ONE TOUCH OF NATURE.
It mas in the early seventies, and I and
my two jj&rtntrs a ere running . cattle
ranch legated on the Medicine niver, in
s.o:h western Katists-
The recently finWie'l Pacific railroads
to the north of as had driven the harTalo
I-re-'ty well ont of the scuthem country,
and the millions of acre of rich gra-s
which h.ul (tnred coantlew thonaamls
of the animals fcr untold ajs, now lay
ojn to the herd of the cattlemen.
We were among the first ranchers
a ho entered the new field, but at the
time of which I rite nearly one hundred
cow cams had been established within
a radius of fif.y miles of onrs.
t ne of the ro4 recent arrival in the
neighborhood vis a Sew Encrlander
natntil Bailey, a quiet, rather delicate
lwkinj? fellow of aljout thirty-five, who,
a year Ix-fore tny story opens, had coue
on the ranire, boaht a crnijie hundrexl
head of cattSe, and located a ranch on
the North Fork, aljuut twenty ctilea west
of trar camp.
Bailey was a shy, reserved ort of man,
and altboch hospitable when visited,
erinced bnt little of that whole-sooled
fraternal sociability which jrenerally
characteri-t-s tha lordiy riders of the
ranje. This made him very unpopular
with the rvst, and, ith the excej-tion of
an old Mexican herisman, who served
him in the rapacity of ecjw boy, he had
very few friends, ami no int.uutes.
We are all entirely too ready to believe
the worst of any one ahora we dWike,
and cowboys are no exception to the
i So w hen, one autamn afternoon, big
Jem Smith, the bons herder of the circle
j bar ranch came thundering up to the .

calling me outside, told me that Bailey j
was running off a bunch of steers in j
which there was a M of strays belonging j
which tliere was a M of stravs belonging
j to other ranchers, and that the boys had
j gotten wind of it, and were organizing j
1 a pursuing nartv to catch and hang him !
l for cattle thieving. I did not' doubt the i
accused man's guiiL,
Ten minutes later I had belted on my i
revolver. .Idusl niv Boor and was cab'
oping like the wiml for'u.e appointed i
ndvon.. al! too re-a.ly to take hit part j
in tiie anticipated banging bee, '
We were a wild, rough looking set who
met that evening at the 2 X ranch and j
i started out on poor Bailey's trail. To tell i
! the truth, we Were most of ns as wild and I
rough as we looked. I
j There were fifteen of ns in the compa- j
i ny altogether, for the most part owners i
of ranches, and the rest cowboys. We !
were all well mounted, and each one j
jaraiedwith a knife and revolver, while j

the acknowledged master sporit of the 1
range, foil naturally into the lea-1 opn
this occasion, as he did ujon all others,
whose intrepid daring and unyielding
firmness were revpiiretl.
Tom was what the cowboys call a "ho
ly terror." He did not know what fear
was, but though relenties-ly fierce and
cruel w hen enraged, he had a heart that
was as tender as a child's in some of its
moods. He was a lion both in lo ks and
nature, and we all aimired him, and
generally submitted without question to
his leadership.
Our tarty rode over sixty miles that
night, and just as it began to grow light
next morning we came ua with Bailey,
lie and his old herder were engaged in
cooking breakfast over their camp fire
when we appeared upon the scene, and
we did net wait for them to finish their
meal before explaining onr basinets.
Fierce and haggard from onr hard
night's ride, we were an og!y-lookirg
crew, and it was little wonder that poor
Bailey looked scared as he rose ami tim
orously greeted as with a "Good morn
ing, gentlemen," a we rode np.
No one answered his salutation ; it was
received with griui, ominooa silence.
"Jnst lake care of him, boys, while I
ri.le out to the cattle and see that there
is no mistake alxxit the strays. We want
to be certain that he a guilty before go
ing any fnrther," said our leader; and as
he spoke he and several others of the
party started toward a bunch of cattle
that were grazing on the prairie not far
off, while the rest of ns kept guard over
Bailey, who had now grown as pale as
death, and was trembling in every limb.
In a moment Tom and the others re
turned, and as they approached, Tom
said : "It's true, boys. There's a dozen
strays in the lot and no mistake,' ami
turning without more ado to the cower
ing eolprit, he added, with a harsh ab
rnptnetis that was simply terrible : "Yoa,
Bailey, are a rattle thief, and we bare

