Lucius Battle, aged about fifty years brother of Associate Justice B. E Battle of the supreme court, died al the Judson Hotel, New York City August 2S, and Justice Battle arrived in Little Rock with the remains Sun. daJ night.
 For IS years Justice Battle and the entire family had mourned Lucius Battle as dead. His death was SUD- posed to have occurred near Louisville Ky, in a railroad wreck. The parti- culars of the wreck were reported in the dispatches and the name of Lucius Battle appeared among those who were killed. His papers and effects were found in the wreck and his body was recognized before interment. The family grieved over the untimely death of their relative, and during all these years no one ever dreamed that he was not only alive but a prominent factor in the industrial de- velopment of another country.
 A few weeks ago Justice Battle re- ceived letter from a professional nurse in New York City informing him that his brother Lucius Battle was i'll at the Judson hotel with acute heart disease, and that if he wished to see him he should hasten to his bedside. It is needless to say Justice Battle was beset with doubts and that the receipt of the letter caused a flutter of excitement in the family circle. Justice Battle replied to the nurse asking if any financial aid was desired to which letter he received a prompt response that the sick man had ample means and that his bills were paid Justice Battle then realized the possibility of some terrible mistake the sick man. He did so, and though Lucius Battle had grown thin and emaciated from a long spell of ill., ness, though much changed from the IS years of separation. the brothers immediately recognized each other, and for six weeks Justice Battle has remained faithfully at the bedside of the brother he had mourned IS years ago. Death at last relieved the ten sion, and the strange traveller who has been absent from his home, and mourned by his kindred as dead for so long time, is brought home at last to sleep quietly in the old cemetery.
 The story of Lucius Battles strange career is scarcely surpassed. in the realms of fiction. He was in the Louis
