GuTHEIE, o. T., Nov. 24-The particu-

ranchman named Weaver over a game Of

former of cheating Both men drew pis-
tolls, but eystanders stopped them before
they had a chance 10 use them. The men
were both game and both dead shots. 1t

thing that would settle the trouble, for it
would be sure to be renewed whenever
they met.

were to lead one revolver. blanket
was placed over the table and two re-
volvers placed under the blanket, one
empty and the other loaded. The men
then came into the room and tossed a dol
lar for choice OF pistols. Weaver won the
choice. The terms were that both men
should draw their revolvers from under
the blanket, aim and fire at will. One
would be sure to fall dead. while the other
would be unharmed. The positions were
taken and the revolvers were drawn. Bas-

Too Brave Man to Die.
Without f1inching he placed his revolver
on the table and folded his arms, calmly
looking Weaver in the face. Weaver took
his time, aud deliberately aimed at the
center of Bassett's forehead. After what
must have seemed an eternity to the lat
ter, Weaver slowly raised the pistol and
fired the ball through the air, saying that
Bassett was too brave a man to die, and
he did not believe ne had cheated. The
men became fast friends, and all trouble
between thsm is past.

the burning OF the Gobo temple with
more than fifty people The building
yielded to the shocks and fell, all wor-
shippers being buried with 1t. At least
fifty persons were ingulfed in the fallen
