Of Twelfth Night. The study anC
work put in this is deserving Of
more than ordinary recognition
For amateurs to read the lines OF
Shakspere is no idle task. The
lines, the acting, the interpreta

WIDOW Of H. R. JACOBS
HERE ENN|LESS VAIN
SEARCH FOR FRIENDS
Cared for by StrangerS-Hus-
band Once a Millionaire
Theatre Owner.

Two girl s~tenographer Samaritans
are to-day seeking relatives and
friends Of Mrs. II. r. Jacobs. widow
OF the one time owner OF twenty
three theatres and director OF twenty
seven road companies. and who now
has only an ancient fur coat and a
little dog, although her husband was
once reputed to be a millionaire.
II. r. Jacobs was at n time a
partner OF Proctor. His home was in
Schenectady. and he owned theatres
in Albany, New York. Chicago. Buff
falo and other cities. He died two
years ago. and since then his widow
had become more and more destitute,
with only the little dog to comfort
her.
Three weeks ago she arrived here
penniless from Albany to acquaint
certain persons with her plight. She
was too to write and went to
q public stenographer near Forty
second Street and Broadway. The
young woman wrote until tears
blindti her, and then called an as
sistant. They talked 1t over and de-
cided to do what they could for Mrs.
Jacobs. They obtained a small room
for her and have since been caring
for her. and trying to find her rela-
tives. They have spent all their
Christmas money and cannot 20 on
indefinitely with the expense. Mrs.
Jacobs hopes some day to recover
part OF the fortune her husband once
poaaessed.

NO MIRACLE ABOC. THIS, JUST

And what happened? Let Mr.. Lau.
n tell Il:
There wasn't any miracle about IT,.
The ladder just rose naturally, step
after step or his climbing. He
hadn't been married a month. for in
stance. when he had an OFFER from a
rival stock exchange house at almost
double the pay he was getting. The
following year this new employer put
him on the floor OF the Exchange to do
part OF the trading. His wife helped
him save. and when they had a nest
egg he took advantage Of opportunl-
ties that came to him from being on
the spot and did a little profitable
trading on his own account.
Later. he bought a seat on the
Exchange for himself. His brother,
In the mean time. had married too,
and after a while they Joined hands

their own. Both boys were popular.
and clients Just naturally came 10
them. Among these were some of
the biggest operators OF the city. And
under this stimulation their business
increased by leaps and bounds. Fred
Fosdick eventually was elected to
the Presidency of the Exchange.
Meanwhile he had bought a seat on
the New York Exchange and had
opened offices in Wall Street. To-
day he is one of the wealthiest men
