THE RICHEST MAN IN AMERICA.
How He Is Viewed Abroad The Vain
Quest of a British Lion-Seeker.
We felt a craving: yearning, a
gnawing to see and touch and speak
with the richest man in America; to
stare at his silver statues and his car
pets interwoven with threads of gold;
and we took passage for New York in
the Brixtonian.
As we landed on the quay an ex
cited bjrstander took us by the button
hole and drew us feverishly aside. "See
that homely-looking man way long
there, passin' under the elevator,
stranger?" he whispered hurriedly, and
with ill-suppressed emotion; "wall,
then, you see the richest man in Ameri
ca! Came over twelve years since from
lown Kansas wa-, wha. he was raised;
hadn't a nickel; struck in a notion for
a corner in baked beans, and raked in
$10,000,000 in nine weeks, and eats ter
rapin tarts fried in humming-birds1 fat
to every meal!"
We had found him, then! Breath
less with excitement we followed him
along the quay and streets, observing
him attentively. He had a wooden
leg and one button off the back of his
coat, a large mole on the back edge of
his right ear, and a gray felt hat with
a green lining. He entered a dining
saloon, and we eagerly took a seat op
posite to h:m; he had one wall eye
and one bloodshot one, seven front
teeth out, and a black and yellow
necktie.
Presently he engaged our attention
by excitedly kicking us under the
table.
' "See that stout man coasting around
the iee-bucket?" he asked, breath
lessly. "Whaat? Well, you take it
from me that's the richest man in
Amurriker. bar none. Started nine
years ago as assistant odd job hand to
a toothpick sorter down Five Points,
and struck twenty thousand million
dollars in seven weeks, and cats gold
dust sauce with his truillud ostrich
every breakfast!"
TiVe had found him then! We burst
ay from the diuing-saloou, and
rushed after the party indicated. He
had lost both ears from frost-bite, and
had one shoulder four indies higher
than the other, and a green cutaway
coat patched with sacking. lie halt
not gone three blocks when he turned
suddenly in the utmost excitement and
gripped us by the arm.
."See that fence-rail of a crittur with
the respirator stauuin' by the lire
alarm?" he asked. "You bet that's
just the richest man in Aniurracky, so
he is, boss! Went down 'Frisco "way,
without a rag on his back six j-ea'rs
come next independence, and banked
$30,000,000,000 in five weeks. Sleeps
in a bedstead cut out of a single dia
mond and sends his boots to be heeled
wrapped in $1,000,000 bills."
We thought we couldn't "follow that
man; he had a hare-lip, and pants
made out of old carpet; but we aban
doned him, and 'inquired of a hotel
clerk who was the best authority on
the subject of the ri best man in
America. The clerk told us to go to
the editor of the Spread Eagle, in
979th street, over the .Naphtha drink-ing-saloon.
"We hear," we said, "that you, sir,
are an authority in the matter of the
richest man in America?"
"I'll tell you about him right away,"
said the editor. "I'll give you the
outlines of nim; and then you can buy
a file of the special editions of the
Spread Eagle, which have three col
umns devoted to him daily. The inch
est man in America, sir, is Groulter
Q. Vanboom, who set out from Grub
squash Cit3r, Kas., with 5 cents sewn
in the heel of his boots, and coffered
forty thousand million dollars in three
weeks. He was the man that grassed
Elisha J. Vennerhezzet over the White
Daylight Cherub's Blush Silver Syndi
cate boom, down Grogg's country,
California, when Elisha was prospect
ing way down there, and Elisha is now
the richest man in America. It was
he who came the mean thing upon
Chaldea V. Bloobder about the cotton
oil scare you've heard tell about
ChaldeaV. Bloobder, the richest man
in America? Why, it was about that
man that Silas J. Seeker, the richest
man in America, used to say "
Then we left, and slowly cooled
down toward the richest man in Ameri
ca. Then we took on tracking down
the tallest thing in railway swindles
and the quickest-grown out west city,
and we are on the track of nine of
each of them. From London Fun.
James Addington, of East Aurora,
N. Y., has a meerschaum pipe that is
probably the finest in the country, for
it is valued at $500. The pipe is thir
teen inches in length from the bowl to
the tip of the mouthpiece, and is an ex
quisite piece of handsome carving. It
took the workman three years to com
plete the task of making it.
FVThe following frank statement from J. E.
Hare, of Trenton, Texas, will be of interest
to many of our citezena. "My little boy
was very bad off for two months'witU diar
rhoea. We used various medicines, also call
ed in two Doctors, but nothing done him any
good until we used Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea lleineilv, which gave
immediate relief and soon cured him. I con
sider it the best medicine made and can con
scientiously reccommend it to all who need
a diarrhoea or colic medicine." For sale by

EARLY HOMESTEAD CLAIMANTS-
How The Pioneers of The West Begin
Life The Dug-cut.
To begin with, the habitation of the
homesteader is either a dugout or a
house built of squares of sod taken
from the prairie Nebraska or Kansas
brick, as they are facetiously termed.
