At Last Ho Finiia His Match In a
Texas Cowboy.
For Onco In Ills Life tho rowpous Elng
master Meets with a Man Who
Walks Oft with the
Frlze.
The cowboy in riding' ability is
thought by many to bo almost like the
mythical centaur a part of the horse
that he travels upon. Of course a good
many erroneous impressions are enter
tained in regard to the reckless cow
puncher's qualifications as an eques
trian. Hut it is a fact that some of
these fellows are very fearless and are
excellent riders It is a common boast
among them that they can ride "any
animal thai wears hair."
A few days ago Adam I'nrepaugh's
circus mnde its appearance in one of the
western Texas towns, says the Kansas
City Union. The day the circus came
was as is usual in small towns a great
holiday. The people turn out from far
and near to see the wonderful procession
in the morning nud the still greater
performance in the ;:fternoon. The big
elephant, vthi'di, of course, was the
largest on earth, the savage lions and
Ucngal tigers with their tamers locked
in the ages all wert? there, and each
Dne contributed to make up the excite
ment that is n lways created .by "the
greatest show on earth" in a small town.
At the afternoon performance, after the
acrobats hud turned their double somer
saults over llii-ee elephants and five
horses, and the iron-jawed lady had
been pulled several limes, swinging by
her teeth, to the top of the tent then
it was that the irrepressible little trick
mule was li'd forth. Here is where my
story begins.
The ringmaster drew himself up in a
very important manner anil announced
In loud tones that there was a standing
offer of ten dollars to anyone who
would ride tho gentle little mule. The
ringmaster, as everyone knows, is a
very necessary attache of a circus and
is generally up in his business. This
one, however, missed his mark on this
particular occasion. lie had evidently
forgotten what people the circus was
among at that time or had likely never
informed himself about tho native
western Texan as a rider. Nevertheless,
the proposition was scarcely announced,
when a long, cadaverous cow puncher,
Hank Audci'.,oii, stepped forth and said:
"Mr. Ringmaster, I'll jes' go yer one
on tlvtt little talk you're makin'."
' Hank had evidently been imbibing
some of the ardent fluid, but was not
intoxicated enough to effect his activi
ty, lie seemed to be just about reck
less enough to attempt most anything.
As he lazily approu -hod the ring his ac
quaintances in I ho audience who
knew him to be one of the boldest and
most expert riders in all of that coun
try greeted him with such shouts as:
"That's right, Haul;, stay with 'em; that
little jack rabbit can't throw you."
The demure looking little mule was
patiently waiting in the ring. It
seemed 1
w what was about to take
place. Hank
lank logs were
the little ani:-i
head and t .veil
ning ami d. 1
around the n i
as aspinni.ig v.
ing on its !' ii
mounted and his long,
lightly wrapped around
a I. The beast turned his
il i ridcrwith a most etiti
.i;.h look and started out
'.' jumping around as fast
. heel. Then it tried walk
,'e feet, then on its hind
ones, then rp it went in the air and
seemed t.i i , ri'. .rut a somersault when
it hit the gi-.mnd perfectly stiff legged.
As tin' tie: t cleared away Hank could
be seen p. i lied upon the mule's bock
right side up. ami a Iniuiiphant smile
seemed lii 'al across his euuntcnunco.
The lull ia thee proceedings only last
ed for a f 'v in incuts. Then the de
termined little beast was again up in
the air going through, the same
maneuvers ns il did nt first, only in a
more vigor.. t.s Manner. Again Hank
reinniiie.1 Ih-mly hi his seat. The mule
then re rt.nl t the s. heme of lying
down and roivig over and over. These
tactics pr, .ve I ais i unsuccessful, as the
rider w.;.l : iiMpl..' dismount and wait
until the t.'i !. in. Tie hud risen to it
feet, v I'.e.i he v. .uM mount again quick
lis a la, h. I'mally the little beast
seemed to draw itself together for a
last an, I mighty effort: it gathered itf
legs up ( loselv, hemped its back and
shot up in the air like it rocket. This
was repeated numerous times in rapid
succession, mid each time old Hank ap
peared on top, smiling as coolly as if
nothing ha.l t alien p'.a -e.
At last the mischievous little beast
fell broadside upon the earth from sheer
exhaustion mid rolled its little eyes up
at Hank with a submissive anil con
quered look which seemed to say: .
"1 have tlo'own many a rider, but at
last have cu t more than my match."
The ringmaster turned over the ten
doliarsand saiil that he was satisfied anil
that Hunk had accomplished his task.
The way the audience yelled indicated
that it, too, was satisfied The mule
walked away with its head drooping
and plainly showed that it wa-s perfectly
willing and satisfied to let tlauk walk
off with the honors und thus inj an tin,
pleasant struggle.

