capitalists? Don't 1t take lots Of money
to operate in them? You could do
things when you were young which
cannot be done now"
THAT is true to some extent" re-
piled the senator. But there are
plenty Of places where small amounts
can be invested and a good, sharp fell
low can make his pile almost as well
now as in the past. The chances of
fortune making are always good for
the man who has the right eye to see
them. I am now eighty, but 1 feel that
If I were to go back into business
could make money as easily and as
rapidly as ever
DO you think your success has been
due to any fixed principles or did God
make you a money maker?"
Il don't know about that" said the
ex-senator with a laugh. II think God
has a good deal to do with success in
this life by putting the right kind Of
a mind in the man who succeeds. AS
to principles, I have always been tenn
perate and have always looked ahead
and trusted myself"
NOT AFRAID OF ANARCHISTS.
But don't you think, senator, we
have too many rich men in the United
States? 1t not all the capital going
into the hands of a few? If this con-
tinues it may imperil the republic
Il think not" said the old senator.
"YOu see, there is no law Of entail in
this country. You can leave your
property to your grandchildren and see
that they have nothing but the income
derived from 1t, but you cannot keep
1t In the family and carry 1t past them
TO unborn children. 1t is bound to be
scattered very soon after you die.
This seems to be the natural law of
the rise and decline Of fortunes. The

also described how, when he went from
New York to Wisconsin, his sole capital
was Just about $4,000.
MILLIONS IN LUMBER.
I asked Senator Sawyer how he came
TO make so much money from such
start. He replied:
1.-The most of my money was made in
buying and selling lumber. While
Nved in New York state ! could see
that lumber was worth a great deal
The forests there had been rapidly cut
and the prices Of timber had risen.
When 1 came to Wisconsin 1t was
new state. 1t had vast tracts Of pine
lands and I believed the day would
come when these lands would be very
valuable 1 invested what I had in
pine, and bought more as I could.
Later on I borrowed a great deal of
money and bought pine. I made a
humber Of good deals, turned my
money over rapidly and bought more
and more. One time 1 got hold of a
tract for $4,000 1 had a partner with
me in that purchase, and we each made
more than 100000 out of the deal. At
another time I bought for $1,000 some
pine lands which I afterward sold for
&64, 900. 1 made other investments which
paid me 100000 and upward apiece,
and in this way fortune was gradual
" accumulated. After a time I became
interested in railroads, and made some
money In them, especially in the pine

off. We would not have our children
undergo the hardships which we ex-
perienced, and they naturally do not
want them. Now, I have given my two
daughters the best half of a million
dollars, about $500, 900 apiece, and I
wish them to have all that I can give
them.
If there children run through the
money leave 1 can't help it If they do
so they must go back to work as l did
Why''-here the old senator grew very
emphatic-'if they do it will be no diff
erent than what has been going on
since the beginning Of the world.
There have always been great fortunes
and the men who have inherited them
have lost them. Every one knows OF
Job, but who knows how Jobs fortune

will elapse before every byWay and
passage in the immense structure be-
comes familiar. Even then he may at
times require the assistance of a guide.
But it will take him a longer time to
master the rules Of the house. Pa
tiently has he listened to debate on the
Dingley bill, and ardently has he con-
ned the speeches in an effort to CLEAN
new ideas. He has failed because there
are no new ideas to CLEAN. The legis-
lative husbandmen have been thresh-
ing straw that has been threshed since
the foundation of the government. AS
yet he is not conyersant with commit
tee work. The committees have not
been named, and the assignments have
not been allotted. When made, he
will find that committee work is fully
as intricate as the work Of the house.
Quorums are counted with much more
facility and motions to reconsider and
table are not final.
1t has been said that there are 143
new members in the present house.
This is not correct. The number Of
members who have never before served
in congress is exactly 131 The fedg
ings are picturesque lot. Some of
the finest American faces come from
the West and Southwest. There are
countenances from the commercial dis
tricts Of the East that recall the banks
or the Rio Grande, the SandS or the
Platte and the mining camps of the
Occur d'Alene. Per contra, the Popu-
lists are not wild-eyed nor anarchist
In appearance. Many of them look
like railroad magnates and Eastern
bankers. They appear like men of
earnest convictions, and not like poll
Iicians.
OF course, a dozen or more quaint
characters have sifted themselves into
the new congress. One appeared in the
restaurant the other day and asked for
q plug of tobacco. He got it and
cody laid cent upon the showcase.
The. clerk looked at the cent and then
at the man. who wore big diamond,

