She pointed to Traphagan.
The judge, IL he had been puzzled
before, was now thrown into absolute
confusion, This case Is bad un,"
he remarked, ''and I see no way outen
II but TO hang 'en both
"Why not let us two who have been
accused of the murder fight It outT"
said Arnold.
"Thats A good idea, judge one OF
the men who had seen the fracas be-

other. "Let 'em decide 1t with fists

think it's for the dedication of this

This satisfied all parties except Trap

squafely against him. Nevertheless he

Arnold saw the advantage OF pl0as-

Finally when Arnold saw that Trap

him half dozen yards and down.
This ended the battle.
Arnold, now that he was safe, was
unwilling to see his enemy branded for
a crime Of which there was such slight
proof that he was guilty. He took the

THE COWBOY.

Jack Arnold was his name. II was
supposed to be ali assumed name, for
ne wasseducated and not likely to use
his own while cowboy. It was not
known that he was a.college bred man
and an athlete, for he never told them
90. He was not graduate; he had
taken 50 much interest In foiIs and
boxing gloves that he had 10 time for
study. When he was sent away from
the university he didn't GO home; he
went west and took'the FIRST Job offered
punching cows.
He was sitting In the .AIhambra sa.
loon with glass OF whisky before
him. "A party OF men were ait the bar,
among them Traphagan, the worst man
In the territory. A little Mexican girl
came in with an empty beer bottle
and asked for d quarters worth Oh
your most" meaning the most the
barkeeper would give for that sum-
that IL, the poorest. She pushed
against Traphagan, who, looking down
and seeing greaser girl. batted her
with the palm Of bis hand and sent her
eprawling on the door.
Arnold was a fool to give way to
impulse with a man like Traphagan.
He should ahaye either shot him or lei
him alone. He gave him d blow under
the saw and sent him after the little
greaser. Traphagan was quick ia
draw, even though on the door, but
one Of the party caught his arm, and
the bullet went through the roof
Fists or nothLngi" cried the crowd
and iTraphagan, accepting the issue,
went at Ids adversary for boxing
match. He teus done UP IN two rounds,
He acknowledged his defeat and set up
round of ilsinks for the crowd, In
Gliding Arnold, insisting thai the VIC
tor should drink. Arnold accepted
keeping his eye on the man while
drinking.
One day later on Arnold was riding
after cattle. Traphagan was following
him at distance with rife. Pres
entity the latter came upon the body
Of man with hole in its skull
Evidently there had been a murder,
Traphagan looked at it and was
struck by an idea. DISAPPOINTING. he
took the murdered mans belongings, a
few small articles, then rode on.
Some hours later he found Arnold
snoozing on the veranda of a tavern
and slipped the dead mans property
into his pockets. Then he went la to
the bar and told those gathered there
that he had seen murder and Arnold
was the murderer. They all went out
awakened the sleeper, searched him al
Traphagan's suggestion and found the
articles.
The dead man was identified, and
the articles found on Arnold were
proved to have belonged to him. This

ASSAULTED BY A NEGRO
Was the Girl After He Had Shot Her
Fiance-Pursued BY Posse.

Washington, Sept. 3O.-A posse is
securing Alexandria county, Virginia,
for a negro who waylaid and perhaps
fatally shot John William Mullen,
aged 21, near Ro&lyn, opposite this
city, and then assaulted Miss Amelia
Weiss, aged II, Mullen's fiance, with
whom he was out walking. Without a
word of warning the negro opened fire
on Mullen, shooting him through the
mouth and splitting his tongue. The
assaiIant then dragged the girl into a
thicket, holding her captive for more
than an hour. Mullen and the girl
finally escaped and gave the alarm.
