LITTLE NEWYORK WOMEN HOW THEY EARN THEIR LIVING IN THE STREETS. A Queer Interview Infantile Croat ures Who are Prematurely Wise- Pathetic Instances of Child Wisdom in the Metropolis. [Copyrighted] New York, Sept 10.—Tho little women of New York are a' old in experience and manner in many initanoes as the stalwart girls and full-grown young women of lesser towns. There is stmething about the high pressure rat*' at which they live that sharp ens the faculties of tho children. Old fashioned girls are tie rule in the slums. A few days ago I cam* in on a Long Branch boat and was cutting through a small and ex ceeding disreputable street in the lower part of town when I was brought to a stop by a plank stretched-across tho street from a truck to the door of a warehouse. On this plank sat three little girls. None of them were over t> years or under 4. Their clothes were ragged, but there was a certain effort at adornment, and one of them was survey ing her feet with great complacency. She wore an enormous pair of bronze gaiters, which had evidently been picked out of an ash barrel up town. They were at least five sizes too large for the child, but sho had tied them on with string! and bits of colored ribbon and was as proud of them as though they fitted perfectly. One of the other girls bail a bottle in her arms. which she was nursing tenderly. There was a sort of a burlesque gown on the bottle and the neck was surmounted by a queer little imitation of a hat, twisted out of common feed straw. “You’d better step light,” she said to mo rn a warning tone, “er y'll wake the baby.” “What baby?” I asked. “My baby,” said She child, solemnly. “Is that it in your arms?” “Yep.” “my dolly’s in hard luck.” “Haven’t you a better one than that?” “I had a tonier one,” said the child, “but me fadder kum home wid a jag on Thurs day night and kicked the lung out of it, so I adopted this one.” “My dolly,” interrupted the girl with the bronze shoes, “’s in hard luck. Her legs is broke so bad she can’t breathe, and I’m leaving her home till sho gets well again. The hot weather knocked her plumb suly.” They went on talking in a quiet and con fidential way about their dolls until I had climbed over the plank and got out of hear ing. The most amazing solemnity pre vailed. That is a feature of half the chil dren in town; they are everything but hap py. The more knowing among them do all sorts of manual labor and do it well. I know of a newsdealer on Broadway, just below Fulton street, who had taught a little girl to sell patters rapidly and effectually, al though the ohild is scarcely able to talk. She is a chubby-faoed girl, and her hands are scarcely big enough to. pick up two pen nies at a time. She sits in the middle of the stand surrounded by papers, with a cigar box full of change in her lap. Her big bright eyes run from face to face, and when a customer comes along she beams on him with unmistakable friendliness and wel come. He selects his papers, hands her the com, and she thrusts her chubby fists into the box and counts out bis change with rapidity and unerring precision. Very often the novel sight starts a line of custom ers, and half a dozen men will gather around looking and larking with the little girl. She never loses her liead, however, and she probably makes as much money for her mother as any 5-year-old in town. One day last week I was on the point of buying some [tapers from a big news-stand near the elevated road when a big, benev olent and good-natured dry goods man with whom I have a slight acquaintance came along and seizing me by the arm said: ‘‘You’re not going to spend money here with the Midget close by, are you?” “The Midget? What Midget?” “The Indianapolis Midget.” “Never beard of the lady.” “Come along and I’ll present you,” said the jolly old merchant, excitedly. I knew him well enough to know that he" was never interested in anything but a good cause, and I walked around the corner with him, do spite the fact that I war in a hurry. In front of a twnk was a small stand sheltered by a pretty striped awning, neatly painted and scrupulously neat. A small brass railing which ran along the edge of the stand was polished till it shone like the sun The daily papers were laid out in orderly row under paper weights that wore decorated with the initials “I. M,” indicat ing, doubtless, the Indianapolis Midget. Be liirifi the counter was the child herself. Sho is 7 years old. Her hair was arranged in glossy braids and she wore a big white apron over her dark frock. A pencil half as long as her arm was balanced behind her ear, and her dark little face was twisted into a business-like scowl ns she talked to a small find adoring negro of about her rbvn age who was looking at her with big and awe stricken eyes. p “all thk morning PAPERS 1” “D’you deliver all the papers, Hankie, like y said y’ would?” “Ah did, Mis’ Midge, fo’ Gawd; ah did, ah did." "1 think," said the Midget, tapping her teeth reflectively with the pencil anil look mg very luu'd at her slave, “that yer lyin' like rats.” “No. no, missy, swear fo’ Gawd,” pro tested the boy violently. “Done gone leave ura all.” “All right,” said the small mistress of the establishment, apparently well sat isfied at last that he was hilling the truth. “Here’* Kumfln’ for you.” (She selected a very big and very red stick of cuudv from the Uttte showcase at the nuttier cud of the stand and lianded It hi *!