Texas, was quite as famous at the bar
as in politics. One of his most notable
cases was the defehsel Of al man named
Bomar, who was accused of murder.
Mr. Throekn1prton soon discovered that
the evidence against his client was toe
strong to be overcome by. any plea ex-
2cept that Of self-defense, but almost
any other lawyer would have been non
apii1ssed by The discovery that the man
whom Bomar killed was in his shirt

Judgment, he was armed or not. The

~THe STATEMENT has been recently made
that twelve hundred sailors deserted
from the -havg last year, This is~the
proportion of one desertion for every
seven enlisted men. The explanation is
that we cannot keep men in the service
without some encouragement; that the
men realize there is nc. future for them:
that they get discouraged and desert in
order to enter some other vocation. It
is claimed by those who have given the
matter. some thought that if the men
knew that a continued and honorable
service would ultimately lead to some
post of spreferment in the navy, they
would renain.. These. theorists seem to
take no account of the fact that deser-
tions from merchant-ships are and al
ways have been quite as common as
those from the navy. The fact is, Jack

Broke Up the Trade.

Two we'll known farmers residing
three miles west of town had a horse
trade all fixed up three weeks ago
which was broken up in a singular
manner. : One was to give $50 boot in
the trade The one who was to get the
boot let the trade stand a few weeks,
thinking it was all right anyway and
that the other fellow would grow more
anxious every week as his horse had
the heaYes, and besides he wanted to
see if they were getting worse.
! He went around last Monday to close
the trade, but the other fellow had
changed his mind and wouldn't listen
to him. s~@> r3 ,S a1
What's the matter?. You agreed to
it," he eXpostulated. .....
"That was a month ago, | wouldn't
trade even now"
4 "Why not 2"
Z: WE'LL you see nay horse~hasn't~ got
the heaves now"
sIEhehzthe other began to back away
thinking thats-his neighbor had gone
crazy and might have violent symp-
toms
But lie. explained that he had tried
a couple Of packages Of DR.. Weare's
Sure Cure for HeaVes which had con-
quered the disease and the horse was
doing full work and was as good an
animal as he wanted. Then the fellow
who did not get the boot led his horse
home, rumina ting OH the mutability of
things worldly, and the8wonderful adj
vance of science.

Barrett and Bell.
As announced in3the NEWS Friday
evening one w. G.. Barrett, of Wauke-
gan, telegraphed to York, Neb., to- get
an affidavit to the fact that there is
such a person as Thomas M. Bell. A
reply has been received which says that
there used to be man by that name
living in York. He may be in Denver
now. as. Mr. Cowell insists; and heemay
show up when wanted as theT hint is
thrown out that he will. -
News Man Calls Again I'D
The NEWS man made another call
on Mr.. COWell again this morning. He
was seated again in the sheriff's office
and was engaged in a conversation
with his stepmother. Mrs. A. CoWell.
When he had finished he turned to the
NEWS man and said that inasmuch as
the NEWS had been to all the trouble
to look up all his past record, he hoped
it would say to the public that he had
always borne himself like a gentleman
since his residence here. This paper
willingly makes that. statement as it
would any other that would throw the
least favorable light on Mr.. Cowell's
transactions. So far as known Mr.
Cowell has always appeared a gentle
man in this city.
To be sure" he added, " have al
ways kept my business to myself. It
is not public property and | wish you
would make these statements for me in
justice to me. Then in relation to Mr..
