Bold by dr-egtr.__ CAREER OF A DESPERADO. NEW ANECDOTES OF NOTORIOUS BEN THOMSON, OF TEXAS. His Wonderful Aim and Playful Use of Pullets—A Triumphant Entry Into Austin—His Last How. P EOPLE in the capital of Texas still talk about Austin’s fa¬ mous desperado and pet bad man, Ben Thomson. Some of the stories, says an Austin letter to the New York Sun, have never been printed. In appenrance and manner he recalled Perry, the great train rob¬ ber. Like him, Ben was a model of neatness and good taste in dress. He resembled a dapper dry goods clerk. He carried a slight, willowy cane, wore clean linen, and his feet and hands were as dainty as those of a woman. In frolicking with his wife she could throw him on the lloor and hold him there, and she possessed no more than ordinary strength. In a rough-and tumble fight, without his pistol, Ben would have been nowhere with a lusty youth; but when it came to the revol ver he was a wonder. No man ever lived who could draw quicker or fire with more unerring aim. It was his boast that for twenty years, during his amazing career, he never missed his mark, and no antago¬ nist ever got the drop on him. Ben was of Engish birth, his father moving to Texas when Ben was just beginning to walk. The boy enlisted in the Confederate Army when about sixteen years old. The first thing he did was to quarrel with his Lieuten¬ ant, whom he struck iu the face, for which he was chained to the floor in the guard house. The confinement became so galling that Ben, in his rage, set fire to the building and was released barely in time to escape be¬ ing burned to death. Crossing tho Rio Grande he served under Maxi¬ milian for two years. His principal occupation was in running down de¬ serters. He inado a brilliant success of the business. He did not bring back many deserters, but, ou the other hand, the deserters did not get away. He returned to Austin toward the close of the war, married and settled down as the most prominent citizen, which reputation stayed with him to the end. He would remain quiet and pleasant for weeks and months at a time, smiling, genial, suave, a piuk faced man to whom every one was proud to take off his hat. Then, after a time he would begin to grow moody and reserved. Those who knew him well would remark: “Ben’s getting bilious again, and nothing will cure him but the killing of some one.” Soon the cure would bo brought about and Ben would become his old, mild mannered self again. His facetious ness had different ways of expressing itself. A favorite method was to mount his horse and ride full speed up and down the main street of Austin, shoot¬ ing out the street lamps, while his ad¬ miring friends ducked to cover, though no one was ever hurt during those escapades. When tired of this fun he would ride down to the Mayor’s office, pay his fine and go home. Oc¬ casionally he would lock the Mayor in his own place until his friends released him. The Mayor took all this good naturedly, because it was prudent to do so. Thompson went down to San An¬ tonio on one of his periodical sprees. He was showing signs of bilonsness again, and something had to be done to get his liver right. He picked a quarrel, or rather renewed an old one, with the keeper of a variety theatre, who had long before earned his title to that of a bad man. Ben took a drink at the bar, which formed a part of the place of entertainment and told his enemy that he would be back in half an hour to close up accounts with him. Thus warned, the m n n leaned his double-barrelled Bkotgun in the corner behind the bar within instant reach, and awaited Thompson. At the end of the half hour he saw Thompson standing about a dozen paces off, his hands at his side, as motionless as a statue, but looking steadily at his enemy behind the bar. Thompson had been drinking and his tacts was of a fiery red, but he was able to stand without a tremor, and the steady, terrible stare of his gray eyes were like those of a devil. There could be no mistake; he was there to kill. The landlord caught up his gun sighted over the bar, and let fly with both barrels straight at Ben Thomp son. The horrified crowd looked to see him slump downward with half his body blown away, but he did not stir. The man, although a superb marks¬ man, had not so much as pierced his clothing with a single pellet of lead, but he had given Ben the excuse for which he was waiting, and he drew and fired. A single shot was suffi¬ cient, and he did not waste any more on tho victim, who must have been in a state of collapse before he tried to aim his gun. This affair caused more than the usual flurry. Thomson was arrested and confined without bail pending his trial. He had been appointed Assist ant Marshal at Austin, and the citizens became indignant because of his long confinement while awaiting trial. The papers spoke of the outrage—was there ever an arrest that wasn’t an outrage?