A MILLIONAIRE?
Rev. r. A. Sublett, Of Greenvi1e,
Is Heir to Many Millions.

Greenville, July 22.-The Rev. R.
"A. Sublett, of this city, is about to
come into a great inheritance of some
millions Of dollars, and his many
friends here are awaiting with IN
'terest the outcome Of the contest tor
the great Western estate, to which
the Rev. Mr.. Sublett is said to be an
sheir.
Mr.. Solomon Sublett was one Of the
richest men Of tile great Western
country, some fifty years ago, and his
estate was valued at some O,OOO,OO0
to $40, 100000. The estate was located
in the heart of Kansas City, Jefferson
City, and St. Louis. Mr.. Solomon
Sublett was survived by his wife. His
will stated that she should hold his
fortune in hand until she died. She
married again, and, as the will pro-
vided, her daughter fell heir to the
vast estate. The will further stated
chat, should the daughter or heir die
without other heirs, the estate should
revert back to the family, and this
has been the case. The estate thus
went to two brothers Of Solomon Sub
lett, one Of whom was the great
grandfather Of the Rev. R. A. Sub
lett, of Greenville. 1t is in this way

O. K. Letter Writing.

Having summoned the new and
very winsome stenographer, Horatio
Bingleworth, who was director in
more than a dozen great commercial
institutions, said:
my wife has gone to Florida for
six weeks and I have promised to
write to her every day. I haven t time
to dictate a letter to her now, but you
can write one, suppose, without that.
Just fix it up and bring it to me for
signature. ."
Twenty minutes later the lovely
stenographer returned to the private
office and placed sheet Of paper be-
fore the great magnate. Picking it up,
he read:
: Ny Darling:-It gives me great
pleasure to turn aside from the exact
ing demands of business and give up
all my thoughts to you. I am glad to
say, dearest, that I am feeling quite
we'll, but OH, it is very lonely here
without you. I cannot tell you how I
miss the sound Of your sweet voice,
and how I long to look into your love-
ly eyes-to gaze upon your beautiful
countenance. The day seems terribly
long since you have gone. [ don't
know how I shall be able to live
through the six awful weeks that must
elapse before you are to return to my
eager arms. You must make up your
mind now, sweetheart, to come back
to me the moment your time is up.
I cannot permit you to remain away
an hour longer than the period which
We agreed upon when you started. L
am hungering for glimpse Of you,
my love. think Of nothing but you.
Waking or dreaming, r.
"Say," Mr.. Bingleworth suddenly
exclaimed, dropping the letter and
turning toward the lovely stenogra-
pher, "what kind Of chump do you
think I am, anyhow? Is that the way
you ID think I'd write to my wife If l
had to do it myself?"
"I-I don't know" the beautiful
stenorapher answered. ''You didn't
tell me what to say and [ wrote it as
I thought I'd like to have you write
if-if the letter was intended for
me-"
"Hm!- well, in that case, YOU
might tell them to move your desk
in here beside mine. I shall have so
much debating to do that 1t Will be
necessary to have you very near me.
And write another letter. Don t
spread it on so thick, or she'll get
suspicious and hurry back.-Chleago
