Linda O'Malley ami Winnie Sexton Arc Close to the 200 MnrU Tills The school girls' voting contest starts off with a list of 105 contestants- The school girls of St. Paul are tak ing a deep interest in the voting con test inaugurated by the Globe. The first coupon was printed in Wednes day's Globe, and at the end of the first four days, as will be seen by the list below, the votes have been brought in at a lively rate and already the 'white ballots have accumulated in thousands. It is evident that this will prove to be the most successful and most interesting "election" of this sort ever held in the Northwest. The people in passing Newspaper Row all pause to look at the dainty, the handsome and the rich presents Which will be given the winners. These articles are on exhibition in a window of the Globe counting room, and every one in turning away speaks warmly of the G1 o b c's enterprise m giving the contest, and also speak ad miringly of the magnificent rewards for the lucky girls receiving the most votes. In the contest thus far, three of the girls are very closely matched for first place, Miss Stella Vervais leading with ■22'J, Mips Nellie Ahem with 224, and Miss Francis O'Brien with 200. Miss Linda O'MaJley makes a strong show ing with 188 to her credit, as does also Miss Winnie Fexton with 17S. It is not yet clearly understood by seme, that the coupons will be printed only in the papers delivered to sub scribers; they are not in the copies on sale on the street or at the Globe counter, nor are thty even in the pa pers furnished employes. A number of Inquiries have been made at the ecu n.tcr for papers in quantities, in or der to obtain the coupons, hence this repeated explanation. It may not be clear to some, also, that the school girls in parochial schools, as well as the public and pri vate schools are eligible; the Globe lih!s you all welcome and invites you t'i participate in the contest. The vot ing has only just commenced, so now is the time to map <>ut your campaign and l>e represented in the next an nouncement of the standing of the contestants, which will be in next Sun day's Globe.

"AlmOIO," the Kamo'us Painting-, to lie Exhibited Here An arrangement has been effected with Baron Arpad Paszthory, who went through St. Paul last Sunday on hi? way to the West, to give a public exhibition of his remarkable painting, •"Almozo," the story of which has at tracted so much attention in this coun try and in Europe. The painting has never before been seen in public, and was never seen at all in the United States until last Tuesday evening, when a number of critics viewed it privately at the Metropolitan hotel. It is a marvel of aesthetic beauty and a sensation in art, according to those who saw it the other evening, and is bound to create more astonishment than any large canvas among the lot brought over in the past ten years. It is unlike any picture hitherto pub licly exhibited, and will cause un bounded astonishment at the marvel ous skill and vigorous imagination of the painter in delineating the beauties of Countess Zichy, who was the model for the work. Almozo will be publicly exhibited for sume days at 389 Wa basha street, near Sixth. i;JBPS SAXXT PAUL GLOBE: SUNDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1897. ASSAu/rrcD by strangers. Aatliony Roelile Knocked Down l»> Two ItoiiK'i'H. Anthony Koehle, an elderly man liv ing 'at Delano, Minn., was assulted and roughly handled by two strangers, at Ninth and St. Peter streets, shortly after 12 o'clock last night. The object of the attack is speculative. Mr. Roehle la in doubt as to whether or not rob bery was intended and could give only an indefinite description of his assail ants. He was walking on St. Peter street, when just as he reached the corner of Ninth, the two men sprang upon him. He received several blows In quick succession, knocking him to the sidewalk, when the strangers took to their heels. The old man was con siderably bruised about the face and also received a slight cut across the cheek. The police investigated the affair, as far as possible, on Roehle's story and claim that he was simply attacked by 'a couple of roughs who were under the influence of liquor and locking for a fight. Roehle is stopping at the Richelieu hotel. BY ORDER OF THE COURT I am to advertise for bids on the bal ance of the bankruptcy stock of pianos and organs of the Century Piano Company, to be received and opened next Thursday, Oct. 28, on the basis of what remains of said stock on next Wednesday, Oct. 27, at 6 p. m.

She is richer than Hetty Green, and her name is Mrs. Richard King. She is a cattle queen and the owner of the largest ranch in the world. Figures convey but indistinctly the extent of Mrs. King's domain. For instance, unless you are a surveyor, you will probably^ fail to realize the greatness of her possessions from the simple statt-ment that she owns 1,250,000 acres, or nearly 2,000 square miles of land. It may convey the idea more clearly to say that her ranch is larger than some of the New England states, and that her front gate is thirteen miles' from her front door, as the crow flieK. She has forty miles of water front, and her barbed wire fences stretch out over 300 miles. She could drive in a straight line sixty-five miles without trespassing on the property of hiT neighbors or leaving her own ranch. This vast estate, over which Mrs. King is absolute monarch, is located in that southern point of Texas which seems to project down into Mexico. Her seacoast lies along Corpus Chrisu bay. Should Mrs. King ever wish to secede from the Union, she could an chor a big lleet off her possessions. She already has a standing army of 300 cowboys, who are supplied witli 1,200 ponies for their sole use. The cow boys, however, are employed in the peaceful pursuit of looking alter Mis. King's great herds of "scalawags," or long-horned cattle, which number something like 200,000. Almost in the center of her estates Hi" p:» lice-like chateau of this cattle rjueen stands. It is on an eminence and Borroundlg it, after the manner of ancient baronial estates, are the nu merous and modest cottages of her , hundreds of dependents. Beyoi.d them are acres on acres of tilled fields, which a short time ago were green and gold with waving corn and grain. In th* distance, stretching far out of si«%rfTa a fertile wilderness on which grows m*iS((uite and cactus and over which graze her great herds. ■* During the best part of the year Mrs. King lives on her ranch, and her home there is supplied with every luxury and convenience to be found in any man sion or. Fifth avenue. When she wishes a change, she moves down to Corpus Chriatl, a city just on the edge of her domains, where she has another pala tial residence. She built the branch railroad which has its terminus in Cor pus Christi. Mrs. King is a widow and is now about sixty years of age. She is a daughter of the late Rev. Hiram Chamberlain, a missionary, *^\\o estab lished the first Presbyterian church* south of the Rio Grande, and who w nt there with Bible and staff to preach to the Indians. When a young worna/i. she met and married Capt. Richard King, who was one of the pioneers of the great Southwest. He was born in IS:." in New York state, and when a boy of ten ran away from home to be come a sailor. In 1847 he appeared on the Rio Grande as a pilot and later be came a boat owner. Capt. King was an adventurous ap ulator. He foresaw the possible future of that great country, and, with the profits of his steamboating business, he purchased the Santa Gertrudes ran-h, then in itself a vast possession. By • shrewd management and daring ; ness ventures, which turned out suc cessfully, he was able to add to his possessions from time to time until at his death he had acquired a big Blice of this part of the Lone Star state. On his broad acres 80,000 of cattle, 20,000 horses and 20,000 k!: Besides this he had accumulated i great deal of personal property and had a big bank account. The v. vast estate, of which the land alone was worth $5,000,000, he left in fee pie to his widow. . — Jennie Moore?. DnrbesK Dead.
