The monarch Of the Packsaddle
mountains has been slain and the
ranchers of the valleys are rejoicing
and loud in their praises Of the brave
young woman who put an end 70 the
career Of the beast.
The old monarch was a monster
jaguar, one Of the largest and fiercest
Of the species that was ever killed In
Texas. He had preyed upon the herds
and hocks Of the Packsaddle ranch
ers and terrorized the people OF that
section for five years. Big rewards
were offered at different times for his
capture, and old hunters with large
packs Of trained hounds frequently
pursued him.
Emboldened by his repeated success
ful forays, he did not contine his dep
relations wholly to domestic animals
1t is said that he was responsible for
the death Of two human beings, and
that he seriously wounded no less than
five others during his career.
Superstitious mountaineers who had
many fair shots at the spotted prowl-
er were beginning to believe that he
bore a charmed life. He had been
hard hit several times. and he had
carried away more than one big steel
trap which he succeeded in shaking
and gnawing loose from his feet.
During the last few weeks the jag
uar was often seen in Laurel valley
He had become so bold that he fire.

busy with her housework when her
attention was attracted by a peculiar
series Of raps of the floor of an ada
cent room. Possessed by a feeling Of
alarm arising from the fact that her
little baby was lying in a cradle in
the room from which the noise came.
she walked hurriedly to the door.
A great savage beast. which she in
stantly recognized as the monarch Of
the Packsaddle mountains. stood with
his fore feet on the foot of the cradle
gazing into the smiling face Of the lit
tie child. His eyes were glowing like
two balls Of fire and he jerked his
head about after manner Of a
cat torturing a captured mouse.
