Still there were great financial figures in the held, men who, like Cyrus Field, or William H. Vanderbilt, or F. X. Drexel, were doing marvelous things, and their activities and the rumors concerning them counted for much. Frank soon picked up all of the technicalities of the situation.
The gradual rise in height of the buildings, from Front Street gently ascending up to Broad, gives no startling contrast of elevation to catch the gaze. The spires of the older churches stand up like soft blue pencils, and the massive cornices of the Curtis and Drexel buildings catch the sunlight. Otherwise the outline is even and well-massed in a smooth ascending curve.
The banking house of Drexel & Co. was on his books as a creditor for one hundred thousand, and that loan would be called unless they were especially merciful, which was not likely. Jay Cooke & Co. were his creditors for another one hundred and fifty thousand. They would want their money.
Margaret, standing in the darkness before the huge old house in Drexel Boulevard, imagined herself with Beaut McGregor living with him as his wife in a small apartment over a fish market on a West Side street. Why a fish market she could not have said. Edith Carson was six years older than McGregor and lived entirely within herself.
He looked at Drexel a freshman of twenty-two, with earnest, sleepless eyes and a lofty forehead; in the past winter he had become acquainted with hunger and with that cold which creeps into the room, crawls through the thin covers and closes in, icy as death, about the heart.

Property continued almost unsalable, and prices were less than a half of what they had been in 1853-'54.
It was Morgiana and Drexel, that fluid and electric review which Bat though he gave Lafone the credit really created. 'Ye-es, said Bat dreamily, after Morgiana had given 'the nasty jar' to the Forty Thieves in their forty oil 'combinations. 'As you say, I've got 'em and I can hold 'em. What a man does doesn't matter much; and how he does it don't matter either.
"How did the Little Brass God ever get into the Hudson Bay country?" asked Tommy. "I should think he'd know better." "I reckon the Little Brass God had nothing to say regarding his journey," replied Will. "Two months ago the house of Mr. Frederick Tupper, on Drexel Boulevard, Chicago, was burglarized.
She had a friend in a bright young man of the name of Henry Ritter, chemist and photographer at the Drexel Institute, a born scientist, and who possesses the very genius of the pains and persistence of science. Well versed in the science of the morning fast, he believed that a fast which would merely end with hunger would result in all-around improvement.
Props., or properties, particularly the living ones, cause almost as much disturbance as the temperamental notions of the actors and actresses. Sometimes it is a question which may become the most ridiculous. Kennedy seemed to be satisfied with his preliminary visit to this studio floor. "We can get back to Manton's office alone," he told Drexel. "We will just keep on circling the quadrangle."
