FOLLOWED, I was acting as Paymaster and Chief Commissary Clerk for a firm of grade contractors upon the Northwestern road, which was then pushing through North¬ ern Nebraska into the adjacent Territory of Wyoming. We were doing some heavy grading and rock work, and with a large force were pushing the work day and night iu order to get out of the way of the track, which had then advanced to a point with¬ in a day’s ride of us. We had let pay-day slip by without paying the men, and hoped to satisfy them by the issue of time checks until the track should overtake us, and our money could come to us with little risk on the construction train. But, three or four days after “paying off” time, some of the men began to grow suspicious and to grumble, and threatened to quit work until their checks were cashed. They were afraid we might somehow slip up on them and they wouldn’t get their money. As we were in desperate need of every available hand, it was necessary that the men should be satisfied, So it was determined that I should go tA Chadron, our supjfly base aud banking point, and bring up enough money to pay the men their last month’s wages, which amounted to about four thousand dollars. I decided to go alone. I set out that night on horseback, and I reached the “end of track” at Crawford siding the next morning iu time to leave my horse at a neigboring ranch corral, and get aboard a supply train which had just unloaded, and was now' going back. At Chadron the supply store of the main contractor, a huge, roughly built shed, Stood at a side track about forty rods from the main street of the town. Here I was accustomed to order supplies, and get drafts Tor money from the book¬ keeper from time to tune. That morning, after finishing my busi¬ ness with the supply department, I went to the book-keeper to procure a draft. A crowd of railroad laborers were waiting before his window to get their time- checks cashed, or secure passes to go up or down the road. I noticed that two of these men were better dressed than the others, but ’thought nothing of the circumstance. I awaited my turn at the window, and handed the book-keeper a slip of paper oil which was written, 1 ‘Four thousand three hundred and forty-seven dollars and fifty cents, Pay Roll—Rodney and Curtis.” He made me a draft for the amount named, folded it carelessly, thrust it through the window, and took the receipt which I had just written, and then turned to the next man. As I left the store I passed the two men whom I had noticed at the window j and it struck me, upon a more attentive view, that they were rather sharpers than work¬ ingmen, although I had seen them cash two time-checks, and get passes for some point up the road. The construction train did not leave until 8 o’clock that after¬ noon, and I lounged upon the shady stoop of the Chadron House watching the passers-by and chatting with the landlord, who was an old acquaintance of miue when I lived in the East. I had a pleas¬ ant dinner with him, and after the meal was finished, I walked across the square to Lake & Haley’s Bank, at the corner of the two principal streets of the town, where I cashed the draft. The bills I received I stuffed into vari¬ ous side pockets of my clothes, and stowed a sack of silver change into a small leather “grip” which I carried iu my hand. I heard a locomotive whistle and, turn¬ ing walked quickly out of the bank. As I reached the sidewalk, I was startled to see the two men who had before attracted my notice step rather hastily away from the sidewalk iu front of the bank windows, and walk across the street. I was satis watched Ispicious [cireum- later, bnstruc- I I loung¬ in', .’king levkk'i'.L le them, lice me _ or not a t set^n^iooKkeepe^alon^before I COl I obtained my check, and should have had my cash made up by the clerk at the bank. and brought to my room at the hotel, as might easily have been done. But it is easy enough, after you have done a fool- ish thing, to think how much better you mighthave * While managed it. I sat upon one of the hand benches in the caboose, with my “srip” lying beneath the seat, I considered how I should dodge the two fellows at Craw- ford. There was no danger that I should be robbed on the train, as there were at least twenty passengers on board. Pres- ently one of the men sauntered up to my seat, ^at down by me, and began to talk. “Sec?” said he, “You're with Rodney an 1 Curtis, ain’t yeh, one o’ their fore- men?' I answered carelessly that I was in their employment. “Paul ’n' Is goin’ up the road lookin' fur a rock job. We're strikers. Could yehire us, d ye think?'' “Certainly," said I, “we need more badly, especially good strikers. Will give you two dollars a day, and you can work a part of the night shift. If you like. Then, as unconcernedly as I could. I went on to tell him About our work, and directed him how to find our headquar- ters. I told him I should leave Craw- ford after breakfast the next morning on partner