POSTPONING PROCEEDINGS.
"I came to tell you this morning
that you might as well stop them
proceedings in chancery for a bill
of divorce," said a soft-eyed thing
09 about twenty-seven years old, as
she came into a Laramie lawyer's
i office. ; :' ;
"Decided to live together as man
and wife again, hey V"
"No, not that-not that! You
see, Obadiah strolled away to
Leadville two years ago, and kind
of givene and the kids the gjand
e shake. Sinceot hen I've been rnst
oozcftjg fcjuo niy gentle, unobsirusive
o manner to make a stake. 1 I've-
wrote to him occasionally whenever
eIhad leisure, and kind of rounded
hinrp for not chipping m with
his assessment, butie never repre
sented. That kind of irritated me,
and I asked you last veek to get
mo a divwrce. If I paidall flie as
sessments myself I thoughtvrould
be no more than squre to get all
the dividends. But this nfbraing
I got news from Leadville that has
chanced mv notion little about
Hie divorce. ' , ,
"Went you some moneys did lie?"
".Mo, not mat. He didn t even
write to me; but I got a papeVwith
a big blue mark around a piece in
it, which conveys the intelligence
that Obadiah was hung there on
.the 10th by request! It seems that
1 he got to jumping lots and stealing
O horses between meals, and people
got down oDhim. Then he salted
n claim over 011 Buckskin, and sold
it for $40,000 to a tenderfoot from
away down East. He made several
ilowery breaks like that, and the
popular feeling seemed more or
less turned against him. Several
weeks ago ObadSah stole a pair of
mules from a man who belonged to
.Kokoma, and uejct night went back
to get a' neck-yoke and monkev-
wrench that belongitW4eivasenW'
undclmpjyned to run into a jmssle .
of vigilantes ltxikm for a job.
They took Obadial over to a tall,'
limfibr tree, and let him stand on
a, bronco ponjplugSunder the
lowest limb, while they tied a
clothesline around his windpipe.
Obajdjah told them that he was not
much of a bare-back rider, and he
didn't knowwhether he could do
the trick r not. They slid the
clothesline over the limb and lijjt
the bronco a lick witffii quirt. The
bronco was a high-life plug, andd
hail been raised in luxury,' So he
got mad when they hit hiin, and
lit out some. , That left Obadiah
in aggood deal of suspense. He
wiggled aroinul nlittle anil got (
barrassed, a1?d didn't seem to ki
tten;
know what to do with his minds for a
wle. Then he becaiufc more calm
aiul composed in his manner, and
the crowd-madaji present of him
to th.e coi'onerP 1 0 wrote to the
authorities to send me his $ieck
book. and.a.statement of Obadiah's
bank account, end whatever you're
out on this divorce hooraw will be
all right; understand, I'd rather
let the vigilantes fix up my law
business than to die of old'nge
waiting for chancery anyhow.
That's the kind of a grief-stricken
rolipram!"
A duko captured last NeAember
1 (fixiganSHl.s i the Neighborhood
of Trapani, Sicily, was- released
after i days' captivity on payment
of roransom oAtf$,(RK). His fam
ily never -e.vpocted to see him
again, as he was advanced in years,
very obese and afflicted with a ner-
us malady. llie treatment which
-1 LP r.oo.p.i.v-e.d f if uiwthe. brigands,
4kugh0by no means pleasant, has
effectually cured Mm. The J5uke
relates that on the night vJien he
Was taken he wasOput 11 librsvbajk
ndomade to ride until next morn-
when the brigands skipped at
i warehouse. Tft&re he remained
the first day, and wrote, at his cap
tors' dictation, a letter to his fam
ily asking them tojsend the above
named ransom. In the evening
the journey was resumed, and ..as
the ruin was tullhig in torroutu, iVie
was clad in some tarpaulin
aiul a sack was placed ier his head
to protect him. The second night
the party reached an abandoned
shed, where the Dukejvas left,
with a guard outside the door.
The third night the journey was
continued nud ended at the place
destined beforehand for theDuke'sJ
concealment He had.to enter thfe
retreat on hands and
knees,
hole into a euhtrrifnean grotto.
Here he remained for 30 'da
1 iri l 1 1 1 1
cjvunwii any ngiu, lying on a
bundle of straw, which was never
changed. His food consisted of
bread and cheese ami water. The
brigands left him ftkme? only re
turning to bring food. By the
light of n lamp, which was lowered
from alKve, they forced him to
write other pressing letters to his
family and dictated what he should
say. His family, to obtain his re
lease, used their utmost influence to
prevent the military authorities
from pursuiug the brigands until
the ransom had -been safely paid
Rixd received.
