THE WEEKLY CONSTITUTION. ATLANTA, GA, (TUESDAY APRIL 20.1886 Judge lynch Overruled. JJy T. Cow®*. [For The CoDititntlon.) I Bill Winston, or “tariat Dill," u ho wii rolled, TO oo expert cowboy, who lived not ihr from Trloldod in aoathern Colorado. A fel low of xood geoeroao impnlooo, ho woe eo reck- lea end dieolpolod ot timeo oo to oomewhot low the confidence of the better portion of the community, although poereealn* boeta of Abode everywhere. Hlo eccentricities if they moy bo colled by to cbnritnble o name, wore not oo very much different from those of otben or hit clusbnt thet be stood well In the soci ety of the cettle men, their wivet end daugh ters. A reciprocal attachment and strong ar- feetion existed between him and Koto Hanley and, inappropriate though it seemed, was too firm to be uprooted. Kate was aglrl of more than ordinary charms, With a flashing black eye and an expression which indicated great firmness and resolution. Her father, n cattleman, had come to Colorado from southwestern Missouri, whero he had a local reputation of being a woodsman and hun ter of no mean pretentions, besides having been a union bushwhacker daring the war. BkiUed in nil the arts of woodcraft and guer rilla wsrfkre, he was a dead shot with- rifle or revolver, and had early trained Kate until she was equally proficient In their use. She had alto become familiarized with the cattle busi ness and frequently, in caw of the absence or disability of her father, had “ridden the range” and corralled horses or cattle with great dex terity. The great respect accorded to women In the west made this a perfectly safa transac tion and gained for her a vory high degree of re spect from tbo cowboys, who, from the netnre of their calling, have a high regard for physi- giving Aim the rein flew away at the height of his speed. Without a tremor and possessed only of the great desire to reach her destination in time, Kate sat in the saddle with a nerve as steady as a cowboy on the “cut out,” but with all her energies awakened to a superhuman activity, which results to some natures from an intensi ty of excitement which would cauw more ex citable people to low control of their fiicultles, presence or mind, or the capacity to act to ad vantage In an emergency. On flew the horse and the miles were left behind w rapidly that Kate hardly knew their passage.. The party of which Kate was In nursulthad a good hour and a half the start and would do hard riding, as they had a long distanoo to go. Before starting the posse had organised suf ficiently to appoint w their leader John Hal- Mic run to neaevn un i-ovxk. cal skill, coolness and bravery. Few men were more expert In tholr horsemanship, and the perfect freedom of the boundless plains at well as the exhilaration of life in the saddle sur- rounded the work with charms which sha found difficulty In resisting, Whothor from necessity orfer pleasure, every spare hour found her on the been of the fleet-rooted, favorite horse, sklmming|over the prairies, either alone or with any girlwbow company she could se cure. At about the time that this story begins, it hud been discovered that quite a number of cattle bad been stolen from the range and re- cently several hides had been found where they had been burled by the slaughterers, but no definite clue to tbs perpetrators bad bwu e perp ml. Upon hearing of thl Influence of liquor, pin, a large cattle owner of great courage, cool ne-s and activity. Liquor had bass passed around, and while no one was in the least in toxicated, It will be safe enough to wy that each were in a more aggressive than Judicial frame of mind. It was nearly ten o'clock when they arrived in sight of the lights of Tommy Koberts’ cabin. A halt was at once called by Halpin and the men ordered to hitch their animals to tho cottonwood trees. After naming their Winchester rifles and heavy double-action revolvers and receiving direc tions, they started as noiwleasly as possible for the bouse. Arriving near tbo hoow they discovered that ithadfouroccupanta. Frank Warner—Roberta partner and a young man—was playing a vio lin. Old Tommy was dancing a clog for the amusement of the boys, ana as his blood warmed up and ho began to feel some of the exhilaration of bis younger days, he called out to Warner to “play a little faster.” With a hoop he redoubled his energy, and Bill and icr cowboy who was in the cabin were ulsed with able to sit In their onco surrounded, several Winchester rifles pointed at each window and several men sim ilarly armed stationed at each door. The hi larity inside continued, andjust pa old Tommy began a new step the doors flew open almost simultaneously and a perfect thicket of Win chesters and revolvers bristled through them. “Hands up, Bill,” thundered John Halpin. Almost instinctively, Warner, Itoberta and the cowboy reached for tlier revolvers, but lielpfn saw tbo move and roared out: "8hoot tho first man who shows