wagon or our ■n with 1 dark- - : \ TT ’A Y TT Y to his !j\\ji iLJDLA Ij ^^^iulated me off my guard. On my arrival at Crawford I went to the company's tent, where food and other supplies brought on the construction trains were stored until they could be shipped forward by wagon to points where our forces were at work. There I explained the situation to the two clerks in charge of the tent, and said that I wished to spend the night with them. I was armed with a good “six-shooter,” and the clerks had each a light Winches¬ ter rifle. They said we could guard the money without trouble that night, and it was arranged that I should start for the grading camp at three o’clock the next morning. By leaving at so early an hour I believed that I could baffle pursuit by any robbers tvho might have conspired to follow me. My pony—a tough Oregon half-breed —was picketed that evening behind the supply tent, and the clerks and I took turns in sitting on guard at the opening of the tent. I saw nothiug of the two “strikers” after we left the train, aud no suspicious person approached the tent that night. I shifted the silver from my “grip” into a pair of saddle-bags, and, armed with my revolver and a borrowed Winchester rifle and a belt of cartridges, mounted my pony at three o’clock the next morning to complete my journey. Day was just breaking when I came to the fork of the trail at Fort Robinson, two miles out from Crawford siding. Both routes led to the grading camp— one trail lay through White River canon and the other led to my destination by way of Driftwood. One of these routes I must take, aud as the men who were “shadowing” me believed that I would proceed by way of Driftwood I chose the White River canon route, a rough, new trail that for seventeen miles ted through a tumbled, rocky gorge or canon in the bottom of which rippled merrily the little streamlet that is the beginning of the White River. I urged my pony at a good pace until, after sunrise, I passed a camp of freight¬ ers who werejpreparing their breakfast, and later met several wagons on the move, which relieved the loneliness of my ride and caused me to feel more se- cure. As the morning was hot and op- pressive I now proceeded more slowly. About half an hour after meeting the freighters I halted at one of the numer¬ ous creek crossings, and dismounted to drink and to cat a •part of the lunch ot crackers and dried beef which I had brought from the commissary tent. As I had no cup I stretched myself out upon the rocks at the edge of the current, and buried my nose in the cool water of the spring-fed stream. As I lay drinking, v ith my head just above the water, a distant sound of hsrses’ hoofs struck on my ear. I ceased to drink, listened intently, and soon heard distinctly the noise of horsemen coming rapidly up to the canon. I sprang to my feet in alarm. My first impulse was to mount my pony and apply the spurs, but as his gait, a racking gal¬ lop, was a very slow one, T came to the sudden conclusion to dodge into the brush and let the horsemen, whoever they were, go by. There were a few box alder-trees and several clusters of plum bush close ueder the rocks on the right. I grasped the bronco’s rein, and led him in behind the thickest of the thorn and tied him. I had little time to think or act before the horsemen came up at a gallop. I peered through the leaves as they rattled on, aud discovered that there were six riders, and that the two strikers were in the lead. They passed my hiding-place without an apparent suspicion that I was concealed there, and, though still much alarmed, I was congratulating myself that I had outwitted them when, just as they rode into the water, my pony lifted up his head and uttered a shrill, inquiring whinny. The party instantly halted. Every rider turned his face eagerly in my direction, and a half-dozen rifles and re¬ volvers were jerked into readiness for action. Mj r pony whinnied again before I could get a grip upon his muzzle, and I felt that unless some unexpectedly fortu¬ nate circumstance intervened I should lose the money and probably my life. The horsemen were determined, villain¬ ous-looking men, and as I glanced about I saw they had a great advantage over me. The scattered patches of pine scrub on the steep bare sides of the gorge offered me but little shelter for a retreat, and the bushes behind which I stood were but a slight protection against Heavy bullets. At a second whinny of my horse the men dismounted and stood be¬ hind their animals. “He’s in there, sure,” I heard one of them say. “Spread out, boys an’ let's surround them bushes.” Without waiting to hear any more I thrust the Winchester through the tops of a plum bush and fired at the nearest horse, aiming at its body back of the shoulder. The animal went down with a groan, and the man behind it sprang back with a fierce oath. Mv only hope now lay in swift action find certain aim. A quick motion of the lever reloaded and cocked my Win- Chester, aud