Among the visitors Mt The office OF the Board
of Supervisors yesterday was John Brcc,
fiftcen-year old boy. who is herding cattle u
few miles below the city. Master Brlcc's
purpose in calling was to claim the bounty on
a wildcat scalp which he hal brought with
him. and, To show the scalp was genuine, lie
also brought along the skin from which the
scalp was detached
Day before yesterday, while riding across
the range, he discovered the cut lying In the
shade of n tree, asleep. II" rola 10 T.
without waking 1t anu struck 1t a stunning
blow on the head with the butt of heavy
whip. The blow served only to iuaugIlrnte Il
fight, and the boy was compelled l." give the
cat a wider berth. He was unHrm' d, and SO
depended on his lariat. He mace several
throws which the cat cvaded, all the time
approaching the hOrscman, who was more
than once disposed TO give up the fight, Dc
casionally the cat would seize the lasso and
tear it vlciously. AT last successful throw
fastened It, and the fcrocious animal was
dragged to death II was a magnificent
specimen and weighed Nifty pounds. IhU1't1

all? Il trust you with my very soul"
The words chased her about like tor
menting demons. Was she worthy of
his trust?
Oh, if she only had that letter back
from the mailbox-that cold, doubt
ing, scornful letter. She would think
twice before she would send it. But
she could never get it back. She knew
better than to cherish any such hopes.
Once, a wild temptation assaulted her
to appeal to the postman-a pleasant
faced young fellow, who was never
too fatigued or busy-even in his
long and wearisome rounds-to offer
CHEEKY greeting. Then she rec
objected the impossibility of his grant
ing such request, so decidedly
against ORDERS and SO, at last, poor
Stella resigned herself to the in
evitable. The letter was gonc-no
doubt it was on its way, even now,
to that far-off Northern city; she must
be resigned, and'submit humbly to the
consequences of her own rash act.
But Stella was destined to retrieve
her error in n way least expected,
CHANGING over the evening paper she
saw in the list of letters ''held for
postage'-onc addressed to the name
of her lover. a great hope sprang up
IN her heart that it might be the letter;
for no one else in that town CORE
sponded with him and, in fact, Teddy
was quite a stranger there. So, flu Il
of hope, Stella hastcned to the post
office. She knew that she would not
be permitted to claim the letter, but
only to atiix the necessary stamp, In
her angry haste to mail the letter,
which would dissolve all bonds be-
tween Teddy and herself, she had
utterly forgotten to place Il stamp
The postmaster was an old friend of
her dead father, and to him she told
her story-all, emitting nothing. She
begged so hard to be allowed to claim
possession of her letter, that he smil-
ingly consented; and so-perfectly
happv-Stella carried the letter home.
Once there, the first thing she did was
to put it into the fire.
Then she seated herself and wrote
Teddy tender, loving letter telling
him of the communication which She
had received from Mr.. Smithson, and
inclosing the letter itself to Teddy.
This time she did not forget a post
age stamp. The letter was hardly
mailed when the postman brought her
one from Teddy Daen:

ONEARTHED A CITY.
A Village of the stone Age Unearthed In
Guatemala.


A buried city has just been discovered in
Guatamaia upon the estate OF Don Manuel j.
Alvarado, at the foot of the Volcano de Aqua
about mile and half to the eastward OF the
present village of Santiago de los Caballeros
On several occasions, says the New York Tel
gram, the proprietor has noticed articles hay
ing strong resemblance to the domestic
utensils OF the North American Indians at
the period OF the discovery of the new world
He finally decided on an excavation and, at
depth oil from two TO five meters, he I'M
earthed number Of interesting articles, such
as domestic utensils, faience vesses engraved
and fancy painted glasses, vases and kitchen
pots, all In good preservation. Also onyx
axes, hammers. swords knives and lance
heads; in fact. the whole series of weapons In
use In the pre-Columblan times was fully rep
resented.
Along with these were great number OF
painted clay idols, fine pearls turquo!scs and
other precious stones. Among the latter was
one of magnificent green color. called by
the natives chmcuiytl, worn only by princes.
One of the glassci was oruamented with col
ors. The statues, carved In black basalt, dis
played great artistic skill and are the more
remarkable from the fact that their sculptors
had only stone implements. So far, at least,
no trace OF metal has been found In the exca-
walton, 20 II is probable that the buried city
pcrtained to the stone age.
At depth of only one and half metres
the workmcn came on the walls of the houses
of the buried city. At the level OF the floor
of those they discovered a confused mass of
human skclctous-sonic IN sitting postures,
some on their backs, some on their faces,
some of the skeletons showing the inhabi-
tants to have been giants. The positions OF
the skeleton and In fact, the whole condi-
ton of the rins point TO the conclusion that
the city was alddenly swallowed by an earth
