If aloofness and reset ve are supposed to be
attributes to genius, Olga Nethersole Is cer
tainly an agreeable exception. A more
cordial or approachable hostess '"could
scarcely be Imagined than the great actreaa
as he received the reporter of The
Bee Monday morning on her car, which
stands on a sidetrack In the Burlington
yards. Miss Nethersole, with her company,
travels In two cars, one of which Is occu
pied exclusively by herself and Immediate
staff, consisting of a aecretary, two maids.
a steward and porter. And she haa solved
the firoblem of traveling, too, not only In
tha matter of luxurious equipment, but by
a persistent refusal to see or know of any
unpleasantness that may prevail outside
the windows of her wonderfully coxy dom
icile cor the lives on her car.
la Her "leeplasr Room.
A quantity of Chinese and Japanese silk
embroidery and other souvenirs of the Pa
cific coast and west were In evidence every
where In the reception room and in her
sleeping apartment. She had not arisen
when Interviewed, although J It waa nearly
noon, explaining that everyone had forgot
ten about the difference of time between
hrre and the west and that the clocks were
all an hour behind. A bundl of foreign
nail, still unopened, lay on the silken cov
erlets of her brass couch, and In her silk
kimono of embroidered old rose, pushing
back the masses of brown hair from her
forehead aa she talked, she presented a pic
ture of luxurtoua comfort.
"I really experience no discomfort living
on the car." she said. "You see, one doea
not really have to look at or listen to un
pleasant things, and ao the whistles and
noise and other unnttrnVtive features of the
yards do not annoy me."
And ahe really wears the "Nethersole"'
bracelet. Two of them of exquisitely tinted
Jade adorned each arm. and she remarked

Jade, and had a score of (bracelets.
Ia Love with the West.
"This Is a wonderful country cf yours,
this west. It Is so big and so Inspiring,
and It appeals to me so," she went on.
"That is the l.ntln In me this enthusiasm
and the rush and the freshness of things
I get that from my mother. I am so de
lighted with it all that I have canceled my
London engagement to havevcommenced In
September. I cannot help wondering what
sort of race all this cosmopolitan popula
tion will eVolve. Friday I had my intro
duction to the Juvenile ccurt cut In Denver.
I was the guest of Judge I.lndsey. He Is
a wonderful man. and his methods are
wonderful. It Is the motive that he looks
for. seeming to lose sight of the crime en

And then she fell to talltjng of the
Women's International Antl-Tuberculosla
league, of which she Is the founder. "I can
not understand why people do not do more
about this awful thing. It Is not the cure
of the disease that Interests ma; that comes
within the province of the physicians; It la
the prevention. That Is .where the work
'needs to be done, and It seema to me that
If people knew of the awful housing and
condltlona that are at the root of the
trouble they, would rise up and put a stop
to It. The ravages of this disease are
worse than the earthquake disasters, and
yet It goes on and so little Is done to
prevent It."
Concerning plays Miss Nethersi'e said:
"I select my own plays, so I never play
things that I do not like or that are In
consistent.. 'The Labyrinth' Is one that I
like very much. I would like to have
played It In this country. It Is by Paul

