THE ROTHSCHILD FORTUNE
Boston Iournal.A

Boston Journal)
Bv the announcement that the Prince
and Princess of Wales are 20 visit Lord
and Lady Rothschild this week at beau
tiful Gring park, in the county of
Bucks. the public eye is centering on
the head OF the greatest family of
fnanciers in the history of the almighty
sovereign.
Gring park is one of the most mag
nificent estates in Europe, and ex-
tensive preparations are under way to
welcome the royal visitors and their
encourage.
AS yet no official announcement has
been made of the invited guests-it be-
l ing understood that Lord and Lady
Rothschild have courteously left the
selections to the prince and her high
ness
The estate practically incorporates
the entire county of Bucks.
Rothschild is a name with which to
conjure riches. 1t has been the tails
man of wealth for nearly a century.
| 1t has exercised an influence in the
worlds financial centers far greater
than that of political kings and po-
I tentates.
| If the Rothschilds wished they could
cause the wFeckage of most of the
/ financial institutions in the world.
Their influence over wealth must be
! figured. not by millions, but by billions

family is Lord Rothschild, who sue
ceeded his father, Baron Rothschild. in

The home of the ROthschilds is in

in all European capitals.
The name ''Rothschild'' is taken from
the house of the Red Shield in the
Jewish section of Frankfort, Germany.
About 1850 there lived in Frankfort

GLAD TlDlNes SUPPRESSED.

OUR DEAR OLD FRIEND, Aunt
" Busy, who delights the thousands
of readers of the Irtermountain Cath
Ole with her wholesome advice to the
boys and girls who write letters to
her, declines to put into print her SEN
timents about big Butte boy who is
forever tormenting the little girls and
boys. Why, the young rascal thinks
no more of attaching a tin can to the
caudal appendage of a canine than
most Of us think of eating our dinner.
And this is how dear Aunt Busy gets
back at him:
1.-The boy in question" she writes,
''must be that detestabIe of all crea-
tures-a BULLY. Now, there is only one
way to cure such an individual. AS
this is a church paper. Aunt Busy does
rot feel free to give her opinion. but
she will write a personal letter to
the dear nephew in Butte at her earli-
est convenience and suggest a sure and
radical cure
Now the question arises: What is
Aunt Busy's cure that is so 'sure and
radical? All along the line we can
hear echo answering 'What?" Would
she have this bully hanged, drawn and
quartered? Such cure would IN
questionably be sure and radical"
Would she have his victims fed UP to
the point where they could be set upon
him with dire results to his trousers?
Alas. there are so many ways Of cur
ing a bully that we find ourselves
cropping.
Dear, dear Aunt Busy, why did you
leave us up in the air that way? Don't
you know. auntie, dear, that all of US
would like to obtain the latest recipe
for curing bullies? We know how to
cure hams and things like that, but
when it comes to DULLES we must con-
TESS our inadeduacy. Therefore, on be-
half of a GREATNESS public. we call upon
Aunt Busy TO show her hand.
The mission of a church paper is to
disseminate useful knowledge. We can't
believe Aunt Busy so much as thinks
anything that could not properly be
placed in the interesting column she
contributes to the Catholic. Her
conscience is working overtime and to
our manifest disadvantage when she
says she doesn't dare to publish heI
bully cure.
Think of the patient little sufferer in
Butte who wrote her. Are his woes
to count for naught2 She says shell
write him privately at her earliest
convenience, but that won't do. We
rise in our place and demand the cure
There are several DULLES in oGr lis
of acquaintance on whom we desire L
get immediate action.

a GAMBLER ON GAMBLERS.

THE MOST PROMINENT gambler
L in the United States has, in a re-
cent interview, given some opinions
about the fraternity. Patrick F. Sheedy
of New York is the man. He has been
a gambler all of his life; he is what is
known as square" gambler; that
is to say. he viii not rob anybody I'M
less he needs the money very badly.
Sheedy was asked to reply to a criti-
cism of himself from the lips of Dis
triet Attorney jerome. He replied:
Never yet have 1 gotten into con-
troversy with the district attorney of
this or any other country. and I am too
old 20 begin now. 1 see no reason
why should engage in any such con-
troversy. If won. I'd lose. and where
would your Uncle Patrick come in on
a game like that. I've reached that
time of life when I've learned that
the further you keep away from the
fire the less likely you are to be
burned
~Tve been gambler most of my
life. and I don't know of anything of
especial value that I've got to show
for all the hard work I've done and
all the sleep I've missed. The man
who has been able TO lay by any con-
siderable sum or money, enough, for
instance, to live on his income, and
stiu sticks to the business of an out
law. is-well, his head is screwed on
wrong 4 man has to have some
standing 20 fight with men who got
theirs on election day, and against
such men a gambler isn't deuces up
against four aces"
Mr.. sheedy IS frank. He is also
careful He recognizes the fact that
the gambler has no rights which any
officer Of the law or any citizen is
bound to respect. 1t would be a good
thing for Salt Lake City if Sheedy
could be persuaded to come to this
city and give the police department a
few lectures on the subject Our DO
licemen seem to labor under the i'm
preston that gamblers are entitled tC
more consideration than the average
citizen.
There are no more gambling house
raids. no more smashed roulette wheel:

