"Patrick Galvin, ,wub Went to, Alaska-

Poor, Is Now a Orleans.

Philadelphia, Nov. 23.-A man whose
partner made $25,000,000 out of the Klon-
dike gold fields, and who is credited
,with'having made twice as much him- I
sfeli', is in this city. His name is Pat-
rick Galvin. One year and six months .
ago he was a poor man. He now ranks
among the multi-milionalre kings, not
only of the United States, but of the
world. Heis here on business, and has
been spending much of his time in the
East. He came to this city to have ai
.very small amount of his gold dust
turned into coin. He is stopping at the
Hotel Walton. ‘

He appeared at the Philadelphia Mint ,
Monday morning and was received by
Superitendent Kretz. Mr. Galvin said
that he Was a little short of money,
and that he had some gold which he]
had dug out of the Klondike mines,
and added that he wished it turned into
money as soon as possible. ° ‘

, His gold was dust, nuggets, and ma
granulated condition. It weighed hi the
neighborhood of five hundred ounes,‘
and proved to be of the finest quality. ,
Its value was estimated, and Cashier
Murphy was authorized to pay $4,018.51.

ing place the Klondike milionaire was
closeted with the superintendent in his
private office. .

Mr. Galvin said (he had been a news-
paper man, had worked on papers in
the West,vand shortly before going to
Klondike was engaged in an editorial
capacity, on the Helena Independent,
the largest paper in Montana. Over
‘four' years ago he Went to Alaska and
settled in Forty Mile, a city a little less
than one hundred miles distant from
what is now Dawson City. There he
took up the hardware businessand re-
mained until the gold craze struck the
country a. little over a year ago.

He sold out his business at once, and
with what small capital he could gather
started for the gold fields. His wife
was with him, and they made the trip
together. At that time he had no. part—
ner, but went with a party of nine
prospectors from Forty Mile. Mrs. Gal-
vin was the first woman to enter the
gold fields.

"Claim 39, out of which I made the
most money, I' paid $10,000 for,” said
Mr. Galvin. “During the past six
months I have taken out gold which I
.value at over one hundred times that
amount. I am now in the possession
of many claims, and have working un-
der me between six and seven hundred
men. Not one of them receives less
than $15 per day, and the bosses re-
ceive $25. I had a partner. I recently
bpught him out. Two years ago I
loaned, him enough to buy a stove. He
is now worth $25,000,000. Any man can
go to Klondike and make a living. No
man should go, however, with less than
$1,200, for he has to take his own pro.
visions with him. Dawson City new
numbers over ten thousand inhab—
itants. It has a theatre, a church, and
a number of large stores. I own a store
there which cost $200,000. It is. built of
logs, and is forty-eight feet wide and
twice as long.-. It is not very beautiful
to look at, but it is very warm and
comfortable. In a. few weeks I am go-
ing with my sister and wife to County
Derry, Ireland, Where my parents live.
.1 have not seen them for twenty-five
years. I am going to make them com-
fortable for life.

“When I return I am going to Klon-.
dike again, and expect to reach there
about the middle of May.”

Mr. Galvin is a thin, twiry man,
about 5 feet 10 inches in height. He
weighs about 140 pounds. He has thin.
gray hair, and a kind face. He wears
glasses, and was attired in a complete
suit of black. He looks more like a
well-to-do minister than a gold miner.

New York, Nov. 24.--Yale has decided
to row Cornell next year, despite the
assertions of the wearers of the blue
before the Ithacans lowered their col—
ors that they would never row them

nell alone, if a three-cornered race be-
tween Yale, Harvard and Cornell is

“ITIVI‘JNOTISMWI it; ".3196th CASE

 

Strange Influencenxercioed by Hus-
band Over Bin \Vife.

Washington, Nov. 24.—Hypnotism
pervades a divorce. suit pending here
between Elizabeth Smiley and Charles
W. Smiley. the suit probably being the
strangest ever filed in the District of
Columbia.

Mr. Smiley, the defendant, is a pub-l

lisher of this city, a. man of means, who
came from New England. 'He has
lived in Washington for the past eight
or ten years. . He was married- to the
plaintiff on April 27, 1893. '

Mrs. Sr‘niley,’ in her bill, alleges that
she and her husband are first cousins,
and declares that some time previous
to their mariage her husband “moon'-
lated her with ideas not in accordance
with modern civilization, and that such
was the influence he gained overher
mind and will that she saw things only

I in the light in which he presented, them

to her, rarely exercising her own judg-
ment. So much was this so that she
would put in writing requests to him
to do many things utterly at variance
with common sense, and admissions as
to her conduct, which, based -on his
but
which, judged by the standard that she
is now advised Ordinarily governs main
ital relations, would have no such sig-
nificance. He said her conduct unfitted
him .for business, and thereby he failed
to make as much money as he other-

,wise would." ,

She further avers “that he has mad
her married life‘ one continual self-
effacement and abnegation and bend-
ing to his will, and she has been made
to believe it to be her duty to yield to.
the slightest wish of an arbitrary and
exacting self-appointed judge and mas-
ter. She must not move if he desired
her to be still, or speak if he wanted
silence, or obtrude her presence even at
meals unless he requested it, the men-
tal pain and anguish she has suffered

by reason of his cruelty in this respect ‘

being heightened by reason of his false
teaching. She thought she deserved
such treatment in order to become

'worthy to move on the same high plane
on which he has led her to believe he'

moves.”

