COREY'S UNCLE BLAMES
"STEEL'S" HIGH CIRCLES

Reid. Leeds had a wife who helped
him to make his fortune. One day,
after he became rich, he met in
Cleveland Mrs. Nonnie Stewart Wor-
Ellington, divorced wife of Geo. h.
Worthington. Leeds induced his wife
to get a divorce, giving her, it is said,
100000 TO do il. In 1900 he married
Mrs. Worthington.
Reid was Leeds partner. His first
wife had died, and when he went to
New York, he married Clarissa Ag-
new, a young woman of the comic
opera stage.
Frank A. Mcgowan, mayor of Tren-
ton, n. j., divorced his first wife and
married the wife of his superinteud-
emit. after a scandalous career. He
was ostracised socially, his business
fell off, and in a short time he was a
ruined man, financially.
Henry NJ. Flagler, John ID. Rookie
feller's original partner, married a
woman who afterwards became hope
lessly insane. The Florida legislature,
for his benefit, passed a law making
incurable insanity grounds for di-
yorce, and Flagler at once got a de-
cree. Ten days later he was mar
ried again.
Antonio Terry fought four years in
the Paris courts to get a divorce In
order to marry Sibyl Sanderson. Then
his wife died before the case was fin
ished. He married Miss Sanderson
Immediately. and died within a year.
Jas. Street came into a fortune, de-
serted his first wife, and eloped with
his stenographer. Disgraced and
ruined, he disappeared, and not long
ago asked for a job as motorman on
! the street railway of which he was
formerly president.
The madness of money extends
even TO the second generation. too.
Harry X. Thaw's recent marriage to
Evelyn Nesbit, artists model. dancer
and vaudeville singer. is an example.
The money made out OF the mills at
Pittsburg is paving for costly gowns,
automobiles, fine establishments and
for the gaycst gayety of reckless life.

New York, Dec. %. - The case OF
VIM. Ellis Corey, president of the
United States Steel Corporation, is
only another instance of the tendency
Of wealth TO incline new m~illiOnaires
to forget home ties and form new
matrimonial alliances.
Diyorcing the wife of early youth,
when life was a struggle, TO take mp
with some younger and more gay but
terfly, has grown to be almost a COM
mun practice among the rich men
who have come out of the middle
west.
The men of wealth invariably have
done one gracious thing for the dis
carded wives. They have permitted
the m to institute the suits for
divorce, gladly furnishing the incrim-
mating evidence on themselves and
have generally made settlements OF
money 10 provide for the wrecked
lives Of the women who have not
kept up with the fast pace.
Many Divorced Wives.
The most prominent Of the men of
millions whose domestic affairs have
caused endless scandal and gossip
may he listed as follows:
WIN. b, LEEDS, the "Tinplate King,
induced wife to sue for divorce, and
then married Mrs. Nonnie Stewart
Worthington OF Cleveland.
DANIEL G.. REIR, railroad and tin
plate millionaire, after the death OF

home as 500 as his days work is
done. There. at least, he can escape
the ribald remarks of his fellow citi-
zens. The devil was his undoing.
When Menu unveiled his devil in
front of his modest home at Stanton
and McGraw streets, all Detroit turn
ed out to gaze in wonder on the horn
ed monster. The people came in street
cars, in carriages, in automobiles, on
foot. They filled the ~intersecting
streets to overlooking and the police
had to be called to preserve order.
1t is estimated that 10000 people Wis
tied the scene in one day. With the
commercial instinct of a frugal Ger
man, Menu at ono removed his statue
to a shed near his shome, and charged
the curious 10 cents each to view the
devil at close range.
His receipts were 5000 the first day.
They were almost as much the second
day, while over 500 was realized

UNCLE JOE'S WEE HINT.

ED WITH THE BOYS.

Washington. d. c., Dec, 20. Mar
lin B. Madden OF Chicago comes 10
congress as a graduate of the city
council of that city. For years ne
was leader of that legislative BODY,
and not a franchise could be secured
OF a permit given without his con-
sent. He knows something about leg
i|slatiye methods, and appreciates the
Importance Of good committee assign
ments. So when he arrived in Wash
ington. a couple OF weeks before con
gress convened he went TO call on
Speaker Cannon.
Il am a plain. ordinary business
man" Mr.. Madden explained, with
concealed shrewdness. Il know moth
ing about your big legislative affairs.
But in attending to my stone business
I have been in the habit OF going
directly at things and getting down

DAL-THE LID HAS BEEN LEFT

TONS PRESIDENT COULD
HAVE REFORMED 1T.

Braddock, Pa, Dec. 23,-"We Cor
eys just now are in sackcloth and
ashes!
No calamity ever has so humili-
ated us as the action of Ellis Corey
in %discarding his wife so that he can
marry an actress.
"Butlthe boy-I've been in the habit
of calling him a boy-isrHot really so
much to blame. He is but the VIC
tim of a system. and hat system was
founded by Bill Jones, Andrew Car
negie. Charley Schwab and others.
Ellis had a chance to revolutionize
that system, but he wasn't strong
enough, and he fell"

Of VIM. Ellis Corey. president of the
United States Steel Corporation, made
this statement when asked for his

Detroit. Mich. Dec. %. 49, This
towns one known devil has gone into
temporary retirement.
Herman Mem, owner of the craven
image of his satanic majesty, also Is
about to retire from public gaze, Tor
he is a marked man on Detroit streets.
When Menu, with the aid of a friend,
carved Old Nick from a block Of paw
ing stone. he thought he was going
to have a whole lot Of fun with his
n~eighbors in general, and church go
ing people in particular, whom he
dislikes Intensely.
Instead. he is a sad, morose, melan.
choly individual. who no longer laughs
and who seeks the s%eclusion of his

to hard work. I'd like something TO
do, Can't you put me to work?"
To which Uncle Joe replied, looking
Madden over:
DO you play pOker?'
Nope"
DO you drink high balls?"
Nope. Never drink anything
Then how the devil do you expect
to find out what committee you be-
long on2 How d'you expect to get
acquainted with the bOys?'
And Madden is still wondering.

iAiE MiSS'S
Pittsburg, Pa. Dec. %. This is
the story OF a Santa Claus who brings
secondhand toys TO thousands of
children in Pittsburg. Of course, rich
boys and girls don't get this kind, for
the real Santa Claus brings them only
new toys. But there are plenty OF
little tots who seldom meet the real
st. Nicholas, and they are very glad
to get whatever has been discarded
by the children whose parent are
wealthy.
Major X. w A. Simmons is going
to be Santa Claus for about 10000
poor children this year. He has open
ed up a big room here where people
are requested to bring toys their
children don't want, and +he above

Being a mar who attributes his great
vitality at "A TO abstinence from
liquor and tobacco, j. b. Corey is
somewhat of a moralist. He claims
that the social crisis in his nephew's
life is the result of environment.
What a man sows he shall also
reap" quoth Mr.. Corey. Andy Car
negie, Schwab and others had been
sowing the seed there for a long time.
So had Ellis Corey beeen following
their policy, and he reaped what had
been sown. HOWE you ask me. Why,
