IN person or by letter, with every subse-
quent self-denial week, it will be the
means of keeping them in touch with the

Edward King, an American who is in
the employ of the Mexican Central rail-
road, came to the State Journal some
weeks ago and made a statement re-
gardlng the persecution which number
Of Americans are suffering at the hands
of the Mexican government. King is
brakeman on the Mexican Central. Last
November he was thrown in jail on some
charge. and languished there until few
weeks ago. Through the influence of the
chief Of police Of the Mexican capital he
was liberated on parole He at once set
out for Washington to interest the Uni
ted States government in behalf of SO
other Americans imprisoned in the City
Of Mexico. King gained an audience
with Secretary Hay and received the
promise Of assistance in case the men
were not given a fair trial. He is now
returning to Mexico and viii give him.

arrives.
The law of Mexico which covers rail-.

case a Mexican is killed the entire train
crew is imprisoned Promise of trial is
given, but this promise is rarely, if ever
fulfilled. The imprisoned men are herd
ed together in stockades. given but little
food and sometimes even held to hard
labor.
Kings trial is set for April Is and
should it not be held at that time Uncle
Sam will interest himself in the case.

FORTUNE 10 THE CHURCH.

has received an inquiry from St Peters
burg concerning fortune of 50, 900 900
alleged to have been left by Napoleon
Dembinsky in Austin. Tex. Dembinski
according to the consups information
was a native Of Russia who came to this
country many years ago and worked
his way up from a poor boy. He died
about 1886 in Austin Relatives in Rus

II ne Russian relatives" said the con
sui last night, are poor people and can
not go to any expense to Investigate the
reality Of this fortune Through the
courtesy Of the American minister at
St Petersburg, however, they have
learned enough to satisfy them that
large estate was left and that there were
no American heirs to claim It.
THE American minister has written
me that he believes the property has
passed into the hands of one of The
Catholic churches in Austin. He sent
me the name of RoodS Fisher, jr.. Of
Austin. " no, he said, would be able to
furnish me with detailed information on
the subject.

watched outside. At Emporia, Kan,
Gamble ran away with $1,000 of the