coeu after yon to hang roa. Yoa kn?w
the Ut of the rsne, when yoa broke it,
so yoa must abide by it. Yon shall tave
an hoar, an.l an hour on?y to prejare t-jr
okath."
A his iliwm wa thm sfken, the poor
wrefc-h waa etHnpUftt-Iy overcome with
terror and diwjiar.
'h, boys, don't hang roe! Yoa mosn't ;
can? me. tie cr-.e.i .piieonay, laiitcg
suppliantiy on his kaecs. "I swear that
Petit was n. use. There was ROre -
k-ntinsr in the harsh stern faces of his
captons no stiftenine of their prim deter -
oiination ; and cot a ayibbfe of dtsebt
was uttered when oar Uwder spoke again
mm MiJ;
.'Mercy from ns yoa will not receive,
Yoa had beet prav for it from voor Ma-
ker. .In an hoars time vtu will I in
Ilia presence." i .
As Tom spoke the poor wretch pn
one desijairiru lottk at the unrelenting
faces of tho men uronjwd on thetr pomes
about him, and, meetinj with not a sisrn
of pity, fell, with a hopeless cman, face
downwant on the irra
"I reckon we had better leave him by
himrs'lf for. while boys. If he has any
prayin' to do, I allow be kin do it lter
witiKHitanaujiep.ee; let's draw oiT a
piere until his time's up."
This most opportune Dd delicate sng-
gestion canie ffm oidJake Ipe, and it
wasatted nprm with alacrity. We im-
mediately moved off f a distance of a
hundred yar-!s or so, and left the d-otn-
ed man alone to tuake his final pre pars-
t"wfts for death. Although we intende.1
to hang bint we all felt that it was no
more tlian Ctir to sIk.w him every polite- !
nes anl iurtesy ji.l-le un-ier tlie cir- i
eciiistances. j
Shortly after we rodet off. Bailey rose
dejectedly to bis feet, thrust his hand in- f
to his liosom, and drawing forth what
looked from a d:srance like a letter, drop
ped npon his knees and preswl it again
and again tohislij with impaiuned
fervor. Afterward he repU.-e-l it ia his
bo?m, and bowing his head spent the
remainder of his time seemitigly in silent
praver.
When the time had finally expired
and we drew near the kneeling culprit
to nih' onr dread work, he arose to
meet ns with an air so calm and gentle,
so utterly changed, tliat it astonished cs,
for we bad exp-cteI to meet him with
tears, supplications and struggles.
He offered not tiie sTgbtc! ri.stant

"quirt" raised in readiness to bring it
down aiws the flank of the doomed
man's pony si the word of rntnmand ; ail
was reaiiy for the final act, when Bailey
raise.! his head and spoke.
C'iliing Tiim Andersm to his side he

He no longer looktul ct the picture,
but Tom Anderson himself was gating at
it instead. Long and earnestly he looked
at it, bnt did not speak a word. Then he
banded it to old man Lape, and it passed
from hand to Land until every man in
tlie party had taken a long look at it
A sweet, gentle woman's face looked
emilingly forth from the midst of the
card, while over each of her shoulders
peeped achobby face filled with childish
glee and innocence. tn the bonier of
the carl waa written, in a clear delicate
hand, "Come home soon, papa, we're ao
lonely without yoa."
When the pk-tarehad gone the roends
and Tom Anderson returned it reverent
ly to Bailey's bfxotu, the calprit raised
his head and said :
"It was for their sake boys, I drove the
cattle off in such a hurry. I got word
yesterday that my wife was dying, and I
took the lirrt Hetri I could find la order
to get tlie money to go Jo her. I w as
w rong, I suppose, bat I would have paid
you for every head I took wbc-n I came
back."
Like a fiash Tom Anderson's knife was
oat of its sheath. A quick stroke, and
the rope about Ihe prisoner's neck was
severed. Instantly Bailey's pony bore
him aside, and in bis )4a-e, lacing the
crowd, on his mustang sat Torn, with np
lifted band anil his eyes fairly blaring
with fierce excitement, while we were
too math amazed to either s;vak or
