is how it cam--: r-bout that the liaughty Magnate, who once reviled the ragged Urchin, came with his Hat In hi3 Hand and began t 1 Crawl as soon as he struck the Front Leer. Hen: was a Grand Opening1 ror Jimmy. He had the Chance cf bis Life to hnnrl out n Hunk of Retribution by j faying: "When I wu-s a penniless Lad yen tnickeJ my Poverty.
