a man may pass through some great
danger in safety. but the third time he
loses his life. II. however. the mystic
third can be successfully passed. all is
well. Three was called by Pythagoras
the perfect number. and we frequently
find its use symholical of Deity; thus,
we might mention the trident OF Nep-
tune. the three-forkcd lightning OF
Jove. and the three-keaded dog OF
Pluto. The idea of trinity Is not con-
fined TO christianity. but occurs in
several religions.
In myth logy also we find three
Fates. three Furies aud three Graces;

If we look back 20 the days of our
childhood most OF us will call To mind
the three wise men of Gotham. who

Feat That Has Few Parallels In Physical En-
DURANGO aud Bravery.

DURANGO aud Bravery.
1.-THE greatest physical achievement
ever accomplished in this country"
said John L. Graham ~ tho 6lenarm
to- a Denver News reporter. twas tho
ride OF +. y. Aubrey from the plaza
OF Santa Fe. n. NJ. 10 the public
square at Independence. Mo-. "A dis
lance OF nearly eight hundred miles.
through country inhabited by war
like Indians. n large part OF which
was then sandy desert"
Being urged TO give an account OF
the great ride. Graham proceeded;
ut was about the year 1851 that Au-
brey gave his wonderful test OF human
endurance before which all other at
tempts OF the kind pale into insignih-
canoe. He was short. heavy set
man, thirty -eigh. years OF age, in the
prime OF manhood and strength. His
business for ten years as Santa fe
trader had made him perfectly
familiar with the trail and all the
stopping places He was perfect
horseman, and. although there were
great riders in those days, none OF
them cared TO dispute the palm with
Aubrey. On IA wager of $1,000 he
undertook To ride alone from Santa Re
TO Independence inside OF six days.
Ii was thirty-nine ye RS ago that he
undertook the terrible feat Ii was
TO be the supreme effort oil
his life. and he sent hall
dozen OF the swiftest horses ahead to
be stationed at different points for use
in the ride. He left Santa Flo in q
sweeping gallop. and that was tho
pace he kept up during nearly every
hour OF the time until he fell fainting
from his foam covered horse in the
square at Independence. No man
could keep with the rider. and no
would nave killed every horse in the
West rather than to have failed in the
undertaking. II took him just five
days and nineteen hours TO perform
the feat. and IL cost the lives OF sew

eight hours In dead stupor before no
came to his senses He would never
have recovered from the shock had IL
not been for his wonderful constitution.
The feat was unanimously regarded
by western men as tho greatest exhibit

known on the plains

but was acquitted. and. joining the

The burglar looked sharply at Dur
ston. who still covered him with tho
revolver. There was that in the
bachelors face that shook the GOODNESS
OF the intruder. He walked quickly 10
the telephone.

continued Durston. Now look up

"l'he burglar sullenly turned the

the operator.

Tell them you're burglar and

smiling grimly.
"Will one policeman do? they ask, !"
said the burglar.
Use your own judgment in that mat

library. With a cry of despair she
clasped the burglar TO her bosom.

Durston was amazed. He had not
known that his housekeepcr had a

''My only son" she sobbed. II

A few minutes later DurSton stood
on the front steps of his residence aud
watched his housekeepers son ms he
hurried down the street.
