Galveston (Tex) News, Aug. 80.
CoRsIcANA, Tex, August 81, 1885,
Corsicana boasts to-day OF two oithe hap
piest men in Texas, in the persons OF
Messrs. John w. O'Neal and o. p. VIM
berly, the lucky men who drew SIS. 900
each in The Louisiana State Lottery
drawing OF the 9th instant. Each gentle.
man paid 81 for the one-twentieth ofticket
No. 81. 1886, which proved to be the num-
Der which drew the capital prize OF $780,
900. Your correspondent first sought
Mr.. O'Neal at his restaurant and asked to
see the ticket. "Uncle John" as he is ia.
military called, was slow to realize his
luck, but after depositing his ticket with
the First National bank for collection and
getting q receipt for the same he said he
began to feel like bloated bondholder."
Mr.. o. p. Wimberly, who kept small
butchershop here, offered to dispose OF his
ticket for two bits when he heard that
O'Neal had drawn the capital prize, but
no one would buy it. Imagine his surprise
when he found that he also held the lucky
number. He also deposited his ticket with
the First National bank for collection.
The tickets were promptly forwarded to
New Orleans, the $780, 900 collected and
placed to the credit OF the happy men, less
the usual rate OF exchange.

A Change In the Prince.

% idden away in the weekly gossip
column of The Birmingham Post is
the following remarkable account of
the change which has come over his
royal hlghness the Prince of Wales:
g We are all Socialists at heart, "
said the Prince of Wales the other
day when talking to a statesman of
the old school, who was lamenting
the progress of Socialism, land this
con vlction renders the outward sem
bla nee OF Conservatism more and
mo re difficult to maintain" This
ling on the part of his royal high
mes ), combined with the necessity OF
upholding the old institutions at
cou rt, must have rendered the prince
position irksome at times. Report
declares that he has for many req
son s been using every endeavor to
est ablish discipline among the ladies
and gentlemen of the court circle by
observance of the strict rules OF
etiquette established in the early part
of The present reign.
i uring the long retirement of her
majesty after the great affection
VIII Ech befell her, the discipline she had
est hblished grew somewhat relaxed
and various court scandals served to
pc int the moral and adorn the tale
of the stump orators and brawline
derhagogues, who remained unmoles
ted in their attacks, until it becam,
diff icult to put them down. The
PR nee of Wales was only awakened
to the necessity OF assuming the re
sponsibility OF his position by hi
ow n name being unjustly comprom
iseh, and he then resolved to restor,
the dignity OF the court, which haC
been suffered to become prey to tn,
sla nders OF the Socialistic party. III,
has been for some time pursuing hi.
tas k, not Questioning, but modifying
the severity of the ancient costumes
so as to render them tolerable botl
to the courtiers of the past and those
of today. The idea of dispensing
wit the bare necks and naked should
ers OF the ladies frequenting her ma
jesty's drawing room seems to be tn,
first step in this direction, and, it il
said, emanates from the prince him
self, who, being present at cour'
reception at Vienna, was struck will
the dignity and propriety of tn,

The other day spaniel that had a bnd
habit of stealing poultry was seen mp
proaching the house at moderate trot
with n large rooster in his mouth. The
fowl seemed to be defunct, and SO the
spaniel evidently thought, for being
somewhat wearied by his excursion. and
the weather being warm, he laid down
his prey for n moment in order to rest.
But the rooster was alive and in full pos
session of all his faculties. for no sooner
did he feel himself released from the
jaws of the fell beast that had captured
him than he futtered his wings and
struggled up among the branches of q
convenient tree. The dog was so
astounded ut this miracle, MS it must
have seemed to him, TINT he lost his
presence of mind for second or two,
and in That interval his booty escaped.

Dera very similar occurrence years ago).
