Il MYSTERY ABOUT ARTEMUS WARD.
Among the mysteries of his life, and
they are many, none was greater than
that involving the total disappearance
of his pro, erly at the time of his death.
Mr. Maxfield, his administrator, who
knew much of his affairs, says that
while h did not have as much money
as was generally supposed, yet being
in his room in Waterford, one day, just
before his departure for England, land
while he was arranging his business
affairs, $50 that" as Charles said, '.if
anything should happen, mother will
be all right" he sawa pile of bank notes
on the table amounting to about twelve
thousand dollars, which he thought was
all the money Charles had. He had a
valuable gold watch and chain. The
chain was of solid gold, a present from
the California miners, very heavy,
though plainly wrought, and worth
alone several hundred dollars. He had
also a diamond pin of considerable value,
and two diamond rings. Besides, his
last season in London was very success
full; for some six weeks he Melted three
hundred dollars a night. He was also
literally paid for his contributions to
PancA But of all this his mother never
received Il cent, and not SO much as a
single relic. Previous to his death he
had cleared the old homestead of debt,
and willed 10 his mother a small proper
ty at Yonkers, N. Y. What became of
the rest?-[ .ycribne,'s Magazine.
