THE GOOD EXAMPLE
OF A MOTHER.

Almost every one displays some evidences
of the sort of mother that brought them up.
Her influence is seen in their conduct, even
though she may have passed away years be-
fore, and. though very many children are no
credit to their early training. still there will
rugged uneven surface that tells of a leader
whose example once made an impression for
good.
Ii is our belief that there are no bad moth
ers-we never met them ii there are such
anomalies. Motherhood is synonymous with
high desires. instincts. and ambitions. II not
for self for the little life that has come into
the world to be moulded rs the mother wills
Even when childhood has passed and leading
strings have been clipped we hear the senti-
ment of the world voiced in the expression,
it is very easy to tell the sort Of mother he or
she had
Early influences will leave their mark on
later day actions. The training that mother
gives impresses the maturer actions, though
sometimes it is hard to find even a trace of
the good in the superabundance of evil that
has been acquired in willful strayings from
the path marked out by the tender guide.
OF one thing we may be certain. Whatever
good there is in US was imbibed from the
teachings of chiidhood; whatever bad is a
personal requirement. by no means to be COM
mended. Mothers are always the purest,
sweetest. and best beings on the face of the
earth. No one can ever take their place and
no one could even copy successfully their low
ing forbearance and gentle guidance. The
person who IS blessed with a mother away
into old age is happy indeed. for that anchor
restrains without hampering the fragile vessel
anxious to sail forth into the troubled waters.

Many Good Things
of To-day's Market.

Tuesday morning is the first big market
day of the week, though several of the market
houses in addition to the Central are open
every morning. Northern Liberty is one OF
these. on Fifth and X streets northwest.
These market houses in the different Sec
tions are great accommodation to the
neighborhoods in which they are situated, and
although there is no market boacd to regulate
prices. We find them TO be quite uniform.
considering each dealer is his own, based no
doubt upon what is generally understood to
be a good average of profit upon wholesale
prices.
This all works to the advantage of the pur-
chaser If one has time 10 run round and
hunt up bargains.

Passing over the limb. not more than four
feet above my head. the other end of the rope
fell to the ground, where it lay in one or two
coils. Fry picked it up and made it fast to
the nearest tree trunk. In order to do this he
had to draw it tight, taking up all the slack
between my neck and the limb. Thus it
would happen that when the horse was

three OF your number the fourth man he sent
back to Silver City. where he can go to
Lacey's corral and easily satisfy himself of
the truth Of my statements. l then recounted
how and where had bought the animal; how
had packed the bill of sale in my valise and
forwarded it to Globe, and how had left Sill
yer City that very morning at sunrise.
ITO this Bill Fry. as he called himself. dog
gedly retorted that the animal was his, as
was well known to the others there present
that he had that morning discovered fresh
horse signs leading from his pasture in the
direction of Globe. and recognized them as
having been made by his sorrel colt; that in
company with his three companions there
present he had followed the trail and had
overtaken me astride the missing animal:
that what had said about my coming from
town was all lie, for they themselves had
found me going toward town, and, lastly,
that belonged to the gang of horse thieves
that had infested the Gila Valley all summer,
and all my lies were merely for the purpose
of gaining time, hoping for rescue or an
escape.
"What could do? OF course explained
to them about losing my canteen and turning
back to look for it, even begged them to
ride back and find it for themselves, but it
was Of no use. They had made up their
minds that was gully, and that an example

long. and turned back 10 look for it. That
turning back came near bringing me TO my

time TO observe them. 1t proved to be a party

they rode up. the foremost of them brought
his Winchester to bear on me- and ordered
nv hands up. OF course made no DELAY in
complying, as his features were determined
and uncompromising. and he and his party
made four to one against me.
"I reckon you've got a reg'lar bill o. sale

who had his gun on me, with malicious
scowi: you're needin' one pretty bad about

heart gave great jump. The bill Of sale
had received with the horse was in my valise,
by this time well on It's way to Globe: and
what if the animal should prove to have
been stolen by the man from whom had pur-
chased it? However, putting bold face on
the matter, 1 answered: Gentlemen, I assure
you bought this horse in good faith from a
stranger in Lacy's corral in Silver City, and
can easily prove it by turning back with
you, as you seem to be going that way
'' Too old trick sneered the spokesman
Of the party. L reckon we'll settle your case

self dismounting. the others keeping me cov-
cred with their rifles. Then attaching his
reata to my horses neck. he led Off down the
road to the Gila river, his horse and mine
travelling side by side, and the remainder of
the party bringing up the rear. / could not

ton. thought my enemies were still there
and ready to torture me afresh. As my Wis
ion became clear saw a man advancing to-
ward me whom 1 knew. 1t was Sheriff
Tucker of Grant county, n. Man officer
who bore the name on all the border of de-
termined and fearless man, and one wh0,
like the lightning. never struck twice in the
same place. Like the lightning, he did not
have TO. for he never missed his ann. Tucker
had ridden into the glade Just as my would
be murderers had galioped of, and recogniz-
ing my dangling form, ball from his ready
six-shooter had cut me down. severing the
rope that suspended me at the point where it
was drawn tight against the limb above ~
head.
"'Some more of Bill Fry's deviltry,' he
said. grimly. after my story was told. Bill
had better be looking out for his own hide.
I'm down here now with a warrant for his
arrest. He's thought to know more than Is
good for him about that killing over at Pinos
Altos last week. That was his horse you had,
though, sure enough. 1 saw you ride out of
town this morning and recognized the ami
NAL, but did not have time to hail you. 1t
was stolen the day before. of course. and the
trail that Fry and his party were following
when they overlook you was day old and
made by the thief when he rode the horse into
town. They're mighty poor trailers, the lot
of 'em, to make such a mistake. Anyhow,
i m glad got mere IN time. You can be toe

where he borrowed horse for me. Then.
at my earnest request, he gave me the war
rant that he had come down to serve on Fry,
and deputized me to make the arrest Offering
me his Winchester, which refused, though
helped myself to one OF his six-shooters.
Frys ranch was less than a mile up the
river aud, as / rode Off to perform the duty,
my whole being dominated by fierce desire
for vengeance on the ruffian who had been
so eager for my blood. Tucker called out:
BE careful, boy; Fry's a tricky customer. and
may resist arrest. Whatever you do, don't
let him get the drop on you This was my
cue, if l needed one; and the rancher standing
near by heard my instructions, which was an
important point.
There, that's the whole story. said Jen-
kins, after pause.
But how about Fry?' Did you fetch HIN
all right? Did you arrest him and bring him

My friend jenkins is a rabid materialist;
and finding in me certain mild form of op-
position that only serves to stimulate his ar
gumentative powers, he considers me an ex-
cellent listener, and never loses an oppor-
tunity of infiictinS his theories on me. The
ether night, in full tilt astride his favorite
hobby. while reaching around for an exam
pie with which to clinch his argument, he was
betrayed into the relation of an episode from
his past life that found more than usually
dramatic. In fact, SO entertaining was the
story that consider myself amply remuner-
ated for the many long evenings of boredom

death. No. indeed; every heart-throb of the
few precious ones remaining to him is de-
yc'ed to rapid contemplation of the past and
present. both of which he is about to lose for
ever. His memory and observation become
eAnormally acrive; his eye taking note of the
most Insignificant happenings of the mo-
