Her Brother Tn Route with hcr 10
Her Former Home at harshali,
Missouri

Mr.. William Teage, Of Freestone county,
passed up on the north-bOuud train over the
Texas Central road yesterday morning, hav-
ing in charge his insane sister, Elizabeth
Teagle whom no was conveying to Marshall,
Saline county, Missouri, where their parents
and relatives reside. He stated to Il HERALD
reporter that his sister has gone crazy on the
subject of religion, and had constantly grown
worse until he had decided 10 take her back
home, in hope that change of
climate and scenery and the
meeting of relatives and old scqusintances
would prove beneficial TO her and probably
meetings Of the sanctticationist and like 9TH
err fanatics of that faith had arrived at the
belief mat she WAS sanctifed and had essay
ed /, staIve herself 10 death, claiming that
the fool If this wicked earth wss impure
and unfit TO be taken into her ssnctitied
stomach. All the ehdeavors of her brother,
who appears 10 De a sensible man, to per-
suade her to give up,her foolish ideas were un-
availng and she went days and nights without
food, when she began having fits which were
followed by burning fever. They kept her
alive and succeeded in bringing bor partially
around by forcing soup and other nutritious
liquids down her throat. She believed that
she was likely to be transmitted TO heaven
a, most any time and insisted on carrying a
cat, her pet, around with her, which she
wished to take along, for fear that it would
be left behind She had the cat with her
on the train. She is II young woman,
hardly twenty summers having passed over
her head, and III a casual glance one would
never take her for an insane person. In her
demesnor she is quiet and retiring and the
first intimRtion HAD Of her being of unsound
mind is the dazed expression of her eyes and
the steady manner in which she gszes at OBJ
jecls. Mr.. TeaSle is indignan. that such q
fsnsticRl sec. rs tho saHtiflcationist should be
tolerated by a civilized and christian world,
and says that the leaders Of the sect are in
his opinion, n dishonest disreputsble class Of
men, who are handling the wesk-miuded of
the country for pecunisry gain. He says
that he has learned that his sister sent SIS on
to the band at Long Island New York, for
the erection OF temple.

This reptile, with venomols taste, chooses
the coolest and most delightful places in
The garden for his retreat, and it is literal
iy at the risk of ones life to lie down on
the grass, or even take rest in an arbor.
The wounds inflicted by these serpents are
very apt to be fatal unless immediately

with this dangerous reptile, and it is said
thet On an average nearly eight hundred
persons are bitten every year, of which
number from sixty TO seventy cases prove
1atal, while many others result in nervous
diseases which are almost as bad as death.
"A few years ago, when Prince Arthur of
En- n5land, visited this island, a grand fcte
was given In his honor III the Jardine des

blnlantly illuminated, and thousands of
people sauntcred through It's cool and
