WHERE IS THE FORTUNE !?
Those Interested Are Denied
Access to Him.
THE STORY OF HIS GUARDIAN.

There is about to be brought before the
public through the courts of this city a
case never before paralleled in the matter
of interesting facts aud strange romance
The curtain rose on the opening scene in
this drama in real life about year ago.
The last act is yet to be played.
Yesterday there came before Judge Cot
fey certain Mrs. Schrivner, who resides
at the corner of Twenty-fourth and Va
lencia streets.
She is about to commence action for the
recovery of $500 for services rendered to
the late Mrs. DR.. Hoffman. who at one
time. some four years ago. Kept found
ling asylum on Folsom street. near Six
teenth.
The claim is for services rendered Mrs.
Hoffman prior to the time of her death,
about three and a half years ago.
Mrs. Hoffman died a wealthy woman.
She bequeathed all of her pro perty to her

adopted son. Eddie Wores. who to-day is a
penniless orphan, pushed about from pillar
to post, without friends or family.
Mrs. Hoffman's property was said to
have been worth at least $4,000.
In addition to this snug fortune Eddie
Wores is also said TO have been made heir
to an additional $4,000. left him by
George Wores, his adopted father-who
in reality was no other than his own
father. as Will be herein related.
The suit about to be brought by Mrs.
Schrivner discloses the fact,that of all this
doubly inherited wealth, not more than a
few paltry dollars are left. Against the
guardians of Eddie Wores Mrs. Schrivner's
claims will be made.
Police Sergeant William Price of this
city and a lawyer named Sylvester were
named as young Wores' guardians.
What has become OF all the boys money?
Bow did he come to be left N the care of
a family at $40 Howard street? These
are the questions which have only
been partially answered.
One day. fifteen years ago, there came to
the asylum presided over by Mrs. Dr. Hoff-
man young and beautiful Jewess. She
told long story of her cruel desertion BY
man whom she loved and trusted.
He was a sea captain" said she. HE
met me when l lived in the western part
of the town and appearing to be a manly.
gentlemanly fellow 1 loved, but alb, too
we'll"
Day in and day out this grief-strIcken
young woman called to see Mrs. Hoffman
and after several months had passed a
child was horn to her.
For several months the baby was kept at
the asylum at the expense of the young
mother, but finally the latter disappeared
from the city altogether and was never
seen or heard of again.
Mrs. Hoffman was akind-hearted woman
and taking pity on the deserted founding
adopted him.
In some uDaccountable manner Mrs DIR.
Hoffman became acquainted with George
Wores. BE was a dashing young man,
good-looking and presumably possessed of
goodly share of this worlds riches.
1t was a short courtship. Wores mar
ried the well-to-do widow and different
from most fatber-in-laws spent a great
part of his affection for his new wife with
his son-in-law.
Years rolled by and no change of great
importance came over the affairs of the
Wores family. Suddenly grim death
stalked in at the door of the Hoffman
Founding Asylum (the place still retained
its original name) and Mrs. Wores was laid
low This was about four years ago.
Before her death Mrs. Wores employed
the services of Mrs. Schrivner as nurse. as
mentioned. and just before her demise she
made the astounding discovery tnat the
boy Eddie was none other than the son of
her husband.
Lying on her deathbed she called her
spouse to task for the desertion of the
young Hebrew girl. Wores stood listening
to her speechless with amazement, for not
until that moment was he aware of that
fact himself.
Mrs. Wores was indignant and raised
her feeble voice to berate the man who
had 80 basely betrayed one of her sex.
Then the dying woman called in Mrs.
Schrivner and Sergeant Price, so the
