MAT'S HUSBAND.
No Ono But Horsolf Know Why
Sho Lovod Him.
She doubtless hod a woman's reason
for marrying him. That kind of rea
son may not satisfy other people, but
it is invariably sufficient for tho femi
nine rcasoncr.
Sam Toms was what is called "wuth
loss" by bin Texan neighbors. Old Bill
Dunn, his father-in-law, himself not a
very energetic or useful citizen, used
to sit on tho steps at the crocs-road
store and publicly bewail his sad lot in
having Bum for a member of his fami
ly. Kill had a dramatic style of de
livery that was very fetching, and in
variably Impressed strangers as being
very much in earnest
lie would sit on tho steps, silently
chewing an enormous mouthful of to
bacco and apparently listening to the
conversation of his co-loafers. If Sam's
name was mentioned, he would give
vent to four or five little falsetto
fcqucaks, which found egress through .
his nose; then ho vould draw in a long
breath, puff out his fat cheeks, purse
his mouth, nnd give a heavy whistling
sigh; this would be followed by a large
quantity of tobacco juice, carefully
aimed at some object in tho vicinity.
These preliminaries accomplished, Bill
would rise UJ his feet, thrust ono fat, (
dirty hand into his shirt front, wave
the other in a sweeping gesture as he ,
lowered his eyes and. rolled his head 1
sadly frdm side to side, and deliver .
himself profoundly, after tho following '
fashion:
"Ah huml That Sam Toms is th'
laziest, mos' shif'lcss, o'nery, triflin'
euss 1 ever seed an' yere I've done
got 'lin f'r a son-'n-lawr. Hm-hm-hrat"
Another whistling sigh would close this
peroration, and old Bill would resume
his seat, still shaking his head sorrow
fully. And Bill was more than half right.
Nominally, Sam was a cowboyj but
most of the time ho would tell you he
was "jes' layln' off a spell, t' rest up
like."
lie had always been just so distin
guished for laziness in an easy-going
community, and nobody expected )ifm
ever to be otherwise; and it puzzled
people Immensely when onergetic,
capable Mnttie Bunn accepted him for
"reg'lur comp'ny," to Bay nothing of
the sensation created by their wedding.
Mat, as has been suggested, probably
had sorae reason for marrying Sam;
but it is quite certain that she never
told anyone what that reason won.
Sam was tall, and big, and handsome
in his careless, slouchy way; he hod
always managed, no one knew how,
to wear good clothes, too. These facta
and his perennial good nature and
friendly ways were the only points in
his favor. Against him were the polntp
so forcibly taken by his father-in-law,
and, also, that he got drunk whenever
he could possibly do so, and was
morally so weak that anyone could
easily lead him astray.
How Mat and Sam got along no ono
but Mat knew. Once in a great while,
Sam would do some work and earn a
few dollars. If he got homo with it
without stopping at the saloon, well
and good. But, oftcner than not, ho
would "drap in jes' t' take a nip 'r
two," and that would settle it. At
such times he would stay and buy
drinks for everybody present while his
money lasted. Then ho would como
home in a maudlin, tearful state of in-H
toxication, and invent some tale to ac
count for his condition and the disap
pearance of his money, winding up
with tho promise never to let it happen
again. And Mat would pretend that
she believed him, and would stroke his
curly head until he fell asleep. Then
she would look at tho handsome scamp
for a few minutes with lovo unutter-
able in her eyes the tired "eyes back 1
of which were a world of unshed tears. '
But she never complained not the I
first word; the firm-sot mouth and
weary look might indicate over so I
much, but her lips never expressed lu I
And Sam gradually grow more and .
more useless and shiftless, trusting to
his wife's ready wit and fertility of re
source to carry them, both over the bad
places.
Thoro wero lots of bad places, too.
Twice Sam ran into debt several dol
lars at the saloon, and Mat found some
means to pay the debts only herself
know how. But tho second timo she
informed the saloon man that he must
trust Sam no more. And, besides these
things, to live how did thoy do It?
Nobody could guess. Perhaps even
Mat herself could not havo told; yet
livo they did or, rather, existed and,
for the most part, kept out of debt.
Sam sometimes worked, but never
for very long. lie always found some
excuse for leaving a placo within a few
days. He could almost always find an
other job easily enough, for he was an
excellent hand" when ho chose to be
but ho did not hasten about finding a
new job when he hud given one, up; not
until they were reduced to the very
last straits could Mat get him to hunt
ing work again.
One day Sam left homo for a ranch
about thirty-five miles distant, whore
ho had heard they wanted help. Two
days nassod threo four five and no
word caino from him. Mat was not a
little worriod, although Sam had often
been away for two weeks nt a time
without sending word to her. Hut this
time it was different; there was no ex
cuse for his not sending u me- apv, as
the stage oame by the rum-li he luul
gone to three times a week. If he had j
found work there, as he expected, ha (
could easily have notified hr. Ho, hue
in t.ie afternoon of the fifth diy, sho
threw her shawl over her hruil and
vtriit do n to her father'-., to find if
thi' h.ul heard anything of h.un. j
Tl'j old fe. low was btanding in the '
doorwu.t, t.ilLiu.j to n cuuiilo cf .
strangers, .
