HoUsToE, Dec G.-TSpecisl.l IA most ro-
mantle story Of real lite came to light to-
day. In 1866 Cornelius NJ. Krum, Of Kings
stoo, New York, committed forgery aud
fed to Texas, leaving his wife and one con
After drifting around the state for Two
years he came to Houston and commenced
business as WhGelwright, under the name
of john Rose. His business soon increased,
and in 1873 he married a most estimAble
Young lady. The law of the state OF New
York provides that such crimes as forgery
are outawed after ten years; 80 in 1877 he
returned to his former home and renamed
with his family there for two months, tell
ing them that he was doing well in Texas,
but not informing them that he had an;
other wife. In 1882 his son Sam, who had
grown to be man of 26years, came to pay
his father visit, and of course lmmedl-
qtely discovered the great wrong done his
mother. He threatened his father nth OK,
posure, but the Old man bought him oil
from time to time. Last sep,
tember, the day before the grand
iury was in session, Sam went home ornnk
and told his father he had stood 1t long
enough and that he would go before the
grand iary next cay. He then went to bed
| During the night his tather went 70 ms
room and shot him six times, none oil
which were fatal. Houston the next day
| was fnll of the scandal, for 1t was reported
| that Mis-. Rose had had pistol fight With
| Sam Rose, alias Krum. Mrs. Rose stated
to the officers that sam had assaulted bel
| and she shot him, and pointed to two bull
| let holes 10 the head OF her bed as evidence
| Matters we're quieted and Sam was sent tC
| Florida by his father. Last week Sam re-
| turned and announced his intention OF eX'
| posing the whole matter, and Sunday bls
| father fed. Sam and Mrs. krum were be-
] fore the grand jury to-day and Rose was in.
dicted for higamy. Mrs. Rose states that
| she took ell the blame for the shooting, Of
the instance of old man Rose, and Sam
although he knew his father had tried to
| kin him, concurred in the statement both
preferring to take the blame rather than Ia
he facts come to light. Mrs Rose knew
nothing of the forgery or the first wife liy,
ing until last week. Rose rad fired
shots in the bedstead after shooting bis
son, TO bear witness that the son had at
tempted his wile's lite. The whole affair

Suit for Damages.

for $4,000 damages for causing
the mill of said company to lie

been employed on each side, and
lively time is expected.-Sbcp-
