BEN THoMPSoN,S END.
True Story of How the Desperate Was
Sent Over the Range.

True Story of How the Desperate Was
Sent Over the Range.
There has been very great deal Of
nonsense printed about Tie killing of
the Texas desperate, Ben Thompson"
said G. G. Bengener, who was discuss
ing the erstwhile terror with some
friends at the Southern. Il CHANGED
to see the killing and can state posi-.
lively that the story that he was assas-
sinated by men concealed for that pur-
pose in the boxes of the Vaudeville
Theatre in untrue. In 1888 Ben killed
Jack Harris, one of the proprietors of
the Vaudeville Theatre at San Antonio.
About a year later he went from Aus
tin to San Antonio in company with
King Fisher, deputy sheriff of Uvalda
county. Fisher had been a desperate
and it is said that he had killed twenty
men. He was small man and as
clever, soft-spoken a little gentleman
as you would meet in days march.
He had quit playing bad man, how
ever, and was good officer and holy
terror to the toughs. Ben had been
drinking before he left Austin. Arriv-
ing in San Antonio he continued his
spree. He had no pistol, but Dor
rowed one, and sent word to Joe Eos
ter, Jack Harris's old partner, that he
was coming up to the Vaudeville to
see the gang Fisher tried to keep
him away from the place, but he would
go. Arriving there he went up to Eos
ter and offered to shake hands. Fos
ter declined. Thompson drew his PTS
toll and showed the muZzle into Fosters
mouth, cursing him meanwhile. A
half-breed Mexican named Coy seized
Thompson's hand, pulled it down and
held it, and Foster drew his gun and
shot him to death. After Thompson
had received a bullet in the brain he
began to shoot, with Coy swinging to
his pistol hand, and MORALLY wounded
Foster Billy Sims, a wellknown San
Antonio character, drew his pistol and
shot King Fisher through the head.
The latter looked him square in the
eye and Kissed Coward! Foster and
Sims continued to shoot until both
Thompson and Fisher We're down and
dead.
Every wound upon the bodies was
powder-burn so close We're the COM
batants. Simss defense was that
Fisher was a desperate man, he be-
lieved him about to take hand in the
melee, and that if he did so there
would be several dead men around
there. The coroner rendered a ver-
dict of jllstifiable homicide, and no in
dictment was found against Sims. Fos
ter died at an early hour the next
morning from the effect of wounds in
ficted by Thompson. The story that
a concealed party assassinated Thomp-
son Is rank nOnsense."-St. Louis Globe

FLIGHT OF THE CROWS.
Armies of Birds in the Sky Fastening to
the South.

Armies of Birds in the Sky Fastening to
the South.
THE preliminary gathering of crows
before they take their flight to the
Southland at the approach of winter is
always interesting to me-" said Frank
Gunther, while enjoying cigar in the
parlor of the Lindell. II do not think
that they take their flight from this
section of the country, as the winters
here are not severe enough. But from
the Dakotas and the Southern Cana
dian Provinces they leave in great
numbers after the first severe frosts.
One cold, frosty morning l arose and
looked out of my bedroom window in
Red Eric, Oak, down into a neighbor-
ing cornfeld that was bounded by Il
rail fence and from which even the dry
shocks had been removed. Only the
stubble, bleak and frost-covered, re-
manned.
The village of Red Eric, Oak, is
locally famous for crows. They gather
about there in large numbers and OBJ
tain considerable food from neighbor-
ing wild rice marsh. l noticed that the
tiers of rails, rising seven in number,
were thickly sprinkled with crows,
perched about and cawing most vocif-
erously. 1 was rather amused at the
spectacle and stood enjoying it, when
1 observed long line Of crows APP
preaching from over neighboring
patch Of forest. These also settled
down within the inclosure. l watched
for several hours and continually OBJ
served great docks of crows to come
from all directions and gather in the
field. By noon the fences and ground
fairly swarmed with the birds. 1t
seemed to me that there were hundreds
of thousands. Then no more came for
a while. The denouement of the whole
affair was great tapping of wings,
and, division by division, the great
gathering left in harmonious order IT
took them fully half an hour before
all were under way. When the last
flock or division took wing 1 looked to
the south and saw the line dimly fad
ing away into space. Then | knew
they We're migrating, and l fully under
stood the beauty of that harmonious
smile, Like the flight of birds. st.

