instead Of taking up their residences In
the comfortable houses they had been
presented with, the Tziganes turned
the houses into stables for their horses

they boiled It. But the emperor was
not discouraged. He abolished the TIL

away with the very name Of TEigane,

boy moved to pity every soul familiar
with the circumstances which orougn'
him 50 near death. Under the laws
Of his tribe he was condemned to die
for c crime which he always claimed
that he never committed. In accord
ance with the custom Of many Of the
Wild tribes Of the plains. after he had
been pronounced guilty and the day
FOR his execution had been hxed, he
was permitted to return to his people
without guard or any sort Of bond for
his return. Several weeks were grant
ed him In which to arrange his earth
ly Affairs and prepare for death This
Spartan custom which prevails ali ov-
er the Indian territory excites the
wonder and admiration OF every one
familiar with the laws and conduct
OF these strange people. The death
penalty Is enforced very frequently in
the territory. and the condemned man
Is always allowed to go free several
days, and in no instance has one Of
these unfortunates taken advantage Of
this opportunity to make his escape.
To-Nah-Mah-He was one Of the hand
soonest young Indians of his tribe, and
there were many dark-eyed daughters
Of the plains who hoped that some day
they would be chosen to burnish his
arms and keep the fire burning In front
Of his vigwam. Among these many
admirers were two beautiful maidens,
each the daughter Of a chief, who had
both evidently found favor In the eyes
OF Panther Tanner. One Of these was
Minie-Loa-Breath Of spring-and the
other La-Na-Fa-Flower of the Vale.
No one had dared to say as to which
Of these had sunken the glanees Of her
flashing eyes the deepest into the heart
OF the handsome young warrior. There
was nothing in the laws or customs Of
the tribe to have prevented the young
Comanche from taking both OF the
young girls to his wigwam, and II |
seems that he had thought Of pursuing |
this course, but each Of the rivals in |
sisted that she loved him too well to |
share his heart with another. They
hated each other with more than the |
deadly bitterness frequently manifest
ed by women in a similar position.
Panther Tanner was greatly perplexed.
He honestly declared that he was ready
to take either or both to his bosom,
and curiously enough he requested
them to settle 1t between themselves.
One OF them did settle It much sooner
than he expected, and in a way that
startled Panther Tanner and made the
blood run cold in his veins. Mimic
Lora walked to the door Of his wig
VAN one fine spring morning with a
Knife dripping with gore In her hand,
and coolly threw the bleeding heart
II the beautiful Flower in the Vale at
lis feet. The astounded To-Nah-Mah-
BE sprang to his feet and urged her

'scape certain death. He toolishly a.

a practice Of reading rubbish, those
works remain unlocked at, while the
low novel Is sought with keen anxiety,

chickens raised by Uncle Sam Hanks,
who resides near Macon. Mo. The great
desire for "Uncle" Sans fowls comes
from the fact that in the craws Of sew