The petitioner also asserts that he
“made out a list of petty offenses
against her, which she still has, for
which she should pay fines varying
from 5 cents to 31, requiring her to
agree ~to pay the same cheerfully and
without appeal or argument as to the
right or wrong thereof.”

Mrs. Smiley says that about March 17,
1896, he took for her a house in Linden,
Md., where she has since lived. He
came out occasionally to see her, but
has lately forbid her to come to her
home in this city “because her pres-
ence disturbed the atmosphere in which
it was necessary for him - to live.”
Smiley is publisher of the American
Monthly Microscopic Journal and the
..LxroScope. -

MISSINGL WITH $2,500-

 

:‘fiwv York Bruin, Messenger Disap-
pears After ("fishing 1!. Draft.
New York, Nov. 24,.——Daniel A. life-
Cielland, a youth of 22 years, employed
as clerk 'and messenger in the Bronx
Borough Bank, was sent to the Twen-
ty—third Ward Bank, 135th street and
Third avenue, about 11 o’clock Monday
to have a draft on the ChaseNational

Bank cashed.

Two thousand five hundred .dollars
in fifty and one hundred dollar bills
was handed the youth. He left with
the‘ cash, and nothing has since been
heard of him. The police are locking
for him.

McClelland is a. son of Dr. McClel-
land, a dentist in good circumstances
in W'estchester. He lived with his
father, and was considered an exem-
plary young man. He was attentive
to church duties, but the bank officials
say he was careless about his work.
He is known to have received recently
a letter signed “Violet,” who is said
to be the wife Of a. bookmaker, and the
police expect to find him through her.

LlEUT. O’BRlEN 'RESIGNS.

Prosecutor in the Romeyn Court.

Martial to Be a Lawyer.

Altlanta, Nov. 24.—Lieut. Michael J.
O’Brien, of the Fifth Infantry, sent in
his resignation yesterday, to take effect
on March 31, 1898. He was admitted to
the "bar in Massachusetts before he en-
tered the army, and he will return to

that State to practice his profession.

O’Brien was the prosecutor in the
now celebrated O’Brien-Romeyn court-

martial at Fort McPherson recentlyt

andris one of the best-known officers
in the service.

Romeyn knocked O’Brien down on
parade for remarks, it was alleged,
O’Brienhad uttered about Miss Ro-
meyn. This led to the court-martial, in
which Romeyn was sentenced to a
reprimand.

President’s Message About Complete.

Washington, Nov. 24.—.—President Mc-
Kinley has about completed his mes-
sage to Congress—that is, the rough
draft. It is stated that he will proba-
bly finish the document to-night, and
will therefore be in a humor to more
thoroughly enjoy his Thanksgiving hol-
iday.

While the message is said to be a
very long one, it is not expected to be
as long as the first message of Presi-
dent Cleveland, which contained more
than 25,000 words.

The official announcement that the
message has been finished may not be
made for some time as the President
is not desirous of giving the office-
seekers an excuse for a renewal of their
attacks upon him for public office.

Big Pension Claim Rejected.

Washington, Nov. 24.——The pension
claim of Gottlieb Ellersick, of Missouri,
which has been pending twenty-seven
years, and which, if admitted, would
carry back pay of $25,000, has been re-
jected by Assistant Secretary of the
Interior Davis. Ellersick alleged that
his total blindness was due to disease
of the eyes contracted during his mili-
tary service in 1864.

Big Money for a Fight.
London, Nov. 24.—The fight that has
been ‘arranged between Dick O’Brien
and Dick Burge will take place at the
Olympic Club, Birmingham. It: will be
for a purse of £650, in addition to the
stakes, which will be £900.

Big Fire in St. Louis.

St. Louis, Nov. 24.—-A fire in. the

warehouse of the Ravenswood dis-
tilleryin this city last night damaged

Happiness.“

Health is at the bottom of happi-
ncss. The man or woman who is per-
fectly well, enjoys life like a child.
Healthy people do not appreciate the
fact that the country is full of- un-
happy .‘ cople—people who are sick
with s in ailments, kidney and
urinary diseases, liver troubles,
stomachdisorders. If they knew
of all this suffering, their hearts'
would go out in sympathy.
