NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. BURDEN OF RICHES
MANY MILLIONS MEAN A CON
SLANT NIGHTMARE.
Millionaire who Desponded Because He
Got His Money Back-Easier to
Become Wealthy Now.

1t is interesting-poss somewhat
dlsquieting-to note how great fortunes
swell like rolling snOwballs. The prin-
cipal Rockefeller fortune, being the
most conspicuous affords the most
striking Illustration. 1t did not exist in
1870. 1t was in its beginnings in 1872,
much less than a generation ago. as
generations must be counted in these
days of improved sanitation. 1t was
exclusively an oil fortune 10 years ago.
Ioday 1t is in gas, in coal in iron, IN
railways, in copper, in lead in electro
city, in street railways. in steamships,
in banks, in hotels, in apartment houses
in tenements i'm all kinds of mortgages
in fact in everything. And its income
OF more than $iO.OOOO00 a year has be-
come nightmare to its owner. Spend
it he could not If he would. Give It
away he would not, fortunately for the
spirit of manly independence. Let it be
idle he dare not, for 50 much idle capt
tai up-piling would disarrange the
worlds finances.
1t is said that he had an attack of de-
spondency few years ago, brought on
by the fact that a vast number of farm
ers to whom he had loaned millions. as
he hoped, as a safe investment for
years. suddenly paid him, and compell-
ed him to surrender a carload of mort
cages. He mad his money, but he did
not want 1t, because it brought him
another problem of investment.
The greater business ability he shows
and the more fortunate he is the more
stupendous his problem becomes. The
quickest way to grow rich in New York
has long been by showing rich men new
investments. The Rockefeller fortune
is one of hundreds, and ali are growing
and swelling by the operation of causes
over which the owners have very little
control. In the future it will be posi-

PRECINCT CLUBS MEET.
Fifth District Calls Clash With Thurs
ton Meeting.

The executive committee of the Fifth
District Convention have issued a cal
to the presidents and members of the
various precinct Republican Clubs of
the district for meetings to be held on
| Saturday evening at the usual places
of meeting for the purpose of acting
upon and considering the resolutions
adopted by the District Committee at
their meeting on Tuesday last. The
actions of the precinct clubs will rec
ommend part all or none Of the planks
as proposed to their several delega tions
in the Territorial convention. Other
business will be the recommendation of
candidates to the executive committee
also a candidate for the House and a
first and second choice for Republican
senator.
These meetings will interfere with
the mass meeting to be held in the Or
pheum when Senator Thurston will
speak. Secretary Avery stated this
morning that the committee could not
arrange any different date as it would
be impossible to hold it earlier on ac-
count of notice, and the committee
wished the work accomplished by Mon
day. Precinct club members generally
regret the clashing of the two dates
which is thought to have been purely
an error of forgetfulness.

CURIOUs CEILING DECORATLnN-

A Russian nobleman of immense
wealth has hit upon a curious method
or ceiling decoration. Every ceiling in
his mansion contains a fresco dealing
with an episode in the career of his
ancestors, and the whole forms what is
perhaps unique example of inner-roof
ornamentation. Nearly 100000 rubles
has been expended upon this extraor-
binary work.

Senator Chandler. Rice Menu.

hNhNt neu0s
 Senator Frye delights to take guests with him up to his camp on the Range ley lakes. Once upon time he had Senator Chandler with him. One after noon. when the cook wanted to go to town. Mir. Chandler offered to prepare the dinner. He wrote cut an elabo- rate menu, commencing with chicken soup. Having a faint idea that rice was used in making chicken soup. but having no idea at all of the amount that was necessary, Mir. Chandler emp tied the entire tin can of rice into the soup. In little while he was forced to bale out the soup kettle and fill two stewpans with boiled rice. Presently the kettle was spilling over again, and several plates were filled. To make a long story short, Senator Chandler was busy all afternoon bailing rice out of his soup.
 When the fishermen came back to dinner. Chandler had revised his menu. It began with rice. ended with rice and had rice without intermission.
