C., Aug. 18.?Mrs. Margaret Jordan, of Anderson, S. C. .8 one of the biggest heirs of an escate of* $150,000,000, left by her uncle, Thomas Browning, a Texas oil man, according to the statemeift of J. H. Browning, of this city, her brother another heir of the vast fortune, mnde today. The estate will be divided among the children of Thomas C. Browning's five brothers and sisters. All the heirs ex<%pt the one here live in South Carolina Most of them in Greenville and Anderson counties. Thomas ,C. Browning, who amassed this tremendous fortune, left his .home at Old Hundred school house, in Greenvflle county, in 1858, at the age of 18, to make his fortune. When oil was discovered on his property in West Texas a number of years ago, he was rich. He died six years ago, without children, and the Texas authorities were unable to locate any heirs until last April. Mr. Browning is given to understand by his attorney that the heirs will receive their respective shares sometime between now and October. Mrs. Tex Holiday, Mrs. Emma Christeen, Lonheie Coke r and Thomas Coker all of Greenville county, are children of Mrs. Nancy Coker, sister of the oil mag-, nate, and hence heirs to the great | estate. I.ewis Browning, of Green-1 vilie county is another heir. In aH dition, there are ten children of Mrs. Joshia Chandler, who Mr. Browning believes lives in Greenville county, .but whose-names he does not know. A Doctor Bowman, a Greenville attorney who represents Mr. Browning and some of the other heirs are in Texas now, settling up the 'estate. Col. Sob Arnold of, Laurens county, is one of the witnesses of the heirs, having known the millionaire as a boy. The story of this alleged great fortune in Texas is not new in Greenville, for some months ago The News published a story relative to the same supposed estate. At that time it will be remembered Mary and Martha Ana Pike, half-sistets of Talbert A. Pike, superintendent of the Greenville county home, were supposed to be possible heirs of this Browning estate, their relation to Browning having come, it was thought, through their mother, win was a Miss Edwards. An investigation was commenced through a local legal firm, and the case is understood to have been in their hands, bu* 1 so far nothing definite has been reported to .Mr. Pike, who is looking after the Interests of his, sisters, who * w ' ' ' * ' _ # r# i- . . . _.?> Mij J 11 + Sold only In tin 3 CrinklyBottk '3 vJT A\ 'u. ! 4 !< i HogsreiSIcatF The three "Crush" ilrinks . ^ get their flavors from the delicate fruit oils prfssed from the fresh outer skint ? or orange*, lemons or limes, to which are added juice* ?S from these fruits, cane * . sugar, U. 8. certified food ' color, carbonated water and M citric acid, the natural arid of oranges, lemon* and lime*.

The telegram' from Green makes reference to a "Doctor Bowman," a Greenville attorney, who 4* stated .to be in Texas investigatingthe affair. As no attorney of this name could be located, it wise supposed that the reference waft * to "Proctor A. Bonham," well known member of the Greenville bar. Acting on this clew, The News interviewed Mr. Bonham last night at him home on Prentiss avenue. Mr. Bonham was somewhat mystified over the affair, and showed the reporter a letter which Mrs. Bonham bad received during the last few day3 from J. H. Browning, in Greensboro. The letter was plainly written in a very legible hand and informed Mrs. 1 Bonhani that her husband was then in Texas making an investigation of the estate of the late Thomas C.' Browning, valued at a hundred .and fifty million dollars. Mr. Bonham evidently did not regard the matter seriously, and declared that this was the first news that he had received that he was in Texas, or had any connection with the alleged estate. He said, however, that he had understood that some investigation had been made by a legal firm and that they had not been able to get definite information about the fortune. Press Seeks to Revive Turkey's Economic Life < . Constantinople, Aug. 21.?A campaign for the revival of industrial activity in Turkey has been, started by '.he Turkish press. The influential lieri, a morning r.ewsp.^er, says: rne slow extinction of Moslem economic activity has been going on now for several years. This can only serve the Interests of our enemies, who observe our lamentabte economic situation and gain the idea that the day will soon come when the Turkish nation will die out automatically. k "We must arouse ourselves to this danger. Day by dayaour commerce and industry are bidding us fare- well. We are selling to strangers our house properties and our rea! estate, and very soon we shall begin selling them our furniture and moveable property. Turks must awake from their slumber; they must link their private life to' the national needs. They must economize and save and work, remembering that to waste a. single piastre Is an attack nnnn f hp tmHnnol ^aatlnn " r-L ?" ???""/ Ysleta, Texas, is the Oldest town in the United States, according to tradition.
