.PEODLER GRABS KISS
FROM WOMAN IN PARK,
HITS HER WITH CANE

NEW YORK, May 21-Marino Cas-
tragiOyani, peddler, was walking in
Central Park, when he was suddenly
seized with an irresistible desire to
kiss some one. Mrs. Lena Reayen of
1872 East One Hundred and Ninth
street was the woman nearest him,
and she was wheeling baby carriage.
To her he rushed and threw his arms
around her. Mrs. Reaven screamed
and fought him. Marine struck her on
the head with walking stick, cutting
a deep cash in her scalp, and then
fed.
Central Park was crowded. Hun
dreds who saw the attack joined in
the wild chase after the fleeing man.
Policeman Corey caught him and had
a hard time keeping back the angry
mob until help came. Castragiovani
was locked up in the West One Hun
dred and Twenty-third Street Station,
charged with felonious assault Mrs.
Reaven, after having her wound sewed
up, went home.

these estimates are very close approx
imations to accuracy, but as being the
best which can be made from the data
available, and as being fairly compar-
able with those published eight yers
ago, relating to the year 1904. The
sources OF Information employed were
reports of assessors and other state
officials; the Yearbook of the Depart
ment of Agriculture; Census reports
on agriculture, manufactures, street
railways, telegraphs, telephones, cleo
tric-light and power stations, and
transportation by water, and reports
of the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion, the Bureau of Foreign and Do
nestle Commerce, the United States
Geological Survey, the Bureau of Nav
igation, the Chief Engineer of the
United States army, the director of the
mint, and the comptroller of the cur
rency.
In less than two-thirds of a century
from 1850 to 1912-the total wealth
of the nation, excluding exempt real
estate, increased from $7,136,00O,00
or 5000 per capita, to $175, 1926 900, 900,
or $1,836 per capita, the percentages of
increase being 1883 for the total and
496 for the per capita amounts. In
other words, the wealth of the nation
as a whole is nearly twenty-five times
as great as it was in 1850, while
that of the individual about six times
as great.
The exempt real estate, which was
estimated at $12,314,OOO,OO or $219
per capita, in 1912, includes the build
ings, other structures, and public
works owned by the federal, state and
local governments, with the land on
which they stand, together with such
real property of educational, charitable
and religious institutions, as is exempt
from taxation.
Some of the items which make up
the 1912 total are the following:
Taxed real property and

BIGGEST GIRL BRIDE

DOES BUCK AND WING

KANSAS CITY, Mo, May 21.-The
Union Station was turned into a big
side show and several persons missed
their trains in an effort to get a look
at Mrs. NJ. A Gowdy, IS years old,
weight more than quarter of a ton,
or, to be exact, 5S7 pounds. Aside
from being the biggest girl in the
world" Mrs. Gowdy is a bride. Until
two weeks ago, when she was welded
to Gowdy, tall, lank and weighing lis
pounds, she was Miss Josie Jolly.
ut may be nobody loves a fat man,
but there's men who love fat women

Gowdy.

fat are forever complaining. | am sat
isfied. l like to be fat. You don't
catch me rolling around on the floor
or taking any of these new-fangled ex-
ercises to reduce. l want all I've got
and I'll not object to more weight"
Just to show she could "step about
bit, Mrs. Gowdy did a genuine buck
and wing dance for a select audience
in Miss Anna Skeletons hairdressing
parlOr in the station.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 21.-The
national wealth is officially estimated
at $187, 1876, 100000, or $1,965 for each
man, woman and child in the country.
Such are the figures contained in the
special bulletin, Estimated Valuation

Farm implements and ..

Telephone systems .... 1881 900, 900
No other class of property was val
ued at as much as billion dollars.
The total wealth of New York, $25,-
011,G00,000, is the greatest shown for
any state, while Illinois and Penn
sylvania, with $15,484,O000OO and
$5,458,O00,00O respectively, are close
rivals for second place. Other states
which rank high in total wealth are
Ohio, with $S,9O8,OOO,OOO; California,
$8,464,0OO,000; Iowa, $7,868,OOO, 900;
Texas, $6,30S, 100000; Massachusetts,
$6,303, 100000; Missouri, $5,S42,000 900;
New Jersey, $5,743,OOO,OOO; Minnesota,
$5,547 100000; Michigan, $5,427 ,OOO,-
600, and Indiana, with $5,195, 000 900.
No other state is credited with as much
as $4,000, 100000.
That assessed valuations do not, in
themselves furnish any index to the
actual wealth of the various states is
brought out in a striking manner by
table showing the ratios between as
sessed and estimated true valuations
of property throughout the United
States. These ratios vary from Ill
per cent in Iowa to 100 per cent III
New Hampshire and Wyoming. In Il
states they are SO 1-3 per cent. or less;
in "a states, so per cent. or less; and
in 10 states, sc % per cent or more.
The latest published estimates of the
wealth of foreign countries show $685.
280,000,000 for the British Empire in
1908, of which amount $72,997, 0O0, 900
was credited to the United Kingdom
The estimate for the United States in
1904 was $1O7,1O4, 200, 100000. The
wealth of Germany in 1908 was esti-
mated at $77,864,OOO,OOO. Comparable
estimates for other nations are not
available.
