w WIEN II was announced q lew
" DAYS ago that +. Augustus
Heinze had won his fight
against the A"malgamated
Copper company and its Standard OIL
hackers men familiar with the dapper
little mining king were not greatly sur
prised. There are few men who stand
a chance of winning when the battle
is against such men as John ID. Rookie
Teller, III. ii. Rogers, Senator W. A.
Clark and other opponents or what
Thomas w. Lawson calls ''the system
Heinze is one of these few. He gen.
orally has luck IN his side. He knows
the copper mining business from A
to u, he understands how to play both
business and politics so that the two
games will work his way, and he has
nerve enough to tackle anything. The
harder the proposition the better he
likes 1t. II. II. Rogers is considered to
possess a wonderful power as to esti-
mating men and handling them In any
negotiations he may think ft to enter
with them. But HeinZe even ten years
ago, when he was quite a young man,
proved too much of an enigma FOR the
Standard Oil vice president to solve.
There Is a story that about that time
Mr.. Rogers invited him to his office one
day with a view of compromising
the fight Heinze had preclpitated by
suits against the companies controlling
Amalgamated properties. At the be-
ginning of the Interview Mr.. Rogers Is
said to have intimated In his usual po-
lite and suave manner that of course
he had the power to crush his youthful
rival completely to the earth. Blu that
he hesitated to exercise 1t, that litiga-
ton would interfere with some OF his
plans and that, in short, he would lis
ten to a proposition for settlement. Mr..
Heinze, with equal politeness, remark
ed that he had not come to make a
proposition. that Mr.. Rogers had sent
for him. and he was there to listen.
T%hereupon John d. Rockefeller's right
hand man is said to have declared:
well. Mr.. Heinze. we will give you
S250,000 to settle all your claims-give

There's Nothing True but Heaven.

This world is all a feeting show.
For man's illusion given;
The smiles of joy. the tears of woe.
Deceitful shine. deceitful flow.
There's nothing true but heaven
And false the light on glory's plume.
AS fading hues OF even.
And love and hope and beauty's bioon,
Are blossoms gathered for the tomb.
There's nothing bright but heaven

From wave to wave we're driven.
And fancy's fash and reasons ray

Standard OIL closed with Heinze at bis
own figures then. But he could not see
II that way It the time. When the
long warfare was recently concluded
through the purchase of a majority OF
the Heinze mines by a company con-
trolled by Amalgamated hnanciers 1t
was rumored that Heinze got $25,OOO,-
600 out Of the settlement. Amalgamat-
ed officials denied the sum was so
large, but nobody doubted 1t was a
good deal in excess of $~10,OOO,OOO. The
effect of the settlement will be to re
lease the Amalgamated mines In Mon
tana from the injunctions obtained by
Heinze and permit the working of val
liable veins to be resumed.
The "F." in the name of Mr.. Heinze
stands for Frederick, and he was call
ed Fritz as a boy. but he now goes by
his middle name Of Augustus. He Is
the son Of q New York merchant and
was born in New York In 1869. On
graduating from the School Of Mines
Of Columbia university in 1889 he start
ed for Montana. His first Job vas that
Of an assistant engineer on the INSIDE
of the Boston and Montana mine, and
his pay was IS a day. During the day
he grubbed patiently 1000 feet be
meath the surface in overalls and laced
cowhides. He studied the trend and
dip of the copper veins and compared
his notes with the surface location Of
other claims. When he came out of the
mines he washed up, pat on his "claw
hammer" evening suit, n Of the first
seer In Butte, and dined as though In
a clubhouse on Fifth avenue. The min
ers called him dude" but they soon
learned that he was no tenderfoot.
After two years Of practical work In
the mines Heinze went to Germany
and spent two years there In study OF
mineralogy. Then he returned to this
country and with his brother, Arthur
Heinze, a lawyer, formed a copper
company to operate In Montana. The
young men had inherited some money
from a relative, and this they put into
the venture. They bought mines sup
posed to be valueless. but which they
knew to be worth millions, and soon
came to be big factors In copper min
Ing. Then came the clash with the
Amalgamated. with the outcome al
ready described.

Senator Armstrong. though but forty
two years of age, has been fourteen
years In the New York legislature, and
that Is a long time for a man to remain
In continuous service at Albany. He Is
recognized as one of the ablest and
most honorable of the men who make
the laws for the Empire State. He has
a strong. smooth shaven face and an
impressive figure. Though he is too
hard working a man to engage In
many sports, he is fond of swimming

New York surprised his friends by div

1t is thought Bills dive into that bog

When Senator Armstrong was six
teen his father became totally blind
and the support of the family devolvet

his plans to become a lawyer, but h
