run. When the savages neared the herd they left some 20 of their num- Der to take care of the cattle, and the rest of the red men came after Jack and Mike at break-neck speed. For the first two miles the herder and his companion seemed to be leaving their pursuers behind. but Jacks pony suddenly sprained it's shoulder by planting it's foot into a prairie dog s deserted burrow, and bullet from Mikes rifle soon put the poor creature out of it's misery.
 Up behint me, bye.' urged Mike. Well have to ride fer tn Chimney"
 The herder's pony could only go at a trot, carrying double weight, so the Indians were hardly an eights of a mile behind them when they reached their hiding place.
 I'll go first said Mike, "so l can stiddy you
 The Chimney went down at a slight angle about a 150 feet Into the rock, and had probably been hollowed out by the action of water There was quite a growth of vines and bushes sprnging from the soil on the ledge on the inside.

And if you see any Indians, ride for the Devils Chimney" said Widow Arnold to her son Jack, just as he and Mike Flanagan, tine chief herder, were starting out to find some stray cattle.
 Frank Arnold had come to Colorado eight years before with his wife and siX-year-old son, but he was killed dur ing the third year of his residence by a band of wandering Indians, leaving Mike in charge of the ranch.
 As Jack and the herder set out, they had no thought of danger, for Indians had not been seen around for several months. Mike and Jack rode across the prairie in searth of the cattle, and found them in a creek bed five miles from home. Suddenly Mike saw a cloud of dust off to the south and rapidly drawing nearer.

PLAYS WITH TITLE TO FORTUNE
Boy Shoos Chickens With Lease of
 Real Estate Worth Millions.

Milwaukee.-Millions lost because an ancient lease, considered worthless. was used as plaything by children, is the story told by Henry Forncrook, who was supposed to hold the paper upon which the Forncrook heirs all over the country depended to prove their claim to 160 acres of land in the heart of New York city, worth to-day at least $15,00O,0O0.
 Henry Forncrook is now S4 years of age, and member of the National Soldiers home. He recalls that as boy he rolled the lease into club and drove chickens with it, and also used it as a spelling book. One day he took it to cave. where he and other boys had rendezvous, and that is the last he remembers of the docu- ment upon which hinge to-day the for tunes of people all over the United States.
 No one paid any attention to the loss of the document at that time. as 1t was considered worthless for the reason alone that the land was considered worthless. The title was clear enough.

two became great friends. According to the stories told in Wall street to- day, and which have been turned over and over again of late on account of Harriman's busting of Fish from the Illinois Central, it was Fish who gave Hartman most of his commissions in those days; commissions which brought him in touch with men that he would probably never have met otherwise. Anyway, when these mo- guls of finance who belonged to Fishs crowd won in the market Hartman also invariably added to the size of his bank account.
 With a competence assured E. H. Hartman sought him a wife; wo- man of the elect. It has been said that poverty stricken though his fam fly had been they had never permitted themselves nor the children to forget the pride of good breeding. He did not forget. He married Miss Mary Averell. of Rochester. Her father was man sinews that count in the battle of dollars that is waged i'll Wall street. This Averell money came from a railroad source. Mrs. Harri- mans father is reputed to have made the most of it in the Rome, Water town & Ogdensburg company out of which so many others have become enriched.
 Before he was 30 years old Harri- man had seen the greatest financiers of the time come their croppers one by one. He had seen some of them

Mike waited long enough to pick the two nearest savages out of their sad dies and then started down the Chim- ney by the aid of the bushes, Jack following. Suddenly the boy lost his hold and fell more than ten feet onto the ledge where Mike was standing.

 Jack agreed and started Tn, but soon scrambled out again.
 There's panther in there, for l saw his eyes," he cried.
 Mike peered in and said, You're right, Jackie, and I'm afther thinkin' he looks ugly"
 As he spoke they heard a snarl and the savage animal jumped toward them. but, as they tucked, he flew over their heads and, striking the op- posite wall, fell with a thud to the bottom.
 Mike and Jack then crawled into the cave and lay down. Soon they heard the jabbering of Indians, and, looking up. saw them making a fire of green stuff, and smoke soon began to fill the Chimney.
 "Begorra!" exclaimed Mike, strip ping off his coat, the scoundrels are

thrying to smoke us out. This cer- tainly is the divil's chimney, only the smoke is coming down instead of go. ing up. Sthrip off your coat, Jack, and we'll fool the sneaks.'
 The herder and Jack waited in the cave for about six hours; then, the smoke having cleared away, they crawled out of the cave and looked up. It was quite dark and they saw that the Indians had rolled huge rock over the mouth of the chimney
 Mike" exclaimed Jack, there must be an opening down below, or how did the smoke clear off ?"
 They started to descend, and on the bottom they found the dead body of the panther. They soon found the hole through which the smoke had passed and by good deal of squeez ing they got through it onto the side of a cliff. After walking along ledge they reached a path that led to the top. They then caught their pony, which had been quietly grazing about, and were soon off on a trot for home, and were soon telling of their adven- lures to an anxious and interested crowd of neighbors

