FORTUNE FOR CI ERK.
ST. PAUL KAN IN LINK TOR
WEALTH.
Charles Kronk, Attache of Railroad
Office, Lucky Person Who May
Be Raised to Affluence.
A St. Paul, Minn., dispatch says:
W. Kronk, a clerk in the freight de
partment of the Chicago Great Western
road, is heir to a fortune of $$00,000
through the death of an uncle who
conducted a- big-distillery--to -Holland.
The information came to him through
an aged auut who lives in Chippewa
Falls. Mr. Kronk expects to go to
Holland within a few weeks to look af
ter his Interests.
Mr. Krouk's uncle whose death has
just been announced was Timothy
Kronk. He has conducted a liquor
distilling establishment for many years
and amassed a fortune that was con
stantly added to through bis business
interests. His only brother made hif
home in New York, but died recently.
Timothy Kronk had no children, so that
his next of kin was Charles W. Kronk
of this city.
It is said that the St. Paul man's
title to the estate can be established
without difficulty, as the records of the
family have ben preserved with much
care. A portion of the old Dutch name
was dropped, however, by the younger
generation, while the older members of
'he family retain it in its entirety.
Mr. Kronk has received the news
with becoming modesty and has been
congratulated by the friends whom he
took into his confidence. He is secre
tary of the Fourth war Republican or
ganization and will remain here to as
sist in the municipal campaign.
PROFITS FOR SHEEP KINGS.
They Expect to Clip Their Laraest
Wool Crop Out in Wyoming. j
(Rawlins. Wyo.. dispatch). The
coming spring promises big returns:
for Carbon county, the banner sheep j
and wool section of the state. Many '
thousand sheep will be shorn and the
wool crop promises to be much larger
than ever before. It is impossible to
make a close estimate on the number,
of sheep that will be shorn In Carbon
county this spring, as a large num
ber of fiOikmasters shear their own
sheep, but the following list has
been obtained of flockmasters that
will shear at the larger pens: j
T. C. Miller, lt0,0o0: William Da-'
ley, "5.000; Rawlins Live Stock com-:
pany. 50,000; Smiley & Johnson. 73,
000; Ram's canon. 23.000: Cosgriff
Bros., U'i.ooi); Stock well. 75.000: Cot
tonwood. 50.000: Cow creek. 25,000;
Dana, 20,000: Medicine Bow, 60.000;
a total of 740.000 sheep. j
Shearing will commence about
April M and will continue about five'
or six weeks. Owing, to the open ;
winter and the fact that more sand j
has been blowing on the range than'
last year, it is believed the fleeces ,
will Ik? a little heavier this year I
than last. It Is expected that the;
dips will average about. 7 Vs pounds,
to the animal, in which event the!
total clip in Carbon county, figuring;
on the basis of the total number of
sheep quoted above, will be in excess 1
of 5.5OO.0O0 pounds, which, at 10 '
cents per pouod, will bring to the
flockmasters in this county something
like 5t0,0iW. Of course, it will cost
about 10 cents per sheep to harvest
the crop of wool, and then there are
tne expenses of hauling and delivery,
freight charges, salaries of foremen,
camp movers, herders, etc., but It is
safe to say that when the wool crop
of 1902 is marketed this county will
have increased its wealth by from
UOO.Ooo to $500,000 from the wool
din alone, to say nothing of the hun-.
dreds of thousands of dollars that will
flow Into the coffers of the flockmas
ters by the increase during the lamb-:
ing season. ;

Resenting the inhospitaltty or rigor
of (he leaders of the town, these men
have abandoned projected real-estate
operations, and in some cases sold
out considerable properties or simply
ceased to spend further money ,in de
velopment and sought a friendlier
welcome further East. The revolt
against the so-called indiscretion of

