A BANDITS HORSE.
The Story Of The Animal That Was Ridden BY
VaSQueZ.

VasqueZ was the most noted bandit of the
early days of California. He bid defiance to
the law, eluded the detectives and searching
parties for years, aud killed and robbed half
hundred men. He roamed over the State
OF California, from the north to the south,
leaving desolation and death in his wake.
Every time the robbers appeared, one of
them, the leader, would be mounted upon
white horse. That he had world of speed
was shown in the way that he would gallop
away from the rest of the gang when they
were pursued. The horse was htched be-
hind the house when VaSQueZ was shot.
One of the capturing party tried to take him,
and was severely bitten for his cupidity.
The horse broke away, went careering off
toward the canyon where Vasquez had had
his rendezvous and was lost 10 sight Most
people say he died in the mountains of star
walton, but the Mexicans say not. They
saw him again.
The night alter Vasquez was hanged
white horse galloped up The street to the
Jail, stood moment at the door and gave
neigh. The MeXicans heard in it call to
the dead Vasquez. There came no ans wer
to the horses challenge, and he wheeled
about and went as suddenly as he came
Then he turned bandit aud followed Vas
QueZS old trails. Once in while q man
would be found on the road with his body
frightfully mutilated and his flesh bearing
the marks of hOofs. Sometimes in the night
white horse would appear at the door of a
Mexican cabin in some lonely spot and neigh.
If no answer came he would be off like the
wind, but if any man dared show himself
the horse would attack him with hoof and
teeth, and it was seldom that victim es-
capped.
Time and again he was shot at, and one
Mexican buck was foOlhardy enough to try
to rope him and met horrible death. The
horse bore charmed life. He became al
most as great terror to the MeXicans as
VasqueZ had been to the rich Americans
If by chance a Mexcan'S pony got out of
the corral and wandered off in search of
grass the white horse would find him and
enlist him. First he had one follower, then
Two, than half dozen. No man could kill
them and no man dared to attempt to cap

they were feet as the wind and could ont

In 1921, Florida passed. by treaty, from
the dominion of Spain to that of the United

history since worth noting. The merry

the naughty, brilliant cavaliers; the flower