The dugout consists of a hole dug in
the side of a canon or any sort of a
depression on the prairie which will
serve as a wind-break. This hole is
roofed across, about on a level with
the prairie, wi h inch boards, and
these are covered with sod. A foot or
so of stove-pipe protruding from the
roof is the sole indication of a human,
habitation. One room generally serve
all the. purposes of the homesteader
and his family. If he prospers for s.
season, he adds to the front of his
abode by erecting walls of sod on the
side and putting in a new frout.the old
one serving as a partition between the
two rooms. This is considered a com
modious dwelling. After riding over
a quarter section looking for an owner,
espying such an abode, and guiding
your team carefully down a break-neck
descent to the front door, would it sur
prise you, upon entering this hole in
the ground, to find, for instance, a
modern organ with an imposing cathe
dral back towering high in one corner
of the room? But this is no cause for
astonishment very frequently organs
and ornate designs in furniture are to
be found in tho dugouts. Or, if the
lady of the house should invite you to
remain for the meeting of the literary
club there in the evening, would you
stare at that? Not at all. Literary
clubs, which the members ride all the
way from live to twenty miles to at
tend, and where they discuss every
thing from the latest political problem
to tho most abstruse point in meta
physics, are quite the regular thing
with our homesteaders. But to behold
this life so full of paradoxes in the
heisjht of its incoiiirruousness- vou
should be a spectator in the dugout
when a neighborhood dance is in' full
blast. The earthen walls hare been
skilfully tapestried for the occasion
with calico, and when the fan begins
the clay floor speedily responds to the
capering of the many twinkling feet,
and there arises a cloud of dust that
would tille an Indian. But, bless j'ou,
they don't miud a bit of dust. A pol
ished floor and the most perfect system
of ventilation attainable could not add
to their enjoyment.
The homesteaders are very honest.
You can leave a house unlocked at all
times and your stores are perfectly
safe with the exception of what liquor
you may have on liana for medicinal
purposes. In other words, the home
steader will steal whisky evciy- time.
As a class they are neighborly, kind to
one in distress, and exceedingly hos
pitable. But it must not be supposed that all
homesteaders live in dugouts or sleep
six or seven in a room; such experienc
es attach to the first year or two of
frontier life more tha'nto any later pe
riod. Many sightly, commodious, and
comfortable sod houses have been
built. The walls are usually two feet
in thickness, the roof shingled, doors
and windows set into the walls, and
the house plastered inside, sometimes
outside, altogether making a very neat
and desirable residence. These 'struc
tures too, are free from tho annoyan
ces of dugouts, in which are found all
manner of insects and rodents. Occa
sionally a rattlesnake will burrow
through the earthen sides, andcoil
himself snugly in the bedclothes, where
you will tind him on a cool morning.
Such intruders are rare, but there are
some people who strenuously object to
even rare Visits of this sort; such are
usually energetic enough to get out of
the old house and into a new one be
fore spending many months in an
abode so uncomfortably near to na
ture's heart. Frank H. Spearman, in
Harper's Magazine.
Our Eyes are Close Together.
The effort of the war department to
secure a field glass for the service of
greater power than the one they now
use has discovered the fact that the
eyes of the average American are
closer together than those of men in
foreign countries. The double glass,
known as the field glass, now used is
weaker than that used in the armies of
Europe. It is only from five to six
powers entirely too weak for the pur
pose. The only glass they can get of
sufficient power is a single spy-glass,
which is defective in that it tloes not
take in a broad enough field. The best
military glass in use is' that with which
the German army is supplied. An at
tempt was made to adopt them by the
war department, but it was found that
the eyes of the glasses were so far
apart that they could not be used by
Americans. The department is study
ins now to overcome this difficulty.

Deafness Among White Animals.
Why is it, I wonder, that white ani
mals are so often deaf? Tho white
English terrier is almost alwa3Ts so,
and the white English bull terrier is
very frequently afflicted with this de-"
feet.' 1 am told by those who are
skilled in'white cats that they, too, are
apt to have the same infirmity, and I
have heard, though I can not cite my
authority on the spot, that a white goat
is even more deaf to reason and dis
course than other animals of the same
species but of positive color. So far
as I know white horses have the usual
sense of hearing, though investigation
might prove that they were deficient
in this respect Boston Post.
Esthetic Chicago.
Chicago, notwithstanding its pork.is
a city of considerable culture. Its pa
pers lauL'h at the idea of esthetic Chi
cago, and when anything is said about
the culture of the city the contrast is
always drawn between hogs and art.
It has, however, 200 resident artists,
and its Academy of Fine Arts is self
supporting and is attended yearly by
between 400 and 500 pupils." It gives
art exhibitions each fall, and at the
loan exhibitions a number of line pic
tures of the city are brought forth. It
is no wonder, however, that Chicago
has many line pictures.' It is full of
millionaires, and the millionaire of to
day, whether he makes his money out
of pork or politics, or gets it by inheri
tance, straightway starts off to Europe
and buys the prettiest things he can
find. The Americans are the best buy
ers of the world to-day, and they pay
higher prices, and, as "a rule, demand
good work. They want the finest of
houses, and some of these Chicago mil
lionaires' palaces would open the ej'es
of the Princes across the water. Frank
Carpenter's Chicago Letter.
