Mrs. Stella Fay, who is in the York
Vile prison awaiting examination on the
charge Of kidnapping her own child,
made the rather surprising announcement
last night that she was the widow of a
near relative of Commodore Vanderbilt,
and that her child was heiress to con-
siderable income from the Vanderbilt
family. But more startling aud roman
tic was her story of her second marriage
to Truckman Fay.
Mrs. Fay, who IS about thrty-fi years
old and bears traces of beauty and refine
ment, SAID she had placed her child with
family where she will be wei taken
care 81, and that no power would CON-
pei her to reveal the hiding place. She
SAID that her father, whose name she re-
fused TO give, had been a general III the
Union army and fell at Gettysburg. She
was then at boarding school. She met
Clrard Bryant, cotton broker, residing
at PlaInfield, \. j., and ran away to
| marry him, Bryant, on his mothers side,
was related to the Vanderbilt family.
from whom his mother had an income.
They had one child, Katie When Bry-
ant died, ten years ago, the little one
was three years old. She was to inherit
the bulk of the Bryant estate, worth
some 100000. The girl, however, disap-
peared one day. The widow spent a
| couple thousand dollars left to her by
her father in vain search to locate her.
She then removed into cheaper quarters
| and continued the search. The truck
man who moved the furniture was John
}. Fay, who fell IN love with the widow
He said he would find the child if she
would marry HIM. She consented, and
a month later Fay placed the little heir
| ess IN her arms, and she became his wife,
as she said, purely from gratitude. Mrs.
Fay will be examined to day.

Besant's Cynical Views.

Novelist Walter Besant is credited
with the authorship of these somewhat
cynical views of life as it is lived: 'Out
of ten men nine are born to work for
the tenth. Resolve to be the tenth.
Without trampling the cleverest cannot
get rich. The consolation of those who
fail is to depreciate those who succeed.
The greatest things are done by the
greatest fools. Wise men never at
tempt anything. When you lose leg
begin at once to practice with n wooden
one. Mems motives are mercifully
hidden by their shirt fronts Observe
moderation in all things especially in
virtues. The best way to make man
honest is to make him ashamed of being
found out. There may be pride even
in confessing mistakes Everybody
says that gentle birth is an accident and
every body treats it as an achievement.
The most charming attribute of friend
ship is the right of candor.7

THE WILD HORSES OF NEVADA.
They Are a Nuisance TO the Ranchers and
Are Being Shot Wherever Found.

r. L. Fulton OF Reno, for a number
of years agent of the Land Department
of the Central Pacific railroad. Is at the
California, and tells a strange story of
the mvramids of wild horses now
roaming over Nevada, and of the steps
that have been taken TO get rid of them.
There are now in Nevada more than
200, 900 head of these horses" said Mr..
Fulton, ~and they are increasing so fast
that they are getting 10 be a great
nuisance. Cattle and sheep owners are
killing them wherever they can.
The last Legislature passed Il law
permitting any one to shoot any stall
lions that were found running wild, and
the ranchers have in consequence been
killing them off wherever they could.
They do this as well to get rid of them
as to keep the wild horses from inCreas-
ing.
The trouble is they are eating off
the grass, so that sheep and cattle own
ers are having a tough time Of it IN GER
tain sections. More than this the stall
lions are in many cases leading off the
domestic horses from the ranches. So
the ranchers have it in for them and are
making it very lively. Many is the
stallion they have killed, and some of
them are very fine, too.
And what do you suppose they do
with them afterward? Why, they turn
them over to the swine to eat. They
figure that in this way each stallion is
worth about -, which is the top notch
| figure that can be realized from them.
| Horses are very cheap now the world
Int l,,l Al, - hn
! ment of America have horses been so
! cheap as they are in Nevada.
Most of the wild horses are in the
neighborhood of Eiko and Iron Point.
! \ few years ago there was turned
! loose from the Evans ranch, near Iron
| Point, fine thoroughbred stallion.
He joined the neighboring bands of
wild horses and could not be got back
again.
The result has been that the quality
of the herds was greatly improved. He
| left many colts that were much superior
| to the old stock. The various bands
have increased much since then. While
many of the horses would not be called
tirst-class others are very fine, and all
are as tough as pine knots and as fleet
as there is any use in having horses.
They are eating the grass of, and
making it hard picking in places for
cattle and sheep, and as the ranchers
can't catch the wild horses they are
shooting them down whenever they get
sight of them and can get up close
enough. The latter is not always an
easy task. In fact it usually is a most
difficult thing to do.
They use long-range rifles, however
and ride fleet domestic horses, and in
this way pick off great many. Every
rancher or cattle owner in Nevada
when he sees wild stallion and has a
weapon with him turns loose at it, 1t
is the particular aim and mission OF
every cowboy to thin them off, and
oftentimes he is not so very particular
just what kind of wild horse it is

The next that entered met the fate
of the first in a similar manner, but

vital point and wounded the savage
in the head With howl Of fright

a CHASTITY cut near the left temple and

gratitude and fear, Mrs. Peters stood
leaning against the door for support,
| listening to the means of the dying
savages outside, which gradually
grew weaker and feebler, till all be
came still, and the silence of death
once more reigned over the horrible
scene Then she started, as one aWak-
ening from a horrible dream, and hur
ried to her trembling children, which
| she caught in her arms. Nerved by
desperation, and with a strength that
was almost superhuman, she passed
over the dead bodies Of the Indians

and fled like a startled deer, with her
| children in her arms, to her nearest
neighbours house, where she swOoned
and fell across the threshold as soon
as she felt that her darlings were per
fectly safe.
1t subsequently appeared that q
considerable party CT Indians had di-
yided and gone into different sections
Of the country; and in some cases
whole families were murdered and
houses burned; but the bravery and
success Of Mrs Peters probably saved
some of the unprotected settlers in hei
vicinity, and she received the due
need Of praise for her heroic deeds
which have scarcely had parallel il
history.
