THE BONANZA KING.

From biographical account of tn
"Great Bonanza Kings,-John w
Mackey, James G. Fair, and j. c
Flood-in the New Yo:k Graphic, i
appears that the two former are Irish
men born, and the latter a native
born of Irish parents. Maekay wal
born in Dublin in 1885, and was seven
teen years old when he arrived il
California. For twelve years he wa;
a common miner This practical ap-
premiership enabled him to prospect
mining claims, to locate mines, and to
make remunerative investments His
income is now estimated at 100000
a month.
James G. Fair came to this country
at twelve years of age, with his par
ents, who were in very humble circum-
sta 'ces. He went to California in
1849, In 1854 he became superin-
tendent of the 0phir mine, subsequent
ly made lucky investments in San
Francisco real estate, the gains of
which he invested in Consolidated
Virginia, Ophir and California mines.
BE is forty-seven years old, and his
monthly income is 100000.
James G. Flood was born in 1928,
and was just of age when he arrived
in California and struck out for the
mines. For FIVE years he worked
with the har, lest of the miners, under
going all the hardships and privations..
In 1854 he luckily formed partner
ship with O'Brien, and from that.ti
he began to rise. He is now one of
the leading owners of the Bank of
Ncrada His wealth cannot be fairly
estimated, but it is sufficient To- gisssa,I
him the control Of the san Z Issnciseoa
Stock Exchange, the fluctuations Of
which, in single day, range from
thirty to fifty per cent. The united
fortunes of the bonanza triUmvirate
cannot be less than $1OO,0oO,OOO, of
which Mackey alone has $40, 600.
The rise of these men from extreme
poverty to their present immense
wealth, is unparalleled in the history
Of acquired opulence. They are all
yet in middle life, are cautious, saga
cious, enterprising, and thoroughly
posted in everything relative to min
ing properties. Should they Ire
decade or more, they will be the rich
est men the worldeverseen To their
credit, be it said that they are as
democratic 10 their manners, as gener
Gus in their natures, and cordial in
their sympathies as when they first
shouldeFed a pick-axe. They are |
Americans in every sense of the word.

Brooke County Crops This season.

AAAA-aA1AN $500
As stated by US on previous occasion,
Brooke county has raised more grain the
present season than for many previous
wears. Additional facts have come to our
knowledge which fully demonstrate this
fact. Messrs. Robert and Hugh I.azear,
who own one OF the finest threShing ma
chimes ever made, have been engaged dur
ing 80 days in traversing the county
threshing for farmers. In that time these
gentlemen have threshed 1921 bushels OF
wheat, ll,O95 bushels Of oats, 35l bushels
OF rye, and 1906 bushels OF barley, making
in all 1883 bushels OF grain. With the
exception Of EOS bushels Of oats and 565
bushels OF wheat, which were threshed in
Ohio county, all was raised in Brooke
county. When 1t Is considered that this
machine Of the Messrs. Lazear Is only one
Of twenty engaged in the work, this Is q
pretty good showing for this county, and
anslrs well for its future prospects.
