william Marries without Her knowledge,
and She Holds Him Prisoner.
CAMBRIA, N. " Sept. 29.-William Wilson,
40 years.old. lives In this village with sister
who has very strong mind. William Wilson
has always been In the habit of doing pretty
much as his sister said he should do. Until few
days ago his will had never run counter 10 hers.
Some time ago he fell in love with Miss Eliza
beth Bell Richardson. who is i've years older
than he Miss Richardson rcciprocated his
affection. William Wilson kept his attachment
. secret from his sister.
One evening last week q friend Of Miss Rich
ardson gave party. William Wilson was IN
vited. He called on Miss Richardson 70 escort
her 10 the party. On their way thither he sug-
gested that they stop at the Rev. Mr.. wiliiams's
and get married. She consented, and 30 they
were married. After the party William Wilson
went with his bride to her home. Next day he
said to her:
I've stolen q march on Sis this time. She
cant help herself now. III go and tell her"
so William Wilson went home and told his
sister. He didn't return. His bride waited un-
I'll night and then went 10 the bridegroom's sis
ters 70 see what had become of him. She found
out. William Wilson's sister had the BRIDE
groom locked up In room, and she told the
bride ~ emphatic terms that she intended TO
her word thus far. William Wilson Is stiii
locked up In his sisters house, and his bride,
failing by persuasion or strategy To recover him
has declared that she will enlist the law In her
behalf. Up to date, though. legal steps have not
peeh taken. and William remains a prisoner.

A GREAT BARGAIN IN PASTURE
LANDS.
$4,000 Acres in One Body.

This tract, comprising 2I3 square leagues,

part of Coahuila, Mexico, about 30 miles
northwest of Saltillo, and 35 miles northeast
of Parras, bordering on the famous "LagunO

acre equal to two average counties in the
United States.
The Mexican International railroad runs
around two sides of the tract, east and south,
for distance of = miles. and at no point in
that distance is 1t more than II miles. Six

The northern and southern parts are ex.
tensive grassy plains admirably adopted to
cultivation, while the intermediate belt CON
sists of low undertaking hills, covered with
fine pasture grapes, maguey, sotal, lechugilla

its fibre. and the liquor known as mescaly is
distilled from its root. SOtal and lechugllla
are valuable fibre plants. The extreme west
ern part 40 leagues or more) is covered with
magueys, as fine as can be found in Mexico
1t is estimated that their products, mescal and
fibre, if manufactured, would doubly pay the
price of the land.
The PLAINS, north and south, have deep
anuviai soil and the hills a vegetable loan,
from to feet deep, underlaid by solid lime
stone. The soil is rich in all the elements of
fertility, needing only IRRIGATION or regular
seasons to make them immensely productive.
