Two DescriptiOns.

A Florida editor, describing a
tragedy in that state, says:
Like an assassin in the dark, with
stealthy, silent tread, tiptoeing, he
approached the bedside where beau
ty slept in sweet innocence. Posing
himself above the silent, peaceful
form, he grinned in devilish glee;
then, closing his eyes and gritting
his teeth, the keen bladed knife was
thrust into the warm, kind breast.
Not word was uttered. He went
as he had come-silently, stealthily.
The deed was done"
Compare the above agony with
the brief, breezy description of a
Georgia editor, writing on similar
subject.
Like snake he crope through
the window, set his foot on the floor,
stood over the bed where Uncle Bill
ly was allyn, reached for his pants
and took out $16-all the money
Uncle Billy had in the world-then
cropped back to the window, swung
himself out and slid right into the
arms of the high sheriff Of the coun-
ty. Atlanta Constitution.

A we'll known American newspa-
per proprietor had a dispute with
one Of the Croupiers at the roulette
table at Monte Carlo recently, and,
being a choleric gentleman and one
who cannot bear contradiction, lost
his temper and his head, attacked the
said croupier and knocked him down.
He was Immediately seized by Off
Gals, rather roughly handled, hus-
tied about and expelled from the
rooms; furthermore, his card of adj
mission was withdrawn, and he was
informed that he would not be again
allowed to enter the Casino. He re-
tired to his hotel and indited short
note to the management, which was
the very opposite of an apology, in
forming them that unless his card
was returned, with an apology,
within IL hours he would, to use his
own expression, dynamite their
Casino. Such is the respect which
the Casino authorities have for the
press that the proprietor's card, to-
gether with an ample apology, was
returned before 10 o'clock the fol-
lowing morning. New York Post.

the woolgrowers of the Sweet Grass
country who owns a large number OF
sheep lost a band of 200 head. He
searched the country thoroughly, as he
thought. but WAS unable to find any
trace of them. Finally he employed
Louis Cobell. an old-time plainsman, TO
continue the hunt. The latter undertook
the job. and. starting from the point
where the sheep were last seen, he
worked patiently and skillfully until
a few days ago, when he had traced
them 10 the Pondera coulee on the
Marias. There he found them huddled
together with a band Of coyotes sing
ing about them. The latter had al
ready killed a dozen, but Cobell vas able
to fetch the sheep that were left back
to the home ranch in safety. As as mat
ter of plains lore MIR. Cobell's work is
one of the most skillful which has been
performed i'm late years.
