Bridling q Calf.

In an unlucky hour Mr.. Rice gave
our Sammy a bride for the little colt.
Fortunately the colt was docile. and
soon learned to lead beautifully, and no
bad results came from the experiment
except when the colt vas coaxed up
the woodshed steps and quite demol-
ished them, and had to take a flying
leap out of the door. A boy is not half
a boy who is not constantly making
himself trouble. The colt was brought
into subsection too easily by half. and
Sammy looked for more worlds to con-
quer. and decided to try the calf. He
had heredity TO combat. Neither the
calls father nor mother had been bril-
died. and he didn't see why he should
be. The calf was petted, and cOaxed,
and cornered; but the sight of the bri-
die sent him flying down the lane. bawl-
inc at the top of his voice. The boys
spirit was aroused. All advice 10 let
scorn. Wrath a~lternated with tears,
with occasional CLEANS of hope. in
spired by some new plan of action.
The calf was shut in the barn-yard, but
the boy came out worsted. At last the
father yielded to opportunities and con
senied to help. If ever an animal was
inspired by the Evil One that calf vas.
| He seemed to know the odds were
against him, and that strategy and not
force wa called for. He didn't exactly
| stand patiently, but he male no effort
to run away. He turned this way and
that way. and rolled up his great. in
nocent eyes in a questioning manner.
No one would have mistrusted it, but
he was watching his chance. He re-
iected the bit and the excitement grew.
Hold on 10 him, Sammy; don't let
him go. There, Wen have him bridled
in a minute. Can you hand me that
strap"
Here was the looked-for opportunity.
His heels went mp for the benefit of the
boy, his head did the business for the
man, the bride landed on the fence
post, and
The calf, Oh, where was he?
The boy picked himself up, and would
have made a remark, but he saw his
father could say enough for them both.
The latter vowed, while stanching the
flow of blood from his nose, that he
would never try to bride another calf,
and the boy never asked him to. Do
you suppose for n moment that the
project was given up? No. indeed;
bows are not made of that kind OF
stuff. In less than a week that cali
was walking up and down the road with
a bride on, and Sammy at the end OF
the strap. A committee of boys did il
in about fifteen minutes. The calf new.
er entirely forgot his tricks. but took
advantage ofevery unguarded moment.
and saved the boys in the neighborhood
from getting into lots of mischief by ex'
hausting their superfiuous spirits chasing

Thirteen Full.Grown Men Quietly
Robbed by . MellOw.vOiced
Brigand.

II. NJ. Burton, the alleged stage rob-
Der, who was arrested in Pueblo and
brought to Denver, had his preliminary
examination before Judge Brace yes
terday afternoon. Burton is charged
with robbing the stage running be-
tween Del Norte and Alamosa about
midnight on the night of June 20. The
robbery was one of the most audacious
in the annals of highway robbery, and
links the name of the perpetrator with
that of Billy LIE Roy. The story of the
deed is best tod in the words of J. B.
Mcmillan. of Del Norte, one of the VIC
Tins Of the robbery, and who was the
first and principal witness for the pros
ecution in the examination of yester-
day. He said in substance:
There were eight men and one
woman inside the coach. and four men
beside the driver on top. Twas among
the latter, sitting beside the driver. 1t
wa about midnight, l should think.
and about twenty miles from Del
Norte, when we were halted. 1t was

to halt. There was only one man wis.,

of the coach. The robber was stand.
ing behind q piece of anv stretched
alongside the road. and had . revolver
pointed directly at myself and the
driver. He told US calmly to deliver
ourselves and he would not harm u.s.
but that if we made q bad break ne
would shoot / was on the next to
the robber, and l Immediately got down
from INV seat followed by the driver.
After we got down the robber came
from behind the canvas and placed

Ms to stand still, and himself

She was nttired in plain mourning

era had dwindled till she appeared a
quite slender lady, whose shriveled face
