Texas Laxd axd Mortgage Compaxt
Limited vs Jot Gcxter j
Plaintiff sues as a British corporation to
recover on a note given by d fendant for a
loan of money made to him by plaintiff on
30th of July 1S91 and to foreclose a deed of
trust to lands in Texas given by defendant
to secure payment of tha note Plaintiff al-
leges that in accordance with the provisions
of a law of Texas requiring foreign corpor-
ations desiring to transact business in
Texas to file with the secretary of state a
certified copy of its articles of incorpora-
tion it filed such articles and took out a
permit to carry on its business in Texas for
ten i ears for which it paid to tha secretary
a fee of 200 as required by said law
Defendant excepted to the petition tho
exception requiring a construction of tho
alien land law passed by the legislature at
its last session and a decision as to its con-
stitutionality Judsro Tucker decided first
that tho law was not intended to prohibit
aliens or alien corporations from taking
mortgages upon land but only from becom-
ing the owners of land or of any interest in-
land and that a mortgage did not create
such an interest in land under the meaning
of the law Second that tho granting of
the permit to plaintiff created a contract
protected under the clause of the constitu-
tion of the United States prohibiting states
from passing any law impairing tho obliga-
tion of a contract and that the reserved
police powers of the state would not apply
to such contract as it in no way affected
the Dublic health public morals or public
safety and third that the title of the act
was not in compliance with the provisions
of the state constitution that no bill shall
contain more than one subject which shall
be expressed in its title th < title of the
act in question not expressing any subject
whatever

What Two 3IissonrI GlrU do In the Way of
ralmlnc No Men About at
Any Season
Special to the Gazette
Adiuax Mo Oct 13 Kansas is not
the only state which can show womans
ability to care for herself for there is a
farm near this place where two unmarried
women carry on tho wholo business of the
place and have no men about at any season
of tho year Miss Sallio ond Miss Polly
Brundige have a fortyacre farm about ten
miles west of this place and they havo
been caring for it for the past nine years
and during that time they have never had
the assistance of a man All the work has
been done by the two women with tho ex
ceDtion of having another woman to help
them during the time they were gathering
their com They raise no wheat nor other
small grain but have an orchard and corn-
field while they devote most of their atten-
tion to raising chickens and bees They
plant thirty acres of corn every year and
attend to it entirely doing the plowing and
gathering
Miss Sallie is the business man of tha
place and while attending to the work in
the field always wears the clothing of a
man She drives to town as often in mans
clothing as in that of a woman and has no
hesitancy in saying that some day she will
cntircls discard dresses This year the
two ladies have a crop of corn which will
average seventy bushels to the acre In ad-
dition to this they haTe over a thousand
chickens and a large number of turkeys and
ducks which they think will clear them
for the years work not less than two thou-
sand dollars The ladies keep up with the
times and take several agricultural papers
as well as one daily and are probably bet-
ter informed on current events than most
of their neighbors by whom they are held
in high esteem The ladies are both past
forty years of age and are looked upon as
being wealthy for they have the best im
provedf arm in the country with fine stock
and good improvements They brofco the
prairie and fenced the place the only help
they had being the carpenters who built
the house for them nine years ago Miss
Polly has been eoted school director s > T

The Jail Well Lost
Special to the Gazette
ArcmE Mo Oct 13 Ever since this
town has been in existence it bai been ter-
rorized by a negro named William Verdcr
who was a typical tough and whose actions
were such that the whole population stood
in fear of him Tho man was well awara
of the dread which he inspired and was net
slow to take advantage of it He did not
rob but ho was known as a desperado of
the worst type and when he entered a
store and asked for credit he always got it
although the storekeeper knew that ho
never would pay for tho goods Tho negro
had never been molested by the officers of
tho law for they were chosen more for tha
purpose of keeping stray cows outof tha
yards than for caring for criminals or law
violators Some time ago the town took a
spasm and built a calaboose in which it
was determined to place those who Tiolated
the ordinances Verder openly defied the
officers and told them that ho would butt
to death the first man who offered to arrest
himAbout
About a month ago the house of Yerders
father wa3 burned and when Bill camo out
he discovered that he had left his watch
hanging on ths wall and returned to get it
While inside the flames cut off his way to
the front door and ha groped his way to
the rear and bdtted the door from its
hinges making his escape He was much
elated over his feat and said that if he wa3
ever placed in the jail he would get out tha
same way He seemed determined to get
there and was arrested but to the surprise
of everyone made no resistance and went
laughing to the calaboose That night tha
town was aroused by a fire and found tha
Jail burning Verder had obtained matches
and set it on firebut he made a miscalcu-
lation for he was unable to butt tho door
down and perished in the flames befosj ha
could bo got out He smothered in tha
close room and his charred remains were
all that could be found The people are ot
tho opinion that tha jail was well lost
