into a thoroughly regal abode, her
summers being usually spent at some
chateau in the neighborhood of the
capital. and which she hired for the
season.
Only twice did she return to Spain,
namely, during her sons lifetime,
and then he was forced to ask her to
leave the kingdom, owing to the fact
that the opponents of his government
endeavored to take advantage of her
presence and of her good nature to
make capital against the administra
ton. Her grandson, the present king
has in consequence been a stranger
to her until now. For although she
was anxious to visit Spain during his
minority for the purpose of seeing
him, it was considered at Madrid that
her presence in the kingdom would
merely contribute to increase the diff.
fculties of the foreign-born queen re-
gent, and incidentally impair the safe.
ty of the throne.
But she has always been treated
with the utmost distinction and honor
while abroad by the Spanish court
and government, which latter repeat

incurred, owing to her excessive
generosity and her inability to com

HERECCENTRIC
LIFE
isabella II of Spain
ImpeIled to an En-
ratio Career
Late N0bIew0man Noted for
Her Kind Deeds and Gen.
erOuS Impulse

Former Queen Isabella of Spain,
recently died in Paris, had a career
that was not surprising since it prac.
tically began with a misalliance
brought about by the duplicity of her
mother.
Isabella H., as she was known, was
the daughter of Ferdinand VII. and Of
Marie Christina, daughter Of the king
of Naples, and was born October 10,
1880. On the repeal of the Salic law,
which provided that a woman could
not reign, she assembled the throne
under the regency of her mother, in
1888.
From her 14th year Europe was
secured by the queens mother for a
husband, and, finally, despite Isabella's
persistent refusal to marry him, she
became the wife Of Don Francisco
D'Asslsi, duke of Cadiz, who was her
first cousin. Don Francisco was never
well known to the people OF wen his
own country, and, being more or less
OF an invalid, the care Of the state
fell entirely into the hands of Isabella,
then but 16 years old.
Queen Isabella was "A years old
at the time of her death, which de.
prlves the French capital of one Of
the most picturesque and notable
members of it's colony Of 'rois en-
exil," so wildly portrayed by Alphon.

that is to say, for a period Of nearly
thirty years.
No scion of royalty, with the pos
sible exception of the late King Milan
of servia, has ever furnished so much
material to the "chronique scandal
euse" of the courts of Europe as Isa
bella, and, while many Of the stories
related of her are calumny, pure and
simple, there is no doubt that by her
extravagances of conduct, one might
almost add her moral e%ccentrici-
ties, she helped to give an APP
pearance of truth to even the vilest
SANDERS that were originated pre-
vious to her deposition by her
brother-in-law, the late. Due de Mont
pensier, and his party, and after the
establishment of her residence in
Paris by those scribes who
had failed in their attempts to extort
money from her by means of black
mail.
With all her faults, and they have
been many, 1t must be confessed that
she always remained a ~kind-hearted,
generous woman, whose innumerable
acts of charity will doubtless be
credited to her in the great here

10000 Bales of Cotton Annually.

These valley farms and the fertile river islands furnish Guntersville with about 10000 bales of cotton per annum Corn, small grain and the grasses are grown in abundance, and the fruit crop here abouts Is source of profit. Guntersville ships quite large number of cattle to the markets; and like other towns along this line receives much revenue from the poultry and egg industry. Socially Gun tersvile is a moral town. There are no saloons here. Three churches adorn the city, and there is a large public school well attended
 Guntersville can boats especially of her new and modern hotel. The Guntersvile Hotel, completed last fall is a handsome and comfortable structure. It contains twenty rooms; has furnace heat, hot and cold water baths, and is lighted by It's own gas plant. This hotel is under the ownership and management of Mrs. Brooking Samuel a daughter of the late General ayburn. and It's service and gem eral comforts are superb
 Much Mineral Are Present.
 Agriculture is not all that makes Gun tersviles possibilities great, for the town is in the midst of rich beds of iron ores and of minerals too numerous here to mention; though there has been no real or pronounced development along this line. Quite recently rich and immense deposit of onix has been discovered at point near here and samples shown the writer today indicate that it is of rare quality. Specimens have been shipped to experts in this line and they pronounce the find exceedingly valuable. It is ex- pected that the property will be fully de- veloped at an early day.
 The Guntersville Democra,, by Editor c. G. Bennett. is faithful journalistic exponent of Guntersville and is much ap preciated by this commu unity.
 The Bank of Guntersville, with a cash capital of s50.O00, is a f1ourishing financial institution. Dr. l.. D. Lusk is president; W. M. Baker, vice-president, and w. M. Cantrell, cashier.

Seventeenth infantry. and Wampler Company D, Twenty-third in- fantry, were killed. very effort was made to bring the Moros to terms peace- fully, but in each instance our troops were attacked before firing a shot and force was only used when all peaceful methods failed and the enemy attack ed us.
 The two chiefs who have been at the bottom of all the trouble on the east side of Lader are now in hiding, and they will be arrested If possible. General Wade, to whom General Woods report was made transmitted 1t to the depart ments. adds that the condition of the Taraca valley for the last three months has been such as to render the above action absolutely necessary.

 How about the objections made to your plan?"
 ''The courts will pass upon them," said MT. Hill with some impatience.
 I'm proud of some facts regarding the Northern Securities company" continued MT. Illl. We put together a corpora ton with a capital of S4OO 000,0O0 Now that we are forced to take 1t apart, We are fortunate in being able to do so with an increase In the assets of the company of s400oO,OOO
 The total cost of making and main taining that property for two and one half years was only s147O0O. That is about three hundredths of one per cent of the capitalization. There is no room there for a big rake-off for promoters or officers" concluded Mir. Hill laughingy.
 ''Is MT. Harriman's protest in the courts against your plan for division of the assets of the Northern Securities company to be regarded as friendly suit?'
 Mir Hll's manner changer instantly. His eyes fairly flashed as he said:
 Let MT. Hartman answer that ques- ton. I do not propose to pass judgment on that man or his motives MT Harri man is undoubtedly trying to secure eon- trol of the Northern Pacific. That is easy enough for any one to see. However, the laws of several of the states through which the Oregon Short Line and the Northern Pacific run are utterly opposed to such ownership or control and pre- sume he would be prevented from ac- complishing his purpose by those laws Asked whether Mir. Hartman would se- cure control of the road in event the courts sustain his views regarding the redistribution of Great Northern and Northern Pacific stock, Mir.
