MARY MARKS.

at last when a woman, of As she was
brought to Texas in 1921 by James
Whitesides and his wife, Betty, one of
the three families to cross the Brazos,
the other two being Jared z. Grace and
JOHN P Cole. The WhitesSdes were the
hrst to locate San Felipe, the first CAPT.
tai, where they established a tavern, the
head waitress in which was Mary. at
This tavern in 1881 Moses Austin Bryan
boarded, and was then a clerk in San
Feiipe's first store. The waitress was
still there at the time of the battle of
San Jacinto, and there is no more fRsci-
mating recital of those stirring times
than her description of life and charac-
ter in that early day.
AIT Whitesides' tavern congregated
the future statesmen and soldiers of
fortune-Baron de Bsstrop, the first
surveyor; Sam Houston, Henry Smith,
tine first governor; ''Three-legged Will
lie" or, as he was less Familiarity known,
b. N. Williamson, and many others.
The attentive waitress, Mary Marks,
was thoroughly alive TO the greatness
of her guests, and repeats with the
eeenest appreciation many of their say
sngs. 1t was at this tavern in 1886 That
John Marks, negro Methodist preach
er, came and married Mary, then CO
years of age. John Marks was a full
blooded African, tall and very black,
with long arms and a mouth almost
from ear to ear. He had little educa-
fion, but he preached with power, and
the white people flocked TO hear him,
Sn the words of his relict, like birds"
After his marriage he made and saved
enough money to purchase his wife's
freedom. Several years later, after
Texas had won her independence, the
Marks moved TO Coles settlement, now
independence. where Judge John 7.
Cole presented them with small tract
of land of ten acres, TO revert to the Cole
heirs at the death of the survivor, where
they took up their residence and lived
until 1880. John Marks died at good
old age. Soon after this Mary, from
her infirmities untitled to take care of
herself, was cared for by different
neighbors. and both white and black
contributed TO her support. The old
woman also draws a pension of $50 a
year from the a. NJ. +. of independence,
of which her husband was pastor.

Rats In nIaumotb Cave.

In the mammoth cave of Kentucky
are found blind rats which have large
and lustrous eyes. When exposed for
a month OF so to mild light, they ac-
puire a dim perception OF objects. TIE

nestle variety, but it's body is very
long. like that of weasel; its whiskers
are longer, and it's ears are nearly twice
as big. It would be interesting to breed
a few generations of blind animals from
the caves, and see if their descendants
would revert to the original forms that
had eyes.

which resulted in the sending of a
challenge by the latter, Borrero having
refused to retract his letter. When the
duel was d ,clared off, few days ago,
it was supposed to have been condi-
tional that Borrero would retract so ne
of the statements made in the letter.
He was given ample time and snggges-

left no other course for the government
to do than to prosecute him criminally.
II is said here, upon good authority,
that the prosecution will be more than
formal. Il will be vigorous, and with
determination to convict.
