vas gained by watching them from the
window of her home from the time Of
their arrival until their departure.
There are only few of the witnesses,
the more important ones. And yet it is
sons who will give testimony at the
trial who are being kept in the back
ground and whose names are not known
by any one except the district attorney
Of Queens county. The precaution that
is taken to guard the identity of these
persons from becoming public is great
er than has ever been known in the
history Of any case. What their evidence
will be is a mystery.
In the Queens County jail, Mrs. Mack
and Thorn are spending the time in vast
ly different fashion. Thorn, in one of the
underground cells, seems to be fairly
light-hearted and does not mind at all,
as far as appearances indicate, the
dreadful fate that apparently awaits
him. In one of the upper tiers of cells,
Mrs. Mack sits all day long, scarcely
speaking. Is it the hand of fate that has
directed that she shall be placed in that
particular cell? For every time she
glances from the window, through the
bars that guard it she must look
straight upon the house in which the
life of Guldensuppe came to an enc
through her planning.
If Mrs. Mack has any fear of the elec-
tric chair, she well conceals ii. She
has not shown trace of emotion since
her incarceration. She is as calm and
self-possessed as Roman matron the
greatest possible contrast to the volub,e
Thorn, who is a source of great amuse-
ment TO his fellow prisoners.

'liest of the cowboys. The whisky sold
wasn't Of the midlest brand, and, con-
sequently tribulation grew within the
community, and the Justices court was
always open. Burnett did a rushing
business. At the end of three months he
duly reported, as by law required to the
county supervisors, sending in his bill
for the amount due him from the county.
The county fathers cut the bill Down one-
half. Burnett swore vigorously when
he got the returns, but held no further
communications with the county seat.
Another three mor,ths elapsing the
county treasurer wrote Burnett to furn-
ish his quarterly statement The reply
came promptly: The blazes with you;
this court after this will be self-sustain
ing"
And so 1t was, in great shape. Every
time cowboy woul6 get exhilarated
and shoot up the town, the judge would
fine him 500 and would pocket what re-
manned after paying his constables for
the arrest.
One day old man Schwartz got excited
and killed "a man. After the justice as
ex-officio coroner, had finished the
inquest, he haG Schwartz hauled before
the bar, found him guilty of the crime and
fined him $1,000. Schwartz wanted to ap-
peal the case, but Burnett would issue
no papers on appeal. SO the defendant
sent up to Tombstone, for Attorney
Mark Smith, now delegate to congress
from Arizona. Smith came down at
once and heard SchwartZ's tale of woe. Ii
was clear case of murder.
Pay the money, you ass" the lawyer
fairly shouted, ''and then you go and
bury yourself somewhere down in Mex
oc."
Schwartz PAID, and skipped, and the
case was never agaii1 heard of in court.
But the county never received airy of
that coirl Those who figured on the
proposition said Burnett came out $22-
900 ahead on his Office in two years.

ON THE WRONG ELECTION
A Ward Heeler Who Piled in the Votes
Few Days Too Early

1t isn't often that the ward heeler. the
man of sleek" methods. gets left. but one
of the profession in Galveston made a
most costly blunder recently. For poll
tican to get mixed on his dates is some
thing awful but this is what this political
intriguer did, to his everlasting mortifica-
ton. Two elections had been announced
to occur in Galveston. The first was the
election to vote upon proposed amendments
to the state constitution, booked for Au-
gust 8. The second was to be held on Au-
gust 23, to elect three city school trustees.
Everybody knows how apathetic the for
mer event was and how little interest was
manifested AS to the second 1t had looked
like it would be a one-sided affair, and that
there would be no opposition whatever to
the gentlemen who were staudlng for re-
election. There was no promise of pick
ngs" in either event, consequently the
ward heeler was not interested. and he did
not keep tab on them. But just about the
date of the constitutional election rumor
was sprung saying that there would be an
opposition ticket in the school election. Tne
ward heeler heard of l.. and he came down
town post haste and called al the office of
one of the aforesaid trustees, whom he had
singled out as an easy victim. He entered

an you're a winner"
Really"
"Sure!" the ward heeler confidently re-
Piled. Then he approached his intended
victim and confidentially said: "D5 boys

The town stood behind Greene in his
deed. He has beer admitted to light

ever brought to trial.
Since Burnett's death many are the
tales beir,g rakeG up about him. He was
a singular personality. Strong -willed
and violent in, temper he especially
shone in frontier camp. 1t was, there
fore, quite appropriate that he should
have been elected justice of the peace in

at that time milled.

wine was used in the preparation of the
dishes. Neither bacon, nor milk, nor
cream, nor butter was employed iu any
form in the concoction of sauces. Only
frozen. ices were permitted. With all
these precautions there was one source
of defilement that could not be safe
guarded. The London water, as is wei.
known, is not unmixed with certain
crustacean denominations. 1t is not
kosher by any means. and the water

late, and puts us all out; and I wish you
wouldn't. OF course. If you have business,
| or anything detans you. so that you can't
come, why that's another matter bnt If

ure that keeps you, I wish you wouldn't.
] wish you would come in, SO that we can
! have dinner on time"
| This discourse Reuben receives with the
equanimity of youth. and his appetite is
quite unimpaired by it.
| The next day Mr.. Billtops met a friend
down town and stayed talking with him
| till such an hour that when he walked into
| his dining room at home it was ten minutes
| past Z. They were all at the table; Mrs.
Billtops in her accustomed place and the
children in their places, excepting that
Reuben sat in his fathers seat carving.
When Mr.. Billtops came in the children all
bowed their heads and spoke in chorus:
| "Of course. If you have business or-any-
thing detains you so that you can't come.
| it's all right; but if you could make 1t con-
venient to come in on time we should all
like it,"
| And they all threw their heads back and
laughed And Mr.. Biltops laughed with
the rest and took Reuben's seat: while
smiling Mrs. Billtops explained that they
had waited Till o'clock, and thought he
wasn't coming.
| And then Mr.. Billtops ate dinner with a
good appetite and a cheerful sDrit. and
with a renewed purpose in his heart to
curb his own impatience. and to make
some allowance for youth.-New York Sun
