    Billy Leßoy the Bandit.
A STORY or WILD LIVE IN COLORADO.
A few weeks ago the people of :many.
-communities in Ocfiorado were' made
angry by 'the escape of the notorious
highwayman, Billy Le Roy, from Dep
uty Maftbal Cantril, on the Kansas
Pacific express. The story -. of the et
cape, as printed at the time, was that
.Le Itoy's sweetheart had planned her
lover's release and that she had suc
cessfully bewitched the Deputy Mar ,
shal. The true story, as related
by tlm bandit_to Dr. Flournoy, of Del
;ices, is as follows : Le Boy carried
shoat his person a tiny key, made from
a watch spring. When he was stripped
• and searched on the morning of his
departure for Detroit he creased thb
sktu of his neck - . and placed the key in
the crease. His month was opened,
his hair brushed and his ears examined,
but the key escaped the notice of the
searchers. When the train was run
ning at terrific speed gantril left his
prisoner, shackled hand and foot, and
stepped to the toilet room. two
seconds," said the bandit to Dr. Flour
noy, "I bad my hands free and in an
other two seconds my feet also. All
the passengers in the car, except one
lady, were either nodding or half asleep.
I knew how to settle the lady. unit
gave her one—of a look, ran to the plat
form and jumped off. I was stunned,
but came to in a little while and got
away."
WHY JIMMY RESIGNED.
Several days passed after Le Roy's
escape and the people hoped that he
had gone to some other corner pf the
world. On the night of the 13th in
stant the down stage 'for Del Norte
passed the lower comer of Franklin's
ranch, when from one side of the dark
highway there arose a demand to halt.
The quick movement of the robbers
frightened the coach horses.. Old Jim
icy—so he is called—was driving and
he had terrible work to : control the
horses, though .he did his best. The
robbers, ,mistaking the' runaway for a
deliberate attempt , on.' the part of
.•-• •
the driver to evade their clutches, fired
'u volley into the fast fleeing coach.
One of these shots._ passed through a
- man's hat who sat =Du the box with
Jimmy and took off one of his locks
of hair. -
"Let's go back and surrender," said
Jimmy ; "if we don't they'll kill me
next time." •
"For God's sake , don't' go back,"
pleallei a passenger," for I have $7OO
right on me 'now and I will lose the
whole of it. .
So Jimmy put the lash to his' homes
and the coach got away as quickly as
possible. Then Jimmy resigned. He
did not propose to be killed in any
such style. He knew that the bandits
we?e none other than silly Le Boy
and his party.
"THE LITTLE FELLOW."
Lo Roy was next heard from last
Wednesday night, when the stage was
ascending the hill about three miles
from Antelope Springs and about a
mile and -a half from -the lake. , The .
hill is very steep; and it wasffhile the'
ascent wasi)eing made that the agents
jumped horn their concealiient and
tired a Whole handful of bullets into
the passing vehicle. One of the bullets
took effect in the leg of Engineer Bart
lett, of the Denver and Rio Grande
Road, striking him in the fleshy part.
The ball struck a silver dollar is Bart
lett's pocket and 'sent the: dollar into
the flesh, then glanced and went
' through the leg and out. The silver
, piece protected the femoral artery and
saved Bartlett's life. Bartlett says
there were three then in this party and
Wet one of them—a little fellow—said
to the big man of the -crowd:"— you,
get on the other -side, there, and 'tend
to business." The little fellow pulled
hie self-acting British brill-dog and
climbed up on the - wheel: He pointed
the muzzle ,at Bartlett's heal cud re
marked:
tTam going through you; hold up
yoiir hands.".-I: .
The operation {,required but a short
time. Money and watch soon passed
into the deft fingers of the road agent.
.1t became necessary to get into the
Pocket nearest the wound.
_ffYou are hurting m 3 leg very much,"
- •
-mildly'proested the victim.
"Well, -- you, yoU can stand it,"
was the reply. The front boot was
then cleared of mail, and the rear on:
being enpty the driver was told to go
'and that " quick." The inside pas
sengers wore not disturbed. The rob
' bers.were evidently nervd 4 us, for it was

