"I once witnessed a duel with lasso

pened aliout 20 years ago, nnd It was
about as exciting a piece of work as I
ever saw. I was foreman at that time

In Wyoming, and we were on our way
from Sydney. Xeli., with a baud of
mares that had Iwn shipped from the
Missouri to Sydney. We had to drive
the animals overland to the home
ranch.
"Well, I picked up nn outfit of men
around Sydney, sewn Americans and
throe Mexicans, a tough lot. We start

"That Is tbe girl." be muttered
Is the picture of Xella."
Why is this man talking In this man
ner? We shall have to turn back and
read the past pages of the history of
the present Hon. Frederick Nelson.
Years ago at college, he had for. a
room-mate a young man about his own
age, named Leroy Seymons.
Leroy was a youth of steady habits
and good character. Tr.'.." soon beca"!,
..rf cause a
drifting apArt of the two. At an enter
tainment given by the students they
both first met Nella Stanton. Unlucky
day! Both met to love. One night in
the secrecy of their room they agreed
that each should do bis best to win, and
that neither should Interfere with the
other.
NH1a favored Leroy and when he
propu-d was accepted. When Freder
ick was told by Leroy that he had been
accepted the Wow was bard, and near
ly stunned him. Then, as he fully real
ized that Nella, whom he loved nigh
onto madness, loved Leroy, his grief
and rage knew no bounds.
He accused Leroy of treachery," say
ing he had not given him fair play. lie
ended by calling htm a traitor to tbe
holy bonds of friendship and saying
be never wished to see his face again.
Staaned by such treatment, Leroy ut
tered not a word, but, collecting his
things, left the room.
From that day to this Frederick Nel
son and Leroy Seymons had not looked
Into each other's faces. Shortly after
Frederick read of the marriage of Le
roy and Xella.
All this time Leroy and his young
wife were living happily together in a
distant city.
One year, two years, passed, and the
couple were blessed with a beautiful
little daughter, whom they named Erla.
She was tbe pride of their hearts; all
their thoughts and plans were for her
alone. One day a cruel blow fell upon
the head of Xella. Leroy had been
killed! O. the terrible anguish! But she
would be brave for her baby girl's sake.
After their money was gone Xella
hired some cheap rooms and supported
herself and Erin by her needle. And
Dow she depended on her daughter for
support, as her fragile health prevented
her from even this nieuns of support.
Meanwhile Frederick had married a re
fined girl named Lottie Ashley, whom
after the first grief and disappoint
ment pussed away, he loved. His one
desire now wss to see his old friend
and ask his forgiveness. Instead of
boarding the car he retraced his steps
and walked to where Erla waa stand
ng. "I will ;ake the whole basket," he
. ta'A In a business-like tone. Erla could
have fallen at his feet for gratitude.
She bad sold only two bunches all this
oiomiug and now to sell the whole bas
ket, and tnamma so much needed some
Uttlv luxury, and now she would have
It. Happy tears filled her lustrous eyes,
and she said In a tremulous voice: "O,
sir, you are so kind!"
Xot yet sure as to the correctness 1
the deal which had taken such posses
sion of him. he asked In a low voice. In
which the eagerness was hiddcn:"What
Is your name?" "My name Is Erla Sey
mons. sir." This was the chance hi
had coveted: It was his time. "Erla Sej
mona!" he ejaculated in a well-feigned'
surprise; "I used to know a man by
the name of Leroy Seymons."
"That was my dear father," replied
Erla in a choking voice.
"Where Is lie now?" he asked In ex
citemeut which he could not suppress.
"He is dead, sir." This was. Indeed,
hard when he thought himself ao near
his desire.
"And your mother?" he asked, with
hesitation.
"She ia feebie."

Then they coiled up their rojcs care
fully, nnd each man led his horse In
opposite directions until they were
about 1H yards apart. Then they
mounted like a flash and rode toward
each other.

"They rode slowly toward each oth

other like n coup!c of caged panthers.
Then they made a dash, and both ropes
fhot out like a streak of lightning.
Ith men dodged nnd escajM-d. In an

ropes" and begun to circle around and

"I could "lir?r the swish of their
ropes as they swui'.Ctheui around their
heads, each man try'.nj- to get sonic
advantage. They ehnrgtfd lack and
forth, and finally both threw their
ropes again. It was a cl-rvSillor
Dick, for the Mexican got his rope over
1 lick's head, but Hick threw It oft be
fore he could pull up the slack.
"In an Instant I'edro had gathered
up his rope and threw It again and
caught Pick around the head nnd one
nnn. He drove the spurs Into his horse
and started across the prairie, but like
a flash Pick's hand went to his pistol,
and lefore the Mexican could pull him
from his horse Hick sent a bullet
through his head, nnd the Mexican
fell to the ground dead.
"But Ilck was Jerked from his horse
with terrible force, for the Mexican
had made the end of his roiv. fat to
the saddle horn. The Mexican's horse
ran a short distance and then stopped.
and liefore I could gvt to him one of
the other Mexicans hail ridden up and
emptied his six shooter Into Pick's
body. He then put spurs to his horse
and soon disappeared across the prai
rie, and that was the hist I ever saw
of him.
The other Mexican told me that
was the third duel of that kind that
I'edro had fought and always got his
man." Seattle I'ost-Intelllgencer.

Journal lies on our table and con
tains a great deal of valuable in
fornintion relative to that far away
country, but that which immed

is that there are Jnniata people

ticularly of Dr. L.' B. Robison.
The doctor is a son of Shellburn
Robison, deceased, late of Milford
township. The Journal also re

known to all Mifflintown and Pat

"One of the most substantial
and highly respected citizens of
Grant county is Dr. L. B. Robi

the medical department of the Un

immediately chose Pinos Altos as
one of the most desirable and
healthful locations lor residence
and here he has lived ever since.
Iu that time he has gained the en

everywhere recognized as one of
the liest physicians in Grant coun

and liesides has established a large
practice in the neighboring dis

proprietor of one of the neatest

You've seen the distress a cumber

what was to ba shot at. And now
that tbe shooting season is near at

caution is a distressing illustration,

Transue walked to the property leas

Finding traces of a ground nog, be
lay down among a lot of high weeds
and resting his head on his hand,
awaited the arrival of the animal.
In the meantime a son of Hamp

that be saw something dark moving

crept after tbe'srpposed ground-hog.
Following tne usual custom in bunt

In a few moments Transue moved

An examination showed that the
