Al woman's Strength,

A striking looking young woman came
into Delmonico's yesterday. She was tall
and Of magnificent proportion, with fair hair
and deep blue eyes -Brunhilde In new spring
gown. .ao4 .... .3aay 1901 III.
81 saw that young woman do most re-
nlarkable thing a few days ago in the park, y
said o man who sat with q party of friends
near the door. "There are not many men
who are strong enough to do it. She was
alone and was walking along with pair Of
mastiffs at her side. The dogs seemed III dis
posed toward each other, and from occasional
snarling broke into angry growls and then
sprang at zach others throats' Instead OF
running as most women would have done
she walked coolly over TO them and struck
them smcrtly about the head and neck with
the little riding whip she carried in her hand
But it had no effect. The next thing she die
was to throw the whip away, catch the collar
of one Of the huge animals with the righ'
hand and the other with the left, and by
sheer force Of muscle hurl them apart. Sh'
stood there for minute, her hand IN tn
collar of each dog, holding them out OF arm
length and half lifted from the ground. Th'
half choked animals stopped their growls am
were quiet. A moment longer she held them
then with a sharp word of reproof she let s.
| her hold on the collars, picked up her WIFI
and went calmly on with the conquere'
brutes following closely behind her, /. !.

glowered with the prejudices and revenge
of centuries shall brighten with the smile
of heaven as he commands: Whatsoever
We would that men should do to you, do yt
even so to them"

A Petrihed Priest.

While breaking new ground for farm on
the left bank of the Arkansas, half mile
from Bonneville, Colo, the laborers exhumed
the petrifed body of a man clothed in the
habit'ofa Roman Catholic priest. The dress
and the figure might have passed for thecun-
ming handiwork of some great master OF
sculpture. The two hands were clasped
about an ivory cruciflx, which hung from a
rosary suspended about the neck, while the
head of an arrow, still protruding from the
breast, told the story Of how the worthy
father met his death; and the fact, so plain
to be seen, that the body was hastily buried
without coffin and the grave unmarked by
the smallest token, showed that he and his
brethren or some faithful friend were fleeing
from tIe Indians when he was killed. '''
Tie petrifled body was removed to the
Church of the Annunciation, where it wa!
visited by crowds from all over the county
The face is that of young man OF refined
aud intellectual features, and the hands ant
feet are of elegant proportions. Those wht
profess to know declare that his shoes are Of
fashion worn in the latter partof the Sew
enteenth century Mt which time. as is vel
known, devoted Spanish missionaries VISITED
the country for the purpose of converting

A number of people have expressed dis

a town Of this state. Lieut.. Slaughter was O
brave soldier, who battled for the white man

a little band of soldiers, who many a time

The plaintiff lived with his uncle, said de-
ceased, iutestate, and claims that there was
verbal understanding between them that
he should inherit the property that before
writings were made to that effect his uncle
died, and he prays, by bill in equity, to
have decree in his favor compelling the
heirs of the deceased to convey the prop
srty. The heirs deny any verbal contract
of that nature, but do say that the under
standing was that he should carry on the
place only during said uncle's lifetime, and
they bring suit against the plaintiff for
some $1,000 of personal property of said
deceased, appropriated by said Yeatton.
D. d. Stewart with J. J. Parlin appeared
for plaintiff, and S. s. Brown for defend
ant. Judge Foster will reserve his decis-
ion until September term s. j. Court.
