ness OF pleasure That was before the
advent Of the taxicab, and a cabman had
an individuality then Hence Kane's
aliterative nickname.
His stand for a good many years was
in front of Rectors, and was a l1cra-
tive one. But the fact that he took in
gOOdly sized fees almost every night did
not lead Kane to spend freely. He care
fully banbed all he got, and would draw
out onl. such sums as he required to pay
for his living he was in fact a miser.
and. Ike most mfsers, had a mistrust Of
banks which led him to divide his de-
posts among no less than ten institutions.
For sixteen years previous to his death
in 1908 Kane lived in a boarding house
in East FOrtieth street He was friendly
with his fellow boarders, but by no means
intimate. Not even his landIady could
break down the mans reserve. but it was
understood in the house that he had
past Quite evidently his right name was
not Kane for that is the name Of natives
Of Ireland, and this mans features plainly
showed that he was of Jewish extraction.
Only once did he let any information
concerning his youth escape him He re-
marked casually during an ordinary con-
versaton that he had been born in Chi
.eago, that his parents had died when he
was very young and that his boyhood
had been spent on a farm in Illinois. And
that is all that is known about him
His death was a sudden one. He was
survived only by an old bay mare and
an ancient cab. After waiting for the
mans heirs to appear the Public Admins
traitor sold both Of these and with the
money bought a grave in Kens5co Gene
terry. Frank D. Kane lies in that grave:
Frank D. Kane" is the inscription On
the tombstone, but it means nothing. He
might just rs well have been buried under
any other name, in so far as that one
identifies him. And it is important that
ne be identified, for in the city treasury
there are many thousands Of dollars wait
ing for any one who viii bring forth a

the balance little in the home direction.
''Of divorce we know nothing, he says.
About ninety per cent Of the married
pairs get along happily at home. About
ten per cent do not live happily, but still
they continue TO live together About five
per cent decide that they can no longer
live together and the man goes home to
his family, while the girl goes home to her
family Then after two or thee years
they may again try to live together. If
they cannot then agree, each again goes
to his or her own home to stay.

The miser whose money has been lost
was Richard Tiley Denton. He was an
Englishman who inherited $4,000 as a
young nan. but with strict economy he
managed to keep this money intact until
he grew old. When he was sixty-five

feast for their eyes when he spread his
fortune out ON table Tt was an entic-
ing pile of gold composed of 1000 SOW
ereigns. Mrs. Hone felt nervous with
all that money in the house, and so she
suggested that he bank the money at the
first opportunity; consequently the two
started for New York next morning with
the gold in two canvas bags that were,
wrapped in newspapers.
They went to the banking district. which
at that time centred around the City Hall.
