Fearless "Billy the Kid,"
Reveled In Carnage.
Who
ONLY A BOY, YET A TERROR.
This Youthful Desperado of the South
western Territories Waa but Twenty-one
When He Met Death at the
Handa of Sheriff Pat Garrett.
When General Lew Wallace was
governor of New Mexico and the war
that raged for several years between
the rival cattle companies was at Us
height "Billy the Kid" had reached
the flood of his murderous career. lie
arrived in Lincoln county to take sides
In the cattle warfare, known and
feared in every range town and min
ing camp In the southwestern terri
tories. Ture wanton love of carnage was nil
that attracted hlra to Lincoln county.
With the bond of desperadoes he led
he raided ranches, "shot up" towns,
killed, burned houses and committed
outrage after outrage with the blind
recklessness of a maniac. Fear was
extinct within hint. He cared no more
for detachments of cavalry than he
did for cowering sheriffs.
Affairs in New Mexico finally came
to such a pass that half the cattlemen
paid the youthful desperado tribute.
It was only after Tat F. Garrett was
made sheriff of Lincoln county and the
author of "Ben-IIur" (General Wal
lace) urged that fearless gun fighter
and gambler to capture Billy the Kid
that a determined effort was made to
end his reign of terror.
The obstacles that Garrett had to en
counter called for all his headlong en
ergy and nerve. Billy had the entire
countryside In a state of abject terror;
friends were ready to give him timely
warning of pursuit; ranchmen dared
not deny hlra lodgment or conceal
ment. Tat Garrett undertook the capture In
October, 1880, and on Dec. 20 he sur
rounded the Kid and his band In a
deserted house near Stinking Springs.
After a siege lasting most of the day
the outlaws' ammunition was exhaust
ed. Billy the Kid surrendered. He
and his four followers, surrounded by
a great force of armed men, were taken
to Las Vegas and thence to Santa Fe
for safe keeping.
An array of indictments charging
murder confronted him. He was tried
on one indictment and acquitted, then ,
tried on another and convicted. . lie
carried himself throughout with sneer
ing defiance. After he had been sen
tenced to hang Garrett took him to
Fort Stanton, near Lincoln. Two depu
ties armed with Winchesters were as
signed to guard him in the temporary
Jail in the Murphy & Dolan store build
lng.
In some mysterious fashion the
Kid possessed himself of a revolver,
shot down his guards, seized their
weapons and nppeared at thp window.
When another guard appeared the
prisoner riddled his body with buck
shot Then he called to an old man on
the plaza to bring him a file. Filing
off one of his shackles, he called for a
horse. One was brought, and he es
caped. For nearly three months after that
Billy the Kid led a fugitive life.
Garrett dogged him patiently and final
ly got wind of his hiding place the
ranch of Peter Maxwell, near Fort
Sumner. It was nearly midnight when
Garrett and two deputies quietly ap
proached the Maxwell hacienda. Gar
rett crept into the room where Max
well was sleeping. Softly awakening
the sleeper, he questioned him concern
ing the whereabouts of the Kid.
At that moment the hunted youth
sprang into the room, calling out In
Spanish, "Qulen va?" ("Who comes
there?") It was Billy. He was un
armed, and as he reached for his rifle
Garrett shot him. The body of Wil
liam Bonney (Billy the Kid) was bur
ied in the military cemetery at Fort
Stanton July 15, 1881. His age at the
time of his death was twenty-one years
seven months. There his body Is to
day, though in later years a corpse was
exhibited throughout the west as that
of the famous young outlaw. Harper's
Weekly.

Salt Lake.
The Crent Salt lake Is gradually dry
ing up, and the inhabitants of Salt
Lake City seem quite surprised. They
ought not. to be. All Bait lakes owe
their salinity to the fact of their hav
ing no outlet, and a lake without an
outlet is a dying lake.
Nor is death usually, long delayed,
speaking geologically. Lakes Koko
Nor and Lob Nor were undoubtedly
extensive inland seas not so very many
decades ago, yet Sven Hedln found
them reduced to mere acrid puddles
set in the midst of well nigh limitless
salt deserts that oucortjere their beds.
The terrible Taklamakan desert, too,
in which Hedln nearly died of thirst,
was once the bed of just such a lake.
So also were the salt deserts of Persia.
Northern Tibet Is studded with salt
lakes in process of desiccation. The
Aral and the Caspian seas were at one
time far more extensive than is now
the case, proving that they, too, are un
dergoing the inevitable process of des
iccation to which all such bodies of
water are sooner or later invariably
subjected. St Paul Pioneer Press.
Negro Eloquence.
Some years ago one of Texas' widely
known statesmen who is now dead
was passing along a street in Dallas
when an old colored man who bad
once belonged to hltn approached, took
off his bat and passed a band over bis
white wool as he asked:
"Marster, gin de old man 60 cents."
"Dan, you are a robber."
"How?" asked the astonished darky,
opening his eyes, around which rough
shod age had walked.
"Didn't you see me put my baud in
my pocket?"
"Yes, sah."
"Well, you old rascal, you rob me of
the pleasure of giving you money with
out being asked."
The old man received a dollar. Bow
ing almost to the ground, while tears
came out and coursed through the aged
prints nrQijild his eyes, he replied:
"Marster, wld wld such a heart as
you hab nnd wld Abraham and Isaac
and de Lord on your side I don't see
what can keep you out of heaven."
Sitting Bull.
To look at Sitting Bull one would say
that he was always quiet and self con
tained. In fact, he did usually keep
himself under control, but he was cruel
and almost heartless. He had prac
ticed cruelty to animals and men from
his childhood and as long as he lived;
he was full of passion aud.. often very
angry. He was always Imperious and
insolent toward our generals, the In
dian agent and other friends of the
great father at Washington, whom he
claimed to bate. He had great talent
and ability to plan campaigns nnd bat
tles nnd wonderful influence In bring
ing Indians together. Notwithstand
ing all this, he was afraid of death,
and, though he planned the greatest
victory which the Indians ever gained
over white men, Sitting Bull himself
was a coward aud disgraced himself
even before his own people by running
away in the very face of success.

