A Clocks Secret.
From the Milwaukee Sentinel. !

from the milwaukee, sentinel
Scarcely month ago one of our enter
prising business men-On the road to com
potency through close application to bust
ness-was surprised to find himself a
millionaire. Several trivial circumstances
connected with legal test of the last will
and testament of his aged mother, led Al
bert B. Van Colt to visit New York with a
view of learning more in relation to family
connections. Close scrutiny of the records
there, with competent legal adviser. re-
quired both time and money, but the indOm-
liable will of Mr.. Van Colt Overruled these
considerations, and a careful investigation
disclosed much that was interesting and
valuable. But a revelation toward the
close of their labOrs astOnished both. They
found a cOdicil to the will of Anneke Jams,
by whose terms the Van Colt family is in
terested in the estate. Careful calculation
proved that the share of our friend will not
fall short of three million dollars.
The excitement among the heirs OfAnneke
Jams had fairly died away when an old
heirloom in the shape of a cottage clock
accidentally revealed a new phase in the
situation, and one of great Importance to
all interested in the estate. The old time
piece had not noted the waning hours for
years, but its ingeniOusly carved front had
made it an object of generation by those
who had acquired it through succession.
AC"dlu tho Close Ol ldst year IL was some
what damaged by an expressman engaged
an removing the furniture of the family in
whose charge it had been for the past ten
years. In the course of its repair the paper
upon which the title to the estate now
hinges was found between the woodwork.
in fair state of preservation. 1t reveals
the fact that the Van Colts were directly
related to the AnDeke Jams whose name has
become so familiar within a few years,
through claims upon the most valuable
property in New York city.

Cashmere Fleece.

The St. Louis Democrat of Wednesday
says:
Mr.. J. L. Thompson, commission merchant
of this city, exhibited on Change yesterday
a beautiful silky fleece from a Cashmere
goat, sent in as a sample of thousand
pounds or more, by f. A. Rogers, of Cooper
county, Missouri. Our wool. buyers, not
being in the Cashmere business were puz-
zled as to what they should offer for this
unusual clip, but several bids Of 81 to 81 10
per pound were ventured upon. AS a
good conditioned Cashmere goat will shear
from three TO three and a half pounds of
staple, the business Of producing it ought
to be remunerative, especially as the goats
are healthier and Jongerlived than sheep,
and will lose less Of their young by the ext
gencies of the weather
