Wild Horses.

Wild horses are getting to be quite

They are very troublesome. as they
lead away the horses belonging to the
COW men and Srlngers. and when II do
mesticated horse once gets with wild

times it takes several days. to catch
him. The LATEST old crowbait alive. or

seems to crop out in him. and. although
formerly he may have allowed himself
to be caught anywhere, lie will not then
permit Il man to get within half II mile
of him. About the only way to re-
cover IL horse of this kind is to run the
entire bunch down and corral them. or
to rope the ones wanted. Nearly all

there is no object in catching mus
tangs, and this once valuable represer-

classed in the same category as the
coyote and other "varmints."

Burn it," said in whisper.
He looked at meat the letter-hcsi
tated, then walked over to the fire and
threw it in. The flames caught it: for Il
moment it writhed and quivered like u
sentient thing. then turned into dull gray
ashes. Once more he came towards me.
''lt was for your sake" he said. low.
and stern. and cold again. 'lt may spare
You one pang more. But it's destruction
makes no difference i'll my belief"
He moved away again.. This time I
made no effort to stay him. My eyes
followed him mechanically. He opened
the door, closed it; the room was empty
once more.
"He is very tall.' said to myself in a
strange sort of whisper.
1t was such foolish remark-sucl an
altogether inappropriate remark after
such scene, that l was less startled by
it than by the weak little laugh that left
my lips.
You must not laugh" said again.

veins as l heard it; but it was so madly

peating it again and again, and yet
again.
Then suddenly something in my brain
seemed to snap, and all the space around
grew peopled with strange forms. and
all the air seemed full of voices that
shrieked and walled in tiendisl echo of
my OWN: and. fighting wildly. desperately
with the forms. and deafened by the
voices. lost myself i'll the chaos of Il wild

Arisen In Shawnee.

An important case involving the val.
idity OF the new quarantine law was
up in the probate court OF this county
Wednesday epd compounded without
testing the law. Several parties had
been gathering up herd OF cattle in
this county recently, and last week
$50 head we're seized 10y the sheriff,
charged with violating the law. Bur
ton Reed, r. a. Teeters, and man
named Anderson were arrested and
their cattle held by the sheriff. The
defendants sought to recover their cat
tie by replevin, to which Sheriff Dick
erson offered forcible and unlawful re.
sstance. On trial Teeters was ac.
Quilted, Anderson dismissed by request
OF the county attorney, and Reed fined
siOO and costs, but the court having
doubt Of the validity OF the law, re-
miited the penalty.
The evidence showed that some OF
the cattle in question had but recently
been brought from the Indian terri
tory by the parties who sold them tC
the defendants in this case, and
though they had not crossed the line
with them they were in violation Of
the law IN having such cattle in theil
possession. There was considerab'
feeling aroused over the matter anc
the cost to the defendants was pretty
heavy, as the case and keeping Of The
cattle during detention cost 500.
