ONLY A MURDERER.
n He Had Boon a Horse-Thief He Won
Have Reen V,vurhAd.


II He HAD Been n Horse-Thief He Would
Have Been Lynched.
1t was in Texas early days that .
furious bowling mob, with grim, pitt
less faces, led out q man to die. Tho
rope had been thrown over q convenient
branch of a cottonwood, and the victim
OF a crowds lawless anger stood in its
midst with pinioned arms and defiant
expression on his pallid countenance.
but every now and then his eyes would
wander away over the prairie, as if re-
membering that never more would he
sweep over is broad bosom with the
fresh spring wind racing at his
side, and to the blue sky over
head. looking his last on its placid
beauty. And as his gaze went out
over the prairie It fingered for .
moment on a dark speck. growing
larger every second, but which still
might have been only a herd of cattle
rushing in stampsdsd terror away from
the corral. On came the speck. how
ever. and wild hope sprang up in the
prisoners breast that this might prove
diversion in his favor, so he spoke not,
nor called the mob's attention to that
hurrying iobject, and, keeping their re-
lentless gaze fixed on him, they de-
manded a confession of his crime.
Why this was asked for is not clear.
They were convinced of his guilt. Had
he not been found riding horse that
the week before had been stolen from
one of their number, who had sworn
to the animal? But this con-
fession would serve as topic of con-
versation for the next month in this
region, where news was as scarce as
railroads. The culprit had nothing to
say. He had protested his innocence
until, perceiving that it was merely a
waste Of breath, he had desisted, and
now preserved stolid silence. He
could now see that the flying object
was a man on horseback, and in anoth-
er minute or two the rider dismounted
In the midst of the crowd, who evil
IDENTIFY recognized him, but in the aw-
full solemnity of that moment had no
time for further greeting of him than
a curt nod or two. The new
conner, accustomed to such scenes,
gave the pinioned man a careless glance
and inquired his offense. They told
him briefly. pointing out the stolen
horse, that stood -, still panAiag from
the terrible ride across the prairie the
prisoner had taken on his back. But
as the arrivals eyes took in the animal,
they wandered back to the man.
"Why. boys, this amt no horse-thief.
saw him buy that horse yesterday
from greaser out to Kerrville. He'd
killed a man there, and the sheriff war
coming ter arrest him, and, bein' as tho
crime war cold murder, he thought he'd
better light out"
Adozen hands were busy untying tho
ropes that bound the man, apologies
were showered upon him and twenty
whisky TASKS were thrust in his face
with entreaties to drink and have no
ill-will over the mistakes
The lately-doomed man accepted all
with careless good nature, and the mob
dispersed, while the visitor fHom ''the
old states" wondered at the cheap rate
human life was held at in this country
compared to the value of cattle and

A BIOLOGICAL QUESTION.

II . Kitten Afraid Of Dog the First Elmo
It Secs Ono?
That seems like very simple quee-
ton, and doubtless many Of our young
readers will be prepared to answer It
offhand with perfect confidence. Yet
they should not be too sure, for men
whose lives have been devoted to tho
study of animals differ widely in opin-
ion on the subject.
Some of them say that kittens are
terrorized even by the smell of a dog
before they have got their eyes open.
Others assert that fear of dogs is some
thing that kittens require little time
and experience to imbibe. And this
question is being debated in scientific
circles just now.
The question is really an important
one in biology. because it is held that
if kittens are born with fear and dis
like of dogs, it must be an acquired in
stinct which has descended to them
from their ancestors, and when the
biologist gets on the track of anything
of that kind he generally succeeds in
drawing some highly-interesing infer.
ences.
But in this case the biologists them
selves are not agreed as to the facts,
and SO here is a chance for everybody
to do little scientific observing of his
own, with a possibility that If his OBJ
servations are carefully and properly
made he may help to lay the founda-
tim for n small addition IN the ma lis of
