Fair Empress! sitting by the sounding sea,
_Enthrowned in beauty, power, majesty,
The crested waves their homage pay to thee,
And at thy feet they bend the subject knee;
i though thy empire is of later date :
Than sister kingdoms by the Ocean main,
Thou swayest well the scepter of thy reign,
Nor less thy Court's true dignity and state—
The Triton King, who stands upon thy shore,
And winds forever on his limpid shell
The passions deep that in his bosom dwell,
Shall ever call thy votaries to adore,
Renew their vows of fealty to thee,
Oceanic maid ! fair City by the sea!

Stories From Cripple Creek Which Surpass Those
of Monte Cristo.—Stratton, the Carpenter.—Who
Has Made Something Like $10,000,000 Within
Five Years,—Began with Almost Nothing,—How a
Boulder Pointed Out the Road to Immense Fort-
une.—Rapid Rise From Poverty to Wealth..
Thousands fail in mining. Hundreds
make a living. Tens amass a competency,
but it is only now and then one by a
lucky stroke of the pick finds an enormous
fortune and keeps it. David Moffat, the
mining king, says the failures are not so
great as in other businesses. It is certain
that the successes are more phenomenal.
I write to-day not of the failures, but of
the successes, the millionaires of Cripple
Creek. Out of this gold camp, within five |
years, has come $13,000,000. The gold
dug out last year was worth $8,000,000,
and this year the output promises to he
fully at large. The stories I hear of gold
dug out and gold in sight make my avaric-
ious mouth water, and, like the hungry,
ragged newsboy on the street outside the
confectionery store, I press my nose against
the glass and long for the riches within.
Take, for instance, W. S. Stratton, who
owns the great Independence mine, which
has been turning out nearly $2,000 a day
for the past year, and in which itis es-
timated there are from four to seven mil-
lion dollars of gold in sight.
CAN ONLY ESTIMATE HIS WEALTH.
It is one of the richest gold mines of the
world, and the man who owns it was work-
ing five years ago at a carpenters bench.
Up to that time he would have been glad,
I venture, to have netted from the work of
his hands $50 a month. His mine last
year, it is said, produced $960,000, at a
cost of about 10 cents on the dollar, and
the ore is so rich that he has to keep back
his workmen for fear that he will not be
able to invest the money which he receives
from the gold which they get out. So far
he has spent his surplus in buying other
mines, and he has to-day properties which,
I am told, make him the largest individual
owner of gold mines in the world. I doubt
whether he knows himself what he is
avorth. I know that no one can figure up-
on his possibilities. I am told that Mar-
shall Field and other Chicago capitalists of-
fered him $7,000,000 for his Independence
mine alone, and long ago he refused an of-
fer of $3,000,000 for it. He does not like
to talk about it, and I doubt whether an
offer of $10,000,000 would tempt him. He
says that the gold is in the mine and can’t
run away. Itis safer there than in the
safe deposit, and the best bank for him is
old mother earth.
And still T would not like to be Winfield
Scott Stratton. I would not change places
with him for all his millions. This thought
came forcibly upon me as I sat with him
in his little office over a bicycle store in
Colorado Springs the other day and watched
him closely as I listened to him. He is
only 48 years of age, but he looks to be
more than 60. His hair is as white as the
riven snow, and his naturally dark com-
plexion has heen changed toa mahogany
brown by the hardships of his laborious ca-
reer and the anxiety of his hunt for gold.
He is nervous in the extreme.
THE STORY OF STRATTON’S LIFE.
