Megistrate Leroy B. Crane yesterday completed the work of reclaiming from poverty and degradatfon a man who be- friended him thirty years or more ago. One day three months ago a gray- haired, bent and broken old man was arraigned before the Magistrate in Har- Jem Court as a vagrant, His money had run ‘too low to permit him to live even in the cheapest lodging-house. Driven to the street the old man was arrested as a vagabond, Magistrate Crane gazed at the weath- er-beaten face and then told the police- man to take the old man into his pri- vate office, He had recognized in the ragged prisoner the person of Joseph F ‘Whitteld, who years ago was the high- salaried manager of the allk department in a downtown wholesale store. While in that capacity Magistrate Crane was employed by Whitfield and received such Kind treatment that he remembered his benefactor through the changing for- tunes of thirty years, at the end of which time Whitfield, Oroken in fortune and body, stood before a Judge whom he had employed as a boy, Dur the last three months Magis- trate Crane has supported Whitfleld in comfort, but owing to Whitneld's broken health physicians decided that he would A feminine voice yelling, Murder!

It was said to-day in the Childs Butld- ing at No. 19% Broadway, where Mr. Wellborn has an office, that he never travels with less than $5,000 or $10,000 in his pocket. Mr. Wellborn is the head of a syndfeate interested in zinc, copper and coal mines and crude of] in West Liberty, Ky. Sir Thomas Lipton is a member of this syndicate. ‘The elevator man In the Childs Butld- Ing said to-day that since Mr. Wellborn took an office there he has seen more money than he thought there was in the world, “Why, sometimes,” he sald, ‘Mr. Well- born will take seventy or eighty of those crisp yellow $1,000 bills out of his pooket and count them for me, Sometimes ho Jeta me hold them, and, say, that makes me feel fine, though It often keeps me awake thinking of those beautiful yellow silps.”” When Mr. Wellborn first came to the Childs Bullding he gave the janitor a check for three months rent in advance. The janitor telephoned to the bank and asked if the check was good. The cash- fer of the bank informed him that 3ir. Wellborn had enough money on deposit to buy the building. When Mr, Wellborn visits the restaur- ants in the neighborhood he gives the waiters heart disease by pulling out his fat yellow roll and peeling off a $1,000 “P| dill to pay a 80-cent check. Everybody who knows how careless the promoter ts with the change he car- ries around with him believes that he st loet the $1,000 bill on the ferry~boat, though on that day the had only four- if teen of the “ten centurien" in his right hip pocket. besides a dozen or s0 $100 bilia and three or four inches deep of fifties and twenties, Mr. Wellborn was golng to his home In Creston, N.