GOOD LION STORIES.
Marvel from an Observant Hottentot
Guide.
Allen Sangree in Aiaslee's: "Anoth
er man fell in a dead faint at the sight
of a lion, and lay flat on the earth.
The beast peered at him astonished,
bristled and growled, but either from a
kind heart or suspecting a trap, trotted
away with some show of dignity. He
would have gone more slowly if certain
of being seen, for the lion is noted for
his vanity. In this, at any rate, he Is
human, and the African natives endow
him with many other qualities supposed
lo he exclusively possessed by the high
er o.'der of beings.
" One morning.' relates the Hottentot
gtifoe. '1 saw a troop of zebras going
along a straight pati that led to the
margin of a precipice. They had all
passed with the exception of a fine stal
lion that formed the rear guard, when
suddenly from ten feet above a Hon
sprang down. He missed by a few
inches, and as the path wound around
the rock, he calculated to scale th-
height with a single bound and get the
zebra on the other side. But he did not
spring hard enough and the 7.'bra es
caped out on the veldt, beating the
air with his tail. Just then two of th?
lion's friends came along, and they
(halted together for some time. The
old lion took them to the rock then ana
explained how it was a good place to
catch zebra If you jump well. They
all practiced for awhile and finally went
away talking, but In. such a low tone
that I could not hear what they said.'
"1 band this along for what it Is
worth, but. in the light of the animal's
usual display of sagacity, can scarcely
credit it. All Mr. Hutchinson's Hons
were either stupid or cowardly.
"'When out with Paulln, for exam
ple.' he told me. 'we came across three
big feliows feeding on an antetope
about a quarter of a mile ahead. .Vow,
bad they made a simultaneous rush the
chances are Paulln and I would have
both been wiped out. because you have
to hit a lion in the brain to kill him in
stantly. A bullet or so in the shoulder
may disable him. but be comes at you
just the same with incredible areed and
leaping so as to make the shot more
difficult. But when we got within S"
yards two of these fellows cleared, and
ihe other sat down just like a cat,
watching us. I shot and knocked him
down. When he got to his feet I
knocked him over again, aud that fin
ifhed him, though he did not die for 15
through his lungs and lodged In his
backbone.' "

ONCE FAMOUS DUELING GROUND;
HOW LINCOLN WISHED TO FIGHT.
WITHIN a few months the famous
old dueling ground In Su
Charles county, Mo., will bave
ceased to exist, says an Alton
correspondent of the Chicago Inter
Ocean. The shifting current of the
Mississippi river has attacked the lit
tle plot of land and it Is rapidly suc
cumbing to the erosion of the waters.
The St. Charles dueling ground has
been the scene of more "affairs of hon
or" than any other one spot in the
W estern country. " Its Ti-hief titie to
fame, however, rests on the fact that it
was there that Abraham Lincoln met
James A. Shields, afterwarila brigadier
general and United States senator from
the btateg of Illinois, Minnesota and
Missouri sucesKlvely. in the only duel
to which he was ever provoked.
The dueling ground is directly across
the river from Alton. In the early days
of the state It was much frequented by
those who thought their honor required
vindication with the pistol or sword,
and the accessibility of the place soon
gave it a wide reputation. The laws ot
Illinois did not look kindly on the prac
tice of dueling and prescribed such pen
alties for the practice that even the
most hot-headed fire-eater, was glad to
get outside the state before a hostile
meeting with an adversary. The laws
of Missouri took no cognizance of the

