An English writer gives a good exam.
pie Of those bubbles in legal practice
that have a sort Of fascination for
certain minds. Some years ago, while
travelling on the Continent. he met the
principal lawyer for the government
Of one Of the municipalities, who told
him Of a curious legal question. 1t had
reference to a railway station ct the
boundary between two principalities.
Some one standing outside the win
dow Of the ticket Office put his hand
through and robbed the till inside. The
boundary line lay between where the
thief stood and the till, so that he was
actually in one territory, while the
crime was committed IN the other.
Here was a nice nut for the gentlemen
learned in the law to crack. Which Of
the municipalities should undertake the
prosecution of the culprit?
At it they went in good earnest, and
the arguments on either side were
long and vehement, till the whole case
was embalmed in many volumes. At
last one side yielded so far as to say:
1--WE will permit you, as an act Of
courtesy, to prosecute, while at the
same time reserving all our sovereign
rights"
At this point of the recital asked,
"And how did the prosecution eadF'
"Ahl that is quite another matter"
said my friend. "There was no prose-
cution; we were only arranging what
wo unould do when we caught the rob-
Ter; but We never caught him.

( To gain flesh, eat a hearty breakfast
and dinner and light luncheon.
Bread, butter and stewed fruit and
milk are necessary articles Of diet. Let
the bread be brown, or gluten leaf and
have the milk hot but not scalded;
take some often during the day, but
eat no solids between meals, Olive oil
on fresh green salad and cream with
baked bananas are fattenlng foods.
Before retiring take warm bath to
induce sleep, which aids in increasing
flesh. Devote ten hours to sleep, and
If possible rest for ten minutes every
afternoon.
Spend one whole day in bed each
month, sleeping as much of the day as
possible. The only true way to rest is
to lie down in a darkened room with
closed eyes and think of nothing. Even
five minutes of such rest is valuable;
the muscles Of the face relax, and one
does not get hard, set look, which
adds many years 10 the appearance.

Suitable clothes For Growing Girls.


Shirt waists are not becoming to the
average girl under fourteen. Until
that age Is reached the full round waist
Of pleated princess style is vastly more
becoming.
The sailor suit is the most univer.
sally worn and popular suit for girls
Of every age. 1t is distinctly becoming
and appropriate to young figures, and
may be made of serge, linen, duck OF
galatea.
The older girl has her sailor suit
made with a gored skirt and a belted
blouse and the younger one with a
straight full skirt and a blouse identi-
cal in style and cut to the enc worn
by her small brother.
The Killed and pleated skirt is q
pretty one, especially for girls from
twelve to fourteen years Of age. Yer
teal pleats arranged in clusters eX'
tending the length of the skirt are styl'
ish, and another pretty skirt is made
with n pointed yoke effect; the pleats
quite reaching the knees in front and
gradually growing narrower toward
the back. This arrangement gives a
pretty fulness all around the edge OF
the skirt and is stylish in effect.-Mrs

hay and a little shelled corn once n

no grass unless forced to eat It, and
he found them useful in keeping down
all kinds Of weeds and shrubs around
his lot. Mr.. Seward says further that
the prevailing opinion that fence
ten or twelve feet high is required
around an Enclosure to keep deer Is
mistake. When captured half grown
and wild they will jump high fence,
but when they are raised on the
place fence four or five feet
high is entirely sufficient. More, they

The only trouble r. has ever had
in all the years he has been raising
deer was with the old stays. In their
old age they become vicious, not only
toward people, but with each other as

old stays became so refractory that 1t

to the woods three miles north Of town,

twenty or thirty hounds put on his

n HEYENNE. WYO., April 10.-Tom
Horn, the stock detective, now in
Jail here awaiting trial on the
charge of murder I'm the first degree
for the killing of Willie Nickel Of Iron
Mountain, is suspected of having COM
United another crime equally as
heinous as the Staying Of the ranch
mans boy, but the evidence against
him in this last killing is entirely cir
cumstantial, and although the authori-
ties have been at work on the case
quietly for several years they have
been unable to find a single clue that
might fasten the guilt upon Horn or
any other person.
The startling story, which is now
made public for the first time. is told
by Mrs. Fred Bell, a widow, who re-
sides at COS East Twentieth street. in
this city, with her three children, and
whose husband is believed to have been
murdered during the month of October,
1899
Mrs. Bell lived for many years with
her husband on a farm forty miles
north of ST. Louis. in the state of Mis-
moved to Wyoming. Mr.. Bell received
$1,000 in cash and took a mortgage for
$1,000. Shortly after coming to WyO-
ming Mr. Bell was given a position on
the ranch of Ora Haley near Laramie,
and he went there to live with his fam
lily During the latter part Of 1898 and
during the summer and fan of 1893 Tom
Horn. the stock detective. visited the
Haley ranch frequently To the Bells
he said Haley gave him permission TO
bunk there whenever he wanted to.
On many of these visits Horn would
sleep during the day time and ride Off
on his horse every evening, being gone
all night Sometimes he would stay at
the Haley ranch for three and four
week$ at a stretch, then so away and
not show up again for several months.
Knew He Had the Money.
Mrs. Bell says that Horn learned
that her husband had $1,000 in the
bank at Laramie and had a mortgage
on the Missouri farm for $1,000: that
Horn was always talking ranch to her
husband and urged him to buy "a place
During one of these talks with her hus-
band. Mrs Bel says Horn told him
that he knew of a ranch in the Iron
Mountain district that he could buy
cheap for cash. He. Horn, had killed
the owner a few years before. He had
been a stock "rustler" and had been
ordered put out of the way.
Early in the fall Of 1899 Mr. Bell told
his wife that he had sold his mortgage
on the farm in Missouri to a Laramie
dealer for $4,000 giving the dealer the
interest as his commission. This mon