• small African with a smile that caused him tu show two Mlitterlng rows of Ivories m return. Then tLe Imijr seated himself on the sidewalk at a discreet distance and be gan u> reduce the risible supply of stick i**dr white he followed **env lunveaumt of his small mistress with his big black eyes. My friend, the merchant, bustled up, and the girl jumped up aud down happilv at seeing him. “Hello," she said, seizing his out stretched hand in both of hers and squeez ing it while she smiled up at him, “Good mawning, my dear,” said the mer chant, cheerfully, “how’s business?” “Great,” said the girl, selecting the pa pers we indicated, rolling them up deftly, binding them with elastic and handing them over while she made the change rapidly. We talked a moment with tho child arid then w-ent down town. “Be sure you always buy vour papers of her,” said the amiable philanthropist. “She has the making of a good woman in her.” “YV here did her extraordinary name come from ?” || POINTERS FOR HER DISSOLUTE TIRE. “She was shipped from New York to In dianapolis as baggage. A tag was tied to her shoulder and she was sent through in charge of the train hands to her aunt there after her mother died suddenly here. The aunt refused to receive the little waif and she was returned to the freight depot. There I saw her Sitting on a trunk and cry ing bitterly. There were several New York men coming East that day. and wo chipped in and brought the child with us. A col lection was taken up on the train, and it panned out so well that wo had enough to buy her a stand and stock it well. My wife found her a boarding place in tho family of our butcher, where she pays $2 a week. She seldom clears less than $6 a week, and we have taught her how to keep accounts. I never met a 15-vear-old girl who know half as much as the Midget—and, by tho way, the name was bestowed on her by tlie West ern newspapers when she went out there as freight. It has clung to her ever since, and I have advised her to use it from business motives, as she may as well profit by her notoriety; then, if she develops into some thing better than a newsgirl, she can use her own name and no one will ever identify her with the Indianapolis Midget.” Anotbbr instance of the extremo maturity of New York’s little girls occurs to me. A very dissipated and rakish-looking old man was confronted by his ragged daughter on the corner of Sixth avenue and Twenty-first street just as he was steering unsteadily for his home. The girl, who was between li and 7 years old, looked at him contemptuously. “You—make—me—tired,” she said with heavy emphasis on every word. “I’m feelin’ a little queer, Nellie—” “Yer fullernagoat again,” she said. “I know it.” “Well, what time a day is this here fur giftin' a load onto y’u? YVhy can’t, y’u git booze at night an’ on the deal sneak like Beezy OlGilhgan’s fadder? Ho gits an’ele gint drunk on an’ comes in whin every wan’s in lied. You come ’omo by daylight. No one objiks t’ yer gittin’ chuck, but y’ oughter do it like agen’leman.” Worldly logic that, for a child who should still be in the nursery. Blakely Hall. WOMEN MILLIONAIRES. Some Interesting Points About the Richest Woman In the World. [Copyrighted.] It is settled, I suppose, that the Dona Isa dora Cousiuo is coming to New York as soon as the season is fairly opened this winter. If she does, the city will have a sensation, and one of a sort that it appreciates. The Chilian money queen never does anything by halves. She proposes to take a house, furnish it as few houses in New York have ever been furnished, and it is in the air that she means to show New Yorkers how un limited cash can entertain. She can teach a lesson or two in that art if she tries. She is a learned professor, and money fetches New York every time. Tho Sonora Oousino is something more than the richest woman in the world? She has one of the biggest fortunes held by either sex, possibly the largest on tho West ern continent. She is, unless the last season or two has faded her greatly, something of a beauty. She is a great deal of an eccen tric and not a little of a genius. She has astonished pretty nearly all the capitals of Europe in their turn, and she cannot rest on her laurels without astonishing New York too. Tho Dona Isadora is not much short of 40, but she looks younger. She is rather above medium height and dresses to look tall. Her figure is graceful, but her big dark eyes are her taking feature. Her skin is a Spanish brown with a ilash of red under it, and she has quantities of dark hair. She is one of the best dressed women in the world in an imperial sort of way, and with a daring use of color. I doubt if there is anywhere a private jewel collection to equal hers. She wears more stones at a tune than is usual with people who haven’t so many and who live in North American latitudes. No more clover business woman exists. She inherited