almost every case such places are completely walled in and the various entrances are closely guarded. No matter how far from the mansion may be the lodge, no one is permitted to enter until he has been announced by telephone and permission has been granted. MT. John D. Rockefeller, for instance, is as closely guarded in his estate at Tarrytown or in Cleveland as is royalty. Even person stopping before one of these entrances is close ly watched The estate of MT. George Gould, at Lakewood, is guarded in the same way, while others might be cited.

And what did they ask for it?"

And what did they ask for it?"
 Only $50,000 They wouldn't have asked that much only they were both butchers, and they wanted to go back east and start a big retail shop with Persian rugs on the floor and mirrors all along the walls. 1 couldn't help but sympathize with their scheme"
 And what did you do?"
 Well, l am tender-hearted, sym pathizing man, and after a few talks with them, I bought the mine for $50,- GOO. and saw them depart
 Aud then you found that they had swindled you?"

 But we fail to see how" said three or four men in chorus.
 Why, they only got $50,000 of me to open a retail butcher shop with rugs and mirrors. Suppose they had wanted to open wholesale shop, with rare old paintings on the walls and landscapes on the ceiling, and l had paid them $1G0. 0.000."- Cincinnati En- Quirer

munity, and his most praiseworthy act is attributed to ulterior motives, per haps to very selfish and unworthy ones. One of the most familiar in stances of this is the case of man who ranks among the most liberal dis tributors of public benefactions in the world today, whose name is on every ones tongue, and yet he is the subject of bitter attack, and his benefactions are attributed to his desire to place certain securities in conservative hands throughout the country. It is, of course, impossible to please every one, and the dissatisfied element are certain to feel bitterness in direct ratio to the size of the fortunes in volved.
 The diseases of the rich are still another disturbing factor in this bal ance. It is no exaggeration to place a number of distressing physical ills in this category. The nervous and mental strain of handling great for tune is exceedingly trying upon the strongest organization. It was Jay Gould who remarked, during the ex- citement of a great financial panic, that a man controlling a fortune of S50,000,000 had no time either to eat or sleep. A man in active control of a great fortune is obviously under tremendous strain. As a result cases of physical breakdown in Wall street are common, and men young in years are often old in health
 Kidnapping Plots.
 It is only a short time since a plot was revealed to kidnap John D. Rocke feller and hold him for the payment of an immense ransom. Here is another danger which man less conspicuous for his wealth avoids. The case was,

Still others may be disguised as servants One or more men will, of course, be on constant guard in the rooms where the presents are dis played.
 Even the pleasure of distributing charities becomes very complex and irllsome affair when the sum to be distributed reaches enormous propor- tions. During ones lifetime, at least, it would seem that it would be an easy matter to dispose of money. As a matter of fact, many men and women of great wealth are obliged to place their benefactions upon regular business basis in order not to be robbed. Several men of great wealth, notably MT. Rockefeller, are compelled to employ men at large salaries, who are in turn assisted by staffs of clerks, to examine into the demands made upon them and after investigation de- eide just how the money shall be distributed It is certainly no fun to enjoy the pleasure of giving at the ex- pense of all this complicated and irk- some business detail.

A man in the ordinary walks Of life, again, who contributes to church or endows hospital or college may be generally praised for doing so, but for a man of great wealth it is difficult to make any gift without being misunder- stood, perhaps severely and bitterly criticised The white light which beats upon a throne is turned on his slightest act.

 At last even "Hunch" grew weary of we'll doing and paused undecided whether to take in the big house with the gable roof, or to go home. After thinking it over under shade tree for some minutes he evidently com promised with himself by stealing away to less pretentious section of the town and halting back of a neat frame house.

 But "Hunch" evidently possessed the broad philosophy that looks on all after a quick survey of the moonlit premises he sneaked to the kitchen window and was soon inside the house. MT. Bilks felt wave of right eous indignation sweep over him as he swung his gum shoes over the sill and carefully kept few paces behind the cOmmercialized burglar. There was more risk in small home like this, he well knew, than in one of those big barn-like places he had al ready entered; but as far as any com motion was concerned the two crooks might have been moonbeams, or fall ing leaves, so easily did they move from room to room.

Killed in Mi..e

J. B. Schultz, manager of the Great Sulphide Copper Mining company, Silver Bell district, met with death by the sudden descent of g big iron buck cts in which he was being lowered down the shaft Wednesday afternoon. The fall was about 1S0 feet and hap pened after the bucket had been drop ped by cable less than twenty-five feet when something became disarranged and the bucket with its precious weight shot down to the bottom of the shaft. An effort was made to check the fall by Mir. Carr, one of those in- terested in the property, but his ac- tion failed of purpose, resulting in his hands being badly cut.
 Miners from a nearby camp were summoned and they succeeded in draw ing up the bucket in which Schulz was found dead, life having been crushed out by his head striking a projection on the bucket in the fall.
 The remains were brought to the city for shipment. Deceased was about 40 years of age and former resident of Oxn ard, California.-Tucson Star.
