osman Bex a Printer.

Osman Bey, the favorite Chamberlain
of the Sultan, followed an Ottoman
prac ice of choosing a mechanical trade
in early youth, as the Sultans do. The
trade that Osman Bey took up was that
of a printer, and he acquired such a
liking for it that it became fayorite
amusement even during his court career,
With a view of encouraging the print
ing of Turkish works, he set up great
cost large printing Office with the best
machinery. and employing two hundred
men. He is now devoting considerable
sum to great paper mill, and as his
attendance on the Sultan no longer al
lows him to give adequate time, he has
turned over the management of the
whole concern to his guardian, Jevad
Bey, who shares his tastes.-Er.

BETRAYED BY A RIVAL.
Throughthe jealousy of a disappointed
sutton for the hand of the fair Lola, the
secret of his hiding place was disclosed
to Pat Garrett, the tall. lank, fearless,
lightning-shot sheriff of San Miguel
County-the only man in New Mexico
who had the necessary nerve and skill
with the rs" to seek a personal en-
counter with Billy. Garrett said not a
word to anyone; prepared his weapons,
and with a single attendant, mounted
on magnificent mustangs, they struck
out for the Bosque, where they ar
rived just at dusk. Leaving the mus
tang with his attendant, Garrett,
being well acquainted at the
hacienda, Eent directly to the
apartment of Pete Maxwell, the~oldest
brother of the beautiful Lola. Maxwell
was in the room when the sheriff
entered and stated his errand. The
lights were net yet lit, and the place
had agloomy appearance when one
entered, till he became accustomed to
the darkness. Pat had no sooner
stated his business than a step was
heard approaching the door. As the
door opened Garrett crouched down be-
hind the bed. A man stepped quickly
over the threshold in his stocking feet,
with knife in his hand. 1t was Billy
the Kid. Seeing the outline of Max
wells form, as he sat on the bed, he

no reply was made, he asked again the