ouite the proper thing then to deter
mine disputes by the shedding of blood.
Consecrated Ground.
That was In the old days, however.
A more enlightened spirit has since
prevailed in reference to such custom
tnd in consequence it bas been many
years since a duel has taken place on
the St. Charles ground. Its fame has
made it cofis-crated ground ia the mem
ory of many lllinoisans and Missouri
ans, and a few years after the war
sfps were taken to preserve the spot
In its original shape. The dueling
ground was in a little ravine through
which a creek at one time wound Its
Its way. This disappeared one sum
mer and left nothing to show its for
mer presence but Its desolate bed and a
Mimber of huge boulders that the wa
ter had left sticking up ' from the
ground. Knougb money was raised by
biiltscription to remove these boulders
and io erect an iron fence around the
grounds, and 1n that condition they
bave remained ever since.
Ridiculed the Auditor,
Mr. Lincoln's meeting tber with
Shields has furnished one of the few
ludicrous episodes with which the deul
lng field has ever been credited. Shields
was then auditor of the state of Illi
nois. The finances of the state were In
a deplorable condition: the treasury
w;s empty; auditor's warrants were
selling at half their nominal value; no
n.or" money was to be borrowed, and
ttr"t;n was dreaded bv both political
parties more than disgrace. The cur
rency of the Mate banks was virtually
th only circulating medium in Illi
nois, In the middle of August. 1S42, the
governor, auditor and treasurer Issued
a circular forbidding the payment of
state taxes In this depreciated paper.
1 his order was taken by (he Whigs as
Indicating on Ihe part of these officers
a keener Interest in the Integrity of
tnetr salaries than In the pub'r wel
fare, and it was therefore severely at
tacked In all the opposition papers, of
the sate. The hrpet assault It had
to endure, however, was in the com
munication printed In the Sangamon
Journal, which not only dlssecud Hie
administration circular with the most
savage satire, but covered the audi
tor with merciless personal ridicule. It
purported to com from a farmer's wlrt
dow. who expressed In this fashion her
discontent with an, evil course of af
falrs. Shields Was Furious.
Shields was a man of Inordinate van
ity and a corresponding Irascibility, lie
was for (hat reason an irresistible mark
for satire. His fury against the un
known author of the satire was the
dibtert of much merriment In Spring
Held. The next wk another letter ap
peared f.-m a different hand. In which
the widow offered to make up the quar
rel by marrying the auditor, and this
la tara was followed by aa epttbslaral
km. la which thla haapy romaromlsa
waa atlsnraud ia very bad rant. In
the change of bands all the humor of
the thing had vanished, and nothing
was left but feminine mischief on one
side and the exasperation of wounded
t anity on the other.
Shields had talked so much about the
matter that he felt Imperatively called
upon to act. lie therefore sent a mes
senger to the editor of the paper and
demanded from him the name of the
author of the articles. The editor was
in a quandary. The first artlcl" had
-been wralen by.Mr. Lincoln, but the
two following It had been written hy
twojoting women who took an active
interest in .potties, and could not let
the chance slip to have a lit tit fun with
Shields. The editor appealed to Mr.
Lincoln In hia dilemma, and the latter
answered.
"Oh. tell ShieMij that I wrote I hem.
Don't let the names of (he women ap
pear io the matter."
At i?oon as Shields had the name of
Mr, Lincoln given to him, he began to
boast of the vengeance he would tak",
and sent representatives to Mr. Lincoln
with a challenge couched In the most
blustering terms. Mr. Lincoln was dis
posed to laugh at the matter, and his
friends tried in every way to patch the
thing up wlih Shields, but nothing
would do the latter but a hostile meet
ing. Mr. Lincoln had to finally con-

sent to (his, but he never seemed to
divest himself of the idea that the
whole proceeding 'was a huge joke.
They repaired to St. Charles, and Lin
coln. b"lng tho challenged parly, had
the choice of weapons. Afler the ar
rival at the dueling grounds he was
aked what weapons he would select.
With a quizzical twinkle In his eye, he
replied:
An Original Duel.
"I. els have some originality about
this duel. I prefer cannon at 50 paces."
The absurdity oPhe proposition cre
ated a general laugh. In whirh even
Shields was forced to join, and while
be was In this traceable frame of mind
the seconds reasoned with him. with
the result that he .arid Llucolu were
soon talking as amiably together as If
nothing had happened, and the duel
was off.
The prominence of the men had at
tracted general attention to the duel,
and wnen the boats currying (he prin
cipals and seconds were seen crossing
the Mississippi back to Alton a large
crowd stood on the shore awaiting nws
of the result of the suposed encouuter.
Again Mr. Lincoln's whimsical tenden
cies saw the chance for another joke.
Placing a log in his f-k iff he had It cov
ered wllh clothes, and as the boat ap
proached the shore the spectators
thought it wss the body of one of the
principals. Whn they reached the
shore Mr. Lincoln, exily reached down,
took the clothes off the log, and rolled
the latter Into the river. It lok the
spectator on the shore a moment to
realize the situation, but when they did
a roar of laughter went up that dis
pelled the general tension.
' The duelists remained In Alton all
night and dined at a hotel with their
friends, and although both men fought
each other with Intensity during poll
tlcal campaign, they remiilned Ann
ever aflTwsrd. The old dueling ground
at St. Charles thus brought together
two statesmen who would have prob
ably remained bitter enemies through
out their life, and made bosom friends
of them.
