II do not object to saying, however, that

been in litigation. The peculiarities OF
this case compelled me to go into all the

/ looking up this case of mine | came across
lot of Irregularities in former grants. L
found that before the question of the
Puebla's war difficulty was settled, the
Federal Government had issued three
! patents-one to Francis Read for sixty
acres, another to the HollingswOrth heirs
| for fifty-seven acres, and to Patrick Rogers
| 152 acres more or less.
Under the Mexican law puebla or town
was entitled to four leagues square, and 1t
was before these questions were settled by
our Government that the patents were
| issued. The law is very clear on that
point. 1t forbids the issuing OF patent
on any land under dispute. San Francisco
claims grant for four leagues square,
which is quite different from four square
leagues. l am right about it and will win
out in the end.
Now the State of California has issued
four patents which are illegA. On page
600 of the Statutes of 1868, is law which
says that a patent cannot be granted to a
person unless the applicant files an oath
of allegiance to the State of California. l

these oaths are not on file, nor have they

The subject of the lecture was '"The True
Man-What are the characteristics of the
true man?'
In giving illustrations from history of
great men he referred to Solomon and the
temptations he was beset with in his great
ness. Quoting the words, ''Know thou
that for all these things God will bring
thee into Judgment" he said 81 wish that

OF the $1,000 people out there at the park

he said, were honesty, industry, courtesy
and Christianity.

Five Chinese Students From San Jose

Visit This City Yesterday.
Five students from the Chinese Meth
odist Mission in San Jose came up from
the Garden City on their bicycles yester-
day. They were: Lee Fong, captain of
the squad; Wong Gong, Chow Gong, ING
Fong and Chan Foo Kwa. Messrs. Lee
Fopg and Wong Gong were dressed in
bl6s-sers and sweaters-in' fact, in full
wheel suits; but the other three were in
regulation Chinese dress-blouse, wide
trousers and queue.
Although the young men were good
riders, they made a sensation as they
pedaled through the streets. In China
town, which they visited, the San: Jose
wheelmen about paralyzed their country
men into chattering imbecility by the
unusual spectacle they presented.
Coming up they lost their way, and
were over three hours on the road. The
Chinese cyclists crossed the bay and re-
turned home by the eastern route.

ELK POINT, S. D., July 3O-The
funeral Of Rev. Joshua V Hines, the
noted Episcopal minister, was held
here today. The deceased was born
at Mickford. p L, and had been i'll
the ministry seventy-one years. AT
an early age he was bound out to a
cabinetmaker at New Bedford. The
boys parents were Episcopa1ians.
but his master was a Christian Bap-
fist, and al nineteen Joshua joined that
denomination and became a licensed
exhorter. He organized societies at
New Bedford, Plymouth, Fall River
and Boston. While preaching at this
last place he became interested in the
doctrine Of the Adventists and for a
time published a paper in support
of their views. After few years he
became Convinced that he had been
mistaken in joining the new denomina-
ton and became pastor of the First
and Second Christian churches of
Boston Here he remained for thirty
three years, during which time he
acted as a delegate to the worlds
congress of religions in London IN
1876, and spoke from the rostrurn

son AGAINST FATHER.
Dramatic Incident in the Trial at
Fargo.

Special TO the Globe.
FARGO, n. D., July 30.-Earl Kent,
the twelve-year-old son Of Myron s
Kent, was the important witness called
by the state today in the Kent case
and as the little fellow was conducted
TO the stand to testify against his own
father the scene surely could not be
pictured in words. The father strained
his eyes locking at his boy and tears
streamed down his cheek. The boy sat
rather unconcerned- II was pitiful
sight, and there were not many in the
room who did not feel a pang of an
guish. The boy told of the family
quarrels, of the unpleasantness about
the home, Of the death, of the blood
and Of the whole scene, and then he
told of his dislike Of his father, whom
he loved at one time, and to whose
neck he had often chung. He spoke of
his dead mother, and this pierced the
heart of the father. All in all, il was
the most unnatural and most painful
scene ever witnessed in Fargo.
S. B. Seavey, of West Superior, was
also an important witness. He was
kent's only friend when he skipped out
and il was with him that Kent CORE
sponded. Kent went to see Seavey
when he passed through West Superior
and told him that he was on his way
to England, where $40, 600 or $50, 900
awaited him Kent borrowed $40 of
Seavey at the time, but the next time
Seayey heard Of him he was in Tren-
ton, Neb. The next day after Kent
was in West Superior the news of the
killing Of Mrs. Kent was sent all over
the United States. Soon afterward
Seavey got a letter from Kent, asking
him for more money. Seavey wires
back asking him if he knew that his
wife was shot. Kent wired back say
ing, My God, no! Reply to my request
in the letter" meaning that he wanted
him to send the so. Kent afterward
wrote several letters to Seavey, telling
him about his financial troubles. These
letters were introduced in evidence,
and they will aid the defense materi-
lally in establishing that Kent went
away and stayed away because he was
afraid Of being held for embezzlement.
The state viii finish its case tomorrow.

Hundreds of people witnessed a re-

and uncanny spectacle at the old St.
Patrick burying ground, near Bound
airy and r street yesterday. Work
men are engaged in removing the
caskets containing all that remains of
human beings buried there years ago
to another resting place.
The ground is considerably torn up
and yesterday while a pedestrian was
crossing the old grave yard his cane
came in contact with something which
gave forth a metallic sound. The earth
around the spot was cleared away,
and within six inches of the surface
casket was discovered.
The class in the cover was intact and
through it could be seen the features
of man, apparently about forty years
old, with black hair and beard. 1t is
said that nobody has been buried in
the graveyard for at least thirty years,
and yet the features of the man were
in a perfect state of preservation
The casket was left in the position in
which it was discovered all day, and