sny resistance, boys.” Then In a lower voice he said: “You keep still and J ou will not bo hurt; all wo want it Bill and to avo you keep qnlot." I'AItT II. Of course, Bill's bands wont up at onco and tho rest, as soon as they realised tho force with which they were opposed, became non-resist ant. They were willing and anxious to pro- nation, however, which gave them to unc stand that Bill bad done tho cattle stealing In that vicinity, somewhat changed their svmpa- thy. They could not rid themselves or somo doubts, but knowing the tempor of tbo crowd, pretended to bo as anxious as the rest to too the work go on. Bill was seized and piuloned and after the party had taken a drink all around started for the largest cottonwood tree in tho vicini ty. The tree, upon which tradition said that one cattle thief hail already been hung, was situated In a deep ravine, surrounded by high, sandy banks, wblch was reached by a single narrow entrance. It was a large tree of its kind and nearly three feet in diameter. As 15calibre revolvers and presented a woird of eartrld; appearance, found. U| tho luflue ... swaggerlngly remarked, “ 11 them, and 1 will make the n leu Uutn its months." Blreago as It may seem, this thoughtlea speech was reported and, notwithstanding Bill's well known, whole soulod nature, round many believers. Of course, the story nover lost anything In its travels and it was soon talked that Bill had made fell confession, whlls drunk, and that ho had stolen all the missing cattle. The news spread like wild Are and the Indignation knew no bounds. The ex- oiteaneot was at fever heat and men rods from ranch to ranch and from camp to camp So dis cuss tho matter. But littta confidence existed in the regular organized courts of law, and tho traditions of tho country still tkvored prompt denting with criminals; Judge I.ynch was oftener appealed to than the district court In matters of horse and rattle stealing, henoc, whenever this story was repeated to one of these t'oloradlana, the invariable exclamation that followed was, "A good lariat and ootton- wood tree are about the best things to cure him.” In the meantime, Bill, who was unaware of tho commotion that his thoughtless remark had reused, had gone back to his work and was riding tho range in the interest of bis employ er. One night not long alter, he stayed at tho cow camp or old Tommy Boberts and had ar ranged to return uid stay the next nlglit. This became known to the rattle men over tho "ill vide" and It was decided to hold a session of Judge Lynch's court that night for the purpose of visiting tho Robert's camp and giving Bill a trial. This information was withheld from the people at tho Roberts camp, as well as from Mr. Hanley. There was a feeling, that on ac count of the attachment existing between Bill and Kate, there might be too much sympathy In that quarter to gel any aid for Judgo Lynch's posse. It also occurred that the In formation might ho convoyed to BUI end tholr plain frustrated. hot until the shades of night ware falling did tba party dare lo congregate and then about forty armed cattle men assembled and commenced their ride from tbo settlement on That I never stolo n rent from ony man on this range, or any other, end that I never received n cent nntll I hod earned It,” “Have you any wltnemco?" said tho court to Halpin. “Yea,’’ said he; “threo of them.” Tho first man testified to having found skins of somo of tho stolen animals burled In tbs ground; tho second to having soon Bill ride In that vicinity, and tha third that he had heard him sny that ho stole all of thorn and weald make the range look sick Inside of six mouths. Bill was naked If ha bad any avldance, to which ho answered that there was plenty that ho coaid produce tf he bad an opportunity, bat he stead no show there. Furthermore, he never stole sny entile and what he aald In the saloon was when ho was drunk and merely In fun. This very weak explanation, as It was consid ered, was received with n derisive laugh, and the court addressing tho Jury, wblch was compoaed of tho whole party, arid: "Gentle- men of the jury, you have hoard tho ovldonco, guilty or not guilty!” "Guilty," was the unanimous verdict which nuno with n roar, thqngltiSFanior and Tom Roberts did not vote. the Laa Animas river to the enmp of Tommy Bpherta, on Wachita creek. The prooeedlngs and been conducted with so much secrecy that bat few of tho families of the men engaging knew what was in progress. But one girl, the daughter of a cattle mau atnl a great friend of Kale's, found out, Just as they wore starting, and raddling the pony rede with all passible spaed to the ranch of Mr. Haley. Breathless with haste and oicttrmrnt she ratted Kate out and Imparted to her tho thrilling news. Kate's eyes flashed, her. Juu-clcs hardened and her fitec assumed the-rigidity of a fixed purpose, hut otherwise she hot rayed no amotion, w bile lean ing all the particulars obtalnabla