In every great city the poor live by the

A western court OF justice is often n
scene OF Wild and picturesque excite
mont not 10 sny disorder Such a
scene occurred in Justices court
room at silver City A. T., during
last fall The case was the trial OF
an Indian arrested for stealing horse
from three brothers. rHnchmen.
The prisoner was q tall, well-limbed
Apache youth, not over 10. His face
was the hue OF FURNISHED copper. the
bright warm color OF one-cent piece
fresh from the mint His long black
hair was brushed straight back from
the low slop.ns forehead. and formed
a loop that stood up like a pompon
caught on the top Of his head with n
piece OF rcd ribbon. while long heavy
bralds hung down over his shoulders
falling across his broad chest and tied
with silk floss OF dozen different
bright colors. A long Navajo blanket
hung in graceful folds from his shoEl-
ders completed an attractive picture
of perfect type OF the race.
When the constable entered the
court room with the prisoner; one of
tho accusers with nm oath, bawled
out that he would lynch the red devil
At this the other two took up the
strain and started in TO run the court.
Here the justice. though an old man.
showed his spirit. and jumping on to
the table remarked that he was u
Western man and flghtin' man, and
that he'd have order in that court or
he'd have blood.
Then things cooled down for a while,
or until the brothers began taunting
the lawyer appointed by the court to
defend the prisoner,
That gentleman. taking tie law into
his own hands started in 20 whip tho
brothers three and after two had
measured their lengths on the dirty
floor the constable jumped in with
dubbed revolver and restored order.
After this the trial proceeded without
interruption. Detroit Free Press.

SPEED oF a BULLET.

Second

How fast does bullet travel? Did
you ever figure on this query and try
to reduce the matter to figures? asks
the St Lou.s Republic. Colonel Flag
lers and others who have made inter-
esting experiments looking to solu-
ton OF this question say that as
rule it travels at the rate OF l, 275
feet per second at tho time OF leaving
the rige. This matter of speed is
tested in very interesting way.
A long wooden shed is used In
which distance o; exactly 100 feet
has been carefully marked OF. At
each end of this space is a stand
something like target with large
circular opening where the bull 's-eye
should be. Across each opening is
stretched small electric wire con-
nected with delicate instrument in
another room. The rifle from which
the firing is done is so aimed that the
bullet which flies from it cuts both
wires Obviously the difference In
time between tho cutting of the tive
wires marks tho speed OF the bullet
through that hundred feet Meas
urement of this infnitesimal space of
time is done by an instrument called
Boulinge chroaograph. Whom the
first wire is cut an electric current is
broken aud rod falls. moving
pointer on slide in It's descent. Ihe
breaking OF the second WIRE acts in
the same manner on another set oil
rods slides anu pointers. The differ
ence in the MARKS made by the point
ers on tho slides makes it possible to
estimata the difference in their time
of falling, and from these calculations
accurate figures rs TO tho bulle. :,

GAVE HERSELF UP.

The Wife of the Notorious Apache Kid
S~urrenders to the Authorities.
Ell PAso, Tex, Dec. 13.-From pas
sengers on the Southern Pacific express
from the West it was learned that the
wife Of "Kid," the notorious Indian
refugee, had returned to the San Carlos
reservation and surrendered. She has
accompanied "Kid" on all of his muir
derous raids in Arizona and New Mexico
and talked freely of his exploits. From
her it was learned that Kid
had committed many murders
which had been charged to
others. From her description the
whereabouts of the small band of rene
gades are in the mountains in the
vicinity of Duncan, A. T., without food
and shelter and suffering greatly from
cold and exposure. She confirms the
belief of the army officers that her chief
will never surrender to the authorities
or return to the reservation, but will es-
cape into Mexico, where he has
friends and will be protected. Every
effort is being made by the army to cap
ture Kid and to see that his small band
is not reinforced from the reservation.
His thorough knowledge of the country
makes it almost impossible to effect his
capture, and while he has been sur
rounded many times and escaped when
almost impossible, he has in some mys-
FERROUS got through the regulars
lines and began a new series of murders.

in the building trades in that city in
creased from 25.9 cents per hour to 70
