ÜB-'-no I. eyba’a Daring Life and Sucl * den Death—One of the Most Desper ate Characters Who Ever Made Life 8 Burden to the Peaceful Inhabitants of New Mexico. From the Chicago Tribune. Marino Ley ha was a convict briokmolder s t the New Mexico penitentiary, sentenced tosecen years at hard labor for stealing a horso and attempting to kill the officer who arrested him. He was a Mexican, a giant in stature and a tiger in disposition, and ff t, en in the mood would tight anything. He would kill a man as quick as he would a rabbit. He was notorious as a horse-thief before the law gripped him. But back cf bis artistic method of taking the horses mi cattle of the ranchers was a dark back ground of more serious crimes. Col. Potter, an eastern capitalist with large investments in New Mexico, traveled a lonely trail in the Saudia mountains once too often. His body was found, or rather toe charred remains, for an attempt had been made to cremate it, with a bullet-hole in the bead. The murder was charged to a baud of robbers w hich at that time infested tbe Sandies, and Leyba was known to be one cf their number—probably the leader. This was within thirty miiee of .Santa Be and Albuquerque, where Col. Potter had manvfrienus. People determined to break up tne gang, whose operations were around the mining camps of San Pedro, Dolores and Golden, and organized a posse for that p r; use. l'bey cornered the gang in a little Alencan town, and swung every one of them from the projecting vegas by lariats— all exeunt Leyba, who was not there. He organized another band of stock thieves, ho carried on thoir business for two years with a certain pretended ranch man to “handle the goods.” Tbe ranchman quarreled with Leyba over the price of a stolen horse and was shrewd enough to land him in the penitentiary for soven years. Toe murder of Col. Potter had not" Lee i forgotten, but time aud the summary exe cution of all bu“ one of the gang had less ened public indignation; besides, ail who might have boon witno-ses against Leyba were dead, and seven years was a long sen tence. During the trial the desperado threatened to kill the prosecuting attorney, William Breeden; but once wllhiu tbe stone walls, covered by shotguns during the day, and locked in a strong 7x5 cell at nigh , Leyba changed his tactics and become a model of good behavior and iadus re. Ho was the best hnckmolder in the yard, aud whenever a row occurred among the convicts he al ways helped the ofiioers to quell it. One day Carlos Jaeome, a belligerent young Mexican convict, who wore shackles most of the time for bad conduct, started to fight, and with a blow from lus Ha: Leyba knocked him into a helpless heap. At an opportune time the ranchman, who had sent Leyba to the penitentiary, appeared before tha governor seemingly much cast down and conscience troubled. He apologized for his hand in the affair. His dreams were haunted and his wakiug Bhouts were bit terness itself. Leyba was innocent and he pleaded for a pardon. The fact was that tbe business of stealing horses and cattle was languishing in ihe absence of the alert and daring manager. In the course of time the governor was pursuaded and the pris oner get bis pardon. Once more in the wilds of the Sandias Leyba lost no time in making himself a ter ror to the people there. He knew every trad, every rocky canon, the almost im penetrable aud silent forest which shielded only the mountain Hon, the bear—safe re treats after excursions to the mining camps and ranches. There were murders and rob beries by somebody well posted on the com ings and goings along the mountain roads. At first tue desperado was seldom seen. Afterward he grew bolder and ap peared in San Pedro. Golden aud Cerri ia3, where bo drank and ca roused with men who did not care to fight so long ns they were unmolested. He was always well armed, fearless, and an unerring shot, and his back never turned toward anybody who might be likely to take it for a mark. He had his friends among ex-convicts and other hard charac ters. And there were men, too, who would have been willing to put the finishing touch on iris career, only that there were so many pistols and skilled bands to manipulate them that there would have been a whole sale killing. But this could not last. It hurt these flourishing mining camps, kept investi gators out and capital away, and made life too exciting and uncertain. A strong protest went up to the sheriff of Kata Fo county, and he at once commissioned two men as deputies, who were well fitted to carry out their directions, to take Leyba aii'e or dead. These deputy sheriffs were Joaquin Sloutoya, an ex-guard at the peni tentiary, handy in the use of the knife and Lstol, and Carlos Jncom, the victim of yba’s fist, who had finished his term in tbs penitentiary. - ycuu/ciiwury. Itey were well mounted and each armed witb a brace of forty-fives. The middla of the afternoon of the second day they were up in the mountains on a very faint trail Turning in the direction from which Leyba had been seen to enter Golden. It was twi hgnt under the dense spruce nd pine trees, axid the bottom of the great canon above which the trail wound was an black as night. .*1? slowly turned the c truer of a big lava boulder and atonped—face to face wit a the outlaw, who sat oa bis horse not twenty yatds away with a cocked pistol in each 7i? n i , e ' r Pis'ols were in their belts and the slightest motion of a hand in tr.at direc tjon would have sealod their doom, liut in thinking over the dangerous and highly ramatic situations liable to ocour in hunt mg a desperate man in tho mountains they i.u 0t overl °oked this one.

