 But there is one fault about 1t, he said on coming out of the house one evening.

 I'll tell you. In the third act, where the conspiracy takes place, they draw lots to ascertain which of them is to kill Charles ". Now, what was drawn the first night? Ernani. And the second?

The Kinetograph the Latest Marvel Turn.
 cd Out by Edison.
 We are progressing, progressing, ' said Thomas A. Edison to Boston Herald representative when informed that his retreat had been invaded for the purpose of getting information con- corning the latest and greatest of his inventions, the one which is being eagerly awaited and which very few have had a chance to see-that is. the combination of the phonograph with the kinetoscope, the contriyance to which MT. Edison applied the term kinetograph on this occasion.
 "The object of this maohine," he said, Ifs to afford the spectator two in- ventions in one-that is. two senses are simultaneously appealed to. Suppose, we will say, an opera is to be reproduce ed. The phonograph already repeats the sound. The kinetoscope afterward af- lords view of the movements. Now, however. we wish to combine tho two and combine them far more effectively than ever their distinct clements have heretofore been rendered by separate in struments.
 Thus. If one wished to hear and see the concert or the opera, itwould only be necessary to sit down at home, look upon scene and see the performance reproduced exactly in every movement and at the same time the voices of the players and singers, the music of the orchestra, the various sounds that ac- company performance of this sort. will be reproduced exactly. The end attained Is Q perfect illusion. One really hears and sees the play, because the conditions necessary to tho suitable i'm pressions upon the eye and ear are ob. tained. n

FOOLED.

Great excitement was created
last week in Cuero by the report
that a hole in the ground without
any bottom had been discovered in
the town. The natives were panic
stricken, thinking that sold Nick"
had established near and direct
route to the Internal regions from
Cuero on account of a rush of bus
mess in that part of the country.
When cooler heads began to in
vestigate the matter they found
that the hole in the ground was
caused by a big bed Of aunts which
had been doing business in that
spot. The people of Cuero once
more breathe easy.

Food for the .somancer.


In 1882 William Hill Of Illinois
was located in Missouri Oh a rich
lead claim A family of Stewards,
six IN number. undertook to drive
him from his claim and in the effort
Hill killed one of the stewards.
Fully aware that either he or the
remaining five Stewards must die
and not wishing to further stain
his hands with human blood, be
resolved to leave the country. He
therefore took passage on the Mis-
sissippi for Texas. During the trip
he met and exchanged wives with
another mana ceremony which,
though not legally justified, was
not then considered morally wrong.
In the exchange of conjugal mates
Hill also took the strangers two
children, one of them Frank by
name. After arriving in Texas he
obtained a Spanish grant to a
league of land lying on Peach
creek in Gonzales county, some of
the choice, if not the best land in
the county, now included in the
old Spaulding place, Maj. Gellhorn
plantation and, perhaps, part Of
the Kokernot pasture, and valued
ut $15 to $25 an acre. In 1912
VIM Hill was murdered and his
body thrown in a we'll. The MUIR
der was supposed to have been the
work of a hired assassin at the in
stigation of the Stewart brothers,
his old enemies in Missouri. Frank,

all to be the legitimate heir of VIM

first man legally hung in Gonzales

is the grandson of the original
VIM Hill and is therefore one of
the direct heirs to the property I'M
lawfully disposed of by Frank Hill.
Mr.. Hill has examined the records
both here and at Austin and they
set forth the facts as above stated.
He also has records in proof of the
relation exhisting between Frank
Hill and VIM Hill, which show
that Frank was not the legal heir
to the estate. Mr.. Hills informa-
ton. which lead to the investiga-
,tion, was gained from his mother,
who in turn had been informed
years ago by her husband, who had
been enjoined to secrecy by his
father in the letter informing his
son of his whereabouts. The letter
was burned and no one knew of
the circumstances until a short
time ago, when the mother made
them known to her son.-Gonzales
