Washington Aug. 19.--(Special.)-- Several we'll informed men who have recently visited the far West esss assert srt William M. stewart having made the third fortune in life are not in the slightest exaggerated.
 It is said that that hale and hearty old politician and statesman can once more count his wealth as being not less than $250.000. At the expiration of his senatorial career here he was undoubt- sdly closely pressed for moneyi m nrS.r ana to meet his current living expenses. What property he had left had dwindled Tn value. and first one and then another enterprise did not pan out as well as the veteran hustler had hoped.
 According to Who's Who In Amer fca'' MT. Stewart was 80 years of age on the 9th of this month, but accord ing to ex-ConEressman Worthington, who represented Nevada in the House during the civil war. and who came to Washington the same year that MT Stewart first entered the Senate, the latter like so many of the public men. nipped off just about two years from his age in giving to the biographers a sketch of his life. Worthington was a groomsman at the wedding or MT. Stewart in California in the early '5Os. That was Stewards first marriage and his bride was a daughter of ex-Gover- nor and ex-Senator Foote of Missis- sippi And it was the influence of this true Southern woman that caused her husband in 1890 to work and vote against the. odious force" bill engi- ueered through the House by Henry Cabot Lodge and fathered in the Sen ate by the late Senator George Frisbie Hoar. of Massachusetts.
 Had 1t not been for the early opposi- tion of Mir. Stewart the measure. so objectionable to the South. would nrobabIy never have received enough negative Republican votes in the Sem ste to give its death blow. Only few years ago MT. Stewart married again widow nearly forty years younger than

 Just after the term of Mir. stewart expired in the Senate for the last time he invested the greater part Of the money he had saved from his financial wreck in an extensive dairy farm In Virginia not many miles from Wash- ington He had visions of earning comfortable income and leading the life of country gentleman
 Advertisements used to inform the people of the nations capital that 1T fhey drank the milk and ate the butter from the sAshburn Farm they would have the pure articles. The business unfortunately did not pay, and before 1t went to pot. the venerable ex-Senator out, would quit farming, pack up. go 10 Nevada and once more try his luck in the mining regions to which thou sands of people were being attracted. aPoor ola Stewart" many a Senator was heard to remark. Most every one thought he had what people who use slang call wheels in his head They

NEWS OF EUFAULA.
The City is Now Suffering From an
 Ice Famine.

Eufaula, Aug. 19.--(SpeciaL)- )--The Baptist denomination or the city has made arrangements for holding ser vices for time in the new Chautau- qua theatre. The Rev. pr. Wharton, the pastor, Mas not yet returned from his annual vacation tour and only the Sunday School exercises were held there yesterday.
 The citizens are almost in what might be termed, an ice famine. Ow- ing to some unknown cause, the driv- CTS of the delivery wagons have relin- quished their duties and the proprietor of the factory has not yet been able to supply their places. The only means of getting the commodity Is to send to the factory for it, which works great inconvenience to families, many or whom are remote from the place. Ev- cry effort is being exerted to remedy the trouble but up to this time with no effect.

EX-SENATOR STEWART MAKES
 HIS THIRD LARGE FORTUNE
At the Expiration of His Political Career in Wash ington He Was Undoubtedly Closely
 Pressed for Money.

thought 1t was ridiculous for a man rapiuiv approaching sV to think of mix ing up in the mad rush for gold at his time of life. It couldn't be done. nearly ssery one en ana the as ssst ne for him was to sit in the corner and keep duict while the younger men looked for the fortunes. but old MT. Stewart believed he knew a thing or two, and he announced in ftatfuoted sort or way that he was not only going to try for another fortune, but if his health held out he'd find 1t. And he did.
 1t is not now looked upon as such a strange thing either for 1t should be borne in mind that when MT. Stewart started out after fortune No. 5, al though he was v ears of age by ms MT. Worthingtcn says--he was as spry as most men of 6v. He was up in the age class with the late Senators Nor gan and Pettus. of Alabama, but MT. Stewart was as lively as cricket com pared with those aged gentlemen du- ring the last nine or twelve years of their lives. Stewart has always hao rosy complexion. and has never im- pressed people as being within even f1rteens or twenty yeaas of his actual age, and this, too. in Spite of the fact that for quarter Of a century or more, hls beard and hair have been as white as snow lie looks so much Ike wears aro. just before Christmas. q lit- tie girl ran up to him in the Capitoi and said: "Oh, please, Mir.

Nixon, the pres ent Republican Senator from the State. Stewart has been a Republican, was then a Populist, almost edged at one time into the Democratic Party. and eventually Topped back into the Repub- IiHan ranks. He was about the most ardent advocate of free silver in the whole country; published paper here once called the silver Knight" and had no use for any man suspected of being what was called a gold bug.