How Ita Period of Existence Makes Ihat of Man Seem Very i*rief. From the lV'a,s,'tin ;f >n ts ar. One realizes with some vivid idls that man is a creature of few days when looking upon a section of a great tree exhibited in the National Museum, to winch there is at tached an lngonioas chart showing what great events have been oontrmn -raneous with the life of this monster of the forest. The tree of which the chronology is thus given Is a tulip tree and started to grow, a young seedling in the Mississippi valley during the year 1555. It precise age is known, because to determine that point absolutely is simply a matter of couuting rings—one for each twelve-month—in the or- ss section, which was obtained by saw ing. Thus it is readily seen what particu lar ring was the bark of the tree, defining i>s circumference at any given year of its age. In 1558 the tree sprang from a seed and saw ti.e first season of its existence when yueeu Elizabeth me nded the throne. Three successive coats of bark It had assumed wneu Bacon, the future philispber, wa3 born. By the time it had increased its dimensions by one more ring Khnkspearo had come into the world. It was bigger by eight more rings wheu the massacre of St. Bartholomew occurred. Six rings in ad dition had increased the bulk of the tree when, in 1578, Sir Francis Drake discovered the harbor* of San Francisco. Seven more seasons, represented by as many rings, saw tobacco introduced into England from A irglnia, and also wimessed the settling of Roanoke in that state by Sir vV alter Raleigh. While the third ring after those events was forming the Spanish Ar made was destroyed and Mary, Queen of Scots, beheaded. Fifteen more rings and Queen Elizabeth died, the crowns of Eng land aud Scotland being united in the same year, which was also that of the famous Guy Fawkes gunpowder plot for blowing up the Englisu houses of parliament. When the tulip tree had assumed five more overcoats, in 1008, news camj of the invention of the telescope, as well as the making of the present version of the Bible. Five more rings and the Dutch settled at New York, where their descendants still form the molt exclusive aristocracy. The second ring afterward iv is in process cf growing when the first daily newspaper In the world was established. "Throe rings in addition and the great Thirty Years’ war had begun in Germany. Again two rings and the pilgrims landed at Plymouth, New Jersey being colonized in the iame year by the Dutch. Still another ring and cotton began to be planted in the colonies. Nina more layers of bark and Boston was settled; an ex ru one aud the birth of the poet Dry den appeared on the parish r@f~i.-tor. Still the tree kept on gr owing, adding to its tire bv three moro rings by the t ine that, in iC34. Richelieu founded the French academy and Maryland was settled. Eight rings on top of these uud the civil war in England was begun, Sir Isaac Newton o ming into the world at the commence ment of the strife. Three more overcoats he tree, now grown to large size, had put on when Charles I. was defeated at the bat tle of Naaeby an l Archbishop Laud was beheaded. When yet another three rings had been assumed the Thirty Years’ war came to an end, and the very next ring grew in the same season wben'the common wealth was declared in England and Charles I. beheaded. Four more rings aud Cromwell wus made protector. But seven outside of these had to be formed before the restoration of the monarchy in England. Another ring and Defoe, destined to be tbe author of Immortal “Robinson Crusoe,” was born. Four on top of theso aud Milton was writing “Paradise Lost” in the year of the great plague of London—l66s. One ring more aud the great fire of London fol lowed tl.e disaster of the plague. Fifteen riugs and La Salle explored the Mississippi river an extra ring and William Penn set tled Pennsylvania, La Salle exploring Louisiana In the same year. Six rings and there was a revolution In England; one more and William and Mary ascended the English throne. Ada eleven ring* and the population of the colonies had reached 262,000. Four riugs in addition to these and Marlborough won the victory at Blenheim. Two rings again and Frankltn was born; four more and the piano was in vented; four more and Louis XIV. died, George I becoming king in the same year; thirty-six more and the population of the colonies was 1,001,000. That was in 1759. But the tulip tree had not reached maturity yet. It still kept on at the rate of a ring a year, having added four more by the time the French and Italian war began; five on top of these and Schiller was born. Six more rings and u declaration of rights was made by the colonies; six more again and Sir'Walter Scott was born; three more and the tea was thrown overboard in Boston harbor; two more and ;) raddock was defeated, the American revolution immediately following. Nine more rings the tree added