She is the widow of fa/ Capt. Richard King, and she owns a principality in Southern Texa s. Her landed estates consist of abet 1,250,000 acres—that is to say, nearly 2,000 square miles, which is bigger than Rhode Island 'and alneost as big RS Delaware. For taking care of this vast domain a small army of men is re- quired.' - Their votes ere contemned by the mistress, who is to all intents and purposes a queen. The records of the Land Office at Washington reveal some extraordinary facts with relation to that part of Southern Texas which seems on the map to intrude into Mexico, termina- ting in a point at the mouth of the Rio Grande. This region, nearly as big tts- Nook England, comprises four great counties, and is owned by four tinsel- lea—the Kings. the Kennedys, the Collinties and the Armstrongs. 'Much the largest of the four shares belongs in fee simple to Mrs. King. Few men in this world have ever been so hated and feared ae was Capt. Kings He was a cheracter typical of Texas life twenty years ago. Employ- ing the labor of large numbers of igndt- ant:Mexicans, he induced them to ac- quire homesteads under the laws of the United States. They were always in debt to him, and eventually their lands came to him. In this manner the gi- gantic estate was largely built up. Oth- er white men who .took up holdings in 'the region .were shut in with barbed- wire fences by the great proprietor. They found themselves enclosed as in mousetraps; they could not drive out their cattle, and so sold their prorerty to Capt. King. The region is at present the most shut -up portion of the United $tates—a veritable terra incognita, without railways and in the earliest stage of development. 'The ancient road from San AtiOnio to Brownsville has been closed by Mrs. King's fences, an there are no gates. There is no road law in that country. The onry way to get front Brownsville to . Alice -is by a stage route of forty hours: The stage carries mall for a large part of Mexico. In the entire distance there is uot a single settle- ment; because the territory traversed belongs to Mrs. King. The region is 'whblly wild. being used for cattle graz- ing. In \The Wein from a Car Window\ Mrs. King is referred to by Richard Harding Davis. evho remarks that it is difficult to imagine a saiitary family occupying an area larger than some of the Eastern States- -an area that would in the East support a State capital. with Governor and Legislature and nu- merous small towns, with competing railway systems and rival baseball nines • The owner of this principality Is a generous anti liberal minded woman, about sixty years of age. She does much good and takes care of her peo- ple. To each laborer on her estates she gives a cow. Her ranch of Santa Gertrucits is - the largest in the world. It is bounded by Cernus Christi Bay for a distance of forty miles and by barbed-wire fences for 300 miles more. From her front door to her front gate Is thirteen miles, arid she can drive in • . her carriage sixty-five miles in a straight line without going off her own premises. Her house looks like a castle on the Rhine ---a typical baronial mansion. 'It is situated on a slight eminence, sur- rounded by the modest dwellings of her dependents and by fields of waving corn. Beyond on every aide is a wilder- ness of mesquite and cactus. This out-of-the-way Texas chateau is as eonipletely furnished and as hand- somely equipped as any niansion .on Fifth avenue. No luxury that money can buy anywhere is lacking to the widow, who is the dditgliter of the first Presbyterian missionary to the Rio Grande. Corpus Christi is the termi- nus of a railway, and from that polat a rontfnuons stream of wagons carries ice, and other necessaries to the ranch. Mrs. King lives for. several months of each year in a palace at Corpus Christi. Her son -In-law. Robert J. laleberg, is general manage of the tench. on which are 200,000 cattle of improved breeds. bong trains of freight oars are made up at Corpus Christi to carry Mrs. King's cattle to the East. To run the vast 'estate costs about 81410.00 a year. For every twenty mites of barbed-wire fence there is a man to make repairs and see that no -bap. k occurs. In the old days. to cut a iitnce was an offennt• likely to result in' the death of the Perpetrator of the act. Three hendred cowboys . are regu- larly employed. 1,200 ponies being set aside for their use. Every spring all of the calves are rounded up for brand- ing.

