Mr. Notwithstanding credit to
which Utah is entitled in the late war
with Spain is that she did her whole
duty. and did it promptly and cheer
fully. When the original call was
made, it was the disposition of many
of the states TO put into the field the
largest possible number of men and
organizations that would be accepted.
Utah took no part in adding to the
embarrassments and perplexities of the
war department, but contented herself
with doing well and quickly exactly
what she was asked She neither sug-
gested, complained nor talked back. In
this respect Utah may be compared to
the dutiful soldiers whom Tenny SO

sUNDRY PROCEEDINGS.

By a vote Of 81 to IS, house concur
rent resolution No. 4, by Robinson, was
passed, under suspension of the rules.
The resolution authorizes the governor
to appoint a special messenger during
the legislative session, and to fix his
compensation. Representative Shop
ard expressed the belief that the gov
errors contingent fund is applicable
to such an expenditure, but Mr.. Rob-
inson replied that the executive did
not so understand the matter. Mr.
Jackson gave notice OF moving for re-
consideration.
On recommendation of the judiciary
committee, house bills Nos. ,, and {,
relating to the code of civil procedure;
were placed on file for third reading
and passage.
Representative n. ]. Harris of We
Der again proposed to amend rule IS
so as to provide for the printing of 200
copies of every bill or other measure
after first reading, and before refer
ence to committees. Mr.. Harris en-
tered an earnest protest against the
rule, which, he asserted, permits a
committee to report adversely on a
bill before members have a copy before
them, and know what they are voting
upon, when a vote is being taken to
kill a measure.
Mr.. jackson said the proposed
amendment was under consideration
by the committee on rules, but further
debate on the subject was cut off by
the house taking recess at las.

INDIAN DEPREDATIONS.
Representative Redd offered house
memorial No. 2, for legislation to re-
strain depredations by the Ute and
Navajo Indians, committed in San
Juan county. The draft of the me-
4
der suspension of the rules, passed by
unanimous vote, but later Mr.. Hansen
gave notice of moving for a reconsid-
Grafton, SO as to improve the phrase
ology Of the measure.
The memorial is as follows:
ITO the Honorable. the Senate and
House of Representative of the
United States, in Congress Assem-
bIed:
Your memorialists, the governor
and the legislature of the state of
Utah, respectfully memOrialize your
honorable bodies, and represent:
That the Ute and Navajo Indians,
situate in Colorado and Arizona, re-
spectively, and having reservations
therein, pass beyond their reservations
and into the state of Utah, and COM
nit depredations upon the property of
the people in said state. Your memo
rialists further represent that adequate
efforts are not made by the government
to protect the citizens OF said state of
Utah from the incursions of said In
dams, or to control or restrain said
Indians within the reservations as
signed to them. By reason of proper
restraint not being exercised by the
governor, they pass into said state of
Utah, with their fiocks and herds, and
depasture the land, despOil people of
their property, and spread terror
amongst the inhabitants.
Your memOrialists, therefore, re-
spectfully request that the necessary
legislation be enacted by congress to
properly restrain said Indians, and that
the proper departments be empowered
and required to prevent said Indians
from passing into the state OF Utah.
And as in duty bound, your me-
morialists will ever pray"

that before II set again he and Chief
would be safe beyond the Rio Grande.

lie had drifted down to Bandera coun-
" from point far north a year before,
bringing with him all lac possessed in
the way of goods and chattels-the
black horse Chief.
Chief soon won for himself a reputa-
tion both for beauty and speed and
Trenbur received many offers to sell
Lin, one and all of which he put aside,
for the horse was dear 10 him beyond
anything on earth. Many and many
time he mad gone hungry that Chief
might be fed. and wel!-nigh barefoot
that Chief might be shod. Dire in
deed would be the necessity which
would bring about separation between
them.
For a time Trenbar worked with a
fair amount of industry at whatever he
could find TO do. He had tried pretty
much everything in the none ey-making
process, and nothing to success, for the
reason perhaps that his restlessuess and
natural idleness would not allow Of
Lis remaining long in any oGe place.

little broncho with a heavy brand on
the left flank and an execublc ten
dency toward bucking. lie came to his
senses the next day and marched back
to Cronwright with both pony and
money, demanding his horse in re-
turn. The ranchman laughed in his
face and as Trenbar broke out into
fierce maledictions against the in
justice of the thing had drawn a re-
,olyer bidding him stern;y to begone;
Trenbar went, but. he left Chiefs pur-
chase price behind him. Then and there
he resolved that come what would he
would have his horse again at any cost.
Cronwright, anticipating his purpose,
threatened him with lynchiug-the
common fate OF the horse thief.

