RICHES OF VANDERBILT
Estate of Late Millionaire Esti-
mated at S60,000,OO0.

New York, April 19.-The appraised
valuation of the estate of Cornelius
Vanderbilt amounts to about $50 COG, 600.
Exclusive of the residuary estate.
which is held in trust for Alfred
Gwynne Vanderbilt, the valuation of
properties calculated from the amount
OF inheritance tax is only $S2. 600, 600.
ThiH inheritance tax amounts to 1920. =
~, which has been paid and receipted
Tor by. Comptroller Coler. This sum
represents what was the property of
Cornelius Vanderbilt in New York. but
does not include the transfer tax on
the S5,OOO.000 left to Cornelius Wander
pit by his father, William H. Wander
Dill, with power of appointment.
Ihe estate of Cornelius Vanderbilt
was supposed to have been worth at
least Sl25, GOO COO. At the time of Cor
nelius Vanderbilt's death last Septem-
Der, Chauncey M. Depew estimated
mat the entire estate was worth $40
OuOOOO, but it was explained that this
was a most conservative estimate and
made only TO assist those attending
to get some idea of the amount of the
resicuary estate coming to Alfred.
Terms of the Will.
According to the terms of the Van
derblt Will. in addition to the 81 ,250.-
goo received from the trust fund left
by his father. and S1,250OOO from the
trust fund left for the use of his
mother, Alfred received a direct inner
itance from his father of $4,000. 900.

herited. To Alfred was also bequeathed
all that remained after the distribution

portion Alfred gave to Cornelius So

The estimate of Senator DeDew put
the resjduary estate at s34, SOC. 000 In

amount is much less, but no record of
the inheritance tax from this part of
the estate will be made until Alfred

supreme court of the United States is
pending testing the constitutionality of

tended that the power Of inheritance
is vested in the state. and that con-

Called Upon for Cash.

Daniel e. Sherman, postmaster at
Montrose, Colo, and his immediate pre-
decessor, James P. Kyle, will have to pay
back to the postoffice department 81. .147-
81, which they are accused of having
misappropriated. The alleged misap-
propriation is not characterized as a
criminal offense, but the men have been
notified that the money must be paid
back to the government
For third class postof1ces, such as is
Montrose, the government allows not
more than $4OO for rent. For Montrose,
$275 was allowed per annum to pay for q
room in which the postoffice was loca-
ted. In nearly all third class officesl
the posofflce occupies part Of a store
room and the other part is taken up by
h drug store, confectionery, stationery
or some other establishment. In Mont
rose stationery and cigar store occu-
pied that part OF the store room not oc-
cupied by the pos .office.
The proprietor Of the store paid the
entire annual rental for the room, and
was reimbursed by securing the trade of
the people, who came into the postoffice
for mail, and incidentally patronized the
store. Neither Pcstmasters Kyle nor
Sherman, according to the United States
post officials, notified the government
that they had no rent to pay, but accep-
ted the 1915 each year, putting it into
their pockets and incidentally also plac-
ing in their pockets the $50 per annum.
the amount the government allows
third class office for heat and light. In
the Montrose case the proprietor OF the
store paid the expenses OF fuel and light.
Almon P Frederick, United States
postoffice inspector, was detailed on the
case, and he has recommended to the
government that Sherman and Kyle be
proceeded against, and that the amount
of their shortage be collected
Tne investigation of Inspector Freder-
ick disclosed that Kyle has sequestrated
the rent and fuel appropriations from
July 1, 1894. and that Sherman's misap-
propriation dates from July l, 1897.
How much further back the transactions
go has not been determined. or the to-
tai, s1,147 .27, about 5000 is attributed to
Kyle and the balance to Sherman.
The postoffice at Montrose carries with
it salary Of 81 300 year. There is
small sum allowed for clerk hire. 1t is
said that neither of the postmasters had
a clerk, but this money, it is said.
the postmaster is entitled to. provided
he can do the work Sherman devoted
his entire time to the postoffice and in
town the size of Montrose he was ena-
bled to make an unusually good living.
He still holds the position. Kyle is in
the fruit commission business, and is
now in Grand junction buying fruit,
and he has been notified that he must
disgorge his share of the funds.

1.-THE GLAD HAND"

IIIL OIfAD IufNlNDs
Charles G.. Sumner Does a Unique
Bit of Writing on the Peach
Day Celebration.
Charles G. Sumner, In the San
Miguel Examiner, under the
nom de plume OF "Whinnifred
Whack," has done really the
best thing in the line OF funny
work, which he has done in that
paper. Under the title Of '"The
Glad Hand" appeares the fol-
lowing:
was down to Grand junction last
week.
Good time? Why. of course.
There was lots OF people, lots OF amuse-
ment; and lots Of peaches, from the free
stone fruit to the clingstone girl.
And they were ss fair as they make
Fair femininity always captures the
dizzy denizens OF the San Juan
1t is good to get away from home and
see pretty faces. Not that they are
scarce in these altitudinous heights-oh,
no!
Then there were the exhibits, the
sports. the parades, the circus. and the
best of all, the country people.
Even though Grand Junction occasi-
onally makes a good stagger at metropol-
itan airs, it is country town, neverthe-
less.
1t was really refreshing to see the big.
gaunt. raw -boned boys come to town
with their buxom sweethearts.
The girls reminded one Of nothing so
much as q complicated dream.
Though they had ploughed ground
they had sypcopated talk. that didn't
matter. They had a buoyancy of spirits
that they didn't get in town, and their
big. innocent eyes looked one square in
the face.
Their costumes were a moro vivid
dream, say nightmare OF anteoellum
days.
Bright colors prevailed and the skirts
were pulling nails behin and stretching
the limit in front, lite red ribbons, and
green ribbons and blue ribbons galore;
hats cut la grandma and bedecked
with profusion Of purple velvet, gigsn
tic roses and ancient dingbats, and shoes
that had rheumatism OF the sole.
But they were breezy for all that, and
parsded through the crowd, holding on
s.ll -
out of the same lemonade glass, and
casting eyes at the red faced spoon that
would make a sheep think OF shearing
time.
They enjoyed it. So did every body.
And the heat was sitting and the dust
was awful, and everyone thought he was
having good time.
1t takes sweltering and inconvenience
to make the average American think he
lie having good time.
But they never fail to get their
moneys worth any where on this old
earth.
And the San Juaners were there also,
and they would have had good time if
they. could have spent their money fast
enough.
They found cent beers, aud it was
awful dusty, and they all tried to look
pleasant, and they knew a signal when
they saw it.
Like good citizens, they all hooted for
the Senators.
Yes, the Senators were there, too.
Ask Grand junction and ask Aspen.
One old fellow, with the giddiness OF
youth in his veins, got 80 far as "Rurrah
for Hooligan!' Bring 'em in Buckeye"
and various other contortiops on the
names OF our crack ball players.
But the enthusiasm was in the right
place. il his vocabulary was twisted, and
tnat was the principal thing.
