A MILLIONAIRE OF NOTE. *>HN PLANKINTON, OF MILWAUKEE, AND HIS FORTUNE. Bt Begun Life a* an Ordinary Butcher. The Educational Monument That WIU i Ontmeroort< Iflm Hlft Magnificent BMidence. There are few men in the west whose nMnes are l>etter known to the masses t&an that of John Plankinton. Within the recollection of many of his neighbors he began life as an ordinary retail butcher, killing his own beef, cutting it up for ' s customers and very frequently dtelive: ,' ig ..ie meat himself. With his fami' ■ I.< ived in a few small rooms. A year ago lie retired from business the possessor of many millions of dollars. For many years he was the head of the great packing firm of Plankinton, Ar mour & Co., of New York, Chicago, Mil waukee and Kansas City, the largest con cern of its kind in the world, which does a business of $00,000,000 a year. Mr. Plankinton's name is a familiar one in 'bemimercial circles all over the globe. The news that thi3 commercial giant wr dangerously ill of incurable diseases jgjgry. has called anon ym' t'°n to liiscareer, U which has been in JL XA many respects a jtfictS f<mfcr kul.e one.

When lie retired from business he was desirous of spend ing the sunset of his life in quiet and ease. For years he had been a slave to his many lines of business, retiring early, rising early, and putting in a long, full day at his office desk. Consequently when he retired and the excitement and strain of his enormous business lessened, he broke down in health, as many a man had done under similar circumstances be fore him. The story of John Plankinton's life is not without elements of public interest. He was born amid humble surroundings in a rural district in Delaware on March 11, 1820. In 1832 he removed with his fa ther's family to Pittsburg, Pa., and from tliat city in 1844 he removed to Milwau kee, where he has continuously lived ever since. Heat once began business as a batcher and retailer of meat, a trade ho bad learned in Pittsburg. Before set tling in Milwaukee Mr. Plankinton had made arrangements to enter into part nership with a young butcher already located; but finding upon his arri val that his prospective partner had broken faith with him, he resolved, with characteristic independence and energy, to go into business on Ins own account. On a capital, all told, of $4.20 ho set up housekeeping, and purchased his first stock in trade, which consisted of one cow, for whicli he paid, after selling it, the sum of nine dollars, securing as a home a little frame building at a rental of eight dollars per month, and, renting a vacant lot, he erected his first build ing. a frame structure, that cost SIOB. In fourteen days after his arrival in the town lie was fully equipped for business, opening his little shop in September of the year he arrived. Being a hard work ing, economical, honest man, he soon became the leading butcher of the place, his sales for the first year amounting to nearly $12,000. His business constantly increasing, he was compelled to remove to roomier quarters. In 1850 he entered into partnership with Mr. Frederick Layton, and the firm, in addition to tin extensive retail trade, commenced packing pork for market on a scale limited only by the receipts of hogs at Milwaukee. The business of the firm continued to increase until 1861, when it was dissolved, Mr. Plankinton for the three succeeding years ecntinu- TRK RESIDF.NCK OF JOHN PLANKINTON AND HIS SON. ing the business alone. In 1864 he formed a partnership wjth Philip D. Armour, under the name of Plankinton & Armour, with an immense business in Milwaukee, a largo house at Kansas City and still another in New York city. The firm em braced also one of the largest packing establishments in the world, the house of 11. O. Armour & Co., of Chicago. A t few years ago Mr. Plankinton announced that ho had all the money lie wanted and sold out his interest in tho big pack ing firm to his partner, Phil Armour, retaining only his local branch. This he kept until last year, when he sold it to the Cudahys, who had long been in his employ and who are now rapidly coming to the front as big packers. In less than two score years Mr. Plankington's $4.20 has swelled to a fortune of $8,000,000 or $10,000,000, and tho little