tZacatecas Letter in Springfield Republican
AS an instance of how little regard the
government has for life, let me tell you u
pitiful story; A child was missing from a
mining settlement at the edge of Zacatecas,
and as weeks went by bringing no trace Of
him the distracted parents imagined that he
had been kidnapped. Thereupon, some thirty
persons, most OF them laboring men about
mines, were taken ouS and shot on the merest
suspicion that they might know something
about the lost boy
About three months afterward somebody
happened to look down into a deep hollow
probably an abandoned prospect hole) not
many yards from The ather's house, and dis
covered something which excited his curios-
ity. Closer Investigation revealed a small
skeleton, the poor child having undoubtedly
fallen in during ono Of the epileptic fits TO
which he was subject, aud had starved to
death within sight OF homei l happened to
be present whom tbs little moldy jacket and
muddy shoes We're brought up, amid a crowd
who wept with sympathy for the mourping
mother; but nobody had u thought OF TIDE
thirty v~ictims-mostly fathers OF families
who We're sacrificed in the uu~ayailing search,
