JlH OUTLAWS HEROINE,
Together They Perished on the Great
Western Desert-
Manalillo wa,s only a collection of
adolie huls, huddle under the eye of
the morning win, in the midst of the
burning Arizona divert.
Maylv it had liei-n there an hundred
years may lie twice that time for its
annals were writ only in tlie Kinds of
the wide, brown plain, and that which
is written there to-slav the wind covers
bMiiorrow.
But presently the railrad came, ami
with it signs of development. A much
man fathered up the nucleus of a ll.n-k
of sheep; mime miners outed and went
prospeclin-j in the. mountains ; a follow
who had some Mnatterin of science
went off" himself into the he-art of the
Apache country, and came hack with
opuls rich with strange fire.
These, and others like them, came to
look ujmiii Manaliiio its their base for
supplies ; the place grew in imixirt
aiue ; people from a farther district be
gan to come higher, and many riders,
in fantastic dress, were seen upon the
streets.
Some of these riders it would have
b -cn diilicult to classify. They were
crtaiuly neither ranchmen nor miners.
It might not have l-ceii t serious mat
ter to t!l them gamblers. Some of
them were more than susperted of
having hi lj-sl to "hoM up" the Fort
Skm Ion tage mi occ:isioii ; more than
onerHle a horse for which he had nev
er exchanged an equivalent.
In the terse vernacular of the south
west, they were simply "lad men."
It Wits bccau.ie this iortiiu had U-
c line too numerous that the leading
citims lecided society must lie re
organized and they went ah ut the t;ik
methodical! r.
Among these 'Lad men," the name
iXimiiigo Juarez KhI all the rest, and it
was decided by those having author
ity in the matter that Juarez mut "g,
preparatory ti the establish men t of an
orderly community.
When Armcda Torrcon nale into
Maiiaiill that afternoon to exchange
a goat's fleece for a measure of meal
she learned that matters of grave im
portance were afoot.
A good three leagues from Manalillo
was the ranch where Viocntio Torrcon,
her fithcr hired a few goats and b:tked
in the sun all day, asking little in life
except to be left alone.
The night was still as it was white,
except for the far yelping of a coyote or
at the toot of an owl.
ftera tini'i the sound of distant
h'Miflieats was added to these. A horst-
mati drew in siglit, stihotitted ag-iin-t
the clear sky, rtKle up to them at an
eay lope and halted in front of the
hut.
'Voti tire glad to see me," s.tid the
rider, sarcastically, as neither the man
nor the girl stirred ; "it is worth riding
far for such welcome."
"We are tired," answered Armcda,
inditlerently.
"Yes, Domingo, we do something be
sides play, we," grunted Torreon.
The horsemen Hung himself tlowu
b. sides the girl. "Tell me," he said.
"We have lost the new goats."
"The ones you had from the Kng-
lishman?"
Torrcon chuckled a silent assent, re
membering how they had gotten them.
"Ditl he come for them?" asked Do
mingo.
'Uah, no ! He has not that courage.
They have strayed away, upthear-
rovo."
'Tiiey will come hack."
'Yes, w hen the wolves have eaten
them."
They were silent for a little. Then
the man said, tentatively :
"You followed themV"
"Yes until I could go no farther."
D.imingo rose and sto;d looking
across the plain.
"The arroyo is a cursed place," he
lid.
Then he put his hand upon his
horse. "Juan is sure of foot. Yes I
could bring them back. Il'it I must
be in Manalillo to-uighL"
His manner was irresolute, and he
kept his face from the girl as he sj-okc.
Armcda turned Iter eyes upon h'm with
languid interest.
"Don't let your pxir goats interfere
with j our pleasures," she said, "doubt
less some one will miss you if you are
not there."
"The devil, no ! You know it is not
that, Armedo. 15 Jt there will be some
go-.Ml play to-night."
"Oh ! very welL I shall go for the
goats again, when I have rested."
"What? To the arroyo? To-night?
That is nonsense Slh? here I will go
if you will promise me "
"I will not promise. If you cannot
do this for me "
"I but jested," he said quickly. ,-I
shall go and find your goats."
He turned and rode away. And
Armcda stood and watched until he
was well out of sight and hearing.
Then she went into the bit ofchappa-
ral and returned driving liefore her a
dozen fine Angora goats, whose long
silken cnuU showed even in the moon
light, the purity of their breeding.
"If he rules till he finds them he will
not le in Manalillo this night," she
said, contentedly, to herself, as she
fastened the tlock securely in the in-closure.

