CARRIES HIS HEAHT q,
TIED TO HIS THROkI
(By United PresS)

DENISON, April 23.-Elof Carl
son brought to the market here
a four year old steer that he had
raised whose heart was in sach
hanging under his throat.
The beating of the heart in this
sack can be plainly seen and even
more plainly felt. and there was nc
evidence of heart action in any
other part of the body. The steer
carries his head to one side and
cannot straighten his neck.

the reading space that all of the
western slope papers have given the
game and the advertising that the

to say that thousands of outside peo-

making extensive preparations for
the handling of the crowd
Grand Junction will have the
speediest team which can be gath

victory that day, as the White Sox

The Story of an
Inheritance
By EMILIA PARDo BAzAN

Copyright, by Short Stories Co.. Ltd)
The Angel of Death was drawing
nearer and nearer to Don Javier de
Campuzano, but he watched its ap-
proach without fear, for he repented
of all his sins and trusted In the
mercy of him who died to obtain par
don for all the children of men. There
was only one thing that disquieted
him during the long sleepless nights
that SO weary the old and feeble. He
feared that after his death dissensions
might arise, and bitter conflicts and
litigations might take place between
his children and only heirs, in regard
to the division of his estates. Don
Javier was the possessor of vast do
mains-a man of great wealth, but he
was not ignorant of the fact that the
fiercest battles for money had always
been waged by the rich. He remem-
bered the litigation he had had with his
elder brother, litigation so intricate,
SO relentless, so interminable, that
began by cooling their brotherly love,
and finished by changing 1t into cruel
est hatred. The sin of wishing all
kinds of evil to his brother, of having
injured and DETAINED him, and even
dreadful memory-of having watched
for him one night in the shadow of
the oak grove for the purpose of chal-
longing him to mortal combat, was the
burden that for many years had
weighed heavily upon the conscience
Of Don Javier So far as his intention
was concerned, he had been frati-
eide, and he trembled at the thought
that perhaps his children, whom he
loved so tenderly, should come to
hate each other for handful Of gold.
Nature had given Don Javier an elo-
quent example and severe lesson; his
two children, boy and a girl we're
twins. In order to prevent jealousy
arising from supposed paternal IA
voritism, Don Javier had selected a
military career for his son, SO that he
