SAVES HER DOLLARS.
Mrs. Hetty Green, Richest Woman In
America, Lets Not a sIngle
Penny Co Astray.

Mrs. Hetty Green, of Hoboken, n.
j., and Flatbush, l.. l., with busi-
ness Office in New York and resi-
dence in Rhode Island, is one OF the
most picturesque characters of the
time. Her fortune has reached in
calculable proportions, yet she lives
more economically than the average
New York clerk. whose income does
not exceed 500 per month. She
delights in driving shrewd bargain,
and never gives up a penny without
a satisfactory equivalent. She owns
valuable real estate in every large
city in the United States, notably in
Chicago, where she has several tracts
of over 100 acres each, in promising
parts OF the city.
Hetty Green was born rich, as were
her parents before her, the family
having been for years identified with
the large whaling trade which cen
tered about New Bedford. As a
young girl she was pertinently called
the princess OF Whales" and was
even then regarded as one of the
country's greatest heiresses. At Sar-

Chicago, according to SOME authort,
ties, means great" or strong but
the Indians themselves asserted that IL
means "shunh." They fortified their
claim by relating that once upon a
time a chief named "Shunh" was
drowned in the river and 10 perpetuate
his memory the red men named the
stream for their unfortunate compan-
ion. The early trappers and traders
attempted TO change the name several
times, but without success.
Capt. Whistler, the first commander
OF Fort Dearborn, was n revolutions

and had had years OF frontier duty
He was in command until the sum
mer OF 1911, and during his admins
tration managed to maintain com
paratiyely friendly relations with the
Indians and TO attract number oil
settlers to the new town. He was
succeeded by Capt. Head in June
1911. When the war with Great Bri'
tain broke out in 1912, the govern
ment, apprehensiye that pest

frontiers, could not be successfully
maintained, ordered il abandoned.
On August IL, Capt. Heald marched
out OF the fort, and after proceed
ing two miles on the lake shore he
was attacked by the Pottawatamie
Indians. Twelve, the entire number
of the militia garrison, 26 OF the reg
ular troops, two women and II chi
dren, in all 50, were killed and several
wounded. The Indians destroyed the
abandoned fort; but il was rebuilt
in 1916, under Capt. Bradley The
fort continued TO be occupied until
1897, when, the Indians having left
the country, it was abandoned. The

stood watching a company OF raw
militia drilling. She was the daugh-
ter OF Paul Hendricks, one OF the
most prominent tories on the Island
of Manhattan, but although the girl
knew little of the affairs of her
country, her sympathies were with
the colonial cause.
Quite unmindful OF the heat, she
stayed on until the sun had sunk and
IL was fast growing dark. When
Pauline reached home she was greet
ed by the sound OF angry voices, and
on coming nearer she saw her father
shaking his fist in the face of n
young colonial officer, and heard him
cry:
mo! No! tell you, MOI"
AT this the young officer bowed,
and said: IL thank you, sir. for the
courtesy with which you have re-
ceived me, and will lose no time in
conveying your answer to Gen. Wash
ington."
As the officer turned he caught
sight of the girl, and. removing his
hat, he bowed slightly.

One hot afternoon soon after the de-
feat OF Washington's troops on Long
island, she took her hat and stole out
for walk. She had not walked far
when she heard a strange sound and.
pulling aside some bushes, she gave
gasp OF surprise, for there, with
his head pillowed on a coat, lay the
officer she had seen talking with her
father some weeks before.
She quickly lnel- beside him, and
when he spoke il was to say; II

nodded, and he went Oh: Il am

The birth of Chicago dates from the

Lieut.. James Swearengen and marched
overland from Detroit TO the foot of
Lake Michigan. They were followed
by Capt. John Whistler, who, with his
wife and baby son, came by the lakes
with supplies. The spring was well
under way before the two expeditions
came together and all possible haste
was made to put things in shape for
the approaching winter, A fort was
built at point which is now the foot
OF Michigan avenue, facing Rush street
