P|ONEERS STORY OF THE CAPTURE
 AND KILLING OF BILLY THE KID

ing, with his hands shackled, shot Bell. The Kid went to the outer room and got Winchester. Ollinger heard the shot and started up the steps. The Kid heard him, went to the stairs, he called, Hello Bob." Ollinger looked up. The Kid shot him with the Win chester he had secured.
 Kids Escape
 The Kid left the jail, went across to a blacksmith shop and forced the blacksmith, at the point of gun, to cut his handcutfs and shackles. He took a horse tied on the street and made his escape. From May until July, the Kid was at large, hiding in the vicinity of Ft. Summer and the Maxwell ranch; at which place he had sweetheart, which fact proved his undoing. He came to the ranch to visit the girl and in this way Sheriff Garrett got news of his whereabouts. Garrett went to the ranch, entered the house in which the Kid was, and waited in the living room for the Kid, who had been to another part of the house. The Kid was armed and on the alert. He sensed a strange pre- sence and asked in Spanish, "Who is there?" Garrett fired, killing the Kid instantly.
 Garrett Criticized
 Garrett has been criticized by some for his act, but in the face of the life of the Kid and the 27 men he had slain, his last victims, Ollinger and Bell, it was necessary, for had the Kid seen Garrett, he would have shot him on sight Garrett was brave man and fearless officer.
 An incident of the trip made to Las Vegas with the prisoners was the fact that the man who drove the wagon that carried the Kid and his compan- ions was the father of the man who afterwards killed sheriff Garrett.
 Garrett and his men received re- ward of $500 from the territory of New Mexico, present of S100 from pr. Nauer in Santa Fe, and S1 ,50O from the town of Las Vegas.

The opening Of the Tonopah clno
Saturday evening was revival Of
the custom of the early days and the
merriment that reigned was such as
is rarely to be found except in a big

ceeded the expectations of even the

the place of honor among the back

One of the pleasing surprises of
the evening was the arrival of the
Big Casino orchestra, sent up as a
fraternal offering by the new propr-
etors, Messrs. Thackery and Ritchie.
After they had given concert, the
| Tonopah orchestra of five pieces took
| their place and played until morning
The new owners of the Tonopah club
wish to thank all their patrons and
friends, particularly the Big Casino.
Late in the evening an interesting
incident occurred. A number of To.

men, asked permission to view the
place and when they entered they
were greeted by the removal of hats
and decorous silence until they had
completed their inspection of tht