before peae was made with Great Britain, and five on top of these when the constitution was adopted aud President Washington i augurated, the French revo lution broaking out in tbesame year. Three more ring* and Illuminati g gas was first used; another one and Whitney invented the cotton gin; six more and Washington died; five more aud Napoleon was made em peror. Three rings be-ide the tree had added when Fulton ascended the Hudson in a stoamb >at: another, and tho slave trade was abolished; three more, and war was declared with Great Britain; six more, aud the first steamship crossed the Atlantic; six more, and. in 1825, the first railway for passengers was iu use, kerosene coming in for lighting purposes in the same year. Four more rings, and friction mate .es were first employed; six more, and the electric telegraph was in vented; five more, and postage stamps came iuto"use; four more, and anaesthesia was discovered; five more, and Sir John Frank lin statted on his expedition to the north role; three more, and sewing machines were first made. And still the tree grew. It had increased in circumference by seven rings when, in 1855, th 6 Atlantic cable was laid. It kant on growing a ring a year during the war of the rebellion, formed a fresh layer of bark when the electric light was invented in 1874, was in the bloom of old age at the time of the subsequent introduction of the telephone and phonograph, aud was only cut down iu the year 1885, during which Cleveland was inaugurated. It was only after sawing out the seoti a now shown at the National Museum that it wa3 learned just how long this pride of the woods bad lived and what a wonderful series of events in history it had survived. THIS FEMALE BMOKER. She Must Pave a Very risrepu’.able Circle of Acquaintance. From the Philadelphia Transcript. Alluding to an article in a Scotch journal by VV. K. Henley, which declares that the habit of smoking is spread! ng among fash ionable women in England, Sliss Gilder says in a letter to the Transcript: I am surprised that so keen a national ob server should have ju t awakened to the fact that cigarette smoking is fashionable in London, it has been for years, though it is not so common there as in this country. It seems to me that half the women ona meets smoke openly or in secret I meau quiet, domestic women, too. One of the most conservative aud thoroughbred women in New York, one whose very name i* a synonym for all t at is lady-like and refined, is an invet erate cigarette smoker.

OCTOBER U, 1891. GIANT APES OF EORNEO. Interesting Facta About Able-Bodied Anthropoids That Live in Trees. From the Washington Star. “My acquaintance with apes has been chiefly male lu Borneo,” said Prof. Henry A. Ward, the fam ms uatunl science col lector of Rochester to a reporter the other day. “That great island is the home of tbe orang, which is the most arboreal of all monkeys. The animals live in trees alto gether, rarely, if ever, visiting the ground. It takes two good marksmen to shoot one. because they dodge around the trunks. They do all their fighting aloft, and it is great fun to see them drop tbe armfuls of fruit they have guthsred in con tests for its possession. They are plentiful in the lowlands near the coast. It is rarely that anyb >dy ventures into tbe interior, be cause there the head-limiting natives prowl. Among them each man is required to have secured a head bef .ro ho is permitted to marry, and on this account the young gentiemau savages are continually looking about fir something to kill. This makes traveling disagreeable. “One of the most noticeable features of the landscape of Borneo 1, the nests of orangs which are scattered about thickly among the tall trees. From their number one might get agreatly exaggerated impres sion of the plentifuluess of the species unless it were understood how and for what pur poses these roosting places were constructed. The beasts are greatly annoyed by Hies, from which they are able to protect the front part of their bodies with their hands, but they cannot keup the vicious insects from biting them in the rear, and so they gather a quantity of leaves and branches and make them into couches to repose against among the boughs. A pro tection of this sort serves very well lor awhile, but presently the material begins to dec mposs and the decaying leaves attract the flies which the orang is so anxious to get rid of. Then he is obliged to make another nest of fresh stuff, and so he may require dozens of them in the course of the year. Inasmuch as he does not take ihe trouble to remove tbe old ones they remain to adorn the tree top in which he swings about. “Orangi have a very curious n ethod of fighting, lu their conflicts among them selves, which are frequent, their effort is always to seize tha fingers of their adver saries and bite them. Avery beautiful group of these animals at the National Mu seum, mouuted by