ESTABLISHED 1827.
PA., WEDNESDAY,
when Armcda, lying awake with some
unformed fear upon her heart, heard
again the sound of approaching hoofs.
She aros-, drew a blanket hastily alx.ut
her and went ouUide the hut In an
instance Domingo was by her side and
leaned from his saddle and whisiH-rcd :
"Jet my pistolsuick ! The regulat
ors are behind, and I have but one."
Not pausing to question, site went in
side, put on some clothing swiftly,
came out and ran to the corral, where
shesaddied and mounted her father'
horse. Then she wheeled to the side
of Domingo, handed him a pistol and
placed two in her own licit. ' Domingo
laid his hand on her arm.
"Have you thought?" he ask-vL
"Yes," was the linn reply.
"If you go with me now you can not
return."
"I know."
"Yes, yes'" she said, impatiently;
'let us lie gone."
Just then the goats, aroused by the
unusual stir at so early an hour liegan
to move restlessly. This seemed to re
mind Domingo of something, lie
spoke hesitatingly.
"Armcda, 1 did not go after the
goats."
"I know. It does not matter. They
were not lost. You have been to
Muualiilo. I tried to keep you away."
"They were not lost ? Good ! We
are quits, then."
With this the outlaw lietit toward
his companion and drew her toward
him and kissed her on the lips. Then
they settled themselves well in their
saddles, laid the reins loosely tin the
neck of their horse and rode toward
the coming dawn.
l-'ora long time they rode silently,
neck and neck. When the read streaks
of the approaching day began to show
across the Imre, brown plain the girl
looked aiiout her and shuddered. Do
mingo saw and fpoke :
"It is the only chance. They dare
not follow here."
.; ."It's the Malpais; the Evil Pl.ttv,"
she said.
Then they rode forward steadily and
calmly into the place of horror.
"He is a long way oil"" said the
leader of the regulars, halting and
watching the moving specks ahead of
him; one cannot tell here how far.
Distance cheats the eye it lies to i:i'.."
Heshadeil his eyes with his hand.
and looked a long time toward tlieeas;
and again the west, from which they
had come.
"We will go," he said, after a little;
"I am ashumcd to give up, but it is
ju.-t as well he is safe I make no
doubt of that." -
He nodded meaning in the direction
of the riders. "Just as saf '," lie added,
"as though he had a Toa around his
neck.
"Hut the girl ?" asked one of the
band.
Tiie leader only shri:gt d his bould
ers in answer and set his face to the
west.
When the fugitives, locked back and
could see their pursuers no longer, they
rested a little. Domingo unsluug the
leathern watcr-b:ittie from his should
er, which had not Iwen t iuc!i.'.l tmfil
now, and gave Armcda a drink.
Then he made a motion as if swal
lowing some himself, and mured a
little of the water into the p:ilm of his
hand and moistened the mouths of the
horss-s with it.
The midday sun rose high overhead,
:iud as they rode on through the long
aftertiooti, on through the schorehing
des -rt, on through tlte terrible Malpais,
it lieat down upon them mercilessly.
The wind that came acro.-s the dnnt-
ry wast was blown straight its from a
fury furnace. The air shimmered with j
llJsit, and the bright metallic glitter j
upon the polished lava burned iiion I
their eyeballs and made them reel, sick I
with a dizzy faintness.
Once Armeda swerved from her sad
dle and would have fallen, but was
stayed by her companion's hand. He
g ive her more water to drink.
And when the m.ion wins up again
th -y yet rode riding for lite. They
role now from something more terri
ble than the regulars, l'.ut they r ide
slowly, uncertainly, a:il the mile
stretched longer and longer ; the water
was all gone now, a:il their m luths
became dry and parched and cracked
so that they could not talk.
Hut the outlaw touch the girl gently
niiw and then, and she answered 5iim
wit'.i a liok of supreme content. She
was willing to accept that which the
saints should will.
Filially her horse stumbled and fell,
and could not rise again. Domingo
cau 'lit her in his arms.
"Ieave me, and ride," she whisper
ed.
I.'u. he only raised htr to his own,
saddle, and thug ioJ Juan hire them
lioth forward.
At last he, too, fell. Then Domingo
laid t'le girl tut the ground, and, kneel
ing liesides his horse, called him by
every endearing nam", conjured him
by all the dear saints to rise and carry
them out of the black horror out from
that cursed place that had kvn named
fur the father of all evil the Evil
place.
Ihit the Malpais clutched their lives
the more.
He rose and lifted the girl in his
arms and made forward as liest he
could. Weakly, blindly, staggering
and sometimes falling, but always for
ward, with a strength bjru of despair.
"Leave me," the girl whispered
again, "and save yourself."
Hut Domingo knew the awful jour
ney was al mast done. Hefore him, in
the white moonlight, a mountain teak
loomed dimly. How far it was he
could not tell, but somewhere between
him and it was water.
If he could only keep on a little long
er they would be saved.
Hut even in the moonlight there doc
distance cheat the eye doe it still lie
to one. Whenever he raised hi head
and looked across the plain to the
m iuntam it seetnri so far !!' so unat
tainable, that hi heart sank.
Still he struggle tin through the long
night. Hut just before, day break he