The story of his life is that of a man who
has devoted himself to finding a mine, and
who after 20 years of failure has at last suc-
ceeded. He has succeeded by luck and
work more than by any special ability, and
though he is a man of good, common sense,
I judge you might find 90 men quite as
good out of any 100 carpenters you could
select. Born in Indiana, having learned
the carpenter's trade, he drifted out to
Colorado Springs when he was along about
20 years of age. He began at once to pros-
pect for gold. He worked at his trade in
the winter to get the money necessery to
keep him alive in the mountains in the
summer, and day after day and year after
year he climbed the rocks and wandered
over the hills looking for mines. At one
time he had saved $3,000. He invested
this in a mine and lost it. He failed again
and again, and up until 1891 he was worth
practically nothing. He had at this time
a house in Colorado Springs, which was
mortgaged, and it was in May of that year
that he, rendered almost desperate by his
repeated failures, went to prospect about
Cripple Creek. He realized that there was
some gold in the boulders or float which
lay upon the grazing lands of this region,
but up to this time no one had considered
the rock to be worth much.
FORTUNE WAS WAITING FOR HIM.
As Stratton walked over the fields he
noticed one stone, the corner of which
some former prospector had chipped off.
He picked up the broken piece and sent it
to Denver to be assayed. It yielded over
$300 to the ton. This was a surprise to
Stratton. He at once gathered a wagon
load of other stones lying about the place
and sent these to the assayer’s. They told
him that the last was worth only $10 a
ton. This, however, showed Stratton that
there was gold there, and he staked out a
claim about the big boulder, and went to
work. It was the Fourth of July when he
began to mine, and he named his property
“The Independence,” in honor of the day.
He found gold almost from the grass roots.
The ore grew richer as he dug down, and
after a short time he found pockets and fis-
sures filled with geld. The gold did not
run regularly. Sometimes there would be
a pocket as hig as the average parlor, and
sometimes the rock containing the rich ore
would extend only to the size of a tumbler.
He sunk his shaft, however, and ran out
laterals from two to three hundred feet on
either side. He soon began to find gold
everywhere. Even the rocks lying on the
surface of the ground netted him a fortune.
There were some great houlders near his
shaft. He had these broken up with dy-
namite, and from them alone he got $60,-
000. It was not however, all clear sailing.
At one time the gold seemed to have played
out, and he offered to sell the mine for
$150,000. His offer was refused, and with-
in a few days after this he made another
rich strike, and for twenty-five days he
took out about $1,000 a day. At present
he has gone between six and seven hund-
red feet down into the earth, and there is
no doubt whatever but that there are mil-
lions of dollars’ worth of gold between the
levers which have been already mined.
The mine seems to be growing richer as it
goes downward, and his refusal to sell it.
for $7,000,000 was in the minds of many
here a good business decision.
POOR MEN WHO MADE MILLIONS.
Stratton received-more than $12,000 last
year in dividends from his stock in the
mine. This mine lies just back of the In-
dependence, and its enormous frame build-
ings can be seen for miles about Cripple
Creek. Its chief owners are three men,
who were almost down on their uppers five
years ago, but who through it, are now enor-
mously wealthy. . Their mine produced
last year more than $2,000,000 worth of
gold, and its president, James F. Burns,
says that if it were worked to its full ca-
pacity it could turn out more than $10,000,-
000 this year. At the time Stratton dis-
covered the Independence mine Burns was
working at his trade as a plumber. One of
his partner, James Doyle, was then saw-
ing and planing as a carpenter, and the
thi@} partner, John Harnan, was working
on the road in Colorado Springs, holding a
scraper for 15 cents an hour. It was Har-
nan who discovered the mine. His claim
at the start was not bigger than the aver-
age city lot, but the property surrounding
it, which has since been purchased by these
three men, now embraces about, 150 acres.
Harnan had been working for some time
on his little city lot claim, while Burns
and Doyle had staked out a claim a little
further up the mountain. Their claim was
rather close to the Independence. They
had worked at it for some time and yet dis-
covered nothing. Harnan had been doing
some prospecting for Stratton. He had
been down in the Independence mine, and
he knew its wonderful riches. He thought
that Burns and Doyle had a good thing;
and he asked them how much they would
give him if he would take the claim and
show them it was worth something. They
replied that they would give him a third
interest. He at once went to work and
soon struck *‘pay rock,” which was won-
derfully valuable. For some time they
tried to keep the fact a secret, for they
knew that if Dave Moffat and the other
capitalists who were working about them
should learn of the value of the property,
they would buy all the claims about it.
