THE wORDEN CASE
Red Bluff News: 1t is safe to say
that Governor Budd will not interfere
with the hanging of s. D. Worden,

crime were the Governor to commute
Worden's sentence. He must pay a
deserved penalty to evil doers and in
sure protection to life and property.

would be used as freely and effectively

Calaveras Citizen: AS the days

On impulse l tried a big bluff. took
hold of the lapel of her waist, intending
to undo one button. l let go in fright
when l found there was no button-only
an awful complication Of hooks or some
other feminine method for keeping
things together-and [ grew red and
trembled, thinking what might have
happened had l, by bad luck, made any
thing come undone. If Miss Cullen had
been noticing me, she would have seen
a terribly scared man.
But she wasn't, luckily, for the mo-
ment my hand touched her, and before
she could realize that l snatched it
away, she collapsed ON the rock and
burst into tears. "Oh, Obi" she sobbed.
81 begged papa not to, but he insisted
they were safest with me. I'll give them
toyou if you II only go away and not -
Her tears made her inarticulate, and,
without waiting for more, ran into
the hut, feeling as near like a murderer
as Euiltless man could.
Lord Rallies was swearing over his
trousers Iv this time and was Offering
the Gov 10y and Hance money to recover
them. When they told him this was i'm
possible, he tried to get them to sell or
hire pair, but they didn't like the idea
of riding into camp minus those essen
tials any better than he did. While |
waited they settled the difficulty by
strapping blanket round him, and, by
splitting it up the middle and using
plenty CT cord, they rugged him out aft
er fashion, but l think if he could
have seen himself he would have waited
till it was dark enough to creep into
camp unnCticod.
Before long Miss Cullen called, and
when l went to her she handed me-
without a word, three letters. AS she
did SO she crimsOned violently and look
ed down in her modification. [ was so
sorry for her that, though a moment be-
fore l had been judging her harshly, I
now couldn't help saying:
"Our positions have been so difficult
Miss Cullen, that don think we either

Lord Rallies coming last.
AS soon as we were started [ took a
look at the three letters. They were all
addressed to Theodore E. Camp, Esq,
Ash Forks. A. r., one of the directors
Of the K ;,-ld A. and also Of the Great

gan to clear up to me- When the trail
broadened enough to permit it, pushed

"And what is more" said, with a
