New York, Aug. .—John Jacob Astor
the Third, the prospective richest man in
the world, has singularly enough escaped
much obeervation, for the war of the Astors,
like the wars of the Roses, has raged so
fier ely that it has been difficult for New
Yorkers to concentrate their minds upon
any other feature of the family except
which of the ladies shall have the privilege
of calling herself Mrs. Astor. And yet
young John Jacob Astor, or, as he is known
in all of the clubs and drawing-rooms in
New York, Jack Astor, is a man worth
knowing. Men do not like him, women
do. Whether it is because he will some
day be worth a couple of hundred million
dollars or whether it is solely on his own
account I know not. But he is always wel
come in any corner of the room where
pretty girls congregate, and he laughs and
jokes with them as cheerfully as an appren
tice off for a holiday. In personal appear
ance he is tall, being nearly six feet in
hight, and very slim. He has a decided
stoop in his shoulders, a bad complexion
and fishy eyes, hut he possesses, above all
things, the good sense that char
acterizes the entire Astor family,
ana he has done nothing so
far to cause any uneaslnesa
His face is not a strong one. There is no
character in it. His mouth is weak and his
eyes seem to lack ability to concentrate
themselves for a moment on anything. He
would attract no attention in a crowd, not
even for his dress. His clothing is made up
in the latest fashion, but he is not loud in
any sense. To be sure he wears the finest
of clothes, his patent leather boots are the
best in the market, his silk hosiery Is the
richest that money can buy, his
trousers are creased to a nicety,
his white vests and shirts
ere spotless, his Jewelry is of the richest and
finest, and to his credit let it be said that he
does not wear too mnch. He has a pro
fusion of rich neckwear and an assortment
of oanes and hats that fairly rival the col
lection of Bob Garret, but of all this it is no
one’s business.
HE LOOKS LIKE A GENTLEMAN
and acts like one. Everything about him
points to great wealth. Hu horses and car
riages, of all desorptions, are the finest that
money can obtain. His bachelor entertain
ments are on a princely scale. He knows
how to live well and how to gather a Jolly
party about him. Of course expense is of
no moment to him. He must be worth
anywhere now from $5,000,000 to $lO,-
000,1X10 and is the heir to the bulk
of the entire property. He will some day
be the richest man in the world. It is not
at all likely that he will ever find the wolf
at his door, no matter how much money he
may squander. He inherits inanv traits of
the As:or family, except that he has not yet
mastered the cold, indifferent, stony stare
that has been a marked characteristic of all
the male members of the family from the
beginning. He is not a student or lover of
pictures, like his father and cousins,
nut, on the contrary, prefers out
door amusements, dancing and social
gayetios. He is a graduate of Harvard,
and came through that great institu
tion of learning like hundreds < f other men,
by the skin of bis teeth. Hia enemies say
that it was his name and not his brains that
got him through. At any rate he got
through all right, and it may lie because he
is abie to cut such a wide swath in social
affairs that the other young men about
town do not like him. Like ail the jeune
doree he is a member of half a dozen clubs,
but he is not a club-man in atiy sense,
sensibly preferring bis own luxuriant
home. lie has not many friends
among men, and lias never been
heard of in a barroom brawl. This is one
of the things in his favor. He is a shining
light in society ami is always sure to be in
vited to every affair that is going on. He
■pends a good portion of his summer at
Newport, and goes to Europe throe or four
times a year. These European trips huve
not made him any tha less American. No
No one ever accused him of atiglomania,
and his great wealth and p isitlon do not
seem to have turned his bead. There is one
feature of his life that should not be over
looked; he is a practical joker.
MANY BTOKIKS
are told about his pranks and the
inability of his father and mother
to stop him. One of his favorite amuse
ments used to be to keep every sailor and
officer on board his father’s magmflee nt
yaoht in a state of mind bordering o i frenzy.
He did it by little praukish tricks, whicn
might be called practical jokes by all except
the ones who had the pranks played
on them. Once when he and his fa
ther were in the yacht off Newport,
one of tko sailors went forward just as the
tide was shout to turn and leaned over the
bow in order to ascertain whether in swing
ing about the bow would get a scraping
from the cable. Young Astor crept
stealthily forward and suddenly pushed the
sailor, who fell overboard. He was a good
swimmer and was hauled out safely. Jack
Astor thought it was a great joke.
