WIZARD" GOULD.
Wall Street Operstions-His DOmesticit,
Habits and Character.

Habits ana Character.
OF Mr.. Gculds career since he be gan
to operate in Wall Street, columns might
be written, we're the story not pretty
well known to the public. The specula-
tions in Erie, the "Black Friday" aud
other episodes are familiar to most New
Workers and have been often retold.
Suffice it to say that from the time he
went into Wall Street Gould forged
straight ahead; there was no going back,
and but little standing still.
Line after line of railroad fell under
the control of this man, whom other
financers called the Wizard" Of Wall
Street, until thousands upon thousands
of miles of road were to all intents
and purposes his own. With a single
move in the stock market he could affect
financial matters not only in every city
in this country, but in London, Paris
and Vienna as we'll
He turned his attention to the tele-
graphic system of the country, and did
not rest until he had a monopoly of that,
and controlled the Atlantic cable as
we'll. Was this enoughi Not at all There
were elevated railroads in New York
city representing millions in money.
Here was more work to the hand of this
remarkable man, and in the end this
system, too, passed under his direction.
Talk of Aladdin's lamp. 1t was but
a dull, rusty affair placed alongside
the brilliant light of this mans genius.
There is nothing In fact or fiction since
Adam delved for a living fhst can rival
the plain, straightforward story of this
mans life. 1t is simply unparalleled
There has never been anything like it,
and good figurers say that there is neve r
likely to be again.

Mr. Gould married when he was a
young man, ana WAS always domestic in
his habits. He loved his family and hou e
more than most men do to-day. SocieU Y
he cared nothing for and paid little atten =
zion TO it, Though he paid for box in
the Metropolitan Opera House he was
seen there but rarely.
He attended tine theAters at times but
not with any regularity. He never, so
far as known, expressed any high appre-
citation of high arts, of music, the
drama, or literature, although he did
write a history OF Delaware county that
is regarded with favor by collectors of
rare and curious books.
The tinaucier has always had liking
for fine flowers He spent large amount
of money on beautiful flowers and rare
plants for his hotnouses and gardens at
Iarrytown, and some very fine specimens
of orchids have been developed there.
But in the main Mr.. Gould lived more

gsrdly Like most other business men,
he could not be his own almoner. As he
said, while his wife was alive she dis
triSuted his money for him and did it
with free hand, AS many know. Then
Mr.. Gould gave in addition to those so

Nor was Alr. Gould what some persons
call a religious man. But he was as re-
ligious AS most of his neighbors. For
years he kept pew In local Episcopal
Church.
Such are the main points in a char.
aeter the most remarkable, in some re-
spects, of his time, He was born some-

Gept as to win aud brains.
Alone and unaided he accumulated n
vast fortune, which passes intact to his
children.
His simple Habits.
No man was more simple in life or
habits
He often said that he could never dissi-
pate, even if he wanted TO- for he was so
constituted physically that he could not
use tobacco or take any intoxicating Ii
quors.
lie was moderate in all things that
he ate or drank.
MIR. Gould would never reply to
newspaper attack upon himself. Yet he
has no particular prejudice against the

Convention of Hancock County, Held IN

concerning the work Of the superintend-
ent: !. Daily prayer concerning all his
duties PRAYER left out-nothipg substan-
tia is gained. 2 Adaptation and adjust
ment of teachers to their classes. 3 Grad
alton Of scholars according To their age
and ability. Rev. G. Mayo said concern
ing the pastors place in Sunday School
work, that the pastor will WELD larger
influence in the Sunday School by not be-
but in having a general oversight; in 9th
er words, being the superintendent right
hand man. Deacon Sargent thought that
the parents could add greatly TO the inter
est of the Sunday School by the careful
study of the lesson with their children
during the week, Saturday night review
ing what has been learned Daring the
discussion Mr.. March brought out the idea
that the teacher by giving some fact per-
tanning TO the lesson or character In the
lesson to each pupil to look up during the
week and giving ii to the class in their o "
language the next Sunday would intensity
the interest Bro. Albert Eaton of Brook

classes for memorizing scripture texts.

thoughts. Afternoon session, 2P " Mr..
March spoke concerning the State Sunday
School Convention work; its object aud
aims, organization for evangelical on. unit
ing, ingsthering and upbuiiding, mutual
help to secure some added inspiration,
larger views and wiser methods The
question box and the subject Of libraries
brought out considerable practical discus
sion. Emphasis was laid upon the impor-
lance of a standard literature for our libra
ries. This session was closed after the

its value, also to its divinity. Convention

The County Fair.

That we are to have a county fair here
this fall appears to be now fully assured.
Ten Of our enterprisiug citizens have al
ready bought more land than was included
within the bounds of the old fair grounds
and they have bsrgained for more, viz. q
strip from the Daniel Beal field, a strip
from the DIR. Geo. Psrcher estate and the
lot of Geo. A. Parcher lying next south
of the old grounds, making altogether
about twenty-one acres, which will give
them ample grounds, more and better than
was ever had there before. The track will
be built according to the latest and best
methods and under the supervision of an
expert track builder. 1t Is the intention
of the owners to have as fine grounds and
accommodations as can be found at any
county fair in the State. The site of the
track is now all stsked out and levels are
being taken and some of the parties who
intend to bid on building the track are
looking it over every day. 1t is rumored
that the following gentlemen are to send
In bids: Lorenzo Foster, Alex. Moore
George Mckay. Harry S. Jones, Colin Nc
Chase. the expert, who was here the other
day, pronounced the soil as excellent for
track purposes. There is fine view of
Union River Bay. Mt. Desert Mountains
and large part of the city from the
grounds; the tp-top house on Green
Mountain can be seen. The following are
the ten owners as ii now stands: A. W.
Ellis, Henry f. Davis. Frank II. Gould.
/ Dr. W. NJ Haines, Howard f. Whtcomb,
I Or Geo. A. Phillips, Capt. II. j. JOY, II.

good. They did not at first intend TO erect
a grand stand until fall, but they had such
good report in regard to the situation and
building OF track that they are now Sc
riously considering having the grand
stand far enough along to seat people the
coming 4th of July. The probabilities are
that they will soon get out premium list
for the fair this next fall and no doubt
people from ell over the county will make
exhibits. Outside of the owners John B
Wiswell and James II. Hopkins have
helped a great deal. Mr. j. b. Wi-wel's
opinion in regard to site and track was
i fully sustained by the expert who was here
and as Mr.. Wiswell's opinion was given al
/ time Of sore need. when some others
were strongly talking against the place, he
should have great credit for the part he
| took Considerable fencing material W i'll
be required; about 260 To 275 rods Of
fence. The people generally have greatly

Some Ancient Documents of Historical
Interest.

We print this week on our first page an
important opinion drawn by Judge l.. A.
Emery, in an interesting decision under
ancient Indian treaties. By the kindness
OF Judge Emery we have had an oppor-
tluity to examine a number of ancient
documents which were put into the case
as evidence. and which have been care
fully preserved by the Indians in some
cases for more than a century.
Nearly all these documents are the orig
inals and not copies, and that fact gives
them added interest. The two letters we
publish in connection with Judge Emery :
opinion the one from the pen of Col. John
Allan and the other by Gov, James Sulli-
van, are in the handwriting of their
authors ard bear their signature.
Among the other interesting documents
are several other letters by Col Allan, a
copy of the indian treaty of 1894, copy
of the treaty Of peace of 1888 between the
United States ana Great Britain. also the
copy OF treaty headed State OF Massa-
chusetis Bay. dated August %, l7s0, and
signed In the name and behalf of the
council,
