from the shy young schootcacher mar
ried to Richard Croker by DR., Edward
McGlynn years ago. with John Kelly as
best man at the wedding.
Mrs. Croker's fondness for domestic
life means fondness for her growing
family. The truth of this may be gaug
ed from the fact that she has six living
children. Three of the children born to
her are dead. OF the surviving ones,
two are girls and four are boys. The
children resemble one another. and the
education of them all is attended to
with great care.

to be really young lady. The other
children are. of course. quite young.
one of the youths is becoming an ex-
pert horseback rider. and is a familiar
figure at n riding academy near Gem
trail park.
The Croker children are not familiar
figures. however, to very many. They
do not make visits frequently either
except at the house of DR.. Jenkins to
see their aunt and their grandmother
Mrs. Croker has been quoted as saying
that she would like to make one son n
clergyman. but it seems that she now
prefers to have each of the boys given
good education and then to let him
choose such career as he prefers.
The girls study French, music and
drawing, and the boys are going through
college. Croker, being a self made man
in every respect. his sons are to be
school made. Richard. Jr., is quite n
Latin scholar, and his brother has
achieved proficiency in mathematics.
All the boys lead such lives as the sons
of millionaires ordinarily lead.

his life that seemed descriptive of his
character MS It has developed was that
he said little himself and would not
permit others to say much to him that
he did not ike"
While still young he entered politics
and was elected an alderman Then he
became a coroner and served two terms.
Afterwnrd he was city chamberlain.
From the time he became II voter TIL
he retired from politics before the cam
paign OF 1891 he was one Of the most
active workers in the Tammany Hall
organization, rising gradually in prom
inence until in lsss-less than ten years
ago--he was one Of the four men who
were most conspicuous among the 80
district leaders OF Tammany. And not
until after that was he recognized as
the lender, for there was no leader for
some years after John Kelly died.
In all this detail there is little to in
dicate the character OF the man. but
some few salient incidents will serve to
Illustrate the traits that have made him
what he Is.
In 1874 n man named MoKenna was
shot and killed in an election brawl.
Richard Croker was In the crowd and
was arrested and tried for the murder
The prosecution offered no proof Of
guilt, and there We're mistrlal and

testimony.
Mr.. Croker's own story of this rather
celebrated episode in his career was told
recently to William T. Stead the Lon
don editor, as follows.

II looks now like we will not get
any more base ball games this season.
Terra Alta refuses to come over here to
play for Tear we will beat them, and
wants IA to come there. As we were
there last, 1t is their turn 10 come here
next. Morgantown has n big foot ball
game for Saturday aud can't play base
ball on that account
