Bill Huggins's Story.

w. l.. Higgins was in Topeka the
other day, and told a Capital reporter
a good story OF Lyon county man
who had died and gone to Heaven.
On account of his unusually good en-
trance credentials aud his behavior
after reaching the celestial country,
he was appointed leader of the choir,
which place he had filled creditably
for some time. But one day kind
of lonesome feeling came over him
and he wandered along by the Jasper
walls wishing that he could see what
was going on in Empora. AS he
came to the gate of the city he saw
st. Peter with his telescope focused
on a distant object which the melan-
choly chorister supposed to be the
earth. So he asked to borrow the
telescope, and Of course his request
was granted. He looked for long
time, and then asked st. Peter to look
as he directed. "Do you see little
green spot down there about twice as
long east and west as it is north and
south ?n he asked. OF course st.
Peter had noticed the spot, and he
answered afiirmatively. "Well, that's
Kansas. Now do you see a smaller
spot about twice as long north and
south as it Is east and west about the
center of the spot you have been
looking at? Well, that's Lyon
county, the best corn county in that
good old State" A homesick feeling
came and marked the already dis
consulate features of the Kansas man.
Now st. Peter was nothing if he was
not sympathetic, and when the man
suggested that he wished he could
have a few weeks leave of absence
the gate keeper said that as his
record was good he could go back to
Kansas for four weeks. And the
man started off through space. BY
this time a crowd had gathered, and
as st. Peter turned and saw the anX-
ious and expectant looks on the
faces of those who had assembled, he
said: mo, this thing is going to
have to stop right here. If l would
let every body who wanted to do so
go back to Kansas, we wouldn't have
enough people left here to sing the
morning anthem"

$4,000, 900 makes n fuss, and talks
about breaking the will, 1t is fact that
young Cornelius would have done so, if
Alfred, of the present generation, had
not divided with him to make his share
equal those of the younger children.
Yet he had by the will 81 100000, while
his grand uncle Cornelius had but one
sixth part of that sum.
William II. Vanderbilt, the richest
man in the world, had eight children,
and gave the younger ones and girls
more generous shares than his sisters
20 times rs much, in most cases-had re-
ceived. He then divided what was left
of his wealth between Cornelius and
William X, thus establishing them as
his successors; but this so split up his
fortune that neither of his children was
as big a figure in the financial world as
he had been.
Then Cornelius Vanderbilt, the third.
died the other day, and again the por-
ton of the fortune that descended to
him was divided between five children.
Commodore Vanderbilt inherited
nothing, and died worth $50, 100000.
William II, Vanderbilt inherited s75,.
100000, or more, and died worth more
than twice that sum.

Cornelius Vanderbilt inherited $780,
100000, and died worth not less than
S70,000,000 He was never so rich Il
man as his grandfather.
Alfred Vanderbilt, the head Of the
family in the fourth generation, inner.
its about $4,000, 0O0-less than either
his father or his grandfather BY the
time he is 30, when he gets control of
his full estate, there will probably be
so richer men in America than he.
If, in his turn, Alfred shall have n
large number of children; If he shall
live in his fathers palace, that cost S.
100000 to build and furnish, and no.
body knows how much to open: il he
spends money as lavishly as his father
did, and as very rich man is expected
to spend it, the Vanderbilts OF the fifth
generation will not be very rich.

popularity supposed. For, although Mr..
Depew's estimate of S7O,0O0,0O0 for he
entire estate is rather small, it is true
that it did not approach the absurd csti-
mates put upon it.
William II. Vanderbilt once said shat
he was the richest man in the world.
81 know" he explained, that the
duke of Westminster has a trifc larger
capital than !; but his property is near
ly all real estate in London, and pro-
duces a very low rate Of interest; my in
come is far greater than his. The
Rothschilds are very rich. MS family,
but no one Of them individually has as
much money as /. I'm the richest man
in the world
No other Vanderbilt has ever made
such boast or could have done so;
while with the passing Of three genera
lions, the individual importance of the
men Of the family has grown less and
less. Cornelius was less wealthy than
his father; Alfred will be less wealthy
than Cornelius. unless he lives to a much
greater age and develops a faculty for
strict economy. Meanwhile interest
rates are declining-they will almost
certainly be made by law five per cent
in all the eastern states very soon-and
the return upon invested money is less

Rockefellers and of j. Pierpont Morgan

Coincident with this is the formation

IullDP the OUTSIDE
of the late quarters of the defaultinp
Aellio: "Banca Italiana; Bustata," ii
ran. The owner of the place had run
away with about $4,000 belonging to
depositors.
Within ten years 81 so-called banks
have collapsed in New York, all Of
which were patronized exclusively by
Italians. The total losses of these un,
fortunate Italians-at present the poor,
est nationality in New Yorl-was more
than 81 100000 In the Bergamini, Bar.
sotti and Aellio failures alone half n
million were lost.
Anybody who can pay the rent Of a
store and put up sign reading "Banca
Italiana," and can spare about a hun
dred dollars in gold In the window, 10
shine into the eyes of possible deposit
tors, can transact a private banking
business in the Italian quarter. All
through the summer, when the poor
toiling men of the south are digging
away in trenches and ce1Ters, doing the
hardest work of the growing town, the
deposits in the italian banks are grow
ing. When fall comes, and Beppo or
Antonio plans to visit his old home, he
goes to get his money; sometimes he
gets 1t, and sometimes the banker"
having anticipated a run upon his place,
has thoughtfully shut up shop and
gone to have some fun on his own &C.
count.
This is why the Italians, as their chill.
dren learn to read English and learn
the ways of the country, are beginning
to put millions into the savings banks,
They are very thrifty; they will get
along. They are beginning TO buy
farms. Those who know them only as
railroad laborers would be surprised
to see some of the farms OF the Con.
necticut Italian colony. They can teach
Americans a trick or two about farm
ing in their own country.
