PORT ‘WORTH, Tex.,, May 18.—Tom ‘Waggoner, richest man in Texas, has an office building 23 stories high on the very spot in the heart of Fort Worth where he once herded cattle. He is one of the last of the old-time cattiemen of Texas, as plain and hearty 2s when he was a cowboy 50 years ago. ‘When I entered his office, away up in the W. T. Waggoner Building, he looked up !mm under the brim of his hat and said gru “well lo "ahead and shoot.” «“They say you are the richest man in Texas,” I ventured. “I don't know whether I am or not,” he replied, still from beneath his hat brim, his head down and his eyes on a stub of & pencllbhc kwna shoving through his fingres and back again. “Bofl‘l: say you are worth $100,000,000, and some say more. How rich are you?" Unable to Give Figures. «1 don’t know, blamed if I do. They pestered me about that when I was on the witness stand in the suit of my daughter-in-law against my son Guy for allmony, and I couldn't tell ‘em. T've got my managers to do that.” The old pencil weaved slowly back and forth thl)\lgh Tom Waggoner's fingers. He watc ed it a while, with head bent, then said “You can tell em, though, that no matter how much money I got, there's more happiness in just workin’ along, makin’ a fair livin’, than there is in bein’ rich. My best days were when I was a cowboy ridin’.the range. “I held a herd of cattle overn! ht { right on this spot where this bulldin’ stands.” “Right here, on this spot, I rode all night around my herd, and I was hap- pler then, a cowboy, sleepin’ in the sad- dle, than I am now away up here in the sky in my own buildin’ on that same 5pof “But a Icllow has just got to keep goin’. My business is all organized, and it keeps a-runnin’ whether I boss the job or not. Yet, all the same, it's true that the best days I ever saw was vmen I was a cowboy, ridin’ the range.” “You made most of your money in oil, didn’t you?” ‘Waggoner growled, in his deep rum- bling voice, “I didn’t need the oil. I was doin’ well enough without the oil. I'm a cattle man. I love & cow better than most anything else in the world. Made Money on Ranch. “T was makin’ money on my ranch, with my cattle, and I never have been friendly to the oil. It made a heap of momy. yes, but it's made a heap of trouble, too. I was a sight better off when this dollar was all I owned.” And he reached into his trousers pocket, took out an old silver dollar, and held it up. “That's the first dollar I ever OPEN A CHARGE ACCOUNT FINE MEN'S WEAR EISEMAN'S—7th & F W.

Home for the Dead Never Leaks Always Dry—Lasts Through the Years SOLD BY CHAMBERS At a Price Any One Can Pay earned,” he explained. “I've carried it ever since as a good luck piece. “They tell me you have the biggest ranch in Texas. Is that so?” “No, it ain’t so. I've got only 550,000 acres, and the King ranch down in South Texas, has nigh 1,000,000 acres. 1 reckon mine is the second largest.” “Do you own all that land?” I asked ‘Waggoner. “I reckon I own it. I paid cash for it and got the deeds to it and therc ain’t anything against it. I'm still in the cattle business, too, mind thlt I'm no ol man; I'm a cattle man. I got 50,000 head of cattle up there on the ranch, and 30 cowboys to take care of ‘em. The boys are shippin’ out 4,000 head today.” ‘Waggoner’'s ranch is all in one solid body of land in Wilbarger, Foard, Knox and Baylor Counties in North Texas, near the Oklahoma line. Waggoner owns nearly all of Wilbarger County. On his ranch is Lake Kemp, made by damming the Wichita River. It is one | of the largest artificial lakes in this country. 1Its shore line measures 100 miles around. Waggoner bought the lands of this ranch before there was a railroad in that part of Texas, when it was the real wild West. It cost him, he , $1.25 to $2 an acre. It is now said to be worth about $15 an acre, making the land of his ranch, alonme, worth more than $8,000,000. Oil Discarded as Worthless. ‘How oil was discovered and for years discarded as a worthless nuisance was told by Waggoner. In 1902 he was drilling a well for water for his cattle and was down 2,000 feet when oil came bubbling up, & black, smelly liquid. “Well, sir, there I was, all that money and time and work spent puttin’ a hole down 2,000 feet and the whole thing spoiled by that stinkin’ black oil,” said ‘Waggoner. , “I didn't want the cussed oll. I wanted water. Oil was worth only 40 cents a barrel then. We aban- doned that well and went away off and sunk another and got water.” For eight years the oil well remained despised and forsaken. They stuffed old clothes into the hole and rammed them down with a scantling, trying to plug the opening so the oill wouldn't run out and befoul the grass, but it continued to seep out and a little of it was gathered up and used for greasing the wheels of wagons and ranch ma- chinery. Then came the motor car and the de- mand for gasoline. Oil went up. A big oil company heard of the well on Wag- goner's ranch, investigated and leased a part of his llnd giving him a 'cash bonus of $100,000 ‘and a royalty of one- eighth of all the oil. It turned out to be one of the richest oil pools in Texas. Builds Town of Electra. ‘Waggoner built the town of Electra, naming it after his only daughter, now dead, and there he put up a re- finery to handle part of his oil. In one year $50,000,000 worth of oils was taken from the Electra fleld on Waggoner's ranch. The wells on that part of his ranch in Wilbarger County tlowed 30,000 barrels a day. Some idea of the size of the Wag- goner fortune was given when Wag- goner's son, Guy, was sued for divorce and alimony by his fourth wife. In the trial the question of the value of the Waggoner estate was gone into. The court appointed an expert a&p- praiser, and he testified that the Tom Wsnoner estate was worth $98,000,- 000. In five years its revenue from oll profits was $10,000,000. In 1928 there were 1,040 producing oll wells on \Vaggoner's ranch, and he was getting a bonus and_ one-eighth of all the oil from them. In 1925 his net income from was $2,000,000. In that same yean oil leases that cost him $24,295 were sold for $2,000.075. ‘The appraiser testified that in one five-month period Waggoner's oil and gas royalties brought him $3,699,735. In one year he sold cattle at a net pmm. of $273,000. m Waggoner, himself, was put on lhe stand to tell how much he was worth, and he testified that he did Heads Rail Meeting H. T. LIVELY.

