THE CATTLE KING.
Captain Richard King. the Largest
Stookman IN the World. Dead.

Yesterday evening at $3.50 Captain
Richard King. OF Nueces county, died at
the Menger hot Ell where he had been
staying for several weekspas The de-
ceased gentleman has been suffering
from cancer In the stomach, and although
everything that professional skill could
devise to prolong his life had been done,
the dlreful effects of the disease was be-
You'd mortal aid. lie died TRANQUILITY,
his bedside being surrounded by his sor-
rowing family and friends. Captain
Richard King was born in Orange coun-
ty. New York, July 10, 1925. At the age
of 10 years, he ran away from home and
reached Mobile. Alabama, by slowing
himself in the hold Of the "Desdemona,"
n ship proceeding to that place. lie had
only been tour days ut sea when he was
discovered and dragged by the seamen
before the Captain. Instead of having n
severe punishment meted out to him as
he fully expected. the Captain lectured
the young runaway In n paternal man
ner. and gave him some wholesome nd
vice, the tenor of which was never for
ten by Richard King. When he reached
Mobile, the young fellow met Captain
Hugh Munroe. n well-known steamboat
man, into whose service he was taken
for some time, and afterwards he worked
on steamboat plying on the Alabama
river, under the command of Captain
Joe Holland. Captain Holland took a
great fancy to young King and sent him
north to school for eight months. At
the conclusion of this period he entered
the United States service and was en-
gagged to fight against the Indians In the
Florida war, under Captain Henry
Penny and was afterwards on
board the steamboat OcOchobee
with his Captain at the time that Colo
mel Worth virtually ended the war by
strategy, persuading llospetakke on
board the steamer with his band of war
riors and capturing them all. At the
close of this war Captain King was
again In the steamboat business on
Chattahooche river until 1917, when he
ioined Captain NJ. Kennedy on the Rio
Grande in the Quartermaster's depart
ment of the United States army, and re-
manned there until the close of the Mex
lean war, and then, In 1850, In coniunc-
tion with Kennedy, under the firm name
King. Kennedy q Co., constructed the
first boats which piled exclusively on
the Rio Grande. This venture was sue
cessiul, and the firm existed until
few years ago. In 1852 Captain King
purchased the Santa Gertrudes ranch in
Nueces county, and at the present time
ii embraces 100000 acres of line grazing
lands and stocked with 10000 head of
cattle. 10000 head of horses and 10000
head OF sheep. Captain King married
in 1851 Miss Henrietta NJ, daughter of
the Rev. Hiram Chamberlain, at Browns
Vile, Texas. The deceasen leaves four
children-Mrs. Major Atwood, Mrs.
Wclton, Richard King, Jr., aud Miss
Alice Gertrudes King,
Captain Kings remains will be in
tered this afternoon, the funeral taking
place from the Menger hotel at 1870.

tice in the newspapers. The name UNI
der which she died indicates marriage
subsequent to her retirement from foot
light glare, but the husband whom the
public knew about was George Fawcett
Rowe. He was old enough to have been
her grandfather, and had an ugliness of
face that ought TO have excluded him
from the possibilities of a suitor to a
youthful and lovely actress. Their union
was entirely lawful and regular, but 1t
was for time Il secret, and now recall
an event which, | think, was
the immediate cause of the dis
closure. Kate was employed in Il spec
tacular piece at Booths theater.
One evening Rowe stood at the rear of
the auditorium, intently watching her,
and muttering angrily.

reply.
There were half dozen listeners.
Kate was the admiration of the dudes OF
that period, and Rowe's assertion spread
rapidly among them. Some believed il
and some didn't. BY the next day tat

the sad music Of the funeral dirge. Ar
rived at the church, the oasket, covered
and loaded down with floral emblems Of
white roses, was carried into the church
by 10 young men ms pail bearers, and the
funeral ceremonies OF the Episcopal
church were gone through with. II was
n beautiful AZ well as deeply affecting
sight to see the number Of young people
who ATTENDED and their solemn coun-
tenances bore testimony that they fully
realized the dread importance Of the
visit Of the angel to whom they stood
face to face. The remarks of Rev. Dean
Richardson, on the uncertainty Of life
and the importance of leading a life OF
virtue and morality, were words that
fell upon good ground and viii bear
fruit.
After the services the oortege took up
Its march to the cemetery, where the
solemn rites were concluded and the
members OF the Belknap Rifles paid the
last tribute of the soldier to their de-
ceased comrade, by firing salute OF
musketry over the grave.

Playing the Calliope.

Players Of the oalliope are not plenti-
ful, and when the management of Bar
NUNS show advertised for two good per-
formers and stipulated that the appli-
cants must be sober and reliable, good
engineers. capable of running boiler
and playing the piano. no great rush
was expected. One man applied, but,
as he had to admit that he was married,
and single blessedness was another Of
the requisites for the position, he was
told he wouldn't do. The calliope is
steam instrument, and is played like an
enormous piano, but no piano ever
yielded the music of the calliope, which
seems to be a combination of several fog
horns, the escaping steam from u rup-
tured boiler, and the roar of artillery.
Two men sufficiently accomplished were
secured yesterday. They will take turns
in attending to the boiler and waking up
the country with the music of the cal
liope.-INew York Sun.

painted the words "skating rink" They
looked exceedingly ludicrous, so much
so that crowd of men and boys became
interested and followed the paraders.
The police charged on them at the cor

wild confusion back to the theater. MIR.