from the excited girl. When this eras over, she proceeded to the house and Informed her parents that she was doing hams with Kellie Auner, her informer, then, wrapping henrlf up warmly, not forget ting her re voire re, hastened away to saddle her pony and at oooe started oak Nall retried to accompany her. sod. for appearance sake, Kste kept alocg with her tor a little ways; them, with a "God biros you, Kellie, say noth ing.” tamed her bones hood screw tha open prairie toward the Tommy Roberta camp and TBK l.YXCUgni AT PAY. This was not noticed, however, or they might have been pat oss trial, too. bat some how or other they had become impressed with the idea that Bill was not receiving exactly fair play. Turning to Rill, tha court said, “Prisoner, you have been tried end found guilty of cattle stealing, and the sentence of this court U that you be hung from a limb of this cottonwood tree until you are dead, and your body left hsugiog unlit the coyotes pick your bones.” Then, addressing the rrowd, he asked, "Have any uf you got a lariat with you?" One offl- eiors individual immediately stepped forward with the rope, and after trying two or three limes, succeeded in throwing it over a limb of the tree, after which several men ware en gaged in adjusting the nooac to Dill's neck. Just at thia moment tho attention of the l^tr was attracted l,y a foaming bona with distended nostrils which dashed up to tha en trance to the ravine, from the back of which a female figure alighted at abound and advanced with n dashing eye, and a revolver leveled at the crowd In each hand It eras Kale, Inst arrived on the teens, to which she had beta directed by the fiiek- ridges. >, and 1 'an nnprrjodlcad person have viewed them, would undoubtedly havo suggested many thoughts of banditti, rand ngantaand other pet horrors with which the youthful Imagination had been fired. But to poor Bill tbo study was an unsatisfactory one. Ashe glanced from face to fare, not n ray of hopo was shed by n single sympathising glance. Fierce hatred and maUolotu Indignation was reflected hack from each end hopo was well nlgli abandoned. Alone and single handed, if accorded ftslr play, bewoold have met every ono of thorn, one at n time, bat there had been no chance for tho exhibition of bravery. Arrived at the tree, John Hatpin acted at prosecutor. John nominated Joke Harmon, shother rattle owner, who was chosen ' and BUI was at onco arraigned, John ' brought tho Indictment to thonotiM conrt as follows: “The prisoner Is brought Iwforc this conrt, charged with stealing cattto from most all on ns and wo demand his con viction and elocution, or proof of Me Inno cence.” . With due gravity, the noting Jndge Lynch Mid: "Prisoner, you have heard the charge against you; what have yen got to say to It?” BUI have say witnesseiP' sha quo- ering of the torches. Advancing to where tho entrance began to widen and near the tree, tbo paused and addressed the const as All ows . “Jake Harmon, what does this maun?” Hannon seemed to wince somewhat before the penotraUng and angry gaze of the girl, end rather doggedly replied: “Wo have tried Bill for catUe stealing, and are going to hang “Did yon hava any witnesses?” said she. Yen, three of them,” said Harmon, pluck ing np n little courage. “To what did they testify?" she naked, ‘To finding tho okins buried, to seeing BiU In that vicinity, and to BUl’a owning np,” arid be, “Did ried. “No, ho couldn't bring any.” “I guess no one could,” remarked Kate ssl caatically, “out of a crowd that had come on purpose to hug him. Bid ho make uy ex planation?” “Yes,” said Harmon In tho same dogged manner as at the ontaet,i“be arid that be nover done it ud that he was drank and in fun when he arid he did.” "Would you consider that a sufficient trial manner which canoed .... bly, and he only mutterod, but about a dozen or tho more courageous members of the crowd spoko up, “I wouldn’t, I wouldn’t," u their kanda sought the hllte of their revolvers. Kate continned: "If after a fair and impartial in vestigation Bill shall bo found guilty, let him suffer the penalty ot tho law,or worae,but if ho is innocent, aa he may be, lor anything you know, I will save you tho reaponaibility of murdering hint to gratify your malice and, I more than suspect screen the guilty ones, who may be In this crowd. Until ho has a fair trial, the tint man who attempts to harm so murk as n hair of his head, will be a dead man, or first pass over my dead body.” There was n mur mur all through tho crowd of “No dangor of that.” “We will ace to that,” etc., but Kata did not bear It. Addressing herself to Frank Warner, the said, “Frank, take your knife and cut that lariat off from his neck and those cords from his hands. Don t you untie o singlo knot, but cut them, so as lo express my con tempt for tho man who placed them there. Perhaps the loss of a valuable horso heir lariat may make him a little more cautious how ho places