I Bin a man of canity. It has been
Asserted that I have u certain pompos
i'y about me. While I ma u bin h.-ior

R- wi"' any softness toward the other
'.'S.
My position was thus when the court-!
were closed for the summer season of
a certain year mid I retired to my usual
resort on the si-nshore.
It may not strike you as quite con
sistent when I say that a few days aft
er my arrival a woman appeared win
caught my attention. She was regis
tered as '-Mrs.," and it was umb-rvtood
that her huhbund would appear later.'
She was handsome, well formed, re
fined in ail outward respects n lady.;
I did not have speech ttith her, but II
admitted to myself that hut for my dig-
nily and position I tnlyht have at-;
, tempted what is legally known as a
mild llirtatioti.
People wceuied to understand Intui
tively that a Judge of special sessions
did not caro to hear about trifle, and
fio no gossip was poured into my ears.
However, I learned later on seven or
fifth t rooms were robbed inside of a
week. The robberies occurred by day,
and pom-rally at meal times, and the
plunder was money and Jewelry. In
rue eafe the loss a mounted to $rttO, In
another to ?S0), in a third to over $1,
000. After the first complaint had been
made the landlord set a watch, but In
the face of that three more rooms were
plundered and a confiding guest who
kept several hundred dollars in his
trunk instead of the hotel safe found It
missing one day after luncheon. Then
two detectives were employed, and all
the 230 guests felt .themselves under
espionage, if not suspicion all but I.
How could landlord, detective or any
one else suspect the integrity of Judge
Coke?
The robberies ceased as suddenly ns
they had begun, but for reasons known
to themselves the detectives decided
to search the baggage of certain guests,
one of whom was the handsome Mrs.
r.Iank. I heard nothing of this at the
time, but ns I left my room on the day i
of the search I encountered the lady
witb a Ptrfall package in her hand and
she frankly said to me: hen she rushed back into my memory
"Judge Coke, I have not had the I t I'Ound. The landlord and the de

I may have mnil-rt as 1 hfmd my

lost none of my dignity, and of course
I did not make it an excuse for any
extended conversation.'
1 met her on the street, a full block
from the hotel, upon my return, but
as I handed her over the receipt I
merely raided my hat again and f-poke
of tut.' weather.
The search was made quietly and
with the consent of the guests,' but. it
proved futile.
The next three days passed without
excitement, and I took it into my head
to order a carriage and be driven out.
It has always been my opinion that a
jinlne looks well as he rides out in
a landau with head erect end firms
folded.
I was being bowled along the boule
vard conecting my resort with one
five miles away, with my driver fully
conscious of my dignity and impor
tance, when a parasol was waved at
me from the sidewalk, and I made out
a lady at the end of it. More than
that, I made out Mrs. Blank, who said
to me as my carriage halted at the
curb:
"Judge Coke, were you going to drive
over to Surf City?"
"I am on my way there, madam," I
replied as my hat came off at the
proper angle.
"Then then" .
"What is it, madam?"
"I hare a friend over there who is
ill, and there is no train for two hours.
I know it is presumption on my part,
but"-
"N'ot at all, madam. Let me assist
you in. I will have you there in three
quarters of an hour, and the obligation
will be mine."
There were no languishing smiles,
no googoo eyes on my part. Indeed, I
think that most of our conversation
during the drive referred to the law di
rectly or indirectly. I was a bit sur
prised that she should ask to be set
down on the public square instead of
at her friend's house, but dignity for
bade me even to raise my eyebrsivs.
She liowed and returned thanks; I
raised my hat and murmured. "Don't
mention it." and we parted.
My position demanded that I should
forget lier as soon as possible or until
I met her at breakfast next morning,
and I had fairly succeeded when I re-
turned to the hotel two hours later.

