Xot one among the distinguished coterie described severally as "the "ichest woman in the world" has a nore substantial claim to the title :han Frau Bertha Krupp von Bohlen ind Halback?and no one. perhaps s more indifferent to it. A directory )f ratings just published at Hamburg credits her fortune with an increase )f $25,000,000, or from $45,000,000 ' :o $70,000,000 in three years. This 1 s in solid German values without loubt, for the fabulous estimates of ler riches have run to $225,000,000. Eder income has been set down, according to mathematics or fancy, at 51,250,000 to $3,000,000 and $5,- * )00,000 a year. But whether or not Bertha Krupp, j is she is more widely known, even j since her marriage in 1906, is worth 1 nore or less than some other women ] n digits or in the appurtenances of ] vealth, she is undobutedly the rich- . est woman in the world. For she :ias enough to satisfy any taste she : nay have for display, with an abundance for charity, and a social stand- : ng on a par with the noblest blood, rhere is left to her in even greater iegree the primary attribute of wealth?power. She is described as i aueen. or more extravagantly as an impress, in the midst of her enormous holdings. Other rich women may enjoy the domination of their households, but the rest of it they may be content with clipping coupons. Even the financial activities if Mrs. Hetty Green must be in the face of circumstances which prove primarily the limitations of her wealth To Bertha Krupp was left the con:rol of the gigantic enterprise of her father. Her sister, Barbara, shared in :he money, but not in the authority. 1 Although relieved by a board of di ectors of the details of management, i Bertha Krupp, before and since she married the diplomat, Dr. Von Boh- ( en, has been the mistress of 63,000 imployees, involving perhaps, with :heir families, 300,000 persons. She Dwns 560 mines in Germany alone. ( She owns the steel and gun works, ? jvith the ship yards at Kiel, and the world-famous gun and armor works ; it Madgeburg. And whereas the kaiser, or any other ruler is running the : government, is confronted with polices and a legislature, Bertha Krupp i 'ealizes the undisputed power of possession. Her palace at Essen, built by her , father, took 500 men four years to jrect. It includes a personal suit for : :he kaiser, who with the empress has lonored it yearly. This is a distinc:ion usually reserved for the highest lobility. ; The same exception was made by .he emperor in attending her wediing, although it was said he resented her love for a poor diplomat, when ;here were so many penniless princes it hand. But Bertha Krupp was sufficient enough unto herself to brook . :he imperial frown. One of the noteworthy features : Df her wedding, which was considered in international event, was that her family kept down the expenditures Dn her trousseau to $250. The tradesmen, who expected the nuptials to spell a golden harvest for them, grumbled at the. simplicity; but the whole ceremony was in accordance with the modest manner in which Horfru onH Rarhara Kmnn had been "eared. And the charges of stinginess 30on were hushed, when Bertha Krupp made gifts of some $600,000 :o charity in honor of her wedding lay. Bertha Krupp and her sister were educated at home by tutors and were ittached to country life and exercise, ilthough they looked forward expectmtly to the yearly tour which their nother gave them to some centre of *rt or culture. In turn they became 'amiliar with Rome and Paris, Vienla and London, as well as the social ife of Berlin. By the time she had reached wonanhood Fraulein Krupp had acquired an aversion for fortune hunters. She had met them everywhere. No- i )les and bill-ridden gentlemen whose mly business seemed to be a search 'or matrimony became almost uneearable to her. Although she was ; eeautiful she was inclined to look iskance at every attention and to rnspect it as counterfeit. i And then she fell in love. When * lot all the opposition or tne couri md German society could phase her :he marriage to an "ineligible" 'oung man took place. j Dr. Von Bohlen, however, was in 1 10 sense of the hoi polloi. He was : he son of a minister of the grand luchy of Baden. There was an American strain in his ancestry, too, s or his grandfather served in the ] ZJivil War under Grant. By the time j le was 36 years old he had been \ hird secretary of the imperial em- i )assy at Washington in 1899, secrein 1 QUI on/1 firct ccpra. ai j a.t jc cniu in ii/ux uiiu utui, uw4 v ary of the Prussian legation at the 1 ratican in 1903?a career which J vould have been considered no mean j >ffering to any but a countess or a FOR CLERK OF COURT.

AAA T trrill RESULT OF A FREAK BET. One Man Dead And Another Gets Six Months in Prison. a Americans who are thinking of e freak bets on the presidential elec- J* tion should take warning from the fate of a restaurant keeper in Bar- = men-Elberfeld, says a Berlin special. He has just been sentenced to six = months in the penitentiary for selling 0 to a letter carrier a gallon of whis- S key, which the latter undertook to b consume within a specified number of Jj| minutes in order to win a $5 bet. p The letter carrier imbibed the whiskey and the restaurant keeper " later deposited him for the night in v i wagon in a barnyard. I The postman was found frozen to ? death the next morning. He had asked an unsuspecting friend to take a cross country walk, d and had picked a route that ran b through the long unvisited scenes of n his childhood. His fond recollection t presented every one of them to view ?the orchard, the meadow, the deep = tangled wild wood, and every loved . spot which his infancy knew. Finally he pointed to a very small d mud pond. c "Would you believe it, when I was * a boy I used to bathe in that mud p hole." p "Yes," answered his friend wear- e ily, "and it doesn't look as though they had changed the water since." c ?ii c The newspapers are the best r friends the poor man has. They c fight for all that is for his good, they ^ fight for clean government, low tax- s es good roads, free schools, for t good prices for his produce, for protection from the greed of corporations, and in fact everything that is for the good of the poor man. It is all nonsense to say that the newspa- ^ pers are enemies to anybody except g crooks. ? Orangeburg Times and j Democrat.
