He Rose, His Succoss as a Chore Boy, Stud- ent, Clerk, Timer, Surveyor, Tanner and Banker Betore He Rose to Fortune, Cleveland Leade I knew Jay Gould when he was a boy and have always regarded him as a per. sonal friend,” said a well known Cleveland broker. ‘““He was born and passed his boyhood days on a farm about one wmile from Roxbury, Delaware County, N. Y., at which place T was engaged in business before I came West. T was well acquain ted with the whole family, and they were very nice people. Mr. Gopld was small in stature, Jike his son, and lame. He was a Democrat, and took a great interest in local politics, attending every town meeting and electioneering with the greatest earnestness. The male members of the Gould family were remarkable for their precocity. They came into manhood much eatlier than most boys, and at fifteen Jay was as sharp as most young men at twenty-two. - Jay's mother and sisters wero all intelligent, refined women. Young Jay had a desire to attend the me for his board, and I kept him all winter, He was an excellent boy. His habits _were all good, and he devoted most of his evenings to study. He was always the first one up in the mornin and “he had the fire burning and the tea- kettle boiling by the time my wifo was ready to prepare breakfast, The nex spring 1 moved to the farm and Jay's father took possession of my house in town, 1 was running a tin shop, and, as I could not very well attend to that and run the farm, Jay bought me out, and for a year turued his attention to selling pans “and nhilk pails and doing jobs of tinkering. The business did not suit suit his tastes, however, and he pisposed of the shop. He was a fu penman and a first-class accountant, and he soon se- cured a position as contidental clerk to a merchant, who combined the real estate business with his mercantile pursuits quite extensively. It was in this position that Jay firs gave evidonce of the shrewdness whic:: 18 & part of his nature. A portion of an estate, which had been the subject of lit- igation for years, was about to be sold, and Jay's employer had endeavored to purchase it. There was some disagree- ment about the price. The executor asked §2,600 but the man for whom young Gould was working was not will- ingto give more than $2000. Jay, of course, read all and wrote part of the letters that passed between the two, and it occurred to him that he might make a strike. He discovered that the property was worth §4000 in the market, and un- derstood that there was a chance to nch- ulate. Accordingly without his employ- er's knowledge, he borrowed $2,600 from his father and went down to Kingston, where the executor of the estate resided. He said that he had come to purchase the land, and laid down the money. The bargain was soon closed. the deed being made in his father's name, and_inside of two weeks Jay sold the land for $4000, clearing $1500 by the transaction, This breach of faith caused a separation of Gould and his employer, and also burst a little matrtmonial bubble in which the former and a female relation of the latter were central figures. ‘At this time, when Gould was be- tween nineteen and twenty years of age, he was considered a good surveyor, and his services were in great demand. A short distance from Roxbury lived Col. Pratt, who had been sent to congress in that district. He was an ignosant man, but, being worth about $100,000, was considered the most important person in that section. He felt his own importance, and delighted to see his name painted on the fences and printed on large bills. He was a farmer, tanner and sheep-raiser, and he usually placed all the titles.after his name when he wrote it. He had a great desire to make his the model farm and add fresh laurels tohis wealth of re- nown, Accordingly he sent for young Gould to come and make a survey of the place and arrange it in a tasty manner. Gould saw that the old man was suscep- tible to flattery, and when he had con- cluded his work and was about to leave, he said: “Colonel, you are a statesman, farmer, tanner and-sheep-grower. You ought to make yourself more famousstill by build- ing the largest tannery in the world.’ ““‘By George! T would ’ said the Colo- nel, 4f 1 knew where I could get plenty of bark.’ ““That was enough for Gould. He went down into Lackawanna county, Pa., and near where Goldsborough now stands, found thousands of acres of hemlock tim- ber uncut. He asked the people living ¢ | about there if they would give him land on which to build the largest tannery in the world, They readily agreed to give him all the land he desired, and he then made contracts in his own name for bark, at twenty-five cents per cord, sufficient to run the tannery for twenty-five years. He returned to Colonel Pratt, who was astonished at his success, and who told him to go on and build the tannery, and he would furnish the money. In the course of time the mammoth es- tablishment was in full blast, under the firm name of Pratt & Gould. "Such a great firm must have banking facilities, 80 Gould organized a wildeat bank at Gouldsborough, and, as he was not of age, he induced his relatives to take a large portion of the stock and appoint him their proxy. He was elected direct- or of the bank, and everything went on swimmingly, = All the notes issued by the bank bore a picture of the tannery or some pertof it,and the tannery -] everything in Gouldsborogh. Colonel Pratt offered to sell to Mr. Gould for £40,000, or pay to him $10,000 to leave the business. Gould was given ten days to consider the matter, and at the end of that time he surprised the colonel, who |had ~ supposed him without ready | funds, by agreeing to purchase the tan- ne He gave Leupp & Le, of Now York, | as security, and Colonel Pratt was satis- fied to get out. Charles Leupp then became & partner in the business, and, as hie furnisned all the money, of course, he | footed all the bills, which ‘came in so fast [that on the memorable Black Friday Leupp and he | Leupp & Loe went to the wall could not withstand the strain, killed himself by sending a bullet thro his brain, Leupp left two daughters, and the only thing left them in the wr was their father's interest in the tannery. Lee was appointed administrator of his partner's estate, and he decided to take £ possession of the tannery and drive Gould out. Then occured the great war, an account of which has been published. Lee went to Scran- How the Specnlator Began and How village school, 8o he offered to work for h | ton, Pa., and consulted a lawyer named Willard, who advised him to resort to force. The two went to Goldsborough and organized a band of roughs, who marched to_the tannery and took posses- sion. Gould, hearing the news, came up from New York, r»lriwl about 100 more ruffians, who armed themselves with clul guns, scythes, and all sorts of weapons, Gould hung a red flannel shirt on a pole, and under this banner the foree marched to the tannery, and, after asevere fight, the Lee forces were dis- lodged and driven from the field. The matter was then taken into the courts, but Leupp's daughters never got any- thing. The tannery rotted down, and nothing but ruins now mark the spot whero the great railroad king began his speculative career,” | — Not a Case, Not a case of rheumatism not a case of neu- ralgia, not a case of lameness, not & case of pain or sprain—not one - has fatled to go when attacked by Thomas' . electric Oil. e— TH IRST WOMAN IN CAMP, A Warm Welcome to the Arrival of a Wife from the East, Denver Tribune, June 30 was a day of jollification at Carbonate, Col., being the advent of the fivst wagon, « the first woman, and the tirst board from the mill. It would have Leen interesting to the reader to witness the electrifying effect on the men in the camp when word was passed along the line thata woman wascoming. Long be- fore she was within a mile of the camp knots of men were gathered here an! there, watching, looking in the direction from whence the wagon was to come. As she hove in sight each one gath- ered around his camp, as when an alarm had been sounded ina prairie-dog town. When within a few yards of the outside habitation the woman alighted and, accompanied by her husband, proceeded to the county clerk’s ofti (It had been advertised that the donation of a town lot would be given the first woman who came in.) Curious eyes were watching her every step as she approached the clerk’s quarters. But the crowd which had gathered around the oftice for mail receded respectfully each side of the entrance. As she passed in Col, Ferguson serenely loomed up and, sailing out among the boys, agitated a re- ception, Seized by the inspiration a hundred hats were removed from heads of noble structure and design, siluriatedsomewha'. perhaps, and a hundred horny pelv passed over the unkempt locks to smool « them down; vests were pulled down and a hundred pair of eyes ran down _tho re- spective owners’ ~‘‘diggi clothes,” proudly inspecting the inevitable ‘‘ball stitch,” which rejoined the dismembered seam or held in place the patch of con- spicuous dimensions. By a look of com- mon consent the colonel was the man selected to make the reception speech. Uneasily pluming his mustache with car- bonate stained fingers, the colonel ap- proached her and, followed by the un- covered heads, he inadvertently yanked a frog from his throat and began: “‘Respected madam,” and a hundred heads nodded assent. Appealing again to his v o stache for the nieeded insy ira- tion, the Colonel resumed again: ‘Re- spected madam—the illuminating spectre of this most fascinating occasion—" And a hundred heads bobbed serenely again in assent. Pluming again the source of insdiz bion, the halting Colonel staggered on: “Footprints of thine, which have first fullen on our carboniferous soil we welcome thee.