Entaile Jewels-
From the Boston
England is the only country in the
world where the inutility are in the
habit of entailing their jewels. Some
of the great houses of the aristocracy,
such as that of Cavendish, whose head
is the Duke of Deveiishire ; tbvt of
Ileiilinck, whose head is fiic Duke of
Portland, and that of Lenox, whose

They cannot lie sold or delivered
from the head of the house, and even
if they are pledged for loam the person
with whom they are pledged is forced
bylaw to return them to the c-t ttc,
even without payment of his loan, on

tillered them as security for money ad

landed property, the heirlo i;n jewels
do not remain with the widow, but
pass immediately to the succ- r to the

When young Lord Dudley married
erstwhile shopgirl, Curney,
a few years ago, his still beaut it'id an. 1
youug-l'Nikiiig mother, the widowed
countess, had to surrender to her
daughter-in-law most of the magnifi
cent and world-fam.-d jewels with
which she had delighted to adorn her j
comely person during the twenty-live
years f her married lif -. Ofe iurs -
jewelry thus entailed cannot be seized
for debt, and thus it is that these col

and fvcr-increasiiig throughout the
course of years.

family jewels. Formerly divorce w.-ts

the question did not ari.-e. Hut now
that ditiorei-s are so customary aioo-g

arising in connection it:i the family

every eilort to retain them.
It was only the other day than an
action of this kind took place; in Lon

pronounced in In r favor and who had
been assigned the guardianship of the
children, insisting that, inasmuch as
she retain her name, her title and her
children, she likewise the right tore
tain possession of the family jewel
until her son should marry. This, how

declar.sl that the jewels mu-a lie re

property of her husband's f.ioily.