one horse hutclier became a power in tbe financial world. Wiiate ver Mr. Plankinton lacked in edu cation he more than made up in shrewd ness. In his day ho was regarded as one of the boldest and most sagacious opera tors in the speculative provision markets in the country. He is a tali, powerfully built man, with smooth shaven face and straight dark hair, which he invariably wears long. His home on Grand avenue is one of the finest in Milwaukee, and is a perfect museum of fine pictures and art bric-a-brac. He lives very quietly with his wife and daughter, his son oc cupying a magnificent mansion near by. He lias always been one of tbe most pub lic spirited men in the city. When an exposition was planned he gave $50,000 Mtrightto it. During the recent national laengerfest in Milwaukee he gave SI,OOO for the best festival composition, the prize going to a composer in Germany. Ho Owns no less than a dozen of the largest and finest business blocks in the city.' His great hobby is the splendid hotel which bears bis name. It covers a full block, and is one of the best equipped bostfllries in the country. He is also the bead of one of the solid hanks of the city that bears his name. A couple of years ago Mr. Plankinton was much chagrined over some local gossip to the effect that Milwaukeeans had to go from homo to secure first class workmen and artisans in many lines of business. He fumjd and fretted over thS matter until tie determined to prove to his fellow citizens that there were no finer workmen anywhere than right at home. With this idea in view, lie began a couple of years ago (he erection of one of the finest house* in the city. It was a year in course of erection, and cost about $150,000. It is built of undressed stone, and all of the work was done by the day by Milwaukee workmen. It is a beautiful bit of architecture, and the in terior is a revelation in wood carving and decoration. An illustration of this mansion is herewith presented. AN EDUCATIONAL MONUMENT. It was finally finished, and there is probably no more complete establish ment in America. The stables are the finest, the lawns arc laid out in flowers, and every detail about the place is com plete. Rut nobody seems to want it. It is entirely closed, and there it stands, a magnificent monument to this man's public spirit. "Let it stand," lie said to some one who joked liirn about the in vestment, "it is a meansof education. It will teach people that our workmen are as good as can be found anywhere. GEORGE-11. YENOWINE. GEN. SALAMANCA. Death of the Captain General of the Inland f Cuba. The late captain general of Cuba, Man uel de Salamanca y Negrete, was the hi n came of age en- uyytyhT tered the Span ish army. By GEN. SALAMANCA. reason of his birth he was a life senator, and while yet a young man achieved distinction ;-.s an orator. Ho served with Gen. Cordova in Italy with the army intended to defend the temporal power of the pope. When the Carlist war eame on he was made a brigadier general. During that struggle he distinguished himself and was rapidly advanced in rank. At one period, while governor of Malaga, he wrested the key of their position from the Carlist forces on the line of the Elbro, thus forcing their retreat. He was then created a field marshal. Later he relieved Tortosa by running a train at full speed over a railroad which had been abandoned for years. The expedition was so hazardous that he was obliged to place guards over the engineers to enforce his orders. After tho war Gen. Salamanca took his seat in the senate; but he was a natural soldier and gave his attention to the better equipment of the army. About a year ago he was appointed governor general of Cuba. He soou made himself very popular there, though ill health, principally on account of wounds re ceived in the Carlist war, kept him from paying much attention to society. He endeavored to place the island in a per fect state of defense, using modern methods, including new lines of railway, opening rivers before irot navigable, and strengthening the fortifications. Gen. Salamanca was a bachelor. HoiviirU University's New President. The new president of Howard univer sity, the Rev. Dr. J. E. Rankin, left the pastorate of the Valley church, in Orange, N.

