payable in gold, they would receive

ty Man.

Mcdowell county possesses a pecul-
lar freak in the person Of man who
has a very, singular nose. His nasal
appendage is large enough to furnish
material for the construction of two or
three ordinary noses, and the point Of
it protrudes nearly half an inch below
the level Of his mouth, making the
process Of shoveling grub into his in
ternal improvements exceedingly en-
barrassing and announcement. BY a
combination sniff and twist he can
place the end Of this colossal probosis
between his teeth, and could thus bite
it off at any time he should feel in
clined to undergo such an ordeal.

Some of the burnt cork business

A Good Suggestion.

Mr.. Sol. Wolfson, in speaking to.
a reporter for the LIGHT Yesterday
about the Volksfest, made an ex-
cellent suggestion. He said: "The
Nolksfest, a fair, or any celebra-
ton which causes the railways to
give reduced rates, always brings
crowds to the city, which benefits
the general business. People from
the surrounding country come here
to purchase their supplies, taking
advantage Of the reduction in rail-
way fares. Now, if the business
men of this city would
induce the railway companies to
give excursions to San Antonio
about once or even twice a month,
it would be not only greatly to the
advantage of the railways in Sc
curing to them increased travel
but it would be of vast benefit to
business in the city. 1t would be
the means of putting more money
in circulation, as those who come
to visit the city would spend their
money freely. People from radi-
us of two hundred miles would
come to secure their supplies as
well as enjoy couple of days rec
reatiOn."

the body, the embalmers took
charge and the deceased was
placed in a down stairs bed room
In the rear of the large hall, is
an old fashion I'D safe, where wee
/ kept valuable papers, money ana
jewels. The safe was found open
and the contents had been careful
ly looked through. Some of the
iewelry was missing and some
money, although it is not known
what amount. The double doors
leading from the hall to the back
gallery were found wide open,
where the intruder and murderer
escaped, after. his dastaUdly aim
had been accomplished.
The supposition is that the muir
derer, who cut Stat in the shut
ters of a window in the dining
room, knew we'll where the old
gentleman slept, and knew also,
that the key to the safe was in his
pocket, for the key, a gold watch
and chain, and his pocket book,
containing a small amount Of
money, were mis- sing from tie
pocket, the key being found in the
safe.
When found it was evident that
the burglar had shot his victim
while close by him, as the left
hand of the deceased is burre ! with
gun powder. which proves that he
made an attempt to grab the
weapon. The bullet was cut out
of the left side of the head. and is
from a A calibre pistol.
Markus Koenigheim was born
in Westphalia, Germany, and is
about 50 years of age. He has
been in this country for. more than
forty years, coming with his
brother Simon, the two boys being
the only members of the family
in this country. He has been a
prominent citizen of San Antonio
for a number of years, and was en-
gagged in the dry goods business
He disposed of his interests in
that branch and spent several
years in the jewelry and farm
broker business, when, after he
had accumulated considerable
wealth he retired.
The deceased leaves a wife, five
daughters and one son to mourn
his sad expiration. They are Mrs.
A. Cohen, San Antonio; Mrs. Henry
Hirsh, Dallas; Mrs. Price and Mrs.
Smith, New York City; Miss Grace
and Mr.. Abe Koenigheim, of this
city, the son being the well known
travelling salesman.
The time of the funeral has not
as yet been fixed, but the family
are of the opinion now that the
services will be held at the house
tomorrow afternoon, and the re-
mains will be inferred in the Jew
ish cemetery. Word has been sent
to the daughters of the deceased in
Dallas and New York, and Mrs.
Hirsh and husband, of Dallas, are
expected to arrive tomorrow morn
ing.
