Story Of Wea.th
Former New Havener Returns, After Many Years, Worth
 $2,OOO,OO0, 'Tis Said

When Morris Smith. brother of Charles NJ smith. the tailor of Tem- years ago in Louisville Ky, neither of them had a cent; in fact, the two lads found 1t hard work to make both ends meet and keep their widowed mother. Yesterday, Morris walked in to his mothers home. 269 Campbell avenue, West Haven, and laid at her feet a bag of gold ore and deeds to gold mines worth g, ,OOO, 900.
 The aged mother was too astonish- ed to realize that the man with heavy mustache was the little boy whom she had not seen for score of years. She went into mysteries, and MT. Smith said yesterday in his shop on Temple street. when talking about his broth CTS return, that he, too. couldn't be- lieve that he had found his brother and best of all. that he was so rich.
 The two boys parted in the Ken lucky city when Charles was eighteen years old. and the now millionaire sixteen NIDrriss had always had a hankering for wealth and swore he would sometime have it. He promised to seek his fortune. and for a time he kept hts promise, but as years went by the correspondence dropped. Morris wandered from one part of the country to the other, always seeking the elusive coin. Once or twice he struck it rich, as he thought, but the next day found him reduced to pen ury. He wbs in Arizona, New Mexi- co. where he had varying fortunes in gold mining schemes. He struck it rich in the Klondike, where he offer ed as much $2,OOO in gold ore for a barrel of flour and couldn't get 1t. Finally he tent south to New Orleans where he followed the pursuit of gold essaying.
 MT. Smith does not know how long his brother will remain in the East. He had gone to Boston last night. But whether he stays here or in the West. this much is certainty. neither Mrs Smith nor the son. Frederick, will want in the future. in fact Nor ris has already settled big sum of his newly-aequired wealth on his long

TAX EQUALIZATION ELSEWHERE

The campaign for tax equalization V hich had it's beginning in Bridge port is spreading over the state. Greenwich comes forward with an addition of $9.OOO,OOO to its grand list, mostly gained by additions to the property of the we'll to do. New Lon don makes an addition of s4,OOO,0OO. In both places, as in Bridgeport, tho grand list is far below it's actual values. The Greenwich Press and the New London Telegraph in their re- spective communities advise the vot- CTS upon this point and recommend that there be no reductions by the Board of Relief, excepting where it may happen an actual injustice has been done to somebody.
