EarIy Times Of rwo
e'" S.s.s s.. rye"

NAL spring, where, true to pr~e-arrange-
ment, Leiba, Perea and Faustino Gu
~tierrez appeared, and closing in from
all sides, surrounded Potter. Leiba,
without word, warning or opportunity
for defense, shot Potter, who immedi-
ately pulled his gun and shot Leiba In
the arm Then followed a general as
sault, four guns belching to a common
center, Potter and his horse that cen.
ter. His horse was shot, but he was
fighting. He killed Gutierrez horse.
He fought as only a man will fight
with no cry for mercy, useless waste
of dying energy. with but six shots
against their t~wenty-four he desperate
ly defended his few living moments
Still astride his fallen and dying mare,
in the grasp of the tremor of death,
the death film obscuring his sight,
with his body bullet riddled, he fired
his last -four shots without effect.
, "He never said a word" confessed
each of his assassins. He fight so
hard, he fight SO brave that | was sor
ry," confessed one of them.
To hide their crime they mutilated
the body of the horse, and attempted
to cremate it together with the body
of their human victim. This was but
partially successful, and the charred
remains Of Potter they buried in the
bed of a little spring brook, whence
it was disinterred by Perfecto Armijo
and brought into Albuquerque along
with his prisoners.
On the evening of January 81, 1881,
Miguel Herrera, california Joe" and
Escolasto Perea were confined in the
cid town Jail, charged with the muir
der of Charles Potter. The spectacle
of the following morning told the re-
suit of their punishment. How it was
inflicted can only be told by one who
witnessed it. Gutierrez was arrested
a few days later, and on the night of
February "a was tried, convicted and
executed at the old town all. A month
later Leiba was captured near Las We
gas, and there held upon a charge of
robbery. The Vegas people refused to
surrender him to our officers, insisting
that all witnesses against him had left
the country. This was probably true.
But had he been brought here he
might have been tried, and the cap
tain,' the last member of his own
gang. might have joined the witnesses
end r~eorganized.
Leila served a three years term
from Vegas. and was comparatively
quiet for a time. Some years later he
was one of the murderers of Lackey
and Tessier, sheep men, in the vicinity
of the Macintosh sheep ranch. These
men were murdered in their own home
in daylight and their house fired. For
this crime Leiba was arrested three
miles from San Pedro. on the Albu-
querque road, but not until after a
Winchester ball had passed through
his head. He was buried along side
the road a few feet from where he
fell. He rejoined his old followers,
and there was, undoubtedly, a hellish
reorganization. Prayers for their souls
would have been useless. unless the
Virgin Mary worked a miracle.
In this connection it may be said
that the whole expense of the annihila-
ton of the Leiba gang was borne by
Sheriff Armijo, individually, and
amounted to owe 81. 900; that he new
er received any part of the reward or
any other recompense.

Vampire superstitions.

The prevailing belief in European
countries was that vampires We're the
ghosts of suicides OF others who had
died violent deaths and We're forced by
the devil to leave their graves at night:
and feed on the blood of men and wo-
men, and any who died at the hands Of
these dreadful creatures also became
vampires. In this way beautiful wom-
en- became vampires and ,enticed young
men and. fed on their blood and flesh.
1t was believed that they had power to
assume any shape or form desired be-
tween sunset and sunrise and that. they
committed most of their awful deeds at
midnight. They We're powerless in the
daytime and were generally in q tor
pid state. Garlic and wild rOsebushes
were guards against them, and cruel.
fixes were feared by them. To prevent
suicides from becoming vampires they
were buried with a stake driven
through their hearts, and the straw
they had slept on was burned. All the
dogs and catsin the village We're locked
up, for lie a dog or cat jumped over a
corpse 1T was sure to become b home

How snrages walk.

Savages always walk with their toes
turned i'll for two reasons. In the first
place the foot naturally falls in that
position when it has never been con.
fined by boots or the ankles distorted
by high heels. In the long stride of The
savage the leg swings freely like a
pendulum round the center of gravity.
which is somewhere between it and
the other leg. In the swing the abducf.
tor muscles of the inside of the thigh
bring the sole of tie foot under tie
center of gravity, and in doing SO
slightly rotate the foot toward the in
ner line, turning the toe in. Conven-
fence is also on the side of the natural
! position of the foot in the case of the
savage, for he has to do much walking
through long grass and underground in
forests.
A,mcment's reflection will show how
very much his progress would be Inn
peded if he turned his toes QUITO catch
these obstacles instead of brushing
them aside and outward as he now
does. Lastly, the savage uses his foot
much more as a help to his hands than
we do, and it is obvious that in doing
this he must turn his toes in. .,t3

The Right way3to boil water.

ITO boil water would seem to be 81
very simple thing" writes ON one III
the Boston Cooking School Magazine,
'and yet the late Charles Delmonicoo
used to say that very few people know
how to do it. The secret isl he said,
lin putting good fresh water into a ket-
tie already quite warm, setting the wa;
ter to boiling quickly and then taking
it right off for use in tea, coffee orSoth-
er drinks before it is spoiled. To let il
steam and simmer and eyaporate until
the good water is in the atmosphere
and only the lime and iron and dregs
left in the kettle is what makes a great
many people sick, andfi is worse than
no water at ALL For water boiled like
this and favored with a few drops OF

In a Ease in which a Ratchet having
clotted blood and hair adherent to it
was produced as evidence against a
prisoner suspected of murder in a little

bed. This, with other circumstantlal
evidence, had turned public opinion
strongly against the prisoner, but when
the hair wasf examined by a micro
scopist who Glanced to be in the court
room it was found not to be human
but that of some animal. This cifcum-
stance led to, a more complete slftlng
OF the evidence, and the accused was

DISCUSSES OF NATURE.
The Quality of Defense IL Found In
~ EYnrY Animal No.. l-aEs-

Every Animal.
By a decree of nature oEe-half the
world feurishes atstlie expense OF the
other half. The sparrow cllases the
butterfly, but the hawk chases the
sparrow. For the problem of life is
tWofold. 1t is not enough merely to
eat. 1t is necessary to avoid being eat
EN-. Yet nature detests Killing for kill
lng's sake. Massacre forms no part of
her great plan. So we see that every
creature is provided with some more
or less effective quality of defense by
means of which the attacks of its nat
ural enemies are rendered less frequent
or less deadly.
Thus the antelope by means of it's
superior speed at times escapes from
the lion. The armadillo, rolled in it's
wondrous coat of mail, lies secure
among a score of hungry, gnawing
foes, While the white hare, scarcely
distinguishable from the snow on
which it crouclles, is often overlooked
by his foe, the fox. But of all creatures
none has received more ample protec-
ton than the insects. Some of them
possess stings, others bite, and a few
puff out clouds of poisonous yapor ito
stupefy or blind their pursuers. Again,
there are insects clothed in impenetTa-
BILE armor, insects covered with sharp
spines and prickles and others whose
means of defense consist in notlins;
but a likeness to the objects which sui
round them.-Royal Magazine.