WETTING A LEAD PENCIL. A Little Story About the tiabit of rat. *leg Things In the Mouth. London Tid-Bits: The act of putt Ong a lead pencil to the tonsfue e ka wet it, just before writing. which ,we notice In so many people, is one of the oddities of habit for which it is hard to give any reason, unless it began in the days when lead penctls were poorer then now, and was coutinued by example In- to the next generation. A lead pencil shauld never be wet. It hardens the lead and rains the pen- cil. This fact. Is known to newspaper men anti stenogeaphgag, But nearly every one else does wet a pencil before using It. This fact hat; been definitely settled by a clerk in a newspaper office. Being of a mathematical turn of mind, he aseertalned by actual count that of fifty pet - sons who came into the office to write an advertisement or notice, forty-nine wet a pencil in their mouths before using it. Now, this clerk always _nets beelkettecile that can be pro- cured—in fact, is a connoisseur in lead pencils, cherishing a good one with something of the pride a soldier feels in his gun or sword; and it hurts his feelings to to have his pencil spoiled. But politeness and business considerations require him to lend his pencil scores of times every day. And often, after it had been wet, until it was hard anti brittle, and refused to mark, his feel- ings would overpower him. Finally, he got some cheap pencils, sharpened them and kept them to lend. The first person who took up the stock pencil was a drayman. He held the point in his mouth and soaked it for several minutes, white he was torturang him- self to write an advertisement for a missing bull dog. Then a sweet -look- ing young woman came into the office, with kid gloves that buttoned half the length of her arm. She picked up the same old pencil and pressed it to her dainty lips. Preparatory to writing an advertisement for a lost bracelet. The clerk would have *Wed her hand, even at the risk of a box of - the best pencils ever made, but he was too late. And thus that pencil passed from mouth to mouth for a week. it was sucked by people of all ranks, and stations, and all degrees of cleanliness and unclean- Iluess; but we forbear. Surely no one who reads this will ever again wet his lead pencil. Just II W:sr vane Here Is a reminiscence of war time from the Seattle Intelligencer: strange story in which Seattle has an interest has come to light in connec- tion with the battle of the Wildernene. through the desire of a small boy to' get hold of a bird's nest. Henry F. Low - penny, a corporal in the Thirty-second Indiana Volunteers, lost his right arm at the elbow during the battle by the explosion of a shell.. Since then bow - penny has (lied, but his widow resides In this city with a married daughter. Bradley Johnson, a cousin of how - penny and also ex -State Chancellor of Missouri, now resides on the scene of the battle, and a few weeks ago his little son, while bird's nesting, discov- ered a nest built in a skeleton hand in the fork of a large maple tree. On one of the bony fingers was found a seal ring which was recognized by Mr. Jamison as having belonged to Low penny. FASHION'S FANCIES. ForgetAne-not blue veil be worn. Old red is seen . on mohair samples for fall So elaborately are capes trimmed that even Astrakhan anti \baby\ lamb models have motifs of jet applied. Cloth designs have a close fitting bark anti loose, double-breasted front having a single or double row of buttons. Manufacturers have prepared many dressy shoet coats, so evidently capes are not to have their own way without a rival. Light greenish tints and tho or a grayish cast are thought well of. Pigeon gray Is handsome for mohair. Light olive green is spoken of. Triple shoulder capes are put on in man , unique styles, no one idea prevail- ing.

TIIE GUARD'S STORY. From the State Journal, Lincoln. Nets There is probably not a stronger man ot more trustworthy guard employed at that Nebraska State Penitentiary than J. T. Halston. To a stranger h• appears a very good example of the matt who boasts that Ralston Mod at he was nests sick u day in his life. For many years Mr. Syracuse. Nebraska, and the old residents there remember him as One of the strongest and healthiest of their number. In MI, or therealsiuts, when the \grip\ first broke forth in this iection of thecoun- try, it claimed him as one of it, earliest victims, like most men with a strong phy sique. he sneered at the disease and did not guard properly against it. For days he lay in bed and left it only as a confirmed. invalid. Ationt tete time be moved with his family to Peru, NebrasLa, where bra1113 of his chil- dren were attending the State Normal School. He hoped the change would do him good, but he wasdisappoluted. He doctored with the local physicians. and even with his own son, who wan practicingmedicine. All seemed to no avail, and miserable In mind and body the poor man told his family that he feared there was no hope for him. A happy thought of his own led him to try strong stimulants. Be was again able to work. But hereon found that his relief was but temporary, and when bad weather came on he was subject to severe attacks of the -grip\ as before. Two years ago Mr. Ralston was employed at the Nebraska State Penitentiary at Lin- coln, the state capital. and enjoyed compar- ative ease w bile performing the duties of usher. Last fall, however, be was put out on the wall, and with the change of work came his old trouble in even more aggravat- ed form. He was not only troubled with the usual miserable feelings of the - grip,\ but he found himself short of breath and gen- erally weak, these things unfitting him for the duties of his position. Once more, almost in despair, he sought a cure and purshased a hazel' Dr.Williams' Pink Pills :or Pale People. He used them according to directions and telt better. Five more boxes followed the first, and the long - sufferer was a well man. Said he to a Journal reporter, to whom he had just given the above facts: \I feel now as though I could stack tutors hay than any man in Nebraska; and if I needed a posi- tion now I would hunt one on a harvest field. Why, only last Sunday night I took a severe cold whicissitt year ago. would have laid me up a week with the •gtSp'; but now it causes me only temporary annoy- ance, and I simply live it off.\ Mr. Ralston has been long and favorably known in many parts of Nebraska, both as a private citizen and as a leader in the orig- inal Fariners'Alliance inovementandlIOHIS of friends rejoic s e with him In his remark- able recovery. fot which he unhesitatingly gives the credit to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain, in a condensed form, all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves.