almost before the horse had fallen to the ground I had aimed and fired at the fellow as he turned to run for cover. He fell, but got up and ran again, Shifting my aim, I opened a rapid fire upon the other horses and meu. The robbers returned a few hasty and inef- fectual shots and then scattered in flight, ^ben I had fired the seventeen shots, which emptied my repeating rifle, three horses lay on the borders of the canon at various distances away, and one man with a broken leg Mas dragging himself toward the shelter of the creek bank, His companions had fled down the canon, two on foot ahd the otners on horseback, Three or four of their shots had struck in brush about me, but none had hit, me. The sudden, fierce determination which had seized upon me, and the swift, effective firing which followed, were as much a surprise to myself as thev could have been to the “road agents,” who no doubt believed there was more than one shooter behind the bushes that sheltered me. I dared not stop to look after the wounded man, who undoubted- ly would have fired at me if I had ap- proached him. Mounting my pony and keeping bushes.'I as much as possible under cover of rode my animal at his best speed up the canon. About five miles from the scene of the shooting I came upon a graders’ camp, and sent some of the men to look after the wounded robber aud to secure the’ saddles of the fallen horses. I afterward learned that they got the saddles but. 'could find nothing of the man. Youth's Companion. The Demon Steer. According to George Wilson, a Wyo¬ ming cowboy, says a correspondent of the New York Sun , there has roamed on the ranges adjacent to the Platt and the Laramie Rivers for these many years a mastodon wild steer whose aggressive¬ ness and power make him the dread of every round-up outfit. This combative beef bears not a brand, but no “rustler” dare appropriate him. “The demon steer,” as the pugnacious brute is called, knows no fear, and with lowered head, glistening eyes and sonor¬ ous bellow will charge upon anything in liis course. Time upon time has he been rounded up with his comparatively docile companions, but he invariably rushes past the line of riders as if no such obstruction to his flight existed. Once an outfit determined to effect the capture of the big fellow, but after he had gored two horses and seared the wits from half a dozen riders the undertaking was abandoned. This prairie terror only last season, in a fit of rage at those who dared intrude on the peaceful solitude of the range, charged at midday into a camp, creating a panic to which was ideal quietness the clatter incident to the stampede of the fabled bull in the imaginary china shop. There was a grand scattering of equip¬ age and a disordered flight of the diners. One of these latter was so incensed that, contrary to all orders, he sent a six- shooter ball after the massive steer, but the missile flew wide of its mark. Wilson asserts that he will undertake to prove that the “demon steer” killed a big bear in a fair fight on the Sabylle three years £go, and the cowboys will bet all their earthly belongings that Demon can conquer any bull in the Territory. The combat with the bear was a terrible affair. Bruin was forced to the defen¬ sive from the start, and for a time pluckily met the fearful onslaughts of the fighting steer, jarring the-great form with blows from liis paws. ^ The activity of the steer was marvelous. He played around his antagonist as the sparrer an¬ noys his foe, and at nearly every charge ran his long sharp horns into the blood- matted sides of the bear with the wicked “swish” of the effective sword thrust. Wilson thinks the “demon steer” will die of old age. The man who attempts his capture takes his life in his hands. Devices of Hindoo Criminals. Some curious devices practiced bj criminals are mentioned by the writer ol a series of articles in the Times of India on “By-paths of Crime in India.” One curiosity which lie was shown on a visit to the jail in Calcutta was a heavy lead bullet, iibout three-quarters of an inch in diameter. This was found on au habitual thief, and was being used to form a pouch or bag in the throat for secreting money, jewels, etc., The iu the event of his being searched. ball is put into the mouth, and is allowed to slide down gently until it reaches some part near the epiglottis, where it is held in position and is kept there for about half an hour at a time. This operation is repeated many times daily, and gradually a, sort of pocket is formed, the time being longer or shorter, according to the size of pocket required. In some cases six months have been suffi¬ cient, in others a year, while in some cases two years are necessary. Such a pouch as this last is capable of holding ten ru¬ pees, about the size of ten florins. The thief, therefore, can undergo search, and nothing being found, he goes away with the spoil in his throat, the power of breathing and speech being in no way