It may bo safely said today that Miss
May Goelet, daughter of the late Ogden
Goelet and finnceo of the Duke of Rox
burghe, is probably the richest unmar
ried woman in America in her own right.
Her fortune is conservatively estimated
at $25,000,000; it may be much more per
haps even J40.000.000L If she lives her al

It is a fortune in real estate. There

MISS MAY GOELET,
THE DUKE OFROXBURGE,
AND HIS DUCAL CASTLES
only daughter. There Is one brother,
Robert Goelet, who shares the millions
of their father with his- sister. Her
mother, as all the world knows, is a Wil
son Miss Mary Wilson, eldest daughter
of R. T. Wilson. The marriage, In 1S77,
was the social event of the season.
The daughter, who is soon to become
a duchess, is 25 years old. Hers Is tho
beauty of the patrician type dignified, not
exuberant, quite brunette. There Isjust
the tinge of the Latin in it yet, though
sifted down through many generations,
for the first Goelet was a Huguenot and
a Frenchman. To the artistic eye there
Is even a suggestion of the Oriental In.
the long, dark eyelashes, the heavy colls
of hair and the clear white complexion.
No child was ever born to more than
May Goelet. Her father was a man of
affairs, multi-millionaire, member of the
Union, Knickerbocker and other smart
clubs, among the first In New York so
ciety and equally prominent in the soical
side of life abroad, in London, Paris,
Vienna, Berlin or Rome. Kings and
Princes were his guests when his big
yacht dropped anchor at any port where
royalty and nobility chanced to be mobil
ized. Edward VIL then Prince of
Wales, was sometimes his companion.
Kaiser Wilhelm and he were cronies when
they could get alone over a cigar and a
glass of beer.
Equal prominence comes to Miss Goelet
through her mother. Miss Mary Wilson
was the eldest of the three Wilson girls,
whose marriages all were of International
Importance. Mary Wilson married Ogden
Goelet; Belle became the wife of Sir
Michael Herbert, Great Britain's Ambas
sador, who died only a few weeks ago;
Grace married Cornelius Vanderbilt, Jr.
Her elder brother, M. Orme Wilson,
chose Miss Caroline Astor for his bride.
Born to such wealth, Miss Goelet's
preparation for the place that was to he
hers began on the day she first opened
her eyes. Not a thing was left undone
to fit her for the position that wise par
ents knew was bound to be hers some
day.
Sent Abroad When a Chifd.
At the age of 5 she was sent abroad with
a retinue of teachers, maids, nurses and
companions such as few American girls
had ever known before. European roy
alty looked upon this imposing entourage
with amazement No scion of the proud
est lines in all Europe evec had the atten
tion that was given this only daughter of
the American millionaire. She had French
teachers, Italian teachers, music teachers,
riding masters, her fencing Instructions
everything that parental ambition for her
could suggest.
Society was allowed only a few glimpses
of this fairy princess until the time came
for her debut. She was for the most part
kept secluded in her home, occasionally
permitted to receive a few girl friends of
the same little Intimate circle that makes
tho central galaxy of the "550." Each
year Just so much time was portioned out
to be spent in New Tork, Newport, Lon
don, Hamburg and the Riviera.
Then came the wedding of Consuelo Van
derbilt to the Duke of Marlborough In
1893. Though little Miss Goelet was then
in her 'teens she 'was allowed to be a
bridesmaid. She had not made her-debut
and society was anxious to see her. Next
to the bride and bridegroom she was the
most important personage at tho wed
.dlng. A schoolgirl still, this ybung Duchess-to-be
acquitted herself with savolr falre.
Evidently the teachers and the masters of
deportment had done their work well.
Miss Goelet made her formal debut In
London at Wlmborne House, rented by her
father. In the twinkling of an eye she
could command the acquaintance of the
most important men and women lit "ng
land. Every Impecunious peer in the land knew
her prospective fortune to the last penny.
Suitors threw themselves at her feet with
monotonous regularity. A clever crew of
matrimonial adventurers promised their
titled dupes an easy introduction and then
marriage tc the Cotlet ml'llons.
