Imprisoned by an o.tr,ch.

A guardsman in the reserve of Off
GERS who Is better known for his swag-
ger than his brains had an unfortunate
experience in South Africa.
He was stationed about 100 miles
from Cape Town at remount depot.
One morning a farmer stopped him as
ne was taking constitutional and
warned him against crossing an inclos-
ure containing cock ostrich which
had become bad tempered. The guards
man said that no ostrich ever hatched
would turn him out of his way and
went on unmoved
As he had not returned home four
hours afterward his brother officers
were alarmed and sent out search par
ties. What was their surprise to dis
cover him lying on his back unhurt,
with cock ostrich sitting on his chest.
The bird had knocked him down each
time he had tried to rise, but could not
hurt him while he lay fiat on his back.
Yet leave his enemy he declined to do
and therefore sat quietly upon him I'M
til driven off by the rescue party.-Lon-

MISUNDERSTANDING.

Mr.. G. W. Stevens in his book, sIn

country is amazing and Supplying. be-
cause everything, is so noticeable that
you notice nothing. The common crows
are blue, the oxen have humps. 1t is a
new life in new world. In describing
the native life he gives this story Of
their Indifference to punishment:
A simple ryot the other day had said
goodby to his relatives and was pinion-
ed, when suddenly he asked to speak
again to his brother
'Recollect." he said, Its 20 kawa
surs of barley that man owes me, not

he turned and was hanged without
moving muscle.

hanged, When the rope broke. The
warder bade him go up on to the scat
fold again, but he objected.

A Notseless Ring Game.

s Ehes small rubber rings thatsareS used
In every household with which to seal
preserve Jars may be made the means
of much amusement when q lively
game is desired for the amusement Of
friends. First obtain smooth head Of
flour or sugar barrel and see that the
pieces are all fastened together, form
ing circular board. or ,Sny smooth
board about a square foot IN size will
serve the purpose.
Procure ten coat hooks of medium
size and secure them into the board
and mark above each hook it's number,
ranging from No. ! to No. 10. A hole
may be made in the upper end of the
board or a screw eye inserted by which
to hang it upon nail in the wall.
No. 10 is sort of "bullseye," and
each player. having three of the rubber
rings. takes turns in throwing them
from a position about ten feet away,
endeavoring to "hook" as many on the
board as possible. A score is kept of
the points gained by each player, the
one first getting 100 points being the
winner. However, exactly 100 points
must be made. For instance, if play
er has 80 he has to work for hook No.
L. as any other hook would carry him
over the mark. This difficulty adds to
the interest of the game.
An advantage of the game is that no
noise is made nor damage done by the
rings, and it may be improyised by any
boy or girl.-New York Sun.

The county Jail in this city has never
contained a prisoner charged with
more atrocious crime. stealthily execut-
ed, than that laid at the door OF the
cunning tend who was brought from
Bridger by Sheriff Potter and company
of guards at II o'clock Tuesday night.
Taken almost red handed, with the blood
and brains Of his unfortunate victim
cinging to his clothes, Andrew Bllant
the Austrian coal miner who is sl's-
pected Of the Thanksgiving night muir
der at Bridger finds himself confronted
with chain Of circumstantial evidence
from which there is hardly a possibility
Of his escape. That he fully realizes
the enormity Of his crime and the fact
that net is being woven around hlm rs
apparent in the attempt which ne made
to outwit the officers Of the law and
place himself beyond the pale Of the
gallows. AS it is, he is now confined II
a strong steel cell, having been bound
over to the district court on the charge
Of murder in the first degree.
The crime was a particularly cold
| blooded and atrocious one, having been
deliberately planned and stealthily exc
cuted. From the evidence given at the
coroners inquest and the preliminary
examination, both OF which We're held
at Bridger, it appears that the Austrian
II e.. 1,.l ~. #
better known as Hobo Dave, the Cook,
had had trouble in a Bridger saloon
some six weeks ago, when Davidson
took the part OF man who was abol1
to be stabbed by the Austrian, and wh'
was at that time threatened with deatE
because of his interference.
On the night Of the murder both mel
were in Shupal's saloon, the one will
murder in his heart and blood in hi
eye, and the other seemingly obliviou
to his impending doom. About $50
: o'clock the Austrian left the place TO
the purpose Of waylaying the cool
when he should come along on his wa
home. Though no human eye perceive'
him, the conditions and circumstance
surrounding the affair show that th
Austrian went to Paddy Doran's houst
a short distance from the saloon, an
there secured from the coal pile th
instrument with which he beat out til
brains of his unsuspecting victim. IL
!. weapon was a six-pound, double pointe
coal hammer. Secreting himself in a
outhouse, close to the road along whic
the cook usually travelled in going to b
boarding house at the mines, a mile $
so distant from the town, the murder'

shoes. Knowing that the fugitive, when
he escaped from the saloon, wore tan
shoes, he at once made up his mind that
the fellow was the man required. The
superintendent sent out a messenger to
give the news and himself remained near
the opening to watch the Austrian.
About this time Sheriff Potter came
in from his fruitless chase and was in
formed that his escaped prisoner had
been located lii the mine. With others
he proceeded down the slope and was
conducted to the spot whore the fellow
was Ill hiding. After crawling and crop
ing their way into the room up to the
face without seeing any signs Of tie
fellow the sheriff and his deputies
threw their lights about and IN one
corner Of the place, almost entirely coy
cred up with slack and slate and coal
they found the Austrian. Tie was
brought forth from his place Of conceal
ment without Offering the least resist
ance, and ii waS discovered that ne had
secured a file from a tool box in the
mine and had made good use Of it while
| in hiding. He had freed his hands by
filing in two one Of the cuffs. The chain
connecting the irons on his legs were
also severed, but as there were no file
marks ON any Of the links it is supposed
that he was rendered assistance in sever
ING the chain. II was ascertained later
that he had secured a loaf Of bread from
some place, part Of which he had eaten,
the remainder being found in his place
of concealment. The supposition il that
on going to the mine he stopped at the
house OF one Of his two married daugh-
ters, which is along the route which no
Travelled, and there secured the loaf of
bread and also assistance in severing the
chain, one link of which was missing and
could not be found.
On his way up from the mine the pris-
oncr remarked that "Hobo Dave" had
slapped him in the face and blackened
his eye in the previous saloon fight, but
denied in broken English any knowledge
of the crime charged against him, say
ing again and again II no do that; no
kill Dave" Aftcrward he implorcd the
. sheriff to shoot him and when being
, lodged in jail in this city stated that he
would rather die than live. He told the
sheriff night before last that he was bet
ter off dead than in jail and said that
, the rope had no terrors for him.
I Prior to being brought to Red Lodge
the accused was given preliminary
i hearing before Justice Stone at Bridger,

son Of Attorney G. l.. Merrill. The evl-
y dence adduced did not differ materially

bucket along. and, being too small to
handle the pump, she usually begs
some passer-by to pump for her. They
always accede. The other day she had