At Arlington, near Fort Worth, Wag- oner has 2,000 acres, a rac%tmck and he “Three D. Stables” that cost him more than $1,000,000. There he has a string of famous thoroughbred race horses. The head of his stud is Pha- laros, and other nationally known horses he owns are Handy Mandy, Vermajo, Prince Pat, Double Heart, Calf Roper and Panchio. “I can’t see the races myself, for I am nearly blind,” Waggoner sald. “I can hardly see you, sitting right there. My boy Psul looks after the horses and I get & klcl out of it, just hearing about the r¢ “I just sit here lnd live in the past moluy * he went on. “There's a pic- ture I prize above all others,” and he pointed to & framed picture taken in 1906 when President Roos:velt visited and hunted on his ranch. “That was the best five duys in all my life of 76 years, when he visited me,” he remarked. “He was one of the big- gest, finest men in the world, a sport. I chased wolves with him. ~He was there when the dogs caught 11. I ve him the best horse on the ranch, and he was some rider. “I was a cowboy just as soon as I was old enough to ride a horse, and I've herded cattle from Houston to the Pan- handle, all over Texas.” Asked for his opinion of the future of the cattle business in the Southwest, ‘Waggoner said: “It'll simmer down to real stock farming. The last big ranch will soon be cut up. Land is too high and '1 too dear and everythi.n: s0 high a ranch is too costly to handle to advantage. “The cattle business will always be good, on & smaller scale, and 1t will always be business for any young man to go into. It will have its ups and downs, but a good worker and manager will always make money at it. and talks too much about the old times, because I lived in ’em and knowed ‘em, but these young fellows today are havin® just as good & time with their auto- mobiles and paved roads and radios and picture shows, and there’s just as good chances to make money as there ever was.” The Steel Casket Rests in Alr-sealed Voult Year Guarantee low as ..

FORT MYERS, Fla, May 18. ‘Thomas A. Edison qualified today as’'a fisherman, not because he caught any- thing, but by his ability to tell about “the one that got away.” Mr. Edison has lived right next door to the best tarpon fishing in the world for 46 Winters. Today he went out for a try at the silver king. He caught one, too, but it got away. After 15 minutes of desperate struggle the great tarpon leaped high into the air, dived beneath the boat and suc- ceeded in fouling Mr., Edison’s line in the propeller. Undismayed, the master inventor vowed to get one and bring it home before he and his wife return North next month. Mrs. Edison had a thrill on the fish- ing jaunt today when she hauled a stingaree aboard. Braths. BARRON, MARGARET A e Boyd.