In 1854 lie was graduated at Andover, and for two years after preached in a Presbyterian church at Potsdam, ft. Y. Then ho was settled at St. Albans, then at Lowell, Mass., and then at Boston. From 1869 to 1884 ho preached in Wash ington. The rest of his service has been at Orange. THAT ENGLISH MUMMY. A RESPECTABLE RIVAL OF THE EGYPTIAN ARTICLE. RaUl, but OtluTwlM Perfect—Ten Hun dred Year. Dead- A Fanning I'laee of Worship The Mummy In Hi* Case. Why They Jabbed It. It seems more than curious that his history has not been written. It is sim ply extraordinary that even his place of residence is known to so few among the many thousands who pass and repass it every day. It is true that for about one hundred and fifty years he was se cluded from the world, in fact, dead to it; but for forty years he has been upon exhibition. For forty years be lias been a subject of great interest to a compara tively small circle, and during that pe riod he has never shown signs of temper even under circumstances that might bo warranted to rufße the composure of a "bearded lady" at a circus. In various parts of the United Kingdom the mere fact of having been born a century ago is considered sufficient to account for any quantity of notoriety. Yet in this article the intention is to tell something about a person who was born, probably, two centuries ago, and who. it can be easily proved, ha? uot in forty years moved a muscle. Some days ago a discussion took place in the pulilic prints on the subject of mummies. In a discussion of the kind it could hardly be expected that the Egyptian brand would be overlooked, but if reference had been ma le only to the Egyptian article little would remain to be said, for Rameses 11, as a mummy, has really received quite as much promi nence as he deserves. There is a mummy that can hold its own against all comers on exhibition in a very modest way in the church of St. James, Oarlickhithe, or Qarlickhy ve, or Garlickhythe, for the name is spelt in three ways. It was so named, according to an old chronicle: "For that of old time, on the River Thames, near to the church, garlick was usually sold." The thorough fare that bounds the church building on the west is still known aa Garlick Hill Not long ago an old house that stood near the church was demolished. In digging a cellar for a modern structure on the old site several piles were found. These piles were of the peculiar greenish hue that wood which has been a long time in salt or brackish water always obtains. The ground in the vicinity of the church is of chalk format ion. So many parishioners were buried in the little church yard that it was decided, about forty years ago, to cover the dim inutive cemetery with a heavy coating of concrete. Before this was done a large number of bodies were disturbed. Those engaged in the work were sur prised to find that, while the coffins had been reduced almost to dust, the bodies inclosed in lead lining were in a state of almost perfect preservation. With one exception the bodies were reinterred. Th > exception had suffered somewhat froui exposure to the atmos phere and perhaps from careless han dling, but it is today wonderfully well preserved. The identity of this English mummy could not be discovered, for the coffin in which it had been incased had crumbled away, and had not been fur nished, apparently, with a plate. The soil, it is supposed, had dried up the ani mal tissue by absorbing every particle of water, and thus prevented putrefaction. At any rate, the mummy that can he seen at St. James (Garlickhithe) church shows no signs of decay today, though it has been out of the ground forty years, and hail been in mayhap 150 years or more. Just within the entrance to the church, on the south or Thames street side, is a plain wooden case. It is about 6 feet in height, 2 feet in breadth and 18 inches in depth. "You want to see the mummy, I sup pose?" said the sexton, Robert Sharp, when 1 presented myself at the church yesterday. Without more ado he opened the wooden ease. Inside the wooden door was a glass front that no key would open. Inside the glass, gazing pensively through eyeless sockets at a flagstone that was a little darker than its fellows, was the English mummy. The skin would have been white but for a pale yellow tinge. The skin was everywhere smooth and intact. The figure was that of a young man who must have stood six feet in height and been of fine proportions. The shoulders were broad, the arms long and powerful looking. Every finger and toe was per fect. Both hands and feet must have been small. That the figure was that of a young man seems certain from its gen eral appearance, but more particularly from ihe small size and excellently pre served condition of the teeth. There had been hair upon the head when the body was exhumed, but atmospheric intluences had destroyed every vestige of it. Un less the visitor looks closely at the head an impression will be carried away that there is still hair upon it. This impres sion will be due to a network of cobwebs which is yearly growing thicker. When the body was taken from the ground the teeth were perfectly white. They are gradually turning black. "The glass front was put iu the case," Sexton Sharp said, "to prevent visitors from jabbing tiie mummy with fingers, canes or umbrellas." "Why did they jab the mummy?" Sexton Sharp said lie supposed "they wanted to hear his insides lattle." He then explained that while handling thci mummy he and others had discovered; that the intestines had become shriveled, and would make a noise like a kettle drum when the mummy was shaken. Not a great many people visit the church to see the mummy, the sexton said. For people who did not live in the city the church was iu an out of the way place, he supposed. Ho had heard that the mummy was 200 years old, but could not certify to that of his personal knowledge, for he was only 43 years of age, and had "been around the church only about fortv years."—London Her" aid.

