setting forth that they were cousins Of

Thomas Bean was unqualifedly the

were situated mostly in Fannin county
and the adjoining counties of Graysoh,
Hunt and Lamar, though Re owned large
bodies of land in other counties In the
state. When he died the newspapers
were full Of reports far more mysterious
than his life, and his wealth was esti-
mated to be among the fabulous fortunes
of the earth, compared to which those Of
Cresus and Solomon were insignificant
1t was variously estimated from &750, 900
to &25, 900, 600. Bean was undoubtedly
several times millionaire, but no proper
estimate Of his wealth can be made owing
to the fact that It consists almost entirely
of real estate which is rapidly rising In
value, and will probably continue to rise
for many years, and it is said that Bean g
estate has doubled in value within the
past decade.

Thomas Colmore Bean, the eccentric
millionaire, who died In Texas somewhat
almost incalculable value TO be sQuabbled
over by his brothers and lts cousins and
his aunts, was almost as much noted,
though in different way. ss that other
erratic Texan. Sam Houston.
For more than forty years Bean lived
IN Bonham. Tex, attending strictly to
his own affairs, accumulating wealth,
having little to do with his neiGhbcrs and
displaying . decided tendency to mis-
ogyny-indeed. he was almost . misan-
thrope. He never had any intimates,
though he was . familiar character to
everybody. Scarcely anything was known
Of his history before his appearance In
the Lone Star state, In 1648. He WAS then
young man Of % or 23 years, and pro.
6cient surveyor. He was preceded by
several months by his father. Colmore
Bean, veteran Of the war Of 1879, who
died and was buried in Bonham In 1S45.
His burial place, overgrown with rank
weeds, is still pointed out In neglected
old graveyard. 60 far as is known, they
came to Texas from Fayetteville, Ark,
to which place they, with John and
Oscar, brothers to Thomas O., came from
Palmyra, Mo. e.
When Thomas Bean iirst made his debut
In Texas he was almost penniless, but his
knowledge Of surveying stood him in good
stead, and he commenced locating land
for himself and others. Little attention
was then paid to the hermit like young
stranger. who even then possessed the
noble trait Of attending to business. But
the tide Of immigration which soon COM
menced to fow into Texas brought him
into notice by developing the fact Of his
possession Of tracts Of fine land, and that
he was destined to be one of the future
land kings Of the Lone Star state. He was
frugal, economizing. and very eccentric,
living alone In little one room hut, sur
rounded by negroes former slavos), ono Of

income of $500, 600 year, SO. though the

The Duke of Newcastle is descended
from Edward Clinton, who was made
Earl of Lincoln in 1879. The ninth earl
Of that house married the heiress of Pei.
ham In l768, inheriting the Newcastle
titles from that family. So the nobility
Of the house Is quite modern.
The ducal house of Marlborough, of
which Mrs. Hammersley has become tho
reigning lady, Is also o very modern cre-
alton. Arabella Churchill attracted the
fancy Of James II. and for her sake her
brother. John Churchill, obtained valu-

ENERGETIC ENGINEERS.
Those Employed on the Montana
Union Go on Strike.

Special to the Globe.
BUTTE, Mont, Dec. 4.-The continued
blowing of whistles at O'Clock to-day
caused large crowd of people to col
lect on the streets who were looking in
all directions for a fire. Investigation
proved the alarm to be signal for a
strike on the Montana Union railway.
The whistles blew Oh the hill near the
Syndicate mines, where three lOcomo-
tives were brought to standStill, and
several engines at the depot could also
be heard. The report of strike was
soon confirmed, A reporter visited the
Montana Union uptown Office and met
Supt. G. w. Dickinson, who was asked
to verify or deny the report of strike
on his road. He said he didn't know
anything about the matter, and if there
was strike he had not been informed
of it. This is all the information that
could be gained from the suderindend-
ent. The cause of the strike is reported
to be difficulty with the master
mechanic, who discharged Engineers
Mclaughlin, Weeks and Lecamp, and
upon being asked to reinstate them re-
fused as to Mclaughlin. At South
Butte most of the engineers have quit
depot to see that the regular mail and
passenger train was not detained. 1t
left shortly after o'clock, not being
delayed more than half an hour. The
steam and water have been blown out
of the engines on Anaconda Hill and
they are all lying idle. AT South Butte
the men are all standing around in an
orderly manner, but will not go to work.
The strike has extended to the entire
system of the Montana Union and
threatens to stop the production of the
copper mines here and at Anaconda.
Supt. Dickinson held conference with
the men, but they refused to go to work
unless their demands were complied
with, while Dickinson asked for further
time in which to get new master me-
chanic