The matrimonial sharpers didn't count
on one thing, however Miss Goelet her
self. They found that despite introduc
tions and much-heralded pedigrees the
American girl wasn't willing to lay her
millions at the feet of the first possessor
of a coronet who might ask her.
All this time the girl was conducting
herself with enviable dignity. Society in
London had Miss Goelet regularly engaged
about once week. Among the men said
to be favored were the Duke of Manches
ter, Captain Oswald Ames, the tallest ofll
cer In the British army, and Craig Wads
worth, now secretary at the American
Embassy in London. But to each report
Miss Goelet simply returned a quiet de
nial. Many of Europe's aristocracy sought to
honor Miss Goelet with an offer of mar
riage. Miss Goelet received the various
Princes, Barons, Dukes, Lords, Earls and
Marquises with charming courtesy and
then refused each one. A partial list of
those who received their conge consists of
Prince Francis of Teck, Prince Henry of
Orleans, Lord Scott, Marquis of Tulli-
bardlne, Earl of Shaftesbury, Prince Hugo
Hohenlohe, Prince Helnrich von Hanau,
Viscount Ingestre, Viscount Crlchton,
Grand Duke Boris and Paul B-eschenel.
Ogden Goelet, her father, died In 137
aboard his yacht at Cowcs. When the
will was opened It was found that Mr.
Goelet liad practically left everything to
his two children. A modest $500,000 be
came the daughter's upon her 21st birth
day, given to her outright. Some $10,
000,000 was also put in trust for her for
life, she only to enjoy the income. Half
of the residuary estate, estimated at $30,
000.000 then and worth $40,000,000 now, was
also left to her.
Mrs. Goelet got the Metropolitan Opera
House box for life, to go to her daughter
at the mother's death. To Mrs. Goelet
also fell the town mansion, COS Fifth ave
nue, and the Newport palace, "Ochre
Court." Ari annuity of $150,000 a year was
provided for Mrs. Goelet The principal
will add a few millions more to-the for
tune of the Duchess of Roxburghe when
Mrs. Goelet dies.
Miss Goelet eventually gets half her
father's estate, and upon her death this
Is to go to her children. If there are
future Dukes of Roxburghe they will
rank among the richest peers of the
realm.
The two young people met at Cliveden,
William Waldorf Aster's place on the
LIVED LONG IN ALASKA
W. F. PILGRIM RETURNS AFTER
ABSENCE OF 18 YEARS.
'Has Explored All the Famous Gold-
fields of the North and
Will Return.
A record of IS years in the wilds of
Alaska, with but ono Winter on the out
side In that time, is that' of "VV. F. Pil
grim, of Berkeley, Cal., who, with" Mrs.
Pilgrim, Is visiting the family of Pi A.
MacPherson. During the years spent
there Mr. Pilgrim has explored a great
part of the country, and engaged in va
rious enterprises. In 1S3S he spent the
Winter at home, and when a stampede
to Kotzebue Sound occurred that same
year, he and some friends were off with
tho gold-seekers again, and have but this
week returned. They have had all sorts
of experiences, enough to fill the weird
est of novels; they have faced starva
tion and got ready to die; and they have
also experienced the peculiar form of in
toxication that comes to a man when he
Is digging great shining nuggets of gold
out of the ground. In Mr. MacPherson's
office In the Chamber of Commerce yes
terday afternoon, Mr. Pilgrim carried a
crowd of listeners over an unknown trail
from the head of Kubuck River to Nome,
a distance of over 700 miles, in such
realistic fashion that when he got through
one declared he had suffered just as much
hearing It as those who had been through
the real experience.
"We didn't find anything worth while
at Kotzebue Sound," began Mi;. Pilgrim,
as he fingered a handsome nugget watch
chain that looked good to the Port
landers. "It was as fine a country as I
ever saw, though, but the gold wasn't
there. We did our prospecting with
rakes In those days, mind you. We de
cided to move on, so pushed up the Ku
buck River about 400 miles, where Mr.
Williams and myself made the original
strike on Shugnuck. In April, 1S93, news
of the strike at Home reached us, and I
formed a party to go to the new fields.