One of tiie simplest devices for smug
gling diamonds is that of the hollow
heeled In aits and shoes constructed so
as to leave a small vacant space in the
heels are easily obtained in Eunqie,
and they are especially manufactured
for the pUi'jKise tif supplying smug
gler with a means for escaping detec
tion. The porous plaster ha ot'ten served
as a menus of secreting diamonds.
When it is iindersbxtd that bi,'Ki
worth of diamond or more i-.ui easily
lie enclosed in a pujicr parcel about as
wide as this column, one and one-
half inches high, and a'.ioui a quarter
of an inch thick, it is easy to compre
hend that such a package can lie kept
securely in place by menus of an hr.i.i
cent but highly serviivable xirous
plaster.
One of the most ingenious methods
ever employed was the use of a cake of
soap, wherein a number tif diamonds
had been imltedded. It is highly
probable that this plau would have
proved successful had it not U-en that
the officers of tlte government had re
ceived information that tiie susjiecte.l
H-rs in had diamonds with him, and
searched his e'dects so thoroughly that
they examined even the gem-stu led
block of soap.
The wife of this smuggler hclvd her
sjkousc, and her plan was not less
ingenious than that of her busUmd.
Her hat was ornamented with bunches
tif grapes, which under ordinary
circumstances would only have awak
ened the envv of other wearers of bon
nets. Within the grajK-s were diamonds
and fancy stones of great value.
Another smuggler was fpeciul!y
provided by Frovidetnv with a smug
gling device in the shnjte of a heavy
covering of thick, bushy hair, which
he arranged so that itsbsod up from his
forehead like an impenetrable- bush.
Within this mas of heavy Lair he
deposited a god!y stock tif diamonds,
and succeeded for a time in escaping
the vigilance of the custom house
ofih-ini.
A these schemes have la-come known
to the custom house authorities the
ingenuity of the smu;i.lcrs has liectl
more severely taxed. A recent dis
covery disclosed the following c'.alHtrate
plan which succeeded a great many
time before it was discovered :
Two smugglers ovcratcd in partner
ship. The first crossed the ocean, and
liefore leaving the wharf reserved r re
turn Urth for a certain date. The date
and the numln-rof the lnrth were at
once cabled to his liccoinplice in Amer
ica. Having purchased the diamonds,
in due time he returned to this coun
try in accordance with the instructions
previously cabled. No amount tif ex
amination resulted in finding any
diamonds ujion his htmui. Mean
while.however, his partner had se
cured the same berth.
When the day for sailing came, part
ner No. 2, accompanied by hi family,
entered the cabin, and extracted from
a secure hiding place several parcel of
diamonds left there by hi accomplice.
These he handed to hi tearful family,
who, after bidding him good bye, lef
the steamer unusp ote.l, an I brought
the diamond into the mark-t. It
took a long, time to discover this

Legend? cf theFas3icn.
The story runs that Adam took with
him fr.ii Eden as a statt'a branch of the
tree of knowledge in fact, the very
branch tha bore the fatal apple. During
ills wandering he reached Jerusalem.
He thrust the staff in tlie ground, and
ii grew u:i ! becam; a tree from which
the cr-iss was fashioned. Thus the
same wo od bore that which brought
sin into the world and him who over
came it and redeemed the world from
its sway.
Som say the wd of t lie cross was
fnnu the aspen tree and since then its
leaves forever tremble with remorse
and fear. The mistletoe, according to
another legend, was once a sturdy
tree, but having furnished the mater
ial for the cross it w:is accursed and
Ix-camc a weak para-ite.
To many a shrub and plant has U-en
attributed the dread distinction of fur
nishing the crown of thorns. In Italy
it V- the bar! ry, in ttermany the holly,
and elsewhere it is given to the bram
ble, the buckthorn, tlie hawthorn, the
brier rose, the aci:i:h;n, the will hys
sop and the acacia. The scourge that
was laid upon oar Savior's back, tra
dition se.ys, was made from the weep
ing willow; for which reason that tree
ha-, ever since maintained a dr.oping
and remorseful altitude. And the
reed which was pluvd iu his hand,
acinrdiug to the same authority, was a
stalk of the common cattail with it
mace-like la-ad.
The p.ission flower, when found by
Spaniards in Mexico, was hailed with
adoration, since it displayed within it
self all the instrument of the passion
the crown, the scourge, the stc:ir
and the nail-s. There are other tl iwers
which fable says were growing at the
foot of the cms and were stained with
the Lord's bl aid.
T-te k-rmans tell us that the cross
bill strove hard to draw out the nail
tli it pierced tlie sutr rer' harids. It
c o lid not, but it twisted its Iteak in the
etrirt and dyed it .'.'.image in bla-d.
The English robin is the hero of a sim
ilar tra I. tio i :.i 1 dyed it breat in the
bloody thorns.
A De.ni! legend ha it th at puring
the Savior's agony t'.ir -e birds came
flying thither and alighted up.ni the
cross. "S;yrk ham ! Styik ham!"
cried one. "Strengthen him ! Strength
en him r An I ever since men have
called the stork a bird of strength and
blessing. Tiiescc.m.l cried : "Sval ham !
Seal ham !' or "ii -fresh him ! Uefresli
him !" And the swallow, too is a bird
of bl.-ssing. Hut tlie third cried :
"liien ham ! Tnen ham .'" or "Punish
him ! Torture him !" And thus the lap
wing i a bird accursed foreverm ire.
The sain legend prevail among the
Swedes only they add a fourth bird
the turtledove which cried : "Kyrie !
Kyrie!" or "Lord ! Lord!" which U
vet it mournful cry.
