Aelders but sometimes with the very people
Wnom they were hoping to protect. This made
the work hard and discouraging, as work al
ways Is hard and discouragng when it is done
amid enemies who wear the guise of friends
For this kind Of service Capt. Bill Melon
aid was eminently qualified. Already he had
been appointed special Ranger in Company
b, commanded by Capt. S. A. McMurray, but
his duties as U. s. deputy marshal in No-Man's
Land and In the Cherokee strip had been his
Chief work. Nevertheless he had, on occasion,
engaged in bandit hunting in his own state,
during this period, either alone or in company
with other officials, usually with good results
Events of this sort kept Bill McDonald's
name fresh in the Texans minds and made
him seem peculiarly eligible for regular SER
vice. The resignation of Capt. S. A. McAIur-
ray, who had long and bravely commanded
Company B, became his opportunity and he
hurried to Austin to try for that command.
His old friend, James Hogg, was now gov
ernor of the state. Since the settlement of
their differences so long before there had been
discord of any kind end each had admired
the others career, proud to remember the
friendship. Arriving at the capital now, Nc
Donald was shown in to the governors room
Greeting him, he said:
'Well, / hardly know what to call you, since
you got to be governor. / don't know whether
to call you Jim or Mister I'll have to call
you Governor I guess. as I want to get a
place."
They shook hands cordially. Gov Hogg
said:
"What is it, Bill? What can do for you?"
"Why," said Mcdonald, Il came down to
get to be Ranger captain-to take McMurray's
place in Company B."
Hogg looked at him reprovingly.
"Why didn't you let me know sooner?" he
said. There are two other applications for
the place. both from good men, with long Pc
titions and fine Endorsements"
The applicant for position forgot his old
friends title.
"Why, Jam, never thought of it until a day
or two ago. didn't have time to get indorse-
ments. but can get em, if you want them.
have been working mostly in No-Mans Land
and the Territory lately, but have done work
in Texas too, and l can get about any kind OF
Endorsement you want
Fogg laughed. He had robust sense OF
humor
That's all right, BILL he said; you have
already got the best Endorsement I ever saw"
Mcdonald looked puzzled.
Il don't understand" he said II didn't
know anybody knew l wanted the place."
"All the same you have got the indorse-
ments," insisted Hogg.
He turned to his desk and got out bundle
of letters.
Look over these" he said. "You probably
know some of the writer's"
Mcdonald took the letters and read them
one after another. They were from well-known
criminals, their lawyers. their friends and their
associates. They had been received by Hogg
while he was attorney general and each was

official, whose chief recreation was bounding
good citizens for the sake of revenge or glory.
and adding that it was not unusual for him 10
put the said citizens in Jail or In box cars
declaring further that he sometimes hltcned
them to posts with chains and that he was
menace to legitimate settlement and society
in general
Mcdonald looked over some of these docu-
ments and grinned.
That's SO, Jim," he said, 81 do put 'em
in box cars when there amt a jail; the way
used to do back in Mneola-you recollect,
when the Jail was full-and l lariat 'em out
with chain and a post when there amt
box car handy; but don't reckon they're in
nocent none"
Hogg nodded.
"Those Endorsements are good enough for
me-" he said. "Tbey carry the flavor of con-
viction. l appoint you Ranger captain on the
strength of them"
Mcdonald returned to Quanah with his ap-
pointment as captain of Company B, Frontier
battalion" The headquarters of the company
were then at Amarillo, in the southern part of
Potter county, near the Randall county line.
This was almost the exact center of the Pan
handle and in locality sparsely settled, un-
tanned and lawless.
Since the early days of Ranging" there
had not been much change in Ranger regula-
tions and equipment. The character of the
WORK, however, mad changed ana the IOrc6
had been reduced in numbers. Company B
now consisted Of only eight members all told.
These were supposed to range over all that
vast section known as the Panhandle and were
subject to orders that might take them to any
other portion Of the state where their assist
ance was needed
1t was in January, 1891, that Bill Mcdonald
received his appointment Ranger captain
and his first official service was not long de-
layed. He arrived at Amarillo about midnight
and was received with congratulations, for the
news had travelled ahead of him. He was tired,
however and the hour late, so he pres
emily slipped away to bed. He had hardly
fallen asleep when he rudely awakened
and handed a telegram which stated that the
Indians had made raid across the border
and we're killing and robbng in Hall county,
near Salisbury.
Capt Mcdonald read the telegram and
laughed There had been no Indian troubles
in Texas for number of years. White rene
gades there were in plenty, but Indian out
breaks had long since ceased.
Il guess the boys are trying to have some
fun with me On my first night he said, and
turned in once more to sleep. But few min
utes later another telegram came; and an
other; this time from the superintendent OF
the railroad company-a Mr. Good, whom Nc
Donald knew as a man not given to practical
joking.
The Ranger captain dressed himself, hur-
ried over to the telegraph Office and got the
operator there to talk the wire to the
operator where the scare had originated. He
learned that it seemed to be genuine and that
everybody was leaving the neighborhood.

over immaterial questions without
ever having to think about the ques-
ton of an income.
Even after his parents died, and
when Ruskin, after middle life, had
practically thrown away the fortune
which had been left him, he still re-
ceiyed an income of some $4,000 a
year from his copyrights, so that new
er once did he know the meaning of
poverty, or what it is to toll for
money.
. All this gave his genius full play.
His eccentricities, so to sreak, were

endowed Had he been less pam
pered, he would have been a very diff
ferent man in every way. Perhaps it
was a good thing for him and for the
world that his circumstances were as
I have described them; but, on the
other hand he lacked that hard ex-
perience which makes men really
strong. Even physically, this may per-
haps have injured him.
To the world at large he seemed a
radical reformer, attacking the whole
commercial system Of modern life,
and hurting epithets that famed like

balefires over social questions. But at
home-and he lived with his father
and mother during the whole forma-
tive period of his life-he seemed
more of a child than a grown man.
He submitted to the dictation Of his
parents in everything domestic. When
he was 40 years of age. he used to
cover up all his cherished paintings
on Sunday, because his mother did not
approve of anything that would please
the feshly eye and distract the ,n.ad
from spiritual meditation.-Lyndon
Orr, in Munsey's.

That he does mis-; that Chiropractic
is THE ONLY WAY to do this, is
now acknowledged by fair minded peo-
pie in the medical profession and out
OF It. The Chiropractic lis destined to
become even a greater factor in heal
Ing the sick than 1t is at present, adj
1nits of no possible doubt, for like all
things 1t has had its beginning, it's
partial development and now, at the
hands OF particularly able practition-
ers like Geo. A. Newsalt, D. c., of this
city, 1t Is certain to stand still higher
In the estimation of every man and
woman who thinks.
A visit to the Chiropractor's Of
fees In the Savings g. Loan building
ON Broadway will be a revelation to
any skeptical sick one. There one can
see and converse with the seriously iii
people who have come from all parts
of the northwest looking for help. That
the Chiropractor is affording such help
can be abundantly proved from the
testimony of those one meets daily.
Surely Chiropractic, affording certain
help and reaching the root of disease,
searching out and removing THE
CAUSE, must become more popular
and more efficient as 1t is better
Known. Sick ones suffering from any
disease that has baffled the medical
practitioners; those who are sick and
tired Of dosing and drugging, should
call upon DIR. Newsalt at his offices in
the Savings & Loan" building Fargo.