So they got their ore out in secret and car-
ried it down from the mine at night in
sacks on their backs.
THEIR SECRET WAS DISCOVERED.
As the ore got richer the sacks were not
large enough to carry all they wanted. So
one night they took a wagon up to the
mine and prepared to haul it away by the
wagon load. They overloaded their wagon
however, and it broke down just as they
were about to leave the mine. The next
day the ore was found on the side of the
hill, with the broken wagon near it. This
showed the value of the mine, and from
that time on they hauled their ore out.
They had, however, to fight for their rights.
Other miners tried to jump their claim,
and Burns took a shotgun and drove them
out at the point of it. They had 47 law
suits about their title, but their ore was so
valuable that they were able to pay for the
best legal talent and held their own. They
got Stratton to go in with them, and they
added the Anna Lee and other mines to
their property, until it is now one of the
most valauble in the world. President
Burns estimates that their average output
is worth $70 a ton, and he says that there
is one streak of ore in the mine that is
worth about $38,000 a ton, the rock run-
ning 19 ounces of gold to the ton. At the
selling value of the Portland stock the:
property is worth between $4,000,000 and
$5,000,000, and I venture you could not
buy it for $6,000,000. They paid last year
more than $480,000 in. dividends, and un-
til last year they were paying 3 cents a
share in dividends every month. They
have given a pledge to their stockholders
that they will pay 36 per cent in dividends
this year, and they claim that they have
not begun to get near the end of their won-
derful gold treasure. The mine has now it
is said, five miles of workings, and its ma-
chinery is some of the finest known.
Many of the best mines here have no
stock on the market. The oldest miners
of Colorado say that Cripple Creek will last
for fifty years, and all kinds of fabulous es-
timates are made as the amount of gold
which will be turned out. Gov. Grant the
manager of the Grant and Omaha smelter
at Denver, is reported as saying that in
seventeen years Cripple Creek will produce
$500,000,000 worth of gold.
MILLION AIRES OF CRIPPLE CREEK.
I could give numerous instances of fort-
une making in mines. I could find per-
haps 10,000 times as many instances of men
losing in mines but mining is in reality a
legitimate business, and I believe, if fol-
lowed with the same care, investigation
and business ability as are required to give
success in other businesses, the chances of
making money aregood. Here for instance
is a list of the millionaries of Cripple Creek
as given by an old miner. I do not vouch
for the truth of his estimates :
W. 8. Stratton was worth nothing,
now worth $10,000,000.
James F. Burns, James Doyle and*John
Harnan, each worth more than a million,
made out of Portland. and other properties.
James R. McKinnie, a friend of Stratton
and one of his advisers, has made a million.
David H. Moffat, long a millionaire, has
easily made two or more million out of
Cripple Creek. He owns the Florence and
Cripple Creek Railroad, which cost a mil-
lion, but which paid for itself in six months
and is still making money.
Irving Howharb, of Colorado Springs, the
owner of the Anchoria Leland, has made a
million. ;
Eben Smith, Moffat’s partner, has also
made a fortune out of Cripple Creek.
LARGE RETURNS FOR $1,000.
J. F. Maynard, of Utica, N. Y., paid
$1,000 for the Moose mine on Raven Hill.
This mine is said now to produce from
$6,000 to $18,000 a month. An offer of
$600,000 has been refused for it, but May-
nard and his partners ask $2,000,000.
R. C. Shannon, who beat Amos Cum-
mings for Congress, is said to have made a
quarter of a million of the Anchoria Le-
land and the Portland, and the El Paso
Gold King mine, which cost its owners $300
is said to be worth nearly a million.
In short there are about ten men who
have made something like a million dollars
out of Cripple Creek. There are 100 men
who have made more than $50,000 apiece,
and there are perhaps 1,000 men who have
made $20,000 apiece. Nearly all of this
money has gone to Colorado people, though
the French are now investing largely and
have some of the best properties here.

