Lotta's Immense Wealth Joe Murphy the
Richest Ac,er-N Notes About Others.
brooklyn Union.l
Little Lolita is declared to be the
richest woman on the stage. | heard
her fortune put day or two ago at
100000. That is, Of course, extray-
agant. She is, however, worth all of
$3.50, 900, and, | dare say, somewhere
near 100000. In her earlier years
on the stage Lolita experienced no end
of trouble keeping her money. Some
how or other it all went. But as time
wore on Lolita contracted business hab-
its, until she is now. as capable busi-
ness person as anybody. She has mo-
ney invested in about every way
stocks. bonds, real estate, and | know
not what. She is now thirty-eight
years old, believe, but she is full of
animation and always wonderfully
happy little body. She succeeded on
the stage because she could not help it.
1t is perfectly natural for her to cut the
capers that she does, for she cuts them
off the stage as well as on.
The richest man on the stage is
doubtless Joe Murphy. He is worth
cold 100000 if he is worth dollar.
lie was a poor Irish boy and started as
a variety singer and dancer. HIS one
ambition has been to make money
rather than fame as a distinguished
artist. lie has stuck to Irish dramas
and he has always played to big-paying
business, while other shows have Ian
guished and died on all sides. lie has
sung "0nly Handful of Earth from
My Dead Mothers Grave" until it
wrings tears from even him-tears of
agony. The song, however, touches
the hearts Of his audience every time
without fail. The women boo-hoo and
the men demand a repetition. Players
who are satisfied with modest posi-
tions in the profession like to go
with Murphy. lie expects them to
do all that their contracts call
for, but he treats them fairly and pays
them fairly. Nobody bogrudges Muir
ply his prosperity, for the reason that
he is known everywhere as a square
and upright man. The poorest person
in the profession aggregates in the total
nine tenths Of the whole. Lillian Rus
sell is, perhaps, as badly off as any Of
the conspicuous ones. She has received
a great deal of money, but never has
kept any Of it, and it is said she has
debts without end. Fanny Davenport,
| hear, has invested some money in one
Of the dramatic papers. She has accu-
mulated fortune, and very substan-
tial one, too. She is probably worth
$4,000 to 100000.

Cottlc's face. lie seemed to be search

past. Slowly, very slowly, the light
came TO him.
"Hypatis. he said, " tell me--did

whispered.

And their lips met.
The town of Noesis exists still. Its
inhabitants are yet seeking TO pene-
trate the arcana Of nature. LogarIthms,
ords, and abscissas are their joy by
day, and parallaxes. elliptics, and
spectrum analysis are their delights
by night They still cry out against
Greek and Latin. and point the
finger Of scorn at belles-lettres. They
live in the domain Of pure reason, sur
rounded by set of fixed laws reducible
to mathematical formula. Doubtless
they fancy themselves the happiest peo-
pie on earth, but some day they will
learn to know the truth, for Alfred and
Hypatia are ever with them, preaching
the gospel Of poetry and love.

looked at the bed wonderingly. Then
he gazed around the room. He did not
understand why be was in bed. He
tried to raise his head, but, much to his
astonishment, found that he was too
weak. His eyes fell upon the medicine
bottles on the tables beside him.
I" wonder what is in those bottles, {"
he thought.
BY an effort he reached one and con-
veyed it to his nose.
1t smells LIKE don't know what

How suburbans Beat Conductors

liIith-Otdisl
A very cute young man, who lives
in one of the suburbs and is engaged in
business on Fourth street, told Times
Star writer a confidential story that
should be more universally appreciated.
1t never costs me anything to come
|. to the city every morning. said the
cute young man.
How SO got pass? ?" asked the
reporter.
mo, sir; but | have an extraordi-
nary amount Of gall concealed about
my person, which is of considerable
more service than a pass. This is the
way manage. It's as simple as roll
ing off a log when you know how. |
get on the early morning train which
stops at our little village and reaches
the Grand Central Depot at I
o'clock. There are always at least
two sleeperS attached to the train,
and, as the engine slows up, | board
the rear platform Of a sleeper and walk
in like guest. Nobody says word !;
the porter is generally asleep, and this
is his time for nap, and | stroll
through the sleeping apartment and
take a seat in the smoking room. The
train moves on, and half an hour later
am at work, with as much money as
| had when | left home"
&" How do you get out home again in
the EVENING"" the newsman inquired.
Work another scheme, which is
just as simple and certain. | have q
local ticket which | always carry in my
pocket and never use. To be sure the
date on it is rather ancient, but the
gatekeeper never looks at that. It
passes muster every time, and your
humble servant gets aboard the
train, being always careful to
take a seat in the coach nearest
the end. The conductor begins
at the forward car to take up tick
cts and works his way toward the rear.
He never gets to my seat before the
train has reached my native hamlet,
and walk to the platform to admire
the scenery and quietly step off. See? ?"
Being as plain as pikestah, the re-
porter saw, and the cute young man
continued:
Well, am not the only suburban
resident who works that kind of a
racket. know great many Of them,
just in one town, who play the same
game. | tell you people don't under
stand the conductors well enough, or
they wouldn't pay out so much cash
for short travelling. 1t is not one
time in a hundred that a conductor
asks me for a ticket, even if he
passes by my seat. If the train
is a through one, and | get on to
come to Cincinnati, invariably
board her from the side opposite the
depot, so as not to be observed
getting on. | walk into first-class
car, sit down near an open window,
and seem very intently interested in
the landscape. When the conductor
enters the car | do not try to come any
of the sound-asleep schemes, but face
him confidently, stretch myself wea-
rily, and ask him if we are getting into
Cincinnati. He thinks I Am through
passenger; says, Yes, be there d.
rectly,' in a very pleasant manner, aud
passes on. / tell you its only the
sbarpers who try to dodge the cOnduc.
tors who are caught at it,"

