lLtttef U CnlCaBO tribune.
In Illinois you generally hang your
murderers and imprison your thieves.
But Texas has cheaper plan than that.
1t costs a good deal of money to prose
cute criminal in Texas; so the state
authorities collect the names and de-
scription of every murderer and thief in
the state. These names they print III q big
book, and then they offer a reward for
them, dead or alive. l saw this book in
Austin. 1t contains over 1000 names.
The result is, all these criminals, as
soon as the reward is offered, flee the
country. They go to New Mexico, the
Indian nation, and over the Shreveport,
La. A Texas murderer would be a
very fair citizen in Shreveport. If the
Texas authorities should go to Shreve-
port, l believe they would find 900 of
their 1000 murderers preaching on
teaching school. No man is consider
ed AL in Shreveport who has not killed
his man. Texas is paradise of virtue
compared with Shreveport.

Rapidly, one after another, under the
eyes of the enraged wreckers. Then all
became blackness again. The storm
rumbled away, and no more blue lights
were burned out at sea- Margaret had
rushed off with the red rockets, which
had probably warned the distressed ship
to keep clear of the treacherous coast.
Anyhow, the ship was not wrecked nor
heard of again.
Nor was Margaret Pencorrow ever