New Wrinkle in Picture Frames.
The new picture frames of oak or chest
nut shaded by the rubbing in of umber
from light at the inside to dark at the
outer edge are the latest fad in their
line. They are especially effective when
used around a tinted print of a shade
nearly matching the. edge of the frame.
It is predicted, however, that they will
soon become too common and go out
of fashion. Some dealers in New- York
won't put such frames on pictures sold
by them at all, claiming that the style
violates artistic taste. At one dealer's
a still more striking frame is having
a run of popularity. It is of broad
oak with real bars half an inch thick.
I colored to look like iron, set across it
from side to side. Imitation hinges on
one side and a real-looking padlock on
the other increase the resemblance to
the barred door of a cage. With a
- picture of the head of a lion or other
beast behind it the effect is startling,
, if not strictly artistic. Kew York Sun.
, The Kind of Candidate They Wanted.
! An old settler tells this story about
New Mexican politics: When Fran
cisco Manzauares was running against
Tranquilano Lunda for delegate to
Congress some years ago I happened
to be present at a meeting in Silver
. City, where Luna delivered a political
harangue in which he compared his
immaculate honesty to the alleged cor
rupt methods of Manzanares. "Fellow-citizens,"
he said, "I do not come
among j-ou to buy your votes. I want
them to be given to me honestly. I am
not like my opponent, whose loaded
wagons, tilled with goods ot all kinds
to be given for your votes, incumber
every trail and road in the Southwest."
He did not get further in his speech;
the crowd yelled themselves hoarse
with cries of "Viva Mauzanares." He
was the kind of delegate they wanted.
A Dressmaker's Tuck.
A smart dressmaker not only learns
to round a bust, but she can so deftly
pad the sleeves that when the wrist is
seen it seems only the slender termina
tion of a plump arm. The gown of a
thin girl in New York, one who has the
reputation of being a singularly good
lijnirc, suggests a quilt heavily wadded
! more than anything else. Back, hips,
j sleeves, and bust are all the result of
clever workmanship. And it is so clever
that tailor-made gowns are defiantly
worn by this girl, and the most critical
clubmen find no Haw in the outlines of
her figure. Philadelphia Times.
SCHOOL PICNIC.
The closing exercises of the Bllefountain
and Alpine schools, taught by T. H. Gragg
aul Miss Mary Newton, were held at ;the
Bellfountaiu camp ground, Saturday, June
27th.
. The four hours programme was delivered
from r. very beautifully decorated stage, aud
the scholars handled their essays, declama
tions, tableaux, and dialogues in a manlier
which well repaid them and their teachers
for tho energy aud patience with which
they had pursued their preparations.
One scene which especially deserves
mention was the tableau, "Rock of Agee,"
prepared by Miss Newton, in which a pretty
little girl kneeled clinging to a cross about
which was entwiued a beautiful wreath cf
bridal roses while behind, the scenes a
chorus of sweetest voices sung softly "Rotk
of Ages."
The Alsea band was present aud its mem
bers merit compliments, not for their ex
cellent music alone, but also for their gen
teel and orderly deportment.
Miss Ethel Starr executed "Fort Thomas
March" ou the organ very prettily.
Mr. Homer Woodcock favored the audi
ence with two nice pieces upon his guitar.
The vocal music, for. wnich this part of
the county is sometimes praised, was not
any below par on that day.
Hear the close of the afternoon session,
Hon. E. H. Belknap delivered one of his
masterly and thrilling addresses.
The day was a success throughout, and
the crowd of people assembled awakened
happy memories of the good old campmeet

Footprints of the World's History.
It is a relief to pick up a new book that
is at once thrilling, romantic, wholesome,
pure and true. Such a work is "Footprints
of the World's History," the latest and
greatest work of the two celebrated histor
ians, John Clark Sidpath and Wm. S.
Bryan. These distinguished gentlemen,
having won their laurels by independent
writings, have co operated oil this work,
and produced a gem "of the purest ray
serene." It is not a dry uninteresting
statement of the plain facts, but rather
each of the most important events of his
tory has been taken up and described by a
master of language, who holds the reader
entranced as he wends hi3 way along the
path of history, following carefully in the
footprints of progress.
We are delighted with this superb vol
ume. Perfect in thought, superb in style,
and magnificent in execution. The bind
ings are sumptuous, as are also the many
illustrations and colored plates. The Pub
lishers have rightly concluded that such a
gem should have a rich Setting.
It is a valuable addition to literature. It
is a book for the old as well as the young;
tlie married as well as the single; the e;ay as
well as the grave. Everybody will read it
with equal eagerness and profit. It is sold
only through agents, and the publishers' ad
vertisement appears in another column.
