!. How Mon Grow Rich.

From the ElmirA IN. ~ Telegraph
Twenty or thirty years ago-say thirty
the richest man in the United States
was not worth more than Marcus Cras-
sus, the richest man in Rome in the age
of Pompey and Julius Cpsar-$1O o, OOO,-
600 to $l5, 900, 900. When old Stephen
Girard of Philadelphia died, it was said
he was worth SIS, 600, 900, but in fact au
was not worth $40, 900. He wus
then the wealthiest man in the coubtry.
When old Cornelius Vanderbilt died his
estate was estimated at SAC, 900; a
few years thereafter the Stewart estate
was reckoned at $50, 900, 900. These
were the richest men in the country ten
or dozen years ago, and there were
hardly score of others worth as much
1910, 00O, 900 each. What change has
taken place since the death of Wander
bilt The wealth of his son, William
H., is now reckoned above 500, 600, 600,
Jay Gonld, q bankrupt ten years back,
is supposed to be worth $50, O00, 900;
Stanford Croker, and the heirs of the
estate of Mark Hopkins range from
$50, 900, 900 to $25, 600, 600 each. There
died man in New York the other day,
Moses Taylor, whose property is various
~ stated at $50, OOO, 900 10 $50, OOO, 900,
and he hardly attracted any attention as
man of wealth, so numerous have be-
come those of equal rank in. fortune.
Twelve years ago the richest man
in San Francisco was thought to
be VIM. G. Ralston, and the aggregate of
his possessions did not exceed $4,000
600. At that time two men kept hum
BILE saloon on Washington Street, be-
tween Montgomery and Sansome, whose
whole possessions could not have been
cashed for $25, 900. They became part
ners of two other men In mines GU the
Comstock lode. OF the last two neither
was rich. The aggregate wealth of the
four did not reach $4,000 Now one of
the first two is worth $50, 600, 900, aud
one of the last two supposed to be worth
$50, 900, 900. A third is the richest man
in the United States senate, and the
fourth died, leaving an estate of SO, 0OO,.
600 or more. It is stated on good
authority that two brothers named
Armour made 100000 in one year in
a /" corner in pork. James r. Keene
in 1872 was poor man in San Francisco
80 poor that at times 800 piece
looked as big to him as full moon. He
is now rated Sic, DOC, 900 nabob in New
York; all of it the result of eight or nine
years. successful speculation. It took
Stephen Girard lifetime to make half
as much, and yet he was accounted the
sharpest and luekiest merchant of his
time. About the year 1869 there went to
California by way of the Central and
Union Pacific Railways party of
visitors from Chicago. Among them
was George Pullman, the inventor OF the
palace sleeping car. He was then but an
experimenter, an adventurer on the wave
OF fortune. He was understood to be
worth good deal less than nothing.
His wealth is now established at $15,-
600, 900 to $40, 600, 900, and increasing
at rate that will make it $50. 600, 900 II
he lives ten years more.

It's former position, but anticipates doing

who hasthe honor Of using the three desks

Dead Senator's Desks,


Daniel Webster resigned his seat in the
United States senate July 20, 1850. His
desk is still in the senate chamber; but
which one, where it sets and who is the
lucky senator, that has it are secrets to
all the world, except Capt. Bassett, whom,
Mr.. Webster brought here when a mere
boy, and put him in position as a page,
eighteen years before he resigned. Capt.
Bassett has held place iu the senate
from that day until the present, being
acting assistant sergeant-at-arms now.
But to the story of the desk. As above
stated, the possessor Of it, or its num-
Der, is as profound secret to the sena-
tor who sits at it as it is to an Egyptian
mummy. Capt. Bassett's reason for
keeping all knowledge of the num-
bers Of MIR. Webster's, Mr.. Clay's, and
MI. CalhOun's seats q secret is that.
knowing and understanding the desiie of
the desire of the American citizen, both
male and female, for relics, he fears to
give the secret away less the desk would
be Clipped away by piecemeal by the
surious who throng the capital every
day. There has been no change in these
desks from the day they were brought IN
TO the capital until now, other than tie
usual coat Of varnish. Capt. Bassett has
a memorandum record of there numbers
and places, which he keeps carefully
under lock and key, and will, when he
comes to shuttle off this mortal coil, fur
nish to the proper person all the infor-
nation relative to the desks, in order
that their history may be preserved and
handed down to future generations as

Trout Trapping in Colorado.

Those pot hunters who take trout from
Colorado streams resort to one of two
agencies for that purpose: the trout trap
and giant powder. When the latter is
used, small stick of the explosive, with
lighted fuse, is thrown into the water.
It sinks and explodes stunning great
numbers of fine trout. The aggregate
weight of the fish that rise to the surface
after one explosion has been as great as
two hundred pounds. When fshermea
are detected in such unsportsmanlike
operation they are fined $50 and cost.