in- terferred with. About a score of prisoners in the Cal¬ cutta Jail have such pouch formations. In the hospital of the prison the visitor learned some of the malingering - practices of Indian criminals. In one case he saw a youth who was a perfect skeleton, with lustrous eyes looking out in a ghastly manner from a worn, haggard face. It was discovered that he had for two years been taking an irritant poison, with a view to produce diarrhoea, in order to shirk work and get pleasant quarters in the hospital. But he had overdone the part, for he had reduced himself to such a condition that recovery was all but im¬ possible. This taking of internal irri¬ tants is a common practice among the habitual criminals of Caleulta. Castor oil seed, croton seed and two other seeds which have no English name are the agents most commonly employed. One man was pointed out who, in order to get off his fetters, had produced an ulcer by rubbing the chafed skin with caus.m lime and then irritating the sore by scratching it with a piece of broken bottle. How file Baby Grows. In the last volume of the “Education Series” on the “Development of the In¬ tellect,” H. W. Brown has presented a conspectus of the observations of Pro¬ fessor Preyer on the mind of the child, which shows chronologically the gradual development of the senses, intellect and will of the growing child, and presents in a condensed form the result of a great number of careful observations. It is re- corded that sensibility to light, touch, temperature, smell and taste are present on the first day of infant life. Hearing, therefore, is the only special sense which is not active at this time. The child hears by the third or fourth day. Taste and smell are senses at first most active, but they are not differentiated. General organic sensations of well-being or dis- comfort are felt from the first; but pain and pleasure, as mental states, are not noted till at or near the second month. The first sign of speech in the shape of utterance of consonant sounds is heard in the latter part of the second month, these consonants being generally “m, “r,” “g” or “t.” All the movements of the eyes become co-ordinate by the fourth month, and by this time the child begins to have the “feeling of self”— that is, he looks at. his own hands and looks at himself in the mirror. The study of the child's mind during the first year shows conclusively that ideas de- velop and reasoning processes occur be- fore there is any knowledge of words or of language; though it may be assumed that the child thinks in symbols, visual or auditory, which are clumsy equiva- lents for words. By the end of the year the child begins to express itself bv sounds—that is. speech begins. The development of this speech capacity is, according to Preyer, in accordance with the development of the intellectual powers. By the end of the second year the child’s power of speech is practically — Chicago Herald. A Hatter of Health. Almost every branch of gymnastics is employed doctors, in one way or another by the but the simple and natural function of singing has not yet received its full meed of attention. In Italy, some years ago, statistics were taken which proved that the vocal artists were especially long-lived and healthy, under normal circumstances, while of the brass instrumentalists itwas discovered that con¬ them. sumption never claimed a victim among Those who have a tendency to¬ ward consumption should take easy vocal exercises, their no matter how thin and weak voices seem to be. They will find a result at times far surpassing any re¬ lief afforded by medicine. Vocal prac¬ tice, iu moderation, is the best system of general gymnastics that can be imag¬ ined, mauv m iselos being brought into play that would scarcely be suspected of action in connection with so simple a matter as tone production. Therefore, apart from all art considerations, merely as a matter of health, one can earnestly say to the healthy, “Sing! that you may remain so, ” and to the weakly, “Sing that you may become strong.” Relief for Luug Troubles. A Southern lady, having heard that there was peculiar virtue in a pillow made from pine straw, aud having none of that material at hand, made one from fine, soft pine shavings, aud had the pleasure of noting immediate benefit. Soon all the members of the household had pine shaving pillows, and it was qpticed that all coughs, asthmatic or bronchial troubles abated at once after sleeping a few nights on these pillows. An invalid suffering with lung trouble derived much benefit from sleeping upon a mattress made lrom pine shavings. The material is cheap and makes a very pleasant aud comfortable mattress, the odor of the pine permeating the eutire room and ab¬ sorbing odors. or dispelling ail unpleasant A correspondent of the BaltimoreMan- ufacturers’ Record writes that tho okra plaut has a fiber better suited for making that bagging for cotton bales than jute, and it can be more easily worked.
