New York’s Rich Men. In endeavoring to arouse New York to assert its claims to the world’s fair, the World publishes a list of the mil lionaires of ths metropolis. The World says there are at least 125 citizens of New York whose income equals or exceeds $*50,000 a year. Its list is headed by John Jacob Astor, with William W. Astor second, Jay Gould third and Cornelius Vanderbilt fourth. Wiliam K. and Frederick W. Vander bilt come next. Seventeen ladies are included in the list, Mrs. Moses Taylor ranking first. The World also names no business houses in New York, each of which is rated at $1,000,000 or more by the commercial aeencies. This showing presents an aggrega tion of wealth which is practically in comprehensible. In no other city of the world could an equal number of individuals be found who represent so much money. The Duke of West minster is the richest of Englishmen, and he is rated at $50,000,000. There are at least ten men in New York worth more than that. Mr. Thomas G. Shearman, in an article which will appear in the October Forum, states that there are seventy names in this country which represent an aggregate wealth of $2,700,000,000, or an aver age of more than $37>5 00 > 000 eac b This estimate includes Trinity church New York, which is worth $150,000,- 000. Mr. J. J. Astor is credited with the same amount. Mr. Shearman says the average income of the richest hundred Englishmen is about $4S°> 000, while the average annual income of the richest hundred Americans exceeds $1,200,000. Mr. Shearman believes that one half of the wealth of the United States is owned by 25,000 persons. In no other country has wealth ever been accumulated so rap idly or .the tendency to its concentra tion developed so fast.—Telegraph. the new prize story is eagerly sought for, read with pleasure or dis appointment, is then tossed aside and forgot ten.

Bill Nye claims to have in his pos session a letter written by Pocahontas to her father, the great chief Powhat an. It runs as follows : Webowocomoco, Sunday,1607. Dear Paw—You ask me to come to you before another moon. I will try to do so. When Powhatan speaks his daughter tumbles to the racket. You say that I am too soft on the pale-faced Smith. I hope not. He is a man, and bears a great name. I see that in the future my people must yield to the white man. Our people now are now pretty plenty and the pale-face seldom, but the day will come when the red men will be scattered like the leaves of the forest, and the Smith family will run the entire ranch. Our medicine man, the one we hire by the month and found, tells me that after a time the Powhatan tribe will disappear from the face of the earth, while the Smith will extend their busi ness all over the country, till you can’t throw a club at a yellow dog without hitting one of them. My policy, therefore, is to become solid with the majority. A Smith may some day be chief cook and bottle- holder of this country. We may want to get some measure through thecoun- cil. See? And speaking of measures, you (ell me you have quit drinking in a meas ure. I am glad of it, if it is that peck measure you use to imbibe your fire water from. It is too much of a jag lor aa old man like you. As to loving the gander-shanked pale-lace, J. Smith, I hope you will give yourself no unnecessary loss of sleep nor miss your daily ration of baked dog on that account. He is as homely as a cow-shed struck with a club and has two wives and three pairs of twins in Europe. Fear not, noble dad. Your little Pocahontas has the necessary instinct to paddle her own canoe, and don’t you forget it. Remember me to Brindle Dog and his squaw, the Sore-Eyed Sage Hen, and send me a new dolman and two plugs of tobacco. Ta, ta. Pocahontas.