Mrs. Lillian Langtry sailed yesterday worning for England “on the Alaska of the Guion line. Freddie Gebhard and a goodly number of disconsalate friends of the dude persuasion,with moist eyes and trembling lips, bade the Jersey beaut; good-bye and wish ¢ her bon voyage. 1t was ¢'1 affecting scene. The only jolly one of the crowd was Mrs, Langtry. She did not appear to mind the parting, but Freddie was visibly affected by the sepa- ration, “‘It may be for years,” tenderly whispered Freddie; and then, as the tears flowed fast adown his sad, manly face, he added, “'it may be forever.” Even nature wept, and the departure was made amid a misty rain drizzed which considerably dampened the ardor of the sightseerers, who crowded around the vessel as Mrs, Langtry jauntily tripped onto the gang- plank and shook hands with Dr. Grew, who is to be the lady's medical attendant during the trip. “Oli, thank you, doctor; T thought you | would be on hand; thank you;" said the Lily, as the doctor gallantly led her to room H. amidships, on the starboard |sido. The spectators strained every eye ihv watch the movements of Fre ( ? hard, 1t was rumored that the Lily's [ self-constituted guardian would at the |1ast moment resolve to accompany her | across the briny ocean and share with her the perils of the sea, as he had shared with her the perils by land. But they parted on the deck of the ship, after a whispered conversation, lasting several minutes, Then the bell rang and the whistle sounded, and the final adieus were made. No, not the final adieus, for Mrs, Langtry kissed her hands pas- sionately and affectionately waved anoth: er farewell to Freddie, who lifted his hat frequently and with emotion, all the dise in_ the [” [ white thying to force & smile. His friends who_stood mear were inclined to cheer, but Freddie checked the impulse, tt was a moment of supreme sorrow to him. Mrs. Langtry was dressed plainly in a light gray traveling suit. Amongthe passengers for the Alaska who arrived at the last moment were three members of the Salvation Army Major Moore, Captain Inman and M, Captain Shirely. Ostensibly the Salva: tionists were going to Liverpool and Lon don for recruits. It is said however, that they took passago on this ship with a view of looking after Mrs, Langtry's spir itual wellfare, which has been sadly ne- glected during hor travels in search of fame and fortnne, At 7:30 the great steamer got away, with Mrs, Langtry, Mrs, Roberts, her compagnon du voyage, and her maid. Dr. Grew, her medieal attendant, and the band of Salvationists, as spiritual advisers, will endeavor to bring the Lily back a full-fledged officer in the Salvation Army. Freddio was “all broken up” as he stepped into his carringe, which was driven away from the dock to slow music. As for Mrs. Langtry, her excellent spirits were due to the fact that in London she will meet Oscar Wild in his newly donned George VI, suit, which msthetic companionship will of course console her for the absence of Freddie. Then, too, she was happy, notwithstanding her enforced separation from Freddie, boe ve of her financial success in ihis countvy. That she had cleared £125,000 during her recent season; that she holds bonds and mortgages on properly on Fifth avenue; that she is going to buy some new frocks in Paris; that she is having a new play written for her by Bolton Rove; that she has had an opportunity of u dening herself of a mass of *‘taff the kindness, hospitality and beauty of the American p.‘up\u; that she has done Coney Island, and expressed herself freely respecting its restriotions and its nuisan- ces, that she has mastered A sling and intends to *‘spring unsuspecting public; that she has received an offer of marriage from a man out West; that she has contradicted the malicious reports ns to her fondness for ,.ugd.»%,,-, and writing books about Am rica; that she is coming back again {0 wheedle somo more dollars by her new plays, her old company and her poor acting—all this is enough, surely, to make her happy. In the saloon of the Alaska there was alarge colloction of flowers and fruit, intended for Mrs, Langtry. A magnifi- cont floral horseshoe was pointed out as Freddie's contribution. In her room, which is a large one, there were also many choice gifts of buds and blossoms, some beautifully arranged in baskets Mr. Guion was the last to bid Mus. Langtry farewell. Looking at Dr. Grew he said: “‘You are in good hands, and 1 hope you will have a pleasant voyage and a good time.” — All nervous and blood diseases are in-| variably cured by the use of Samaritan Nervine. ‘‘Samaritan Nervine would be cheap at 8100. a bottle.

Hugh Hastings, of the New York Com- mercial Advertiser, has been interviewoed by the New York Herald on the nex Presidency. He was dressed in nankeen and said: “Look at that ridiculous list of little pigmies published in the Zimes. Why, it's positively humiliating. There isn't a six-foot man among ’em, Democrat or Republican. Look at the last hero of the Democratic party—the ablest, best and purest—Horatio Seymour—with one foot in the grave—where's his peer? You can't find him. Certainly not that old cripple Tilden, whom I have known man and boy these lifty?'enrfl‘ Bless my heart, 1 remember him when he peddled grated turnips for horse-radish.” ““‘What!" ¢ ‘Yes, sir, exactly that. It's just 50 years ago, when 1 was a lad in an Albany store. Tilden's father had a kind of patent herb store in Lebanon. On roadway, just bolow State street Job Gould had a store, and Erastus Corning's place was directly opposite, and the boys used to point out Sam.

He take a red hot-stove.’ “ ‘Would Cornell agree to a united delegation for Arthur from New York?' “‘Arthur is making no effort, He ds to make none.

Between 10 and 11 o'clock Saturday night the alarm of fire was sounded, cauged by the. great volume of smoke dis- covered pouring out from P. C. Miller's paint;shop and wall paper establishment on north Main street. The fire boys were soon on the ground, and though the fire burned very briskly, owing te the in- flamable nature of the food given it, suc- ceeded in stopping its progress, and pre- venting what threatened to be a very se- rious spread of the flames. The kmildinfi was saved in pretty good condition, and the greatest damage to stock was from water, the wall paptr be- ing almost ruined by the soaking it re- ceived. The fire originated in the rear of the building, and is supposed to have been caused by spontaneous combustion of rags soaked with oil. The loss will reach about $600, it being mostly caused by water. COOD NEWS FROM TEXAS.
