CLAIM KIN TO ROYALTY.

The death of Queen Victoria was of
a little more than ordinary interest
to two boys of Temple. The boys are
AL and Dick O'Brien and they claim
they can trace their kinship to royalty
through their mother. Their mother
lives in Knoxville, Tenn. and is said
to be second cousin to the late Queen
Victoria. Her maiden name was Muir
ply and she was born in London. Her
mother was a Miss Scheratte and a
cousin of the Duchess of Kent, Vic
toria's mother. Mrs. O'Brien has been
a resident of Knoxville many years. An
Atlanta paper recently published her
history and connection with the royal
family of England and printed an ex-
s. cellent portrait of herself. The O'Brien
boys at Temple are said to be COM
panionable young fellows. good bust

friends.

AGED MANS ACCIDENT
An old man named McCowen living
in Cleburne met with a bad accident
and spent horrible night out in the
cold. He was out horseback riding and
lost his way in the dark. He came
upon a structure to which he tied his
horse and climbed upon it to see if he
could locate himself. He found he
was on a high railroad bridge. then
made misstep and fell to the ground
twenty feet below. His leg was brok-
en- and his body SO badly bruised that
he could not move. At intervals all
night long he cried for help but was
not heard. A Mexican living near by |
found him almost dead from his fall, |
his exposure and night of awful agony. |
He had lain all night with his head |
within six inches of the water.
CURE FOR LOCO POISONING.
Sheriff Neighbors of Pecos county,
says he can cure loco poisoning He
has big ranch and he says when he
first settled on it he was greatly
troubled with the loco weed killing
his horses. The animals seemed to be
affected in the ear and he made post
norton examination on one of his pom
les He found at the base of each ear
over the membrane of the brain large
number of long-legged ticks. He was
convinced that the ticks were the re-
suit of eating loco and were the direct
cause of the trouble. The next time he
had a horse troubled with loco poison
ing he filled the horses ears full OF ker
osene oil and left it long enough to
insure thorough saturation. The re-
suit was a complete cure. He has
since treated number of horses sue
cessfully in this manner and his neigh
bors have also found the treatment
successful Mr.. Neighbors thinks the
tick infects the loco weed and fastens
itself on the horse while it is eating
the weed afterward settling and pro-
pagating in the animals ears L

TO ASSIST IN PARADE.

| Last week Mark LuIley left Ncgales
| with two little bears with which he
will participate in the presidential in
auguaral parade on the fourth of next
| month. The bears were captured
| when about the size of kittens last
summer and now they are about half

when at first caught. The sending of
Mark to Washington with the bears

a wager as follows: If Bryan was
elected Mr.. Hoey would bear the ex-
pense sof sending Mark to Washington
TO participate in the inaugural parade;
if Mckinley was elected Mr.. Taggart
would bear the expenses. Mr.. Tag
CART, good as his word, has started
Mark and the bears to Washington.
The grand marshal of inaugural day

GOVERNORS FATHER DEAD.
B. F. Murphy, father of Governor
Murphy, died in Prescott last Wedres-
day night. His death was the result
of old age, he being 50 years old and
had been on the decline for several
months. Even last spring his death
was hourly expected. but he hung on
and at times was able to move about
but he never fully recovered. For
several DAYS previous to his death he
was belfast and expected to lie at any
time. The governor received a dis
patch at O'Clock that his father was
sinking and before he could get ready
to start to his bedside he received a
message announcing his fathers death.
The body was embalmed and shipped
to Manitowoc. Wisconsin, for burial ,
beside the deceased's wife who died ,
several years ago.

Dispute over Land the Cause of II
Suit.

Gustav H. Kuhn, through Attorneys

terday fled a suit in equity for injunction
against Charles W. Russell. The bill
states that the complainant purchased in
1882 a certain tract of land on the Four
teenth Street, or Piney Branch, Road. and
received a conveyance therefore; that at
the time l.. made the purchase and for
many years the property in question had
been enclosed by fence upon the same
lines upon which the present fence stands.
The complainant further alleges that he
and those owning the property prior to
him have for over thirty years claimed
hostile adverse possession to all the land
as at present enclosed, and have enjoyed
the free and unrestricted use OF a road
bordering the LAND on the west and CEN
Meeting what have for thirty years been
known as roads 4 and B.
It is charged, however. that the de-
PENDANT recently purchased from C. c.
Glover the property directly west of com
plainant and, after having a survey made,
claimed ownership of the roadway and
from 10 TO 20 feet of the property en-
closed by complainant. 1t is further al
legged that the defendant has caused
stakes to be planted upon the complain
ants land along the line indicated, and
that he claims ownership of the prop
erty embraced within the survey.
The court is asked to enjoin the de-
PENDANT from trespassing or attempting
to claim any of the land enclosed by
Kuhn's fence and to decree the connect
ing road mentioned to be a public high
way 1t is also prayed that complainant
may be decreed to have a good title to
all land enclosed by him. The property
In question is said to consist of twelve
acres of land, and is valued at $4,000