—of keeping “Our Ben” so long in jail, and demanded that prop¬ er consideration should be shown him. Soon he was tried, and with the usual result; he was acquitted on the ground of self-defence. When he Q a q r rr were in waiting, cr esides a crowd of several thousand. The mo ment the familiar figure, in his natty , dress, appeared on the railway plat formthe multitude broke into frenzied cheers. Ben raised his hat and bowed iu acknowledgment, for he dearly loved to be appreciated. Idea his enthusiastic friends unfastened the horses and drew the carriage in tri¬ umph through the streets, while handkerchiefs waved from windows and fair faces beamed with joy. This town knew how to welcome her great est hero. But the pitcher wont to the well once too often. It was down in San Antonio again that Thomson and ono or two cronies started on a death¬ killing spree. They went baok to tho variety theatre, quarrelled, wont off, and then returned. They were ex¬ pected by a half dozen of their en¬ emies, who received them with a volley from their ritles. Ben went down on his back, riddled like a sieve. While dying he wabbled his revolver about, and with his eyes glazing in death fired at one of the men, who had once been his partner. The bullet struck the man in the knee and then Thom¬ son fell back dead. Tho wounded man, who had received the desperado’s last shot, was obliged to have his leg amputated and died from tho opera¬ tion so that tho end of Ben Thomson was in consonance with his whole life, for, like Colonol Jim Bowie at tho Alamo, ho killed a man wliilo in tho act of dying himself. SELECT SIFTINGS. One-eiglith tho population of Great Britain is in Loudon. Gold which is pure is said to bo twenty-four carats fine. Herodotus says that Croesus was the first ruler to order gold coins made. When Japanese oranges have tho skin removed tho sections will fall apart naturally. Belgium took its name from tho Belgae, a warlike tribo which inhab tied it before the time of Christ. Ten sick days a year are said to bo the average human allowance, but it must be a matter difficult to esti¬ mate. ‘ It is within tho easy memory of people of middle age when a banana was a great rarity in tho United States. General Greene had tho reputation of being tho most polite man in the Revolutionary Army during the war for independence. A lady who was dying of consump¬ tion last summer is well now. She was struck by lightning, and since has steadily gained iu health. William Penn’s formal but kindly politeness impressed even the Indians with whom he dealt. One of tho names given him by them was “The Good Big Chief.” Mr. Mudd, of East Boone, Mo.-, was elected when he ran for office, snd Mr. Pistole, of Nodaway County, has long been used to jokes about going offand getting loaded. A man near Doniphan, Mo., chopped down a tree to get at a coon, Then he found tho hole he was watching was made, not by a coon, but by a cannon ball, fired durian the Civil War. If the lava and ashes vomited from Vesuvius since A. D. 79 could be molded into bricks there would bo a sufficient number to make a city as large as New York and London com¬ bined. A broadsword of the Commonwealth period, bearing the inscription : “For the Commonwealth of England,” and supposed to have been the sword car¬ ried by Oliver Crommell himself, was sold at an auction iu London the other day for $604. During the Franco-Prussian War tho Gerinau fired 30,000,000 rifle car¬ tridges and 363,000 charges of artil¬ lery, killing or mortally wounding 77,000 Frenchmen, showing that 400 shots were required to kill or mortal¬ ly wound one man. Caiilornia’s Orange Output. Tho managers of the Riverside (California) Fruit Exchange has just issued a report which is very en couraging to orange growers. It says that up to date the exchange has paid over during the present season to the twelve associations in Riverside which composes it the sum of $119,000, and the exchange now has fruit valued at $150,000 en route to Eastern pcirts, making a total of $269,000 worth of fruit thus far sent forward. The re¬ port adds: “The shipments of oranges from .Southern California this season up to date have been very much heavier than any previous year, the total up to yesterday exceeding 2750 cars. This would indicate that oranges have been moving very rapidly from other points, as the above number of car loads would probably cover about fifty jier cent of the entire crop in Southern California.” — Washington Star. A Tantalizing Answer. A certain English commodore, who had the misfortune to lose a leg m a shark encounter, was beset wherever he went with questioners, eager to know how, when, and where he had met with his loss. He finally invented an expedient for suppressing his tor¬ mentors. He would promise to an tfae T^tion. .. , but . on.y one, swe J, “ 0D ; on the subject. 1 he question invaria¬ bly was, “Howdidyou lose your leg?” and the invariable answer, “It was bit off,” which, of course, left his hearers more curious than ever.—Argonaut.

