THE RICHEST FIREMAN.
Millionaire Bronson Appointed ChieI
 of New York Town.

Tho waalthiest fireman in the United States. if not in the world, says the Philadelphia Inquirer. is MaEhew
 Bronson. who has just been elecleu chief of the LarchmOnt, \. l., hre oeo partment. MT Bronson is mlilloh- aire, q gentleman of leisure ana prominent society leader, and has no need of the small emoluments attach ing to his position. Net he is one or
 the hardest working fire fighters III the country He never misses a DilZe. and. dressed in the regulation nrehhl. garb. including boots, rubber coat an"
 great hat he works as hard as the humblest member of his stan. lie never spares himself and never sends his subordinates where he is unWllilhS
 to go himself. ,
 Fighting fire is fad with the mil lionaire chief. and many a time. in full evening dress. he has rushed from ball or function at the call on the hre alarm. He makes attendance at hres
 q hobby. and in order to thoroughly
 equip himself he has taken practical
 course of instruction in the work of
 the fire department.
 My education was practically con-
 menced and finished in France and
 Germany" said MT Bronson. and the
 early part of my life was spent in Eu- rope Upon my return to this country I became greatly interested in the fire
 service and through the influence Of
 Fire Commissioner Scannell. Chief Ed ward F. Croker and former Chief Hugh Bonner, 1 was admitted to the famous training school for tiremen connected with the New York fire department. The course in this school is thorough and rigorous. and 1 was told that the members of the school were often obliged to endure many hardShipS: but. nevertheless, l determined to take q complete course. Indeed. the fact that the rules were rigid and the work hard only tempted me the more.
 ''Soon after 1 completed my course 1 tor of the department. and while in this position I made it a point to re spond to every second and third alarm.
 have my bedroom connected with the fire alarm system, and l receive every alarm. as do the fire companies. In 1899 I attended more than POO fires. Indeed. I am so interested in the work that I feel that 1 have lost a full days enjoyment if I miss a fire which Oc- CUTS anywhere in the vicinity"
 In addition to his fondneSS for the fire department. MT Bronson is an en- ihusiastic yachtSman. He is q promi- l nent member of the Larchmont and New York Yacht clubs and chairman of tic yachting committee of the New | York Athletic club. He does not. how | ever, permit his yachting to interfere 1 with his duties in the fire department.

PULLMAN'S WIDOW.
English Lord Who Saw Her in Cairo
 Sends Proposal by Cable.

Chicago. March 27.-Mrs George NJ. Pullman. widow of the millionaire pal ace car builder. is the latest American woman sought in marriage by an Eng fish lord, and thereby hangs a most in teresting and unusual tale. More than q wear ago Mrs Pullman, who was liy ing in her great mansion in the deepest seclusion of mourning. decided to go abroad for the winter with her mother, Mrs Sanger.
 The Mediterranean trip was made hy the two women. and they finally disembarked at Cairo and fingered there for several months. It was there that an English gentleman of highest rank saw Mrs Pullman. He became most serious and devoted admirer, al though, owing to her deep mourning and her retirement, he never succeeded in heinz presented.
 Mrs Pullman knew nothing of her admirer until she received a cable mes sage several days ago. With this came an order for $25 to prepay an i'm mediate answer. The message was proposal.
 Now. for the third time this winter this interesting and much sought for woman firmly declares she will live and die the widow of George NJ. Phll- man. Twice this season she has ben reported to be engaged to artists whom she favored with her patronage-the Handsome Gerard Barry and the quiet, well dressed Franklin Knott.

Waterbury Democrat., 1901-03-27

around the endangered capital of the confederacy, Frances, bearing the highest testim onials from surgeons and hospital officials as to the conspicuous and devoted service she had rendered, went to the executive mansion nd se- cured admission to the presence of its great chief. MT. Davis courteously read her papers, and, looking into the earnest face of the fair girl sitting be- side him, gave graceful expression to his appreciation of her patriotism.
 Ask what you will, my child,'' he said, "and if l may consistently grant it your wishes shall be gratifed."
 "It is the parole of a private soldier," she said, ''and a safe-conduct through our lines. He is wounded, but has re- covered sufficiently to travel. He will not enter the service again, sir; his in- juries incapacitate him."
 And is that all?"
 "All!''-
 'May I ask why this extraordinary interest in a private soldier?" The president was smiling, his sad, kind face questioning her closer than his lips alone. She described the scene of her friends heroism, the quick interest of her nearer revealing the kindly heart within him.
 "Grand!' he said, briefly. 'I should He glad to see him-but no'-and he turned slightly towards the mass of papers-"1he crowd waits."
 The man that this soldier saved," she said, simply, twas a-kinsman of mine-one to whom I am greatly in- debted.''
 And is that all?" =
 ''That is al,'' she answered. But un- der the playful, mocking gaze of the president she felt her face grow crim- son. He smiled and bowed gravely from his chair when he noticed the tell-tale blush.
 That is all!" he said. One line upon sheet of official paper and the touch of handbell, and Frances found her self under the guidance of messen- ger on her way to the war department. At the door of the department she met Raymond Holbin in a new and glitter ing uniform. He was coming out, but, seeing her, stopped in surprise.
 ''You here!" he exclaimed
 "Why not?" She gave him but glance, a sarcastic smile playing about her lips.
 ''It is no place for women; you should be at home.''
 "It is no place for men; you should not be at home, Capt. Holbin." An angry reply arose to his lips, but he checked it.. .S
 "You know why I am not" he said; "I have been unfairly treated; but say the word, and I will go even as a private soldier-if you will prom ise--"
 'It is immaterial to me whether you go or stay" she said, and passed in. Holbin waited a moment and fol- lowed her, keeping out of her sight.
 What was it the young woman wanted" he asked of a clerk ac- quaintance, with careless indifference, when she was gone.
 An order for the parole of a pris- oner and pass through the lines" As Raymond walked away in deep thought, messenger pointed him out to hotel porter, and me latter hand ed him sealed envelope. Within this was g card bearing the name Lou ise."
