The death of that grand old lady,
the Baroness Burdett-C'outts, has set
all the world talking about the fam
ous bank from which she acquired
her famous wealth, says Tit-Bits. In
the annals of the commercial world
It Is doubtful If a more remarkable
story can be found than that con
nected with the banking house of
.Messrs. Coutts & Co. Business suc
cess and love and romance are Inter
mingled In a manner stranger than
any fiction ever written.
Almost two centuries ago James
Coutts. the eldest son of John Coutts,
lord provost of Edinburgh, who start
ed the first private bunking house In
Scotland, came to London and became
a partner in the banking firm of
Campbell & Coutts. In the Strand.
.Six years later Campbell died and
James was Joined by his brother
Thomas, the "shabby little man,"
who was once mistaken for a beggar;
who married his brother's house
maid, Betty Starky, ami on her death
espoused an actress, Harriet Mellon.
Three of his daughters became wives
of the Earl of Guilford, the Marquess
of Butte, and Sir Francis ISurdett.
Evidently, Thomas Coutts was a
firm believer In the old saying. "Look
after the pence, the pounds will take
care of themselves."
Meeting an old school friend, he
a.sked him to dinner and gave him
a sumptuous repast. Next day his
friend met Coutts at the bank to ar
range some business accounts and on
balancing them it was found that the
sum of one penny was due to Thomas
Coutts. His friend laughed und said:
"Of course you won't want me to
pay you that penny?"
"Pardon me, I do," Bald Coutts.
"What:" cried his friend; "you give
me a sumptuous dinner one day und
ask for a penny the next?"
"Excuse me," said Coutts. "If I
had not been so particular In getting
niy pence 1 should not have been
able to give any dinner at all, my
friend."
Thomas Coutts had a shrewd eye
to business. Hearing a banker re
late at his own table how a certain
nobleman had asked for a loan of
30,000, which the banker said he
had refused to give him. Coutts set
off to the nobleman's house the mo
ment his guests had retired and re
quested the favor of an interview
with the peer at his bank the next
iday. on the nobleman arriving.
Vuutt at once tendered him 30,000
In notes. The nobleman was sur
prised, and remarked that he found
he only required 10.000 at pres
ent. He begged however, Coutts to
llaoe the remaining 20.000 to the
Tedlt of an account which he forth
with opened with Coutts' bank and
which proved an extremely lucra
tive one. The nobleman shortly af
terwards paid 200,000 into, besides
recommending Coutts' bank to all
Ms friends, Including George III.
who. with Queen Charlotte, honored
Si with their patronage.
Thomas Coutts had a rare knack
of making powerful friends. Coutts"
has been a royul bank since George
HI opened his account there, whilst
among foreign royalties, Louis
Philippe, the king of the Belgians,
the king of Portugal, the shah, the
late empress of Mexico, and the late
Empress Frederick, have all been
customers. The ex-Empress Eugenie
also banks at Coutts', and was often
to be seen entering the doors of the
famous old house. Among thousands
of other notables who banked there
were Lord Nelson, the Duke of Well
ington, Pitt, Fox, Sir Walter Scott,
Lord Maucaulay, Charles Dickens
and Benjamin West. In fact, the old
ledgers contain what would make the
most wonderful collection of auto
graphs In existence.
The treasure boxes, too, some of
which have not been opened since
Burke and Washington were school
boys, could "many a startling tale
unfold." Couttses themselves uo not
know what some of these deed-boxe
contain.
Except lo increase the success of
the bank. Thomas Coutts was quite
devoid of any umbltion; for, while
his brother James became a mem
ber of parliament, Thomas worked
hard amassing a large fortune, anil
was quite content to spend his spare
time at the theater. Matchmaking
mammas spread their nets for him in
vain, until In disgust they termed him
"the most cold-blooded animal that
Scotland ever produced."
What was their amazement, there
fore, when they learned that he had
actually led Betty Starky. his broth
er's housemaid, to the altar? Even
his brother James grew angry. But
Thomas did not care a brass button
for the world's opinion. Betty had
all the virtues he looked for in a
wife ieanliuess. lndunlry, good
humor and modesty of demeanor.
But, although Thomas Coutts con
sidered that great happiness for him
self was to be found in an humble
marriage, he evidently held different
views In regard to his daughters,
who on marrying became respective
ly Lady Francis Burdett, the Countess
of Guilford and the Marchioness of
Butte. The late Baroness Burdett-
Coults was the youngest daughter
of Lady Francis Burdett and the
favorite grand-daughter ui Thomas
Coutts. It was because of the latter
fact that, when his second wife, who
ufterward married the Duke of St.
Albans, died, she left the bulk of her
fortune to Miss Angela Burdett, who
thus, at 23 years of age, became a
millionaire.
