the case has been presented to the
senate by these managers Judge
Swayne would be given an opportu.

Judge Swayne was appointed In 1890

appointed. He lived in Delaware.

seized for smuggling; also for being
drunk and using profane language on

Judge Chase, Of Pennsylvania. was
impeached for refusing to allow law
yer to address the court or the jury

Judge Peck, of Missouri, was charged

JOHN BOYN, FARMER
RECOGNIZED BY MANY AS HEIR
TO sERVIAN THRONE.
Minnesota Prstender Is Descendant
OF Milos obrenovitch - King.
Peter Looking. for a Chance
to .Abdicate.
London (Eng.) Special.

London (Eng) Special.
The announcement that the king of
Servia would like to abdicate has revived
the story of the American heir to the
throne, in the person of John Boyn, a
Minnesota farmer, whose father, Au-
gust Boyn, was said to be an heir to the
throne of that country, and who, it is
claimed, died in that country many years
ago by the hand of an assassin.
A writer in the st. James Gazette, in
discussing the rumors that King Peter
would like to let 60 because he is disap-
pointed with his people, says the world
contains lot of pretenders to the throne
who do not really pretend because they
prefer to keep off that dangerous eleva-
ton. The most interesting of these pre-
tenders, says the writer, is the Minnesota
farmer, John Boyn, believed to be de-
scended from Milos Obrenovitch, and
through him connected with the Servian
ruler.
The mother of John Boyn lives in a
modest little cottage among the ever
green's and jackpines near Rum river, a
few miles from Princeton, Mimi She is
"a years old, but for one of her age is
apparently hale and hearty. Small of
stature and with her shrunken form bent
with infirmities of old age. she still shows
that she was in her youth comely wo-
man for one of her race, and had Dame
Fortune made her queen Of Seryia she
would have graced the throne Of that
country of social and political volcanoes
with as much dignity as many Of the
happy and unhappy rulers of Europe.
She did not know much about her hus-
bands kingly inheritance which it has
been claimed he went to Servia to seek.
He told his folks he had large inheri-
lance awaiting him in Servia, and de-
cided, to. 60 over to that country in 1887
to secure the wealth. His wife and chill
dren begged him not to leave them, but
l.: promised to return soon with money
enough to make them all rich.
He had no idea of attempting to regain
his royal rights other than portion Of
the fortune which was due him. He
wrote his wife from Belgrade after his
arrival. In a few weeks she received
word through the American consul that
her husband was dead. Subsequent

Wonderful Catch of Fish.

One of the most phenomenal catches
of fish on record has just been made at
Oceanside, Los Angeles, Cal. T. J. Nc
Garvin and three assistants ran their
seine through the surf and then were
unable to pull it in, owing to the enor-
nous amount of fish they had taken. A
team of horses was sent for and attached,
and still the catch could not be landed.
A second team was procured and the
united effort of men and teams drew the
wonderful catch to the shore. Most of
the fish were of the kinds known as yell
lovfin croakers and blackfin croakers,
fish about 10 inches in length and weigh

New York Special.
A house with q tower built of grave

be found in the little town of Sheffield,
Mass. The house is the property of E
F. Mccormick, Of Hudson, N. Y. and is
occupied by his parents. On the face

spectacle, but that on Mr.. McCormicl1's

the case.
1t is far cry from doing service
through untold years as a marker
above the grave of some hero who fell
in the defence OF his flag and the SIM
pie duty of keeping cakes of ice from
the sun. But if it be true chat it is only
a step from the sublime to the ridicu-
l0us, it is equally true that it Is only
| a step further from the sacred to the

that the story of how house in thu

meets itself with the civil war and the

marble was counted the finest to be

the owner Of quarry there was
awarded contract to cut markers for
the graves of soldiers who fell in the
civil war and were buried in the gov

about three feet long and six inches
square, having a number near one
end. This was about the time that
Tammany hall was in its greatest
glory in New York city and the Shef-
field quarry was under the direction Of

Der Boyn. He had common education,
and was by trade cabinetmaker. The
farm his wife now occupies was pre-
empted by him. The son of old John
Boyn, whom the writer in the st. James
Gazette asserts is more nearly the d.
rect heir to the throne than all other
pretenders, lives short distance from
Princeton and near the home of his
mother. Though he stoutly maintains
his heirship to the throne now held by
Peter Karageorgevitch, he is not worry
ing over the situation.
According to authentic accounts,
Boyn's grandfather when mere child
was rescued during an invasion of the
Turks by being carried by his nurse into
a field and hidden, he being the only
member of the family to escape. The
child was taken to Saxony, where he was
brought up and in time married and
raised family, August (John's father)
being the only son. It appears that the
Turks wiped out the royal family from
which the Boyns descended, and Johns
grandfather preferred to remain in
peace in Saxony rather than try sitting
on the insecure throne of his native
country. ...
The nurse who rescued the GRANDPA
Their also carried with her the family
Bible and records, and when the child
grew up he received the family record,
which in time went to August, who kept
it inviolate. When he returned to Servia
he took the Bible with him. but the
book and all the records were lost, as
they disappeared when he died in Bel