"No," he was saying, "they hain't'
bo'n no person 'long yere, Inn' few days,
but what b'longayure. Mr-bbc, though,
he mout a be'n toed over yere f 15. i- I
con's. Ben thar? No? Waal, cov '
boy's eomtn'tn f'm thar purty booh, an'
he o'n toll ye. Como In an1 feed; Jaek'll
bo yero right Boon." 1
Mat stayed to help her mother with
the supper, and during tho course of
the meal learned that tho two strangers
were officers trailing a horse t,taiof, who
had stolen a valuable horse at a ranch
forty miles cast and sold it at Piekott
Station, and who was believed to have
como this wny.
As she listened to the conversation a
sudden nameless fear came upon her,
making her feel faint and ill. As soon
ns supper was over sho took her shawl
and hurried home.
Somehow she was not surprised to
find the door open. Sho entered hasti
ly. Sam was in bed asleep nnd breath
ing stertorous ly. He had evidently
been drinking, as his clothes were scat
tered about the floor, and Mat, looking
out the bock door, could see his pony
standipg patiently where Sam had lefl
him, waiting for some one to come and
feed him. Mat leaned over tho sleep
ing mnn and kissed him gently, her
eyes full of love. Then she turned to
pick up his clothes and put them away.
The trousers wero heavy, and some
thing jingled in one of tho pockets.
Instinctively Mat thrust her hand into
it and drew it forth clasping several
gold pieces. As she did so her eyes
opened wide and she stood as if stunned
for a time, her heart chilled with the
same strange fear that had stricken her
awhile ago and impelled her to hurry
home.
Sho rushed to the bed and shook Sam
roughly. "Sam" Sam! wako up!" she
almost screamed.
The man turned over and looked at
her stupidly, "li'lo, M-Mat! Yero, be
ye? Giinmo kiss," he said, in a dull
tone.
"Not twell yo tell mo whar yo done
got these yero things!" Mat's voice
sounded broken and shrill.
Sam sat up and rubbed his head, look
ing at lierin drunken wonder. "W-w'y,
them them thar, honey?"
She shook him fiercely, and said, in a
lower tone a tone of earnest force:
"Tell me, Sam Toms, whar yo done
got these yere coinsl Quick, now!"
Her tone partially sobered tho man
whose eyes opened wider as ho asked,
querulously:
"What ye so all-fired fussy 'bout? 1
hain't done nothin'." And he laughed
in a half-drunken, half-nervous way.
"Sam! whar did ye git 'em?"
He sat dumbly staring nt her.
"Sam!" hur voice was full of horror,
"did you steal that thar hoss?"
No answer; but Mat saw by his eyes
she had guessed tho truth. Slowly the
coins fell from her hand to the floor;
slowly her head bent forward until hex
face touched the pillow. For minutes
she did not move not until Sam, wha
had been staring at her wonderlngly,
reached out his big hand and laid it
caressingly on hor head. Then she
sprang to her feet, her hot eyes glaring,
and her form trembling with anger and
horror. Sho did not speak, but fixed
her gaze on his face for a few seconds.
He did not meet her look, and present
ly she turned and ran out of the door.
Sam, almost sober now, called after
her, but sho did not answer. He got
out of bed slowly and started to dress
himself. Ho had almost finished, when
Matt, accompanied by her father and
the two strangers, returned.
"Thar he is an' thar's th' money,"
sho said, and passed on out through
tho back door, withoutlooklng at Sam.
There was a jail at the cross-roads;
It was a primitive affair, but solid nnd
substantial. It was a dugout in tho
side-hill, and had a heavy oak door and
great steel hinges and lock. It was
plenty strong enough to hold a dozen
men, all anxious to escape and Sam
Toms did not try to escape. Ho only
Bat still in the low, damp, darksome
room and tried to understand how it
had all happened. It must be a drunk
en dream but, no, ho was almost
sober, and know whoro he was and
how and why he was there. But he
could not understand. Had Mat was
it really Mat, Who had given him up?
There must bo some mistake.
The big, strong man finally began to
realize it oil. He lay down on tho
bunk and cried himself to sleep, like a
child.
It must have been about one o'clock
in tho morning when some one silently
entered the houso of old Bill Bunn,
constable. This somo one entered by
the back door, want stealthily into the
room where Bill and his wife slept,
rummaged about a few minutes, and
then emerged from the house. It was
a woman, and she had something in
her hand.
Sam Toms was awakened, a little
after this, by a rattling, Jarring sound.
He sprang up, just as the big oaken
doors swung back and revealed tho
figures of a woman and two saddla
horses. "I come f'r ye. Sam," said tho wom
an, with a sob. "I done brung both
ponies an' ou' clo'es. Le's go, Sam; wo
c'n git 'crost th' rivah bofo' mawnin'.
Cornel"
IIo clasped her in his arms, and they
clung to onch other a "littlo while.
Then Mat said, raoro steadily:
"Come, Sam. Le's go ovah t' Mexico
an' mebbo we c'n try 'u' do better
ovah thar."
And they rode forth in tho bright,
free moonlight, down towards tho Hlo
Oraode into a new and hotter life.