Trenbar entered the corral at dead OF
night and took Chief out. The horse
was wiling captive. He knew lis

jim TRENBAR'S LUCK
: the strone. clear hght Of I'd Aa.

Is the strong, clear light Of the Aa-
gust morning the sheriff OF Baudera
county and his deputy rode out from
tEe timberland that sdrtod the river
bottom and drew rein Before them
lay the prairie burned brown by tAe
sun stretching away TO meet the faint
gray lines OF ;he horizon.
The sheril's face was lean and dark
with the sharpened, wntchful look Of
Il timber wolf on the trail Of its prey.
Ills eyes glanced keculy from under
meath the hand which he had raised
to shade them, as he scanned the prairie
long and attentiveiy.
The deputy shifted to an easier posi-
ton in the saddle and pushed the SOM
brero back from his heated forehead,
He was young man with heavy,
stolid cast Of features. The curling
ends OF his rcd-browu hair reached al
most to his shoulders. His long mus
cular throat rose like column from
the loose collar of his coarse wool
shirt.
The stout little broncho upon which
ne sat pulled peeyishly at the bride
and blew the foam from its nostrils,
They had Travelled far and fast since
sunrise and there was still the prospect
of long, hard gallop before them rhe
deputy felt that his strength needed re-
enforcement. This fact was the more
vigorously impressed upon him since
the means of reinforcement was at
hand. He drew a fiat, black bottle from
his hip pocket and held it up to the
light. II showed a little more than half
iuu. lie put il 10 his mouth a. onnk
with evident zest of the contguts. The
sheriff took his hand from his yes and
eyed him thirstily.
Lave some, Bll?" the deputy said,
speaking with his soft lazy drawl and
eNtending the bottle toward the sher-
ifT, who received it without comment
and drank deeply in his turn. The
deputy wiped his mouth on his wrist
and gave hitch to his cartridge belt.
"Weil, what's the next move?' he
asked, when the bottle had been re-
stored to its former security in his
pocket.
The sheriff leaned forward, resting
his elbow upon the pummel of his sad
die and rubbing his prominent, un-
shaven chin thoughtfully with the
palm of his hand. His narrow, deep
set eyes were contacted until only a
tiny cleaning line of light showed be-
tween the lids.
Our mans gone north" he said, at
length. "Struck out straight for the
Rio Grande. He's got a good horse
under him and five hours the start;
but" He Strengthened up suddenly
and thrust his feet farther into the
stirrups, were after him, and it's a

with 4 look that said plainly they
could and would.
The sheriff touched his wibd-eyed lit
tie mare with the spur. Shr plunged
forward, with the deputy's bIoncho
close upon her track. \ fine yellowish
dust lifted itself from the withered
grass stalks and weeds and hung about
them as they rode. The sun poured
it's level rays full upon the Parched
and iifcless prairie and upon the two
men galloping with grim set faces in
the pursuit OF justice.
All day long the man upon the black
horse had been steadily making for the
Mexican border. II was nearing sunset
now. The mans slight figure dropped
woarily in the saddle. His head had
sunk upon his breast and the reins lay
loosely in his relaxed fingers. The
black horse still galloped, but slowly.
Ills nose was thrust far forward and
either wide nostril gave glimpse of
the red within. Great flakes of foam
dropped from his bit or floated back
upon the wind of his motion against his
luiyering shoulders.
All day long he had galloped-gal-
loped almost without pause, under the
burning southern sun, across the
acorched earth toward the creek there,
whose sluggish shallow tide the sun
ect had Redeemed until il had looked
like trail OF blood. They had long
since left the open prairie behind them.

Trenbar brought the black horse to a
siandsti!l in the shadow of n clump of
chaparrol and slipped heavily down
from the saddle. lie was all but spen'
with hunger and weariness and nerv-
Gus tension. His face was pale and his
knees shook under him. Yet his first
thought was not for himself, but for the
animal beside him.
He removed both ddle and brid e

he led the horse by the name down to

the sand with his lips laid to the water.
It was so still there in the low west

the horses heavy breathing as he drew
the water in in long thirsty draughts
these were the only sounds, but
they smotc the air with thrilling dis
tinctness,
Once the horse flung up his head with
a start and thrust his head sharply for
ward in the attitude of listening. In
that moment Trcnbar's heart seemed 10
stand still, but he smiled when the
horse dropped his nose again upon the
water.
