A MEXICAN ACTOR.
His Jackdaw Piumage Gets Him
Into the County Jail

Deputy Sheriff McClusky returned last
night from San Marcos. in charge of A.
+. Martinez, a Mexican actor, and an
American named Bicknell. There had
been an affidavit made June 10th, by Mrs
V. Feille, a costumer of this city, against
Martinez, charging him with theft of 9
costumes, valued at SIS, which he had
hired from her to use in presenting play
at the MutualiSta society hall last FRI
day night. The company afterward
left for San Marcos, to play there.
Before they left Martinez had borrowed a
case of dental instruments from clerk In
0ryDski's drug store and watch from
man named Beckman, also for use in the
play.
When arrested Martinez stated that he
gave the instruments and watch to Bick-
nell to be returned, and thought he had
right to keep the costumes until he was
done with them. Bicknell said he had
returned the articles, but the clerk at
Orynski's denied this, saying he had rever
seen Bicknell before. Martinez is in Jail,
but it is thought Bicknell will not be
prosecuted

Bean Estate Again.


JACKSONVILLE, Ills. June 2S.-F.
T. Comment, of the Suffolk bar, is
collecting evidence in suit to deter
mine the disposition of $4,000, 600 left
by man who died in an obscure Tex.
&c town five years ago, and which q
Texas court once awarded, in the ab.
sence of the true heirs, to some people
i'm Virginia and the District of
Columbia. Since the decision was
rendered the real heirs, most of them
living in the back woods of Maine,
heard, by accident, of the death and
wealth of their kinsman, and lawyers
for the past three years have been
hunting up the facts to prove their
claim. In 1919. q boy was born to the
wife of q tough cid backwoods-
man named Bean, in Hartland,
Maine. The boy, Thomas Chesley
Bean, lived home until IL years old,
then went into the KenDebec woods
lum bering. The boy was frugal and
saving, and In time had q snug sum
due him in wages. One day his father
appeared at Bangor and collected this
money, whereupon the young man
angrily vowed never to see his
father ag ain. He worked his wav to
Boston On a coastifig vessel. After
living there until about 1910, Thomas
started westward. He was next
heard of in 1884, when his relations
heard that he had died two years be-
fore in Bonhsm, Texas. leaving an
unclaimed estate of $1,000 acres of
land, $500,000 In government bonds
and mortgages and money in the
bank, the whole valued at $4,000, 900.
He lived and died bachelor and left
no will. II appeared however, that
the estate had been claimed recently.
Towards. of Alexandria, Va, and the
Darrs, of Washington, claiming to
be the children of two sisters
of Thomas Bean, had claimed In q
Texas court the dead mans millions
and got judgment uncontested
against the ad Administrator. The coun.
sci for Maine claimants say that the
evidence of the other claimants make
them only nephews and nieces of
another, Thomas Bean not even
relative of the millionaire, and
they further claim to be
able to prove that the latter never
had q sister. Which side is right
will doubtless be determined by the
decision in q suit by the Maine claim
ants which is set for trial the coming
August in the district court of Texas.
All the Maine claimants are in mod
crate circumstances,

A Famous Medical Case

New YORK, June, 2S-The case
against Drs. Frank Ferguson, John

come up today In the court of general
SESSIONS. 1t is the famous dissection
case OF Washington Irving Bishop,
the mind reader. who died suddenly
at the Lambs club in this city on
May IL, 1889. At that time 1t was
asserted that Bishop was simply in q
cataliptic fit and that the. dissection
by the above named physicians was
premature and actually caused death.
There are those who believe that
the motion to quash the indictment
against the doctors, which will ua.
doubtedly be made today, will be
sustain ed by the court.

This would seem a contradiction-is so, in fact, to the eye. But experience
 has proved it's possibility. Take the case of the individual who dwells in mala rious region, A robust constitution is no certain defence against the dreaded chills. What is? Recorded testimony covering a period little short of half a century, proves that HOstetter's Stom- ach Bitters is precisely this. This con- tinent does not limit the field where the medicine has proved its efficacy. In South America, the Isthmus of Panama, Mexico, everywhere in fact where mias- ma-born disease takes on it's most obsti- nate and formidable types, the Bitters is recognized specific in illimitable de- mand, and prescribed by physicians of repute. Potent, too, is it in disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels, and against that destroyer, la grippe. Itim proves appetite and sleep, neutraiizes and kidney complaint.

pounds, at the average price of 124 cts per pound. This will make about three cars of wool for Scott Bros. this year. This is the first sale we have seen re- rorted for 1892 clip, and it is not very flattering for wool producers. Judging from the wool market, which has been constantly downward since the passage of the Mckinley bill, that much talked of measure does not appear to protect the sheep men. That it protects the handful of manufacturers, there is no question. They are worth their mill. ions, however, and are able to protect themselves. It is the producers, the men who follow their f1ocks in all kinds of weather, who need and deserve pro- lection, and not those who are already many times millionaires.