CAUGHT.
_ .•
• j. A fife'-and drum corps paraded Del
Node - - when the stage reached .that
place and there was considerable tex
citement in Denver and - all along the
route. The citizens of Del Norte atria
ed themselves for a grand hunt for the
highwaymen. Deputy' Marshall Arm
strong headed the party. The guide
-wasJ:.P. Galloway, an old and expe
riences mountain horse-thief tracker.
The man-hunters, rode up the Savoya
into the mountain. fastnesses. At dusk
on the 22d, while Armstrong was sit
ting on a boulder, with McFrost and
Galloway near, he saw a man emerging
from the thin tiniber, - "Halt!" said
Armstrong. The Arran raised his gun
and was about to fire, when be saw that
he - was Covered from three points. He
surrendered and admitted that he was
"Lours Potter," of Le Roy's gang.
The threelunters went rewards Alamo
sar2- On the road they said a. little fel
loW witLa pack on his back. At the
et!mmand, "halt," the little Flan drew
revolver, fired and ran. Armstrong
sent a load atter him. The ball struck
thi fellow, and with a quick bound he
entered the brush near at hand and
rolled dowia the river bank out of sight.
It was a job getting him out of the
. dopse. He would not say a word_and
all the coaxing iu the world seemed to
have no effect. Finally they got to
talking about shooting into the copse
after him and this brought the young
man to time. He said he was shot and
- Couldn't walk.. But they got him out
at last and found that the whole of his
calf had been' scooped out by the bul.
let. It was an ugly wound.
"Who are you, anyhow ?" he was
asded.
am Billy Le Boy," be replied
"Billy,' the Bandit ?"
•'The same."
HANGED
, Del Norte was crazy over the capture
"The people were . wild," said General
It A. Cameron, who happened to be io
:the place; "the streets were like so
many hives of mad bees." The Sheriff
locked the tiro prisoners in the rear
cells of the strong jail and a committee
of influential citizens:were appointed
to act as guard for the night: Abort
ten o'clock the Sheriff stepped-across
the way on business. HO inks
locked in a room and kept under guard.-
4 EveritlAng was quiet. Apparently
everybody had gone to bed. At eleven
o'cloik a party rode up to the jail•door
and knocked. The guard asked what
was wanted. "This is your relief ; walk
out." The guard walked out and were
- seized and bound one by one.. The
party then went directly to the cells
where Le Hoy and Potter were, took
them out, gagged them and left the jail
with the prisoners. Not a word was
spoken.
At 12 o'clock, midnight, a man rap
ped at Coroner Holland's, house. Hol
land put his head out at he window.
"Hello 1" said he.
"There - 81,0 men hanging on a tree
near the river.' : ..
"What ?"
. "That's what I said; and, by _ the
way, it's very curious, but I found' the
keys of the jail just up the street. Here
they are."
The stranger towed the keyS in at
the window and walked - away. The
Coroner went to the riverand cut doin
the dead bodies, which were those of
Le Boy - and Potter. The next day the
Coroner's jury found :it verdict exoner
ating all concerned iii the affair.
As the dead bodies were stretched
vice by side many persons remarited
upon their close resemblance. Upon
Le Boy's tight arm were tattooed the
letters "A. P." and upon Potter's right
arm the letters "S. P." Le Boy's . real
name was' Arthur Pond and Potter's
real name was Samuel Pond, and the
dead men were brothers.—Condensed
from the Deriver, papers.
The OH Mates Closet.
Several days ago, a celebrated spirit
ualist came to Little Rock, and stated
that before giving a public , entertain
ment he would give a seance, Where any
member of a small invited circle could
call ip the spirits of their friends and
converse with them. 'By mistake a man
from down the river was admitted, a
man whose reputation for deeds of
violence would not place his`spirit above
par in the soul market.. . After listening
awhile to tapping, ' horn-blowing and
gauze vail Materialization, the bad man
arose and said:
"Say, Cap'n, whar's the old man's
ghost ?"
"What old man ?" asked the medium,
."My old man, the: governor. Call
him up."
IRE
"What's hitinamd?"
“Tom Belick; call him tip !”
"I don't think we are in comm inica
Con with him tn.night."
"What's the matter, wire down ?"
"No, the old gentleman's off on .8
visit."
"Now, Hero, jest shut your wardrobe
and turn out your light. If you don't
give the old man's ghost a show, the
thing shan't run.
"Wait; I'll see if h'll come," said the
s
spiritualist. "It he rap - three tithes he
is Willtn; if only once he has other en
gagements,".
A char rap sounded.
"His unwilling," continued the
spiritualist: -
"Now, here," said the bad man, "that
want my old man's ktiock. Why, of
he'.4l hit that table he'd splintered - it.
Call him nP," and drawing a revolver
the airectiopate son cast a severe look on
the medium. .
"To tell the truth, I can't call -him
up." -
"Tell him that I want to see him
That'll fech him.
"No; he won't come; bat I beg of
you be patient. Wait; .ah, he will
come presently. He is here and de-
sires to talk with yon. He Bays that
he is 'perfecily `happy, and that .he
longs for the time when yon will be wit
him. He is one of the rulers in the
.
spirit land."
"Cap'n, you are the Mermaid liar in
Arkansas."
"Why so, Fir ?"
"Because the man is in the the city
prison, drrink. as a fool."--Little 'lock

Absurd fiber:, We do not believe the
story that Roscoe Cohkling wrote to
his tailor: "I want a new suit of
clothes. Haven't time to be measured.
Go to art gallery and measure statue of
Apollo Belvidere and make u snit by
that measurement.", We don? believe
it, tor we don't believe - that Roscoe
would admit that the statue would come
anywhere- near his forM in iierfeetion.
”.f believe the jury have been inocu

suffered the most excruciating pain. I wore a
bands — go on it for a year, and tried most every
thing in, my reach, but could find nothing that
would give me permanent relief. When I over
worked, it would pain me very much. In April
1878 rbegan to think- I should be a cripple for
life; but having some of .rKcndall's Spavin Cure"
thought I would try it. I used' one third of a
