Late Mrs. George Putnam.

THE circumstances attending the
death of Mrs. George Haven Putnam.
wife of the senior member of the we'll
known publishing house, are" says the
Critic, particularly sad. Her husband
and two daughters were abroad when
she was taken ill. The former was
about to leave for home, the latter were
to remain abroad to finish their studies,
having just been graduated with honor
from Bryn Mawr. Mr.. Putnam arrived
in New York Saturday last, the day aft
er his wife's death, the news of which
he was entirely unprepared for, her ill
ness from typhoid fever having been
very short as well as very severe. Mrs.
Putnam was most active in all reform
and philanthropic movements, and her
influence and practical interest will be
sadly missed by all her associates. She
was healthy-minded woman, and un-
til her last illness she enjoyed the best
of physical health, too, if one may Judge
by appearance. She was a woman of
sound common sense and cheerful dis
position, and her gracious presence
made many a dull occasion bright. Mr..
Putnam has the sympathy Of a large
circle of friends in his severe bereave-
ment"

exhaustion. "I have brought him herG
tied. Now keep your part Of the agree
ment."
He had stopped in front Of Saints
Rest as he uttered these words.
Every loafer there was on his feet.
"Hooray fer Bold Billyw cried one.
"Derned eff he amt done 1t, though
dunno how he ever succeededw
wall, kinder reckon we'll hev ter
keep our part of the contract, eh
pards?" said Belly Briggs, as he came
down the steps
That's right" shouted the crowd in
unison.
Three minutes later Hank Bloodgood,
the killer" was swinging from tho
limb of a tree.
Bold Billy watched the work complet-
ed, then he swayed, put out his hands,
and fell in senseless heap.
The men hastily bent over him.
Great snakesr' shouted Bolly Briggs.
He's got two bullets in ther left shoul-
der! Hank done some shootin', but
this yere boy took him all the samer
"Whar's Doc. Seldom"
The doctor was on hand, full to the
chin with bad liquor, but still able to
extract bullet.
The job was done, Bold Billy's
wounds were bathed and bandaged,
and he was taken to nearby hut.
And there he lay for weeks, nursed
by the ruffians of Satan's Camp-nursed
with all the care and tenderness posi-
BILE from masculine hands.
Doc. Seldom attended the boy, and ths
miners and roughs fixed it so the doc
tor could not get a sup of liquor in
the camp during the entire time.
From a street row or saloon brawl in
which he had killed man, citizen
of the place would go to his bedside
of Bold Billy and play the solicitous
nurse.
And they pulled the boy through.
When it was all over, with Bold Billy
restored to health, they were all happy
that he discovered Old Grim's secret
found the hermit's cabin was built
over the mouth of rich lead-a paying
vein.
Satan's Camp was proud of him.
The rough and tough citizens stood
by him through thick and thin, and
when Bold Billy sold his mine and de-
parted, all regretted his loss.
He had sand in his craw," Bolly
Briggs was wont TO say-"wall he did,

He did not dare.

Somehow. fer all of their general
had come to leave Old Grim unmolest-
Cd
They regarded him as a harmless old
hermit who somehow managed to live,
and they would have regarded it as a
disgrace to pick a quarrel with him.
But they made sport of Bold Billy
whenever the boy appeared in the
place.
One day Hank Bloodgood came into
Satan's Camp.
He straightway started in for a rack
ct.
The liquor to be obtained in Satan's
Camp was rank. and Bloodgood was
soon fighting drunk.
He had record, and long one, too.
More than one good man, as well as
more than one ruffian, had fallen be-
fore Bloodgood's guns.
He was not destined to get out OF the
town without shedding blood.
The quarrel occurred in Murphy's,
and Bloodgood shot Red Hutch dead.
Then he started out to run the town,
and he ran it for awhile.
Satan's Camp was not a place one
man could run long, however. and
Bloodgood was soon obliged to get out
or lose his scalp.
He got out, but on his way out of
town he stopped long enough to shoot
Old Grim.
Then he went on his drunken course.
leaving a terrified boy weeping and
wailing over the body of the man who
had been so kind to him.
An hour later Bold Billy came rush
ing into Satan's Camp.
In the greatest excitement he told
them what had happened, and then he
entreated them to pursue the murderer
and bring him to justice.
They laughed at him.

II ever a boy was frightened it was
the one in the clutch of Red Hutch.
'Wot's yer name, kid?" demanded
the ruffian. as he gave the lad savage
shake. Speak up livelyw
"Bub-bub-billy Bub-bub- -bolden,"
was the reply that came through the
chattering teeth of the unfortunate
waif
Billy Bolden, Ell? Wall, that's nice
name for kid like you to wear around!
Billy Bolden-Bold Billy. How is that
for handle, pards?"
Its greatw shouted Red Hutch's
sycophants, "Hooray fer Bold Billy"
From that hour the boy was known
In Satan's Camp as Bold Billy.
Before he escaped from Murphy's he
was nearly frightened out of his wits
for he was made to dance to the tune
Of pistol-shots, while the ruffians
roared with laughter.
Shaking like leaf he finally sue
ceeded in getting out of the saloon, and
then ran as fast and as far as he
could.
Finally, overcome with terror and
exhaustion, he fell in fainting, quiv-
ering heap beyond the limits of the
town, and there Old Grim found him.
Old Grim was grouty hermit who
lived beyond the limits of Satan's
Camp.
He was something of a mystery.
He had been there when the first
prospector struck yaller" at the spot
where the camp stood, but the dis
covery of gold had not seemed to af-
feet the queer old man in any way.
He lived on in his secluded fashion.
and the people that came to the mush-
room camp grew to know him by sight.
but no other way.
He would have nothing to do with
then.
Old Grim's clothes were in rags. and
he appeared like a wreck of better
times.
He spoke kindly to the boy.
At first Billy was too frightened to
tell his story, but he finally succeeded.
Old Grim listened to the end, and
then he said:
1T is like those human beasts down
there. Come with me; 1 will care for
you.
So he took the boy to his cabi9, and.
from that day, Bold Billy wa4 Old
Grim's shadow-where one went the
other might be found.
While Old Grim lived. the boy never
ssa'u visited Old Satan's camp alone.
