Continued from last week

The cry of anguish was emittedby Clubfoot Sue when she dis ¬

covered the captive had escapedSpotted Tail and some of his

were soon in pursuit of

Z 1ibraves girl but she had near¬

hours start and had strugglod on and on in the darknessover fallen trees through tan ¬

t gled vines saw briers and cactusplants until her feet were bruis-ed

¬

f and bleeding and her tenderhands were torn

Finally her strength gave outHuman nature could endure no

> more and climbing to the top ofa small mound she lay there ex ¬

hauntedAnd thus they found her and

carried her back to the camp-

ySpotted Tail saying Ugh Heapbravo squaw Make me goodwife

Inez was once more placed intho hands of the Indian womenand told if she made another at ¬

tempt to escape her life wouldpay the penalty The poor girlwas too thoroughly exhausted to

anythingbutmoan and bewailher Md tate hat there was onetfttaght that filled her with exultatioB and caused he tiredheart to accelerate its speed andthat was somewhere onf the wideplains of Texas Broncho Bill wascamping oh her trarf and thatsouses or later he weuld find andrescue her or die in the attempt

OJ9 fiisweet certainty Was as dear

IIto her as the ruddy drops thatwere then visiting her sad heart

And thus things continued un ¬

til ttio night of the fourth Gay ofher captivity

i On the night in question aboutthe hour of midnight a silent fig

are might have been seen if ithad not been dark stealing alongfrom tree to tree in the directionof tho camp In one hand hecarried a trusty Winchester and

itin his belt was a Spanish stilettoAs he neared the camp he whis ¬

tIed a low peculiar whistle some ¬

thing between the call of a wren> and the chirp of a cricket

A small shapely head in thej tent was quickly raised and held

in a listening position then thet body was slowly and silentlyr withdrawn snake fashion until

sho was clear of tho tentInez had not neglected to wrap

a bear skin around her slender

I form in order to conceal the dia ¬

monds she woreAs she neared the edge of the

clearing a manly form rose infront of her and she was claspedin the strong arms of BroncoWilliam who bore her silentlyand swiftly to the spot whereBrutus was tethered to a swing ¬

ing limb then taking tho bear-skin robe from her dainty formhe cut it in pieces and wrappedand tied them around the feet ofthe noble steed that the fall ofthe hoofbeats might not fall onthe over alert ears of tho sleep ¬

ing savagesWhen the morning dawned

they were far beyond the reachi of the relentless foe and oer the

sun had completed his coursefrom the Occident to tho Orientand was gliding adown the west-ern

¬

horizon as was customarythe happy pair rode up and drewrein in front of tho stately pileof adobe in which Inez first sawthe light of day

r In n reasonable length of timei their nuptials wore celebratedin true western style Bronco

I William was elected justice of

the peace in Mingo county anddeals out even handed justice atsd much per deal Inez is thehappy mother of several smalltowheaded children and delightsin watching them making mudpies on the front door step

And thus we leave them andmurmur as we depart Honi quisort which moans when trans ¬

lated May their shadows nevergrow less

telligence merit and worthIt is said that equal suffrage

would make family discord InColorado our divorce laws arerather easy though stricter thanin the neighboring States butsince 1803 when suffrage wasgranted I have never heard of acase where political differenceswere alleged as a cause of di ¬

Equalsuffrage in my judg ¬

I DOWN IN THE MINES IIAgain arc the deluded follow¬

ers of the U 11 W givencourage by the circulation ofanother one of those monthly re ¬

ports We are going to closedown the mines on the first ofthe month Is it not a wonderthat they dont become tired ofthe same old falsehood whichhas been ringing in their ears forover a year

One of a family of three menwho up to a year ago were happyand prosperous can now be seenloitering along the railroad play-

ing¬

cards ashamed to look hisformer friends in the face thusplainly displaying grief and mor ¬

tification over his own conductof associating with a gang thathas brought poverty to his home

Reports which have becomepublic property indicate that payand rations now issued out to theU M W have got very close tothe vanishing point One youngman while at work for the StBernard Mining Company receiv ¬

ed about as much for two dayswork as he now does in threeweekp which if we are correct ¬

ly informed amounts to thatvast sum of 91 per week notenough to pay for the victuals heeats Yet such is life among theU yws space new officialstook charge and they dress in anup to date style qaal to that ofa prince Somebody has to payfor the fine clothes

While dowa in Christian counrty retentiy we meonechief agitators who seemed to bein high spirits over what he con ¬

sidered the bright prospects forthe miners union The cause ofthis joyful feeling seems to havebeen that one or two of the ma ¬

chine men at Empire had latelybeen induced under false rep¬

resontations of course to quitwork and by that means he hop ¬

ed soon to see the mines closedown but he failed te mentionthe fact that Supt Rutland canfind two good men to take theplace of every one that quits ifho so desires Strange indeed itis how little it takes to cheer oneof those fellows up

Nashville Tenn now has astrike on its hands Thecarpenters union has undertaken todictate terms which to their em ¬

ployers seemed offensive so adetermined stand has been takenagainst them and war againstthe union again declared

Ono foreman said that one daylately he had as many as sixunion men at work for him so itdoes appear that even a dollarper day is now an inducement tothose same fellows who whenworking in the mines could havemae twice that amount butthey say their guardian fails toclothe them and they are forcedto degrade themselves by work ¬

ing for a living

Heart breaking indeed it musthave been for the U M W tohave learned that the St Ber ¬

nard Mining Company still con ¬

tinues to declare their usual an ¬

nual dividend in spite of the factthat they have caused to bo cir¬

culated the report that the mineshero have been losed down forover a year Such knockoutdrops is mojt likely the cause ofa falling off in contributionsWorking people elsewhere wise ¬

ly conclude that unmitigated li-

ars aro unworthy of further sup-

port and a slew process of starv-ation has been decided upon

One of the young prosperousminers at Barnesley last yearconcluded to become a full fledg-

The indirect cause of the deathof a colored miner last week wasindirectly too much red liquoras sometime before the shootinghe was warned of his conditionby a friend who advised him tosober up This good advice wasunheeded and a fatal shooting rscrape ended his earthly career Y

Senator Deboe so rumor goescontemplates soon engaging inthe coal mining business havinglately purchased a large tract ofland in Crittenden county un-