new members fancy that they must OBJ
tain leave of absence when they remain
away from the capitol. This was the
case with the writer ten years ago.
Gen. John I'll. Ketchum, then, as now
a member Of the house. heard the re-
quest for leave read from the desk.
Approaching the new congressman and
pinning his arm around his neck he
said: Don't do that; there is no neces-
sity for it. When you want to go home,
go, and say nothing. You won't be
missed"
The same feeling exists today. An
ex-member Of the state legislature as
tonished me the other day by saying
that he did not like to leave the house,
for fear the speaker might notice his
absence.
Gradually and carefullyq the neyv
member is falling into the ways of the
OLD member. His eyes is lighted with
anticipation when he looks at the por-
traits Of the speakers in the lobby and
great thoughts enter his head. Many
are already employed at their desks
in writing letters during the sessions
of the house. Others read newspapers
and stretch and yawn when loEg- wind
ed speeches are inflicted upon them.
A few gaze at the pretty faces in the
galleries. and assume positions more
statesmanlike than statuesque At
times one ventures to address the
speaker, but he is rarely recognized
unless he has made an arrangement
for recognition through some expert

to pass a bill. One new member re-
Gently astonished the speaker by de-
manding to have his vote recorded
when Gen Henderson moved the pre-
vious question on the adoption Of the
old rules. Under parliamentary law
the speaker could not refuse to re-
cord his vote, although he failed to
answer to his name when 1t was called.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April S.-The

status In the house. He Is not yet en-
tirely aware Of his status outside. He
still pays Ave cents fare on the cable

he can get six tickets for a quarter.
He has finally ascertained that 1t costs
money to live at a hotel, and he has
sought the comforts of a family board

and treasury buildings. If from q

that his predecessor has drawn his

about it. The ways seemed devious,
and he was unable to understand why
some members assumed the right to
talk whenever they pleased, while
others were unable to secure the floor
at any time. The scenes that followed
the reading of the journal awakened
his interest When fifty members
thronged the arena in front Of the
speakers desk, waving printed bills
and resolutions, and shouting "Mr.
Speaker" the din to him was deafen-
ing. On no theory could he explain
recognitions, and it was not until some
stentorian voice demanded "the reg
ular order" that the puzzle was solved.
Dazed by the hot disputes over APP
preparation bills, he found the cloak
room a quiet retreat. There the story
tellers abounded. Seated by the coy
CRATE, he drew inspiration from the
North and the South, the East and the
West. Introductions were numerous,
and he formed acquaintance that
may prove of value In the present con-
gress. Statesmen Of national reputa-

and made remarks that convinced him
that they were for more human than

How about the South?" said I.
II think the chances for making
money in lumber in the South are
equally good. In Georgia and the gulf
states there are large tracts Of pine and
cypress. You can get them for almost
nothing now in comparison with what
they will be forth in the future. We
consume an enormous amount of lum-

TRENTON, Oct 20. 1S97.-Hugo Hahne-
man, of Hoboken, was acquitted of the
charge Of receiving Struggled goods, in
the United States District Court, yester-
day. No evidence was submitted in de-
fenSe.
Senator DAILY, in summing up, said that
it was probably the first time it was ever
asked to pass on the guilt or innocence
of a man with no evidence of guilt SUBJ
mitted on the part of the Government.
Nothing was shown other Than suspicion
of guilt.
He had been waiting for several wit
nesses to tell that the phenacetine was
smuggled into the country, and on what
steamer, but lone had done it. All they
had proven was that it was in his pos
session.
The trial Of Richard Neubaner. a Ger
man, VIC came over on the Bismarck, on
Aug. IS, was then begun in the afternoon.
He IS charged with smuggling in seven
teen pieces Of jewelry, worth $500. 1t was
seized at Hoboken. He is defended by
Well Brothers, Of New York. Mr.. Done
hue, the inspector who took the jewelry
from him, was examined. The trial will
he continued this morning.