Another thing about Sheedy's tail
that should be of interest is his state
nsent that ne has practically nothin,
to show for his years of s'hard work
and lost sleep. SheeSy is considers
successful gambler. but the chance
are that if he had his life to live a,

His first real step toward amassing
the vast fortune which he afterWard

as a financial power.

such other articles as he wished to

Napoleon's soldiers sacked the house
and took everything with them save

Rothschild had buried The clever
agent made a vast deal of protest

the Rothschild fortunes.
The Landgrave of Hesse was more
than willing that Mayer Rothsehild
should have the full use of his wealth
as he had done so much to win con-
fidence.
During the Napoleonic wars it was
necessary to send large sums of money
out of England for the payment OF
troops, the purchasing of supplies and
the management of the interests OF
the allied armies Besides this there
were not inconsiderable sums required
for the brkbing of princes and poll
ticians.
All regular banking institutions re-
fused to take these great risks. but
Mayer Rothschild. by wonderful di-
| plomacy and great skill, handled the
vast sums without loss, save in VERY
rare instances. and then only in small
+ amounts. II eight years he had made
from commissions alone about $780,
600 in his own name.
Nathan Rothschild began stock spec

Memorial Services.

Last night at the M. e. church
in this city occurred the closil Q
ceremonies Of the Annual Me-
mortal Services, held BY the G..
A. r. and w. f. c., and a large
number of citizens.
At 1880 D. M. these orders, in
a body, formed at their respec-
tive halls, and marched in a
body to the Methodist Church,
seats having been reserved
for the especial use and accom-
odation of the G. A. r, and the
w. R. c., and after they were
seated, citizens filled the unoc-
upied parts of the large church.
The union choir rendered a
very fine selection of beautiful
and appropriate music, and Rev.
Barber, of the Baptist Church,
invoked the Divine blessing,
and Rev. j. Williams, Of the
Christian Cchurch, the Annual
address. His remarks were
very appropriate to the occasion
and duly appreciated by the
congregation.
At the close of the services
the Choir sang America in
Gs1,aich they were joined by the
congregation, and then the An
nual Memorial services of 1903
was numbered with the past.
At each succeeding annual
meeting of the G. A. RS, it is
observable that the number of
the old veterans of 1865 are
growing less, and soon the band
of brave men who went forth
to battle in the dark days of the
Union under our starry flag,
will be numbered with their
father in the city of the dead,
and nothing will be left us but
the honor and glory that will
ever surround their names. All
honor to the brave boys who are
now old may they live with us
yet many day, honored, loved,
and respect ID by all and at last
sink to final rest in an honored
grave, is our wish.

Resigns His Charge.

The last issue of the "Com-
mon people edited by Rev.
John Williams, Pastor of the
Christian Church contains the
following announcement:
On Thursday evening, May
III, the pastor of the Christian
church rendered his resignation
to the church board, and it was
regretfully accepted. The chief
reasons for this are, the finan-
cial weakness of the church
since the loss by removal of SO
many of it's prominent mem
bers, and the poor condition of
the pastors health. He has
only been here a little over six
months, yet in that short time
mas FOUND a large number of
friends in Missouri Valley, and
the prospect of parting from
such pleasant associations is
more painful than might have
been expected. The end of this
month will terminate his min
istry here, and he expects to go
to Chicago. Sunday night,
May 81, he will preach his final
sermon, the subject being
Goods Message to the People
of Missouri Valley" After this
issue the Common People" will
be discontinued.

Mr.. John Creagon, of Dow
City, Ia, purchased a half in
terets in the Buren, House Mon
day, May II, and entered into
possession that day.
Mr.. Creagon is quite we'll
known in Princeton and vicini-
ty, as he has spent a great deal
of his time here in the interest
Of the D. S. Lake Nursery Co..
of Shenandoah, Iowa, by which
firm he has been employed as
general agent and overseer for
the past seven years. He has
travelled extensively over this
state and a greater part of Iowa
and thereby has gained a large
circle of acquaintance which
will no doubt prove of great
advantage to him in his new
calling. Aside from this Mr..
Creagon is not without expert
ence in the hotel business, as he
was engaged in that profession
for five years in Decatur, Neb.
He expects to hold his connec-
ton with the nursery company
but will devote his time and
energy to the hotel. He informs
us that himself and wife will
make their permanent home in
Princeton and as both are of
pleasing personality and en-
gaging manners we predict
that they will be warmly re-
ceived by our people.
Messrs. Grain & Creagon have
leased the hotel building for
three years, and start out with
the laudable intention of keep
ing the reputation of this pop
|ular hostelry up to it's old stand
| of excellence.
