Very strong views. I am out

seem, too, my father was a uLlon
soldier, a member OF the 18th Illi-

freeing the negroes. He was born
IN the South, however, and so was
my mother and they both were
raised in the slave-owning class.
Later they moved to Ann. Ill.,, my

days before 60 to Houston to take
the position that is offered me.'

Richt st Man in the World.

TheAfortune of an extremely rich
man is always All Interesting sub.
ject of speculation, when it comes
to considering the fortune Of The
richest man in the world, every
body is interested in it, probably
more in o spirit Of curiosity than
anything else. It is usually the
case that when fortune passed
$1,O0O,O00 1t is apt to be magnlfed
in the Lu5lic mind. One million
dollars is a sum so enormous that
it is difficult for the average mind
to grasp It's significance, hence,
generally speaking, ten millions
expressed in figures are No more
impressive than one million. That
is why so many miIllonaires, after
death, are found to have left es-
tates smaller than they were cred
tied with possessing during life.
It is probable that, i'll like man.
| ner, the wealth of John D. Rookie
feller has been estimated at too
high 8 figure; still, the fact re-.
mains that by calculating from the
size of the dividends he receives
from the corporations in which he
is interested it is possible to arrive
at an approximately correct esti-
mate of his fortune. A business
man closely associated with Mr..
Rockefeller and said to be in po-
sitlon to know, Is quoted in the
New York correspondence Of the
Philadelphia Press as asserting that
Mr.. Rockefeller IS now by far the
richest man in the world, worth
more than twice as mdCn as-acy
other American citizen. His Stand
ard Oil stoc.a, at the market rates,
is worth $50o,OOO,00G, from which
alone for several years he has re-
.ceived dividends of $780, 100000 per
an"um, or a little less than $l,Oo0,-
900 a week. Besides this. he mas
other sources Of income that bring
HIM about $3e, 100000 a year, so
that his total income from all
sources is not less than SIS, 100000
a year, as it has been for several
years, aud there is no suggestion
of check to the enormous inf wv.
That is to say, Mr.. Rockefeller's
income for a single year is more
than the enormous fortune left by
William H. Vanderbilt to his sons.
In ton years Mr.. BOOKSELLERS
wealth will be nearly 100000