Texas Longhorns Intim/seated by Rotten Fort Scott special to Bt. Louis Globe- Densocrat: A herd of Texas steer., 116er- ally intoxicated on the fermented juice of rotten apples, is an emergency not contemplated by the authors of the Kansas prohibition law, and its seev- eral amendments; yet such a spectacle was recently witnessed by the chief of the metropolitan police force of this eity and the sheriff of Bourbon county, who have explicit instructions from the department of the state to rigidly sup- press the use of intoxicating liquor by the people of their respective jurisdic- tions. Patrick Gorman, an extensive stock feeder, a few days ago shipped to his ranch, ten miles northwest of this city, a herd of wild steers from t'ie plains of Texas. During their first night on a Kansas ranch they stampeded through the line fence of the pasture into an apple orchard of the Alf Cleat farm. The prolific fruit season made it unprofitable for Air. (neat to gather but a small per cent of his early apples, and the burdened trees had dropped their ripened fruit to the ground full three layers deep. The ap- ples had rotted and were in a state of fetmentation that makes them a most intoxicating feast for cattle. Until the next morning the beasts glutted them- selves, and were found in a condition of inebrioey that caused them to conduct themselves with that boisterous hilari- ty in which man. is want to indulge when overcome by the effects of Kansas \applejack.\ The effect of the fer- mented apple juive was as varied In the cattle as it would have been in as many men. Some of them bellowed and con- torted in drunken debauchery, others were on their muscle and dangerously vicious, while some of them laid help- less and harmless. Their demonstra- tions attracted the neighbors for miles about, and when the facts became known In town crowds of people drove out to witness the revelry of a 'steer beer garden.\ They were rounded up and corralled with much difficulty by a score of experienced cattlemen. Not unlike human drunkards, the effects of the dissipation on some passed off soon, while others were in the \sobering up\ process for two days. WHEN JEWS HAD THREE EYES. A Strange Tradition Held by Hebrews Living In the Orient. The Jews of eastern Palestine and Asia Minor have a queer tradition which has survived from ancient times and tells of a remote period in their his- tory when every fully developed Is- raelite was equipped with three per- fect eyes. Thetwo main optics, accord- ing to thercurious old-time legend, seete situated in the front, part of the head, 'just as Jewish and other eyes are to -day, but the third—the one that made the early patriarch a monstrosity —was located in the back of the head, just above the nape of the neck in the edge of the hair. This wonderful third eye in man was not \evoluted i out of existence, as useless organs generally are (according to the ideas of the pro- gressive scientists), butt was closed by the divine injunction on the day when Moses was given the tables of stone on Sinai. Yott remember that God's com- mand on the day that the tables were renewed was to the effect Dint no man should be seen in the vicinity of the holy mount. (See Exodus xxxiv.. The believers in the three -eye tradi- tion says that Moses supplemented God's command by ordering the faith- fel Who were encamped in the valley to turn their heads from the mountain. This they did, butt look good care to uncover the eye that was situated in lee bark of their head. Moses, notic- ing this show of duplicity on the part of his followers. asked God to close the third or rear eye, and since that day the Israelites, in common with the re- mainder of humanity. have been forced to depend on two eyes only. Vieth Trolley and Cable. A rather unique device is in use by a San Francine° railway nel overcome a 25 per cent grade on en electric line. There are two tracks on this gratle for ears going In different directions. On the grade there is a conduit like that for cable toads, and it contains an end- less gable passing over pulleys at the two ends. An up -going and down - going ear Sr.- attached to this cable by men stationed at the grades, and the two cars then work together by the tine of their awn motors, the one going down hill assisting the one which if4 gong up. The system wan tested a few weeks ago for the first time, and was fount:. to operate siumeesfully. It has stunt' been working to perfect satisfac- tion. It was found that the power of the down -going car is far more than is necessary for hauling the ascending car tinder any pomelble conditions of load.
