How Gen. Wool Made His
Fortune,

The evening before the veteran
General was stricken down with the
illness thar closed his evepful career,
he made most interesting $; at tement h.
the editor OF the Troy Wing. which
conveys practical lesson, aud shows
how easy it is TO become rich after
obtaining the first u, lar. il one is pru-
dent and economical. IL never made
but $4,000 in my life !" said the
General cmphatically, "but 1 always
kept that al good interest |" On our
expressing surprise, he went on to expl,in
Ii seems that at the close of the war
of 1912, the General found himself
terribly wounded, but about even with
the world, in pecunisry point of
view. Shortly aiterward the Govern
ment sent him to the far South and
West, on special mission connected
with military affairs, and for five years
he Travelled over mountains. and through
the almost trackless wilderness, aud
accomplished his difficult mission, n
he always did, to the entire satistac-
tion of the Government, lie had not
drawn dollar from the Treasury,
except for actual expenses, and at the
end Of the five years the Government
owed him $4,000, which was then
paid. Here was the nucleus of his
large fortune. General Wool was then
about thirty-fve years Of gge. lie
died at about the age oe eigHty-eight
Now, lot the reader take this $40, 600
which, at compound interest, will
nearly double every ten years, and in
the fifty years interve ming between
the time Of i,s receipt aud the Gener'
ais death, he will 6nd that it viii
amount to more than tho Generals es'
tate, to wit: 100000.

who Discovered America 7

This question has been raised in San
Fraocisco by the publication OF II pa
per on the subject by Mr., J. Hanlay,
the Chinese interpreter OF that city
Mr.. jlanlay states that the Chinese
discovered the American contoueut l..
4OJ years ago. About five hundred
years ago Buddhist priests repaired
here. and carried back the news that
they had found Buddhist idols aud re-
ligious writings in this country. lie
says the Chinese called the land Fos-
any, after tree ike the bamboo, from
which the natives made cloth aud pa
per, and the fruit OF which they ate,
Mr.. alanlay compares this with the
statement of tho Conquistaiores, that
the Aztecs from the pulp of u tree made
paper. and used the roots aud fer
mented spirits for food. He relies, too,
on q correspondence between the au-
thorities Us to tho absence among the
natives of other metal tools than oil
copper, and OF the little value they
placed on gold and silver. MIR. Ham
lay aihrms there is resemblance b..
tween the religion OF the Az,ecs and
Buddhism as well as between thci:
manners and customs. lie asserts
there is a similarity fieature between
the Chinese and the tribes Of Middle
and South America, He goes further
aud gives list of words in the Chi
nese and American languages, which
exhibit similarity. Mr.. Hanlay's ev
licences, however. are not accepted a
conclusive by the critics.