buy. It was a time that must have put iron into the souls of the boys; a time when they were driven to make god of self-denia1
 The good times came to the family through Mrs. Hartman. A legacy was left her, and the old days of bitterness and poverty passed away, but not their discipline As they had been sufficient unto themselves when they had little, so the Harrimans were sui ficient unto themselves when the tide turned It was not much that Mrs. Harriman's ship brought in about as a dollar bill would be to the wealth of enough to lift the burden from her husbands shoulders and to buy a home at Eighth and Erie streets, in Jersey City, where the family lived comfortably for many years. It was enough, too, to save the minister from vestries which would not pay The Rev. MT. Hartman gave up St. Johns pulpit in West Hoboken in 1866, which was shortly after the legacy fell to his wife
 Henry at this time is described by men and women who knew him as a boy of pleasant nature, who liked to do most of the things other boys did, but with view of life that was much broader and deeper than most of his associates of his age. He realized that his way in the world depended upon himself, and, whether by chance or through somebody's aid, he chose Wall street as beginning. He ap. peared in the street" not long After his family moved from West Hoboken to Jersey City. He was a clerk in a small brokerage office and he was a good one. He used to go running around downtown in those days just as the army of youngsters, with wal lets in hand, are running around down there now from the time the banks open and the ticker-tape begins to run until the market closes for the day.

Yet he never came back from the firing line without scalp He took profits even when the historic anthra- cite corner brought Jersey Central down from $110 to s6 a share. He had hand in smashing that combination, and the men who had been behind it knew that he had, and he laughed at | them.
 By this time the little man in a | deacon's collar and hard black tie. and whose trousers were always
 bagged at the knees, had got his smell of railroading. He had tripped J. Pierpont Morgan in that bankers scheme for the reorganiza- tion of the Erie sailroad. Morgan had drawn terms for the stockholders. Hartman drew counter terms and much better terms for the stockhold- ers-and himself. He beat Morgan then and he has beaten him since. It was only few years later-dn 1S83-that he went into the Illinois Central Stuyvesant Fish helped him there, but that didn't matter to Har- riman during the last six months of 1906 Fish had bucked him, or rather his ally, the Standard Oil. in the reor- ganization of the Mutual Life Insur- ance company. Fish tried to get what the public believed would be an hon. est administration. Hartman de- manded that the present controlling outfit remain in office. It is still there, and Fish is out of the presi- deney of the Illinois Central, which shows that Hartman will fight and spare not even his best friend-un- less he has to spare himself
 But this railroad fnancier has his charities. There's a house over on the east side called the Boys club, which it is said, he built at a cost of $250,000, and which it is also said he keeps up with an annual maintenance check. It is said also of him that he gives Christmas trees away every year to the country school children near Arden. His estate there com prises 30,000 acres, and great many of the little school folks belong to the employees of his domain.
 It was only two months ago that Hartman was "cornered' in Chicago by a newspaper man. It must be

OIL AND GAS FOR MEXICO.
Denuding of Forests Causes Diaz to
 Grant Concessions.

Gradually Mexico is becoming Americanized, due to the foresight of President Diaz. For years gas was not allowed to be manufactured in the republic. A few years ago a small plant was installed in Merida, the capital of Yucatan. Because the Mexicans considered gas dangerous 1t was impossible to get concession to manufacture it. Another reason was the great scarcity of fuel. It has caused the government much worry.
 Wood for domestic purposes is sold in the City of Mexico by stick and the forests of any extent are hun dreds of miles distant from the cap ital. The universal material for do- mestic consumption is charcoal and the manufacture of the product is rapidly denuding the forests which exist within a. reasonable radius of the City of Mexico. It was to pre- serve these forests and solve the fuel question that President Dias

QUEER lUlCABIES.
Songs for the Babies Are Found in
 Every Cline.

It is not given to all classes of song to be universal; some countries are rich in one particular style, some in another, but we may safely affirm that the lullaby is indigenous to every soil. There are mothers and babies ir all lands and, therefore, as natural se- quence, we find the lulling song or lul- laby. From China to Peru, from Spitz- bergen to South Africa, motherhood in it's primitive form is ever one of the best sides of complex human na- ture The little cannibal, the embryo fire-eater the untutored Aino baby, all turn with something like spark of affection toward the mothers who gave them birth, and although we probably find more melody, more beau tiful poetic imagery among the lulla- bies of European mothers, yet we must not fail to take into account the sincerity of such lines as these which infant:
 Snail, snail, come out and be fed, Put out thy horns and then thy head, And thy mamma will give thee nut
 ton.
 For thou art doubly dear to me.
 The Arab tawny treasure seems to be easiest sent into dreamland with the following bucolic verse:
 Sleep, my baby, sleep;
 Sleep a slumber hale,
 Sweetly rest till morning light,
 My little farmer boy so bright,
 And the little Zulu goes to: Hush, thee, my baby,

 And water she'll fetch from the river

 The men to whom have been granted the concession have issued instructions to commence the install lation of gas plant to supply the City of Mexico and the suburban towns of Tacabuya, Mixcoac, San An gel, Cherubusco, Taeuba, Atzacapot- zalco, Coyoacan and Tlalpam.

Borings 1000 feet deep in New Or leans have encountered nothing more solid than mud, sand and a little thin clay; hence the problem of making safe foundations for the piers of a giant railroad bridge which is soon to the city is hard one for engineering science.