another around an innocent man's neck; if not, tho courts may teach him caution.” Frank, who had noted tho ebango in the sentiments of tho crowd, had no hositstiou in doing so as ho was hid, and sprang forward with alacrity. Kite then said: “Bill, take uy hone, ride him to tho grove where the hones are tied, select the best none In the lot, ride for your life to Trinidad, surrondor your self tothe sheriff, and await tbo course of tho law. Not a man shall leave this ravine for two houra. and in that time you will be safe from molestation," Bill did as he was told,aud in a sort of dazed way the crowd watched his departure until he was out of sight. After somo momenta old Tommy Roberts, who was near to Kate, raised his bat and said: “Reg pardon, Misa Kate, I would like to address the men.” Thou, turn ing to tho crowd, ho began: “Gentlemen, thoush an old man, I have nover married nor known tho comforta and joys of a homo, but no ono respects and admires femalo grace, pu rity and courage more than I, and I think Miss Ksle is possessed of all of them, and has done a noble thing to-night.” “Bo do I, so do “In , pt those of Jalco Harm John Halpi to-night.” continued Tommy, “to ox* ccuto justice as you supposed, but as Miss Kite nos shown you, you wore making a very poor Job of it. Now I propose that you give her tho nssuraiicra of gentlemen that no harm to Bill ahall be attempted, that you will assist in ferreting out the guilty parties, escort her homo tonight, sod hereafter extend to her tho high regard which her conduct he* shown she deserves. What do you say?” A hearty and unanimous ”ayo,.aye,” was tho response, but some ono notieod that Har mon end Halpin did not vote. The iiueatlon was at once pnt to thorn direct, and they, knowlnj “ and Kat ore tho party could command. Investigation by tho detectives of the “Cat tle Growers’ association” showed that BUI was entirely Innocent, but fastened the guilt so un- mlstakeably on Jsko Harmon and John Hal pin that their arrest followed. 0a tho day sot for tho trial tbo whole population of the local ity of thia occurrence was present. The prose cutor, in an eloquent and well worded speech, asked for tho release of Bill. Ho mentioned tho bravery of Kata and also tho duplicity of Harmon and Halpin. Three two worthies, on bring arraigned, ploeded guilty, knowing how strong the esse wos against thorn and hrping for leniency. The jndge, without limitation, sentenced them to tho full oxtent of tho law, and then with a twinkle in bis eye, sold that the next moot appropriota thing that he could do would bo to marry Misa Kata to the man for whom oho had performed such a heroic service. Tho sheriff, upon csnvssoing among tho crowd, found tho aentiment so strong that ho was able to persuade Kata and Bifl to allow !tho ceremony to bo performed by tho pouri. The official dignity of tbo judge oo Hr relaxed that he did not seek to repress a cheer which greeted this consummation. A lawyer present rooe and asked tbs judge by what right he performed this ceremony end established such a. precedent. “By on Inherent right,” good liumoredly replied ho, and more seriously he coutlnuod, “my only regret is that I have not as good a right to hong there two reprobates, who would hove abed BTli'a blood to screen their own worthless bodies."

A Gnrlons “ kind..*' Hudson vi lle, Misa., April 11.—Editors Con stitution : Heading tho article on fourth page of thia week's paper, headed “In real life," reminds me of a carious “find” that once came under my observation. It was in the spring of I860. 1 was living in a little town in southern Arftansa*, through which ran a dally stage line. At “the" hotel of tho place tho stage stopped for supper and lo change horses. Myself and a young friend of mine boarded at tho hotel. Ono night, just after tho stago had been driven off, we stepped out. In tending to go “up town." Wo had proceeded but a little way when my friend’s foot came In contact with an obstacle. He stooped down aud picked up on old-fashioned pocketbook. Hoplacodlt in his pocket, and we walked on. Nextmornlog he wont to tho newspaper ofilce and inserted an advertise* ment sotting forth the fact that he had found a sum ot money, which owner could havo by prov? tag property, etc. He waited for several months, and no response being had to his advortiment, he Inserted a similar notice In several papers along tho stago line, even as far west as the interior of Texas.

I considered It very strange that no ono ever answered the advertise ments, neither was an advertisement of inquiry ever inserted by the owner, aa for as we know. My •tronoaliion was that some passenger in the stago on re-entering the stage after . _, .ubablo that he was murdered cnowlng him to havo had a largo iuo oi money m his possesion. Tho last I saw of my young friend be still bad the money In safe keeping, never having used a dollar of it except in paying rar the advertising. W.
