him a bunch OF old cowboys whose
regulations were as unsavory as his
own. They were Bobby Shorthandle.
Babe Ellis. Poker Jim" Roberts. and
Garfield Mccoy.
Two deputy sherifs. after skulking
the McCracken ranch. by the use OF
strong spy glasses. saw McCracken
take bunch of horses from a pasture
and drive them TO a corral that was
hid in washout. The officers fol-
lowed and Just rs McCracken was
about TO run the brand on a horse
which he had just roped from the
bunch and thrown. they rode up and
covered him with their guns.
The outlaw hesitated a little when
ordered TO put his hands up, as il
he was measuring chances, but as
both guns were leveled at him. he
obeyed. The officers then disarmed
him. and as he seemed to be perfectly
willing 10 go with them, they did not
handcuf him or reslfain him in any
way.
AS II was almost night the officers
decided to go to the McCracken
ranch and remain until morning On
their arrival Mrs. McCracken. who
kept perfectly cool and seemed not
at all worried over her husbands ar

The officers skulking about in the
hills so long on short rations had left
them half famished. they ate prodig-
iously. after which they moved their
chairs back from the table and lit
their pipes. That was the last they
remembered until morning, when they
awoke, rubbed their eyes and looked
about stupidity. Their prisoner was
gone. They looked at Mrs. McCracken
told them that she had placed some
sleep medicine in their coffee SO that
her husband might make his escape
without having to resort TO shooting.
The officers had 10 acknowledge them
selves beaten and went away empty
handed.
Soon after this word was received
that McCracken was still around in
the Thompson creek country. and
staying with his family most of the
time. Then Sherifis John Thorn. OF
Crook county. Wyoming. and Hy
Hance. OF Butte county. South Dakota.
rode out to investigate.
They kept watch on the place for
several days by means Of spy glasses
when they saw. one morning, Nc
Cracker come out, walk around. and
then re-enter the house. They then
rode up to the place and the little
boy came out to speak with them.
Say, sonny" said Thorn. Go ,eii
your dad to come out here and give
himself up. We know he is in there
and have come to take him. dead or
alive"
Thorn then rode to the top Of .
hill Just in front of the house, while
Hance rode to the rear and took up
his position between the house and
barn.
The officers had hardly reached
their positions after sending the little
boy in with their message when the
door opened directly in front OF Thorn.
Mrs. McCracken stood in the door

band, with Winchester rife laid
across her shoulder.

many boys in the club work next
year, as we have had this year.
There are four clubs that the
boys may join. They may join
the corn club, the cotton club or
the peanut club, or the may join
any number of these. There are
several boys who have already
joined two Of the clubs for next
year A good combination is the
corn and pig clubs, or the pea

wants to learn how to grow feed
along as he learns to raise his
pig,

select a'pig that will not be more
than a year old at the time that
the county fair will be held.
There is nothing in the rules
governing the age of the pig, but
better results can be obtained
during the first year of the life
of the pig than in any other
period of its life covering the

of pig may be used, but better
results will probably be obtained
if a registered pig of some stan

lives on Route No. 1 out Of
Washington, we're painfully in
iured Tuesday when a dynamite
cap with which they were play
ing exploded. The left hand of
the younger girl was so badly
mutilated that it vas necessary
to dmputate the middle finger.
The attending physician is at.
tempting to save the hand, al
though practically all the flesh
was torn from the palm. The
child was also injured by a piece
of the cap i'm bedding itself in the
forehead and another fragment
in the stomach. The older girl
was some distance from the cap
when it exploded and sustained
only a minor injury by a piece of
the cap striking her in the fore
head.
The father of the children was
employed as a laborer on the
railroad about five years ago and
had been engaged in blasting. He
later found two or three of the
dynamite fuse caps in his pocket
and put them away in a cartridge
box at his home. The children