"How did we go? Whyr we walked,
sailed, used dog sleds and rafted. That
was about as tough a trip as I ever under
took, and several times we all thought
our time had come. Several were added
to our party after we got started, so we
couldn't exactly say that our bad luck
was because of the number 13. We got
along over the snow and ice pretty well
until It began to break up, and then we
were up against it One night we had
camped on- the ice in the open sea, and
by morning the Ice was breaking and wo
found ourselves adrift on a big block. A
change In the wind was all that saved ua
that time, Xor we would probably have
never been heard of again had It not
shifted and caused our big Ice-raft to
float Into the mouth of the river. It had
been our original intention to keep to the
watercourses, but when we found the
Spring was so far advanced, we were
obliged to tako a course across the
treacherous tundra. From Eschaltz Bay
we were the first white men to cross the
trail Into Nome, and the compass was
all we had to depqnd upon to guide us.
When we got over a glacier at the head
of one of the many rivers in that sec
tion and reached tne other side of the
mountalnwe found the rivers and valley

Thames. At that time the young Scotch
Duke was very devoted to the daughter
of the expatriated American. But of a
sudden he lost Interest in MIfs Astor to
find himself head over heels in love with
Miss Goelet
It was an ardent courtship. Few
guessed what was going on. When the
Duke followed the Goelets to this country
last August traveling incognito as "Har
old E. Brassy and friend" the Duke was
tho "friend" people began to guess. He
went straight from the Campania to New
port with the Goelets, and there the en
gagement was announced. Cornelius
Vanderbilt put the Duke up at all the
New York clubs of Importance and intro
duced him socially. s
Miss Goelet is quite small, but very
smart looking. She has all the self-pos-
' session In the world. Is clever and ready
in conversation. Of course she dresses
well. Her charm, of manner Is Infectious.
Her accent Is decidedly English. Her
most intimate -chums are the Misses Mills,
tho twin daughters of Mrs. Ogden Mills.
Of all American peeresses Miss Goelet
will rank second. Her friend, the Duchess
of Marlborough, for whom she served as
bridesmaid, Is the only one whose husband
takes precedence over Roxburghe, and
that only "by the courtesy of seniority. The
Duchess of Manchester, who was Miss
Helen Zimmerman, of Cincinnati, will
cided to camp and build a raft to float
down when the Ice should move out.
Here most of the grub gave out, only
three of us having any left. While the
three who were still supplied had but
enough to carry them through. It was out
of the question to leave the rest of the
men there to starve; so we decided to
divide the rations up equally, and after
they were consumed, it was distinctly
understood that no one could ask another
for aid. There were now 1G of us, two
of our party having gone snow-blind and
having been left at Eschaltz Bay. When
the division was made, each man had
3& cups of flour, one-half cup rice, one
half can baking powder, a little coffee
and 187 beans by actual count a pretty
slim ration to go 300 miles on.
"Well, wo finally got a raft construct
ed, but as the ice was still caked, we left
It and went ten miles down the river,,
where we found a beautiful camp, but
by this time everyone's grub was gone,
so we named It Starvation Camp. Here
we decided to kill the dogs and eat them,
for we could not feed them, and we wero
starving ourselves; so there was nothing
to be done. The first dog to be killed
was a pet belonging to Dr. Gale, of San
Francisco. It was too much for Gale,
and the tears ran down his face as he
saw his pet slaughtered, and not a bite
could he eat of It. We bad 13 dogs,
which we killed by degrees, and on this
meat, with a few berries which we found,
we subsisted for 22 days. On the last
day our lead dog, which had been lost
for about two weeks, found the camp.
He was weak from starvation and very
sick, so I decided I would have to put
him out of his misery. I had had blm so
long that he was almost a human com
panion, and to kill that poor animal was
the hardest thing I ever did in my life.
I went out in the bushes to keep the
rest of the boys from seeing me, and
cried lots harder than Galo did over his
pet.
"We at last got a block of ice started
by shooting into It, and this broke up
the pack in the river, so we started down
on our raft without a bite of anything
left to eat. Fortune finally favored us.
and we were almost delirious with joy
when we discovered a location notice
which gave us our bearings. Further
down we saw a small sloop tied up on
the river bank, so we left our raft and
soon found a cabin with plenty of grub.