By the way, It Is Interesting to note
that No. 1 Stratton street, Piccadilly,
the magnificent mansion of the late
Baroness Burdett-CiHitts, which has
been the scene of the most brilliant
social functions, is probably the only
London house which in modern times
has been Invested and stormed by
the forces of the crown. This came
about in 1810, when Sir Francis Bur
dett. the baroneas' father, having
been Judged guilty of contempt of
the house of commons, determined
to defy and resist its power. By di
rection of the house, tne speaker Is
sued his warrant for the commitment
of Sir Francis to the Tower. Sir
Francis took refuge In Stratton
street, and soldiers had to be em
ployed to enforce its execution. Bur
dett was seized und conveyed to the
Tower, ami there Imprisoned for sev
eral weeks.
The second marriage of Thomns
Coutts was a no less romantic affair
than the first. It has already been
mentioned that the banker sought re
laxation lit the theater, and It was
at Inury Lane that he first became
sniliten with the charms of Harriet
Mellon, who was 4S years bis junior
unit Keneiallv considered to be the
handsomest Audrey on the stage
Surely the romance of his life was
never more extraordinary than In
Harriet Mellon's case. The daughter
of strolling Plavers. she won for her
self a Place amongst the leading
ac tresses of the Georgian era, became
the wife of the richest banker In
London and finally a duchess in the
peerage of Great Britain.
Despite the disparity In age.
Thomas Coutts and Harriet Mellon
lived a very happy married life to
nether for seven years, and It Is a
strlklim proof of the banker's devo
tion to his second wife that he not
onlv allowed her to spend 40.000
chiefly amongst the charities In
which she was Interested but when
he died left to his actress wife all
the wealth of which he was possess
ed.
This was In 1822. and five year?
after the banker's death his widow
married the ninth Duke of St. Albans.
She died In 1837, and, with a noble
ness of mind which proves that the
maxim "noblesse oblige" may actuate
one risen from the ranks ns well as
one born In the purple, she gave back
to the Coutts family the entire estate
she had received from it, her heiress,
as already mentioned, being Baroness
Burdett-Coutts. who has made such
noble use of the fortune she thus ac
quired from the good-hearted Har
riet Mellon.
Many stories, more or less true,
have been told of Thomas Coutts'
eccentricity In regard to dress. The
following, taken from Halph Rich
ardson's book on "Coutts & Co." is
perhaps, the most amusing:
He was visiting the pirlnce of
Wales (afterwards George IV) at the
latter's favorite country resort, the
Pavilion, at Brighton. Early one
morning Thomas Coutts, dressed very
plainly In n brown suit, with brown
cotton stockings that hung loosely
nround his legs, took his seat on a
bench near the Pavilion. A lady
happened to be passing and. seeing
what she Imnglned to be a miserably
poor man In distressed circumstances
seated on the bench, she advancea
towards him and said:
"Mv itood man, you appear to have
better davs. Here's a trifle to
huv vou a breakfast." Whereupon
she handed him a token of 5 shil
lings. Issued by Coutts' bank. Then
she continued: "I will also see that
vou get your dinner, ana snau raise
a subscription for you among my
friends.
Thomas Coutts thanked his bene
factress profusely and said he would
be sure to be found upon the same
bench at dinner time. He then bow
ed nrofoundlv to the lady and re
turned his firmer position on the
bench.
Presentlv the benevolent lady re-
onneared and with her a number of
lady friends.
"Ah!" she cried, "there's my
tressed old man. There sits the
old fellow for whom I asked
charity."
"That!" exclaimed one of
ladles. "Why. that's Mr. "
But before she could Utter
eren t banker's name the Prince of
Wales himself appeared from behind
and. to the amazement of the benevo
lent lndv. slanned the "poor old
man" on the back and shouted:
."Tom Coutts. we have fined

From the Mining Uncord.
With millions nt his command, a
partner with Charles M. Schwab In
some of the greatest mines of the
west and known as "The Nevada
man." because he Is credited with do
ing more than any other to make the
stale containing Goldfield, Bullfrog
and Tonopah famous, John McKane,
to satisfy the cravings of his higher
nature, has turned now to the com
posing of anthems.
When John McKane, fresh from
his training In a bank in his native
town of Dunfermline, Scotland, which
by the way. Is also that of Andrew
Carnegie, went to New Brunswick In
1884. to enter the service of the Koyal
bank of Canada It was not with the
slightest Idea that he would ever be
come a mining kin. There he tolled
as a banker for a decade, till the
fame of Kossland's mines were bruit
ed abroad. Then McKane was stirred.
The New Brunswick town was too
dull for him. He "yearned toward the
skv line where the strange roads go
down," and, taking Horace Greely s
advice, as he phrases It. hit the
trail."
Wont Into Politics.