One day the cook in the yacht went to
sleep on the forward deck and the young
man conceived a plan of waking him sud
denly in a novel and dangerous way. He
put a rope around the fellow’s neck, ran the
other end through a pulley block in the rig
ging and began to haul away. When tue
cook awoke, as he did immediately, he
found himself being strangled. It was too
much for the captain to boar and he ap
pealed to Mr. Astor to put a stop to such
cruel pranks.
But those were in the days when he was
young and reckless. He has grown to be a
man, but the fun of the boy often leaks out
at periodical intervals. Another escapade
related of him will have to be taken with a
grain of allowance. It is said that he eut
to Florida once, steamed up a river a id
rented a big house. He invited a large
number of negroes in the neighborhood to
the house and gave them as much cham
pagne as they could drink. He just wanted
to see what effect champagne would have
on a negro. It had a very hilarious effect,
and wa one of the grandest orgies ever
witnessed. But the particulars of that
champagne spree had be6t not be described.
His friends declare that he has toned down
considerably of late and is not much like
the reckless boy of years ago. Anyway, he
has a great deal of fun and trios to extract
as much out of life as possible. He can’t
take his millions with him.
IT HAS BEEN REPORTED
over and over again that young Astor was
to be married. He Las been eugaged “ac
cording to the newspapers" to at least a
score of belles and yet he remains single.
How it Is that he has escaped Cupid’s darts
is a mystery even to his most in
timate friends, for he is partic
ularly fond of the society of womon
end women in turn seem to find him an
agreeable fellow. Of course, he is the great
est catch in this country to-day. His w ife
will some day be the undisputed leader of
Now York society, and, with the eno mous
fortune that he will have at bis command,
she can eut a swath a trifle wider than that
of any other woman iu this country. Be
sides, she will become the possessor of tuo
Astor plate, Jewelry, laces, books, furni
ture, pictures, etc., and, if she be in good
health, the world will look very bright to
her.
It is known that young An tor's moth* r is
very much to his marrying. Why
this is so no one seems to know T..s news
papers have persistently sand that he was to
na. ry the beautiful Mias Willing ot i'hlia-
delpbia. Bhe is of splendid family, and
will have a great fortune in her own
right. Mrs. Astor and the Willing! have
denied this, but the newspapers nevertb<-
less Continue t > couple tin- names of the
young people togethe-. He was said to
oe a i>crsi;eut wooer, but one day he sud
denly disappeared and sei san f•. Europe,
and so the g'jssip ended until he re.urued.
Miss \\ iliing has not been th < only one who
has been said to be e gaged to him. At
le.is; a dozen debutante! of every season
have had the same honor. hen the wed
ding bells do ring it may be depended upon
to be a great affair.
In the meantime young Astor is privi
leged to carry on his pranks as he pleases.
Perhaps ne will lie forgiven, because he is
original m that line, and that is better than
being stupid.
Wasn’t it Heine who said the gods could
not forgive a stupid man 1

SHE WkARa TROUdERa.
Mrs. Kreiger and Her Curious Fashion
of Attire.
From the Sun thancieco Examiner.
“Say, what kind of people are those folks
on the ranch about three miles back ?” askod
a dusty stranger, as he drove into Ban
Pablo yesterday.
‘•There are lots of ranches three miles
back,” answered a resident.
“Well, I’ll tell you what happened to me
and maybe you’ll know the place. I was
driving along about a mile this side of
Pinole and I saw somebody in a blue jumper
shoveling just inside the fence by the road
side. He didn’t pay any attention to me and
landed a shovelful of dirt right in front of
my horse. The horse i eared back, and as
soon as he got quiet I started in to curse the
shovoler. He didn’t pay any attention to
that and I got out to lick him. Well, I
didn’t do it. That fellow just looked into
my face, and if it wasn’t a woman I’ll eat
a house and lot. She wore trousers and a
jumper and a man’s hat, and she was spad
ing up the soil in great shape: but her long
hair was flying ah >ut her head, and her
face was as placid us any grandmother you
ever met.
“Bhe wasn’t a prize beautv by any means,
but—well, you can fancy how a fellow
would feel after swearing and jumping out
of a buggy to lick a woman.”
“Oh, that was Mrs. Kreiger. She always
dresses that way,” said the resident. “I
thought everybody in these parts knew
her.
Mrs. Kreiger has lived on a ranch on the
Ban Pablo road for over fifteen years, and
during that time she has not worn the or
dinary apparel of woman. 80 accustomed
have the people of that vicinity become to
her and her strauge dress that they no longer
notice it.
Hull, Mrs- Kreiger is no woman’s right’s
apostle nor advocate of dress reform. It is
doubtful if she ever even beard of Mrs.