cattle, married mines, and now, a widow, has gone into about every money-producing enterprise in which Chili, the most progressive of the Southern re publics, has engaged. She is the biggest real estate owner in Santiago and Valpa raiso. She has furnished the capital for manufacturing enterprises. She has started art [lotteries. She has built a railroad and runs two lines of iron steamships. South American fortunes are hard to estimate, but many people have nut hers above $200,000,- 000. Money multiplies fast in her hands, for her eve is everywhere. There was a young man, a son of one of her cousins, I believe, whom she sent to a New England college some years ago. South Americans, by the way, have a fancy for New England schools. The young man was fairly clever, very good looking, not at all studious, had plouty of money, and was a great favorite. Shortly after the beginning of a term he left school abruptly, and was sent abroad, so the tulo went,l>y a whim of Ins rich relative. Some magnificent rubies that she hail many times coveted had been offered for side, and had gone on the market without her knowledge. He was to hunt out their buyer, trace the gems, and get them for her at any price. The rubies were some of it odd how the ox-Empress' gems, laces and poodle dogs turn up every where -and they were in Now York tieforo he reache 1 the other side. A would-lte swell dame had paid a good many thousands for them, and tho scion of the Southern PrinoetM post**? Isv-k again, got an introduction to the house, flattered the gopd lady, told her the predicament ho was in, offered her a choice of all the jewelers’ stores in creation at anv figure, wnl, in slant, got the ruble*, delivered them in person, and saved his l>r<w| >ects in life and Dona Isadora's good grace*. Ttiere are two slender graceful daughters, somewhere in their teens, who will coma out in New York, and high times are ahead. Mother and girls *Jak the purest English as ail Chilians do. Tim senora is a tropi cal creature, and if all tales *if her are true subject to cyclones. ... Thei eis not another woman in America wb bos mouey la hsr own name te ooni isuxi with the Duo* Isadua s. Utoush rich THE MORNING NEYY'S: SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1887. ! women are not few. Hetty Green is credited i with being the most of a capitalist of her ; sex in the United States. Her wealth would I foot tip from $ 35,000,000 to $40,000,000, I suppose. She inherited 515,000,000, married $1,000,000 and has made the rest by shrewd financiering. Another clear-headed woman is Miss Elizabeth Garrett, who must have $20,000.01)0 or more and who knows how to take care of it. She was her father’s priv ate secretary for years and understands Baltimore and Ohio stock as well as any body. Miss Garrett is not as rich as she would be if she were less charitable. She never flings money away recklessly, but expends large sums with lUserimination and good sense on educational and philanthropic projects. Mrs. Mark Hopkins is richer than Miss Garrett, though her neighbors, the vill age folk, are less enthusiastic about her than they used to tie liefore she put up a high fence or Chinese wall about that $2,000,000 Si lace of hers at Great Barriugtoii. Mi's. opkins is not worth less than $80,000,000 or #25,000,000 probably, and she too is noted for her charity. Mrs. Emily 11. Moir, the heir of the Morgan property, pays the larg est personal assessment of any woman in New York, and Mrs. Sarah H. Green comes next her. Mrs. John Jacob Astor has a tidy sum of from $7,000,000 to $9,000,- 000. Rich New York widows estimated at from $1,000,000 to $5,000,000 abound, and there are some hundreds of unmarried women under 80 who have from SIOO,OOO upwards in their own name. Mrs. W. E. Dodge has invested her money well and it amounts to $5,000,000 perhaps. Commodore Vanderbilt’s widow lias something more than doubled what her husband left her. Mrs. Robert Goelet and Clarkson Potter’s widow are not poor. Miss May Callender must be worth a million. The Misses Leary and the Misses Fnrniss, of Fifth avenne, have large incomes. Miss Adele Grant,who has been starring it with Miss YVinslow for foil, has $700,000 or more. Mrs. Langtry has got above the SIOO,OOO mark. Mrs. John Minium has money. Miss Grace 11. Dodge has a fortune of her own. Mrs. Frank Leslie must have $1,000,000. Mrs. Hicks-Lord has several millions. There are some married women in New York who have private fortunes. Mrs. Whitney has plenty and will have more. YVhitelaw Reid got his money with D. O. Mills’ daughter and Mayor Hewitt his with Peter Cooper’s daughter. A rich New Englander is Mrs. Sutton, of Peabody, Mass. Her husband left her $2,- 000,0110. She has made it not far from $6,- 000,1 UK). She has not hod a happy life, for tho one son on whom she set her heart broke his collar bone a half dozen times falling from ottomans and chairs, and finally broke his neck falling from a Shetland pony. Sho has endowed n magnificent reference library room in the Peabody library, founded by George Pea body, and her boy’s picture framed in gold hangs on its walls. Mrs. Frederick Lenoir, ot' Springfield