.That is it exactly. My cooking Is,

assistance to cooking"
Hypatia's eyes sought the ground.
Cottle looked around quickly at her.
"Hypatia," he said, "you are a
woman Of ideas. Food prepared on
strict chemical principles would be tho
roughly nutritious and wholesome"
"Well," continued Hypatia, without
raising her eyes, ~ have the cooking,

"But a partnership between a man

wouldn't it?"
Not--not if it were-for life."
Hypatia's voice had sunk to whis-
per.
"Ah, yes, I see," answered Cottle.
unmoved, "you mean we might get
married."
YES" she answered softly.
"And them" he continued, "we
could try all our experiments on our
Selves"
yes" she answered, looking at him
with inexpressible admiration in her
lovely eyes.
ii think it is an excellent idea,
said he.
Then" she murmured, II sup
pose we are engaged"
" Yes, think we may deem that
point settled"
AMI they walked back to the rec
tangular old town Of Noesis in the
cleaning, at peace with themselves and
all the world. The whitewashed SEN
tinel elms. that kept their yigils
through the accurately measured years,
looked down upon them kindly and
shed few leaves in token oftheir SYM
pathy. And the gentle breeze, signing
around the town thermometer, whis-
pered words of hope and encourage
! ment.

OF H., FREDERICKTowN, AUG. 81.
1885.
At special meeting of the lodge
held on the above date the following
preamble and resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, the great Ruler of the uni
verse has in His infinite wisdom re-
moved from our midst our worthy and
esteemed brother, EDWARD SEITZ; and
Whereas, The intimate relations
held during long business life by him
with the members of this order makes
it fitting that we record our apprecia-
ton of him; therefore be it
Resolved, That the wisdom and abili-
ty which he has exercised in our lodge
as Guide, his regular attendance and
the interest manifested In the welfare
of the lodge will be held in grateful re-
membrance.
Resolved, That the sudden removal
of our worthy brother from our lodge
leaves vacancy and shadow that will
be deeply realized by all members of
this lodge and its friends and will prove
a grievous loss to this town and the
public.
Resolved, That with deep sympathy
with the afflicted relatives and friends
of the deceased we express an earnest
hope that ever SO great bereavement
may be overruled for their highest
good.

Foraker.

There is probobly no law i'm the State
of Ohio by which J. b. Foraker. Re-
publican candidate for Governor, can
be compelled to desist from making
statements like this:
81 might, If it were necessary, cite unques-
toned statistics to show that for the purpose
of making Solid South in the interest Of the
Democratic party more men have been killed
out the seeding States than were killed and
| wounded at Gettysburg. But 1 have no de-
sire whatever to array such matters when IL
is not necessary for my purpose to do so."
According to Gen. Meade's official
report of Oct. /, 1868, the number of
killed and wounded on the Union side
at the battle of Gettysburg was 16, ,543.
In Gen. Lees report Of July 81, 1853,
the Confederate casualties are not
stated. They have never been exact
| ly ascertained. The generally accept
ed estimate Is % 600. Altogether. be-
tween 40. 600 and $4,000 men were kill
ed an6 wounded at Gettysburg.
| The clumsy Ohio politician who is
numbering along almost alone behind
John Sherman's bloody-shirt banner
adds in the same breath:
II have no disposition or desire whatever
dice or bitterness. 1t Is not, therefore, for
any such purpose that ailude to this mat
ter"
| Put these utterances away among the
curiosities Of mendacity; and. when
the time comes, put Foraker there too,

well liked in this community wher e
for several years he had made b is
home during all of which time he had
occupied responsible and trusted posi-
ton with the firm of Hohenthal Bros.
His kind ways won for him the esteem
of all with whom he was thrown in
contact, and his few weeks illness and
subsequent death called forth ex-
pressions of sorrow and regret whose
sincerity was most touching and beauti-
full. His funeral, which occurred on
Friday afternoon at 4 O'Clock, was large
ly attended, the remains being followed
20 their last resting place in the Catho-
lie cemetery by several hundred peo-
pie. The services at the grave were
under the direction Of Silver Lodge
No. 1909 X. of H., of which the de-
ceased was member, and were sim.
pie and very impressive. He leaves a
widow and one child, besides sisters
and brothers, all of whom have the
coincidence of the public of this place.
