Of State and continued to exercise this office
until June 1892.
His devotion to the public interests. his

SPAIN AT THE FAIR,
The Infanta Eulalia and Husband to
Represent the Queen Regent

The Queen Regent of Spain will be repre-.
sented at the Chicago Columbian Exposition
by the Infanta Eulaia and her husband,
Prince Antoine. The Cabinet has sanctioned
their visit to the Worlds Fair as representa-
tives of Queen Regent Christina
It was at first thought that the Infauta
Isabella would represent the Queen Regent
at the Fair, and, in fact, she made a pro-
visional promise to do so. Subsequently,,
however, she withdrew the promise on the
ground that her civil list was not large
enough to permit her to incur the
heavy expense attendant upon such a
visit. The Infanta Eulalia, who
has now been selected to represent Queen
Regent Christina, was born February II,
1864, and is therefore nearly twenty-nine
years Of age. She was married to Prince
Antoine son of Prince Antoine dOrleans
Duke of Montpensier. February y, 1886.
The Infanta Kulalia is the youngest sister of
the late King Alfonso.

Donoghue covered the 100 miles in 7h.
lin. 3S 1-5s. During the entire time he
never left the track for moment. His time
would probably have been several minutes
faster but for an unfortunate accident
which happened when he was on the first
lap of his ninety-second mile. He was COM
ing up the homestretch at his usual easy,
swinging gait, with head bent low. When
he was about 300 yards below the finishing
line small boy tried to run across the track
in front of him. A collision resulted. which
Knocked the Newburg flyer down and all but
robbed him of the race he had almost won.
It YVES found that Donoghue's lip was cut
and that his right knee and thigh had been
injured. He managed to rise finally and
hobbled painfully down the track. His pluck
was loudly appia uded. He gradually re-
gained his stride after skating a slow mile
and no one would have supposed he had been
hurt by the way he skated the last five miles
of the race. He said afterwards that he be-
level he could have finished the race in
lseVen hours or better but for that accident.

R. J. Austin, of Kansas City, has
returned from a thorough investiga-
ton of one of the most remarkable
cases the pension department has
had to do with. William R. Will
son, who lived at Horton, Kan, APP
piled about a year ago for a pension
for wound in the left knee receiv-
ed at the battle of Thompson's
Station while he was member of
an Illinois regiment. The departs
ment found on investigation that
another William r. Wilson was
drawing pension tor a similar in
jury, and for services in the same
company and regiment. Mr.. Austin
followed Wilson to Rulo, Neb.,
where be is now living, and found
that his description was exactly
similar to that CT the Illinois pen
s;oner. Without making known his
business, he questioned Wilson,
who proved beyond doubt that he
had cousin IN the same company
bearing the same name, of the same
age and description, and wounded
in the same part Of the body.

A curiosity in The shape of gas
we'll has been struck in Saratoga,
N. 7. A well was being bored for
mineral spring water on the Wilcox
place, in the southern end of the
town. Water was found at the
depth of 60 feet, but the borers were
not satisfied and went further. At
the depth of 80 feet the water dis
appeared and Sarbonic acid gas
made its appearance in an unpre-
cedented quantity. The gas Issues
from the 6 inch iron tubing with a
force that sounds like the escaping
steam of q locomotive, and it can
be heard for more than half mile.
The well is q great curiosity and
many people are focking to see it.

PEACHES HEATS POLITICS.

"This year." said Mr.. J. D. Gun
ningham, of Marietta, 81 have sold
to the northern markets s11,674.61
worth of peaches, besidess500 worth
sold in Atlanta. These peaches
were gathered from fifty acres Of
land at Gilmore's mp on the West
ern and Atlantic railroad. In few
years." continued Mr.. Cunningham,
Il will have an orchard that will
never fail, as it will be certain to
produce fine crop of fruit every
year. The reason of this is that the
orchard is upon Kennesaw noun
tain above the frost line. We have
JUST cleared sixty-fve acres up there
and planted upon them $4,000 FL
berta peach trees. The soil is very
rich and this will be one OF the finest
orchards in the state. The young
peaches every few seasons are killed
by the frost and hence the crop is
short. In this orchard there will
be no frost and we can count on
crop of peaches every year" The
mountain orchard can be seen from
the train and it makes one think
that old Kennesaw has had his back
shaved. Atlanta Journal.

elastic and pliable and adhere very tena,