Folklore Stories.
The Journal of American Folklore
has some interesting folk tales of the
Nez Perces Indians:
"Once the sun fell down from the
sky just about sunrise. Mole cuught
it and held it up until people got there
and helped him to shove it back. The
sun had meant to roll along on the
ground instead of in the sky. It was
from holding up the sun that Mole's
hands are bent so far back.
"Coyote and Cloud ran a race. Cloud
bet storm and Coyote clear weather.
They started far away to the south,
and for awhile Coyote was in the lead.
Then Cloud made fruits of all kinds
to grow in front of Coyote, and he,
looking back and seeing Cloud far be
hind, stopped to eat In this way
Cloud caught up and won. This is
why we have storms in winter time."
Long Suffering Bill.
A correspondent sends the following
to a remote rural organ of the people:
"Our esteemed fellow citizen, Mr.

HOW HE SLEPT.
His Experience With a Noisy and Per
atatent Cuckoo Clock.
Wcrlz recently was presented with
an old fashioned clock. That evening
he bung Hon his bedroom wall, wound
It up nnd after admiring It awhile
went to sleep. He was drifting Into
very pleasant dreams when he was
startled.
"Coo-coo, coo-coo!"
Wertz sat up with a start, but In an
instant recovered his wits and listened
to eight more coo-coos with a foolish
grin.. Then he lay back and went to
sleep again.
He had got into a fine doze by the
time the thing went off again. This
lime he didn't grin.
Wertz is n light sleeper, and, though
he tried to get used to the thing, he
gave up after the cuckoo had announc
ed 2 o'clock and got up and stopped
the clock.
Next evening Wertz junior, who hiitl
not seen the clock, went to look at It.
"Why, it's stopped," he said. "What
Is wrong?"
Wertz senior stroked his chin.
"Maybe I didn't wind It this morn
lug." he replied. "Ferd," he continued
generously, "If you will promise to
wind Hint clock every morning I'll let
you have it for your room."
Wertz Junior was delighted, and the
transfer was made.
At the breakfast table next morn
ing the heir of the house of Wertz
looked tired nnd somewhat sheepish
but offered no explanation. After con
siderable general conversation his fn
ther said:
"You look tired. How did you sleep
last night?"
Wertz junior yawned.
"By the hour," he answered. Kan

SAVED THE GIRL
An Old Time Adventure With 8olo
mon Island Cannibals.
One day on a Solomon bench n little
girl ran to me and, before I was aware
of It, placed my foot on her neck. One
knows what this means well enough.
In hot war It meaus that if a chief al
lows bis foot to rest on the defeated
one's neck the man's life Is safe, but he
Is a slave forever, rescue or no rescue.
I was puzzled at the child's action. Jt
was soon explained. Shortly afterward
down came n lot of villagers nnd in
sisted on taking tho youngster. I told
them what film had done. They said
they did not care. Her mother was be
ing cooked in the town, and the child
should go to the ovens with her.
"Never!" I said. "What! We, who
have eaten betel nut together many
times, to quarrel for a rnero child to
whom I have granted life In your own
way!" I swore they should kill me
first. They replied:
"Oh, that is an easy thing to do."
A bold front was the only thing now.
Luckily I had my sixteen shooter.
Springing back and putting a mark on
the sand with my foot, I swore I would
shoot the first man who crossed It
They knew I could answer for a dozeu
of them or so, and, although clubs were
up and bows bent, they hesitated, as
well they might, and I knew I had
mastered them. Then one proposed I
should buy the child fairly. They
cared not to fight a friend. To this I
at once agreed, and a muss was thus
avoided, and a mission ax worth ten
pence made me a slave owner.

The Century Plant.
The century plant, so named because
of the popular idea that it blooms but
once In a hundred yenrs, In one sense
makes good its name, for it blooms
only once, then dies. In the genial
climate of southern California It reach
es maturity and blooms In fifteen or
twenty yenrs, while in colder climates
the period may range from forty to
fifty years. There are many species of
the agave family native to northern
Mexico, where it is called the maguey.
The plant furnishes "pulque," the na
tional drink of Mexico. At tho time of
blooming the plant throws up a single
stock of rapid growth to the height of
twelve to twenty feet, from which the
tassel-like . flowers sprout forth. This
great flower stalk draws all the sap
and rigor from the body of the plant,
which soon withers and dies.
