Who Mulligan is- THM OCCUPATIONS AND PECULIARI TIES OF A MAN WHO FIGURES IN THE PRESENT CANVASS. Boston Letter in the St. Paul Pioneer-Press. One of the notables of the Hub, and particularly at the present time, is James Mulligan, of Mulligan letter fame. For several years he has led a very retired life, and so little has been heard of him that many believed him dead. But he is some ways from death yet, and, though somewhat in years, is still active. He can be seen almost any day at the United States Hotel, where he has lived a bachelor's life for nearly thirty yeras in quiet comfort, oc cupying two richly furnished apart ments. Personally he is about five feet eight inches in height, of spare build, pale from confinement of vears to the clerk's desk, with brown eyes and dark hair. He is quite approachable aud] is an interesting conversationalist. To be sure, the most of his conversation dur ing the past eight years has been upon the subject of letters which Blaine wrote to him ; but the reason of this is that everybody who meets him always inaints upon talking upon that subject. But Mulligan never tires of it—in fact, he has to say about just so much in reference to them every day or else he doesu't feel like himself. His exist ence is made somewhat unhappy by the repeated visits of correspondents and newspaper men, who seek to interview him and secure copies of the remaining letters in his posession. He manages, however to keep them at a distance and refuses to say anything whatever upon the matter to them. His daily mail is voluminous on the subject, but he never answers any of the inquiries. Some of the letters he receives are of a threatening nature. Several times he has been notified that he would be way laid and assaulted when a good oppor tunity offered,so that he rarely remains out nights and only when in company with gentlemen upon whom he can re ly for assistance and pi otaction. He has nothing to worry him but this, for he is quite wealthy and lives as he cares to upon his income. He manages the estate left by the senior Fisher at bis death 'and several others as well Fisher thought a great deal of Mulligan and appointed him a trus tee of his property. Mulligan was born in Dublin, is a devout Catholic and a patriotic Irishman. In politics he is a Democrat. He hates General Butler cordially,bat speaks well of Mr.} Blaine, denominating him "a good fellow." He says that he would not have produc ed the letters in 1876, at the time of the Congressional investigation, had it not been for the request of Blaine and the insinuations that "he, a mere book-keeper, would not dare testify a gainst Blaine." Mulligan was the confidential book keeper of Jacob Stamwood,of this city, in 1851. In 1865 he was employed by the Adams Sngar Refinery Company, in which Warren Fisher, Jr., was inter ested and to whom Mulligan was a conflnential clerk. Later he was treas urer of the Globe Theatre here. A3 before stated, he does little or nothing now. His pleasures are few. He loves a good cigar, however, aud delights to go to the theatre. He has a number of letters, written to him and to Mr. Fisher, which the anti-Blaine newspa era are eager to get. They are said to be as important as those which have been made public. Enormous sums of money have been offered for these let ters, but he refuses to sell them. He has promised to give them to a Boston paper tor publication shortly as well as an interview which will contain all he knows about the matter. A Very Strange Marriage. A Man of Sixty Wedded to Hie Sev enteen-Year-Old Adopted Daughter. [Cleveland (O.) Special] Jacob Kritch is one of the solid busi ness men of this city. He is Superin tendent of the Cleveland Axle Manu facturing Company. Kritch some years ago invented ]a patent axle-box, which brought him in considerable wealth, and from which he still re ceives a royality on all manufactured iu the United ( Btates. Until last summer he resided in a beautiful residence at 1430 Wilson ayenue. Last June Mrs. Kritch died, and soon after the discon. solate widower engaged a suit of rooms in the Myers Block, corner of Wood land and Irving streets, where he still resides. * Kritch has but two children, K. E. Kritch, a well-to-do business man, and an adopted daughter, Bertha, a very handsome young lady, who has been for some time attending school at the convent at Nottingham. Superinten dent Kritch and his late wife adopted Bertha sixteen years ago, when she was an infant one year old, and she has always been a dutiful daughter. She was overwhelmed with grief when her mother died, ten months ago, but soon rallied from her sorrow and was once more the happy, guileless school girl. The lonely widower became enamor ed of a handsome lady of White ayenue and the spinster and the venerable beau Kritch were affianced. The match was approved by friends of both par ties. It was not a May and December match by any means,but rather an Au gust and December one, as the lovely maid was nearing her fortieth aniver aary on earth, while lover Kritch was In his sixtieth year. The aged but nimble swain took his sweetheart to the theatre, out riding, and to yariotis places, and last week they visited Bertha at Nottingham, and her father acquainted his daughter of the propos ed marriage,at the same time introduc ing her to her mother to be. A few days afterward Bertha receiv ed permission to go home for a few days,and now comes the strangest part of the narrative. Superintendent Kritch obtained a short leave of ab sence, and he and his adopted daughter Bertha repaired to Erie, Pa., on April 30. A license had been previously ob tained, and they were united iu mar riage by the Rev. Val Kern, of the Pro testant Evangelical Church May 1. The May festival being over, they re turned to Cleveland,and Bertha remain ed with her husband until yesterday, when he took her back to school. The bashful groom is sixty and the blushing bride about seventeen. An instinctive taste teaches men to build their churches in flat countries with spire steeples, which, as they can not be referred to any other object, point as with silent linger to the sky and stars. Real merit of any kind can not be concealed ; it will be discovered, and nothing can depreciate it but a man's showing it himself. It may not always be rewarded as it ought; but it will al ways be known. To LIVE.— So should we live that every hour May fall as falls the natural flower, A self-reviving thing of power ; That every thought and everv deed May hold within itself a seed Of future good and future need; Esteeming sorrow, whose employ Is to develop, not destroy, Far better than a barren joy.