Subjugated, The word subjugated is of Latin origin —sub jugum. under the yoke. Although oftenest used in a figurative sense, it might have been applied in nil literal ness to a certain Maine boy, whose singu lar experiment with a calf, as described by The Lewiston Journal, may recall to our readers tlie recently published story of "Bub and Broad." Tliis farmer lad had always taken a special interest in oxen, and delighted to brandish the goad stick over his father's good natured pair. His great ambition was to own for himself a pair of steers Last summer he became the proud pos sessor of half a pair; in other words, his father gave him a young calf. Of course the steer could not he yoked up hv itself. What did the youthful Cincinnatus do. therefore, but place one end of the yoke round his own neck and fasten it there. The result may be imagined. The other half of the team started, and pretty soon a passing neighbor heard a shrill outcry: "Stop us, Mr. Smith, stop us! We're running away!" The neighbor came to the rescue, and was attempting to unyoke the boy, when lie called out: " T'other one, Mr. Smith, t'other onol I'll stand!"— Youth's Companion. An Aggravation. Clmi les R. Thome, the elder, was al ways a great traveler, and in their early days his three boys traveled with him. The family went ail over the world Once they were coming to America from China on a Pacific Mail steamer, and the ice on board ship practically gave out What could be saved was carefully put aside for the sick people aboard and the well passengers were compelled to drink the brackish, warm water on hand. Any one of them would have given §lO for a swig of cold water. One night when the cabin was full Charlie Thorne left his stateroom with a covered tin pail. Pret ty soon he walked back through the cabin. He had filled his pail with the warm water, put a tumbler inside and covered it up. The rattling of the tum bler suggested ice, and the parched tongues of the passengers hung out fur ther than ever at the sound. "Where did you get the ice?" asked a particularly miserable party. "It's for a sick friend of mine," he said, and he disappeared in his stateroom. During the evening he made four of these trips through the crowded cabin, and when he finally ouit the deception he had made at least twen ty men willing to commit murder for a glass of ice water. —Chicago Herald. What It Takes to Make a Hoy. Dave Evans has a 4-year-old boy who is an inveterate gum chewer. The boy's name is John, and he thinks it is a great hardship to put aside his gum when he goes to bed at night. He is inclined very much to rebel against such disci pline A few Sundays ago lie went to the cemetery with his parents. Passing a pasture along the track, little John saw a cow lying down and chewing her cud. Lie at once exhibited wild alarm and ex citedly exclaimed: "Oh, ma, look there. That cow has gone to bed chewing her gum, and you won't let little John do that." One evening John's elder brother and sister were discussing anatomy and looking over a physiological work. John was particularly interested in the pict ures of sections of the human being. After they had got through he took the book, and, pointing to the lungs, heart, liver, an arm, a leg and other dissevered members of the human frame, he in quired: "Does it take all these to make a boy?"— Chicago Herald. Itt'tnoTAl of Moles. I u a recent number of The Practitioner, Dr. Jamison writes on the use of sodium ethylate in removing hairy moles on the face. He operated in this way: The hairs were cut off as closely as possible with a very lino pair of scissors, and the mole was then painted over with sodium ethylate, a fine glass rod being used. When the mole had a varnished look the ethylate was gently rubbed in with the glass rod, to inako it penetrate more deeply into the hair follicles. The mole had quite a black look when the opera tion was over. A hard crust formed over it, which was nearly three weeks in becoming detached. When it came off the hairs were seen to be destroyed, and the surface of the mole had a smooth, somewhat cicatrical appearance, of a much lighter color than before; and this favorable condition continued until the mark was scarcely noticeable.—Herald of Health. Fatal Bravery. In the sanguinary wars of the Turks in Hungary, Count Ludovic Lodrom, on the eve of a battle, harangued his sol diers in the true martial strain. "That is all very well," said a German veteran, stepping out in front of the ranks. "That is all very well for you who are mounted on a swift horse, and are already think ing of saving yourself. But for us"— Whereupon Ludovic immediately dis mounted, drew liis sword and ham stringed the animal. Then he exclaimed: "Today, then, comrades, you shall see me as captain and soldier fighting on foot by your side and on the same terms." He was so severely wounded in the'fight that the Turks, who took liirn prisoner, put him to death and sent his head to Constantinople, belioving his recovery impossible and that they could never carry him. there alive.—All the Year Round.