Would You Exchange Your Position For that of
Cornelius Vanderbilt 2? ~_/
Looking at the things which effect the
the life of Mr. Cornelius Vanderbilt, de-
rived from his wealth, and weighing the
advantages against the drawbacks, the
possession of $100,000,000 does not appear
in itself to bring happiness. It certainly
has not bfought it to him. Study the
latest picture of him, the view of him on
his daughter’s wedding day.
He was brought into the reception room
of his noble villa in a chair. Not yet 53, his
body was shattered with paralysis, the
disease which killed his father. The oc-
casion was the going out from under his
roof—to a certain extent out of his life—
of his favorite daughter. Four years ago
his eldest son, on whom he had built his
hopes for family succession, died. A few
weeks ago the second son, bearing his name,
married against his will and left him.
His brother’s name has recently been
mixed up ina divorce suit and the children
were not present at their cousin’s wedding.
“A $200,000 fence surrounds the villa
where the sick millionaire was sitting, but
it could not keep the family troubles from
getting out nor prevent their public dis-
cussion. And Corneilus Vanderbilt knew
this as he sat there and knew that it was
the price of his distinction and wealth.
This, then, is America’s greatest million-
aire today. His $100,000,000 have not
saved him from breaking down at an early
age when men may hope for 20 years of
calm life to look forward to it has not pro-
tected him from the attcks of death upon
his family, nor from the pain of a son’s dis-
obedience, nor from any of the world’s
troubles exeept poverty. :
What man, with strength and health,
earning by his own efforts enough to sup-
port a true wife and affectionate children,
no matter how humbly, would exchange
places with Cornelius Vanderbilt ?>—New

Esq., of Harrisburg. Some of them are
noted for their great age and some for their
characteristics that make them very rare,
and the entire lot—some sixty in number
—is said to be very valuable. Recently |
there was added to Mr. Kelker’s collection
of Bibles a rare volume that is not much
for size, but is unique in its way. When
Gilbert McCauley, Esq., was in London he
secured a copy of the minature Bible of
which there has been considerable talk on
this side’ of the water. He brought it
home as a _ present for Kelker, and
and it is now in that gentleman’s collec-
tion. This Bible is one and one-eight inches
wide by one and five eights inches long,
the printing and the job work are the finest,
while the binding is perfect. There are
twenty eight illustrations, all good, and
altogether the little book isa gem. In a
little pocket attached to the lid is a small
reading glass, which has great magnifying

Facts About Money.
Objections and Misrepresentations of Gold Men
Answered by Figures Taken From Reports.
In all the world there is only $3,700,-
000,000 of gold. It would not quite fill a
packing case of twenty-two cubic feet. For
the population of the world it is only $2.50
per capita.
In all the world there is only enough sil-
ver to make a cube of sixty-six feet yet we
are threatened with a ‘‘silver flood.”’
The greatest amount of silver ever pro-
duced in any one year, was $82,000,000,
which divided among the 70,000,000 popu-
lation of the United States. would be but a
trifie over $1 apiece. This production
would have to double every thirty-four
years in order to keef pace with the in-
crease of the population.
The amount of gold irthé United States
is about $4.50 to each person, “while the
debt of the same if dividéd up would be
just $700 to each person. Can anyone ex-
plain how $700 debt can be paid with
$4.50 of ‘‘sound money ?”’ 2
Colorado has six gold mines that produce
gold at less than 10 cents expense to the
dollar ; over 30 which produce it for less
than 25 cents per dollar, and the average
of the well developed mines is about 40
cents. On the other hand, silver cannot
be produced at a profit until the price is
over $1 per ounce.
It is an absolute proven fact that gold
and silver has not kept pace in production
with the increase of population and the de-
mands of cemmerce yet the one metal is
forced to render the service that both can- |.
not do properly.
The annual production of both gold and
silver in the United States lacks over
$2,000,000,000 of being enough to pay the
“| annual interests on our debts.
The net earnings, over all expenses, of
the banks, in the United States have aver-
aged over sixty-nine millions of dollars per
year during the past ten years. Compare
this with your own earnings and see who
has made the better investment.