Mr. Hornaday, admir ably ill stratus a typical encounter of the son. It is owing to this method of battle that it is almost impossible to procure a skin that does not lock some of the fingers. If defending itself against a man the Least will always attempt to grab the arms of his h man opponent so ns to chew off his fingers. For this purpose Its jaw is excel lently adapted, being enormously powerful and equipped with huge incisors. “This favorite fruit of orang is the ‘durion’ fruit, which is perhaps the most delicious in the world, uniting as it does the ftavors of the peach, tuep arand the straw berry. Like most things nearly perfect, however, this fruit has a drawback— namely, that it leaves a taste in tbe rnoulh the next day after it is eaten which is more abominable than can either be described or conceived. To protect its .-If from the rain the orang crooks its arms over its head. The hair on the oraug’s upper arm points downward, while on the lower arm it points upward, the apparent purpose being to shed the rain like a thatch wheu tbe attitude I have described is assumed. “The other great ape which makes its home in Borneo is the gibbon, which is a sin-ill animal ootnp&red with the orang, weighing only about forty or fifty pounds. It is very frail iu ita bodily make-up. The head is set squarely upon the shoulders and it looks upward. VV ben walking on the ground it balances itself along like a walker on the tight-rope. Its remarkable power of grasp and dexterity in usiDg its hatid3 is equally with the sbapo of its oranium an index of its superior intelligence, perhaps because it is able to take hold of a greater number oft Dings and examine them. The gibbon is a natural acrobat. Its trapeze performances in trees are simply marvelous. “The animals go in droves, whereas orangs live by families, and one of the most interesting spectacles imaginable is to sen a troop of them crossing a great gap in the forest by throwing themselves in succession through the air, each one taking a swing or two to gather momentum before launch ing himself. So great is their agility that in executing feats of this sort they seem like birds. "Natives in the countries inhabited by great apes regard them alwa s as human beings of inferior types, and it is for this reason that for a long time it was found im possible to get hold of an entire gorilla skin, because the savage- considered it religicsly necessary to cut off the hands and feet of the animals when they killed them, just as they do with their enemies, possibly for the purpose of rendering them harmless in case they should by any chance come to life again,” FERDINAND AND HELEN. A Reconciliation Takes Place Between the Two Lovers. From the Thttsburij Dispatch. Paris, Oct. 10.—A reconoiliation between Mile. Vacaresco and Prince Ferdinand has taken place and the details of it are just made public to-day. It seems that the breaking off of the en gagement was brought about by false l.tters and telegrams sent to each of the lovers, and which made them mutually believe that the other’s affectiou had grown cold and clammy. But the matter was cleared up while the prince was visiting with a family where Mile. Vacaresco spent much of her time. The prince noticed when his visit was young that the attentions of his host were not as ardent as heretofore, and finally when the indifference became so marked that he felt justified in noticing it, he frankly asked the reason, and was just as frankly told it was due to his conduct toward the lady. Derna .ding an explanation, be learned that a telegram had been received by Mile. Vacaresco w hich was supposed to emauate from him, and was of s ,ch a nature as not to be merely offensive, but which was an actual breaking off of all acquaintance be tween them. The prince was highly indignant at this deception that had been practised upon both of them, and additionally so because be knew not whom to suspect. He at once sent a message to Mile. Vaca resco asking whether she would believe his word that he bad never sent any such dis patch as that she had received. The young lady replied that (the believed him abso lutely, to wutch the prince responded that they never would again be separated, SWINDLED ON BIBLES.

Nkw York, Oct. 12.—Stonewall Jaokson autographs and Bibles and other relics of the confederate general are just now a drug in the market. A man who calls himself Thomas Chancellor, of Chancellorsviile, Va., has sold in the last week in New York and Philadelphia about a dosen Stonewall Jackson Bibles. The book dealer paid about $ 1 apiece for thsm aud will sell them for less. "Mr. Chancellor” said to tbs dealers that he was very poor, aud was finally forced to sell Jackson’s Bibles, which he bad kept sacredlv since 1883. He would sell It fnr 1 and the dealer could easily sell it for |25 or s■’>o. The dealers say he is the cleverest swin dler they have met in the hook business.