Tlioso who are fond of computing the
manner in which the wealth of rich
men expands after the first nucleus
has been obtained are estimating that
in the course of live year.; at the rate
o? increase noted for the past five
years J. 1'ierpout Morgan will stand in
the list at the bead of which is John
I. Kockefeller and in which are to be
found the names of the Yauderbilts,
Russell Sage, the Lewissohns, the As
ters, the Goelets and a few others,
says Holland, the New York corre
spondent of the Philadelphia 1'ress.
If it is a race for a supremacy in the
field of individual possessions, neither
Mr. Morgan nor any other one will be
able to cover that vast ppace between
which are the boundaries which sepa
rate John I). Rockefeller from every
man of enormous wealth. Not even
Andrew Carnegie, who appears to be
bestowing iiis income in philanthropies
rather than his principal, cau reach out
his hand and bridge the space that sep
arates him from Mr. Kockefeller. All
sorts of estimates as to Mr. Rockefel
ler's wealth have been made, some
placing him first in the list of the
world's rich men, others assigning him
to a place second to that of the Roths
childs or to the South African diamond
prince.
It is possible now to report, on the
authority of one whose relations are
almost as Intimate to Mr. Rockefeller
as those of any other one except his
brother and son. that Mr. Rockefeller
Is beyond any doubt the richest indi
vidual in the world, at least in the
world of civilization and commerce,'
and also to report approximately by
what figures his wealth is reckoned.
This friend in the course of a conver
sation of unexpected frankness and
without the imposition of any confi
dence Paid with emphasis that Mr.
Rockefeller's wealth is double that of
any other citizen of the United Hates,
that his yearly income is fully the
?qual if "the vast wealth William II.
Vandorbilt bequeathed to bis two elder
sons, that he can put his hand on more
cash in a day than Russell Sate can in
9 month and that his wealth is incretis
Ins so rapidly that the increase alone
within ten years will reach ?l,on0.000.-
XKt.
This friend reports Mr. Rockefeller
as possessing $t.a.00,000 par value of
Standard Oil stock or certificates. On
1 4 per cent basis that stock today is
n-ortlt nearly S."",00.lKXi,(HM). Mr. Rocke
feller's income from that alone has for
some years averaged $10,000,0s0, a lit
tle less than fl.0ofi.Ou0 a week. His
aggregate income for some years has
biH'n approximately $7o.00O,(K)0. His
nvestments in railroads, mines and in
dustrials yield him in the neiphltor
hood of ?20,00,000 a year, and while
lie is not a large owner of real estate
from which rentals are obtained, but
chiefly of real estate necessary for rail
roads and mines, yet his income from
(hose properties must be considerably
in excess of $l,Ho,0ofl a year, although
this estimate was confessedly .guess
work. An interesting side lisht upon Mr.
Rockefeller's character was furnished
luring the course of this conversation.
It was said that as soon as the anti
rebnte, the Interstate commerce laws
wd the antitrust laws were passed
:very officer of the Standard Oil cor
poration was instructed neither to ask
aor to receive any rebate nor to seek
iny- special favors.
The corporation is invulnerable to
lttack under the Elkins or any other
aw excepting that if it should be call
?d upon for such a statement of its
rendition as the publicity law recently
Kissed by congress puts it in the dis
;retiou of the government to demand,
.here might be some difficulty in ob
alning a report' that would be satis
factory to the government. Certainly
10 statement of the amplitude of detail
vhich characterized that recently made
wblie by the United States Steel cor
wration would be given.
This richest citizen of the world, even
lis most intimate friends look upon as
iphhinxlike or masked. Every other
ne great in affairs, even Mr. Morgan,
tbides the questions thnt are asked
concerning his personality, his intel
ect. his methods and his temperament.
The western college professor who
ikened Mr. Kockefeller to Shakespeare
n carrying the human intellect and
ichlevement further nlong toward
shaos than any other had done since
Shakespeare's day may have exagger
ited in that comparison, but if he had
laid Mr. Rockefeller resembled that
rofound Intellect in the mystery which
mrrounds his personality, his methods
)f thought, in his ability to R emain
lumb while one inquires, in his capac
ty for self schooling, self scanning and
iclf content, the comparison might not
lave been farfetched.
The very men, themselves of many
nillions, who speak admiringly and
JTonderingly of wealth approximating
fl.000.000.oo0 which has been aecumu
ated since 1S00, also say that they do
lot understand Mr. Rockefeller, lie Is
i mystery, and in the character of Ids
utellect and achievements, in the orlg
uallty of his conception and operation,
cannot be judged by the standards
'Jiat are applied to other men.

The President to riay Cricket.
President Roosevelt is about to take
up cricket as an antidote for listless
ness, says the New Y'ork World. The
sport offers peculiar attractions to a
man devoting the time and attention
he does to sports. For some time back
be has studied overhand bowling and
guarding of wickets, and the Hunting
ton (N. Y.) Manor club, near the presi
dent's home, will see his debut on the
cricket field. Several of his friends
have been instructed by a liritish pro

picked teams of the home club is being
looked forward to by the president and
Lis neighbors. President Roosevelt is
credited with being a good player for a
beginner.

It has been a bull market in wheat,
and more interest Is being taken in
the course of prices by the outside
public. There has been a better ex
port demand, while other favorable In
fluences have remained about as previ
ously noted. There has latterly been
a disposition among western farmers
to sell wheat more freely,' but It will
require a much more general move
ment on their part to bring receipts
up to last year's level. At present the
average is about half as large. South
and Northwest mills are still absorb
ing a good deal o the new crop, for
the hard wheat is of splendid mining
quality. Meantime, the spring wheat
outlook is the subject of much discus
sion with a majority inclined to adopt
a bullish view of the situation and
look for small yields this year in place
if the big crop previously anticipated.
