an hour he raised $4,000 on the strength
of his securities. He placed this sum
with a broker whom he served daily,
told his story and left the rest to the
broker.
Within a week he cleaned up $4,000
The broker made a fortune out of the af-
fair, and was partly responsible for the
failure of carefully laid financial trap
The waiter kept right on at his work
after investing his capital in first mort
cages. His son, likely lad, approaching
maturity, is expected to graduate this
year from the Massachusetts, Institute of
Technology. He has taken a course in
chemistry and the dyeing of textiles. and
will face the battle of life with first-class
weapons.
At Delmonico's uptown establishment
is a waiter who rejoices in the name Of
Philippe" He is the owner of an apart
ment house on 26th street and carries a
mortgage, as most apartment house own
ers do, but he borrOws no trouble on that
score. During his Off hours he looks
after the repairs and improvements of his
property-and thereby hangs a tale.
A lady and her husband, steady CUSTOM
ers Of Delmonico and well known to Phi
lippe. were combing the 20s In search Of a
steam-heated apartment. The lady finally
found one that almost suited her. II a
parquetry flooring were laid in the front
room of the apartment it would just suit
her for a library, and she would be will
ing to take a two-year lease.
The janitor referred her to the renting
agent, but the latter had no authority
to make the Improvement. and referred
her to the owner She was advised to
call upon the cwner between certain
hours. In due time she called upon the
owner. and, to her astonishment. he
proved to be none other than her favor
ite waiter from Delmonico's. It is said
that the lady got her fancy flooring and
signed the lease, and that Philippe has
exchanged liberal Upper for profitable
tenant.

self. He has no family. and when asked
what disposition he intends to make OF
his savings. he states that he intends to
spend every penny before he dies. This
man is no longer young, and If he is IN
earnest about his plans he'll have to
spend money pretty freely from now on
in order to get rid of it all, for conserva-
tive estimates among his fellow-waiters
place his wealth somewhere between $780,
600 and $4,000.

which was peculiar to the family and
could not be conveyed to the public at
large, SO that the effect Of the deed would
be that the Randolphs would lose their
right of access to the grave. but the pub
lie would not gain that right.
Moreover, it was pointed out that the
only person who could give the public the
right of access to the grave was the own

Martha Jefferson Randolph to Barclay.
own and forever have the right of access
to the grave, and, besides them, Jefferson
M. Levy Is the only human being who
has free access to the grave of Thomas
Jefferson.
That Mr.. Levy persistently has refused
to grant free access to the grave to the
public is shown in letters which he has
addressed to the Department OF State.
On April IL 1884, Mr. F. T. Frelinghuy-
sen. then Secretary Of State, wrote to Mr..
Levy declining to expend the balance of
an appropriation for the Jefferson monu-
ment, for the building OF granite steps
from the roadway to the fence about the
grave until the owner Of Monticello, Mr..
Jefferson NJ. Levy. should invest the gov
ernment with the irrevocable title or right
of way from the public road to the grave
yard. Another letter on record in the
State Department shows that Mr.. Levy
tried Mr.. FrelinghuySen's successor, Mr.
Thomas F. Bayard, on the same matter,
and received from Mr.. Bayard exactly
the same reply-that the government

tion relating to the proposed move may
be pteced together with profit, and the
man at the door seldom comes out loser
when he combines his brains and saw
ings.
Take, for instance. the men at Saw
arms and the servltors at the downtown
establishment of Mouquin's. Nearly all
OF the permanent walters in these places
own their own homes. Many of them live
on Staten Island and can boast of the
possession Of valuable parcels of real es-
tate. Owing to Their short hours of labor
these men find the Staten Island location
peculiarly accessible and convenient for
them. and they are In a position to enjoy
to the fullest extent their more or less
luxurious homes-the fruit of years of

at Savarin's. He is the owner in fee SIM
pie Of a profitable and extensive vineyard
at Montvale, N. j. His holdings also in
clude fair specimen Of the country home
Of the well-to-do American merchant. and
he is rated as being worth some $1,000.
That he Is also something of a politician
well as a waiter is Indicated by the
fact that the mayor of Montvale, during
temporary absence some time ago, ap-
pointed August to act in his stead during
the term of his absence. 1t is stated that
August, during his hours Of relaxation, is
amusing himself with the breeding of
fancy poultry, and Is experimenting with
the culture of certain French vines in an
effort to improve the quality of the wine
that he produces.
Another waiter at Savarin's, known to
most OF the steady patrons as Jean"
Is supposed to be worth some S6O.0Oo.
The consensus OF opinion to the
source of his riches appears to he some
what as follows: He was serving a party
Of brokers at luncheon one day and over
heard some plans about certain stock
that was to be hammered. He got the
captain to excuse him from duty for the
balance OF the day on the plea Of sick
ness, slipped into his street clothes. drew
$500 that he had saved from his tips,
and went short" on the stock that he
had heard was to be pounded. 1t was
an unimportant stock. and he had heard
certain figure mentioned as the signal
for the 'let-up."
The day following he remained away
from work and watched his investment
Upon the afternoon of the second day,
just before the closing OF the stock ex-
change. he closed the deal and took his
profit. 1t amounted to a little over
$4,000.
He invested this sum in gilt-edged Sc
curities. which were quickly convertible.
and bided his time. The following year
he overheard a conversation between a
certain officer Of the appellate division
Of the supreme court and prominent
broker. 1t was the year of the big slump
in Brooklyn Rapid Transit. He got of

