The Penniless Millionaire. The recent death of Andrew Car- negie has removed one of the most romantic figures from our midst. Carnegie was probably the second richest man.in the world—Rockefeller came first—anti gave away more than any other millionaire. His gifts total- led about $3i10,000,000. A curious characteristic of his was his dislike of parting with small change. Libraries —by all means! Twenty-five cents? That worried him. He often went about with nothing in his pocket, in order that he might not bo pestered, and this once led to an amusing in- cident:. Air. Choate, then American Ambos! , sudor in London, was astonished to see Mr. Carnegie bursting in upon him. "Look here, Choate, lend me a shill- iffg!" said Carnegie. Choate thought it was a Joke. "MAI might never see - it again!" he protested. "Come, 'J come, it's no laughing natter!" re- torted Carnegie. "My cabman's wait- ing at ,the door, and I haven't a penny!" , Mr Carnegie was unfavorably dis- posed towards drink, smoking, and cards, whereby hangs another tale.
