A Texas IrEM.-A news item with the
real Southwestern flavor comes from
Texas. As two men were entering the
town OF Marquee Station one morning
recently, they noticed something pecu-
liar about tree, and rode up to investi.
gate the matter. The odd appearance.
they ascertained, was caused by quiet
gentleman in tthe tree-top. His hands
were hanging carelessly behind him. be-
ing tied together, and his body was sup-
ported by rope round the neck. He
swung gently in the air, turning about
with every wind as though he were a
politician. He was exceedingly dead.
and appeared to have been in that condi.
ton for an hour or two, at least. Near
oy stood a horse tied to q tree. The de.
ceased gentleman was taken down from
MS elevation and examined with a crit
ic Eye by several connoisseurs in dead
men, but no one could identity him. A
letter was found in his pocket. addressed
from one L. W. Hardin. telling him to

WIN good horse, even if he had to steal
tne morse. 1t was the general opinion of
snose VINO inspected the corpse that
death resulted from too perfect comnl;-
ance with the directions in the Letter in
regard to securing steed. There Vac
no solution to the mystery. and SO thew
buried the man, without q marble tomb.

name to chisel upon it. The affair was
not the cause OF any great commotion
it was merely such an item as the Texas
reporter can sometimes pick up when he
strolls out through the suburbs in the
gray dawn.

A HEAVY LAW SUIT,
The Heirs of John Gossage, Deceased,
Suing the Crown Point and Over
man Companies--Amount involved
I'm the Suit, $627, 900.

Two important mining suits have lust
been instituted by the heirs of John
Gossage, deceased-one against the
Overman Mining Company for l25 feet
of their claim. and another by the same
parties against the Crown Point Mining
Company for Is feet of their claim and
$500, 200. Joseph Brooks Gossage, aged
20 years, and Alvin Lewis Gossage, aged
% years, are the plaintiffs in both suits.
John Gossage died in 1862, at which
time his heirs claim that be was DOS
sessed OF l25 feet of the Overman Min
ing claim, and as he left no will, his DOS
sessions naturally descended to his legal
heirs. In 1865, they allege, the Over
man Company elected them from their
portion of the claim, and since that time
they have been withheld from the DOS
session of their property or any partici-
patton in the profits derived from the
mine.
In the case of the Crown Point Com
pany, they sue for the possession of if
teen feet Of the claim and for $500, 900,
which they aver has been taken from the
fifteen feet inherited by them from their
father, who died possessed of the title to