The old man In charge wanted to give
us only a little bowl of mush at first, but
the men were desperate, and I went to
making hot cakes with flour and water.
They would grab them oft the frying
pan before they could' cook, and simply
gorged themselves. The result was that
In a few minutes, every one of the outfit
was sick.
"After getting a supply of grub here,
we Btarted on our way and were soon
picked up by a little coast steamer,
which carried us Into Nomev This was
before the stampede from the States, and
gold dust was as common there then as
sawdust Is In some places."
Mr. Pilgrim told many tales of the good
times at Nome. He thinks It Is the
greatest place on earth to live now, and
predicts that it will become the greatest
gold-producing country in the world. "The
production this year was over ?6,000,000,
and he says it will be far greater next
season, as much machinery will he then
Installed and hydraulic mining In prog
ress. "There are now under construction over
200 miles of ditch and with all this water
supply and good machinery, the gold will
be taken out in great quantities. Ono
good hydraulic elevator will do as much
work as 50 men by the old method, so
the great advantage Is evident. Many
people have gone up there and failed, so
come below the new Duchess In the social
scale. As for the Countess of Yarmouth,
who was Miss Thaw, of Pittsburg, she
must content herself in tho list below all
the Dukes and Duchesses that of the
Earls.
The followlng-4s a character sketch of
the Duke, by a native of Kelso, Scotland;
"The Duke was a favorite with every
body wlio had anything to say to him a3
a youth. He was a reserved but fine
tempered, steady-going, reliable lad, and
a dutiful and attentlvo son and brother.
Of course, his military duties and his ab
sence in South Africa have prevented us
from seeing so much of him of late years,
but he has Justified every anticipation
formed of him. He has grown into a fine,
manly fellow, and but for the fact of his
being Duke, it is well known that he
would have been awarded the Victoria
Cross for one conspicuous act of bravery
in South Africa. He saved a wounded
trooper, mounting him on his1 own horse
under a heavy fire, and rode with him to
a place of safety In a very hot skirmish
with the Boers.
"He Is a great sportsman, Nand good at
all kinds of sports and pastimes. He can
always be relied upon to give a good ac
count of himself on the curling link, the
cricket field, the hunting field, or the golf
links. He Is an excellent sporting shot
and a first-rate angler. This Is hered
itary his father was one of the best salmon-rods
In Scotland, and was tho first
British nobleman to own a Norwegian
salmon river.
"The Duke is very good to every one
under him. It was only a few weeks
back that he found a number of employes
on the estate at work late on Saturday
afternoon. On Inquiry lie was told by his
factor that this was an old custom of the
place, and the Duke at once gave orders
that they should all have a half-holiday
on Saturday, besides stopping work an
hour earlier on every other day In tho
week."
The tenantry on the various Scotland
! estates and other friends and neighbors
aro already bestirring themselves to make
suitable celebration of the wedding local
ly, and are subscribing handsomely to
provide fitting wedding gifts for the Duke
and his bride.
The Duchess of Roxburghe and Miss
i Goelet have already" met more than once,
' and Her Grace has caused It to be un
t derstood that she Is highly pleased with
' the Duke's choice of a bride and of a suc
' cesser to herself as chatelaine of Floors.
Tho younger members of the family are
also delighted with their new sister-in-law.
There are here all the elements of
a happy union, and the young Duchess
may be assured of a welcome to her new
home characterized by all the warm
heartedness of the border people.
i
they are knockers, but It should be under
stood that Nome Is not a poor man's
country, There Is plenty of gold there
and plenty of claims to be had, but it
takes money to work them. A bona fide
company with $60,000 or $75,000 can go
there and make a million In two or three
years, but a man without capital is bet
ter off at home."
A great lot of nuggets and dust were ex
hibited, and Mr Pilgrim told of having

board In the prediction of a Seattle for

the third day out. Even the captain was
not Immune from It, and deciding to
take no chances, he put Into Dutch Har