In 1898 there was a boom In Floss
ind. and Into that boom McKane
lunired. He made many a strike and
In many a claim made money, but
not "big money." Then ne went nuo
politics was a candidate once for
the legislative house of British Co
lumbia and once ran for membership
In the parliament of the Dominion of
anada at Ottawa. On both occasions
he was beaten but beaten only by a
narrow margin and after a hard fight.
)f one of these Instances he tells a
story that well Illustrates the customs
of the mlntnK camns of the west,
It was when I was making the
race In the district or i aie-i .ariooo
savs he. "Mv opponent for the fran
clilses of the miners was a lawyer
named Gallagher, who was known rar
ami wide by the sobriquet of 'Big
Bill.' He was six feet four, that s
wh v.
"There Is nothing small auoui
Y a 1 e-Carlboo. The constituency
stretches from near the northern
boundary line of the I nlted states
far northward Into the uttermost
parts of British Columbia hundreds
of miles. After I had campalgneU
the more settled parts nt this tract
there was still one polling place l
had not visited, the 'Hundred and
Fiftv Mile House.' Neither had Gal
lagher. Peary may have got farther
north than that place, but I doubt
It.
Makes il SMfcli.
However, after days of traveling
through the mountains we arrived;
and free- and Independent electors
were gathered In the biggest saloon
In the place, and. the opening having
fallen to me. I started to deliver my
address. I hadn't twenty words out
when a big miner stood up and mo
tioned to me to stop, turned around
and said:
'Boys, we don't know McKane
and we don't know Big Bill Gal
lagher and we don't care about the
election. Let's cut out the talk, set
tle It by a game of draw and the for
ty-five votes In the camp goes to tne
winner of the first Jackpot."
Well, that was popular. It tooK.
The meeting was adjourned right
there, and had not Big Bill Galiagner
got the first JaiKpot anu me ioriy-
you
five votes he would never have won
his seat In parliament and I would
probably never have seen Nevada."
McKane admits mat wnen ne s noi
reading or fighting he's thinking, and
when the boom days of Hossland be
gan to iiaiten out ana tne siocks or
his holdings uegan to rail ne tnougnr
to some purpose. It was then that
the scientific papers first began to tell
somewhat Incredulous world of tne
probable riches hidden under the
sands of the Nevada desert and to
the hidden poesy In the man's nnture
the call of the lonely wastes of desert
and was to the full as strong as
the lure of gold to his more practical
side. Combined they proved Irresis
tible, and leaving Hossland McKane
struck out lor Nevada.
After some time or storm and
stress in Nevada jicKane nan on
tained sufficient ground to work on,
but found himself lacking In capital
and decided to come to New York to
procure the funds needed to develop
the properties he had acquired.
Charles M. Schwab was at that time
looking toward the west. MCKane
sought him out and after some nego
tiation, the steel capitalist accom
panied the miner to the desert land
to see for himself. Through snow
nnrt rnin ond sleet they pushed their
wav into Tonopah, where McKane
held the Tonopah Extension mine.
Mr. Schwab looked about him, was
soon convinced, and the partnership
then entered Into, In 1903, endures
todav. How many millions Mr.
Schwab has made from the trip tak
en on McKane's advice he only
knows.
Ciot Neconry C'npltal.
With the advent of Schwab Into
the affairs of Nevada started the
stream of capital necessary for the
mining development of the state, and
the result was soon seen In more
stable values of the properties and
the steady stream of gold they pro
duced. Then the McKane fortune
was on a firm basis and a brief vaca
tion was taken from the alkali dust
and the meagre comforts of the
camps by "the Nevada man." For
a holiday he went far into the north
woods of Canada, sunk the man of
action in the dreamer and communed
with nature In her wildest mood.
While there to him came the news

RHEUMATISM
The cause of Rheumatism is a sour, acid condition of the blood, brought
about by indigestion, chronic constipation, and the accumulation in the
system of refuse matter which tae natural eliminative organs have failed to
carry out. This refuse or waste matter ferments ami sours, generating uric
acid w hich is absorled into the blood and distributed to all parts of the body,
and Rheumatism gets possession of the system. One may also be born
with a predisposition or tendency to Rheumatism, because like all blood dis
eases it can be transmitted from parent to child. The aches and pains of
the disease are only symptoms which you may scatter or relieve with lini
ments, plasters, blisters, etc., or deaden with opiates. As soon, however,
as euch treatment is left off or there is any exposure to cold or dampness, or
after an attack of indigestion or constipation, the wandering pains, sore
muscles and joints, and tender places on the llesli return, and the sufferer
finds that he lias merely checked the symptoms while the real cause of the
disease remains in the blood. Rheumatism can never be cured while the
Mood remains saturated with irritating, pain-producing uric acid poison.
S. S. S. cures Rheumatism by driving the cause out of the blood. It thor
oughly cleanses the blood and renovates the circulation by neutralizing the
acids and expelling all foreign matter from the system. S. S. S. stimulates