is another rich Bay State woman, owning perhaps $4,000,001). Agassiz’s daughter, Mrs. Shaw, ( of Boston, is made wealthy by her husband’s gifts, and supports great numbers of free kin dergartens. One of tho wealthiest Baltimore dames is Mrs. Hutton, daughter of Thomas Winans. Sho has $20,000,000 or more. Mrs. Sarah McEvoy, of Chicago, has half that, per haps. Mrs. C. H. McCormick, of Chicago, has about as much. The Drexel sisters, of Philadelphia, have some millions apiece, and the widow of Tom Scott, the railroad President, had $4,000,- 000 or $5,000,000 left her by her husband. There are dozens of rich Philadelphia widows and some good catches among the heiresses. Miss Ellen Erben, for instance, has a big income. Miss Lilian Reeves and Miss Helen Rives, late settlers in the City of Brotherly Love, have not loss than $1,500,- 000 apiece. Mrs. Disston has a great deal of money. Washington is not a city of rich women,’ but there are several who have $1,000,000, some who have more than that sum. It would be hard indeed to find a city in the United States which has not women whose property lists reckon up good sums. Major Burke’s wife, of Now Orleans, and Mrs. Nicholson, editor and owner of the Picayune, of that city, are rich Southern ladies, and Miss Celeste Stauffer, to whom Tilden left SIOO,OOO, is one of the prettiest anti brightest young women of that city as well. • Mrs. Alvinza Heyward, wife of the San Francisco capitalist, lias $3,000,000 which her husband gave her in her own name. Her married experience has been a checkered one. She married Heyward no long tune after he began life with SIOO and his free dom suit, and was left behind in Minnesota while her husband went West to look for gold. She did not hear from him for a num ber of years, and it is reported that he said she never would have hjard from him if he had not struck it rich. He got down to his last dollar, borrowed from Flood or some of the bonanza men to put into a mine that for some reason he had faith in, struck pay dirt, divided up handsomely with his benefactor and all went merry, though some of the younger men have heaped up bigger piles since. Heyward doesn’t lie lieve in extravagance, so he launched his son with $50,000 only when he catne of age. There are a number of cattle queens who have made money. Mrs. Henry C. Meredith, of Cambridge City, has inherited a famous stock farm from her husband, who in turn received it from Gen. Sol. Meredith, his father. Mrs. Meredith is an authority in her business, and was the only woman present at the annual meeting of the Indi ana Shorthorn Breeders’ Association at In dianapolis a few weeks ago. Miss Annie Thomas, of Billings, Mo., has a big ranch and two [laying mines near Butte City. Mrs. Rogers, the Texas ranch woman, has made a million. Mrs. Bishop Iliff Warren, who got her money from Iliff, the Colorado cattle king, is a wealthy woman. Hho man ages her ranch personally and shows excel lent business judgment. I ’rima donnas one takes for granted. Patti gave a million francs to M. de Caux to get rid of him. Lucca gave a good bit to her husband. Nilsson pensioned llouzeaud, and Gerster has pensioned Uarilini. Eliza Putnam Heaton. President Cleveland on Mixed Schools. Mr. G. A. Sullivan, editor of the Mont gomery (Va.) Democrat, recently wrote to President Cleveland inquiring m regard to the truth of a report that Mr. Cleveland, while Governor of New York, approved a bill authoring mixed schools in that State. In replying to Mr. Sullivan’s inquiry, President*Cleveland writes: “Tho only bill that I know of being passed and ap proved of on that subject, while I was Gov ernor, was one affecting the city of Now York, and had precisely the contrary ef fect —that is, the pur|mw* and object was to retain the colored schools separate anil dis tinct from those for the whites. Mr. Nelson J. Wnterbury, of Now York city, I think, drew the bill, and Prof. Rosin, superintendent of colored schools, and Rev. Mr. Derrick, bath of New York city advocated it strongly. Tho school liourd of New York city had determined to consoli date their schools with the white schools, and the bill tAok it out of the control of tho board, so that it should not Isi done. It was strongly urged liefore me that separate schools were of much more lioneflt to the colored people than mixed schools. I ap proved the bill, and I suppose in the city of New York colored schools are separately maintained to-day by virtue of its provis ions. I have thus given you all I remember on the subject of your inquiry. I have been much surprised at hearing before the receipt of yotu' letter tliut tiiis mutter has been so grossly misrepresented ” Frightful Waste. Consumption carries off its thousands of victims every year. Yes, thousands of human lives are being wasted that might lie saved, for the fact is now established that consumption, in lU early stages, is curable. Dr. Pierce's "Golden Medical Discovery" will, if used in time, effect a permanent cure It has no equal as a rernedv f<ir broD chltfs, coughs and colds. Its efficacy lias been proved m thousamU of oases. Ail di ug ssist* CHEAP ADVERTISING. ONE CENT A WORD.