story of a woman in a false position. You

RICH AND HOLDS DOWN JOB
Postman Makes Fortane la Real Es

Letters.
How to amasa a fortune of :.W,nn0 on a J
salary or Jl.ono a year seema next to the
Impossible, and yet there are several letter
carriers In New York who tramp the
streets, rain or shine, delivering letters for
t'nele Bam who have that much money. If
not more, safely .Invested. The branch
postoffice known aa Station Y, on Third
avenue, near Slxty.elghth street, employs
three letter carriers whose total welath
aggregates nearly $500,000. .
The men are Martin l Henry of 1W8"
Bathgate avenue, the -Bronx; William W.
Munroe of 201 East Beventy-second street
rtnd Ix)uls Gates of 1220 Third avenue.
These men,' although Independently
wealthy, through extra effort during leisure
hours, still trudge from house to house
daily with mall bag and whistle, content
to accept a salary of $1,000 a year "which
t'nele Sam provides for his postmen.
In every case the fortunes were made
through shrewd investments In real estate.
In order to save from their salaries the
amounts they possess each letter carrier
would have been obliged to put aside every
property In other boroughs.
Letter Carrier Munroe, who has deliv
ered letters for nearly twenty years, has
also managed to gather together a com
fortable fortune. ' According to his fellow
cajrlers he will leave the employ of Undo
Sam next September, If not before, to live
on the large farm near Saratoga, N. Y
which he recently bought. He Is now
waiting to see If the present congress will
vote a pension to those letter carriers who
have been in the service twenty years.
If the law is passed Munroe will wait until
nekt September, when he will have served
tttat length of time.
Postman Gates has long been a partner
In real estate deals with Henry, and It Is
cent of his pay and labor unceasingly for
from 100 to l0 years.
Martin L. Henry, who Is considered the
richest postman In the world, haa a fortune
estimated at from tlSO.OOO to $250,000. He
started twenty-four years ago aa a letter
carrier with $100. Hla route for miny
years has been to Fifth and Madison ave
nues. In the vicinity of Seventy-second
street, and It was from aome of the wealthy
Wall street operators to whom he delivered
mall that he first received ' his start in
fortune building. Several years ago he
bought lots in the vicinity of Two Hun
dred and Thirty-fifth street for $200 apiece.
They are now worth $1,200 each. He owns
said that his fortune equals. If not exceeds,
that of his brother letter carrier. All tha
wealthy post)ien, however, do not work
at Station Y. One of the richest la "Sam"

der Lincoln, and who has dellevered mall
In the downtown district for thirty years.
"Sam," as he is popularly called, is a civil
war veteran and minus an urm, which he
lost In, the batt'e of the Wilderness. After
the war he bought an artificial arm him
self and went into the buslnesa of selling
them to others.
After the legless and armless veterans
had all been aupplled, Mr. Fitch Joined the
letter carriers. At that time the men wore
no uniforms and received a penny apiece
for the letters they collected at the boxes.
He was obliged to tramp twtnty miles
day to earn a living. Now his fortune Is
estimated at $200,000, and he owns property

f Cratehea Cannot Be Paalshed
Insr His Wife.
"Your honor, I don't want to say any
thing against that woman. She is my wife,
your honor, hnd I can't say anything
against her."
So said Max Hlrshman to Police Judge
Crawfofd Monday morning, when he waa
led out from the "bull pen" to answer a
charge of abusing his wife, intimating
thereby that the fault lay principally with
the better half, but In his charitable na
ture he did not want to blame her.
"I never raised any trouble with her,"
he assured the Judge, and aa no outraged
wife appeared to testify against him, his
honor admonished the prisoner to see to It
that he never again la taken Into court on
a similar charge, and then sent him home.
Other marital troublea to tome to the at-
f tentlon of Judge Crawford Were those of
Carrie and W. 8. Van Dusen. This pair
haa been divorced, but. It appeared, this
did not hinder the continuance of the war
fare between them. Van Dusen, It was
charged, became intoxicated Sumjay night,
and remembering the spile he bore his for
mer spouse, he wended his way to her
room at Fifteenth and California streets,
and the two went at It aa In the "dear old
days of old." They were enjoying them
selves hugely when the police arrived and
took them to Jail. Both were more or less
bruised up, but aa neither bore the other
any rrudge as the result of the frolic, they
were both sent on their way to get surgical
treatment.
George Lawson, a young man who looked
as though he would knjw better, strenu.
ously denied to Judge Cijfprd that he was
drunk on a Walnut Hlllastreet car Sunday
night and raised a Vow, asserted by

der each pretested with . vehemence and
vigor that they are not what the law terms

promptness and earnestness.
"What do y:u do?" was asked.
Mite and Snyder tried the Ice-cutting

Davis could be blamed for not supporting
his wife when he was able to get around

same time, however, admitting that her
pugilistic efforts drew Wood on his face

tween them and that life at the family
home might not be as pleasant for him as
tha outdoors.