On a Peruvian Cliff

Explorers have found a great many
mummies in caves In cliffs among the
Peruvian mountains. How the Indians
who entombed their dead in this way
reached the caves hundreds of feet
down the side of steep cliffs is matter
of conjecture.
A French traveller, NJ. Wsiner, mar.
rates a visit to one of these sepulchres,
and the serious danger he was in of
ending his travels then and there.
u went with two Indians" he writes,
"to point on high plateau below
which was one of the caves, and had
the Indians lower me over the precipice
with leather ropes. A journey OF o
hundred metres straight downward,
made in such q way, ID extraordinarily
long I arrived at last at the tomb. It
was half closed with rocks. 1 went in
and found two skulls and mummy. I
tied the skulls to my belt and taking
the mummy in my arms gave the sig
nal for the Indians to draw me up.
They obeyed and gradually I neared
the top of the presiplce. The Indians
had not looked over it, and had no sus-
picion OF what was bringing in my
arms. When the yellow skull of their
ancient ancestor appeared above the
edge Of the cliff, the Indians were so
terribly frightened that they let slip
the ropes.
Il cannot describe nay feelings in the
the next second, the awful terror of be-
ginning to fall. In my fright let 60
of the mummy and 1t was dashed into
n thousand pieces at the bottom of the
abyss. But the Indians had not lost
their hold Of the ropes; they drew me
up again and in moment stood in
safety at the top of the precipice.
MY superssitious Indians explained
to me that when those good people, the
mumrnies. are disturbed, by Indians
they seize them In fatal embrace, and
they assured me that as this mumny's
head rose into their sight it opened its
mouth and would have uttered fear
full curse upon them had it not just
then been dashed to the bottom of the
abyss" ,s.ss

RALEIGH AS A ROMANCER.
Sir Walter Told Extravagant but Delight
full stories of Travel.

full stories of Travel.
While in Paramaribo, writes Toledo
Bee correspondent, secured genuine
treasure-a musty little volume which
is no less than Sir Walter Raleigh's own
account of his first voyage to these
parts, made in 1896. After perusing
it one is almost reconciled to the be-
heading of the gallant old nobleman
at the hands of an ungrateful sovereign.
If for nothing more than the lies he
told. Space permits the quotation of
few lines only. Speaking of the
island Of "Trinadado," where the party
first landed, he says: i" 1t hath stores
of deer, wild perks, fruits, fish and
fowl. A salt river hath stores Of oys.
ters upon the branches of the trees,
which were very salt and we'll tasted.
All their oysters grow upon those
boughs and sprays and not on the
ground. The Spaniards confessed that
they found grains of gold in some OF
the rivers, but they having the pur-
pose to enter Guiana the magazine of
rich metals, cared not to spend time in
search thereof" Arrived in Guiana he
writes: because there may arise many
doubts, and how this empire of Guiana
is become so populous, and adorned
with so many great cities, towns, tenn
pies and treasures (?), I thought
good to make it known that the EN-
peror now reigning is descended from
those magnificent princes of Peru, of
whose large territories, Of whose poll
cies, conquests, edifices and riches
Francisco Lopez and others have writ
ten large discourses. The empire of
Guiana is directly east from Peru to-
wards the sea. and lieth under the
equinoxial line, and it hath more
abundance of gold than any part of
Peru, and as many or more, great
cities than even Peru when it -four
ished most. I have been assured
by such as have seen Manoa, the i'm
perial city of Guiana, which the Span
iards call Ell Dorado, for the greatness,
the riches and for the excellent seat, it
far exceedeth any of the old world, at
least so much of the world as is known
to the Spanish nation. 1t is founded
upon lake of salt water, 100 leagues
long, like unto Mare Caspium. The
first that ever saw Manoa was Johan-
mes Marines, master of the munition
to Osdace. At a port called Morequito,
in Guiana, there lieth at this day
great anchor of Osdace's ship; and this
port is some 800 miles within the land,
upon the great river of Orinoco." ..,,,
