If we were engaged in war in

900 people had been killed outright
and nearly $4,000 wounded, it would
equal the casualties Of any year of
the civil war on either side, and would
not only be the principal topic Of in

mourning; and there would be, intense
anxiety and unremitting effort to bring
it to an end. When, however, we are
officially informed that between June

CHAPTER II.

John Ogden turned his head: tn,
muzzle OF a Winchester carbine was
within an inch of his neck, and th(
Sheriffs cruel eyes were behind it.
Ogden felt numb and nerveless. In {
flash he saw the Significance of the
words; he was as a bird within strik

Ogden turned to the door, meeting
the eager faces of a crowd of people
Who had heard the shot. The sheriff
beckoned to two men.

by him."

ing J6bn Ogden had been a free man
~ noon he was on trial for his life.
Inc courthouse was the largest room
IN the hotel, a convenient spot, for the
Judge was the hotel proprietor. Johns
trlal lasted exactly two hours. Sheriff
Lassiter, "our worthy officer of law"
as Judge Sanderbach explained to the
eastern visitors assembled to enjoy the
ceremony, gave his evidence with a
dignity and self-restraint that was
mach admired. He stated briefly, how
when passing the post-office, he had
heard the sounds of a struggle inside
followed by revolver shot, and enter
Ing had discovered the deceased in a
dying condition, the prisoner standing
over him, pistol In hand.

spouse to bland and courteous ques-
ton from the judge, "a foul lie from
beginning to end"
DO you say so, now?" echoed the.
Sheriff's attorney, the only lawyer in
town. "That, I reckon, will be most
interesting news to the jury. Please tell
us why?"
The cowboy gave his account Of the
incident, and then the lawyer passed

quietly. "We'll share the expense, meb.
be. I'll have a letter to write, which
you must take to Jonathan Hame,
who's Ogden's boss, and told me once
Ogden would beat the band for honesty
and grit. Vamos, now"
1t was ten miles to Hame's ranch,
but the Mexicans caught the cattleman
just as he was off for a holiday in the
Eastern States. By shutdown he was in
Clincher's store. -
That evening the Clhlcher family
supped late. They entertained a dozen
guests, and 1t was pleasant, sociable
supper, for all the men were neighbors
and friends. At the head of the table
sat Clineher, the host, quiet and serene;
On his right, Jonathan Hame, the larg-
est owner of cattle in the country, a
trifle absent In manner, but as undis-
turbed as his friend; opposite was a
slim, hard-featured man, Collett, the
sheep king; and on his right Dan
Bacon, most successful breeder of
horses in New Mexico, and so the list
went on. After the supper, Clincher
rose quietly from his chair, and locked
the door. Friends" he said, returning
to the table, 1--WE must talk business
now"
All this time Ogden was locked in
the Casa awaiting his fate. With his
coat rolled up for a pillow, he lay on
his back gazing up through the graf
ing at the sky. Hope was all gone
nothing left but dreary, bitter des-
pair. Thus thrown back upon his
thoughts, his mind flew away from his
present surroundings, over land and
sea, five thousand miles, back to the
smoky Lancashire town where he was
born, and where all he loved In the
world were now living. His father,
his brothers, his mother-here he
choked, and hot tears streamed down
his cheeks unchecked. She had been.
a very foolish mother John had been
her first-born, and she had petted him..
spoilt him, cuddled him. He had re-
paid her as willful young daredevil

The Sheriff was introduced into the
case in manner which completely
ruined any chance Of acquittal he
might otherwise have had. Ultimately
a verdict of "Guilty of murder" was
given by the jury and sentence of death
by hanging solemnly passed by the
judge, the execution to take place at
sunrise the next morning. The prisoner
was then marched back to his cell--an
empty shanty--the court adjourned for

the trial went quietly home. Only one
