Daring
Thrilling Incidenf In The
Brief Career Of Billy
THE Kid.
AotO He EScaped From StDo
Officers While Handcuffed
and Both His
Guards Killed.

"One peculiarity of the notorious out
law, Billy the Kid said Mr.. |. NJ.
Bond. secretary to Delegate Rodey of
New Mexico. recently. was that he
seemed to be and in fact. was the most
abandoned. unregcnerate, thoroughly
criminal wretch that ever lived. In the
case of the James boys they had the
civil war as sort of buffer for their
misdeeds. and other outlaws have in
like manner possessed good points and
had some justification for their crimes
but with Billy the case was different
He was borl bad and remained bad ali
his life. His people were Irish and
came from New York to Silver City.
He was finally captured by Sheriff
Garrett and tried in the court at Lin
coin, where rs the clerk l noticed an
other striking example of the Ishmael-
ttish character of this peculiar man.
He was being tried for the murder of
nearly twenty men, and usually. no
matter how bad man may be. his
mother will stick to him to the last Il
fact that has been proved in hundreds
of criminal trials. where the mothers of
murderers and outlaws were usually on
hand trying hard to save the lives of
their sons. At the time of this trial
Billy's mother was living in Silver
City. less than a days journey from
Lincoln. with stagecoach making
daily trips between the two points, but
not once during that long drawn out
trial did she put in an appearance.
..He was boyish looking fellow.
with light hair and blue eyes. and took
no more interest in the trial than ]
would in hand organ and monkey.
When sentenced to be hung he was
turned over to two officers, Ollinger
and Price. who for the few days dur
ing which certain preliminaries had to
be arranged before the execution could
take place kept him guarded day and
night in room over the courthouse. I
warned the officers to be careful at the
time, but they laughed at my advice.
At mealtimes they would take turn
about guarding the Kid.
Cañon City record., 1904-01-07

by these statistics is that ascents to
high points. made both with and with
out guides, slowly but surely become
more and more frequent during the
decade in question.
Accidents which mar the sport Of
mountain climbing are attributed to
various causes, one OF the commonest
Of which is neglect to employ the serv-
ices of trustworthy guide or the de-
sire to make the ascent unaccompanied
by any one: the desire to ascend a
mountain or to some particular point
which few, If any, people have hitherto
succeeded in scaling: the traversing OF
paths unknown to the climber. and the
attempted making OF ascents in the
early spring or late autumn or winter.
Then also there are foolhnrdy adven-
turousness, vanity. the spirit of emula-
ton, carelessness. want of experience
and even absent mIndcdness. Each
of these shortcomings has Its victims.
An English tourist. writing of ca
tastrophe which befell a party OF
mountain climbers OF which he was
one, gives n picturesque description of
one OF the greatest dangers which CON
front Alpine mountaineers. The Eng
lishmen figuring In the accident were
named Brown and Garden and their
guides were named Knubel and I'm
boden. The writer says:
Cañon City record., 1904-01-07

zone day Ollinger left the room and
crossed the street to a restaurant,
while Price remained playing cards
with Billy. who was handcuffed and
shackled. As they finished the game
Price remarked that 1t was too late to
begin another and that Ollinger would
be back In a few minutes. As he said
this he rose and turned. with his back
to the Kid. TO place his chair against
the wall. when the latter. handcuffed
as he was. saw a revolver sticking out
of Prices pocket and. jerking 1t out.
shot him dead. Then he hobbled over
to room where he knew there stood
loaded shotgun. secured 1t and hob
bled out to the head of the stairs Just
as Ollinger. thinking Price had killed
Billy. started up three steps at jump
only to be shot dead by Billy.
''The latter then slid down the ban

THE AVALANCHE SWEET DOWN UPON THR
PARTY.
were not disposed to stake their lives
peak stretching loftily above the snow
line. This was the old time opinion Of
mountain climbing.
Out of this vast increase in the num-
Der of Alpine mountain climbers has
grown large number of accidents. and
most of them can be attributed directly
to the carelessness with which tourists
have come to regard perilous mountain
eering. Up to n short time ago au-
thentic statistics bearing upon the
number of accidents and the results
were hard, next to impossible, to OBJ
tain, for the reason that they were ex-
aggerated in some quarters and dimin.
ished in others. But Swiss doctor
who is a member of the Alpine club
has taken this matter in hand and pre-
sents some interesting facts on the gen
eral subject of mountain climbing and
Its effects. His report covers the ten
years between 1890 and 1901 and en-
bodies exceedingly interesting figures
Particularly worthy of notice are the
figures which give the nationality Of
those who lost their lives. In all they
numbered 305. of whom 21S were tour
lists, 10 guides and IA porters. The ma
jority. 100 In fact, were Germans, in
cluding Austrians; As were Swiss, %
Italians. IS English or Americans, Is
French and the remainder of different
nationalities. 1t is surprising that SO
few were French, but then Alpine
climbing is scarcely the sort of sport or
recreation likely to commend itself to
the Frenchman, and as for the small
number of English and Americans
who form such large proportion Of
the visitors Mt the Alpine resorts and
are such regular climbers, this may be
explained by the fact that. taking them
as whole. they are careful though
courageous in what they do, invariably
engage good guide II they have any
doubt of their own knowledge of the
way and, further. make their visits at
the time of the year most favorable for
mountaineering.
Another point of interest made clear

compelled n day laborer working there
in to saddle a horse left by some cow
boy and also to help him into the sad
die. Being an excellent horseman. he
rode sideways, handcuffed and shac-
kled and with the gun in his hands, at
dead gallop out of the town before
the people could recover their surprise.
Four miles out he came upon a black
smith. whom he compelled to remove
the shackles from his ankles; but fear.
ing pursuit. he did not wait to have
those from his wrists removed.
"One would think that II Billy's
mother cared nothing for him he
might at least have had sweetheart
somewhere to sympathize with him in
his misfortunes. He had one. 1t is
true. Mexican girl. but she despised
him and rejoiced when Sheriff Garrett
killed him while on one of his unwel-
come visits"

FROM CHILD
TO WOMAN

Edgar Birnie was forty. Myra Leigh
was seventeen. Edgar was as steady
as a rock, Myra was as unsteady as
the sands of the sea. But love makes
US all unsteady, and Birnic instead Of
selecting some practical woman near
his own age for wife must needs get
1t into his head that be wanted Myra.
This was unfortunate, for Myra met n
sailor scarcely older than herself and
made as stupid a choice as Birnle. Ben
Lorton was fit for nothing except to
pull ropes when ut sea and carouse
when ashore. But there was some
thing in his swngger that broke
through the thin casing surrounding
Myra's heart. and she was in terror
lest some other girl should get him.
Old Abel Leigh, her father, was OF
different mind. He knew Birnles
worth and did not propose II he could
help It that his daughter should refuse
a good man and one who was able to
make her comfortable to tie herself to
one with no better ambition than 10 be
foremost in ''shore sprees." The result
was that Birnie led Myra to the altar
with all the accomplishments of bride
except her heart. which not even mar
riage could take away from the worth.
less sailor. Blrnie since the girl CON
sented to become his wife. not only
supposed she did 30 willingly. but fan
cied she loved him, though how he
could have found favor in her sight
was mystery to him.
