CAT BRINGS FORTUNE.
Furnishes Link of Identity i'm Bene- factress' Claim to One Hundred
 Thousand Dollars. ,f

Only her love for cats convinced the administrator of her fathers estate that Mrs. Hannah Mulligan and her daughter, of Anderson, Ind, were the rightful heirs
 The estate, which is in Manchester, Mass, is worth $100,00O, and Mrs Null Hgan looks upon low-bred cat as the hamburger of her good fortune. When Mrs. Mulligan was young girl in Man. chester her devotion to the feline tribe was famous, and every one prophesied the inclination would lead to spinster- hood. But these predictions were not fulfilled
 Mrs. Mulligan died 15 years ago, and his widow came to Anderson, where she has been living ever since in humble circumstances. While in Anderson she harbored ten cats regularly, and one night gaunt kitten, pursued by mis- chievous lads, 1eaped over the Multi gans' back fence. Mrs. Mulligan cared for the stray cat. A f$w weeks after ward she heard of her fathers death. Then came word that her daughter had

stage. One fall about six years ago Marion and Jack Mason were about to appear in a Chicago house in 8 vaude- vile sketch they had prepared, one which was redolent with promise so promising, in fact, that some local or ganization had contracted for the en- tire house for the opening night, and at a liberal price. Unfortunately, on the day of the performance, Marion took suddenly i'll. Fortunately, how ever, within an hour afterwards, Ade- laide blew in at the hotel where her mother was staying, fresh from con- vent, and heartily tired of convent life. Mason's eagle eye caught. the marked resemblance to the mother in the girls face and form on the instant, saw the lines of worry on her brow and gleam of ambition in her eye, and an idea struck him-and at that evenings in- itial presentation of the vaudeville sketch Adelaide played the mothers role, and played it so admirably that both "star'' and sketch made a pro- nounced hit, and the papers, in the morning. raved over the genius of ex- perience'' which had told so admirably in the evenings work. The true story of that evenings emergency experiment has never been told until now, but 1t settled convent life and the choice of a profession for Adelaide. for she se- cured an engagement that very even- ing, and has never quit since, only just long enough to get married and enjoy a brief honeymoon.

stakes were stiffer than have ever been recorded in the annals of poker.
 With the third hand the incumhrance of chips was swept away and the ante was established at one acre of land and the limit at the holding of any one play CT.
 By dawn the game had reached it's height. The table was covered with in- formal deeds. Thousands of acres of land had changed hands and yet no one player was as much as a thousand acres to the good. One more hand was agreed on to end the game. 2
 On the draw three men were in, 8 stockman from San Antonio, a capitalist from Dallas, and the native Beaum onter, who had inherited a large section of land. The stockman took three cards, the capitalist two, and the native vil- lager stood pat. He opened with bet of 20 acres. The stockman called and the capitalist raised the stakes to SO.

S1illions Won m a Famous 1eraS Poker Game <

The Beaumonter raised to 10O Again the cattle king covered the amount and the capitalist raised up in his chair.
 "I'll make that thousand acres!" he exclaimed, as he threw the slip repre- senting a possible transfer on the table.
 1.-TWO thousand!" echoed the holder of the pat.
 Five" raised the stockman. He had been considered out of the running.
 Another thousand" commanded the capitalist. .
 The Beaumonter threw down his hand in disgust.
 The sudden awakening of the Vest erner struck the capitalist from Dallas with foreboding. He offered to split the pot The offer was accepted. Each withdrew his own contribution and be- tween them they divided the acres of the Beaumonter, thousand acres apiece.
 They turned up their cards. It was the last hand. The man from Beaumont had stood pat on two pairs, sevens and aces The stockman had queens alone and the capitalist had held pair of jacks with an ace and had not helped.
 Almost the entire loss during the game was on the part of the home tal- ent, while a politician, with reputa- tion now almost worldwide, quit 500 acres to the good. The fifth player was nearly even with the game.
 At that time the winnings were not considered great. Land around Beau mont was then worth no more than $2 per acre, and any one of the quintette was able to stand the strain without inconvenience. The game would have been considered inconsequential but for the discovery of oil and the opening up of the great Spindle Top field two years later. &~< It is now recalled that the ante in that little game really varied at from s5.000 to S60,0O while the last hand was worth l $5,000,000 to the two buffers, who car ried their poker operations to success full issue.
 Among the first on the scene at the outbreak of the excitement following the discovery of oil near Beaumont were the stockman from San Antonio and the | capitalist from Dallas. The land they 1 had won at the little game of draw was sold by them at from s5,ooo to $6,ooo l per acre. It was not until the later dis covery of oil at Sour Lake that the poli- tician stepped into the ring. The prop erty he had acquired proved to be di- rectly adjoining what is known as the l proven field. That land is now selling as high as $75,000 per acre and is being di- vided into sixteenths and thirty-seconds l for the accommodation of ordinary and anxious purchasers.

TO STOP DuELING IN EUROPE.

An interesting visitor to Washington is Baron Reinhart Bachofen von Echt, of Austria. This is his first visit to the United States, and there has not been day since he landed that he has not congratulated himself for coming.
 The baron is young man, the pos sessor of big landed property in Sty- ria, and having lived in many coun- tries, speaks several languages fuently. He is a student and philosopher, and the large affairs of nations interest him deeply. &
 T notice in one of your Washington papers" said he, ian article relating to a movement that has for its object the abolition of dueling among the peo- pie of continental Europe. It is a sub ject to which have given long and careful study. This article spoke of the formation of an international asso- cfation and among the champions of the proposed reform that noted gentle man, Don Alfonso di Bourbon. The great trouble with many of those who are trying to brea& the practice in Ger many, Austria, France and other parts of Europe is that they are atta cking it in the name of their religion. I am satisfied that this Is bad plan of com batting the evil. What we must do on the continent is to follow the example of England and the United States, to wit: Appeal to the common sense and make the code duello ridiculous.
 "Last summer I was, stopping at a aotel in Switzerland at which were some English and Russian army off, cers. A row arose one night and one of the Russians sent his English in- sulter challenge to fight. Of course, the challenge was declined, but it's re. cipient told everyone in the house and things were made so unbearable for tie Russians that they left.
 "Though I was brought up in an atmosphere favorable to this method Of settling quarrels, I abhor the duel and look upon 1t as relic of barbar- ism. It in reality settles nothing. for ,the man who has been outrageously 0ggrieved is quite as apt to be the vic tim as the one who has offended. The practice could easily be put down in

To Save Alpine Flowers.

Alpine flowers and plants are so quickly becoming extinct that strong measures are to be taken in future for their preservation. The prefect of the Alps (Savoy) has now issued a de- cree forbidding the uprooting of the edelweiss, the bee orchis, the blue thistle, the Alpine clematis, silver ge- ranium, mountain rhododendron, gen. tian, arnica and many other plants. The sale or transport of these plants Is also forbidden.-Geneva Cablegram to the London Express.

In the absence of suf- f1cient supply of poker chips acres of land were used as the basis of the bet ting. Of the group two carried away deeds to property that is now in the heart of Spindle Top, the famous oil district.
