THEN He WILL HAVE HALF A MILLION.

New York Dec. There was a nat
those not familiar with the family af-
fairs when II was learned that Corne-
lius l.. Hardenbergh, of New Bruins
wick, had left his entire fortune OF
half million dollars to his son Alexan-
der McC., but with the proviso that
only the income shall be at his disposal
until he is forty years old. To those
better acquainted with the circum-
stances the will was only another in
stance of the business sense and sound
Judgment always displayed by the
father.
Though only twenty-five years old.
this is the third fortune which has fall
en- into the hands Of the lucky, If some
what prodigal Alexander. When eigh-
teen he became heir to the small estate
OF an aunt, amounting to $4,000 or
$50. 900. This money young HardenDergh
proceeded TO enjoy to the fullest ex-

little fortune had disappeared.
Alexander returned TO New Bruins

died and he found himself the possess

Straightway and for a few months
longer he proceeded to dazzle the good
people of New Brunswick by display
Of horseflesh and equipage such as that
ancient city had seldom seen. He fitted
out an elaborate coaching stable. and
shared it's joys with his numerous
friends. But the pleasures of New
Brunswick palled and Alexander
sought new fields to conquer. Out in
California his impetuousity stood him
well. He met a handsome and wealthy
young woman, whom he wooei ana
won.
So young Mr.. Hardenbergh had many
reasons to give thanks yesterday. But
then, perhaps, he still was unsdtisfied.