Jenness-Miller or Mrs. Bloomer, aud if you
.mentioned Lady Habberton or the divided
skirt to her she would not know what you
were talking about.
Up to fifteen years ago Mrs. Kreiger wore
skirts and dresses like any other of ber sex.
Indeed, it appears that she had more of
them, and that they were of more varied
forms, textures and colors than are usually
possessed by farmers’ wives.
It was shortly before the change in her
manner of dressing tnat she married Will
iam Kreiger, a thrifty German farmer aud
a widower, and went to live with him on
the ranch.
For awhile thore was absolute peace and
concord between them, but it did not last.
Mrs. Kreiger had just laid in her winter’s
supply of tea gowns, winter dresses and
dinner toilettes, not to mention some ducks
of wrappers, and pretty toun the bills began
to come in.
Crops had not been nU they might have
been, potatoes had goue down Uj cent a
pound, and an epidemic of pip had swept
over the poultry yard. Kreiger did not
mind paying $lO for a poem of red silk, and
a pea-green demi-toilet for sl3 did not
shake him, but when one afier another the
accounts for yellow calico, blue gingham,
and other tokens of vanity and pride were
rendered, he began to grow gloomy and
tacituru, to lose bis appetite aud sleep un
easily. But it was not until the returns
from the milliners came in that he com
plained. After, however, giving the price
of three spring chickens for a darling of a
bonnet, aud a whole sack of turnips fora
mere spot of a straw hat, with some ribbons
and other fixings on it, he ventured to ex
postul ite.
He told how the Mrs. Kreiger that had
t>eeii had worn the same calico dress for
Sundays two vearß, aud bow the same
dress had served as second best for a like
spacu and then lasted at least a like time to
work iu, aud that there was even then
enough to make over for the little girl. He
pointed ant how the paragon that had been
wore the tame hat she had when ho mar
ried her during alt the years of their wedded
life, aud had never breathed a demand for
another.
Mrs. Kreieer stood it meekly for awhile.
Then sue blazed out aud declared that since
he was so stingy about it she would not
give him any more chance to complain
about her dresses. Then sue made a dread
ful vow never to wear dresses again.
And she hasn’t.
The bright-Uued garments were packed
away iu two trunks, and they are there
yet.
The Kreigers are well off now. They
have a fine ranch of eighty or one hundred
acres and money in l ank. More who know
them say that Kreiger is worth at least
$20,000. Mrs. Kreiger during ail these
years has kept house and helped on the
farm, in men’s garments. Her usual cos
tume is a duck “jumper” and a pair of her
husband’s worn-out trousers.
She is not proud aud works in the field as
well as her husbaud. Naturally she does
not g > into socioty muob. In fact, she is
rather retiring. She has few, if any, visi
tors, and never goes to town. When she
warns the butcher or any other tradesman
to call for an order she hangs out a flag in
I the road. This signal they all understand
and drive to the house to find what is
wanted.
An Examiner reporter drove out to the
Kreiger ranch the other day. It is about a
mile from Biuole, on the left side of the
road. The farm house is back several hun
dred feet from the highway, an avenue bor
dered by poplars leading from the road to
the door. The house is a little white cot
tago, The place is not particularly tidy,
and there appeared to be nothing living
about it but a vicious yellow dog. Just
inside the doorway, however, a strange
figure was seated. It was Mrs. Kreiger.
Bhe appeared to be about 45 years old and
was engaged in some knitting or similar
work. She wore her customary jumper and
a pair of trousers patched in various places
with pieoes of grain bags.
Bhe was not disturbed at all by the visit,
but merely ran her hand through her
tousled hair and indicated that she did not
speak English.
Whether she could not, or merely did not
care to. she didn’t, and presently she went
about her housework without even a second
look at her \ l-itor.
The neighbors say thev have frequently
expostulated with her for her outlandish
garb, but she only answered that she had
made her vow and did not propose to
break it.

Our connections for a most complete and successful Fall
Millinery opening are now completed, and our agents in
London, Paris, Lyon, Basle and Creefeld are sending daily
invoices and samples of novelties exquisite and beautiful
beyond description. Our orders for Velvets and novelties
in Ribbon have already been given, and the looms are now
turning out goods which in richness and beauty will not be
excelled anywhere north. Our Pattern Round Hats and
Bonnet opening will be the grandest ever seen in this coun
try and will comprise designs from Virgot, Viecomte, Lud
wig, Russet and other artists from London and Paris.
