tweeds from his turned
UP trousers to his fore and aft cap,
twirling a cane on his fingers and
whistling a regimental ditty. The
next day. he was lost to the world. He
disappeared the way shadow van
ishes when the sun hides behind q
cloud, leaving no answer to the ques-
ton where. They pressed official but
tons in the British war office and
Scotland Yard, and an alarm for the
missing officer went to all parts of the
world. At the end of 30 days the mys-
terry mark was placed opposite his
name in the army records.
Thus. In 1910. another tragedy is
linked with the name of Sharon, or, as
they phrase it out in the Pacific coast,
with, the long-dead argonaut's money
bags, says writer in the New York
World. Stretching wide the list to
take in all who had a part in the de-
veloping situations of the Sharon
drama, there are disclosed no less than
four murders, three suicides and two
disappearance. Lieutenant Hesketh,
in the latter classification, was Sha-
ron's grandson.
William Sharon was one of the Gold
Hills pioneers. In mere money get
ting he lived under the star called
Luck, which, by the bye, is not chart
ed by astronomers, but shines in the
financial heavens for the few with the
brilliancy of harvest moon. Sharon
stepped out OF cowhide boots into pat
ent feathers; from mountain shack
to a city mansion. His few mean two
bit coins in greasy bag grew into
fortune which clogged bank vaults.
Having munched the dry loaf of grub
stake poverty, he put millions into a
hotel which he called Palace, as a
monument to full stomachs and riches.
His overnight fortune came from the
Crown Point and Belcher mines in Ne
vada. He became a senator from that
state. And then, having lived life
made up of healthy, hard knocks in its
earlier stages and the overease of OPP
ulence in the gray-bearded half, he was
borne to the waiting mausoleum. The
wealth he left behind made pyramid
of millions, and likewise pyramid of
trouble. There were outstretched
hands for every dollar in the pile-and
the money-bag tragedies began.
Ralston's Pathetic Death.
William G. Ralston, who had often
shared the output of his battered cof-
fee-pot with Sharon in his roughshod
days and later sat with him on sofa
cushions in the directors room of the
Bank of California, had already start
ed the list. When the financial pinch
caught the bank and frightened Fris-
co didn't know whether its money was
good, bad or Indifferent, Ralston &C.
cused Sharon, and then took his own
life. 1t was a polite tragedy. While
the crowd was pounding at the closed
iron doors Of the bank, Ralston, at his
mansion in Belmont, across the bay,
slipped into his carriage and drove to
the swimming beach. as was his GUS

The policeman then seized the goat

MEGARGEL'S
ROAD MAY GO
THROUGHSE[MA
MONTGOMERY ADVERTISER CON-
TAINS STORY ABOUT THIS
ROAD, AS WELL AS coNNEc-
TONS 1T HAS MADE.

The Montgomery Advertiser OF yes
terday contained the following:
Selma, after all, may be on the route
of the Gulf, Florida and Alabama
The plans for a connection with Selma
are being considered by the manage
ment of that road and it will be de-
cided early in 1912.
The stockholders have elected w.
W. Jennings of Tonawanda, Pa; F. Err
win of Albany, n. Y, and T. A. Jen-
nings of Pensacola, as directors. Roy
c. Megargel of the banking firm in
New York. is president of the road,
while G. A. Berry, is appointed Gen
eral Manager in charge of operations
out of Pensacola
Mr.. Megargel is reported as saying
that the financing for construction is
fully arranged and that nearly all of
the first mortgage bonds have been
placed. From Pensacola to Tuscaloo-
sa, through the counties of Escambia.
Clark, Hale, etc, to Tuscaloosa-223
miles-the survey has been completed
but 1t is possible that there will be
a branch survey from some point in
Marengo County to Selma. Specifica-
tions have been made for four locomo-
tives and 200 box, fiat and passenger
cars, and it is expected that by April
1, 1912. trains will be operated on
eighty miles of the road. This eighty
miles will include the road of South
ern States Lumber Company from
Cantonment to Local, in EsCambia
County, and the twenty one mile gap
between Pensacola and Cantonment,
which is now being rushed.
To Enter Pensacola.
The Meridian and Deep Water Rail
way that is now being constructed
from Meridian eastward to the Tom
bigbee River has made arrangements
to enter Pensacola over the Megarr
road and will connect with it about
135 miles north Of Pensacola This
is significant from the fact of a story
that The Advertiser learned Monday
from gentleman who travelled
through southwest Alabama last week
and is pretty well conversant with
the railroad situation down there. Ac-
cording to his theory the situation in
that part of Alabama resolves itself
into a vast network Of the Frisco in
terests filled in with the interests of
