A DEsPERAD0's ESCAPE.

A communication from Santa Fe, New
Mexico, says: Full particulars of the
escape of William Boney, alias "Billy
the Kld," from the Jail of Lincoln county
have reached here. The Kid was in
charge of Bob Alminger and J. W. Bell
deputy sheritfs, cool and brave men. 1t
seems, however, that by docile behavior
the prisoner put them off their guard.
On the evening Of the day in question
Alinger had gone to supper, leaving Bell
to watch the prisoner. Bell was sitting
on the floor talking, when the Kid, who
was heavily shackled and handcufed,
approached him pleasantly and suddenly
jumped at him with the swiftness OF q
wildcat, hitting him on the head and
fracturlng his skull. He then ,snatched
Bells pistol and shot him in tho breast.
Bell ran down the steps and foil at the
foot corpse. The Kid kicked open the
door, procured a Ratchet and knocked
off his shackles. He also broke open the
door of the armory and took possession
ofseveral guns and pistols. Bob Alinger,
hearing the shot, left his supper and ran
toward the jail. When entering small
gate leading through the Jail fence, the
Kid, who was upstairs, shot him with
q gun loaded with buckshot, killing him
instantly. The town of Lincoln seemed
terror-stricken, and nobody thought O
opposing the Kid. He stole horse ane
rode off, armed with four revolvers ant
Winchester rife. He has expressed
determination to kill Governor Lev
Wallace, who failed to pardon him, an'
who, by curious coincidence, signe'
the Kids death warrant at Santa Fe o.
the same day that he escaped at Lincoln

NO TIME FOR HATING.
A. J. II. DUGAHNE.

Becone with feud away with strife
Our human hearts nnmatng
Let us be friends again! This HE
Is all too short for hating
So dull the day so dim the way,
So rough the road we're faring-
Far better veal with faithful friend,
Then stalk alone uncaring'
The barren tig, the withered vine,
Are types of selfish living;
But souls that give, like thine aud mine,
Renew their life by giving.
While cypress waves DER early graves,
On all the way we're going,
Far better plant, where seed is scant,
Than tread on fruit that's growing.
Away with scorn since die we must
And rest on one low pillow;
There are no rivals in the dust
No foes beneath the willow.
50 dry the bowers, so few the flowers .
Our earthly way discloses
Far better stoop when daisies drsop
Than tramp DER broken roses
OF what are all the joys We hold
Compared to joys above us;
And what are rank, and dover and gold,
Compared to hearts that love us
So feet our years, so full Of tears,
So closely death is waiting;
God gives us space for loving grace,
Bat leaves no time for hating,

HER TERRIBLE ADVENTURE.
Virginia New Chronicle

There were a party of four couples
coming over on the Sarcelito boat, last
Sunday, and the prettiest girl OF the
gushers looked up at Mount Tamalpals
and said:
"Oh, that horrid, horrid mountain.
I had the most frightful adventure up
there last summer you ever heard OF
It's wonder my hair didn't turn white"
"What on earth was it ?" chOrused
the rest.
"Well, you sec, l was up there with a
private picnic party, and wandered OFF
by myself about mile, picking flowers
After awhile / sat down to rest in a
lonely canon, and before long | heard
a queer rustling sound in some bushes
right behind me- knew at once, some
how, that it was grizzly.
"Great Scott and you all alone"
shuddered her escort.
"Not soul within mile of me. l
was just paralyzed with terror. l didn't
dare to stir, but in q minute / heard the
beast coming toward me through the
thicket."
ooh, if Pd only been there" said a
pimply-faced Young man, breathing
very hard.
81 knew it was no use to try and run,
and | had read somewhere that bears
never touch dead people. So | just
shut my eyes and held my breath"
Gracious"
"Pretty soon the great brute walked
up close and began shifting me all over
Oh, it was just terrible"
"Should have thought you would have
tainted"
"Oh, l didn't dare to" said the hero
inc.
"Just then | suppose the party rushed
up and rescued you !" said the appalled,
audience.
''No, they didn't. Pretty soon tei
the great beast pulling at the flowers il
my hat, so l just got up and shooed tn
the horrid thing away"
"What! the grizzly"
: ooh, It wasn't grizzly. 1t was
. nasty old COW. But just suppose 1t ha
been a grizzly"
But the audience refused to suppose,

feasible, and we determined that the
attempt should be made. But an I'M
foreseen obstacle presented itself at the
very threshold Of our enterprise. Ow-
ing to the arrangement Of the logs COM
posing the bomb-proof we were unable
to reach the haversack, and it was only
after the loss of much valuable time
that we succeeded in recovering it. Ev-
erything now depended on the selection
of the proper direction for our mine.
Above our heads the logs lay thick
and solid, and, indeed, we could dis
cover no breach anywhere, although
the partial falling in Of our bomb proof
showed that there had been considera-
bic displacement at the moment of the
explosion. No course remained for us
but to burrow under the bottom row OF
logs loosened the dirt, pushed in be-
hind me and the sergeant packed it
away wherever he could find space. We
were agreeably surprised at the rapldity
of our progress. In about two hours, as
we calculated, we had mined hole,
quite outside of the bomb-proof, large
enough to admit Of our passage. we
now worked towards the surface, and
presently we guessed, by the looseness
of the material, that we were passing
through the mass that had been elected
from the mine, covering the bomb proof
under six or eight feet Of clay and sand.
Our progress was rapid, and soon, with
grateful hearts, we congratulated each
other ON the prospect of ultimate de-
liveranoe. At thislast stage in our pro-
gress the spoon broke in two, bat We
had almost reached the goal; quarter
of an hours additional labor restored us
to the blessed air and light. We had
worked for life with desperate haste
and we emerged from the hole trem'
bling in every nerve, nearly naked, ant
with our bodies encrusted with dirt ant
perspiration. By comparison OF al
the circumstances of our terrible ad
yenture-the time was IL H., little be
fore the successful charge OF the Con
federate brigade commanded by Genera
@. A. Weisiger-we had been entombe'
five hours.
= The scene that now met our eyes at
fcrded wonderful contrast to the 81
lence and solitude of our late prison
The Federals were in full possession
our fort, or rather what remained OF
after the explosion of the mine, and
our lines for some distance to the righ

welcomed in the Opera House, first by

strides OF science said he well re-

distinguished DIR. Landner delivered

prophet the steamship was the first 10

Prospect OF the last half century and

hazard nothing in predicting that no