The world’s population is increasing
more rapidly than ever before, and the
population of the United States doubles
every thirty-four years ; there is no prospect
of any material increase in the supply of
gold, while its use in thearts and dentistry
increases every year.
Confiscation.
The beauty of the single gold standard
in its effects upon farmers and small prop-
erty holders cannot be illustrated any bet-
ter than to recall the experience of farmers
in Great Britian after it was adopted. Over
three-fourth of the farms in Great Britian
passed into the hands of the creditor class,
the sheriff doing the business. The gold
bugs in this county call the farmers repu-
diationists because they are now in a law-
ful way trying to preyent the confiscation
of their property by the rich gold standard
adherents in this country. One-half of the
values of our farms has already been con-
fiscated by the gold standard and now that
there is a prospect that the plan of the gold
conspirators is [likely to be threatened,
they cry anarchy and repudiation. Vote
for Bryan and prevent further confiscation
of your property.
A Word to Boys.
You are made to be kind boys, generous,
magnanimous. If there is a boy in school
who has a club foot, don’t let him know
you ever saw it. If there is a poor boy
with ragged clothes, don’t talk about rags
in his hearing. If there is a lame boy, as-
sign him some part in the game that
doesn’t require running. If there isa hun-
gry one give him part of your dinner. If
there is a dull one, help him get his lesson.
If there is a bright one, be not envious of
him; for if one boy is proud of them, there
are two great wrongs, and no more talent
than before. If a larger or stronger hoy
has injured you, and is sorry for. it, for-
give him. All the school will show by
their countenances how much better it is
than to have a great fuss.—Horace Mann.
Voluntary Amputation.
One of the Smithsonian experts has in-
terested himself recently in the study of
the science of voluntary amputation, says
the New York World. The only animal
that is know to possess it is the crab. He
is able to drop a leg or an arm any time
just by an effort of will and can grow a new
member in place of the lost one. He is
able to dispense with one or more of his
own limbs as quick as a wink. This sort
of voluntary amputation is.one of the
oddest things in nature. It is performed
when a leg is injured, and for the sake of
getting rid of it. -
Natural Deduction.
“Now,” said the earnest apostle, ‘‘if a
man took a silver dollar and melted it, he
would only have 53 cents’ worth of silver.
. What do you think of that ?’’
“Well,” said the man who had been
chewing a straw and looking puzzled,
‘‘snear’s I can make it out, he would he a
durn fool.”

Woman’s Dress.
The Venus of Milo had rather a large
waist, and if the statue could have been
endowed with life she would have been
rather proud of that waist. We judge so,
at least, from the fact that her face indi-
cates very considerable intelligence.
The Greek and Roman matrons did not
pinch themselves, and the wasp waist was
not their ideal of beauty. They believed
in health, first of all, and could not be
persuaded to interfere with the free action
of their vital organs. They did not accept
the modern theory that thy would be
more eagerly sought as wives as they
twisted themselves out of all natural shape.
It is the notion in fashionable circles
nowadays that nature exercised common |
sense in .making man, but. committed an
unpardonable blunder inh manufacturing
woman. A man is thought to be symmet-
rical if the outline of his body runs down
to his hips without any conspicuous curve,
but a woman makes herself symmetrical
by certain processes of contraction which
render it impossible to take any vigorous
exercise without snapping in two.
The ladies of the Sultan’s harem laughed
immoderately when Lady Montague de-
scribed the corset and explained what it
was for. The air had free access to the
lungs of these harem beauties, and they
wondered why western women should
stifle themselves. An hour of great hilar-
ity was spent in discussing the subject,
and Lady Montague could hardly persuade
her auditors that she was not talking after
the manner of Munchausen.
We have a great many reforms on the
market, but the reform which the Venus
of Milo would introduce were she here has
not yet been seriously considered. Until
it is, women must endure sick headaches
and the pangs of dyspepsia with such cour-
age as they can summon. The bicycle is
our only hope. If that fails to change
public opinion the case is hopeless.—New

THAT TIRED FEELING.—I8 a common