A JUDICIAL KINDERGARTEN. 7
effective Vie of a sign Language In Sen
tencing a I'rlaoner.
Once upon a time, says the San Fran
cisco Examiner, there was a judge
named Eedman, who presided over a
big territory, which kept him racing
from Santa Cruz to Salinas and San
Luis Obispo. The Spanish population
was the chief race to be found in that
district, and Redman knew but two
words in that language, which were
"No tiende, " and was put to the neces
sity of employing a court interpreter,
who attended him in his rapid tour ol
tho big circuit.
It happened that a murderer was to
be sentenced in Monterey and that an
important trial must be attended, miles
away, on the same day. Kedman's in
terpreter had gone off to a fandango in
the wilds somewhere and could not be
found when court was opened, and Bed
man was in a fury of impatience. At
last, when he could endure the delay
no longer, he said to the man below in
the dock:
"Prisoner at the bar stand upl"
"No tiende," said the man, shaking1
his head stupidly.
"You don't savey, do you?" exclaimed
the judge sharply. "Well, do you un
derstand this?" and he proceeded to
gesticulate vigorously with his hands
and indicate the motion of rising.
The man finally comprehended and
arose stillly in his seat.
"Prisoner at the bar, it is the sentence
of this court that you be token from the
place whence you came on Friday, the
27th day of Juno next, be hanged by
the neck until you are dead, and may
God have mercy on your soul. Now,
do you savey that?"
The poor prisoner shook his head in a
bewildered fashion, and could only cry:
"No tiende, no tiende."
"Is there anybody preBent in this
court who can translate that awful
sentence to this prisoner?" demanded
the judge of the half a dozen of officials
and spectators in tho room. They were
in the same boat as the prisoner, and
could only shake their heads mourn
fully. "Well," cxtdaimed tho judge, a bright
thought Btriking him: "I'll just show
you, then, this way:" whereupon he un
reeled a. yard of red tape that lay on his
desk, and, twisting it hurriedly about
his own neck, held the two ends high
over his left ear, at tho same time roll
ing his eyes and wagging his tongue
down against his chin.
A dreadful groan went up from the
prisoner and from the others in the
court room. They understood the grim
judicial kindergarten completely.
AN AWFUL FALL.
It Was Two Miles, Hut the Fattier Vfm
Not Hurt.
The experimenter was Lieut. Mana
fleld of tho Royal Naval Reserve, says
London Invention. Ho made his ascent
from tho Victoria gardens recently, sit
ting upon a trapeze immediately be
neath the balloon, to which was also
attached a parachute of a new fashion.
The whole rose to a height which ren
dered even the big balloon itself scarce
ly visible in the cloudless sky. It was
now, as appears from this brave sea
man's narrative, at an altitude of eleven
thousand four hundred feet, or mon
than two milos, commanding a vas
horizon, but the voyager's hands wen
so numbed that ho was becoming un
able to foci tho cords. "Then," sayii
Lieut Mansfield, "finding my apparatus
all clear, I took tho balloon ring in
my right hand, drew myself clear of
tho trapeze and dropped down into
space." After descending with terrible
velocity for some distance the para
chnto began to open. At ten thousand
two hundred feet he was falling at a
great speed, but was fully able to con
trol tho apparatus. At ten thousand
feet ho was sailing down calmly into
space. Then he drifted to and fro in
various counter currents, and at one
thousand feet exactly felt the heat
from a long, red, iron chimney. Now
comes tho moro remarkable part of the
narrative. "Steering my parachute," he
continued, "to tho eastward, I dropped
her rapidly to clear the buildings
ahead, and, seeing nothing but houses
to descend on, I selected tho flattest I
could find and dropped gently down on
it." A spectator who watched the voy
age from tho gardens gives a vivid ac
count of straining the eyes till he was
just ablo to discern a tiny whito speck
on the bluo sky. After what seemed a
terrible length of timo, Lieut Mans
field became visible swinging under the
parachute, and working tho valve lines
so as to insure a safe landing when he
chose to make it. "Such a complete
master of tho air," says the eye-witness,
"has never been seen before in this coun
try." The balloon fell, as was Intend
ed, in tho sea, where, being fitted with
cork belts for tho purpose, it was easily
recovered. Lieut. Mansfield, who looks,
for great advantages from his manage
able parachute in naval operations, has
announced that his next ascent will b
with an entirely new apparatus, spa
tially adapted to military warfaru.

