SEVEN sANcTIFIED SISTERS"
The Troubles That Led Them to Open
 the Best Hotel in Texas.

They say that the best hotel in Texas
 is to be found at Belton, town on the Santa Fe road, and it is kept by seven
 sanctified sisters as the rr0prietCrS
 are popularity called. Several years
 ago a woman in that place and her husband quarreied over the best way of eXpouniding the Scriptures to a Sun day school class, and 'w9re so stubborn that they separated and were finally
 divorced The family controversy was taken up by the itcwn, which was soon
 distinctly divided between the adher- ents of the husband and the adherents
 of the wife. The result was a large crop of divorces, and seven husband
 less Women including the original
 cause of the commotion, joined to- gether and rented the town hctel. One of them did the cooking, another was parlor maid, third made up the beds, and so they divided the work among them and ram the establishment upon the cooperative plan. They would not employ a man about the place, al- though the most of their patrons were men, of edurse. People say that wo- men travellers preferred to stop else where, and that would be a woman's way. One of the seven sanctified sis ters" used tcl drive a big carry-all down to the station three or four times day to meet trains, but she let the regular transfer company handle the baggage.
 The hotel prospered from the begin ming, and there was no reason why it should not, for everything was neat and homelike and the cooking was the best in Texas, which is not saying much, perhaps but it is a g0cd reason why it was appreciated. Every Sun day it was crowded. The drummers used to swarm there from all the northern, central part of the state, and every passenger cn the Santa Fe trains was an advertising agent. The 'sanc- tified sisters made money, as they desrved to do; they enlarged their es- ta ablishment, and started a big laundry in connection with it, where the drum mers left their S0iled cLcthes to be don5 up while they were out during the week. Then the sisters" bought a hotel at Waco, and started laundry there, with equal success, and now ! they are talking of starting one in New York.-Chicago Record.

THE LOVE MAKING OF OWLS.
Their Tender Devotion to Each Other
 and to the Young Ones.

Very funny it is. from the human point Of view, tc witness the love mak- ing of a couple of owls Cn moonlight night, as they sit together on the coping of an cid wall, or on the hori- zoRtal limb of some giant of the forest. Percned on the same bough, or the same wall or ruin. the lady owl, though usually much bigger and stronger than her mate, looks the picture Of de mure coyness, if little excited in Wdrdly, like girl at her first bal. But the male owl is very much in earnest; fer a moment CT two he remains quite still, then he puffs out all his feathers, bows, and utterS a softened scream, followed by modified hiss that is full of tender meaning, and then he nudges her with his wings; she opens her big eyes very wide, and gives him a side ling glance that may be a hint, for. horrible to relate, from the depths Of his interior he instantly brings up a half digested mouse; and, although she is as full of similar rodents and stag beetles as she can comfortably hold, she opens her mouth and accepts the fragrant gift with murmur of satls@ faction that speaks volumes Of AcVe and thanks Then, when the dainty morse. has been disposed of, they caress each other tenderly for mo ment ca, two. and then sit closely pressed to each others side while the process of assimilation is perfected, after which they simultaneously fit away in search of further prey.

 Night of T. w. Johnston

 MT. Johnston had heen in extremely Ill health for the last five years. He had grown worse during the past

 hope that a change of climate might benefit him. About a week ago, ac- companied by his wife and two brotfr-
 CTS he started to Philadelphia for medical treatment Death occurred soon after his arrival
 Notwithstanding that few men in Arizona are better known it was diff cult to obtain details of his life here with respect to dates. His exact age is not known
 MT. L. H. Chalmers, who had been closely associated with him profes- sionally and socially, furnished the following information: His father Harrison Johnston, a native of Maine. moved to Mississippi some time in the first quarter of the century, He took part in the campaign against Osceola under General Jackson. He after ward engaged in merchandising and acquired a fortune. supposed to exceed S1,OO0 900. His son, T. w Johnston, was born at Columbus, Miss. and wos graduated from Princeon about 1871. Upon leaving college he was appoint ed by President Grant to a consulate in Belgium. When he returned to the United States he settled at Columbus and engaged in the practice of law He removed to Kansas and became in terested in banking.
 When he came to Arizona he first settled in Apache county and for some | time held the office of district attorney | which he filled so efficiently that | many desperate characters who had overridden the community were sent 1 to the penitentiary. He went to Pres i colt about 1889 and formed a law | partnership with T. J. Baldwin.
 He leaves wife and three children, | the eldest, son, Harrison Johnston, q student at Princeton and two daugh- | ters, Juanita and Edna.
 MT. Johnston is said to have been in Arizona as an orator. There was no other who could sway juries as he could. His manuer was earnest and direct and his language plain, was always absolutely pure and correct
 Though for five years he had been constantly a sick man he had been in terested in the most important liti- gations in the territory. He was versed in the mining laws and his latest triumphs were in the famous Jordan-Duke and the Hillside cases. His death will be learned the territory with the deepest regret.
