' VVillium Cato is another of the great intestate for whose heirs the adminis-trator is lookiug. Cato was no tramp or news vender. Ho was a marine in the service of the United States, and had been one for such a length of time that he had only a vague memory of what he had been before. His comrades had an idea that he was Scotch, and that is all they could toll about him. ne died sud-denly while still in the service, leaving f UNCLAIMED MILLIONS. FORTUNES OF PUB-LIC 'ADMINicVRATORS. Strange Searches for Hr-i- to Large Fortunes lu Brooklyn A Strange IMe appearance The Fanil In Charge of the State Treasurers Keeps Increasing. Speaking roughly there is at the pres-ent time over $.j,000,0()0 in hard cash in the hands of tho various state treasurers in this country awaiting the claim of legal heirs. This large amount has been deposited with tho treasurers from time to time by public administrators. Of this $.1,000,000 the New York state treas-urer has about .$2oO,000, and although he pays out now and then certified claims from the administrative fund it keeps Iteadily increasing in a ratio with the population of tho state. The public administrator of Brooklyn furnishes the following cases from his record books: 1,000 or so he, had saved out of his small pay. Patrick Cresham lived on Third ave-nue, near Forty-sixt- h street, South Brooklyn, and was in good circum-stances, nis wife died in the spring of 1889, and the loss drove him crazy. A week later he committed suicide. He left a good deal of property to which his j little daughter was heiress. His brother, a well to do New York car- - riage builder, was the legal guardian of the little girl, but there happened just then to be in the house a sister of the child's mother. She was on a visit from Ireland, and had arrived just in time to see her sister die. The night of the day Cresham committed suicido the aunt took tho little girl stealthily out of her j bed and out of the honge, went over to Now York, and on the morning follow-- ! ing sailed for Queenstown in the Um-- bria. Mr. Cresham, the uncle and legal guardian, reported the theft to the po-- j lico, and they cabled to Queenstown to have tho aunt arrested on her arrival in that port. Now, it happened that owing to a great storm the Umbria could not put in at Queenstown, and so went di- - rcctly on to Liverpool, where no police were waiting for a handsome lady of the name of Miss Crowe and liar niece. Miss Crowe and trv'3 child are 6till in Europe, and the legal fight has ' not yet been decided. New York Tele- - grain. . Thomas Wilson sold newspapers in Brooklyn's Twentieth ward for a gener-ation. His route was an aristocratic one, comprising such streets as Clinton and Clermont avenues, in which nro the homes of millionaires. Ho peddled his wares in nil sorts of weather, appeared Dii the streets in rain and shino every day nnd far into the night, and even made a feeble at tempt to bravo the fury of the big blizzard of March 12, 1888. lie hud no friends, no confidants, no as-sociations, and he lodged in tho attic of a niiserablo tonomrnt house. One day in the spring of 1889 his legs refused to curry him along his route, and he went 'lor succor and Rhelter to the Brooklyn hospital. Hero he was warned that he had but a short time to live and was told to com-municate with hifl friends, if he had any. Old Tom shook his head negatively and died that night without making a sign. Five bank books were found under lus pillow, showing three or four thou-sand dollars to his credit in different in-stitutions. The administrator could learn nothing about him in the banks, where he had told different stories about him-self. It is thought he was of Swedish origin and that his real name was Nil-eo-not Wilson. THE CASE OP I.ANOIER, Then there was Joseph Langier, a name common enough in the south of France, in Marseilles especially. Langier was also a solitary man, living or, rather, grubbing in an Atlantic avenue garret. He paid the janitor a dollar a month for his miserable room. Ho went out and he camo in, spoko to nobodyand answered cmestions by shaking or nod-din- y his head. One day he went forth for the last time staggered and fell at the next corner, was talrcn into a saloon, thence conveyed in an ambulance to Long Island Collego hospital, where he died alter a few hours. In the pockets of his coat were found bonds, mortgages and bank books worth $17,000 to the owner, also a will drawn up in excellent legal phraseology and written iu a hand. His signa- - ture was affixed to tho will, but it lacked tho names of witnesses. So careful had he been in preparing the instrument that ho affixed an explanatory para-graph, underlined in red ink. In a codi-cil ho revokes tho will, so that he really died intestate. Rumor says Langier's h-- ir is a nephew living in Marseilles, a ibtur' son, whom, if tho administrator ' Vou sr iti I)ad Fix. j But we w.ll cure you if you will pay us.

Knowing that a local election waa go-- big on in Grenada, Miss., 1 asked a col-ored man, whom I found cutting wood about four miles out of town, why he wasn't at the polls. "Wall, I doan' dun take a heap of in-- terest in dat lechshun," he answered. "But why?" "Right smart o' reasons why, sah.

"S'posin' I git up to de polls an' Mars Jessup lays his hand on my shoulder an' Bays; 'Yo' olo black Reuben, whar's dat Curiosity Rewarded. An amusing instance of southern per-severance under difficulties recently came to our ears. A young lady from Louisi-ana had heard much of Mrs. Leslie Car-ter's beauty, and fearful that she would not see the new star in the south the en-terprising girl made friends with a habitue of the Ladies' Athletic club, which adjoins the Berkeley Lyceum, where Mrs. Carter is rehearsing, and coaxed the latter to find out if there was any secret communication between the buildings. Curiosity found a way, but a very small one, and the girls crawled throngh it and obtained an entrance to the Berkeley while rehearsing was on. Miss Entete (this isn't her real name) enjoyed the breaking in more than she did the rehearsal. She says Mrs. Carter is being couched by Bolasco, even to the least inflection of her voice. The ad-mirable points about her are her abun-dant blonde hair and her dressing. She wore a neglige one of those famous negliges of shimmering blue which fitted her form like a mold. The two girls staid through about half an hour of "Did I say that right, Mr. Belasco?" and "Is that the way you want me to do it?" with which Mrs. Carter interlarded the dialogue of the play, and then crowded back to the Athletic rooms and washed the dust from their hands. New York Cor. Now Orleans TUues. An Tely Habit. I wonder what saccharine or succulent ' qualities inhere in wooden toothpicks that so many persons cling so persistently to those unlovely little instruments long after they have performed the service for which they were designed. On any ele-vated railway train one is sure to see one or two men with toothpicks protruding from their lips, as if to advertise to the ' j world a recent breakfast. Not all of those who make this exhibition are ill dressed or boorish, and one is left to in vain why a particularly private portion of the toilet is thus thrust upon public attention. New York Star. It lit Hard. "Why don't you shave yourself and save time and money?" "Because I can't bear to cut an old ao quaintance." Life. Prena Iho Hutton and Get Muntard. Everybody, no doubt, has long thought that there was still a great deal to be ; desired in tho matter of cruetstands pepper bottles with brassy tops that come off when you turn them upside j down, and shower pepper in shoals upon j yonr underdone mutton: vinegar bottles i minus the vinegar: another bottle with a thick sedimenty something inside which you are informed is "Worsted sauce," and a mustard pot. At last, however, invention has stepped in and patents have been gone for, and there is a real new thing called the patent auto-matic mustard pot. It is a very inge-nious contrivance and is made in an electroplate or nickel silver case. It has a sliding piston, which you press, and then the mustard cornea out, just as much as yon dosire, and keeps fresh and nice for qnite a while. New York Jour-nal. ' ' |