The mail continues to bring to the white house many “twin ami triplet” letters, as Private Secretary Thurber denominates them. There is little va¬ riation in the style of the epistles, and few of them close without a request for assistance. Here are extracts from three of a dozen or more which found their way into the white houso waste basket recently: “We have two children and expect another very soon. If it is a boy it will he named Grover if you will lend me $500.” “My wife noticed in tho papers an account of the triplets which were christened after your family, and the outcome of the matter. She says now, how will it be with a fonrth-olass post¬ master's children ? We have two girls, which we liavo christened, one Ruth and the other Esther. Unfortunately we have no photographs ns yet, not being able to have them taken. Any little memento will satisfy her and will be thankfully received by all tho fam i>L” “Sir: Ou the 12tli of June, 1893, there was a boy baby born to me at my house, weighing ten pounds at birth. I was so enthused over your election and inauguration that I named my baby Grover in houor of Grover Cleveland, president of the United States. My boy will be two years old June 12, 1895, and would appreciate a present from the chief magistrate of our nation.” Those bogging letters, which were quite interesting at first, are getting to be tiresome as they multiply .—New York Times. Chinese Host Dwellers. The swarming inhabitants of these floating tenements have tlioir only homes upon tho waters of the noble Felling river. Tho miles of closely cjAwded boats moving between restlessly tho up and down stream green fields, resemble a hugo metropolis of vast squares and avenues, river rocked cradles, where the drama of life is en¬ acted by the thousands who glean but a scanty livelihood. As soon as a boy born to ono of these river denizens can stand upon his little feet, lie is strapped to a skull or oar, and begins to go through the motions of propelling the boat,earning his living at least in theory, from the earliest age. Whenever his hair is sufficiently long to plait into n respectable tail, ho begins to manipulate chop-sticks, to Hate foreigners, to understand tho ring of money and in timo to paddle liis own small wherry and carry a for¬ eign devil up and down tho river. If ho wishes to see a little of the world he may ship upon a traveling junk, not to venture,however,outside of Chinese waters, and after accumulating a few dollars ho takes to himself a wife and establishes his home among the river population.— Outing. ♦ He Was a Hog. At a reception in Paris, a traveler, who was a strong “Anti-Hemitic” was nlking to Rothschild on tho beauties i,l the island of Tahiti, and sarcasti-1 ! eally remarked: Jews' “There are neither hogs nor ' thero!” “Indeed!” retorted Rothschild. “Then you and I should go there.

Every one who has ever visited Niagara Falls, remembers tho exor¬ bitant charges of hacks, elevators, tolls, admissions, oto., and congratulates himself that he escaped with his mor¬ als, even if his pockets were empty. All that extortion is soon to bo done away with by the Niagara gorge elec¬ tric railway, from Niagara Falls to Lewiston.

It is proposed by this railway to charge but one fare and that not extravagant, for the round trip, to include the finest views to bo had from tho American side. It is ex¬ pected that this electric railway will be running by the time the tourist season is at its height, and that it will attract many more visitors to this greatest of nature’s wonders, especi¬ ally as it will bo possible to offer bet¬ ter rates to excursion parties from all pointB. Agreed With His Cross-Examiner. Mr. James Hyde, once a Iawyor in a small town on Long Island, tolls a good story about himself. He says: “It was when I used to practice law in a little town near the center of the state. A farmer had one of his neigh¬ bors arrested for stealing ducks, and I was employed by tho accused to en¬ deavor to convince tho court that such was not the case. Tho plaintiff was positive that his neighbor was guilty, because he had seen the ducks in tho defendant’s yard. t l i How do you know they are your ducks?’ I asked. »( ‘Oh, I should know my own ducks nnywherel’ replied the farmer, and be gave me a description of their various peculiarities, whereby ho could readi¬ ly distinguish them from others. i i i Why,’ said I, ‘those ducks can’t be of such ruro breed I I have soon some just like them in my own yard.’ “ ‘That’s not at all unlikely,’ replied tho farmer, ‘for they are not tho only ducksl have had stolen lately.’ ”— In¬ dianapolis Sentinel. “Carrying Coals to Newcastle.” Au English lady set oufsLr Germany ‘ ,u a visit to some of her relatives. 8he took with her a handsome pressnt, con sistiug of a silver urn, by way of sliow iug her dear continental friends a spec men of British artistic skill.

At thirteen months what he did at birth—seven pounds.