FAMOUS HUNTERS.
Hen Who Slay Mighty Wild Animals with
Lances.
In Sig. Gessi's "Seven Years In the
Soudan" the author describes "the
brothers Duma," two hunters "re
nowned from Eaka to the Victoria
Nyanza." They were in the habit of
killing the buffalo, the rhinoceros and
the leopard the fiercest animals of the
country with no more emotion than a
European would experience in shooting
rabbits. They were often sent t yt from
different parts to kill some Hon which
was doing great mischief. Of their ele
phant hunting the author says:
In all the villages the brothers found
an enthusiastic welcome, the people
knowing that wherever they were meat
was never 'wanting. Both men were
strong limbed and of uncommon agility.
When an elephant rushed upon them
they calmly awaited him and at the
right moment leaped to one side. The
elephant, not being able to stop, turned
toward one of the two brothers and
the other plunged a lance into his side.
The animal then quitted the first man
and fell upon the one who had wounded
him, and at that instant the other cut
the tendons of the hind legs, bringing
the elephant to the ground.
One day, however, one of the brothers
was near falling a victim to his bold
ness. He attacked an elephant alone
in the usual way, but stumbled and fell.
He rose directly, but the elephant hail
already seized him in his trunk, and
hurled him to a distance of fifteen feet.
Fortunately he fell in the middle of a
thick bush and escaped with some
scratches and bruises.
Flis friends laughed at the accident
and the next day he said: "I would
rather cat my wife seven times than not
take my revenge."
Hesetout again, refusing the com
pany of his brother. Late in the even
ing he returned and called the village
together. "Come," he said, "help me
bring in the tusks, and take as much
meat for yourselves as you like."
All the population followed him. He
had killed nine huge elephants.
SHE SURPRISED THEM.
How a I.lUle ,111ns Turned failure Into a
Glorious Success,
Presence of mind has turned defeat
into victory for generals on the battle
field, for statesmen in the senate cham
ber and for lawyers in the courtroom.
It is a rare gift, but a very young wom
an who lives in the little town of Haw
thorne, in the pine woods of Florida,
possesses it to an unusual degree, says
an exchange. The Sunday school tc
which she belongs recently gave a Sunday-school
concert, and, 'though she is
hardly five years old, she showed such
willingness to contribute to the success
of the occasion that she was intrusted
by the teacher with the recitation of a
verse.
She applied herself to her task, and at
the preliminary rehearsal acquitted her
self to tho delight of her teacher and
the envy of her classmates.
The Sunday afternoon came at last.
The church was crowded and the exer
cises began. The little girl was in s
flutter. At hist the long-waited mo
ment arrived and the superintendent
announced her name. She toddled
bravely up the aisle and with the help
of his hand mounted the steps and stood
on the platform facing the people.
"Oh, what a lot of folks all looking
at me!" she thought.
In fact, like many an older person in
a similar situation, that was all she
could think of. The verse which she
knew so well that she had been saying
it in her sleep she could not think of at
all.
Hut she was not the child to give way
to defeat without a struggle. If she
couldn't think of that verse, she could
of another, and so, while the congrega
tion was hushed to catch the first sylla
ble from her faltering lips, she piped up
in a shrill treble:
"Needles ftnd pins,
Nceillea ami ulns.
When you Ret married the trouble begins."
In one respect, at least, her recitation
was the success of the afternoon.
GOLD FROM THE SEA.
Scientists llelleve Thnt Countless Tool
May l'osslbly lie Obtained.
One of the most astonishing of all the
promises of electricity is now being dis
cussed hy the scientific journals. It is
that of extracting gold from the sea. It
has long been known to scientists that
every ton of seiv water contains half a
grain of gold and a, grain and a half of
silver, but the ISoston Globe says sci
ence has always found it impossible to
devise any practicable method of gain
ing possession of these precious bits of
metal. Hut now comes electricity with
its marvelous power of precipitation.
It is proposed to stretch a long series of
iron plates under the water and by
running electric currents through these
plates to precipitate the gold upon
them.
It is estimated that at the rate of half
a grain of gold and a grain and a half
of silver to each ton of sea water the
entire seas and weans of the world con
tain 21, MC) billion tons of gold and 04,
"85 billion tons of silver. Now if these
metals can be liberated by electricity
and precipitated w hat a revolution it
would make in the world's production.
What a revolution all this might make
in the world's currency basis docs not
concern science. Nevertheless, this new
application of electricity is decidedly
interesting as showing how discoveries
in science may operate at any time to
change the whole face of things in so
cial and economic affairs.