heaven-neither can be bought at any
price. To others he has said that should
he decide to sell the price would be not
less than million dollars. The value Of
the property, however, must be reckoned
as historic rather than intrinsic. Though
the most cherished of all his land posses
sions even in Jefferson's time, when the
property's value was greatest, the little
mountain" was a mighty poor piece of
farm land. and during the years and
years Of tilhng the none too fertile soil
has become exhausted and non-produc-
tive. All about Monticello land sells for
$40 an acre.
The tax assessment Of Albemarle county
places the value at $41.76. which would
make the present price for the 21S acres
which Uriah Levy bought from Barclay
a trif1e over $4,000; the mansion and build
ings are assessed at $12OOOO. giving q
total value of $4,000 Should Mr.. Levy
finally accede to the steadily growing de-
mand for public ownership of the prop
erty, and wish to sell with the mansion
not alone the 21S acres of the original
tract acquired by his uncle from Barclay.
but the remainder of the 604 acres
since acquired, it would seem that he
could be quite generously remunerated
in a sum between $500 and $4,000
The assumption that Monticello offers
limitless welcome to all patriots who
would lay their tribute on Jefferson's
tomb must be catalogued with lot of
other pleasing but unfounded fancies.

One of the best known men among
well-to-do walters is "Gustave." who

He is one of the few who have made a
serious study of the calling. He learned
his trade abroad while still young man:
and that he has made good is indicated
by the fact that he recently had cruis-
ing power boat built to his order at an
expense of $1,000. The boat sleeps
eight persons, and nearly any summer
afternoon during slack hours Gustave
may be found at the helm of his private
yacht. entertaining some Of his assO-
ciates. During the season he pays his
engineer $50 weekly; and that he is we'll

earnings approximate the sum Of $50
weekly, and that he no longer has any

Jockeys of France, earning $1,000 francs
yearly in salary. exclusive Of what his
owner permits him to accept for extra
riding. Gustave's only daughter is toLr-
ing the world in her own vaudeville pro-
duction. The daughter was a headliner
IN vaudeville last year. and her salary
was said to have been $500 weekly in real
money.
She has a maid, as q matter of course,
and has adopted a little black boy who
travels with her as q sort of mascot.
Everything she has Is due to her waiter
father. who spent generous sum Of
money on her preparation for the stage.
Now that his two children are self-sup-
porting Gustave feels that he can afford
to indulge in pleasure craft.
Also. let it be whispered that Gustave
is a widower.
One of Charles Rector's oldest walters
is also lover of the water. In the days
before the old Rector establishment was
torn down this man had one Of the best
stations" in the restaurant. Too inde-
pendent to work for strangers while the
new hotel was being built, he purchased
a houseboat for 1900. installed pianola
aboard it, fixed up dynamo SO that all

electrically. paid 81 600 for a nobby little
tender. and by the aid Of the latter. towed
his property up the Shrewsbury river.
Together with his family he spent the
summer OF 1910 anchored in comfort, and
a part of this last summer, when his
Gossips among the walters give this
man the credit Of taking in one of the
largest bona-fide tips ever pocked in New
York. 1t was upon the memorable occa-
sion Of the testimonial dinner to Prince
Henry Of Prussia. and Is said to have

in view of all this, 1t behooves one to
ask: Is there or is there not a royal
road to wealth in these early days OF
the twentieth century? In seeking an
answer. consider first the way of the

house on West End avenue which is as
sessed by the city of New York at the
respectable sum of $4,000. He is a
wtdower. His working name Is Claude" +"
and a furnished room on 44th street
serves him for lodging purposes. 1t is also
handy to his work and more convenient
place OF residence than an eight-room
apartment in his own property.
Some of his closest friends whisper
that Claude got his start by inside tips
on the stock market from a well known
Wall street operator whom he served.
Others. claiming to be equally we'll ad-
vised. declare that the fortunate waiter
has been in the habit of depositing his
tips at compound interest for many years.
and that several years ago he plunged
on a real estate option at an opportune
time. The concrete fact remains, at all
events. that Claude has two grown-up
sons who are at present in Paris complet-
Ing courses In the Ecole Po,ytechnique.
