four Of his associates were killed and
condemned TO death. They were al.
ready on their knees ready to pay the
penalty Of their bloody deeds by sub.
hitting to the awful fate Of deeapita.

Judge, asking that his four companions
might be pardoned on certain conditions.
"If," asked the bandit chief, ri am be.
headed, get up and walk to the first OF
my comrades. will you pardon himi"
The Judge thought that he was pretty
safe In complying with the request.
"rhen," said Sehenburg, "If walk to
tho second, the third and the fourth,
will you pardon them also" The Judge
replied that u such miraculous feat
could be performed he would obtain
pardon Tor ,he other three also. The
chief was now satisfied, aud bending
his head. he received the fatal blow.
Instantly the head rolled down In the
sand, but 10 the surprise aud horror Of