New illustrations of the eccentricity
and at the same time of the generosity
of the wealthy American, Livingstone,
who recently died at Florence, are af
forded by the publication of the con
tents of his will.
Livingstone alwavs
refused to give pourboires, remarking
instead to those who served him: "I'll
remember you in ray will." Most of
those to whom he said this thought it
merely a joke and regarded Livingstone
as a very stingy fellow in respect to
douceurs, though in other matters he
had a well deserved reputation for lib-
erality. It now transpires, however,
that he meant exactly what he said,
In his will he bequeathed 20,000 lire to
the omnibus conductors of Florence
through their society, the same amount
to the cabmen's society, 0,000 lire to the
waiters of the Cafe Bottegone; the same
to the waiters of the Cafe Doncy; 50,000

was always very attentive to the tes-

The wife of a young attorney in
Washington, a very charming woman,
loves her husband dearly, and the same
may be said of his feelings for her.
Mill, he cannot help being annoyed oc-
casionally at her freaks. They hadn't
been married a week before she began
to develop antm er iary tendencies. It
was "five days i::.d six hours" Ol
j "seven days and t. ".i minutes" since they
I were married. That went fairly well
during the wedding j mrney stage, says
the Post, but it was kept up wonder-
fully, till she would say: "It is a year,
one month, three days and four hours
since we were married." These attacks
of prcciseness occurred whenevei
George showed symptoms of going tc

emergencies arise aud ho is tempted to

nobody would ever dare to suggest
George going anywhere. Indeed, it has
come to such a pass that the boys ask
George to go somewhere, simply to hear
him say: "I can't. I must go home.
We've been married exactly three years,
five months, three weeks and four days
to-day. I've got to keep the anniver

off in a year, and thinks she does won

Charles Hartley, of Oswego, N. Y., a

Allen Hartley, a cousin, charged with

years ago, says an Ellenwood (f!. C.) cor-

The man arrested is an old resident
of this city, having lived here nearly
twelve years. He served two terms as
mayor and has been successful in the
accumulation of a comfortable fortune,
Four yoars ago he married a well known
lady of this place. Back of it is a story
tinged with romance and sullied by a
crime so remarkable in its details that
It furnishes a chapter in criminal his-
tory.
Allen Hartley is now an old man of
nearly seventy. When his locks were
raven and his beard was young he mar
ried a charming young lady, the belle
of the small interior town in New York,
where both resided. Charles Hartley,
the cousin, who, after such a lapse
of years, caused the arrest of Al-
len, was an unsuccessful suitor. Though
denied all hope by the marriage of his
cousin with the girl, he still loved, and
this flame, kept burning through the
years, caused the tracking down and ar-
rest of the wife murderer.
i Thirtv-nine vears aa-o next Mnv Hart
ley bode his friends a hasty farewell,
and at the same time informed them
that, with his wife, he was going west
to seek his fortune. No one saw the
couple leave the town, and finally mur-
murs of something wrong increased to
open gossip. Charges of foul play were
freely made, but there were none to
prove them, and at length they died
away.
When, later, the house in which the
Hartleys had lived was being repaired
and there was found in a cemented vault
beneath it the skeleton of Agnes Hart-
ey the town went mad. But the mur-
derer was gone and there was no trace,
Charles Hartley swore to hunt him
down if it took a lifetime and his for-
tune. It required forty years of one
md nearly as many thousand dollars of
the other, but success has at last re-
warded the long search.
